Baixian Residence in Beiping City.

When the sky is full of red clouds, this place is already hard to find.

If you want to come back to eat, you can only queue up outside first, or go to another house.

Its business is booming, which can be seen.

In a private room.

Chu Mufeng and Cao Yunshan were already talking and laughing, in addition to the two senior brothers, there were also Su Tianyou and several other people who had been following Chu Mufeng.

Tonight's dinner was hosted by Su Tianyou, and Chu Mufeng came forward to invite.

Cao Yunshan naturally knew Chu Mufeng's thoughts, which was nothing more than to find a backbone for Su Tianyou and the others.

Of course, Zi Wushuang also followed.

As for her identity, Chu Mufeng only said that she was a cousin, and she didn't explain much, and everyone naturally had their own understanding.

A meal that was enjoyable.

After the halfway round, someone suddenly knocked on the door, Chu Mufeng was a little surprised, and when he saw who came in, there was a hint of confusion between his eyebrows. But when he saw who was following this person again, he suddenly realized.

The man in front was a man in his thirties, with a good skin, a looming red mole at the center of his eyebrows, and a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

Who is he?

He is Qiao Donghai, the newly appointed director of the Criminal Investigation Department.

Chu Mufeng didn't know who he was, but he knew Tian Hengqi and Huang Dafeng, who came in behind Qiao Donghai, and it was not Qiao Donghai who could make these two people follow.

This is indeed the case.

"Director, he is Qiao Donghai." Su Tianyou whispered the moment the door opened.

Chu Mufeng looked calm and sat firmly on the Diaoyutai platform.

"Director Cao, I'm eating next door, I heard that you are here, so I said come and toast you with a glass of wine!" Qiao Donghai raised his wine glass with a smile and said quite enthusiastically.

"Donghai, you have a heart!" Cao Yunshan nodded and said lightly.

"Yes, I'll do it first, you are free."

Qiao Donghai said that he drank the wine in the cup as soon as he raised his neck, and then quickly poured it on Huang Dafeng next to him, but when he poured the wine, a touch of inadvertent embarrassment flashed on his face.

After all, it was Chu Mufeng who was sitting in front, his former boss.

"This should be Inspector Chu Mufeng, right?" Qiao Donghai stood in front of the dining table, holding a second glass of wine and asked with a smile.

"You are?"

Seeing that Qiao Donghai had found him, Chu Mufeng raised his eyelids and asked indifferently, not taking Qiao Donghai's smile seriously at all.

Like him, Chu Mufeng has seen a lot, so he doesn't have to care about it at all.

"I am?"

Unexpectedly, Qiao Donghai, who was questioned like this, couldn't help laughing, pointed to his nose and said, "Inspector Chu, don't you really know who I am?" ”

"I took your place, oh, no, wrong, you were just a deputy director at the time, and now I am a legitimate director, how can I say that I have taken over your position?"

Seeing Qiao Donghai's rather flamboyant appearance, Cao Yunshan's face was slightly gloomy.

Su Tianyou was also dissatisfied.

"So what?"

Chu Mufeng, who looked calm, stroked the teacup and asked.

"Oh, I just came here to meet you. It is said that when you were in the Beiping Garrison Department, you were a master at catching spies, so you have long wanted to see and understand. ”

"Inspector Chu, since you have come to Beiping, as a landlord, I want to toast you!" Qiao Donghai raised his glass and said.

"I'm quitting drinking." Chu Mufeng said lightly.

"Quit drinking? How can a big man not drink? ”

Qiao Donghai glanced at the wine glass placed in front of Chu Mufeng, frowned and said, "Inspector Chu, you won't give face, right?" ”

"Obviously you have a wine glass, how can you quit drinking, what's the matter, you look down on me Qiao Donghai? Don't you think I deserve to drink this glass with you? ”

"I said I quit drinking." Chu Mufeng still had that cold expression.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the box was about to stiffen, Cao Yunshan waved his hand and said, "Okay, Donghai, you have also toasted the wine that should be toasted, go back and eat your meal." ”

"Okay, I'll listen to Director Cao, go back."

Qiao Donghai stared at Chu Mufeng, and said with a smile: "Inspector Chu, we can't see the mountains and water, I'll have a drink with you another day." ”

After speaking, Qiao Donghai left directly.

Tian Hengqi and Huang Dafeng greeted everyone inside and left rather embarrassed.

When it was quiet again, Cao Yunshan looked at Chu Mufeng and said, "Mufeng, why are you doing this? There's no need to be so stiff, right? ”

"Senior brother, I don't want to do this either, but you see it, right? He, Qiao Donghai, obviously came to give me a toast on purpose, what did he say to toast you, did he toast like this? ”

"Forget it if you come uninvited, you still brought Tian Hengqi and Huang Dafeng over, what's the matter, do you think I left Beiping City, so I brought Yaowu to show off my might?"

Chu Mufeng calmly and clearly expressed his attitude.

He just wanted Cao Yunshan to know his true thoughts.

In officialdom, if you can't clearly set up your own benchmark, giving people the impression of ambiguity and mud, then don't think about going long-term.

And some of the words are not the right occasion, otherwise he really wants to have a good chat with Cao Yunshan.

Senior brother, until now, you are only a deputy director, and even your deputy director was obtained because of my merits, haven't you thought about the reason?

The teacher said that among his disciples, you are the most upright in your work, what is Zhongzheng?

The balance of the golden mean is the right, you like to do things steadily, this is your strength, but sometimes it is also your disadvantage.

Take Qiao Donghai's case as an example, if you are in the Criminal Investigation Department of the Garrison Department and express your support for Su Tianyou, will they be suppressed?

You think my attitude was rude, but don't you want to think about why I did that?

A Qiao Donghai who desperately suppressed my people, I need to greet him with a smile?

A Qiao Donghai who obliterated the majesty I left behind, is it worth me to raise my glass?

Senior brother, everything has a result, there must be a cause.

"Mu Feng, this Qiao Donghai also has a way to come, his roots are in the military, otherwise he would not be so polite to him."

Cao Yunshan knew that Chu Mufeng had a resentment in his heart, after all, whoever saw his former subordinates working hard would be unhappy if they were so unsatisfactory.

"The military?"

Chu Mufeng just smiled, but he didn't have any fear.

"You!"

Cao Yunshan saw Chu Mufeng like this, so he didn't mean to talk much, he explained this matter in place, as for how it will develop next, it depends on Chu Mufeng's thoughts.

Of course, if Qiao Donghai had to find trouble, then Cao Yunshan would not let it go, even if he did things in a mediocre way, he would support Chu Mufeng.

This will Su Tianyou, Song Dabao and Wang Gezhi are quite excited.

They naturally understood that Chu Mufeng didn't need to come against Qiao Donghai, but now he came against him.

What does this mean? It shows that Chu Mufeng is thinking about them and coming out for them.

Can you not be impressed?

Dare not to serve your life?

If it weren't for the fact that they all had families, I really wanted to be like Pei Dongchang and the three, so I followed Chu Mufeng to Jinling City without hesitation!

With such a responsible boss, you will have the energy to do things!

"Senior brother, I am in Jinling now, Lao Wang and a few of them have to bother you to take care of them more, they don't do well, they should be punished, but they haven't done anything wrong, they can't let them be wronged and bullied!"

"Then, I'll toast you for them."

Chu Mufeng picked up his wine glass and said.

"Mu Feng, don't worry, I will!" Cao Yunshan made a clear statement publicly for the first time.

"Thank you, brother!"

Chu Mufeng glanced over, and Su Tianyou and the three of them also raised their glasses: "Thank you, Director!" ”

And they all drank it all.

Skip this topic and continue to drink and talk.

Almost half an hour later, the banquet was over, Cao Yunshan was ready to go back, and Chu Mufeng naturally had no reason to stay.

Just as they were about to leave, there was a sudden commotion outside.

There was a familiar voice from Chu Mufeng.

It's a weasel!

Ahem, it's Huang Shilang!

This guy sounds very excited, what's going on? Could it be that he can't make trouble with people outside?

However, according to Huang Shilang's style of talking to people when he sees people, and talking about ghosts when he sees ghosts, it is impossible to offend people, right?

"It's Huang Shilang, senior brother, let's go and take a look, so that he won't lose face in our garrison." Chu Mufeng couldn't help but say.

"Good!"

In the box next door, the door was wide open, and there were several people standing outside the door watching the excitement.

The people who were arguing inside were Qiao Donghai and Huang Shilang.

At this time, Huang Shilang still has the usual appearance of a jack-of-all-trades, like a plucked rooster, staring at Qiao Donghai with blood-red eyes.

"Qiao Donghai, how can you cheat?"

"Fraud?"

Qiao Donghai sat on the chair leisurely and said slowly: "Huang Shilang, everyone calls you a weasel, I think it's really worthy of the name." ”

"Tell me why you're such a weasel? It's clear that you lost, and you don't want to admit it, so you have to dwell on this here, is it interesting? You say I'm cheating, show evidence! ”

"Evidence, the dice you used are not the same as the ones I used just now, they are manipulative!"

Huang Shilang stared at him with a fierce look in his eyes, gritted his teeth and said: "Qiao Donghai, for the sake of our colleagues, that's why I want to calm things down, but if you say that you have to tear your face, I, Huang Shilang, am not afraid of you!" ”

"Hehe, tear your face?"

Qiao Donghai waved the IOU in his hand and said: "I said weasel, we signed the IOU, it is clearly written in black and white, if you dare not admit it, I will sue you!" ”

"You!"

Huang Shilang suddenly became angry.

Why am I blinded by lard, where can I not find someone to borrow money, why should I borrow from Qiao Donghai, who is not a thing?

"Brother Huang!"

Just when Huang Shilang was anxious, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

Huang Shilang turned around abruptly.

"Ah, Brother Chu, it's really you! I thought I misheard that! ”

"Why, when did you come back, why don't you say a word!"

Huang Shilang shouted excitedly after seeing Chu Mufeng.

Chu Mufeng raised his eyebrows and glanced over, "Brother Huang, who are you?" ”

"Hey, don't mention it!"

Huang Shilang pulled Chu Mufeng to the side and said in a low voice: "Your brother and I have recently encountered a trouble, and we need some money for emergencies, this is not when you want to eat here tonight and want to find a way, who wants to run into Qiao Donghai." ”

"He didn't know where he heard that I was in dire need of money, so he asked me to write down an IOU and told me to play dice."

"Then I had an itchy hand, played a few games, and lost all my money, and after I lost, I realized that something was wrong, there was something wrong with his dice."

"Isn't this a quarrel, I didn't expect your brother to eat next door, I knew that I wouldn't bother your Yaxing!"

"Hehe, it's been two days since I came back, Brother Huang, you can tell me if you need money, I'll help you solve it, there's no need to gamble with someone like him." Chu Mufeng said lightly.

"Alas, Brother Chu, you don't know, I'm really trapped, and they were still talking about you just now, saying that you are not as good as him Qiao Donghai."

"You said that I could not agree when I heard that, so I want to win them well and fight for face!" The moment Huang Shilang said this, a touch of coldness flashed in Chu Mufeng's eyes.

Qiao Donghai, are you annoyed and angry after being swept away by me just now?

Knowing that the relationship between Huang Shilang and me is not bad, so he deliberately set up a trick?

"I said what are you two muttering over there, is there anything you can't say in front of the big guy?"

"Inspector Chu, if you say that you want to pay the debt for the weasel, no problem, come on, do you dare to gamble with me?"

Qiao Donghai was worried that he couldn't find Chu Mufeng's trouble, and when he saw him coming in and meddling in his affairs, he immediately waved his hand and shouted.

"Bet with you? What do you want to bet on? ”

Chu Mufeng glanced at the other party and said lightly.

"Brother Chu, this guy will be out of the way, he can't play!" Huang Shilang hurriedly said.

"Don't worry, it's okay!"

Chu Mufeng shook his head at Huang Shilang, then walked over directly, looked at Qiao Donghai and said, "Qiao Donghai, what color can you come up with?" ”

"It's okay if you want me to gamble with you, but if your lottery is not good enough, I won't just end up casually!"

"Okay, then what do you say is enough to be graded?"

As if he was afraid that Chu Mufeng would not agree, Qiao Donghai immediately asked.

"Brother Huang, how much did you just lose?" Chu Mufeng asked sideways.

"A thousand fiat!" Huang Shilang raised a finger.

"A thousand fiat?"

Chu Mufeng shook his head and said: "This mere 1,000 fiat currency is not enough for me to end up, Brother Huang, I didn't say you, why do you look down on our director so much, with his identity, he will have to pay 20,000 US dollars!" ”

What, twenty thousand dollars!

My good boy.

Everyone was shocked when they heard this number, if anyone had 20,000 dollars this year, he was already a proper rich man, as long as he didn't get into any bad habits, he couldn't spend it all in his life.

Cao Yunshan's eyes couldn't help flashing a hint of narrowness.

Zi Wushuang looked at the other party with interest.

Su Tianyou and the others were silent.

Qiao Donghai's eyelids twitched slightly when he heard this number, and he couldn't help but swallow his saliva!

The surname Chu, can you not be so arrogant?

That's $20,000! Are you supposed to be a piece of papyrus?

Do you have that much money? You're just the deputy director of the Garrison Department, even if you have enough oil and water in Jinling City, you can't make money like this, right?

Besides, do you know what to bet on?

"Why, don't dare? If you don't dare, Director Qiao will take that IOU, you don't have the face to take it, right? Chu Mufeng glanced over and said lightly.

"Who said I wouldn't dare!"

When Qiao Donghai heard this, his already red face turned even redder, and he shouted with his neck stalked: "Is there anything else that I Qiao Donghai dare not do?" ”

"Hmph, isn't it 20,000 US dollars? Okay, I'll bet with you! But first, what do you want to bet on? ”

"What do you say?" Chu Mufeng asked calmly.

"Bet on martial arts!"

A look of pride appeared at the corner of Qiao Donghai's mouth, and when he looked at Chu Mufeng, a gloomy and cold light appeared in his eyes.

"Since we are all engaged in criminal investigation, what kind of dice do we play, if we want to gamble, we have to gamble on those who have the ability, martial arts, whoever lies down first will lose, do you dare?"

Fistfight?

The corners of Chu Mufeng's mouth curled and said: "It seems that you are very confident in your skills, since this is the case, it will be as you wish, isn't it just a comparison?" Cheng, I'll bet with you. ”

"But Qiao Donghai, are you sure you can get 20,000 US dollars?"

"If you can't get it, I'll give you an IOU!" Qiao Donghai said fiercely.

"Okay, today we will make a bet in front of Director Cao and in front of everyone. If I lose, $20,000 will be given in both hands immediately! If you lose, you'll have to give me the money!" ”

"If you can't get the money, borrow money from me, and if you can't borrow money, you can mortgage things! If the mortgage is not enough, give me an IOU! Chu Mufeng said word by word.

"Okay!"

Qiao Donghai replied in a rough voice, but his eyes looked at Chu Mufeng with a little disdain.

Hehe, Chu Mufeng, is your small body enough to play with me? It's not enough to plug your teeth, right?

You don't know my bottom line, so you dare to be so unscrupulous, right? Lao Tzu has been in the army, has been on the battlefield and killed people, but he has learned the art of killing.

If I defeat you today, I'll kill two birds with one stone.

At that time, my prestige in the Criminal Investigation Department will be completely established, and the prestige that you Chu Mufeng left behind at that time will be wiped out in one fell swoop.

Come on!

Crash!

Everyone quickly packed up the tables, chairs and benches in the room and made room for it.

Taking advantage of this time, Cao Yunshan asked in a low voice, "Mu Feng, are you sure?" ”

"Senior brother, don't you believe me?" Chu Mufeng said with a smile.

"It's not that I don't believe you, but you may not know, this Qiao Donghai's fighting skills can be ranked in the forefront of our criminal investigation department, you must not underestimate the enemy, I'm afraid that in case ......"

"Senior brother, there's nothing in case, the words have already been said for this part, then you will only know after the fight!"

Chu Mufeng smiled indifferently, took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves, walked forward, looked at Qiao Donghai who turned his head and kicked his legs opposite, raised his hand and beckoned with his right hand.

"Come on! Let me see how powerful you are as the new director of the Criminal Investigation Division! ”

Bastard, don't you pretend to be dead?

Looking at Chu Mufeng's confident appearance, Qiao Donghai's eyes flashed with a fierce light.

He bowed slightly, his arms were hooked, his upper body shook slightly back and forth, and the whole person seemed to have turned into a huge mantis, and what he cast was an authentic mantis fist.

The hands are like blades, swaying up and down, ready to attack and hunt.

Chu Mufeng stood in place, not moving.

Now is the time.

Qiao Donghai saw an opportunity, suddenly exerted his strength with both feet, kicked to the ground, and then his body was like a gust of wind, directly pounced in front of Chu Mufeng, and smashed Chu Mufeng's head with both hands.

If you get hit, don't think about it!

"Bang!"

However, the imaginary scene of Chu Mufeng being hit did not happen, and even no one saw it clearly, Qiao Donghai flew out directly upside down like a kite with a broken string, and after crashing into the table, chair and bench stacked next to him, he fell to the ground with a bang.

Thunderbolt Bala!

The tables fell apart on the spot.

The audience was silent.

Everyone looked at it with astonishment and surprise in their eyes.

Huang Dafeng and Tian Hengqi were even more dumbfounded, they had seen with their own eyes how powerful this new director was, at least the two of them couldn't beat it together.

But now?

didn't even have a face, and was kicked away by Chu Mufeng, embarrassed!

Spike!

That's tough, isn't it?

"So fierce?"

Cao Yunshan didn't expect that his little junior brother was so good: he could solve it with one kick!

This huge gap made his eyes look at Qiao Donghai with a deep suspicion, are you sure you're not here to be funny? Didn't you come to cooperate with Chu Mufeng to act?

"I've won, right?" Chu Mufeng stood in place with his hands behind his back, looked at Qiao Donghai who was lying in the corner and asked calmly.

"Director Joe!"

Tian Hengqi hurriedly stepped forward and asked in a low voice, and he was about to support him as he spoke.

"Hey, Lao Tian, there is no result yet, what do you want to do?" Su Tianyou said loudly.

"I ......"

It was when these words were asked, Tian Hengqi stood on the ground awkwardly.

"What, do you still want to fight?"

Seeing that the other party was silent, Chu Mufeng took a step forward and asked.

"I ......"

Qiao Donghai struggled and was about to refute, but when he opened his mouth, he couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of old blood, and the pain in his chest suddenly burst out like a mountain of seas.

However, looking at it, he knew that he was not lightly injured and could not move again, otherwise the end would only be more ugly.

"Throw in the towel?" Chu Mufeng walked step by step and asked condescendingly.

"Recognize!"

Qiao Donghai lowered his head unwillingly, bit his lip and shouted aggrievedly.

He was afraid that as long as he dared to say the word "no", Chu Mufeng would continue to be ruthless, and he would be abolished if he didn't do well.

"Say it sooner!"

Chu Mufeng chuckled, raised his hand and said, "God bless, bring the pen and paper over, let him make the IOU first!" ”

"Qiao Donghai, you have listened carefully to me, it is best to gather the money for me tomorrow and hand it over to Su Tianyou."

"God bless, if he makes up for it, the rest will have to be marked with an IOU, remember to charge interest according to the standard in the market."

"Yes!" Su Tianyou responded excitedly, he was not afraid of this director.

"That's it!"

Chu Mufeng picked up the IOU as he said and tore it up in front of everyone.

"I almost forgot, there's still a fiat currency debt here, why didn't I count it just now, okay. God bless, you can delete this money for Qiao Donghai, we have to pay attention to fairness and justice! ”

"Director, I see!" Su Tianyou said with a smile.

"By the way, I almost forgot to remind you!"

When Chu Mufeng turned around and was about to leave, he suddenly stopped, pointed at the other party and said, "Since you know that I am an inspector arranged by the Police Department of the Ministry of the Interior, so don't think about playing tricks, otherwise the Heavenly King and Lao Tzu will not be able to save you!" ”
