Chapter 37: Smoking a cigarette

Two more days passed.

Xiaomei came to the office early in the morning, and at this time there were only a few people in the office, and the fat man had not yet arrived.

Recently, a case was closed, and everyone was not too busy.

It's just that recently Lu Cheng asked her and the fat man to check a number, as for what this number is for, where it comes from, the Lu team didn't say much, only said that it was likely to be a group number of network group contact, or what code, let them start from this direction and carry out a carpet search.

Don't let go of any suspicious clues.

This job is not difficult, but the workload is really not small.

After checking for nearly two days, there has been some progress, and Xiaomei is ready to find time to report to Lu Cheng today.

"What about the Marines? Not here yet? "As soon as Lu Cheng arrives at the police station every morning, he will go to their team's office to check whether several of his subordinates have arrived on time.

Normally, at this time, he should be almost there.

Xiaomei didn't care, she turned on the computer on the table, and prepared to report when Lu Cheng arrived.

Sitting in her seat and drinking some water, she got up and went to the bathroom.

When passing through the corridor, Xiaomei accidentally found that the door of Lu Cheng's office was open, it was Lu Cheng's own independent office, if there was no urgent matter for him to deal with on weekdays, he would not sit directly in his office and not say hello to his colleagues in the team.

What's going on today?

Mei approached the door of the office and looked inside.

The curtains were not drawn in the office, the light was dim, Lu Cheng sat in the back chair, his head was lowered, he was not very energetic, and there was something on his fingers.

A smell of smoke wafted out of the door, and Xiaomei outside the door covered her nose with her hand.

Lu Cheng has been having a very strange feeling for the past two days.

He didn't understand, why did he make an explanation, and still there was no feeling of patency?

Since he explained to Shen Ran two days ago, and Shen Ran simply said that he had never misunderstood him, he had always felt a little bored in his heart.

And it's getting stuffy.

As soon as he said it, he still felt a little relaxed, thinking about what he was thinking, and finally had the opportunity to say it.

However, the pleasure didn't last long, and soon, he felt that something was wrong.

At first, he thought that he might be too tired and lacked sleep during this time.

However, when he had everything ready for the night and was about to go to bed early, the feeling of boredom and something wrong suddenly came over him.

"Didn't misunderstand me...... Really, not at all? ”

Once this question popped up in his mind, it could no longer linger, and his brain began to be haunted by the question, occasionally suppressed it, and soon popped up again.

He had to stop pretending to be asleep and exercising, sit quietly, and think about it.

"He really, didn't think about it at all?"

At this time, Lu Cheng began to take out the first cigarette in so long.

Fortunately, Lu Cheng has moved out of the house and lives alone, otherwise this cigarette will definitely be snuffed out by his mother.

He is also very self-disciplined.

To be honest, at that time, Shen Ran simply turned his head and denied his idea, telling him that he had not misunderstood. He knew he needed to breathe a sigh of relief.

However, this does not seem to be the case.

He was surprised at first, and that surprise lasted until the end of the conversation.

After Shen Ran left, his feelings changed a little.

It's just that at that time, he didn't particularly notice it, and he realized it later.

It wasn't until I returned home that I felt more and more wrong and uncomfortable.

This aberrations continued into this morning.

Looking at this momentum, there is no intention of subsidence.

Xiaomei cleared the clouds and broke into the smoky office alone.

After entering the door, she raised her hand and fanned the air around her nose, only to find that Lu Cheng was smoking, and the window was not opened, no wonder the air was so bad, and it was very dim, she almost thought that it was on fire inside, and was ready to come in and carry the Lu team out of the fire.

"Marine, what are you doing?"

Seeing Xiaomei come in, Lu Cheng reacted, and he snuffed out the cigarette in his hand. Casually replied, "Oh, nothing, smoke a cigarette here." Can I help you? ”

"Smoke, a cigarette?" Xiaomei asked, pointing to a pile of cigarette butts in the ashtray.

"Ah, it's just a little irritable."

Irritability...... Could it be that the eldest aunt is really here?

"Uh, is it related to Mr. Shen?" Xiaomei asked tremblingly.

Lu Cheng heard Xiaomei suddenly say Shen Ran's name, and suddenly raised his head: "How do you know?" ”

"Because the aunt ......", before the word "husband" was spoken, Xiaomei stopped talking. "Guess, guess." She hastened to add a sentence.

"Oh, nothing, don't guess. Is there something you came to me for? ”

"I want to report on that string of numbers......" Before she finished speaking, Xiaomei saw Lu Cheng light another cigarette.

"Marine...... Are you arguing? Xiaomei's attention couldn't help but ask again.

"Report to you, don't worry too much." Finally, Lu Cheng snuffed out the cigarette butt, turned around and opened the curtain, and the window was also opened. A burst of fresh air blows in from outside. Taking a deep breath, Mei felt the joy of being reborn.

"Okay, I'll report back to you!"

……

Walking out of Lu Cheng's office, Xiaomei was still thinking about the conversation with Lu Cheng just now.

She had never seen Lu Cheng like this.

If there is anything different about him than before, it seems that he can't say anything, nothing more than a few more cigarettes. But Mei's instinct told her that something wasn't right.

His office is filled with a ...... Something is wrong with the atmosphere.

"yes, that's not right!"

"Tongue twisters, what's wrong?" Xiaomei sat at the workstation and pondered, and the fat man came over.

"Shh Mei turned around and made a silent gesture towards him. "It's the boss......

"Shhhhhhhh Before Xiaomei finished speaking, she heard Ding Yi's voice coming from the other end.

Yes, this one on the left and one on the right, Xiaomei knows that it is unlikely that this gossip will not spread today.

"You two," Xiaomei stretched out two fingers and pointed directly at the two of them, and said solemnly, "Don't go out and talk nonsense!" ”

"That's for sure."

"Who are we going to talk to?"

The two of them expressed their positions one after another, Xiaomei was a little relieved, thinking about it, they gossip about the duo, the core members of the group are her and the fat man, and now add Ding Yi, they are all their own people who can be trusted.

Except between the two of them, there must not be a fourth person to share a topic of this level.

Xiaomei stopped inking anymore and quickly pulled them to sit down.

"Something is wrong, boss." Xiaomei said meaningfully, and then told him about smoking alone in the office.

"Hey, what do I think, our boss smokes a few cigarettes, our boss can do whatever he wants, he just wants to smoke cigars, smoke oil ......"

Xiaomei slapped him on the head: "What do you say!" The Boss isn't crazy yet. ”

"No, it's not true." After listening to Xiaomei's description, Ding Yi muttered something.

"What's wrong?" Xiaomei asked.

"You're right, there's something really wrong with the boss. He actually broke through his three principles of life. Ding raised a finger, swore an oath, and said mysteriously.

"What's that? What are the three principles of life? The fat man was puzzled.

"I don't know. According to my observation, our boss has always followed the principle of three noes, which is the bottom line of his life, and he relies on these three principles to strive to achieve the transformation from a straight man to a high-quality man. Ding Yiyi looked in reverence.

"What the hell? How did we not know? Xiaomei and the fat man stared at him dumbfounded.

Ding Yi raised his straight finger again, "First, don't smoke more than three cigarettes a day. ”

Xiaomei and the fat man looked at each other, "Does the boss have this principle?" ”

Thinking about it, he really didn't see the Lu team smoking, he always stayed up late to work overtime, and when he was worried, he pushed away the smoke in the office and advised everyone to smoke less, and at most he lit a cigarette or two to refresh himself.

"Really." The fat man said.

Ding Yi frowned even more and said: "The second and third rules are to remember the appearance of at least three women every day, and not to be cheated by the same teammate more than three times on the same day. ”

Xiaomei wanted to vomit as soon as she heard the second one, is it so exaggerated?

But thinking about his strength when he went on a blind date, it really doesn't have to be.

Xiao Li Xiaoli was stupid and couldn't tell the difference, and even she, a subordinate, was almost not famous.

"It needs to be remembered, and it does need to be remembered." Xiaomei nodded in agreement.

"The last one is true, I've been kicked by him." The fat man also admitted with a twist.

"Tut-tut," Ding Yi pointed at the fat man, and then said proudly, "Look, what I said is true." This is the iron law of his life, otherwise how do you think a high-quality single man with a high rank like the boss is refined? ”

"The rank is quite high...... "The fat man was stunned by what he said.

"Wait, what are you trying to illustrate by saying this? Is it important? "It's still Xiaomei's sober mind.

"Why don't you understand?" Ding Yi stomped his feet one by one, looking anxious that he couldn't teach, he lifted the frame on the bridge of his nose, approached the two and said, "Something happened to the boss......

After Xiaomei left, Lu Cheng sorted out all the information they had now and dialed Shen Ran's number.

"Hey." It was still a quiet voice.

"Ahem, it's me. We've checked that number for you. I haven't found any specific groups or organizations that exist, but there is some information that you might want to know. ”

"Oh? Great work. ”

"That's right. First of all, you can check the domestic social media first, and there is no group with this number. We went back to the web chat sites and tools to find the record of this number string, and it turned out that this number was probably a group number that existed in the past. Only later revoked.

It took two days for the detectives to try to fix the group's records.

In the end, only part of the information about the group owner was restored, as well as the location where the group owner had landed.

When the group was established, the ID card information was not used, and the IP address showed that the group owner's login address was in Zhuzhou.

"Zhuzhou?" Hearing these two words, Shen Ran immediately asked rhetorically.

Lu Cheng could clearly feel that Shen Ran's tone was very different from before, "Yes, Zhuzhou, it is Zhuzhou in Guangdong Province." ”

"It's the little coastal town, right?"

"Yes. Did you think of something? ”

Shen Ran wanted to say that he thought of his father.

He paused, and then said, "Someone I know, right there." ”
