Chapter 16 A Lifetime of Wealth
The situation was in crisis, I immediately took out my mobile phone, prepared to call Fang Yuan to report, and asked Xie Xin'an with my eyes: Is it okay?
Xie Xin'an nestled back into the sofa and shrugged his shoulders to let me feel free.
Fang Yuan may have gone to make up for sleep, he slept too hard, and he didn't answer, I was afraid of delay, so I had to call another patrolman.
When I went to pick up the second corpse (Zhao Xi) last night, the patrolman who was in charge of the scene treated me more "respectfully" and took the initiative to exchange phone calls with me.
But what is his name, I forgot, so I had to look through the phone address book, find the newly added unfamiliar name, and find him, Liu Feng.
"Sir Liu, I'm Wu Fu......" I told Liu Feng about Xie Xin'an's analysis in a loud voice, he attached great importance to it, and it was true that the people in the five-star square had been withdrawn, but he said that he would immediately send someone back to guard it.
I had an idea: "Sir Liu, I have an idea, I don't know if it's mature." ”
"Speak, please." Liu Feng looks like he is in his fifties, but he is very polite to me, a hairy guy, he should be the face of the hearse he drove me, or perhaps, he knows a little bit about the people and things behind the hearse - for example, the yin cha sitting opposite me, there is no doubt that now, I am already Xie Xin'an's "colleague".
"I think instead of sending someone to guard the square and prevent the murderer from committing the crime, it is better to send someone to keep an eye on the square and wait for the murderer to appear, and then arrest him." I said what I thought.
"Haha, it's worthy of a white ...... Xiao Wu, if you don't come to patrol and arrest, it's really a loss for our criminal arrest team," Liu Feng said with a smile, "I'll set up a working group, keep an eye on the square 24 hours a day, and wait for the rabbit according to the method you said!" ”
"Hmm." I hung up the phone, enough was just said, after all, it was tolerance, I couldn't get involved too much.
Putting down the phone, I breathed a long sigh of relief, took a sip of coffee, to be honest, the taste is average, in my opinion, it is not as good as the 1.5 yuan bag of instant Nestle.
When I called, Xie Xin'an kept curling up in the sofa and playing with her mobile phone, looking at the posture of her hands, as if she was playing with the king of pesticides.
"Finished?" She suddenly looked up and asked me.
"Aang."
Xie Xin'an pulled off his headphones and put down his phone: "Benge thought of something just now, last night, did you get any benefits?" ”
"Benefits?" I thought about it, no, does it count if you have shaken a small hand with Fang Yuan?
Xie Xin'an put his feet down, stepped on the ground, and sat upright: "This pavilion met Lord Liao from the Finance Department of the Prefecture last night to pick up his daughter. ”
"Lord Liao...... Liao Xin's father? I guessed that he was also an "adult", what division?
"Exactly, Lord Liao said that you helped his daughter collect the broken body, and he was very grateful, and asked Benge to help you exchange a check from the underworld."
With a confused expression, I took out the check that had been crumpled by me, is this a check from the underworld? The young lady of the bank has already admitted that it is their check, but it has expired.
But when I unfolded the check, I found that the handwriting and pattern on it had changed!
The picture is very exquisite, colorful, with the top written "Hot Summer Bank Cash Check", the middle is the amount, it is still 1 million, but the unit is not yuan, but a word I don't know, similar to "Dan", the lower left corner is stamped with a green seal, and the lower right corner is the signature of the owner of the check - Liao Kaishen.
"Fog grass!" Xie Xin'an took the check from my hand, and when he saw the amount, his face was pale, "Lord Liao is really generous to you!" The annual income of this pavilion is only 1 million! ”
"Can it be exchanged for RMB?" I asked eagerly, and added, "If you can help with this, I will pay half of my filial piety!" ”
"What's so embarrassing! Thanks! Xie Xin'an smiled coquettishly, and actually ignored the prestige of the Yin Cha Lord, and kissed the check very frivolously, but she didn't expect her to look so cold and unreasonable, but she was a greedy ghost who saw money.
"Yes...... How much RMB can I exchange? "I asked again, don't say that I can only exchange 100 yuan, then I can be generous, and give it all to Lord Bai, but it shouldn't be, isn't her official quite big, so big official, the annual salary can't be only 100 yuan.
"Wait a minute, this pavilion will check today's yin and yang exchange rate." Xie Xin'an tinkered with his phone for a while, finished calculating, and showed me the screen.
I've never seen this kind of web interface, and the bells and whistles may be a dedicated web page for the underworld.
“620…… Ten thousand! RMB? "I was surprised, I didn't expect the exchange rate of the Stygian Coin to be so high, comparable to a U.S. knife.
Xie Xin'an smiled, took out a soft-tip pen from the pen holder on the table, bit off the cap with his small mouth, stamped the position in the lower left corner of the check, signed his name, and then handed the check to me: "Go to the ICBC next to the second courtyard and find a manager named Chu Ci, she will help you convert it into RMB." ”
"Thank you! Thank you, sir! "I took the check in a fart, but I didn't expect that there would be such a big windfall from making an appointment with her for coffee!
"Redeem it, don't forget to share half of the pavilion!" Xie Xin'an is right, but I think it's worth it, if she doesn't help me with this, then this check is a piece of waste paper on me.
"Do you want renminbi too?" I asked, she didn't say it was all exchanged, or if she left her half of the check limit.
"This pavilion patrols the Yang Realm all year round, what do you use without RMB? You go, and if you don't have the house when you come back, you just leave the money at the front desk of the café. Xie Xin'an continued to bow her head and play with her mobile phone while telling me, as if she didn't care about the money, obviously her eyes were green when she heard such a large amount just now!
Compared to the homicide case in charge of the patrol, this is my big deal, I got up to say goodbye, out of the private room, quickly downstairs, to the first floor, the pair of non-human mother and son in the platform have disappeared, the hall is empty, only the little beauty with chopsticks legs sat at the front desk, smiled at me and said: "My lord, let's go, welcome to come again." ”
Why did I become an adult too? I think it may be that people over there in the underworld have an honorific title for others, just like in the human world, but anyone with a little status will be respectfully called "teacher" by others, even if he is a pedicure.
Out of the café door, I didn't realize it at first, but when I walked to the hearse, I found that the sun was shining outside, the ground was dry and dry, and there was no trace of rain, and the ghosts in the rain that I saw in the window on the second floor before were also gone, and the street was still deserted, and I could only see a few funeral supply store operators.
What I saw just now was all an illusion?
I looked back at the café and was completely confused, how did the café become a one-story bungalow?
Could it be that just now, Xie Xin'an and I were drinking coffee on the roof......
