Chapter 218: Self-inflicted
The next thing to do is to wait patiently for the results, but what will he do when the results are out? Gu Song really hoped that someone would be around to help him come up with ideas at this time, but at the same time, he didn't want anyone to interfere with his plans.
Perhaps, I am doing something that deviates from professional ethics or even what the law does not allow, but what can I do? Gu Song thought helplessly. He had already watched Shen Hang escape from him twice, and no matter what, there could be no third time. Even if he uses unconventional means, even if doing so means that someone will be innocently implicated, he must lure Shen Hang and Miss M out and completely end the grievances between them.
Walking in the courtyard of the city bureau, Gu Song thought about his thoughts all the way. In normal times, with his beastly vigilance, it would have been almost impossible to sneak up on him from behind. But today, he really doesn't have the extra energy to pay attention to the things around him. He almost jumped in fright when a large, warm and powerful hand suddenly grabbed his shoulder.
"Who?" He grabbed the man's hand, quickly turned around, and saw a familiar face appear in front of him. "Summer time, how could it be you?"
Xia Shi smiled faintly, and said hello to Gu Song. "Look at your absent-mindedness, what are you thinking? I've been following you for a long time, and you haven't noticed me. ”
"It's nothing...... Gu Song frowned unhappily, and quickly changed the topic and asked, "When did you come back?" ”
"Yesterday afternoon." Xia Shi replied with emotion, "After living in the deep mountains and old forests for more than 20 days, I still feel that the life in the city is comfortable!" ”
"Cut, of course your pampered young master can't endure those hardships." Gu Song pursed his lips and said in a sarcastic tone. "After going out for so long, you didn't cause Zhong Xin any trouble, right? He has to carry out tasks again, and he has to take care of you, the oil bottle, and he must be very tired. ”
"What do you say?" Xia Shi shoved Gu Song's chest violently, and shot back angrily, "I'm not as wasteful as you say, right?" Although I can't adapt to the harsh environment in the mountains, I went to that hellish place for you to venture out anyway. If you don't thank me, forget it, why did you sneer at me as soon as we met. ”
"Haha, I'm just kidding, why are you angry." Gu Song was amused by Xia Shi's more genuine appearance. Seriously, since he had an inexplicable relationship with He Weiqi, he hasn't laughed sincerely for several days. Now facing his rivals, he rarely feels relieved, and his mood seems to have improved a lot. Although he didn't want to say it explicitly, he had to admit in his heart that he and Xia Shi had indeed become friends, and they were the kind of friends who could share life and death and weal and woe. Maybe......
No, Gu Song stopped a certain thought in his heart in time. He couldn't waver, he couldn't ask for help from the person in front of him, even if he believed that the other party could do anything for him, he was determined to deal with that trouble alone.
After a moment of silence, Xia Shi looked at his watch and said, "It's not early, let's go have a meal together." ”
Hearing this, Gu Song showed a surprised expression, if he remembered correctly, this should be the first time that the two of them have known each other for so many years, and Xia Shi took the initiative to invite him to dinner. "What kind of wind is blowing today? You'd offer to eat with me? ”
"The main thing is that Brother Xin wants to see you." Xia Shi was afraid that Gu Song would misunderstand something, so he hurriedly explained. "I know that the incident over there in Liangshan has dealt you a lot of blows, but there are some things that you can't escape. The problems of the organization need to be solved, and the grievances between you and Shen Hang also need to be resolved. I think it's time for a couple of us to sit down and have a good chat. ”
"Okay then." Gu Song immediately agreed. Although he already had a general understanding of what was happening in Liangshan, he still wanted to ask Zhong Xin some questions.
Ten minutes later, Gu Song and Xia Shi sat down in a small private room of a Cantonese restaurant near the city bureau. The grade of this restaurant is very high, and the consumption level is far beyond the acceptable range of ordinary people, and it costs thousands of yuan to order a few dishes. Gu Song has accompanied the leader a few times, but he has never eaten here out of his pocket.
Seeing that Xia Shi took the menu and ordered a few ridiculously expensive dishes, Gu Song jokingly asked, "Why did you come to such an expensive place to eat?" Is it your treat today? ”
"Don't worry, someone will invite you to this meal today, and you don't have to pay for it two of us." Xia Shi smiled, and then handed the menu to Gu Song, "Look at what else you want to eat, just order it." The opportunity is rare, and there will be no such shop after this village. ”
Gu Song understood that the person who invited the guests to dinner was Zhong Xin. That guy is an invisible rich man who inherited a large inheritance from Professor Sun half a year ago. It stands to reason that Zhong Xin can use the money to invest in business, or do other relatively easy jobs, but he insists on coming back to be a policeman, in addition to destroying the organization to avenge Professor Sun, he also wants to regain the justice and courage of the past, and fight side by side with these brothers who are fighting on the front line again.
Since it was Zhong Xin's treat, Gu Song didn't plan to be polite anymore. He flipped through the menu from beginning to end, finally ordering two of the most expensive dishes in the restaurant, and then said to the pretty waitress, "Okay, let's order these first." ”
"Damn, I didn't think you were more vicious than me." Xia Shi sighed, thinking that Zhong Xin walked into the private room for a while, and found that he was slaughtered so ruthlessly by the two juniors, and he couldn't help but feel a little sorry.
"Don't you order drinks?" The waitress smiled and looked at them in turn with expectant eyes and asked, probably thinking that they were the kind of gentlemen who had money and nowhere to spend.
"No need." Xia Shi waved his hand and said, "We're here to talk about things, don't drink." ”
"Okay." The waitress put away the menu and said respectfully to them, "The dishes will take about twenty minutes to prepare, so call me anytime if you need anything." ”
After the waitress went out, Gu Song and Xia Shi began to chat without a match. Gu Song told Xia Shi in detail about the recent serial shootings in R City, and also mentioned the kidnapping case and the illegal organization selling human organs mixed with the "6.7 shooting case" by the way.
Xia Shi listened to those confusing cases, and a look of envy appeared on his face. Compared with squatting in the deep mountains and waiting for those "scientific research madmen", it is obvious that what is happening here arouses his interest more.
The exquisite and chic dishes were served by the waiter one after another, and both of them were very greedy, but the people who invited the guests had not yet arrived, and they were embarrassed to move the chopsticks first.
After waiting for about ten minutes, Gu Song finally couldn't help but ask, "Why hasn't Zhong Xin come yet?" What did he tell you? ”
Xia Shi glanced at the time and muttered, "Yes, he should have come a long time ago, it can't be that something happened on the road." ”
Gu Song had a bad premonition in his heart. He looked at Xia Shi, pointed to a table full of dishes and said, "If Zhong Xin doesn't come, we will ...... today."
Before Gu Song could finish speaking, Xia Shi realized this serious problem. He hurriedly took out his wallet and rummaged through it a few times, and suddenly said with a wry smile: "Oops, I only brought a credit card, and the limit may not be enough......"
Gu Song spread his hands helplessly, "Don't count on me, I'm a poor bastard." ”
