After waiting for about 10 minutes, I saw a bald fat man around 50 years old, about 1.65 meters, with a big belly and a shaky face, walking towards me with a smirk.

"Oops! Poor hospitality, poor hospitality. Let the comrades of the public security wait for a long time". As he spoke, he stretched out two fat hands to me.

The corners of my mouth twitched and I stood up and shook his hand, "Manager Zhang, I'm sorry to delay your time!" ”

Zhang Bald held my right hand tightly with both hands, shook it vigorously, and said with a righteous face, "Hey, where are the words!" Doesn't it mean that cooperating with the police is a citizen's duty? ”

Then we politely exchanged a few words of greetings and sat down separately.

I looked at him, and I always felt a little sick to my stomach, so I said straight to the point, "Manager Zhang, the purpose of coming to you this time is to have a case that requires your cooperation." It may be a long time ago, and I need to trouble you to help. ”

Zhang Bald shook the horizontal flesh on his face and said to me with a smirk: "Where are the words!" If there is anything you command directly, I don't dare to say anything else, but as long as there is something in this factory, I can still pat my chest! ”

I laughed dryly and then said, "Then thank Manager Zhang first." ”

"Where the words! If Officer Cheng is so polite again, I'm going to turn my face. Zhang Bald pretended to be angry and said to me.

"Good! Since Manager Zhang is so refreshing, then I will say it directly. "I suddenly felt like I was fake, too.

"You say!"

I dug out Liu Kun's transfer record at the Jiangnan Experimental Equipment Factory from my handbag and handed it to Zhang Baldzi.

"Manager Zhang, do you still have any impression after reading these two transfers?"

Zhang Bald looked at the two transfer records on the paper, shook his fat head and said, "I can't remember, this kind of business of tens of thousands of yuan is more frequent in the factory every month." ”

"Can you find a way to look it up?"

"Yes, but not so fast, I'm going to find the finance department and ask them to check the project from 3 years ago." Bald Zhang frowned.

I could see his embarrassment and asked him suspiciously, "Oh? Is there any difficulty? ”

"It's so difficult that it's just more troublesome. Officer Cheng with all due respect, you don't understand the financial matters, the project from 2 years ago has been sealed, so it is more troublesome to check it all at once. ”

"Then can there be a result today, I will go back to Shanghai early tomorrow morning."

Zhang Bald thought about it and nodded, "Okay!" I'm going to apply now and I'll get you the result at three o'clock in the afternoon! ”

I breathed a sigh of relief, as long as there was a result today, and then I was ready to say goodbye and come back at 3 p.m.

After saying goodbye to Zhang Baldzi, I called Jiang Lina and asked her if she could go out for lunch together, and Jiang Lina readily agreed. I booked a Sichuan restaurant next to the Jiangnan Experimental Equipment Factory, sent her the address, and asked her and Mengmeng to take a taxi.

It was still early, and I didn't have anywhere to go around, so I went straight back to the car and took a nap.

At half past 12, I was woken up by the ringtone of my mobile phone, grabbed my phone and saw that it was Jiang Lina, and quickly picked it up, she said that she and Mengmeng had arrived, and asked me how long it would take, and I told her that it would be in 5 minutes. After hanging up the phone, I started the car and drove in the direction of the Sichuan restaurant.

When I parked the car at the Sichuan restaurant, I saw two people looking around at the door of the restaurant, and immediately walked over, apologized, and walked into the Sichuan restaurant with them.

After dinner, I sat down with them at Starbucks and asked them if they would go back to the hotel first or wait for me to finish my errands, and they said that it would be rare to come out once, so they would wait for me here and then go shopping. So I took them and drove back to the Jiangnan Experimental Equipment Factory and asked them to wait for me in the car.

Back at the factory, I went directly to the sales department to find Zhang Baldzi, and after a period of greetings, I got Liu Kun's shopping list.

There are 3 pages of A4 paper on the list of goods, densely recorded with various experimental equipment, of which I only know two or three such as beakers, measuring tubes, which is thanks to the results of 9 years of compulsory education, and other majors are too strong, and I am confused.

I handed the list back to Bald Zhang and asked him what the equipment was for. Zhang Bald looked at it carefully and told me that although he didn't know the specific purpose of these equipment, he could still see that these equipment were mainly used for liquid purification.

I asked him about a set of similar equipment on the market, I heard that it costs thousands of yuan, and a good one can be ten thousand yuan, why do these cost so much 110,000.

Zhang Bald told me that there is a difference. The ones I'm talking about are just for general schools or small manufacturers, and this set is for scientific research, which is quite cheap.

I took back the list, thanked Zhang Bald again, and left the Jiangnan Experimental Equipment Factory.

At the gate of the factory, I called Wu Shaodong and reported the progress of the work to him, and by the way, I will return to Shanghai tomorrow morning, and it should be noon when I arrive at the bureau.

Back in the car, Jiang Lina asked me with concern if things were going well? I replied to him that everything was going well, and I estimated that the case would be closed in a few days.

Jiang Lina was very happy to hear this, and said that she could go back to open a pet store after the case was over.

I didn't know why I was a little unhappy, so I said to her, "Forget it, don't open it when the time comes, and rent out your house, which is a few thousand yuan a month." ”

"But I don't want to stay at home all the time," Jiang Lina said embarrassedly.

I smiled and said, "I gave you all my net worth, and you want to abandon me." ”

Jiang Lina was so frightened that she hurriedly explained, "No, Brother Cheng, don't get me wrong, I won't leave, I just don't want to do nothing at home every day." ”

I thought for a moment and said to her, "Otherwise, you might as well rent out your house." Honestly, your sweetheart pet store really doesn't make much money. When this case is closed, how about we find a store in the Huandao Garden and open a sweetheart café? Although the rent is higher, it is inhabited by high-income people, which is easier to do than you in the Ladies Market, and the café is less important and more relaxed. ”

"No, Brother Cheng. I really don't want to spend your money anymore. ”

"I'm going to be unhappy if you say you don't have money, although I don't have much money, but I can still do this kind of small thing."

"But ......"

"No, but I'm also selfish in opening a café in the Garden around the island, and the work of the police is often day and night. You have a shop near your home, and you can take care of me every day, unless you don't want to cook for me. I deliberately said to her with a straight face.

Jiang Lina hurriedly waved her little hand, and said anxiously, "No, no, how could I be unwilling to take care of Brother Cheng, as long as Brother Cheng doesn't dislike me, I will always take care of you." ”

I touched her little head and said, "That's right, there will be nothing wrong with listening to Brother Cheng." It's still early, where do you see where we're going to go around? ”

Jiang Lina looked at Mengmeng who was sleeping soundly in the back seat, and sighed, "Mengmeng should be tired, let's go back to the hotel." ”

I looked back at the little girl and asked Jiang Lina with some heartache, "The doctor said there was really no way?" ”

"Yes, the hospital said that the best time for treatment was missed, unless it was tried abroad." Saying that, Jiang Lina cried, "But at that time, we were very poor, and eating was a problem, where was the money to treat Mengmeng." ”

I reached out and pulled Jiang Lina, who was sitting in the passenger seat, into my arms, hugged her and comforted, "Didn't you say that you can try it abroad?" There are still a few chances. ”

"But that's a lot of money, and I can't take it out." Jiang Lina cried more and more excitedly in my arms.

I gently stroked her jade back and said, "I'm here for everything, don't worry, let's go back first." After saying that, I helped her back to the passenger seat, helped her pull on her seat belt, and I started the car.

It's unlikely that I'll take out too much money at once, it's not that I don't want to, it's that I really don't have much savings, and it adds up to almost 500,000 in total, and most of this money is still my retirement pension.

Over the years, the country has treated me well, but most of the money I sent to my comrades-in-arms who were born and died together back then, although they are gone, I will always take care of their families. Every month, the army will call me for a special allowance of nearly 30,000 yuan, but the problem is that I only keep 5,000 of this money for living expenses, and send the rest out.

The reason why I have been reluctant to go home in the army all these years is that my family has privately betrothed me a relative, which is the youngest daughter of my uncle's comrade-in-arms, and to put it bluntly, it is a political marriage.

I took Jiang Lina home to ask for help, according to this girl's character, she must be the one who will be hurt in the end.

At this moment, I suddenly remembered someone who would probably be able to help me if it was her. In my heart, I said to Jiang Lina beside me, "Lina, if I say that I have a way to send Mengmeng to a foreign country for treatment, but you won't see her for a long time, would you be willing?" ”

"How long is a long time?" Jiang Lina looked at me vigilantly and said.

I thought to myself, you're still afraid of me, Meng Meng sold it, "Look at the medical effect, as short as half a year, as long as a year or two." "Actually, I don't know the time, so depending on the state of Mengmeng, I estimate that the time will not be short.

Seeing that Jiang Lina didn't speak, she was obviously unwilling to leave Mengmeng for too long.

"I'll make a call when I go back to the hotel, if it can be treated, I suggest that you better ask Mengmeng for her own opinion, after all, she is 17 years old, and you don't want to keep looking at her like this, only she knows the pain in her heart. It's still a while before you get back to the hotel, so think about it first. ”

After saying that, I didn't care about her anymore and drove silently, and some things had to be figured out by herself.

An hour later, we returned to Greenwillow Lodge, and in the sofa living room, I dialed an international call in front of them.

"Hello? Lily? ”

"Huh? Brother Cheng? Why are you so good at calling your little sister? ”

Hearing the female voice coming from the mobile phone, Jiang Lina looked at me with suspicious eyes, I covered the phone with my hand, and said to her embarrassedly, it's just a friend, I have helped her before.

"Brother Cheng, why don't you speak? Is it still there? ”

"Yes, there was something going on just now. By the way, I have something to ask you for, are you still in the United States? ”

"Giggles, Brother Cheng will also ask for my little sister and me, say it! As long as the little sister can do it, it must be defined! Hehehe......"

I glanced at Jiang Lina, whose face was getting worse and worse, and quickly made a long story short.

"Don't make a fuss, Lily, I have something to ask you, there is a little daughter who was born with an umbilical cord around her neck and caused a cerebral hemorrhage, which was not treated properly at the time, resulting in her health has not been good, I can't tell anything else, you wait, I'll let her talk to you!"

I handed the phone to Jiang Lina and asked her to speak directly to Ye Lili.

Jiang Lina took the phone and said politely

"Hello Sister Lili, I'm Jiang Lina, my sister was born when she ......" Jiang Lina began to narrate Mengmeng's condition.

"Well, I'll call you Nana, I have a preliminary understanding of your sister's situation for a long time, in addition to improper treatment, there is also a certain reason why nutrition cannot keep up with it in childhood. There is no problem with treatment, but it takes a long time, it takes 6-9 months, and then you can go home and recuperate slowly. She is still young, and her body is recovering quickly, and she is almost 20 years old and no different from ordinary girls. ”

"Thank you so much, Sister Lili, let's discuss it and let Brother Cheng contact you again."

"You're welcome, Brother Cheng is my savior. Oh, by the way, Nana, before I hang up the phone, can I ask Brother Cheng who you are? ”

"It's my man!" After speaking, Jiang Lina hung up the phone with a confused expression on my face.
