Chapter 35: The Thanksgiving Feast

Maybe he didn't want to stay here any longer, Liu Lei agreed to Qingman's invitation and walked out of the police station with him.

"Uh, what would you like to eat? How about three fresh fried noodles? Qingman glanced at the small shops around him, although he made up his mind to ask Liu Lei to pay for it, but in line with the basic goodness of making less trouble for others, he did not open his mouth as an insatiable lion.

Liu Lei was noncommittal, a pair of listless eyes stared at less than two meters in front of him, as if he was preoccupied, and he seemed to have not yet come out of the disappointment.

Qingman sighed secretly behind him, knowing that he shouldn't have the idea of asking him to pay. Whatever you want around here, aren't you full now?

The air was filled with the aroma of freshly baked bread, fried chicken thighs, stir-fried rice noodles, secret flower nails and other foods, teasing her sense of smell and taste, which had become sensitive due to hunger, and giving her the illusion of losing tens of billions of assets.

Just as he was swallowing and regretting his saliva, a horn suddenly sounded behind him.

"Where are you going? After a busy day, why don't you have dinner together? Tu Bai poked his head out of the car window, looking at the intimacy and enthusiasm of a fellow countryman.

Eat? Qingman seemed to be rescued suddenly, and his excited heart became alive before his face.

However, she still had the inertia of being wary of Tu Bai in the end, and she didn't dare to "make a mistake" alone, so she could only look forward to looking at Liu Lei and waiting for his final reply.

Liu Lei could probably guess what Qingman thought, and his heart was softened by his pitiful glance, and he wanted to push the boat down the river to agree to Tu Bai's invitation. However, he hesitated again and again, but still did not agree. If you are not related to you, how can you accept the invitation to eat casually?

"Why don't you go with them, and I'll wander the streets for a while?" He turned his head to discuss with Qingman, but was interrupted by Tu Bai: "Hey, what are the two police officers hesitating about?" Rest assured, I have absolutely nothing to ask you for, and I will never snoop on you during dinner—on the contrary, we can share with you all the news we have heard this afternoon if we need to. ”

"And what are you trying to do?" After all, pie doesn't fall from the sky.

"Thank you?" The car behind was blocked by Tu Bai, and he was impatient and began to honk his horn to urge. Lin Jing got down from the back seat, explained what to the car behind him diligently, and sent small bags through the window.

Tu Bai quickened his voice and urged, "If you hadn't solved the case in Liucaiyuan last time, my loss would not have been a matter of a few meals. Let's go! Hurry up and get in the car! Let's not stand in the way of others here, let's talk about it when we get to the hotel! ”

Finally, Liu Lei nodded at Qingman, opened the car door and sat inside.

……

The group of four came to the most luxurious Chinese restaurant in Jing'an City, Lin Jing only reported his name, and was led into the private seat on the second floor by the waiter.

"Hello President! Hello two officers!" More than 20 girls stood in a circle, greeting them with a smile, that scene - Rao is a tough guy like Liu Lei who doesn't smile on weekdays is a little unbearable, a black face instantly turned into eggplant purple, and his hands and feet don't know where to put it.

Qingman looked at him like an elder who had strayed into the Pansi Cave, and hurriedly gave up his body to block the front. It's just that the monk has more meat and less meat, and although she helped him block the girl on this side, she couldn't stop the girl on the other side.

Tu Bai smiled like an old bustard, and it was rare to distance himself from Qingman. Lin Jing went out for a lap and came back, and the seat was arranged between the two of them.

"President, the other five police officers have already sent them locators, and they are on their way this way. Lulu didn't come back with us in the afternoon because it was rare to go home. ”

Tu Bai nodded, signaling that he knew, and hurriedly introduced her to Qingman: "Lin Jing, the editor-in-chief of Yuzi Newspaper, my most capable subordinate. Not only is his business ability outstanding, but his appearance and personality are also not picky. ”

?!

Qingman and Lin Jing looked at each other a little stunned, although they had met before, they didn't know what Tu Bai was singing.

"Wow! Is the boss a conscience discovery today? Why did you invite us to eat in such an upscale place?" The second excited voice came from outside, just helping Qingman to relieve the siege. He said goodbye and got up and went out to greet him.

"It can't be anything, right? I haven't heard the female voice on the phone. Xiao Chen was a little restrained, and looked left and right behind the second section.

"Eh, this way, this way!" Qingman waved to them, but was more quietly gestured by Xi He's disgust.

The group sat down noisily, and cold and hot dishes were served on the table.

Qingman deliberately chose to sit down at the door, not only was the distance from Tu Bai far away, but also every dish served could be chopsticks first.

He ate attentively and heartily, but he was bitter for the second section and Xiao Zhang on the side.

Such a person who doesn't know how to be polite, I really want to pretend that I don't know him!

The scene was a little awkward, but the smile in the corners of Tu Bai's eyes continued unabated. Interesting, such a person who does not hesitate to face him and avoids him like a femme fatale, is really rare in the world! He turned his head and whispered a few words to Lin Jing, and after a while, another round of dishes was delivered.

Squirrel fish, pot-wrapped meat, pineapple grunt pork, sweet and sour lemon shrimp...... The uniform red and bright color, the same sweet and sour taste, are all copies of the most serious "slaughter" in the first round.

"Come on, come on, you're welcome! Eat whatever you like! We don't have any rules here, how comfortable is how to come! Although Tu Bai personally stood up to persuade everyone, his eyes were still staring at Qingman most of the time.

"Hiccup—sorry, full."

Qingman didn't appreciate it at all, and he burped loudly and collapsed on the chair without bones.

"So why don't you have a cup of tea and take a break?"

Lin Jing had never seen such an uneducated person, and she was very unhappy in her heart, but seeing Tu Bai defending him like this, she could only lift 120,000 points of spirit and take the lead in warming up the scene while laughing.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, I finally got back to business. The girls all put away their relaxed state and consciously took out their mobile phones and notebooks.

Lily and Pingping, who were the first to report on their work, visited the owner of the six-pointed star farmland, Wang Fulin, in the afternoon.

"How is Wang Fulin's social relations? Is there an enemy or something? Liu Lei thought about the dozen acres of wheat fields that turned into ashes overnight before they were harvested, and he refused to believe that the murderer's location was random.
