Chapter 145: Reunion Dinner
() Lin Xia and Lin Qikai have rarely chatted for so long, and by the time she left Lin Qikai's office, nearly two hours had passed. She looked at the interrogation room, Shen Yu was still trying the case, and it was close to noon, Lin Xia could only go to the neighborhood to buy some lunch for Shen Yu and Lin Qikai.
Lin Xia asked Li Lin about the better-tasting restaurants nearby, so he wandered around to buy them lunch. After the epidemic incident, the Food Supervision Bureau is also vigorously rectifying and supervising the catering industry.
Therefore, the restaurants near the criminal investigation team are relatively formal and very clean, and Lin Xia ordered a few dishes to take away. After paying the money, he was suddenly bumped by the person behind him, Lin Xia frowned, and the other party said sorry apologetically. Lin Xia didn't take it to heart, and waved his hand to let the other party leave.
But Lin Xia thought about it, had she seen this person anywhere?
Until Shen Yu and Lin Qikai had dinner, Lin Xia was still in a daze. Seeing this, Shen Yu took a piece of meat and said, "Be good, open your mouth." β
Lin Xia subconsciously opened his mouth, and was stuffed with chopsticks braised pork by Shen Yu. Lin Xia reacted at this time and chewed slowly.
"Xia Xia, what's wrong with you? I went out to buy a meal and lost my soul. β
"Well... I just can't remember it, I always think that person is familiar, but I just can't remember it. β
"If you can't think about it, don't think about it, the food is going to be cold."
Lin Xia nodded and ate slowly.
Shen Yu had to continue working in the afternoon, Lin Xia had nothing to do, and suddenly thought that after such a bunch of bad things, she hadn't seen her mother for a long time. After talking to Shen Yu, he drove back to his home where he had lived for more than 20 years.
At home, Jolene is watching a TV series, and the two short-legged little corgis are running back and forth. Seeing Lin Xia coming back, Qiao Lin immediately got up and hugged and kissed Lin Xia.
"My silly girl, you think of your mother. You didn't wake up after being with you for the first two days, and then Shen Yu said that you woke up, I wanted to go to see you, but I was stopped by your father, saying what to let me stay at home honestly, waiting for you to come and see me. β
Qiao Lin complained when she saw Lin Xia, but it could also be seen that Qiao Lin was well protected by Lin Qikai. If Qiao Lin knew what Lin Xia had suffered in the past six months, it was estimated that Shen Yu and Lin Qikai would suffer.
"So, didn't I come to see you right away? Don't worry, you're got a real girl! β
"You! None of you and your dad make me worry, do you know how messy it is out there now! is still tossing day by day, if Shen Yu hadn't found out early, you would have been able to stand it. β
Lin Xia didn't know what Lin Qikai said to Qiao Lin, but she didn't ask, just nodded in agreement. Her mother knows best, as long as everything is over, at most she will say a few words, turn around and forget it.
"En, mom is right, you just said that I just entered the door, and I want you to make something to eat! It seems that I can't eat it. β
"As far as your mouth is poor, I'll cook whatever you want to eat, by the way, I just bought the crispy pork and fried pork ribs yesterday, I'll give you hot ones, you eat some first."
Lin Xi nodded, and Qiao Lin went to the refrigerator. Lin Xia sat on the sofa after a long absence, playing with two dogs, and sure enough, it was the most relaxing at home.
While playing, someone suddenly rang the doorbell.
"Hello, Ms. Joe's courier."
Lin Xia raised her eyebrows, what did her mother buy again? She looked at the kitchen, and lightly went to open the door and take the delivery. When I returned to the living room, I saw the words 'Poverty Alleviation Project Purple Potato' written on the express box.
Lin Xia walked to the kitchen with the box, leaned on the door frame and said with a smile: "Mom, why are you still helping the poor?" β
Qiao Lin saw the box in Lin Xia's hand, and replied with a smile: "This is also what your Aunt Zhao told me, her son went to the mountains to collect wind before, found this poverty alleviation project, and thought it tasted good after eating it." So I bought some, the price is not expensive, and I can help others, which is also a double benefit. β
The more Lin Xia listened, the more she felt that her mother was the kindest and loveliest mother in the world, and immediately opened the express package, and the purple potatoes with mud in it were round and cute.
Lin Xia washed and cut the purple potatoes into pieces, steamed them on the cage drawer, made purple potato yogurt, and made some purple potato cakes and baked purple potato chips. Then I prepared to leave some for Shen Yu and Lin Qikai to taste.
Lin Xia and Qiao Lin rarely had a leisurely afternoon, watching TV series, eating desserts and snacks, teasing the dog lying on the sofa, and the mother and daughter complained about Lin Qikai and Shen Yu.
Before I knew it, night fell, and Qiao Lin said that she wouldn't let Lin Xia go, and got up to prepare dinner again. Lin Xia called Shen Yu and asked him to come back with Lin Qikai after work in the evening, and the family had a reunion dinner.
Lin Xia and Qiao Lin cooperated tacitly to cook in the kitchen, and teased the two corgis from time to time. Just after eight o'clock, there was movement at the door.
The two corgis staggered to the door to greet Lin Qikai, and as soon as Lin Qikai entered the door, he said: "Wife, I'm back, jumping, jumping, is my wife happy today?" Did you get into trouble? β
Lin Xia also saw Lin Qikai like this for the first time, and looked at her father with the corners of her mouth twitching and said, "Dad, you are so naΓ―ve, my mother just said that you will definitely say this when you come back, I still don't believe it." Tsk...
Seeing Lin Xia's disgusted look, Lin Qikai didn't object, put down his things and went to Qiao Lin to cook dinner together. Lin Xia was squeezed out of the kitchen, helplessly looked at Shen Yu, who had already played with two dogs, and rolled his eyes.
The two sat in the living room and played with the two corgis for a long time, during which Shen Yu also went to the kitchen to help serve food and clean up things, only Lin Xia sat alone in the living room and ate melon seeds, no matter how she looked, she felt that she was so wasteful.
But after serving the table and starting to eat, Lin Xia didn't care about it. The small incinerator mode was turned on in an instant, and Lin Xia didn't let go of any of the dishes.
During the meal, I heard Shen Yu and Lin Qikai chatting, and I learned that many of the members of Original Sin were very young, and they were forced to join Original Sin during the rebellious period, and some were orphans.
Those people were more or less sentenced, and Luo Feiya and Chai Jingyun, who are still alive, were finally sentenced to death because they were involved in multiple murders in previous years.
As for Shen Yu's younger brother Gu Bai, he always refused to talk to Shen Yu, and finally confessed to the crime under the interrogation of other police officers.
It's just that the three of them were all poisoned during the process of being escorted, and by the time the police noticed it, the three were already dead. After a forensic autopsy, the three should have hidden the poison in their teeth, and then committed suicide during the escort.
The entire original crime case is now nearing the end, and only the materials are left to be submitted to the upper echelons, and the case can be closed.
Qiao Lin listened in horror on the side, and while being afraid, she told Lin Qikai and Shen Yu that they must be careful when handling cases. Protect yourself, you are all people with families, but you can't rush forward as soon as your mind is hot.
Lin Xia stabbed Shen Yu with chopsticks under the table, what does that mean: Did you hear that? Don't be stupid and die.
Shen Yu smiled helplessly and replied with a look that reassured Lin Xia.
