The investigation of the case is proceeding smoothly. According to the parking record at noon on the 25th, Zhang Shengyi should have had lunch at a high-end Western restaurant called "Lianpin" before his death.

At the same time, there was another point that caught the attention of Lin Yuan Temple. On the 25th, Zhang Shengyi spent 105,000 yuan on the "Fetish" card.

This expensive lunch is worth a trip to Lin Yuan Temple.

It was dinner time, and Lin Yuansi wanted to call Shi Lei to go with him and have a meal together, which could be regarded as a reward for the two of them.

But who knows, after Shi Lei heard Lin Yuansi's invitation, he just sneered, dropped a sentence of "I don't want to lose face", and turned around and left, without giving the other party a trace of face.

Chen Xi on the side was coaxing, saying that she had not been to a high-end Western restaurant, and begged Lin Yuansi to take her to have a look.

One is very unflattering, the other is very proactive, and Lin Yuansi certainly chose the latter.

When he came to the door of the restaurant, Lin Yuansi understood the reason why Shi Lei was reluctant to come with him.

"Fetish" this western restaurant, as if built in the garden, at a glance, there will be a small pavilion about 500 meters apart, the pavilion is equipped with a table and dining chairs, there will be gurgling water next to the dining pavilion, accompanied by soft and elegant music, but there is a bit of classical charm of the combination of Chinese and Western.

To be honest, it always feels strange to let Lin Yuansi eat Western food in this kind of place, and he prefers to eat Chinese food here.

Seeing this unique dining environment, Lin Yuansi thought about it with his toes, and he could also know that the food here was expensive, and Lin Yuansi couldn't help but thank Shi Lei for the hundredth and first time in his heart.

If Shi Lei really agreed to come here to eat, according to Lin Yuansi's good-faced character, he would not have to put next month's salary together, and then it would not be just a share of the soil.

"Are you two here to eat?" A waitress greeted her with her signature smile and a very comfortable look.

When Chen Xi on the side heard this, his first reaction was to say yes, as if he had already opened his mouth, and he almost made a sound.

"No, we're police." Lin Yuansi pretended to be calm and said, while secretly thinking in his heart, "It's so dangerous", but fortunately he was preempted by himself. "Is your manager here, we have something we want to know."

"Okay, please two police officers here."

The waitress led the two to a place similar to the lounge, which was a little simpler and more low-key than the hall just now, but it was also elegant and bright.

Lin Yuansi picked up the tea placed on the table, took a sip, and only felt that the tea was fragrant and tender.

"If only the stone were there, he would have liked the tea." Lin Yuansi thought secretly while drinking.

Shi Lei is a well-known tea lover in the bureau, and over the years he has been with him, Lin Yuansi has not rubbed his tea drink. Once Lin Yuansi secretly soaked the Pu'er that Shi Lei had treasured for a long time, and he was talking about it for almost half a year.

Lin Yuansi was thinking about being distracted, and the manager of the restaurant came. "Hello two police officers, do you have something to ask me for?" The manager looked very polite with a smile on his face.

"Yes, we want to find out about Zhang Shengyi's situation." Lin Yuansi went straight into the knife and had no intention of going around in circles.

Hearing the words "Zhang Shengyi", the manager's smile froze obviously, and it seemed that she already knew about Zhang Shengyi's death.

I'm afraid the news of his death has already spread. Lin Yuansi couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"As far as we know, on the day of the death of the deceased Zhang Shengyi, he came to your restaurant for lunch, and according to his parking time in the parking lot, he came to your restaurant at about 12 noon and then drove away at about 14 pm. Am I right? ”

"I only remember that Mr. Zhang did come to us at noon on the 25th, but I can't remember the exact time." The manager said as he reminisced about the scene

"Do you remember if he was alone or with friends?"

"This...", the manager looked embarrassed, as if considering whether it was appropriate to divulge the privacy of the guests.

"You don't have to be embarrassed, I know that high-end restaurants like yours have always paid attention to the privacy of their customers, and we just want to have clues related to the case, and you can trust us as for proportion."

"Well... In fact, Mr. Zhang brought a friend with him that day, and it was a lady. ”

When Lin Yuansi heard the news, his eyes lit up, and he asked excitedly, "Is it a blonde lady?" ”

"No, it's a lady with short black shoulder-length hair."

"Really? That's not the person. Lin Yuansi's lost appearance jumped on the paper. In fact, if you think about it, you know that the blonde woman in the video is wearing sportswear, and the possibility of coming to a Western restaurant to wear sportswear is very small.

"I don't like to beat around the bush when I speak, I like to go straight." Although there was some disappointment, immediately after, Lin Yuan Temple returned to normalcy. "According to the bank's transfer records, Mr. Zhang spent a total of 105,000 yuan in your store on the 25th, and I would like to ask you to explain what is going on."

"I'm sorry, I don't understand what you mean, police officer, customers spend in our store, swipe cards or pay cash, it's a matter of course, what's the problem?" The manager looked humble and polite, as if he really didn't understand what Lin Yuansi was saying.

"It's good for you, both for you and for the restaurant." Lin Yuansi's tone was full of warnings. "I believe that restaurants like yours will keep members' consumption records, and if I find out if there is any contraband trading and come to you, it will be the inspection team, and I think that when the time comes, they will probably not be as polite as me."

The other party listened to Lin Yuansi's words and was silent for a long time, perhaps thinking about what to deal with.

Lin Yuansi was not in a hurry, picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and looked calm.

After a full five minutes, the manager opened his mouth and once again showed his pleasant side. "Officer, please don't be so serious, there are absolutely no illegal transactions in our store. If you just want to know about Mr. Zhang's consumption in our store, I must know everything. ”

"Isn't that right? Say, what is the name of the lady who came with Zhang Shengyi, do they often come together? Lin Yuansi smiled and began to ask.

"The member name left by that lady is Zhu Xiaolin, we don't know if it's true or not. In fact, Mr. Zhang does not come to our restaurant very often, but Ms. Zhu often brings friends here. Of the 105,000 yuan that Mr. Zhang just mentioned, 5,000 yuan was for the lunch on the same day, and the remaining 100,000 yuan was for Ms. Zhu to spend at our store. Every time Ms. Zhu comes to spend, we will deduct it according to her bill, and if the balance is not enough, we will call Mr. Zhang to inform him. ”

Lin Yuansi listened to the other party's words, and couldn't help but secretly admire in his heart, a meal costs five thousand, and a rich person is willing to spend money on picking up girls.

"Since you're just spending money here, it's good if you just say no at the beginning, so that I think there's some secret in the store." Lin Yuansi said, deliberately aggravating the tone of the words "ulterior".

"Hehe... Officer, you are joking, our restaurant will inevitably have a lot of concerns when it opens its doors to do business, but there is absolutely no violation of law and discipline, please rest assured. The manager explained with a smile, but Lin Yuansi could see a slight coldness in her eyes.

Maybe this store is a bit boring.

"It's good if you don't have it." Lin Yuansi did not intend to continue on this issue. "Has it been a long time since Zhang Shengyi spent money in your store like this?"

"It's been almost a year. At first, the operation was not as smooth as it is now, there was often a lack of balance, and Mr. Zhang was not a frequent visitor here, so it was not convenient to contact him, but after a few operations, this consumption model became more mature. Probably understanding that there was no benefit in concealing this, this time the manager replied very simply.

"You just said that Mr. Zhang is not a regular customer here, so do you know why he chose to spend so much in your store?"

"This... I also heard it from the clerk. It seems that Ms. Zhu lives near our restaurant, which is more convenient, so I chose this place. ”

In this way, the relationship between Zhu Xiaolin and Zhang Shengyi has been maintained for at least a year.

If the murderer is Mrs. Zhang, is it necessary for her to wait that long before she makes a move?

Or is it because you haven't found the right opportunity, so what is that opportunity?

Judging from the motives, it seems unlikely that Zhu Xiaolin will move Zhang Shengyi. Lin Yuansi believes that the meal cost of 100,000 yuan is just the tip of the iceberg, and it is not easy to find such a long-term meal ticket with a lot of money. Zhu Xiaolin shouldn't be stupid enough to cut off her own money.

However, this is just speculation, and the specific situation will have to wait until I have met Zhu Xiaolin himself.

"Thank you for your hard work, let's learn so much about it today. Leave. Lin Yuansi didn't plan to entangle anymore, got up and stood up, symbolically shook the other party's hand, and turned around and left the room.

There don't seem to be any more useful clues in this restaurant. Of course, there was another reason for him to leave, and that was... Lin Yuansi already felt his stomach growling.

"Captain, aren't we going to leave after dinner?" On the way out, Chen Xi whispered, as if it was strange how it was not the same as what he said when he came.

Hearing this, Lin Yuansi almost vomited blood, does this stunned young man have some eyesight, I don't know if it's so expensive here?

"I'm going out and I'm going to ask you to eat instant noodles." Lin Yuansi walked forward and threw this sentence to her, regardless of whether the people behind him heard it or not.
