In a bar in the heart of the city, the lights are flickering and the music is booming. At this time, the bar business was just starting to pick up, and people kept coming in.

Xia Qing was wearing a light gray professional skirt and sat on the sofa of the bar booth a little cramped. Sitting to her left was her manager. The man was wearing a polyester white shirt and a business vest over it, and his hair was styling wax with a lot of shiny and stiff.

To her right sat a well-dressed and haughty-looking middle-aged man.

The seat was specially arranged by her manager, and at this time, the male manager was flatteringly toasting the middle-aged man sitting on her right across her, and kept motioning for her to accompany her to toast.

In order to sign this big order, Xia Qing and the male manager had a meal with the customer today. After the meal, the customer was in good spirits and asked to sit at the bar. She originally wanted to quit first, but she couldn't stand the manager's soft grinding, so she could only follow them to this bar.

At this time, a young man with dyed yellow hair walked imperceptibly to the booth where they were, and he shook his head to the beat of the bar music, pretending to observe these people casually.

The male manager in the vest saw the yellow-haired young man, and the two sides exchanged a look. He asked Xia Qing to greet the middle-aged man, and he got up and came to Huang Mao's side. After exchanging words, the two secretly exchanged a pink powdery object wrapped in a small plastic bag and a small roll of banknotes under their hands.

The yellow-haired young man is the one who walks in this bar, that is, he works as a waiter, warms up, and sells some mild hallucinogenic illegal drugs in private.

After putting the small roll of banknotes in his pocket, he swayed left and right to leave the booth of Xia Qing and the others with the music, came to the window of the bar, and looked out the window. When he saw a Land Wind SUV parked far away on the side of the road, he raised an eyebrow, trotted out of the bar, and walked towards the SUV on the side of the road......

City West District Police Station.

Tong Lie took out the materials in the leather document bag and picked up a small sealed plastic bag from it. This is the evidence that Jiang You gave him at that time. There were four or five Seven Star cigarette butts inside, and the top of the cigarette butt was not burned, but as if someone had pinched off the burning part and discarded it. Tong Lie once checked the cigarette butt, but there were no fingerprints on it, and the smoker should have been wearing gloves at the time.

According to Jiang You's description, he saw two people at the time of the incident. One was on the rooftop, while the other was at the scene of the accident and picked up something.

The next day, Jiang You went to the roof and found these cigarette butts, which showed that someone had indeed stayed there on the roof of the building at that time. However, there is no direct evidence whether it is related to the accident. As for the people who picked up things in the ruins of the billboards. Tong Lie asked the crowd who participated in the rescue and onlookers that day, but no one noticed the man in the hoodie. As for the surveillance around the place of the incident, due to the limited number and incomplete coverage angle, coupled with the chaos at the scene that day, no valuable footage was taken.

So at the time of the incident, did the person on the roof really exist? Who is he? What was on the roof at that time? Is the red point of light that Jiang You said really emitted by a laser telescope, as he guessed? And who is the person who picked up things? What was picked up? Mobile phone? But at that time, the mobile phone of the chairman of Huajian was not lost. The only strange thing is that his phone was in his coat pocket at the time and was not being held in his hand. According to Jiang You and several witnesses, the chairman of Huajian Group was talking on his mobile phone when the billboard was smashed. So was it another phone that was taken away by the person in the hoodie? Tong Lie fell into deep thought, even though he had thought about these questions countless times.

Knock knock

A sudden knock on the door interrupted his thoughts......

Knock knock

Jiang You opened his eyes in a half-asleep state. There was a man standing outside the car, knocking on his window.

The man bent down after a few knocks, revealing a somewhat handsome but somewhat flirtatious face. He had dyed yellow hair and greeted him with a hippie smile. He is a young man in the bar, and his nickname is Huang Mao - Jiang You's informant.

Jiang You silently turned off the radio station and unlocked the car. Huang Mao quickly opened the door and got into the passenger seat.

"Brother Jiang!" He got into the car and said hello cynically, his yellow hair particularly piercing.

He was thin and fair-skinned, with a handsome face with a pair of triangular eyes. The dark eye circles and bloodless lip color make people feel that he either has a history of inhaling D or overindulgence.

Jiang You didn't speak, staring at him indifferently.

Two years ago, in order to investigate the cause of Ning Yuan's death, he wandered around all corners of the city's "above-ground and underground worlds" like a night walker, wandering between black and white.

By chance, on an off-the-beaten-track street corner. He saved Huang Mao, who had been beaten half to death. Since then, this seemingly unserious young man has become his information broker. Specifically help him keep an eye on the relevant gossip.

"Brother Jiang, you must be interested in this news!" Yellow hair stared at him triumphantly. But seeing that the other party still didn't react, he just stared at himself. He said in his heart that this person was so boring, so he had to continue: "I have news of Ji Dongshun!" ”

Hearing Ji Dongshun's name, Jiang You trembled suddenly, staring at the yellow-haired eyes sharp, like substance!

Huang Mao originally wanted to stop talking about it, and then continue to shake the material after receiving the money. But suddenly, the other party's eyes stared at him, like thousands of volts of high-voltage electricity, which made his hair stand on end without actual contact, and he didn't dare to slack off.

"Ji Dongshun has returned to White Harbor, in a hacker stack in Old West City. The little bee in our bar is my old friend, and he called him for a "takeaway" yesterday, and my old friend immediately recognized him! Huang Mao pointed to the bar next to the road, his expression a little angry.

When he described, Jiang You had gradually calmed down from the shock just now, stared at him coldly for a while, and after confirming that this kid was not lying, he took out his wallet, took a thousand yuan from it and threw it to him.

Huang Mao took the money and didn't count it, he put it directly into the pocket of his clothes, and found a note out of nowhere.

"Here's the address."

After placing the note on the center console, he walked out of the SUV very simply. After closing the car door, he didn't forget to bend down and smile and wave his hand to Jiang You. The other party didn't pay attention to him at all, turned the key and started the car.

"I've never seen you so cool!" Huang Mao muttered in his mouth, turned around and was about to go back to the bar, when he heard the sound of brakes behind him, and then the sound of the car door opening and closing.

"Why are you back?" He looked back and was directly startled!

……

Jiang You had just started the car and was about to rush to the address given to him by Huang Mao. But as soon as the car drove three or five meters, he saw a somewhat familiar figure at the door of the bar. After thinking for a moment, he slammed on the brakes, then opened the door and quickly got out of the car. After slamming the door shut, he walked briskly towards the familiar figure......

Xia Qing was helped out of the bar by two men. Her consciousness was already a little blurry, but she still tried her best to maintain the last sobriety, pushing and shoving with her hand to pretend to support, but in fact, she hugged her, and treated her hairily as a middle-aged man.

But I don't know why, she was soft all over, she couldn't exert her strength, and it was in vain to try hard to push people away. And in the eyes of passers-by, she is just a woman who is not strong enough to drink.

The male manager in the vest not only did not help her, but pulled her pushing arm over, and winked at the middle-aged man with a wicked smile. While raising his hand to stop the taxi.

Just when they stopped the taxi and were about to stuff Xia Qing into the car. The male manager suddenly felt a hand grab his shoulder. The strength of that hand was as strong as an iron tong, and it hurt to scratch him......

Jiang You grabbed the other party's shoulder with his right hand and easily pulled it away. Then he leaned forward, grabbed Xia Qing's arm with his left hand, and pulled her into his arms.

The middle-aged man stood aside and looked at Jiang You's actions suspiciously, without saying anything to stop him, he intuitively felt that this person was not easy to mess with.

The male manager in the vest is not so shrewd, he is so tall at 1.8 meters and weighs 85 kilograms, and he has never been picked up so easily like a child. After stumbling a few steps, he looked at the man who pulled Xia Qing into his arms, and he was suspicious in his heart, and wondered hard: Didn't I have the impression that she was divorced, and I didn't hear that she had a new boyfriend? Who is this man?" Can you still pick up dead fish? I can be regarded as the head snake in this area, and I mix it well, and the customer is in front of me, don't you want to lose face?

"Hey! Who the are you! After a lot of thoughts flashed through his mind, he pointed at Jiang You and shouted. Even though he was weak-hearted, he still reached out to grab Xia Qing's other arm, ready to pull her back.

Jiang You took a step back and pulled Xia Qing again. Almost unconscious, she raised her head in a daze, looked at him for several seconds, and said softly with the last of her consciousness: "Yes...... You, ......" fell into his arms and fell asleep.

The man in the vest was a little dilemma when he saw that Xia Qing seemed to really know the man in front of him. If things get big and the police are provoked, he and the client will be in trouble.

Just when he was riding the tiger, Huang Mao ran over appropriately. He first glanced at Jiang You apologetically, then turned around and pulled the male manager aside with a smile, and said softly: "Big brother, you can't afford to mess with ten of these people!" Forget it! In this way, give the little brother a little face, this matter will pass like this today, and I will give you a 7% discount next time I come to the bar! ”

Huang Mao made a serious gesture of "seven".

The male manager drank a little too much before, but now he is a little sober, and he is really not easy to mess with Jiang You's appearance, and he is worried that he has no chance to step down. Seeing that Huang Mao said this, he already had the intention of retreating in his heart. was about to say a few words to let him go down the steps, but when he saw that the other party didn't pay attention to them at all, he directly carried Xia Qing into the off-road vehicle not far away. He could only put on a strong appearance and pretended to scold: "I'll give you face today, so that this guy can get to know me in the future!" ”

Then he turned around and changed his face again, calming the middle-aged man.

Huang Mao despised this kind of person in his heart, and he pretended to be polite and waved goodbye to the two bastards who walked away. looked back at Jiang You, but the other party had already driven away.

Looking at the taillights of the off-road vehicles that were getting farther and farther away, he couldn't help but sneer in his heart: Can't you see that Brother Jiang is still a hero who can save beauty? He's busy tonight!

"Since you have a temporary 'show' tonight, it seems that you won't go to Ji Dongshun, then don't blame my little brother for reselling it for the second time!" Huang Mao was talking to himself, and while taking out his mobile phone and dialing a string of numbers......
