Chapter 5 Make a Friend
Lu Lingyun stretched out his hand to put away the police officer card on the table, and chose a chair to sit down.
"Now that it's okay, you can talk to me alone."
I looked at Xiaoya beside me and told her to go home first.
Only Lu Lingyun and I were left in the small private room, and he called the waiter to bring in the menu.
I'll just hehe, rub him two meals a day, I don't know if he is a criminal policeman is very rich, anyway, if he doesn't eat for nothing, he should improve the food and improve the quality of life of the people.
"What do you want to eat? You order. Lu Lingyun said generously.
I think he didn't let him take the money at noon, and don't be too ruthless in the evening, just order two dishes casually.
"Another sauerkraut hot pot, a bottle of 42-degree old cellar, to be warm."
He took the initiative to add vegetables, and I couldn't say anything.
There were two chairs between us, keeping a certain distance, after all, we had just known each other and were not friends.
The food came slowly, but the wine arrived first, and Lu Lingyun unscrewed the cap of the bottle and poured two empty glasses respectively.
A glass is just two taels, and I know in my heart that there is not much left of his half-catty wine.
"Later, Uncle Liang told me about you, to be honest, I don't believe it, I can solve the case in a dream, so what else do we need the criminal police to do, but I went to the scene again to take a look, and the result..." Lu Lingyun got up halfway through his words and handed the wine glass to me.
I nodded, didn't speak, and waited to hear him continue.
"I didn't see anything unusual under the fish tank in the victim's house, but there was indeed a square biscuit box hidden inside, and I moved the box to find that the dust mark was two millimeters different from the biscuit box."
"So that cookie box was brought in by the murderer, right?" I answered.
"Well, I asked the forensic department to have my fingerprints checked in the afternoon, but unfortunately there are no clues, Yancheng, tell me the truth, why do you know so much about the crime scene, as if you saw the incident with your own eyes."
I didn't want to hide it from him, but what Lao Liang said was obviously the truth, and he didn't want to believe that it was his problem, did he still want me to make up a reason to make him happy?
"Does it matter? Officer Lu, there are so many things you don't know about in this world, what's the point of having to get to the bottom of it? Just today at noon, you invite me to dinner, I will give you the answer you want, I think it is enough, neither of us owes anyone. ”
Lu Lingyun was silent for a long time, and his eyes were still full of suspicion when he looked at me.
At this time, the owner of the restaurant brought the pot up, the steaming sauerkraut hot pot, a few slices of white meat spread on the floating layer, and the pale yellow oil foam exuded a burst of aroma with the tumbling soup.
I subconsciously swallowed my saliva and pondered where to start eating.
Lu Lingyun picked up the soup bowl and handed it to me full of sauerkraut and meat.
"Eat, look at your face is not very good, it should be related to the usual staying up late and not keeping up with nutrition."
I thought to myself, there are really two criminal investigators, and I can see people quite accurately.
"Thanks, I'll do it myself."
I ate and drank, and I didn't toast him, he didn't move his chopsticks, and took a sip from time to time.
Two or two drinks in the stomach, hot from the inside out, it is estimated that the cheeks and neck are also starting to redden.
"Yancheng, how many years have you been here?" Lu Lingyun got up as he spoke, poured the remaining wine from the bottle into my glass, and sat down on the chair next to me.
"Almost three years."
"I heard Uncle Liang say that you usually live in an Internet café?"
"Well, I work at an internet café." I glanced at Lu Lingyun's wine glass, and I had only drunk less than half of it, and I was not a particular person. It's a shame that this is in the city, and if you go back to our village, you will definitely be punished.
Drinking should be fair, not to drink clearly with the people at the table in advance, as long as the guest is dry, no matter how much is left at the table, they must accompany the other people to drink it out.
Lu Lingyun may have seen my displeasure, and called the boss to send another bottle of Laojiao.
He picked up his glass of wine and drank it in a hearty sip.
Hmm~~ That's pretty much it, I unscrewed the cap of the newly sent wine bottle and poured it for him.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors, we chatted about some things that were not there, and the awkward relationship gradually eased, and I found that he was not as cold as he seemed on the surface.
Of course, it could also be that I drank too much and was more open.
The sauerkraut in the pot bottomed out, the wine bottles on the table were empty, and I felt almost ready to get up and leave.
Standing up a little violently, the wine rushed to the top, and the brain 'buzzed'.
The soles of my feet shook more like stepping on cotton, and Lu Lingyun hurriedly reached out to hold my shoulders.
"Is there something wrong?"
"No... It's okay... It's nothing. ”
We can't admit it to drinking, so I picked up the jacket on the back of my chair and wanted to go outside.
Lu Lingyun's hand on my arm never let go, he went to the outside of the private room to settle the bill with the boss, and I staggered to the door of the small restaurant.
The howling cold wind blew on my face, and I felt a lot clearer, but my stomach was tumbling even more.
An undercurrent went down my throat, and I hugged a tree on the side of the road and vomited clean.
It's a pity that a good sauerkraut hot pot is wasted like this, not to mention how uncomfortable it is.
Just as I was doing this, a big hand gently slapped on my back, and Lu Lingyun's voice came from behind me: "Is it better?" I brought you a bottle of water. ”
I didn't expect this guy to be quite careful, so I bent down and took the mineral water and rinsed my mouth.
"Don't tell Lao Liang about this, if he knows, he will tell his son, and if his son knows, it is estimated that the whole world will know."
Lu Lingyun's hand slapped twice on his back, and a smile appeared on his face.
My first impression of him was that he was a rough Northeast man, but I never expected that he would look good when he smiled, and there was a dimple on his right cheek.
I secretly thought that he hid it deep enough, and said that people with dimples can especially drink, and it seems that he can only blame himself for being illiterate and too light on the enemy when he is planted in front of him today.
"Wait, I'll call a car to take you back." Lu Lingyun said and walked towards the side of the road, I shouted to him and didn't let him take a taxi.
"I'll walk for a while, sober up, and now I'm afraid of vomiting in the car."
"Okay, then I'll go with you."
"No, you're busy, aren't the police forces busy?" I remember that he told me about this at noon, and if I think about it, the work of criminal investigation is all about human life, and it is certainly not as easy and free as an idle person like me.
Lu Lingyun put one arm on my shoulder, and we walked on the side of the road in the silent night like good buddies.
"I'll send you to an Internet café and then go back to the police station, and I'll have to wake up before I can work."
I nodded in agreement.
"Xiaoyan~~ Can I call Lao Liang that?"
"Okay! No problem, I'll call you Marines from then on. ”
"Don't don't, they call me that every day in the team, you call me Brother Lu."
I really didn't expect that I could call the captain of the criminal police brothers, it seems that this wine is drunk in place tonight.
"Okay!" I simply agreed.
"Xiaoyan, can you tell me more about that case?" Lu Lingyun turned his face sideways and looked into my eyes.
We were so close that I could even feel his breathing.
At this moment, I finally realized that everything he had done was just a foreshadowing, and the real purpose was to ask me about the case.
Yes~~ There are so many friends in this world, but they are all using each other.
I panicked in my heart, but I couldn't scold, after all, Lu Lingyun's intentions were good, but it wasn't fair to me.
