Chapter XVIII: Investigation (II)
Walking up the wooden stairs slowly, I didn't notice that my eyes lit up. The hall on the second floor of Quanjude suddenly became brilliant, the ceiling made of solid wood grilles, the bronze window frames of imitation wood, and a few round and thick gilded columns, if the first floor is still an ordinary people's house, then the second floor must be regarded as the standard of princes.
It's flashy.
The hall seems to be at least a few hundred square meters, hundreds of tables, and dozens of roast duck chefs are taking care of their own areas, but fortunately, our queue is still relatively high, and the hall is not crowded for the time being. We made a quick decision, consciously found a small table in the jurisdiction of the fattest master Lao Wang, and sat down.
"What do you two want?" Lao Wang was wearing a white chef's suit, although he was fatter, he was still radiant.
"Whatever you want." The left chief waved his hand impatiently.
"Whatever? Haha, okay, just the two of you, I think one roast duck is enough, the duck rack will make soup for you or fry it? ”
I nodded without thinking. "Master, it's really casual, just look at it, we actually have more important things than eating here."
"Haha, it's really interesting, I didn't come here to eat." Lao Wang looked helpless, generally speaking, the customers who come here are admired, but they ran out of our two special cases.
"We actually have something to say to you, and when you come over to cut the roast duck for us later, we want to ask you a few questions." Zuo Dao Chang hurriedly said.
"Good...... Okay, you can ask me later. As he said that, he smiled and walked to the next table, still muttering quietly. Hehe, what two weirdos. ”
About a quarter of an hour later, Lao Wang pushed the cart and returned to us with great interest.
"Look at it, this is No. 11111111, and if you're satisfied, I'll start cutting and plating for you."
"Okay, you cut, you cut slowly, we have a lot of questions for you." I stole around and saw that no one was paying attention to us, so I started interrogating. "Master, do you have any impression that a tall man named Jiao Yuqin, who is almost two meters tall, came to you for dinner with two friends?"
Ben was worried that he was not impressed, but Lao Wang burst out laughing. "What kind of tall man of more than two meters, isn't that Jiao Baye?"
"Yes, that's him! Why do you all call him Jiao Baye, is he famous? Or is it influential? "I really didn't expect Jiao Yuqin to be so famous in Beijing, even the roast duck chef knew him.
"You asked me to be the right person, his influence is naturally speechless, Jiao Baye is the recognized wolf king of our Beijing Silver Gun Club, and he is the watchman of Fireworks Willow Lane."
"The Wolf King? What the hell is this? "I look confused." Master, we are not local, you tell us more clearly, otherwise we really can't understand? ”
"Gee, that's what I'm going to tell you straight." Lao Wang sighed. "Fortunately, there are not many people now, so I will give you a general chat, this Jiao Baye has a lot of background, he is nominally the owner of a decoration company, but in fact he is the boss behind several bars in Sanlitun, Chaoyang District, Beijing, don't ask me how I know, this is something recognized by our club."
Daoist Zuo was also surprised. "It turns out that he has so much money, I really didn't expect it."
"It doesn't matter if you have money or not, an important reason why Jiao Baye can become the wolf king is that he does everything himself, and he has to personally train and teach those girls in his own bar." Lao Wang said with a smile.
"This ...... I didn't expect this Jiao Yuqin to be such a person, and his wife also said that he was an honest person. Zuo Daochang said disappointedly.
And not only that, Jiao Baye's footprints spanned the entire territory of Beijing, from Sanlitun to Baliqiao, to dens near major universities, and even simple urban villages, he left his own solid footprints. Go deep into danger and provide first-hand information for **, but you can always get out of the whole body, hiding your merit and fame. Lao Wang said with a little reverence. We all say that he is the only one who can revive the Eight Great Hutongs. ”
Daoist Zuo and I smiled awkwardly, and the roast duck master couldn't stop the car as soon as he talked about Jiao Yuqin. "Master...... Let's put this topic aside for a while, you tell us first about Jiao Yuqin, do you know where Jiao Yuqin and the others went after dinner that night? ”
"How do I know that? They won't tell me where they're going. This question made him quite uncomfortable.
"Think about it, did their conversation that night reveal any information about where they wanted to go?" Zuo Dao Chang asked solemnly.
"Why do you ask in such detail? Who the hell are you? Lao Wang suddenly became alert and hurriedly pushed the car back.
"Stop! We are plainclothes police officers in the anti-pornography unit. "I blurted out in a hurry." We have been staring at Jiao Yuqin for a long time, if you are honest in the future, we can let you go, if you don't say it, then it will be considered a deliberate concealment. ”
"Yikes!" Lao Wang was so frightened that his legs went limp. "Me! I...... I should have thought that you were comrade policemen, otherwise who would have been idle and idle to come here to investigate. ”
"Tell me in detail, what Jiao Yuqin said that night." Daoist Zuo nodded at me with satisfaction.
He ...... They started to talk about some of the things that were some and didn't, and I didn't care about the short ones. Lao Wang said tremblingly. Afterward...... Later, he had a friend from out of town who said that he wanted Jiao Baye, no, Jiao Yuqin invited them to his bar to have fun. ”
"And then?"
Then Jiao Yuqin sternly refused, saying that it was too risky, and the road was relatively far. Then he said......"
"And then what! When you finish speaking in one breath, don't stumble. Zuo Dao asked with a long face.
"Good...... I don't think what he's saying is nonsense. Lao Wang wiped the sweat stains from the corners of his eyes, and at this moment he was like a chicken in soup. He said he would take those two people to the Forbidden City to have fun. ”
Daoist Zuo and I looked at each other disappreciatively, and then Daoist Zuo suddenly slapped the table. "How dare you lie!"
"What I said is absolutely true, that's what Jiao Yuqin said." Lao Wang hurriedly explained, with a panicked face. He said he had a secret little garden in the Forbidden City. Just shout a slogan to enter this secret garden, which is full of wine and beautiful women. ”
"You still dare to lie, how can there be such a place in the Forbidden City."
"Oh, it's not what I said, it's that Jiao Yuqin who said it, it's possible that they all drink too much and talk nonsense." Lao Wang suddenly became impatient, looking at his aggrieved expression, it didn't seem to be a lie. "That's really all I know."
