Chapter Ninety-Two: The Noodle House in the Town
The three Xiong Lei, who had been tossed by the crazy woman for a night, continued to hurry forward with three pairs of dark eyes......
Along the way, Xiong Lei and Wu Ke took turns driving, while Jiaqi lay on the back seat and fell asleep......
Fortunately, before setting off, Wu Ke prepared some rations, barely able to support their bodies, Xiong Lei and Wu Ke discussed and decided, when they arrived at the destination city, they would get out of the car first to find something to eat, after all, people are iron and steel, and if they don't eat a meal, they will be hungry and panicked......
After Xiong Lei and Wu Ke alternated a few rounds, they finally arrived at the town of their destination......
This town didn't look much bigger than the town they stayed in before, Xiong Lei said to himself: "It seems that this town shouldn't have too many people, and it should be relatively easy to find someone......
"Hmm...... I'm really a little hungry, though, so let's find a place to eat first...... Wu Ke said......
Jiaqi, who was sleeping in the back row, woke up immediately when she heard the word "eat", her eyes were hazy, and she said in a daze: "Have you eaten?" ”
Xiong Lei saw that everyone was indeed hungry, so he said, "Find a place to eat!" ”
It just so happened that there was a small noodle restaurant on the side of the road, and at the door of the noodle restaurant, there was a lazy big cat......
"Is it okay to eat noodles?" Xiong Lei asked......
Wu Ke smacked his lips and said, "As long as it's not, I can eat anything now......"
"Let's go!" A few people got out of the car and went straight to the small noodle restaurant......
The big flower cat at the door saw that someone was coming, rubbed it to the side slightly, and continued to lie on its stomach with squinted eyes......
"Dad! Three bowls of beef noodles! Xiong Lei shouted......
"Okay!" There was a chorus of pandering from the back kitchen......
Xiong Lei's small noodle restaurant is not large, there are only four small square tables in the room, and a row of small boiled vegetables are placed on the side against the wall, such as dried tofu shreds, shredded potatoes, and cucumbers......
Xiong Lei asked loudly again: "Boss!" How do you sell side dishes? ”
The voice of reply came from the back kitchen: "Five dollars!" Eat and drink! ”
The meaning of this is that five yuan can be added at will, Xiong Lei heard the boss say this, and said with a smile: "Your business is really economical......
"The town is small, they are all acquaintances, and it's not good to sell it expensive!"
Xiong Lei brought some side dishes to the table by himself, and several people were so hungry that they were not polite at all, and before the noodles came up, they began to eat the plate of side dishes in front of them......
After eating a few bites, Xiong Lei couldn't help but say, "Boss! Your side dish tastes so good! Absolutely! ”
"Come on!" With a crisp shout, a middle-aged man in a chef's coat came out of the back kitchen......
Fragrant noodles with several large cuts of beef that you can see......
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "This noodle should be delicious while it is hot!" ”
He placed the noodles on the table and brought a transparent plastic jar about twenty centimeters high from the table next to him, which contained bright green coriander leaves......
The boss took a large lump of coriander leaves with chopsticks and threw them into Xiong Lei's noodle bowl, and said with a smile: "With coriander, it doesn't cost if it's not delicious!" ”
Xiong Lei smiled and looked at the boss, in fact, he didn't eat coriander originally, I forgot when, I heard someone say that eating coriander is not good for men, and since then, Xiong Lei has never eaten coriander......
But at the moment, facing a plate full of delicious noodles and decorated with bright green coriander like a hill, Xiong Lei couldn't help but swallow his saliva, nodded and said, "Okay!" I'll taste it! ”
"Hmmm! Delicious! Xiong Lei couldn't help but praise after taking a bite......
Wu Ke and Jiaqi beside him saw Xiong Lei's delicious food, and they also followed suit and put some coriander in the bowl......
The boss smiled and said, "How about it, I didn't lie to you, did I?" ”
Xiong Lei couldn't help but nod and said, "Uncle! Bring me another bowl! ”
"No problem!" As the boss spoke, he turned around and walked into the back kitchen, and Wu Ke hurriedly said, "Uncle! Two bowls! Add two more bowls! ”
"Okay~~" The middle-aged man agreed with a smile......
A few minutes later, the boss brought two more bowls of noodles, and at this time, the bowls in front of Xiong Lei and Wu Ke were no longer even soup......
Xiong Lei was holding the coriander in the bowl, and the boss asked, "Aren't you locals?" ”
Xiong Lei swallowed a large mouthful of noodles and replied vaguely: "Hmm...... We're here to find someone...... Found someone, we ...... So I went back...... It's just that we're new here, and we're not familiar with the place...... I don't know where that person is? ”
The boss sat down at the table next to him and said, "Don't you have a contact information?" ”
"We're here for a friend, and we only have that person's phone number...... But I had already called before I came, and no one answered ......."
The boss asked with interest, "Oh? Who are you looking for? I know more than half of the people in this town, if I don't know them all, so maybe I can help you......"
Xiong Lei thought for a while, although it was inconvenient to say too much to others about helping the master find "Lying Zun", but it was okay to talk about the person who was looking for "Ling Shu......
"The person I'm looking for is called Ling Shu, an aunt in her fifties......"
"Ling Shu? ......" the owner of the noodle shop pondered...... After a while he added, "I've never heard of this name...... Are you sure it's called by that name? ”
Xiong Lei took out the printed paper that he had been carrying, on which were written the names, ages, telephone numbers, addresses, ID numbers and other personal information of the three people...... There is also a somewhat blurry black-and-white photograph of yourself at the front......
Xiong Lei folded the paper, revealing only the first photo named Ling Shu, and said, "Uncle, look at it, do you recognize this person......
The boss took the paper, didn't look at it carefully, and said, "Isn't this the sister-in-law of the Shen family?" ”
"Sister-in-law of the Shen family?" Xiong Lei was a little puzzled......
The boss looked at the photo carefully again and said, "Yes! That's right! That's her! Usually we call her the sister-in-law of the Shen family, and no one knows her real name! ”
After speaking, the boss looked Xiong Lei up and down and said, "Why are you looking for her?" She's a local, and I haven't heard of her having any relatives or friends outside......"
Xiong Lei prevaricated and said, "Ah...... That one...... I'm also helping others......"
The boss smiled and said, "Her house is not far from here, and her man is a junior high school teacher in our town, and everyone respects him very much...... You eat first, and after a while, I'll take you to ......"
Xiong Lei was also very happy when he heard that the boss was so enthusiastic, and said excitedly: "It would be great if you could take us there, but it would save me a lot of trouble...... That...... Bring me another bowl of noodles! ”
