Chapter Thirty-Eight: A Dinner Treat
Whoop—
Water droplets splashed, and the sound of running water echoed in the washroom on the fourth floor of the police station.
Inside a cubicle, Zhao Zhong stood under the shower, letting the cold water wash his body.
After the police officer went downstairs, he also stopped today's training, picked up the clothes on the ground, walked out of the training room, came to the dormitory on the fourth floor, took a cool shower, and wanted to wash off the sweat stains on his body.
"Changhong's matter has been resolved, and the rest don't have to think about them."
When he looked at the scattered water, he felt refreshed, and his troubled thoughts were dissipated a lot.
But the most important thing is that after he cleans his sweat, he wants to go out and invite the police officers who helped him yesterday to have a good meal, which can be regarded as repaying this kindness.
Although these police officers also have certain merits to take because of this incident.
But for Zhao Zhong, in the final analysis, they helped him Zhao Zhong.
In particular, he didn't know how long he was going to be in this world, so he felt that something would inevitably happen to others in an uncertain time. It is better to have a meal and make friends while you have the same merit factor now than to invite guests to eat when you use others in the future.
So, this love. Zhao Zhong felt that he had to pay it back.
"It's about half past six now, and it's time for the police station to get off work. Just after inviting everyone to eat, you can go to the old gentleman to see how much of the medicinal diet has been made."
Zhao Zhong's thoughts fell, and after scrubbing and washing, he also felt a lot more relaxed, at least there was no salty smell of sweat.
Thereupon.
After wiping his body and putting on the vest and other clothes he had prepared, he went out of the bathroom, came to his dormitory, and changed into the new police uniform that Chief Li had prepared for him.
This one fits perfectly.
It is smaller than the original loose police uniform, which can further accentuate his strong figure.
"The clothes are pretty nice. But you can't go out in a police uniform every day. It seems that I have to buy clothes for the past two days, otherwise I won't have anything to wear when I go out to eat. ”
Zhao Zhong thought about it, looked at the small mirror on the table, and after tidying up the uneven places such as the collar, he opened the door and walked downstairs to the police station.
As he descended the stairs, he also made a phone call to Chen.
In addition to notifying the police officers who helped yesterday, he also called Zheng Xiaofeng and Wang Xu to have a meal together.
Because Wang Xu also helped Zhao Zhong a lot today, he chose a few connected stores for Chen Haonan, and after the walls were opened and stabilized, Chen Haonan was asked to open the supermarket here.
And Chen Haonan also took the time to go to see, the location is good, at the corner of the street, connecting two streets, next to the house in their duty room.
After Chen Haonan saw it, he felt very satisfied and decided to find someone to decorate it in the next two days.
Therefore, Wang Xu's reference for choosing the address is also a favor, and Zhao Zhong felt that he invited him by the way.
"Officer Chen, call Boss Wang and Officer Zheng to Tengfei Hotel, which is the largest one on our street."
After Zhao Zhong informed Chen Yongren, he smiled and hung up the phone when he heard him answer that he promised to complete the task.
Went down the stairs.
Say hello to the police officers who come and go.
Zhao Zhong came to the hall, and he wanted to invite Chief Li to repay the care he had taken for many days.
It's just that when he looked around in the hall, he didn't find any trace of Chief Li.
"Could it be that Chief Li is going to the General Bureau again?"
After thinking about it for a while, Zhao Zhong walked to the duty table and wanted to ask the new police officer on duty.
"Officer, where did Chief Li go?" He looked at the officer who had just come to work today, and was memorizing a photo of a police officer.
"Chief Li?"
When the new police officer looked away from the photo, he looked up and looked angry, as if he was a new cadet who had just graduated from the police academy.
"You're Officer Zhao, right?"
After he saw that it was Zhao Zhong, his face was full of excitement and he stammered.
"Hello.. I'm Wei Guang who just came, just call me Xiaoguang.."
Wei Guang was a little shy and a little excited in his words, but he still answered all Zhao Zhong's questions clearly, "Chief Li went to the prison in the south with the prisoner car because of Changhong's matter."
As the answer fell, he touched his head with a dry smile, and added a sentence before Chief Li left.
"Chief Li said that he may not come back in the next two days, let's work hard and don't be lazy.."
"Don't be lazy.."
When Zhao Zhong heard this, he also learned that Chief Li did not go to the main bureau this time, but went to the prison to deal with the rest of Changhong's affairs, and then thanked the flattered Wei Guang, and then left the police station and walked towards the restaurant about a kilometer away.
And this meaning of not being lazy seems to be a bit esoteric.
Zhao Zhong didn't understand a little, so he didn't think much about it.
On the way to the restaurant, he also passed by Chen Haonan's supermarket and wanted to make a call to Chen Haonan, but thinking that Chen Haonan had been mixed with black before, he must have had a lot of files in the bureau, so in order to prevent embarrassment, he was not invited.
When he arrived at the restaurant, Zhao Zhong asked the waiter for a private room and ordered a few bottles of good wine. When the dishes are waiting for everyone to come, see what everyone likes to eat and then order it, and the provincial ones are not appetizing.
"Since you invite someone to dinner, it doesn't go your way."
Zhao Zhong pondered, and under the leadership of the waiter, walked into the private room on the second floor of the hotel.
As soon as you enter the door, it is not big, but it is very open, facing the setting sun.
Speaking of which, this seemingly high-end restaurant is actually only two stories high, which is considered to be low-to-medium grade.
Otherwise, a group of police officers came here for dinner, and it is estimated that they would have been reported by people with good deeds.
In this way, after Zhao Zhong waited for about twenty minutes, everyone arrived.
It's not polite, everyone should point and talk.
Subsequently, after the dishes were served, everyone ate and drank, and chatted about ordinary trivial matters.
During the period, when the glass was raised and the wine was high, Wang Xu, a reasonable person, only listened to Zhao Zhong and others talk about idle things, and did not interject.
But it was almost nine o'clock in the evening, and after the banquet was about to end, he took the opportunity to secretly settle the account on the pretext of going to the bathroom.
And in order to prevent the embarrassment of Zhao Zhong and others checking out, he also sent a text message to Zhao Zhong.
'Officer Zhao, I've got the money. Not much, less than a thousand. You don't have to pay it back. It's not because we have a good relationship, it's because you let me know a lot of police officers. ’
When Zhao Zhong received this text message, he didn't reply to him after glancing at it, and he should eat and drink with all the police officers as before, but the words were not so hidden.
At night.
After leaving the hotel, Zhao Zhong separated from the police officers, and then withdrew some money from the ATM, came to the clinic in the alley, and packed some of the medicinal meals that had been prepared and brought them back to the police station.
