In the afternoon class, Jiang Jiang Mu opened the political economy textbook, and the invoice was lying inside. He watched carefully, a little incomprehensible.

That is, why did the murderer give a notice this time?

Like the previous three murders, they were never known after the fact. Only this time.

This invoice is a machine-typed VAT invoice, the amount is so large, the time is not more, it is exactly half past eight, is it a coincidence? It coincides with the meeting time written in the back paragraph.

It is conceivable that this murderer has a lot of money, and for the sake of hatred, he made up 1997 yuan, no more than no less.

So how is this done? He took out his mobile phone, checked the menu of the Narcissus Hotel, and kept searching for the dishes to see how he could order it for 1,997 yuan.

Squirrel osmanthus fish 260 yuan

Camphor tea duck 150 yuan

Lamb in a casserole is 200 yuan

Black chicken soup 220 yuan

Fried lamb with green onions is 180 yuan

Cantonese steamed bamboo shoot shell fish 220 yuan

Tea tree mushroom fried beef tenderloin 250 yuan

Fortune conpoy sea emperor soup 200 yuan

Tofu crosses the bridge for 100 yuan

Stir-fried flower nails 180 yuan

Vegetables in soup 37 yuan-

If you order these dishes, it can be equal to 1997 yuan. But if you order it like this, you have to eat at least seven or eight people to finish it. If there is only one murderer, ordering so many and wasting it in the end, it should attract attention.

Next, the invoice unit issued by the murderer was the municipal government, indicating that he was a cadre of the government at least at the section level, and it was not quite possible for him below the section level to eat so much cauliflower and spend so much money. Unless it's fake.

Look at the words on the back again, the bright red glare -

In 1997, think about what you did, right? Isn't what happened to me because of you? Hopefully you'll remember, and then we'll talk.

At half past eight in the evening on November 20, I went to Zhongshan Bridge on Jiangbin South Road. We haven't seen each other in years, because you've been hiding from you-

In 1997, where did Gao Taiyang's father offend the murderer, because of something that made the murderer hold a grudge for more than ten years. What is the relationship between this father and the leader of the sports group, Yong Yule, Deputy Minister Yu Jiaao, and Fengzhong Liu?

The latter two are not included in the list mentioned in the old archives. Aren't the killers holding a grudge against the members of the basketball game?

The direction is a bit tortuous, and it is no longer so straightforward and easy to get an answer.

Jiangxi Mu crossed his fingers to support his chin, and his eyes became sharper and sharper, just like a high-flying falcon staring at its prey.

The murderer must be caught on the 20th and let him tell the truth. These things will definitely threaten Tai Changyin. As an official of Tai Changyin, he must have known what was not disclosed in the 1996 robbery and prison case.

Before he knew it, he pulled up the old file he had taken last time, and the picture on it - a picture of several players playing basketball - felt that he had something to rely on.

At the end of class, Jiangxi Mu stopped Gao Taiyang, "Wait a minute." ”

"What's wrong?" Gao Taiyang asked suspiciously.

"Tonight, let's go to the Narcissus Hotel and check it out." Jiangxi Mu said lightly: "With such a special invoice, the waiter should have an impression." ”

"Really? Can you really find out who threatens my dad? Gao Taiyang was very excited.

Jiangxi Mu didn't say clearly, "Give it a try." ”

The two hit the Narcissus Hotel. The last time I came, it was to celebrate the finals of the economics basketball team. Now, I feel that there is a kind of cold from the bones, is it caused by the cold wind?

The cold wind was blowing, and the fallen leaves were like flying moths, hitting the body, sticking and refusing to leave. It wasn't until I entered the hotel and saw the soft white light that I felt a little warm.

The Narcissus Hotel is naturally the best hotel in the city, and in the palatial golden hall, dozens of round tables of various sizes are set around, and people are playing beautiful piano music on the high platform.

"Hello, do you have a reserved seat?" A waitress in a tuxedo bent over and asked very politely.

Gao Taiyang waved his hand. Jiangxi Mu took out the VAT invoice, "We picked up this invoice and want to return it to the lost person." Can you take a look at it, do you still have an impression of this invoice? ”

The waiter smiled and took the invoice and looked it up and down, "Judging from this date and time, I issued this invoice, and I was in charge of making the invoice at that time." But I can't remember who opened it. With that, I pulled up the video. ”

Then the waiter led them to the cash register 50 meters west of the entrance to the hall, "Two, please wait." ”

The waiter consulted with the others, and after a while he operated the computer and checked the video. While waiting, Jiangxi Mu looked at the hotel boredly. The cash register is made of pure white marble, which is clean and does not stain a trace of dust. There are seven waiters inside, and they are well-trained to serve the guests who pay the bills.

"Two, I've found out." The waitress smiled.

Gao Taiyang immediately asked, "Who is it?" There was anger in his tone.

Jiangxi Mu didn't have such an idea, and felt that there must be twists and turns.

"It turned out to be Director Tai, he ate with a few people, and finally Director Tai settled the bill." The waitress replied.

Tai often quotes?

Jiangxi Mu jumped out of this name in his heart. How is he?

"Is there anything else I can help with?" The waitress asked with a smile.

"Thank you." Jiangxi Mu turned around and walked out. Gao Taiyang wanted to ask more things, but he didn't ask too much and left.

Out of the Narcissus Hotel, Gao Taiyang was like an angry bull, and said very resentfully: "It turns out that this person wants to hurt my father, I have to settle accounts with him!" "Anyway, I really went to the side of the road and had to stop a taxi.

Jiangxi Mu grabbed him and smashed a fist on his chest.

Gao Taiyang clutched his chest, frowned and half-squinted his eyes, and shouted loudly: "What are you doing!" ”

"Nothing, just to calm you down." Jiangxi Mu said coldly.

A cold wind blew, making it even more gloomy.

"In the video, there is just a checkout of Tai Changyin, that's all!" Jiangxi Mu said the last few words very seriously, "Although this director is very suspicious, but just based on the video, what can you do with him?" In the end, it was you, not him, who was taken away by the police. ”

"Who's that?" Gao Taiyang roared. A few pedestrians walking on the side were so frightened that they hurried away, mistaking it for a nervous disorder.

"All I can say is that we will have the results on the 20th." Jiangxi Mu walked to the side of the road and stretched out his hand to stop the taxi. The taxi slowly stopped on the side of the road, Jiang Jiang Mu opened the car door, and said to the resentful Gao Taiyang: "You go home first and see if you can ask anything from your father's mouth." ”

The two sat in the car, and Gao Taiyang reluctantly told the driver the address of his home, "Help me send it to Nanjing Huayuan on Nanjing Middle Road first." ”

There was silence in the car, except for the driver's stereo and the road condition radio. Both turned their heads out of the window and did not speak.

When the car turned into Chixia Road, Gao Taiyang finally broke the silence: "Thank you very much tonight, I did it wrong before." ”

"Nothing, I've forgotten." Jiangxi Mu said lightly.

"I thought you would refuse, but I really couldn't find anyone at that time, so I tried to ask you." Gao Taiyang's tone was full of guilt: "It seems that I am the one with a small belly." ”

"There are still a lot of things in this world that you need to be patient with, and if you don't endure it, you will inevitably be eliminated by the world." Jiang Jiang Mu leaned against the saddle, crossed his hands in front of his chest, and squinted.

Gao Taiyang sincerely admired others for the first time, he always felt that he was better than others before, but now it seems that he is not as good as this new student. What he said and did was as if he had experienced a great calamity, and he saw everything in the world.

The car stopped slowly, and when Gao Taiyang closed the car door, he said softly: "Thank you." ”

Jiangxi Mu ignored it and left with the car.

In the car, Jiangxi Mu slowly closed his eyes, thinking about what he had just seen. This director of Tai Changyin seems to be a very key figure, and in the second murder case, he had an argument with Yu Jiaao, which is a revelation on the Internet. Now it appears again in this "teaser case" full of puzzles.

What role did this person play? Is it the mastermind, or is it an innocent person who is being taken advantage of?

Let's wait until the 20th.

On the afternoon of the 20th, Gao Taiyang said in the dormitory and asked his roommates to go together. Wang Shugui and Wu Meng both said that they would go together to help, and Ouyang Jiankang raised his hand tremblingly, "Can I not go to ......?"

Gao Taiyang stared at the bull's eye, and Ouyang Jiankang immediately stopped talking.

Jiangxi Mu said lightly: "Don't think you can catch someone." If you have limited ability, don't go to so many people. ”

Gao Taiyang just wanted to bring these roommates, "There is a lot of power in the crowd, besides, there are so many people in Zhongshan Bridge, I don't believe that bastard dares to hurt people." ”

"What's your dad's state these days?" Jiangxi Mu was playing on the computer on the top bunk, as if he had nothing to do with himself.

Gao Taiyang lowered his head and sighed: "It's still not good, except for opening his mouth when eating, he didn't speak at any other time." I even saw that he was writing a will. I was quite angry at the time and just shredded it. Then he clenched his fist, and the green tendons on the surface of the fist appeared little by little, "What kind of enmity does this person have with my father, and he actually wants to hurt my father!" ”

"Didn't your dad say that, what happened in 1997?" Wu Meng said with some worry: "Do you want to call the police?" ”

"Didn't you say that you wouldn't give a report-" Ouyang Jiankang said weakly, but when he saw everyone's disdainful gaze, he shrunk his neck even shorter.

"If you really catch that man, I'll give you a thousand dollars for each of you, as a reward." Gao Taiyang stepped on the stool with one foot, straightened his body, and spoke with considerable confidence.

The others were silent and agreed.

In the evening, the five people in the dormitory went to Zhongshan Bridge on Jiangbin North Road together. It was already 8:20 a.m. After getting out of the car, they walked under a large tree and blocked them in the shade of the tree.

"Why don't you get there earlier?" Wangshugui asked in a low voice.

Jiang Xi Mu crossed his hands on his chest, "The trailer is written at half past eight, what's the point of going so early." ”

"What about your dad?" Ouyang Health looked around, trembling all over.

"I haven't seen it yet." Gao Taiyang was also anxious at this time.

Ouyang Jiankang's face turned pale and trembled, "I'll help you buy water...... I couldn't stand the pee......" Then he trotted all the way with his schoolbag to the public toilet more than 100 meters to the east.

Wangshugui sighed: "Cowardly as a mouse, the bad guy hasn't arrived yet, and I'm scared to pee first." ”

Jiang Jiang Mu looked at his phone, and the cold light projected the four numbers of 20:25. There are still five minutes left, and the time for the murderer's notice is coming.

They were sitting precariously staring at the Zhongshan Bridge, constantly searching for everyone, and beads of sweat were dripping from their foreheads.
