Chapter Thirty-Six: The Shadow of the Shadows

As night fell, it was still snowing outside, but it was much smaller than before. Looking out of the window, a field of gold and silver reflected by the street lamps met colors.

"Uncle Lei, why don't you take a shower before going to bed, but do you want to wash now?" Li Bai looked at Lei Baoquan, who had just come out of the bathroom, and asked puzzledly.

"It's the same, don't you have to wash it in the morning and wash it in the evening?" Lei Baoquan said.

"But we're going out to dinner later." Li Bai reminded.

Lei Baoquan shook his head: "It's too cold outside, I don't want to go out." ”

"So you're going to do it at home?" Li Bai asked.

"Say it like you're going to do it." Lei Baoquan said with a smile.

Li Bai scratched his head and said, "I won't, if I don't have you, you will." ”

"I will, but I'm too lazy to do it, forget it, just bring me some when you go out to eat later." Lei Baoquan had already thought of this method.

Li Bai pursed his lips, with an expression of "I have seen through you a long time ago", and said: "You think beautifully, you are too cold, I am not too cold?" ”

"You have to compare yourself to me, a young man?"

When the two were arguing, Jin Guo pushed the door in and said with a smile: "Let's go, let's eat." ”

"Go, I've just taken a shower." Lei Baoquan smiled and began to blow his hair.

"What kind of bath to take at this time" Jin Guo didn't understand, so he was pulled out by Li Bai. The latter said, "Let's eat ours, alas, the sorrow of a single man." ”

"What do you mean?" Jin Guoyi laughed when he heard this.

"Isn't that clear? There is no one around to take care of him, and he is too lazy to cook, which is the sadness of a single man. Li Bai seemed to have seen through everything.

Jin Guo stared at him as he walked, and Li Bai asked when he saw this, "What do you think I'm doing?" ”

"I feel like you brought all three of us in with a word." Jin Guo said disdainfully.

The two of them walked downstairs and immediately felt a gust of cold wind blowing on their faces. The face shaving with snowflakes hurts.

"Where are you going to eat?" Li Bai said with his hands in his pockets.

"It's nearby, it's such a cold day, you can eat something on the side." Jin Guo pointed to the snack bar next to him and said.

Li Bai shook his head in disgust and said, "Forget it, eat here every day, no matter how delicious things are, you should eat and vomit." Take advantage of Uncle Lei's absence. Let's find a new restaurant! ”

"Then you can say it." Jin Guo nodded.

Li Bai looked around, the restaurants around him were all eaten by them, there was no novelty at all, Li Bai sighed and thought about it, and said: "I remember that the street next door opened a new one some time ago, and I always wanted to go, but I didn't have a chance, let's go to that one?" ”

Jin Guo thought for a while, but still agreed: "Let's go." ”

As soon as he finished speaking. But there is a "Huh? He looked behind Li Bai, as if he saw something.

Li Bai looked in the direction he was looking at, and there was nothing in the distance except street lights.

"What's wrong?" Li Bai asked.

Jin Guo just saw that there seemed to be a person hiding by the wall at the corner of the intersection and looking this way, but when he found it, the person suddenly retracted his head.

"It's okay, maybe I'm wrong." Jin Guo felt that he might really be wrong, who would do such a boring thing on such a cold day?

Li Bai didn't care, and shuddered. He beckoned, "Let's go, it's cold." ”

The two men walked briskly down a street. came to the newly opened restaurant that Li Bai said, which is a barbecue restaurant. Although the weather is bad today, it does not affect the business here at all, and there are still eight or nine tables full of people.

Li Bai and Jin Guo chose their seats, finished ordering the food, and sat on the side chatting.

"How? It's a nice place, isn't it? Li Bai saw that the place he chose was so popular. A little smug.

"It's really good, you see that the decoration is good, but the price of the food is not cheap." Jin Guo said truthfully.

"Hey, as long as it's delicious." Li Bai only cares about quality.

Jin Guo smiled and nodded, and unconsciously looked out the window.

Li Bai found out from just now that he was soulless. I looked around all the way, and I thought it was strange, so I asked, "Are you looking for something?" It's up to you from just now. ”

Jin Guo couldn't help but tell Li Bai what he had just seen, Li Bai was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then did not laugh at Jin Guo for being sensitive and suspicious as before, but asked seriously: "Brother Guo, you are not mistaken, right?" ”

"I've been looking for it because I'm not sure." Jin Guo is also at a loss.

Li Bai bit his lip with a worried look. Jin Guo withdrew his gaze from the window, and when he saw Li Bai like this, he also asked strangely, "Are you okay?" ”

Li Bai said thoughtfully: "Could it be that we are being targeted by that murderer?" ”

Jin Guo seemed to be reminded by his words, and said, "Who did I seem to hear last time say that? Don't say it, is it really possible? ”

Jin Guo, who was always fearless, also felt that it was possible, which made Li Bai even more worried, he and Jin Guo, who was sitting opposite, leaned forward with each other, lowered his voice and said: "I think we should pay more attention, if the murderer really feels that we pose a threat to him, maybe he will attack us." He's killed several of them anyway, and he won't care if there are a few more. ”

"Even if there is a threat to him, then he should go to Sun Duo and them, what does it have to do with us?" Jin Guo did not understand.

Li Bai waved his hand: "Didn't you say it last time?" Now compared to the police, we who are hiding in the shadows to investigate are the thorn in his side, and Uncle Lei is a master of solving cases, plus the two of us, within a few days, he will definitely be taken down! ”

"Are you sure we're the right man?" Jin Guo said with a smile.

"Don't worry about this, if what you just saw is really the murderer, then we are in potential danger now, maybe we are walking on the road at night, and suddenly a knife stretches out from in front of you" Li Baigang said this, and suddenly a pair of scissors appeared in front of the two, which startled them, and instinctively dodged back, making a "fight" posture.

Standing in front of them was a waiter who was also stunned by their movements, holding a pair of scissors in his right hand and a plate of meat in his left hand, looking at them in a daze.

"What are you going to do?" Li Bai asked.

The waiter blinked and said, "Help you cut the meat."

The cold wind was gaining momentum, and there was only snow dancing and flying under the street lamp, but the passers-by walking briskly around did not notice, under a street lamp, a figure stood straight there, looking through the large glass window of the barbecue restaurant opposite, looking at the two of them, who had no idea of the situation outside, just chatting with the waiter who was helping them cut meat while eating.
