Chapter 182: Lin Jie's Purpose
I was even more confused, and unconsciously quickened my pace.
After a few moments, he finally arrived outside the room and knocked on the door, which was slowly opened.
"Yo, little man, you're slow! We've all been waiting for you for a long time! ”
The guy who opened the door was the blonde chick who stepped on the violent shoes before. It was this guy who stole my phone and left a message on it telling me to meet me at the hotel.
The blonde chick has her loose hair tied up, a lollipop in her mouth, and a bag of potato chips in her other hand. Looking at her appearance now, it is estimated that she is about eighteen years old, and she should still be in school, but she didn't expect that she would also be involved in this troubled water.
"Something happened, so I came late."
"Wow, little man, are you going to have a secret tryst with your Snow White, so leave us people aside?"
“。。。。。”
I ignored her, and went into the room, a huge room that was almost full of people. First of all, Da Niu and Lu Yuan sat at the front of the room.
Lu Yuan, a rough man of more than 1.8 meters, stayed with the big cow, and really looked a little birdy.
After getting closer, Lu Yuan only asked me about my physical condition weakly, and said that my dislocated shoulder had been fixed with a triangular scarf, so I didn't have to worry too much.
This guy has a solemn face, like he has just been beaten up, to be honest, I haven't seen such an expression on his face for a long time, what happened to Lu Yuan?
"Yo, Goofy, you're back, are things going well?" On the other side, Sister Yue'er was holding a bottle of beer and greeted me excitedly. It's my room, but she's set up like a party, and I'm starting to regret leaving her here in the first place.
originally hoped to use her ability to find out Yin Jiahui's specific information from the underground network of Z City, but this woman was extremely unreliable, and she didn't find out any fart information, which really caused us trouble.
I skipped Sister Yue'er and looked directly at the innermost part of the room.
On the bar by the window, there was a figure sitting vaguely. Because the lights weren't turned on, I couldn't figure out what the figure looked like, so I could barely tell that the figure in front of me should be a woman based on what she was wearing and the posture she was sitting on.
The woman crossed Erlang's legs, leaned on the seat, and held a goblet in one hand and shook the red wine in it comfortably, quite a bit like taking the lead, and these guys outside were naturally all her thugs.
From the moment I entered the house, I felt that the woman's eyes were staring at me like a torch, just as I was paying attention to her now, and the woman was also paying attention to me, and it seemed that she should be the "old friend".
I turned my head to look at Lu Yuan, who nodded at me slightly, motioning for me to lean over and meet the woman.
Swallowing his saliva, he slowly walked towards the woman's side.
With the approach of the distance and the change of light and shadow, the woman's appearance slowly appeared in front of me, with sharp short hair, a bright red coat, a tall nose bridge, and an aura that was not lost to a man at all, I never imagined that the woman who appeared in front of me would actually be Ji Yan's ex-wife, Lin Jie!
When I was in the black gold case, I had already met Lin Jie. At that time, the murderer's last target actually chose Ji Yan's daughter, Huahua.
Although Lin Jie and Ji Yan have divorced, because of Ji Yan's murder, Lin Jie had to come forward to protect her biological daughter.
That night, she was directly stabbed by the crazy Huahua and was seriously injured, and it would have been impossible for ordinary people to do it a long time ago, but Lin Jie was stunned and recovered within a few days.
If that "old friend" is Lin Jie, then it can explain why Lu Yuan has maintained such a-eating appearance since I entered the house. When he was in the police academy, this guy and Ji Yan pursued Lin Jie at the same time, but unfortunately Ji Yan took the lead.
The two who once possibly became lovers, seeing each other after more than ten years, have long been different. One of them had been to two weddings and was already a wife, while the other was still a single nobleman and had never even taken a girl's hand.
If it's not embarrassing to meet, then there's a ghost.
"Great detective, long time no see." It was still that cold tone, and I couldn't guess what she was thinking.
"Well, long time no see!"
Lin Jie motioned for me to sit aside, gently opened the red wine bottle on the side, and poured some into the other goblet.
"Brought from France, drink a little first, as for catching up and chatting or something, take your time, anyway, I have time today."
Still in that commanding tone, she poured the wine almost without giving me a chance to refute it.
Although I don't know much about red wine, looking at the French and the words 1988 on the bottle, I know that the bottle in her hand is very expensive, and it is estimated that it can cover the price of many food stalls for me
Lin Jie's personality is strong at best, and "domineering president" at worst. Although a woman like her is beautiful, because her personality is too strong, few men will like it.
It's just that Lu Yuan and Ji Yan are the few people, and the two of them even like her at the same time, but unfortunately, after so many years, although Lin Jie's personality has not changed, we have long been different.
Lu Yuan got mixed up with the sheriff of Huayuan City, and I was fired from the police academy and made a living by being a detective. As for Ji Yan, he was buried underground for a long time, and he could rest forever.
Thinking of this, I suddenly felt that my eyes were a little moist, and Lin Jie probably guessed what I was thinking, raised her glass, and motioned for me to try the red wine in the glass.
A large sip of red wine entered his throat, and the sour taste and spicy feeling immediately relieved the suppressed pain in his heart. I also know that red wine is supposed to be tasted, but since I'm a rough person, I don't pay so much attention to it.
"By the way, why are you here?" I remember that Lin Jie was all focused on investigating the cause of Ji Yan's death, why is she involved in the dispute in Z City now?
Lin Jie put down her wine glass, smiled, and said slowly: "Maybe, it's because you need me, or maybe it's because I need you, in short, please give me more advice in the future." ”
With that, she reached out and pulled out a card from her purse and handed it to me.
It was a square card, and the moment she pulled out the card, a familiar feeling came over her.
My hands trembled unconsciously, and the moment I clenched the card, I just felt that my whole body was about to explode. The card in Lin Jie's hand was the invitation letter from apartment No. 37 of House L that I had seen before, but this invitation was her own, and my share was given to me by Tang Yurou.
"You also have an invitation, where did you get it?"
Lin Jie looked at the invitation in her hand, and her resolute eyes suddenly became deep: "It was my current husband who helped get it, and he told him that if he went to this place, he might have a chance to find out the cause of Ji Yan's death." ”
What, No. 37 L Mansion is related to Ji Yan's cause of death? If that's the case, no wonder Tang Yirou did everything he could to stop me from going there! Suddenly, the nightmare that the Black Gold City experienced reappeared before my eyes.
However, compared to this, I am even more surprised that Lin Jie's current husband can give him this invitation. If I'm not mistaken, her current husband is not small, and she should know that Lin Jie and Ji Yan were once married.
The invitation letter was issued by Yu Tianlong, and the number is limited, so it is quite difficult to get it, and it is estimated that only people of Lao Yan's status can get it.
can help his wife so much and investigate the cause of her predecessor's death, Lin Jie's current husband's mind is really not small.
"Hehe, you're thinking too much!" Lin Jie glanced at me again, and seemed to guess what I thought again: "My husband is not as knowledgeable as you think, I and he are just agreeing to marry for their own interests, he has his own lover outside, and I also have my own life, this help is just for him to repay the favor he owes me." ”
, even marriage can be an agreement, Lin Jie is really domineering enough, but since she and her husband are only in name, does that mean that Lu Yuan's turtle grandson has a chance to get rid of the single.
I subconsciously wanted to look back at Lu Yuan and give this guy a look or something. I didn't expect that this guy was already standing behind me, with an old face stretched as if he owed him money.
Lu Yuan glanced at me, immediately moved, took out something from his pocket and slapped it on the table, when I saw it, I was not good.
What Lu Yuan photographed, it was an invitation to No. 37 L House, plus the one in my hand, this is the third one that has appeared!
