Chapter 279: Quarrel
According to Leach's original conjecture, what they lost should be near Qinguo's house, or in the secret room of Qinguo's house, but combined with the information given by the beggar, it seems that things are not as simple as they imagined, and it seems that the investigation of Qinguo's family must continue.
The investigation that followed with Howard was not involved in Leach's involvement, and he really didn't have that much energy.
It's a pity that whether it is according to the information given by the beggar to investigate near the south gate, or Leach's monitoring of Qinguo alone, it has no effect.
Seeing that the client could arrive in the small town of Thermos at any time, Leach and his party became more and more agitated.
Howard is indeed conscientious, he will show up at the door of the hotel on time every day, Leach has not participated in the investigation in the past few days, he is not surprised, but he thinks that he has not helped much, and he has no confidence to take care of other people's affairs, so he has endured it and not asked.
After a period of buffering, Leach also relieved himself, and it was inevitable that he would not show up during the day to cause misunderstandings, so today he appeared again in the investigation team.
As a result, it is still unsatisfactory.
As is customary, they had lunch at Qin Guo's, and when they were leaving, the quarrel broke out without warning.
The first to speak was Tali, who was the most anxious. The fuse was Howard once again praising the suspect Qin Guo in front of everyone.
Howard was only born in poverty, did not receive any higher education, and had no opportunity to spend time drinking, and his praise for Qinguo was just a few words over and over again, either hardworking and beautiful, or kind and lovely, it was okay to listen to it once or twice, but it would always make people feel a little tired after listening to it too much.
In particular, the Qin Guo that the Leach five investigated privately seemed to be completely incompatible with kindness, which made them feel more and more bored.
"It's disgusting!" After listening to Howard's old-fashioned words of praise, Tali couldn't help but whisper.
The incident happened suddenly, and Leach didn't have time to stop it, and was praying that Howard didn't hear it, when he turned his head and asked, "What are you talking about?
The resentment accumulated over the past few days, coupled with the fact that she was poked in the sore spot, Tali couldn't care about Leach, who frequently glanced at her: "I said, I heard disgusting! That kind and beautiful Miss Qinguo of yours is probably not a good bird at all, and you almost praised her to the sky, I am really not ashamed!"
"You!" Howard exasperated.
Originally, he was only a little dissatisfied with Tali's disrespectful words, and it would be over with two complaints, but when he heard that Tali even scolded the goddess in his mind, he suddenly became really angry: "Nonsense! I know you are in a bad mood, I came to see that you lost something, and I don't want to be like you, but you are too much!"
"Miss Qinguo is such a kind person, how can you slander her so maliciously? Oh, I know, it must be you women who are jealous of Miss Qinguo's beauty, so they hate her. I mean, no wonder you always wear veils, because you're afraid that your appearance will scare others!"
Leach wanted to apologize for Tali and be a peacemaker, but when he heard Howard's bad words, he also felt displeased. If it weren't for the scruples of not making things bigger, he would have hated to "educate" this guy in front of him who didn't know the height of the sky.
Leach had some scruples, Tali didn't care about those who had it or not, she only thought it was funny for Howard to guess that they were ugly, and sneered when she heard the words: "Malicious slander? I don't have that idleness! I'm afraid you don't know yet, the most perfect goddess in your mind would have a private meeting with someone in the middle of the night! Surprised, surprised?"
"You're talking nonsense!" Howard was really angry this time, and rolled up his sleeves to teach the little guy in front of him a lesson.
As a result, it was naturally easily overturned by Tali to the ground.
Leach also had the intention of teaching him a lesson, and he didn't mean to stop Tali at all, which really made Howard fall hard and lie on the ground and snort.
Tali would not let go of the opportunity to beat the water dogs, and seeing that Howard would not be able to get up for a while, she continued to stimulate: "Do you think I am spreading rumors? It's a pity, no! Haven't you been wondering why our head hasn't shown up in the past few days? To tell you the truth, he went to spy on that Qinguo a few nights ago, and he really found a lot of wonderful things, do you want me to tell you a little bit?"
Probably because he was so angry, Howard forgot about the pain for a moment, jumped up from the ground, and pounced on Tali with red eyes.
Then he was thrown to the ground again.
Originally, Tali wanted to continue to taunt, but when she saw Howard lying on the ground, she suddenly cried, and couldn't help but be very speechless: "How old a person is and still crying, it's really shameless!"
Seeing that Howard was crying more and more, Tali, who was angry, finally remembered that it was not Howard who stole things, on the contrary, he was still busy with their affairs these days, and there was no merit and hard work, so his heart softened, and he stopped verbally attacking him: "Forget it, it's really boring, if you think I'm spreading rumors, then I'm spreading rumors, you can think whatever you like, anyway, we will definitely come up with evidence at that time, I hope you can be mentally prepared at that time, don't use power for personal gain." ”
With that, Tali grabbed Howard by the top and lifted him up, then beckoned Leach to leave.
As night fell, Leach set off again, this time not to target Qinguo, because she was being watched by Saya tonight, and Leach's target this time was the convicted waiters who stayed at Qinguo's restaurant.
The mysterious person that Leach found in Qinguo's house last time did not appear again, and after discussion, everyone thought that that person might be someone in the restaurant, after all, after this period of observation, Qinguo's social circle is so big, so Leach's trip is to verify whether this conjecture is correct.
When Leach jumped over the wall and into the backyard of the restaurant, the waiters were not asleep yet, and seemed to be playing cards together. However, at this time, these people kept scolding and swearing, showing their true colors as gangsters, which was very different from the polite appearance during the day.
While they weren't looking, Leach dodged behind a rockery near the table, intending to hear what they were saying and if there would be any important information.
But the result disappointed Leach again, in addition to shouting what cards to play and complaining to each other, all those people talked about was which little daughter-in-law in the town was handsome, and which mother-in-law was sassy enough, and she must have been cool in bed, without a serious word.
