Chapter 31: Cellmates
On the opposite side of the barbecue stall, stood Jiang Dongming and Lao Qian.
Because of something on the weekend, Jiang Dongming also returned to the city after following Xiaofan. And because he wanted to plot something with Lao Qian, he deliberately pretended not to drive himself, and had to ask the family driver to send him.
Although Ji Zhaojun hated his face, he was not willing to tell him more, so he went with him. Anyway, the so-called family driver of the Ji family is just a decoration, and most of his duties are to watch the gate and help Lao Feng take care of the garden, which is only used when Judy goes out. If it weren't for the fact that Lu Xiaofan had a good relationship with Lao Qian and often went to deliver food or something, Ji Zhaojun wouldn't even know that there was Lao Qian's deposit.
It's not that he is over-the-top and arrogant, it's that he's used to being indifferent, used to not being close to others, and he doesn't have a sense of belonging to the Ji family, so he doesn't care about anything and doesn't care.
"Doesn't that really raise suspicion?" On the way, Lao Qian was still a little worried.
"Don't worry, I'm used to it, and it's natural to do anything nasty." Jiang Dongming was very confident, "I need to study the following plan with you, and I can't finish it in half a sentence." Although you can also talk a few words in Jijia, it is easy to be noticed after a long time. Judy has been in the house for too long, and she is haunted all day long, and no one knows where her cat is or what she is staring at. Otherwise, how could Lu Xiaofan be toyed with by her? ”
"Also, we don't need to guard against Ji Zhaojun. He seems to be very busy and disdainful of these small means, so he has always taken a defensive posture towards you, and rarely takes the initiative to attack except for the last time when you were in a hurry. ”
"That's right." Jiang Dongming nodded, "Judy is different. This woman loves the tricks of the sinister under the table. Although it is stupid in big things, all kinds of small tricks are piled up, and it is really difficult to prevent it. ”
So the two of them left the house for a day, and after finishing their work and chatting, Jiang Dongming temporarily thought of coming to see Lu Xiaofan, and he had to surprise her. It's a pity that his ability to remember the road is really not strong, and it is daytime when he goes up and back, and at night, the complicated, narrow and chaotic road conditions here are illuminated by the lights. He...... Lost.
As a last resort. They had to stop and ask for directions, and the place where they stayed was opposite the barbecue stall where Lu Yu and Liu Chunli met, in front of the store. Coincidentally, I witnessed the scene where Xiao Wu and Lu Yu "recognized". It was as if there was a providence in the dark.
"Isn't that Lu Yu and Xiao Fan's brother-in-law?" It was the sharp-eyed Jiang Dongming who was the first to discover it. "When did they get along well enough to drink and talk together?"
Old money looked over. But he didn't say anything, only his eyes flashed, and his brows habitually wrinkled.
"Do you know that man?" Jiang Dong asked with Lao Qian's face on his face.
"I really know each other." Old Qian said. While waving his hand to let Jiang Dongming get into the car, he turned the car around, didn't ask for directions, and followed Xiao Wu directly.
After crossing a street, Lao Qian stopped the car, walked two steps quickly, and went around to the front of Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu was touching the thick stack of money in his pocket, and when he looked up, he found that the figure reflected in the street lamp was blocking him. He opened his mouth to scold, but his eyes crashed into a familiar face.
is different from the people in police uniforms you usually see, at this time Lao Qian is wearing civilian clothes. Fortunately, the Ji family did not have the habit of letting the driver wear uniforms, otherwise his identity would not be able to be concealed. But that face and the vaguely revealing momentum are still the majestic appearance of the year.
"Money...... Team Qian, why are you here? Xiao Wu stammered in surprise, and the hand in the bag tightened. This money can't be mistaken for stealing, right? No, it's really deserved!
How could I think that Lao Qian's attitude can be said to be pleasant, and he has no intention of pursuing or interrogating at all, "Don't call it the money team, I retired three years ago." ”
"How did you retire? You're a detective, and you're going to make the bad guys famous. Besides, you're not old yet, are you? Xiao Wu smiled, his face full of flattery and stammering.
Lao Qian pressed his heart, "I am not in good health, I had heart bypass surgery three years ago, and I am not suitable for high-intensity work." It's you, why did you get here? ”
"There are many job opportunities in big cities, and I have been here for more than half a year." Xiao Wu smiled, "But I promise that I have never done anything bad, and I have always worked honestly and hard." The money team has taught me so many times, and I have a long memory. ”
Lao Qian looked Xiao Wu up and down, forced himself to divert his attention, and went straight to the point, "You are right, there are many job opportunities in big cities, then you should be a good person, don't be a traitor again, don't be arrested again." ”
"Don't worry, I've long since changed my ways." Xiao Wu said beautifully, but he was stared at by Lao Qian's eyes, and he quickly changed the subject, "It's so late, what are you ......?"
"Exercise late and walk away from home." Lao Qian seemed to say very casually, "I saw you at the barbecue stall over there just now, you talked to two people, you looked very affectionate, who are they?" Isn't it...... 'Collaborated' together in the past? ”
Xiao Wu instinctively wanted to lie, for example, saying that he was actually just asking for directions, and he didn't know Lu Yu at all. But although Lao Qian's eyes were calm and his tone was gentle, the prestige that had been formed over the years was still there, and he didn't dare. I thought again, he and Lu Yu were just old acquaintances, and they didn't conspire to do anything bad, so don't be afraid.
So he simply said straightly, "Those two, I only know one, they are friends I met many years ago, and it was a coincidence just now, so I met on the street and chatted a few words." ”
"The one who grows a little strong is called Lu Yu, right?" The old money directly broke the name.
Xiao Wu was startled, and then his heart raced, and he came up with his own answer, "You haven't retired yet, have you?" Or even if you retire, you will still play your spare heat in the bureau. Lu Yu's kid is committing a crime, right? You're staring at him, and that's when you see me, right? I knew he couldn't change his! ”
"Getting to the point!" Lao Qian didn't admit or deny it, and asked directly.
"The point is...... The point is, I really just met him by chance, and I haven't been in touch for seven or eight years. Xiao Wu was a little anxious, for fear that something would affect him, "I don't have a good personal relationship with him, but I lived in a room with him when I was in prison before." ”
"Cellmate?"
"Pure cellmate!"
"Why did he go in?"
"In a fight, I missed and injured someone."
"Which prison? I know you're a wanderer, and you've been in many big places across the country. ”
Xiao Wu pretended not to hear the sarcasm in Lao Qian's tone, and hurriedly reported the name of the prison, indicating that he and Lu Yu were not fellow villagers, not friends, or had lived together for a few months, and he just had a good memory. Even, even the date of acquaintance took the initiative to confess, and crackled and said some things in prison, which were very irrelevant.
