Hot pot, watching the boiling in the pot, eating is hot in the heart.

Li Jun picked up a chopstick, soaked it up and down in the red soup, put it in his mouth, shook his head and sighed "comfortable", glanced at Nie Yi and Zhang Yunxi, who had not moved the chopsticks, and chirped a few times, "Eat..... Why are you sitting down, you're welcome, you have to rush to eat hot pot to be delicious...... Come, dry this hairy belly, let us be the companion of Hongchen, and eat chic....."

Zhang Yunxi's eyes were still fixed on Nie Yi, his fingers were rhythmically tapping on the table, and there was a fire burning in his heart.

Nie Yi lowered his head, not daring to look directly into Zhang Yunxi's eyes, feeling like the piece of hairy belly that Li Jun was holding with chopsticks, going back and forth in the hot air.

Zhang Yunxi put his mobile phone on the table, leaned to Nie Yi's side, snorted coldly, picked up chopsticks and took out a piece of fat cow that Li Jun had put in earlier from the pot, and threw it into Nie Yi's bowl, "Taste it and see if it still tastes the same as before..... Every time I eat hot pot, I have diarrhea, but I love the taste of this house, and I can't help but come back often.....

Nie Yi listened to the words "death will not change" in Zhang Yunxi's deliberately accentuated tone, swallowed his saliva, hurriedly stuffed the fat cow into his mouth, didn't care about burning his mouth, inhaled the cold air, quickly chewed a few times and swallowed it into his stomach, and squeezed out an ugly smile at Zhang Yunxi.

"Eat slowly," Li Jun pursed his mouth, "Your tongue is not easy to use, and if you burn it for a short time, won't you have to use sign language when you go out to handle cases in the future..... I said that it was delicious to rush to eat, and you really thought that I would not be able to rob you. ”

"Eat you, how ..... nonsense" Jang Yun-hee rolled his eyes at Li Jun, "You can't stop your mouth when you eat hot pot, are you a detective or a cross talk ......."

"I want to talk about cross talk, talking about cross talk can make more money than helping people investigate cases these days," Li Jun picked up a plate of silver carp and poured it into the pot, and pointed his finger at Nie Yi, "It's a pity that my partner is not good, and he can't say anything, wouldn't it cost him his life to let him talk about cross talk." ”

Zhang Yunxi picked up the teacup and took a sip, "Then break up the gang, you fly alone." ”

"That's not good," Li Jun shook his head, "Master said that the two of us are partners, the father-in-law will not leave the mother-in-law, and the scales will not be separated from the stone." Besides, if I don't follow him, he'll probably be splashed with dung every day....."

Nie Yi's face turned blue and red for a while, and he picked up a piece of fat intestine from the pot and put it in Li Jun's bowl, and said coldly, "Eat more....."

Li Jun stared at the fat intestine in the bowl, recalled a case investigated in Luteng City, and immediately retched.

Seeing that the faces of Nie Yi and Li Jun had become darker than the ashes of the pot, Zhang Yunxi covered his mouth and laughed, suddenly remembered something, picked up his mobile phone, swiped the screen a few times, and dialed a video call, "That's right..... My dad didn't know that you were back in City A, and he said that he would explain something to you when you returned to City A......"

The video call rang for a long time before it was connected, and Jang Yun-hee stared at the white-haired old man on the screen and pouted, "Why did it take so long to answer, I almost hung up....."

The white-haired old man coughed twice, "I was in the toilet just now..... You know that the toilet in my hometown is a bit far from the living room and bedroom, and it takes a little time to come and answer the phone. ”

Zhang Yunxi said "oh" softly, not caring at all, and said with a smile, "Dad, guess who I'm having hot pot with at noon today?" ”

The white-haired old man smiled, "You said so, it must be a rare guest..... Is it Nie Yi and Li Jun's two boys who are back? ”

Jang Yun-hee's face collapsed, "It's really boring, can't you pretend you can't guess, it's like this every time....."

Nie Yi and Li Jun immediately came to the screen and shouted "Master" respectfully.

The white-haired old man looked at the two energetic young people on the screen, nodded, and said without changing his face, "Didn't you go to Luteng City to investigate the missing case, why did you go back to City A so quickly, and the people found it?" ”

"Not yet.... There's something strange about things...."Nie Yizheng said, "Come back first.... Looking for information, by the way.... Help Yoon-hee.... Counting... Stuff ....."

"It is not easy to investigate the disappearance case, especially this kind of case that has been separated by 20 years," the white-haired old man said unhurriedly, "Don't blindly visit and investigate, first find the starting point of the matter, start from the details, and the more inconspicuous the clues, the more you must pay attention." There are also a lot of things to dig up from the employer who asked you to find someone, such as why you didn't look for it before, you only started looking for it after so many years, what is the unknown relationship with the missing person, you were sloppy in taking the case before, and you should be ordered without knowing anything, and the process of investigation can no longer be careless...."

"Stop, stop...."Zhang Yunxi interrupted the white-haired old man, "Can you not talk about the case every time you meet.... Dad, when are you coming back? ”

A complicated look flashed in the eyes of the white-haired old man, "I'll be back before your mother's birthday....." The words changed and said to Nie Yi and Li Jun, "Since you are back, there is no need to rush the disappearance case for the time being, stay in City A for a while, and wait for me to come back, and then I will have other arrangements for you....."

Li Jun and Nie Yi agreed in unison, as well-behaved as children.

Zhang Yunxi was about to say something, but suddenly saw a silver-haired woman walking behind the white-haired old man, and immediately asked with a gloomy face, "Why is that woman here?" ”

"Don't be big or small..... Your Aunt Yao only came to see me today," the white-haired old man coughed dryly, "just to talk to me, and help me cook or something.....

"Where's Aunt Xue? Didn't she go back with you, with her, where do you need other people to help you cook? ”

"I ran out of medicine, Wei Xue went to the hospital to prescribe medicine, and she won't come back until the afternoon..... He Yao came over to help...."

Zhang Yunxi didn't wait for the white-haired old man to finish speaking, then hung up the phone indignantly, kept muttering "fox spirit" in his mouth, and glared at Nie Yi and Li Jun, who were standing on both sides, "What do you see, the upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked, you two are not good things.....

Li Jun and Nie looked at each other and sat back in place.

The more Zhang Yunxi thought about it, the more angry he became, he immediately picked up his mobile phone again and dialed Huang Xiaoxiao's phone number, and as soon as the phone was connected, he couldn't wait to say, "Mom, do you know what Zhang Xiaoman is doing when he goes back to his hometown?" ”

Huang Xiaoxiao's stunned voice came from the phone, "I don't know, he just said to go back and do something, what's wrong?" ”

"Hmph, it's ..... to do things," Zhang Yunxi laughed angrily, "What can there be waiting for him to do in his hometown, I originally thought that he was just thinking quietly and wanting to distract himself..... Now my heart is scattered, and it is scattered to other women..."

"What scatters on other women.... He is only accompanied by your Aunt Xue, how can there be any other women..."

"Why not, that woman is in D City, not far from her hometown."

"Which woman?"

"He Yao, that vixen.... I just had a video call with Zhang Xiaoman and saw her in our old house...."

Huang Xiaoxiao said lightly, "It's here, there's nothing to make a fuss about, you also said that D City is so close to your hometown, it's normal for them to meet and chat." Originally, your father also told me when he left, this time he will go back to meet the old man. ”

"Then you can rest assured that he will go back alone," Zhang Yunxi's eyes burst out, and he was shocked, "That fox spirit thief is not dead, and you didn't know that he came to secretly find Zhang Xiaoman a few years ago..."

"Yunxi, don't you know what kind of person your dad is? When I was young, I wasn't afraid that he would run away with others, and now I'm even more afraid. Don't always call He Yao by a vixen, no matter how you say it, you are also your elder, don't let others think that you don't have a tutor. And also.... How much do you care about your father, I always feel like something is wrong with his body, and Wei Xue refuses to tell me anything.... Okay, that's it, I'm going to go to the Love Volunteer Association after dinner, it's almost the New Year recently, and things are piled up together, otherwise I will accompany your dad back to his hometown to relax...."

Zhang Yunxi wanted to say something more, but the call had been cut off by Huang Xiaoxiao, so he had to put down his phone angrily, "My heart is really big!" Wait for the vixen to take advantage of it, and regret it..."

Li Jun snorted and picked up a piece of tarpon, "Eat vegetables and eat vegetables, this fish will be cooked old if you don't eat it..."

"Eat, eat, eat, know to eat," Zhang Yunxi coldly glanced at Nie Yi, who bowed his head to eat vegetables, and Li Jun, who just straightened up to pick up vegetables, "I like to eat hot pot so much, I will let you eat enough today..... Waiter, 20 more tarpon! ”

"Okay!" The waiter replied with a smile, looking at Hou San and Zhu Dachang like two fat sheep waiting to be slaughtered, "Do you want to drink something, the small shop is famous for its burning knives..."

Hou San waved his hand and put the taxi key in a conspicuous place on the table intentionally or unintentionally, "Lao Tzu still has to drive after eating, don't drink while driving, don't drive when you drink, just burn the knife, hurry up and put the dishes on the table, Lao Tzu is hungry and has a heart close to his back...."

Zhu Dachang pursed his lips and interjected, "Third brother, my mouth is a little dry, I want to drink it all the time..."

"Just order whatever you want to drink," Hou Sanhao said dryly, "Anyway, you don't drive, let you eat and drink enough today, the third brother will have a treat, whatever you want." ”

The waiter immediately diligently turned the menu to the last page and handed it to Zhu Dachang, "The drinks are all here, and there is everything for white beer..."

Zhu Dachang closed the menu and said with a disappointed face, "I want to drink...... You don't have it on this..."

The waiter's eyes rolled, "The menu is just a little bigger, some are not written on it, you can tell me what you want to drink, it will definitely satisfy you." ”

"I want to drink.... Wahaha..."Zhu Dachang licked his lips, "Bring me two bottles.... No, I'm going to drink ten bottles! ”

The corner of the waiter's mouth twitched a few times, and he blinked, wondering if he had heard it wrong, "Please say it again...."

"Wahaha, it's the 'Wahaha, Wahaha, everyone's face is smiling', do you have it," Zhu Dachang looked at the waiter expectantly, "If you have, give me ten bottles." ”

"Yes...."The waiter struggled to keep a smile on his face, "Is that all there is to it?" Would you like to do something else..."

"No," Zhu Dachang rubbed his hands, "It's enough to have Wahaha, hurry up and get it, I'll drink it while waiting for the food to be served." ”

The waiter nodded, looked at Hou San and Zhu Dachang as if they wanted to speak and stopped, and did not leave immediately.

Hou San narrowed his eyes and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Nothing..... It's just that the two of you have ordered so many dishes..."The waiter squirmed, "Can you pay the cost of ordering food first...."

"Hey, it's the first time I've heard that you have to pay money for dinner," Hou San raised his eyebrows, "Claws, I'm afraid that Lao Tzu won't be able to pay it," took out the kraft wrapped rectangle from his arms, patted it on the table, and opened the kraft paper, "See no, Lao Tzu has money, although don't worry about boldly rolling to prepare food, Lao Tzu will pay together after eating!" ”

Zhu Dachang hurriedly covered the kraft paper again, "Third brother, wealth is not exposed, wealth is not exposed!" ”

The waiter glanced at the thick three stacks of red tickets, and immediately smiled, "Where is it, I'm also afraid that the two of you won't be able to eat and waste, now it seems that it is completely unnecessary, with the appetite of the two bosses, you can definitely eat it, hahaha.... I'll let the cook cook it for you, wait a minute..."

Zhu Dachang saw the waiter turn to leave, and shouted at the waiter's back, "Remember to hurry up and bring my Wahaha...."

Hou San took a sip on the ground, "Dogs look at people low...."Turning to Zhu Dachang, "If you go out to eat with me in the future, you can't order anything Wahaha, you are not a three-year-old doll, what do you drink Wahaha.... Remember, we are people who want to do great things, have you ever seen a person who does great things drink Wahaha, if we become famous in the future, your baby will become a thief god, and then someone will make a fuss about you drinking Wahaha, one to ten, ten to hundred, do you want to be cheeky..."

"Then I'm still not a thief, I don't even dare to drink Wahaha...."Zhu Dachang saw Hou San's face angry, pointed to the banknotes on the table that had been wrapped in brown paper again, and immediately changed the topic, "Third brother, do you really believe what the driver said, how can so many treasures be sold for 30,000 yuan...."

"Take it when you see it," Hou San took a sip of tea from his teacup, "Didn't you notice that someone has been following us since we came out of the operation center?" ”

"Huh?" Zhu Dachang's jaw almost dropped in shock, "What kind of person?" I really didn't notice..."

"Gray jacket .... When we were in the operation center, the turtle son slipped quietly from the side of the corridor to the toilet, and he thought I didn't see it. Lao Tzu just pretended not to know," Hou San sneered, "I guess he is the second Song Lao that the driver said, most likely he wants to give Lao Tzu a praying mantis to catch cicadas and yellow finches." Fortunately, Lao Tzu withdrew quickly, otherwise he wouldn't even be able to keep the 30,000 yuan..."

Zhu Dachang opened his mouth widely, "Oh.... No wonder the third brother didn't let the driver down when you left...."

"So, shouting that you read more than a day," Hou San said smugly, "When Lao Tzu read the Thirty-six Strategies, those turtle sons were still digging their noses and eating and fighting with me.... Moreover, Lao Tzu still has a hand...."

Zhu Dachang held his face, looked at the TV on the wall of the restaurant with relish, and asked casually, "What?" ”

Hou San took another sip of tea, "Originally, Lao Tzu just wanted to exchange that bag of things for our baby, but now that the turtle son said that he had sold the baby, we will keep the bag of things, if it only sells for 30,000 yuan, forget it, if it's more than that.... Lao Tzu used that bag of things to blackmail him, and little by little he made him spit out the money that had been pitted by us...."

"Then why did he use that bag of things to wrap our treasures..."

"That's his brilliance, if you think about it, if an ordinary person encounters this kind of thing, he must have been so frightened that he hurriedly threw away the bag of things, which is equivalent to helping him destroy the evidence..... It's a pity that we have encountered a murderous bandit like us, how can this kind of scene bluff us...... As long as this bag of things is there, it is equivalent to pinching the tail of the turtle son, and he can't run off..."

At this moment, the waiter came over with a large plate of dishes, and Hou San coughed lightly, "Okay, let's not talk about these things yet.... Eat, eat, let's drive the car back to him, and then Lao Tzu will take you to 'Jiangnan Hao' to rub your back in the evening, and a beautiful and happy new life is coming..."

Zhu Dachang stared at the dishes on the table and swallowed wildly, grabbed a braised pig's trotter and bit it down, and nodded heavily.

After a storm, the table was full of messes, Zhu Dachang gave a long burp, and said contentedly, "Third brother, I can't eat..."

Hou San took a toothpick and kicked the gap between his teeth, stood up, and exhaled a long breath, "When you're full, leave...."

Seeing this, the waiter immediately took the calculator and walked up to Hou San with a smile on his face, "Big brother, is our dish still to your liking?" ”

Hou San glanced at the waiter, "So-so... Don't talk so much nonsense, settle your accounts...."

The waiter laughed dryly, crackling in the calculator for a long time, "Chenghui, you spend a total of 1,380 yuan, and you can give you a discount here, you can give 1,300." ”

"What Lao Tzu eats, it will cost 1300, dragon meat..."Hou San's eyelids jumped, "There are a total of 15 dishes, 10 bottles of Wahaha...."

The waiter took out a menu marked with a price, "You see, our dishes are all clearly priced, but we don't charge you a penny more." ”

"Hey, why didn't the menu you gave us earlier have no price.... I'm afraid you're not opening a black shop...."Hou San glanced at the menu roughly, "Forget it.... Lao Tzu admitted it today, it doesn't matter if this money is paid, Lao Tzu can still afford it...."

The waiter saw Hou San pull out a stack of brown paper, immediately pointed to the cash register, and said with a slight smile, "Please go to the cash register to pay the bill." ”

Hou San grinned impatiently and muttered, "There are a lot of farts going through the motions...."

Walking to the cash register, Hou San slapped the counted thirteen red tickets on it, and was about to turn around and leave, but was stopped by Zhu Dachang.

Zhu Dachang pointed to the TV on the wall, "Third brother..... Our baby...."

Hou San turned his head to look and saw a news item playing on the TV, and the news picture was the bag of jewelry they had stolen from the villa.

The host narrated the news in a subdued tone, with the title "The police department detected the counterfeit money case, Shun Teng touched the melon to capture the fake jewelry sales group, and the fake money was exchanged for fake jewelry, and the city will play?" ”

Hou San's mind was suddenly shocked, and he looked back at the cash register blankly, and happened to see the waiter pick up the red tickets on the table and put them into the money detector one by one....
