Monday afternoon, Gusu City, Wuyue Province.

Luo Xing and Lao Shen walked on the bluestone road in Zhouzhuang Ancient Town in civilian clothes.

The two of them looked around, similar to the bustling tourist crowd on this ancient street, and Luo Xing still had a Kodak point-and-shoot camera around his neck.

Lao Shen touched Luo Xing: "Team Luo, isn't that one?" ”

Luo Xing looked in the direction that Lao Shen pointed to, it was a small shop, and the name was simply "Scenic Tobacco Shop". It is also an area of seven or eight square meters, and there is a sign hanging outside, which reads "Fidelity cigarettes, soft drinks, ice cream, pay telephone." ”

Due to the large flow of visitors in the scenic spot, there are really many people in this small shop, there are gay men buying cigarettes, and children are noisy drinking soda, eating ice cream, and even selling facial tissues. It's enough to choke the boss.

The owners of this small shop are a family of two. I must be forty or fifty years old. The man is not tall, bald, not thin, and walks with a slight limp. The woman is a little taller than the man, the short hair is baked yellow, and the general thing of finding and picking up the goods is done by the woman, and the man is responsible for taking the goods for the guests and collecting the money.

Wait for the couple to finish this wave. Luo Xingcai walked over and took out a piece of fifty yuan: "Two boxes of three or five." ”

The male boss quickly took out two boxes of three or five from the counter and handed them to Luo Xing along with the change he had recovered.

Luo Xing gave Lao Shen a box of cigarettes, took back the change from the wallet and said, "The boss has a good business." ”

The boss smiled and said, "Business is okay, you are from the Northeast, this accent is quite obvious." ”

Luo Xing smiled and said: "Yes, in the northeast, Yandu in the northern province, have you heard of it?" ”

The boss said, "I've really heard that some customers over there have also bought things from me." Three Su cigarettes, saying that they went back to share them with friends. You have a tire factory there. ”

Luo Xing said: "Yes, it's a big factory, I'm not over there, I work in Jiangnan Province, Pingzhou City, Jiangnan Province, you should be quite familiar." ”

The boss's expression was unnatural: "I'm not familiar, I haven't been there." ”

At this time, Lao Shen had already opened the cigarette, gave Luo Xing one, and helped him light it again.

Luo Xing took a puff of his cigarette and said, "Jiao Jian, it won't be interesting if you talk like this." ”

Jiao Jian didn't say anything yet, his daughter-in-law, who had been listening to the movement on the side, came over: "What are you doing, our family has been in Pingzhou, it has been almost ten years, and there are no acquaintances of ours over there, if you say something that is not necessary, we can call the police." ”

As he spoke, he picked up the phone on the counter.

Luo Xing said: "You don't need to call the police, we are the police." ”

Luo Xing took out his documents.

The proprietress said: "The police can't do it, we haven't broken the law, and we haven't broken the law in Pingzhou before, you can't find us, hurry up, we still have to do business!" ”

It's really a coincidence, after the proprietress said this, another wave of guests really walked in, and it seemed that they were all in a tour group. Wears the same red sunhat.

Luo Xing put away his documents, took two bottles of Coke in the freezer, gave Lao Shen a bottle, found five yuan in change, put it on the counter, and the two went out, smoking and drinking Coke at the door.

After waiting for this wave of guests to leave, Luo Xing walked in again: "Jiao Jian, we have no malicious intentions. Looking for you is not about looking for your trouble. ”

Jiao Jian smiled and said: "This is fresh, you police are not looking for me trouble, is it still a good thing?" ”

Luo Xing said: "What your daughter-in-law said just now is right, you are doing business honestly here, how can it be a bad thing for us to find you, let me say it directly, we are running for Cheng Qisheng." ”

Jiao Jian's face changed: "Cheng Qisheng, I don't know who Cheng Qisheng is." Ask someone else! ”

Another guest came, and Luo Xing couldn't affect people's business, so he had to go out.

Luo Xing said: "This will not work. ”

Lao Shen said: "Yes, there will be a guest without saying a few words, otherwise bring him to the Gusu City Bureau." ”

Luo Xing said: "That's the next step. Have you ever heard a sentence that the person who knows you best is your enemy, this Jiao Jian is very strange, how can he be beaten, even if his leg is broken, and then he runs so far away, and he never mentions revenge. ”

Lao Shen said: "Yes, the day before yesterday, let's go to my master, didn't my master say that Jiao Jian was serious in Pingzhou at that time, but he was serious about No. 1, and Liu Wu was scared away after a few words of half-grown children?" ”

Luo Xing said: "Let's go, go back to the hotel first." ”

Half past eight in the evening. The ancient street, which had been noisy for a day, finally fell silent.

Jiao Jian and his wife simply took stock and wrote a list, which was to replenish the goods for the tobacco salesman tomorrow. Then I wrote a list of drinks and ice cream that I needed to eat tomorrow morning. I took out the money in the cash register, which was actually not much money, and at five o'clock in the afternoon, I had already rushed to the savings office of the Industrial and Commercial Bank diagonally opposite before getting off work, and I had deposited it once.

After finishing this, Jiao Jian pulled down the electric switch on the electric fuse box in the house. Then he went out with his daughter-in-law, pulled down the roller shutter door, and locked it.

Jiao Jian said: "Wife, what do you mean by these two policemen coming today?" ”

Jiao Jian's wife said: "What do you mean, Cheng Qisheng can't be provoked!" You don't want to die! ”

The two locked the door and walked forward as they spoke, only to find that some of them were really chattering, and the police they were talking about were waiting for them in front.

Luo Xing and Lao Shen politely invited them to sit together.

Their husband and wife turned out to be face-to-face people, knowing that this was impossible to refuse, it was not easy for the police to look for them twice or three times, if they didn't know what to do, they didn't have no other way.

The place Luo Xing was looking for was very simple, it was the lobby of the Gusu Golden Shield Building where the two of them lived.

Gusu is a famous tourist city in the country, Jindun Building is also a four-star hotel, of course, many police officers who come to Gusu on business will not live here even if they can get a discount, it is too expensive, but Qinghu is not bad money, of course, you have to live in a hotel in the system.

Luo Xing ordered charcoal-fired coffee, and Lao Shen was not used to drinking coffee, so he simply ordered Sprite. Jiao Jian and his family also ordered coffee.

There is a piano in the center of the lobby bar, a girl is playing light music, the whole atmosphere is very good, and in the booth by the window, there are simply a few blonde foreigners.

Drinks for a few people arrived quickly, accompanied by snacks and desserts.

Luo Xing thanked him politely.

Luo Xing smiled and said: "We are not familiar with this place, and we don't know where else to open at this time, we live here, so we will invite you here." ”

Jiao Jian was a little surprised: "Pingzhou is developing well now, I know, but is your public security standard for business trips so high now?" ”

Luo Xing said with a smile: "You may be a little misunderstood, we are not from the Pingzhou City Bureau, we are from the Qinghu Branch!" ”

Lao Shen introduced: "This is the Luo Brigade of the Criminal University of our Qinghu Branch. ”

Jiao Jian asked, "The number one criminal policeman?" ”

Luo Xing nodded: "Yes." Criminal Investigation Brigade Now I have the final say. ”

Luo Xing had a faint guess in his heart.

Jiao Jian hasn't said anything yet. Jiao Jian's wife hurriedly asked: "Cheng Qisheng, did you commit something big?" ”

Luo Xing said: "It's hard to say whether he committed a big deal or not, but he provoked people." ”

Jiao Jian asked, "Who did he mess with?" ”

Luo Xing said: "Provoke our leadership, before our leader came to Qinghu, he was the office of the National Criminal Investigation Bureau, and now in addition to the executive deputy director of the Qinghu Branch, he also serves as an associate professor of the Jiangnan Provincial Police Academy." By the way, he's 26 years old. ”

Jiao Jian was taken aback: "So young? ”

Lao Shen immediately understood Luo Xing's intentions: "Let's lead, our temper is not very good." This Cheng Qisheng is a little too serious about himself, and he also made some small shows, although it is useless, but it is disgusting enough for the leader! ”

Jiao Jian nodded: "Understood, understood." Jiao Jian took a sip of coffee, lit a cigarette, and took a few puffs before saying, "Don't blame me for being rude." I'm a small businessman now, Cheng Qisheng, I can't be messed with when I'm the best, and I can't be messed with now. ”

Luo Xing said: "When you suddenly left Pingzhou, was there any secret? Is it because of the hurt or because of those few words? ”

Jiao Jian took a hard puff of his cigarette: "You don't know, Cheng Qisheng has a life on his body, he killed someone, and there is nothing to do!" ”
