Chapter 304: The backstage is hard

"Check someone? Okay. ”

Regarding Su Chengyi's request, although Chu Qianmian was a little unclear, he immediately agreed.

She had just finished drinking tea with the staff of the other party, and under the Chu family's commonplace ability to spend money, things went smoothly.

By this time, she had returned to the huge lounge, and the floor-to-ceiling windows were shining in the dazzling sunlight of Seoul.

The phone didn't hang up, Chu Tianmian just nodded to the person at the door, and then handed over the message he had just written on the paper.

"Check it out."

Her tone was not wavering, and Su Chengyi listened on the other side, a little surprised by her contrast.

"But what's the matter~"

The next second, she changed back to her usual soft tone.

Su Cheng thought about it for a while, and simply re-elaborated today's events, of course, many details were omitted in the middle.

"Oh my God."

Chu Tianmian couldn't help but sigh.

"Su Chengyi, are you a detective?"

This paragraph sounds completely like a taste of reasoning, if it were her, I'm afraid that the first part of tracking down the identity of the raincoat weirdo would have been stopped.

"If I were a detective, would I still be guilty of asking you for help?"

Miss, times have changed.

It's not like you can solve the case with a pipe in your mouth!

Su Chengyi held the mobile phone in one hand, put the other in his pocket, and said casually.

The location of Deyue Restaurant is remote, and there are basically no people in this area, so Su Chengyi decided to go around the neighborhood.

Miss Chu's phone porridge is obviously not finished yet.

"Su Chengyi, I could have come back tomorrow, but my mother said that there was a fashion week in Milan and said that she hoped I could go there.

Do you think I'm going to go? If you go, maybe you can sign a few models back. ”

“.”

Su Chengyi was a little silent for the first time.

It's as easy and casual as buying two popsicles on the side of the road!

If it were in a feudal society, this guy would be the kind of gentleman who would buy a few maids back after a trip to the street!

Just as he was about to reply that he was happy to see Ling, Su Chengyi suddenly had an alarm bell in his heart.

Something is wrong, Milan, the city of Italy, known as the fashion capital, there are Prada, Armani, Gucci, Valentino

Of course, compared to these, Su Chengyi pays more attention to AC Milan Football Club and Inter Milan Football Club.

But none of that matters, the important thing is that pizza is also abundant in Italy.

Pizza Country, fashion show.

"Otherwise, don't go."

Su Chengyi said faintly.

"Huh? Why? ”

Chu Tianmian shrank on the wide sofa, opened the box on the coffee table, and a delicately shaped chocolate cake lay inside.

This is a snack specially prepared after the other party has inquired about their preferences.

How can I say it, should I be glad that it is not a kimchi-related food? kimchi potato chips and the like.

Chu Tianmian shook the spoon, scooped up a spoonful and put it in his mouth.

"I don't think it's interesting to walk the catwalk."

On the other side of the earpiece, Su Chengyi said dryly.

The chocolate cream melted in his mouth, slightly bitter, Chu Tianmian laughed and replied:

"Hmph, what does the straight man of steel know?"

Su Chengyi didn't know what to say, so he said "um", his eyes fluttered unnaturally, but fortunately, he was just talking on the phone at this time, and he couldn't see the clues.

This time, he really saw a stall selling popsicles with carts on the side of the street.

"Alright, I'll be back tomorrow. Anyway, I'm going to get ready for my birthday! Su Chengyi, you won't regret not coming temporarily, right? ”

"No, it won't."

Su Chengyi glanced at the traffic light and prepared to go across the road.

"You promised me!"

"Promised."

"Hee-hee."

Chu Tianmian let out a deliberately funny laugh like in a cartoon, which sounded a little funny.

But soon her tone became serious again.

"yes, okay."

It wasn't until the sound of the door closing that she explained:

"The results of what you asked me to check just now have results, I'll take a picture and send it to you."

Isn't that a bit too efficient?

Su Chengyi couldn't help but sigh again at the importance of the backstage.

At this time, the red light turned into a green light, and Su Chengyi put down his mobile phone and strode across the zebra crossing.

The popsicle seller was an old woman of some age, dressed in simple and old cotton clothes, but the cart was cleaned and wiped.

"Mother-in-law, how do you sell popsicles?"

"A penny, lad."

"Please give me one."

Su Chengyi took out a coin from the pocket of his windbreaker and handed it to her.

Popsicles are very old-fashioned and come in both soda and milk flavors.

Su Chengyi took a bite, it was a refreshing lemonade flavor, and there was a feeling of empowerment when the ice ballast melted.

He clicked on the information sent by Chu Tianmian on his mobile phone.

The investor behind Deyue Restaurant is named Wu Shaobo, and there is a photo attached to it, with typical three white eyes, and his face looks a little ruthless.

In the following archival records, he has a lot of criminal records and stepped on the sewing machine several times. However, the charges are not too serious, and they came out again after stepping on it for a few years.

He was not the first owner of the restaurant, and he took over at a coincidental time, on the first day of the 100th birthday party.

In order not to help when paying money, Su Chengyi specially wrote down the surname of the so-called centenarian, Wu Lao.

So in fact, whether there is this hundred-year-old man is a question of whether there is a birthday, and the birthday party is actually a reception banquet for the new boss to take office?

In addition, the information of the manager in charge of recruitment was also picked up.

Sun Ke, who has a sharp-beaked monkey cheek in the photo, nicknamed Sun Er, can be said to be a difficult brother with Wu Shaobo, and he is also a guy with a lot of criminal records.

It seems that he looks like Wu Shaobo's talker, and most of the time he comes forward.

This Sun Er often posts some high-paying short-term part-time orders, which usually occurs when there is an extreme shortage of manpower.

Strangely, most of the time it is not the case that the applicants are not refused, and the applicants will be screened for several rounds.

The problems exposed by such information are already obvious, but unfortunately the last time these two people were seen was a few months ago, and now it is difficult for anyone to find their whereabouts.

Su Chengyi threw the wooden stick in his hand into the trash can and bought a new milk-flavored one.

It's still delicious with soda, and the milk flavor is a bit like a little pudding that is too sweet.

"Mother-in-law, have you been selling around here?"

"Yes. It has been sold for decades, except for the wind and rain. ”

The winter was cold and windy, and Su Chengyi stood on the side of the road with this mother-in-law, somewhat blocking the wind.

"Do you know the restaurant next door?"

"I know, it's been locked up for months."

The mother-in-law coughed and continued:

"Young man, you are young, don't have anything to do with the people inside, it's not clean."

"Huh?"

Su Chengyi pretended not to know.

"None of them are serious businessmen."

The old woman sighed and said slowly.

Su Chengyi originally wanted to ask a few more words, but after thinking about it, he stopped talking again.

Trouble comes from the mouth, and he doesn't ask much, which is a kind of protection.

"When did it close?"

"When July 30 came, it was no longer open."

Although my mother-in-law is old, her memory is not bad, and she can even tell the specific day.

But July 30, will it be too early?

When Su Chengyi walked home with a bag of popsicles, he couldn't help but think about it in his heart.

After a while, his mind moved.

The older generation does not look at the Gregorian calendar, but the lunar calendar.

July 30, converted to the Gregorian calendar, is exactly September 10.

Su Chengyi gave all the cash on his body to the old woman, not much, about a thousand years.

But it's enough for her to sell popsicles for a while.

Su Chengyi specially instructed her to rest at home for a while, and if she must go out, she will go to another neighborhood to sell.

Although things didn't seem to be so exaggerated, he always felt that it would be a little more reassuring.

It was his personal willingness to investigate the matter, so he didn't want to involve others in it.

Su Chengyi thought as he took out another soda popsicle from the bag.

As soon as the wrapping paper was unwrapped, a black Maybach slowly pulled up to the side of the road.

Su Chengyi's eyes had already swept the track of the wheels, but he walked forward as if he didn't see it.

The closed window in the back row was lowered, and most of Chu Yuanjiang's body was hidden in the shadows, making his smile a little unreal to look at.

"Yo, what a coincidence."

Su Chengyi seemed to have just reacted, his footsteps paused slightly, and he bowed his head sideways.

"Hello Uncle Chu."

"Want a ride?"

Chu Yuanjiang asked with a smile.

But the door on the other side had already opened.

Su Chengyi didn't refuse, and got into the car directly.

Maybach has a lot of interior space in the back, with one person on the left and one on the right, as if there is a Milky Way in the middle.

Uncle Gao in the front row looked at his nose and nose, and just concentrated on driving.

Su Chengyi weighed the bag containing the popsicle in his hand, if it melted, it would seep water, so he didn't put it on the leather seat.

"What's it for?"

Chu Yuanjiang asked.

Su Chengyi opened the bag and handed it to him.

Chu Yuanjiang was also not polite, and quickly picked out a milk-flavored one from it.

"That's what we ate when we were kids, and we miss it, when we only sold it for a dime.

On a hot day, I ran errands from the east to the west of the city, just to get a taste of it. ”

He bit off most of the popsicle in one bite, and for a moment he was so frozen that he couldn't speak clearly.

Just when Su Chengyi thought that he was going to gossip like before, Chu Yuanjiang's tone instantly dropped a few degrees.

"What about you? What are you here for? ”

The atmosphere in the car also cooled down with his tone, falling to the freezing point.

Ask while knowing the answer.

Su Cheng thought that if he had known that if he asked Miss Chu for help, Chu Yuanjiang should also know.

But he didn't expect it to be so soon, and he came to the door as soon as possible.

Could it be that there is more to this than meets the eye? Or, is Deyue Restaurant itself related to the Chu family?

Su Chengyi stared at the water stains seeping out of the wrapping paper of the popsicle in the bag, and felt a little dangerous for a while.

But soon he denied the second possibility.

Because he thought of the flower basket he saw at the door on the day of the 100th birthday banquet, one of which was signed by Hou Yuqian.

Anyone who has something to do with the Chu family may have a relationship with the Hou family.

So after excluding the second option, what remains may be the first.

Then, at least it is safe to communicate with Chu Yuanjiang in itself.

After thinking of this, Su Chengyi slightly dispelled his vigilance.

"What do you think?"

He asked nonchalantly.

Chu Yuanjiang seemed to be a little tired today, and he turned the watch on his hand.

After removing the mask of the approachable Mr. Yes, he finally looks like the gloomy temperament of the boss behind the scenes.

"I don't know how one of your students managed to get yourself into this troubled water. But whatever the why, that's enough for now. ”

There was a warning in his tone.

Ordinary young people were frightened by his momentum, and they might just give up.

It's a pity that the other party is Su Chengyi.

"Where do you go?"

He said lightly.

"I didn't do anything but make a few phone calls."

The atmosphere was stalemate for a long time, and Su Chengyi glanced at the car navigation in front of him.

It's also hard work, Uncle Gao, if the boss's affairs are not finished, how dare he park, he can only drive around the outer city.

Chu Yuanjiang knocked on the dial, thinking of the meeting in half an hour, and he was a little helpless.

Every time I run into this kid, countless troubles come one after another.

Seeds.

In the end, it was Chu Yuanjiang who relented first.

"If you kid want to sleep, you know that I am not prepared to harm you."

He glanced at Uncle Gao in the rearview mirror, and the car drove back to the navigation route.

"If you want to hurt me, you don't have to work so hard."

Su Chengyi laughed.

"Tell me, what the hell is going on."

Chu Yuanjiang sighed and looked at him with his elbows.

A great new way to show off your watch.

Okay, well, you know that you have a custom version of Patek Philippe.

Su Chengyi was secretly amusing himself, when he saw Chu Yuanjiang start to untie the strap.

"Like it? Send you. ”

"That's not necessary."

Su Chengyi made a gesture of "Daba", and the previous Richard Miller was still lying in the drawer at home.

Because of this, I feel that my home is not very safe.

Originally, it didn't matter if the thief entered, but after the gift from their father and daughter, it was very risky to go anywhere in the house.

After sorting out his thoughts, Su Chengyi told the ins and outs of the matter again.

Of course, it is the same as what I said in front of Miss Chu, it is a condensed version that omits some details.

After Chu Yuanjiang listened, his reaction was different from Chu Tianmian's.

"You're putting so much effort into helping someone who can only be regarded as a one-sided relationship, and it's not to get any benefit from it?"

He frowned, as if he didn't understand.

"Perhaps."

Su Cheng thought about it for a while, but he didn't think of a better explanation.

"I'm not very interested in the things behind the scenes, to be honest. So if you want to say that I'm wading through the muddy waters, it's not counting, I'm just passing through the muddy waters. ”

"Do you have to wade in?"

Su Chengyi nodded and lowered his eyes.

His low-eyed appearance looked quiet, and he looked like a good talker.

However, Chu Yuanjiang knew that this was completely an appearance.

"I don't ask for your understanding, but I have promised Zhou Yan's family that they will help find him, so I won't give up halfway.

Besides, I don't think I've done much to do about it. ”

Su Chengyi paused, and then continued:

"Other than that, I know what you care about behind the scenes, so I'll try to avoid it."

"You bring up the missing person notice just now and I'll take a look."

Chu Yuanjiang closed his eyes and pressed his temples.

He then turned on his phone and took a picture.

"I'll tell you the results in three days at the latest. That's all you have to say. ”

Chu Yuanjiang put away his mobile phone and glanced at Su Chengyi with a complicated expression.

The latter laughed, looking rather harmless to humans and animals.

In fact, it was all he who rushed to get here.

"Go, go, go."

was put on a half-sized one, Chu Yuanjiang was unhappy in his heart, and waved his hand to drive people away.

Su Chengyi looked sideways and saw that it was already the door of his own alley.

"Uncle Chu, see you in two days."

Su Chengyi jumped off the Maybach and leaned on the window of the car and said.

"What's going on?"

Chu Yuanjiang subconsciously thought that the matter just now was not over, and his brows furrowed.

"Your daughter's birthday dinner."

Su Chengyi said with a smile.

“.”

This kid seems to be provocative.

inexplicably helped out, and two days later, I had to watch my daughter's elbow turn out.

The more Chu Yuanjiang thought about it, the more he lost.

"Stop! Leave the popsicle on your hand. ”

"Okay."

Su Chengyi smiled and handed the bag back from the window.

It seems that a deal has been reached that is not a loss.
