Chapter 27 (1/2)
Shi Dazhuang called the leaders of the Municipal Bureau to report the situation on the spot and asked for instructions to combine the two cases for investigation.
Aoki followed him back to the building of the municipal Criminal Investigation Detachment. It was evening when he finished recording his confession.
”Thanks to you this time, Mr. Aoki!”
Shi Dazhuang insisted on inviting Aoki to dinner. He really thanked Aoki. Without Aoki, something big would happen today.
Aoki pointed to Hu Xing and said, ”it's all the credit of police officer Hu this time.”
Shi Dazhuang snorted and said, ”if she doesn't make trouble, I'll thank God.”
Hu Xing said unconvinced, ”I broke such a big case and said I made trouble!”
Shi Dazhuang said, ”you haven't settled with you about losing your gun!”
”It's not all my fault!” Hu Xing murmured. ”Don't hide it for me.”
Shi Dazhuang said, ”you've run out of bullets in your gun. Who can hide it? Do you want me to say you're playing with birds in the countryside?”
Hu Xing also knew that she was unjustifiable, so she stopped talking. The police's guns are registered, and the number of bullets received and when they have fired must be truthfully recorded. The madman fired more than a dozen shots with his gun. She couldn't hide the fact that she lost the gun.
Otherwise, she won't be able to avoid a punishment this time. Maybe she doesn't even have to wear a police uniform.
Dinner is at a small restaurant nearby. Stir fried meat, clear water fish, spicy chicken, salted duck, and green vegetable tofu egg soup are all ordinary home dishes.
Shi Dazhuang didn't say that the food was bad and ate casually. He just touched Qingmu's wine glass and knocked the full beer foam all over the table.
He and Aoki picked up the wine glass at the same time and drank it down.
Men don't need to say much. All the words were said in the ”ping pong” sound when the wine glass collided. At the same time, all the friendship was bumped into the wine and drunk into the stomach.
A refreshing energy that made people feel comfortable flowed all over the body with the cold beer. The two men laughed heartily at the same time.
Hu Xing looked left and right, but she couldn't understand. These two completely different types of men, who were not familiar with each other, suddenly became like old friends who had known each other for 20 years. When she drank wine, she had a bit of loyalty and pride of knowing each other in the Jianghu.
After drinking with Aoki, Shi Dazhuang finally picked up his glass and said to Hu Xing, ”although he lost his gun, there was no big deal at all. He solved a mystery, which is a shame to our team leader. I'll give you a toast. Be careful when you go out next time. Don't take yourself in if the case is not solved.”
Hu Xing knew that her captain was a knife mouth tofu heart. In fact, she cared about the members of the team!
She also imitated the appearance of a Jianghu hero, touched the glass with Shi Dazhuang, said boldly, ”in the name of the people!” and then dried a large glass of wine.
”Well said! In the name of the people! We become police to let the people live in peace and make the world free of dirt and crime.” Shi Dazhuang remembered his ambition when he just graduated from the police academy.
Hu Xing suddenly turned dark and said, ”but I can't figure it out!”
”Why don't you understand?” Shi Dazhuang asked.
Hu Xing said: ”Yang Baoguo in Lu county is an unforgivable villain. He takes drugs, gambles and whores. He abandons his wife and son and forces his elderly parents to pick up junk for a living. He has also been jailed for theft several times. I hope he is the real murderer. If he is sentenced to death, it must be a great thing. But now, the murderer is caught and he will be innocent in a few days Release, I have an illusion. It's like I let this bastard go. I asked him to go back and harm the village. In the future, I don't know how many people suffer from it! ”
After hearing this, Shi Dazhuang was stunned. He lit a cigarette for Aoki and himself, then took a puff and said, ”we must act according to law and avenge the victims.”
