Chapter 157: Enemy or Friend
Huang Cen told Shui Zexi and Dugu Ming about this matter, and then pretended to be nothing, and returned to the "army" eating barbecue.
"I just called Young Master Ming, and he said: Everyone will eat it tonight! There is a barbecue and it doesn't match beer. How can it be considered perfect?" Huang Cen said, raising his hand to the barbecue restaurant owner behind him. "Boss, serve us beer according to the number of people here, starting from three cans per person."
"Okay, come here!" The barbecue restaurant owner felt so happy when he saw such a customer! This is a gift for money and must be well received.
I had a great time here, and the two people in the hotel room frowned.
"Dugu Ming, is this person an enemy or a friend?" Shui Zexi couldn't figure it out even if she wanted to break her head.
He was found not hiding his identity, but instead said he wanted to protect the two of them? What was the sinister look she felt before leaving the chess and card room? Is it true that he could kill them when necessary?
"This is not clear, but one thing is certain, this person is with us." Dugu Ming's so-called "together" does not mean that he is standing on their side. Instead, he also wants to find out the case, just like them. People have already said it clearly: the case has been secretly investigated until now!
"Then why don't we invite him to come and spread all the words out. This way, it's better than not knowing anything from both of us and doing things blindly. If he wants to investigate, it's just right, he is the main and we are the auxiliary, and it saves a lot of trouble. I believe that the people behind him want to know the result of this case more than we do." Shui Zexi felt that the method was very feasible.
If the other party is willing to cooperate, the case will be much easier than they imagined.
"You can try it." Dugu Ming wanted to make Shui Zexi too psychologically stressed, and he didn't want to see Shui Zexi injured. If he followed the opinion put forward by Shui Zexi, Dugu Ming felt that this is the best of both worlds.
"It's getting late, let's go to bed first! Even if there is something big, I have to wait until tomorrow morning." After thinking through this, Dugu Ming advised Shui Zexi to sleep. This girl still wants to play Landlord all night long, how could it be possible! Will he indulge her so much? Absolutely not!
"I know, I'm not a child." Shui Zexi curled her lips. She is already an adult, why does Dugu Ming treat her as a child every time?
"Not a child! Well, I finally said something very right, so let's do what adults should do." Dugu Ming began to develop his bad thoughts.
"Dugu Ming, what are you doing? Let me go!" Everything came too suddenly. Shui Zexi had already been "blocked" by Dugu Ming before he could even realize where he was "wrong".
The sweet fragrance on his body filled his nose, warm and made her mind start to become chaotic. There was a voice in her head saying to her: Go to sleep, go to sleep heavily in his arms...
The wound on Shui Zexi's neck has healed. Perhaps because of her physical condition, there is no scar left. The smooth and fair skin reveals a little pink. Dugu Ming carefully stroked her slender neck, took her into his arms, and breathed heavily in his heart: My Zexi, we will be very happy after these two cases are investigated!
Shui Zexi hugged Dugu Ming and rubbed his arms. Then he pressed his ear against his chest and listened to the powerful heartbeat.
In the past, Shui Zexi liked to curl herself up when she was sleeping alone. In this way, she could protect herself well. But now, she likes to hold the person beside her because she knows that as long as he is by her side, she is very safe.
Huang Cen and the others didn't come back until the middle of the night. Everyone drank a lot of alcohol and fell asleep after returning to their room. This was the most comfortable sleep he slept.
All the policemen woke up naturally, and no one called them. Shui Zexi and Dugu Ming got up a little early and had already finished breakfast. In the room, one was watching the financial news and the other was looking at his email address, ready to reply to emails to others.
"Knock and knock--" the knock on the door sounded.
"Who?" Shui Zexi asked.
"I am Huang Cen's classmate, the one who may become you 'together'." The person outside the door answered calmly. This answer instantly made Shui Zexi and Dugu Ming more alert. What they said was "maybe", but it does not mean it is "certain".
Last night, Shui Zexi was still thinking about whether to invite him to come over and have tea and chat? Now, this person comes to him by himself, maybe he is the same as what they think!
Shui Zexi concluded in her mind: It seems that the possibility of them becoming "allies" will be very high!
"Wait a minute, let's open the door." Shui Zexi was not vague. He had arrived at the door, so there was no reason to let him go back. He would not talk about what should be discussed, and what should not be discussed. Now he just talks about the matter, just talk about how to investigate the case!
The door opened, and standing outside was a handsome boy. He was about the same age as Huang Cen, but his eyes were very cold.
"Please come in." Shui Zexi made aside and let the boy come in. Then he closed the door and locked it.
At this time, Dugu Ming watched the boy come in. Last night, his cynicism had disappeared, and instantly changed back to his original aloofness.
"Who is the person behind you?" Dugu Ming spoke first as soon as the boy sat down. Shui Zexi didn't expect that he would ask so directly. Is this his style in the shopping mall? It's true that he has an imperial temperament!
"Are you talking about my master? He will come to see you in a few days. Today, I will pass the message for him." The boy paused, took a cup on the coffee table, poured some hot water for himself, took a sip, and put the cup on the tea.
He met Dugu Ming's eyes and continued: "After years of secret investigation, there is more than one formation map in China, which proves that there is more than one case in China. Today I am here to tell you: Don't hinder our investigation of the case, your case is just one of them."
After hearing this, Shui Zexi sat opposite him angrily and said, "Please tell me why my mother is abroad or at home? Tell me in the group who is the murderer?"
"I can't answer you now because we haven't found it." The boy didn't look at Shui Zexi, picked up the cup and took another sip of water, and ignored Shui Zexi.
"So this is the result of your search for so many years? Why would I sit in the bookstore for two days and read a few books seriously? "Shui Zexi deliberately motivated him. No matter what they found, even if it was just a little more than they found, Shui Zexi was willing to cooperate with him.
"There are more than one murderer in the Demonic World. All I can say is this. Now there is something else to do, let's leave first." The boy said this, got up and walked out the door.
"Let's cooperate! The premise is that I will see the person behind you." Just before the boy was about to open the door and go out, Dugu Ming's voice sounded behind the boy.
"I know, you will see him soon." The boy opened the door and closed the door, blocking the two visions behind him.
"It turned out that I came here to discuss cooperation. However, I can't accept this kind of negotiation method." Shui Zexi bent her lips and smiled slightly, which made Dugu Ming feel a little uncomfortable.
The boy returned to his room, took out a cell phone from his backpack, flipped through the number marked "alpaca", and dialed out. The phone was connected, and the boy said, "They agreed to cooperate." After speaking, he hung up the phone two seconds later.
Dugu Ming called Huang Cen to his room and said to him: "We will go back this afternoon, and this case will come here first, and you will be allowed to take over the full responsibility. It doesn't matter how bad the future is. What's important is that you have to tell us the progress of the case at any time."
"Yes." Huang Cen didn't know what was going on. In one night, the attitudes of these two people changed so much. He couldn't ask, so he could only nod in silence. He swallowed all his doubts back into his stomach, just assuming that there had never been any problems.
"This is my credit card. You can take it first, there is no password on it." Dugu Ming handed over one of his credit cards to Huang Cen. He reminded him, saying, "What I want is the result. As for how much you spend, there is no problem."
In Dugu Ming's heart, nothing can be solved with money.
"Ensure that the task is completed!" Huang Cen answered firmly.
...
How about those policemen? Shui Zexi and Dugu Ming didn't care. Anyway, they wouldn't treat them badly.
The two of them asked the driver to drive the car and take them to the place where they bought specialties last time. The last time they took the food back, the old lady Dugu had a happy meal and said she wanted to come with them. As a result, they came here this time and left the old lady at home again.
In order to show that they knew they were "wrong", they planned to buy some specialties here and go back and respect her. After all, for the sake of food, this "wrong" can be easily passed.
Maybe it was because Shui Zexi bought too many things in this store last time, which immediately impressed others. Even though she was wearing very flat clothes this time, as soon as she stepped into the store, the clerk came up enthusiastically and said, "I saw you again, is it the same today as last time?"
"Yes." Shui Zexi nodded, which made her very happy. She quickly arranged someone to pack for Shui Zexi, and then invited the two strong men in the warehouse last time.
The group was busy until after 2 pm. At this time, Shui Zexi and Dugu Ming had already finished their lunch and returned to the store with leisurely steps. Looking at the food piled up like hills at the entrance of the store, he silently sighed in his heart: Now, the Dugu family, the Luo family, and the Jin family are not short of snacks.
"It's all packed. Where is your car parked? I'll send it to you." This time, they learned from the last lesson and dragged a small cart out of the warehouse.
"It's in the parking lot, you'll see it when you go." Shui Zexi said, stretching out his right hand and going to Dugu Ming.
Dugu Ming put a card of his own in Shui Zexi's hand, and then said with great confidence: "My wife, please use it!"
"I will reward you well when I go back, as long as I can do it." These words were deeply imprinted on Dugu Ming's heart. It seems that he must have a big reward tonight!
But Shui Zexi didn't know that "danger" was slowly approaching her little sheep.
