purple mist

The Hong Kong-style tea restaurant on the corner was already deserted, but after the neighbors heard that the police had come here, no one came.Even a little girl who loves to drink silk stocking milk tea dared not come because her parents repeatedly told and frightened her.

The part-time waiter Qian Qian leaned against the kitchen door, sighed and said, "Hey, Boss Chai likes that little girl very much. Every time he comes to buy milk tea, he asks me to make her a snack for nothing."

Wearing only an apron all day long, the chef who had never turned on a stove smoked a cigarette, swallowed clouds and said, "Is there any way."

He pouted at the window: "Here, there's a big stupid guy who has been walking around the door, who dares to come?"

Sissy tugged at her braids, rolled her eyes, and said, "Really, how can such a kind-hearted person as Boss Chai be considered a murder suspect? They must have made a mistake."

The chef quietly glanced at Chai Fangjun, who was sitting quietly at the counter, and covered his voice with his palm: "I don't think it's easy to say. Before our store, the flowers in the bottles were different every day. The flower buds are all watery. Yes, huh..."

"Look at the past few days, Boss Chai is buying this kind of small white flowers every day. I don't know that there is something wrong with our store, making it like a mourning hall... Ouch! Why are you beating me?!"

"Stop talking nonsense!" Sissy widened her eyes and slapped the chef several times.

After punishing the chef, Sissy looked worriedly at the slightly hunched figure at the counter.

At this moment, with the sound of jingling bells, the door that hadn't been visited by guests for a long time was pushed open.

A gust of biting cold wind rushed in, but made Sissy's eyes light up instantly, and she greeted happily: "Welcome!"

The little yellow hair among them made Cici feel very familiar, but before she had time to recall, she hurriedly picked up three menus and sent them to the place where the three were seated.

"Come, come, don't be polite, just order whatever you want! Anyone who is being polite today is not treating me, Pan Xiaobai, as a brother!"

Oh, it's quite wide.

Sissy, who was waiting to order at the side, looked at the ostentatious little yellow hair, thinking that she must have made a mistake.

"Hey, our brother also said, will you live on the streets after you get out from Brother Xing? Didn't you expect to be prosperous? Hahahahahaha."

Today, Pan Xiaobai, who was dressed very neatly and decently, waved his hands, pretending to be modest and said: "No, no, that is, I met a nobleman, and pointed out a way for my brother to do business. I plan to follow my current elder brother for the rest of my life. Look, Look here! Brother, this watch! Brother gave it!"

The two young men sitting across from him stared at the shiny watch eagerly, feeling sore in their hearts.

Pan Xiaobai rolled back his sleeves, pointed and ordered a dozen or so dishes on the menu, and let the festive Sissy place the order.

"Hey." Pan Xiaobai sighed, helped the plain mirror on the bridge of his nose, and said: "Brothers didn't do anything bright with Brother Xing before, and it's all up to you two to take care of me. From now on, the three of us We're about to part ways, and there's nothing brothers can do for you, so please have a meal! I know Brother Xing has rules, you can't drink at noon, so let's eat!"

The three of them were polite, and one of the young men rolled his eyes and asked tentatively, "Hey, Xiaobai, what kind of business is your current elder brother doing?"

Pan Xiaobai glanced around pretending to be mysterious, hooked his fingers at the two of them, and the three heads made up a plate of lion heads, and then he whispered: "Actually, my current eldest brother is Brother Xing's previous family." .”

"What?!"

"Keep your voice down! I only revealed it to you two brothers for the sake of our brotherhood! I want my elder brother to know about this, why don't you just pick it up for me?!"

Pan Xiaobai's expression was too frightened, and the two young people looked at each other, and the doubts they had about each other disappeared immediately.

Pan Xiaobai was always timid and fearful. If he wanted to steal, he didn't have the skills; if he wanted to rob, he didn't have the guts.The only advantage is that two-two-fold loyalty.

But it doesn't rule out that it's because he didn't have the guts to commit a crime, and just wanted to make a living and have no future.

You can't eat grape sour in your mouth, but if you can eat it in your mouth, it will be a different taste.

So the young man smiled a little, and said to Pan Xiaobai: "Brother, is there still a shortage of people at your elder brother's place?"

"No shortage!" Pan Xiaobai immediately said with staring eyes, as if he was afraid of losing his job.

"Don't." The other person also grinned: "You know that our brothers are at Brother Xing's place, and Shen Gan and the others are suppressing them, when will we be able to get ahead? The daughter-in-law can't get half of it. "

He winked, and the person next to him said in a sly way: "Yes, brother, we just want to make a living. If you do well, we two brothers will be your right-hand men! Let's make a fortune together! no?"

Pan Xiaobai frowned, his eyes rolled around, as if he was extremely distressed.

Seeing that Pan Xiaobai was loose, the two young men immediately called out Pan Ge Pan Ge one by one. Pan Xiaobai, who had never enjoyed this kind of treatment, was so happy that the corners of his mouth were hanging on his ears, so he hooked his hands again and said cautiously: "Brother Do you have the guts?"

They both said that the most courageous person is you, okay?But he still nodded his head like a pounding garlic.

"My elder brother wants to swallow Xing Laohei's business now."

"……This."

Hearing this, the two panicked instantly, but when Pan Xiaobai saw their expressions, he punched him twice in the chest, punching himself like a broken bellows, and said with a sense of pride: "The man's ambition is to Sifang! How bold and productive a person is! If you care about your own bad life, just pretend I didn't say anything!"

After saying that, he took off the shiny watch from his wrist, and slammed it on the table with a bang.

……

Inside the office.

Lu Wei put his hands in his trouser pockets, leaned against the corner of the table, and said thoughtfully, "Xing Laohei?"

"Officer Lu, if you want to make a big move, can you bother to talk to the little one?" Xue Han had a half-smile, playing with the small items in his pocket, and said in a hoarse voice: "Have you ever been a tool man once?" Do you want to provide after-sales service?"

Lu Wei didn't seem to listen to his words, he was still thinking.

That day on the viaduct, shaking like a sieve, Pan Xiaobai had no choice but to betray his former big brother Xing Laohei when he was stabbed horizontally and vertically, and turned to Lu Wei.

Lu Wei threw his watch to Pan Xiaobai, and briefly explained what he was asked to do. If things go well, there should be news soon.

So what happened to the person who followed Xue Han who killed him halfway?

Was it Pan Xiaobai who betrayed him and leaked the news?Or is Xing Laohei himself suspicious?

"What are your plans for today?"

Hearing Lu Wei's interrogation, Xue Han subconsciously wanted to tease him about whether he wanted to schedule a date, but then he thought about Lu Wei who had an undercurrent in the scene just now. He pressed his tongue to his cheek and said seriously: " Part-time job, but I have already called the boss and pushed."

"Are you short of money?" Lu Wei raised his eyebrows and asked.

Xue Han glanced at him lightly, snorted ironically, and said nothing.

Seeing his disdain to talk about this issue, Lu Wei didn't ask any more questions, and left a sentence when he got up and left: "Wait until I get off work."

As soon as the office door opened, Zhang Shun was about to leave, but Lu Wei caught his eye.

Lu Wei looked past him, looked at the person hiding behind Zhang Shun, and said in a voice that seemed to be mixed with ice, "Warm."

"Don't blame Xiaoxin!" Zhang Shun hurriedly stood up from the ice and snow storm, protected the trembling intern, and said in embarrassment: "Yun, Yun Ye finished asking, I heard Xiaoxin say you are in the office , just... just said to come and find you."

"What?" Zhang Shun couldn't hide his curiosity, and asked, "You have a good relationship with this classmate Xue? Are you having trouble finding him?"

In fact, Zhang Shun rushed over when he heard Lu Wei's loud "Xue Han" from a distance, and just met Wen Xin, who wanted to hear the corner of the wall and scratched his heart but dared not dare. Throughout the whole day, I could only vaguely hear words such as tracking, tools, part-time jobs, and money.

"It's nothing." Lu Wei withdrew his cold gaze, and said indifferently, "I'm dealing with private matters during the case handling, I'm sorry Team Zhang. I'll hand over the [-]-word review to you later."

Wenxin bit her sleeve and wanted to cry, she really wasn't making a small report, Deputy Lu...

"Ah... It's just a few minutes, it's not necessary." Zhang Shun smiled wryly, but he estimated that Lu Wei's review would still be handed over to him.

"What's the situation with Yunye and Wu Qingqing?" Lu Wei asked without further discussing irrelevant matters.

Zhang Shun smacked his lips and said, "There's nothing strange about it. Although Yun Ye and Chu Siqi belong to the same company, they don't have many chances to meet each other."

"His villa is located some distance from Chu Siqi's house, and it takes more than ten minutes to drive. On the day of the incident, he and Wu Qingqing went to the neighboring city. There is a record of the high-speed toll booth. They didn't return home until around 04:30 in the afternoon. Chu Siqi's death time was around [-]:[-]."

"Wu Qingqing admits that she is an old acquaintance of Chu Siqi, but because of the incident with Chai Xi when she was a child, there has been a estrangement, and there have been fewer contacts. Her itinerary on the day of the incident is basically the same as Yunye's."

Lu Wei tapped the seam of his trousers rhythmically with his fingertips, and quickly sorted out Chu Siqi's social circle that he knew earlier in his mind.

The deceased Chu Siqi's parents both died, and almost no relatives.She doesn't have many friends, even very few, and spends most of her time dressing up, singing and live broadcasting.

The fans who usually talk the most are probably the fans in the live broadcast room.

So the most suspect at the moment is Chai Fangjun who can easily get in touch with her, deeply hates her, and has a different spirit.

But what about the murder weapon?

After Chai Fangjun dismembered Zhou Duo's body, the bloody ax was thrown carelessly by the side of the road. Why did he hide or destroy the murder weapon this time?

If it's really revenge, it doesn't look like Chai Fangjun's handwriting.

"Dead but not stiff."

For some reason, these four words suddenly appeared in Lu Wei's mind.

——Like a chain that has not been buckled, it keeps rattling in my ears, making a sound like bones breaking.
