my wife is a consul

Chapter 32
Jincheng Hotel, the name sounds very bluffing, in fact, it is located on the second floor of a four-story old-fashioned apartment, this apartment is called "Jincheng Building", the first floor is a variety of snack restaurants, the second floor is Jincheng Hotel, In fact, it is a simple day-rental hotel, and nearby prostitutes and wandering warblers are often brought up by guests for fast food.

The recent sensational murder of the second aunt of the Liu family happened in Room 14 of the Jincheng Hotel.

Now, Lu Ming is drinking silk stocking milk tea in a small tea restaurant on the first floor of the apartment.

He sat by the window seat and looked at the tourists and pedestrians outside through the tinted glass window. The murder here did not seem to affect the business of the store. After all, this is a leisure paradise for the market class. There are restaurants on the first floor and daily rental hotels on the second floor. There are civilized dance halls, mahjong parlors and so on on the third floor.

Although the conditions are poor, the advantage is that the consumption is cheap, and the common people can afford it.

Chen Qinghua, who was sitting next to him, felt that the boss's mood should not be very beautiful.

He didn't expect that the room where the murder took place had been unsealed and opened for business. Although no one has lived in it yet, it has been cleaned and there is no need for investigation.

The boss came here probably to see if there were any clues that the police ignored or concealed.

I chatted with the waiters in the hotel, but I didn't find out too many clues. These waiters were very secretive about this case, and no one dared to say anything.

Moreover, the hotel manager who was very close to Second Aunt Li was Du Laifu, who was Aunt Li's cousin, and he was the one who found the body and reported it to the police.

Du Laifu also naturally became one of the witnesses in this case.

Therefore, without the permission of the prosecution, the defense cannot contact him alone in private.

Just now, the boss asked a waiter from the hotel to meet here, and he was waiting for her to finish work.

"Here we come!" Chen Qinghua's eyes lit up.

In front of the tinted glass window, there was a female figure walking by. It was a young woman of eighteen or nineteen years old, wearing calico clothes, very pretty. It was the waiter of the Jincheng Hotel whom the boss had invited, named Xiao Cui.

Chen Qinghua got up, went to the door, and led her in with a smile.

Sitting down somewhat restrained, Xiao Cui glanced at Lu Ming anxiously, "You, are you really a lawyer?"

"Of course, you don't have to be afraid, Lu Bian is very easy-going!" Chen Qinghua said with a smile, and picked up the plate on the table, "Look, what do you want to drink?"

Xiaocui shook her head lightly.

Chen Qinghua smiled and said, "I'll get it for you, just the silk stocking milk tea here, it seems to be a specialty."

"No, I don't drink anything, and I can't help much..."

Looking at Xiao Cui's eyes, he was still a little suspicious, and Chen Qinghua was also a little helpless, but people like Xiao Cui naturally had very few opportunities to see lawyers, and speaking of it, when it comes to on-site investigations, large firms have specialized lawyers. Investigators, or hire private investigators, but the firm has limited personnel, so lawyer Lu can only do it himself.

"I've always felt that you have something to tell me, right?" Lu Ming looked at Xiao Cui.

"No, I, although I was on duty that night, I didn't hear any abnormal noise..." Xiaocui shook her head repeatedly.

Lu Ming took a deep look at her, "Okay, but if you can think of anything, please contact me!"

Chen Qinghua next to him handed her a business card of Lu Ming.

Xiao Cui took it, then stood up, "Lawyer Lu, I'm sorry, I really can't help you!" She bowed, turned around and left in a panic.

Looking at her back, Chen Qinghua said cautiously: "Lu Bian, I'll stay and talk to her more?"

"Forget it, let's go." Lu Ming got up, and Chen Qinghua felt helpless, and there was nothing to gain.

……

There is a detective agency on the tenth floor of Ji Niao Building, which is small in scale, just an office in the inner and outer rooms.

There are only two people, one is the boss of the firm, everyone calls him an old ghost, he is an old man in his 50s, he usually has a big pipe in his mouth, and his face is full of disrespect. It is a rumor that those who offend this guy usually do not end well.

The other is Mrs. Qing, the secretary of the office, an old lady who looks like a ghost. She comes behind you with a teacup silently, making your scalp tingle.

"Lawyer Lu, your request is a bit troublesome!" The flame in the old ghost's pipe flickered on and off, reflecting his sly face.

Lu Ming wants the old ghost to help him find the most original forensic report of Li Xiaoyan, the deceased in Li Mingxuan's case. It would be best if he could ask someone in the forensic office to have a chat with someone who was involved in the case, but it couldn't be the one in the other party's witness list. This kind of medicine.

Looking at the old ghost, Lu Ming smiled: "Brother Gui, tell me a number, let me see if I can accept it."

"It's hard to say, so let's do it, I'll try my best, and if I can, I'll call you again!" The old ghost smiled.

Lu Ming nodded, "Then I will trouble you!"

……

The old ghost's work efficiency is very high. Two or three hours later, he called and said that there is an assistant in the forensic medical office.

The old ghost even said that he will not charge you, Lawyer Lu, this time. He wants to establish a long-term cooperative relationship with you, Lawyer Lu, and give me a small lottery to show my sincerity.

……

In the evening, Lu Ming and Pamela came to Wendebao Club.

This is a four-story magnificent building, especially at night, the neon lights are flashing, which is very beautiful.

The club is equipped with heating and cooling air-conditioning and luxurious furnishings; one of the first floors is a ballroom; the second floor is a casino; the third and fourth floors are VIP rest areas and high-end suites. When preparing to leave, the waiter can use colored light bulbs on the tower to print the customer's car plate number or other codes. The driver can see it from a distance, and drive the car to the door of the dance hall, or the rickshaw runs over and waits.

What's more, behind the club is a vast grassy hillside. This is the club's comprehensive entertainment facilities, including tennis courts, golf courses, swimming pools and so on.

Wendebao Club is the only opponent in Beiguan that can compete with Mingjia Entertainment.

Because the deceased in the case was the second concubine of Liu Shoucheng, the second shareholder of Mingjia Entertainment, therefore, Lu Ming asked the forensic assistant named Cheng Dalong to come to Wendebao Club, which could give him more sense of security.

In the extravagant ballroom, a showgirl in a glittering golden cheongsam is singing a feasting song.

Lu Ming and Pamela sat on a semi-enclosed circular sofa in the corner.

There is a large dance hall where many people can dance together. The floor of the dance floor is supported by automobile steel plates, which will produce a shaking feeling when dancing; there are small dance floors that can be divided freely around the large dance floor, which can be used for people to practice dancing or have a tryst. .

On channel 6 that Lu Ming chose now, there is a small semi-enclosed dance floor next to the coffee table surrounded by semicircular sofas.

It is suitable for three families and two friends. After dancing, talk about private topics.

Looking at his watch, it was already past seven o'clock, and he and the forensic medical assistant Cheng Dalong made an appointment to meet here at exactly seven o'clock.

Pamela wore a snow-white dress and a beautiful golden bun, which was more noble and bright than the black skirt, like a queen from the Middle Ages.

Bringing a western female companion to dance, Lu Ming spent another 500 yuan to sign up for membership, and became a senior member of this club.

Generally speaking, the entry threshold for senior members of the Wendebao Club is very high, and it cannot be done with money. It is an invitation system, and it is also a circle of friends and business circles. There are frequent parties, and many people can't get in even if they sharpen their heads. .

Therefore, when Cheng Dalong came to the front desk and said he had made an appointment with lawyer Lu Qianxing, soon a waiter brought him here very respectfully.

Cheng Dalong looked in his 40s, wearing black-rimmed glasses, and seemed to seldom go to such high-end places. He shook hands with Lu Ming and sat down. Lu Ming ordered some snacks and asked him what he wanted to drink. He looked at the drink sign The price on the website is also a gasp.

"Have a bottle of 30-year-old brandy." Lu Ming said casually.

In this world, brandy is of course not called brandy, but it is also distilled wine from grapes, so Lu Ming defaulted its name to brandy.

The 30-year puree, according to previous life, is considered top grade even among XO brandy.

The price here is 30 yuan for a bottle of 30-year-old brandy. Cheng Dalong, a forensic assistant, has a normal monthly salary of only 65 yuan, and he immediately becomes more cautious.

As for Pan Mila, a glamorous Western beauty with blond hair and green eyes who are full of aggressiveness, Cheng Dalong is even more afraid to look over there.

"Also, help Mr. Cheng choose a dance partner, it's better." Lu Ming ordered the waiter again.

Not long after, with a chuckle, a beautiful woman in a cheongsam with a bottle of foreign wine in her hands swayed forward. A very beautiful beauty, with a light red cheongsam, showing beautiful legs in snow-white stockings, and red high-heeled shoes, exudes a sexy style all over her body. .

"Sir, my name is Amei..." Liren blinked her long eyelashes and looked at Lu Ming, vaguely saying, are you satisfied with me?

Lu Ming pointed to Cheng Dalong's side, and said with a smile, "Stay with my friend."

"Okay!" Amei showed Lu Ming the wine again. Seeing Lu Ming nodded, she opened the wine and asked Pamela, "Miss, what would you like to drink?"

"Just a little less!" Pamela put her and Lu Ming's glasses between her and Lu Ming's glasses with her long, white fingers painted with silver nail polish.

Lu Ming smiled inwardly. Fortunately, there has been no mention of drunk driving yet.

After pouring the wine, Ah Mei took the glass she shared with Cheng Dalong, sat down next to Cheng Dalong, handed the glass of brandy to Cheng Dalong, and said with a chuckle, "You look so gentle!"

Being lightly touched by her body, Cheng Dalong immediately blushed like an electric shock, and took the wine glass in a panic, "Ah, yes, yes..."

Amei laughed like a silver bell.

Lu Ming smiled: "You guys chat for a while, let's go to the lobby to dance..."

Went out with Pan Mila, went to the hall to dance a tune, when he came back, he saw Cheng Dalong was much more natural, chatting and laughing with Amei.

It has to be said that Wen Debao's dancer is very good at prescribing the right medicine. In a short period of time, she has captured Cheng Dalong and made him feel at home.

"Mr. Cheng, do I have the honor to invite you to dance?" Amei stood up and stretched out her beautiful hand to Cheng Dalong.

"Okay..., okay..." Cheng Dalong seemed to be itchy for a long time. He grabbed Amei's hand and couldn't bear to let go. He and Amei danced to the dance music on the small dance floor. Slow dance, under the guidance of Amei, Cheng Dalong can keep up with the pace.

"That Velcro is pretty good, how is it going?" Lu Ming asked Pamela.

"All the materials that need to be prepared have been submitted. There is no problem. You are the first inventor, and Gao Baozhen is the second inventor."

Lu Ming nodded. Gao Baozhen is very talented in this area. According to what he said, he has already worked out the prototype of the Velcro fastener. Moreover, because it is his own idea, he is only the executor, just like a theoretical physicist. The difference from experimental physicists is that he is willing to be the second beneficiary of the patent application, and he has also signed an agreement with him. If the patent benefits, he and he will share the account according to [-]/[-].

Pamela is very smart. During this period of time, she has fully learned how to apply for a patent. Of course, the required materials are very clear, and it is not a complicated job. However, women in this era generally do not have a high degree of education and their enlightenment is limited. , for this kind of professional work, it is amazing to be able to figure out the way in a short period of time.

It will be more worry-free for myself, I only need to select valuable patent inventions, and I can completely ignore the application procedures and the like.

After asking this sentence, Lu Ming fell silent again, and was a little embarrassed to dance just now.

"Lawyer Lu, come, I, I'll toast you!" Cheng Dalong came back after dancing a song, raised his glass, blushing, everyone was drunk when he was not drunk.

Lu Ming smiled and raised his glass to lightly touch him.

"Lawyer Lu, I really can't help you too much this time..." Cheng Dalong looked very regretful, probably even if he sold his father now, he would not hesitate at all, but now he is just annoyed, what he brought The information doesn't seem to be of much value.

Amei had already got up, "I'll get you some fruit!" She was very discerning, and knew that it was time to talk about business, and she shouldn't be around.

"It's okay, the important thing for us is to make friends!" Lu Ming smiled, "Well, in the future, when you come with your friends, just sign my ticket."

Watching Amei walking away, Cheng Dalong turned sideways and lowered his voice: "Lawyer Lu, regarding the autopsy of Second Aunt Li, it is like this, her skull had at least four blunt traumas. In the case of fission, there are opinions that the latest blunt weapon blow may be separated from the first blow by a period of time, which may exceed three hours, but after the forensic discussion meeting, this point was removed from the report deleted."

"But Lawyer Lu, I can't prove this in court, you, you understand..." Cheng Dalong looked a little embarrassed, feeling like he was eating and drinking for free.

"It's okay, you've already helped me a lot!" Lu Ming smiled and raised his glass.
