Detective Files II

Chapter 45
[Sorry, the update is late today. Xiao Mo just came back from China, but because of a busy month in a row, he fell ill immediately after coming back with a fever. I apologize for being late today, and tomorrow may be a little later. I will try to be on time at 12 noon the day after tomorrow. click! 】

With many turns and turns, Tian Mi took Lu Xiangdong to an unremarkable small restaurant.

"Here it is! Look at how kind I am, I didn't take the opportunity to blackmail you for a seafood feast!" Tian Mi found a table by the wall and sat down, but the waiter handed over the menu.

Lu Xiangdong didn't respond, his face was much more relaxed than when He Tian Mi first met, but he was still a little tired, he flipped through the menu a few times before throwing it on the table.

"Why don't you order something to eat?" Tian Mi asked.

"You choose the place, and let you order the dishes."

"Aren't you afraid that I will only pick expensive ones?"

"up to you."

"Okay, two feet long lobster!" Tian Mi pretended to order.

The waiter at the side shook his head, amused: "I really don't have this one, but if it's spicy crayfish, I can serve you two pots!"

Tian Mi also smiled, and neatly chose a few favorite foods from the menu. After a while, the food was served, with all the colors and flavors, and the heat of the food turned into a cloud in the cool air. As a result, the interior of the room felt a little warmer, and even the small windows on the side wall were covered with a thin layer of water mist.

The saying that the emperor is big when eating is well interpreted by Tian Mi. After the food was served, Tian Mi, who was already hungry, immediately put all her attention on the great cause of offering sacrifices to the Wu Zang Temple. Lu Xiangdong, who was sitting across from her, ate indifferently, rather than eating, it was more accurate to say that he was picking rice grains in the bowl with chopsticks.

"Have you been counting the rice grains for so long?" Tian Mi's stomach was full, and then she noticed that Lu Xiangdong didn't seem to have any appetite: "You really haven't eaten dinner, have you?"

Lu Xiangdong shook his head.

"Then you don't want to eat, why are you dawdling there?" Tian Mi looked Lu Xiangdong up and down speculatively: "You guy, you are not picky eaters, are you? You think the things I pick can't be swallowed?"

"I'm not hungry." Lu Xiangdong succinctly denied her guess, and at the same time used a question to prevent Tian Mi from continuing to struggle with this issue: "You insisted on pulling me out to eat from just now, you should not only want to Is it so simple to eat a meal?"

Being told what was on her mind, Tian Mi smiled wickedly: "You can see that, I have made some progress in that case!"

"Then why didn't you just say it straight?"

"Speak directly?" Tian Mi curled her lips: "Look at that stinky face of your old man just now! If I stopped you directly and said that I wanted to talk to you about the case, would you just ignore me and walk away?"

"It's possible." Lu Xiangdong answered realistically.

"Then it's over!" Tian Mi spread her hands together: "So my choice is wise! But then again, what are you bothering about tonight? Ah, it can't be because I saw it at the gate of Dongliang Group that day. That girl?"

Lu Xiangdong's eyes flickered for a moment, but the expression on his face didn't change much, and the chopsticks that were fiddling with the rice paused for a moment.

"Why?" He asked Xiang Tian Mi, as if nothing had happened.

"There's no reason, I just feel that the only mood swing you've had recently has been that one time!" Tian Mi began to gossip: "Then I'm guessing right? Isn't it?"

"Yes," Lu Xiangdong said, just when Tian Mi showed an expression of catching gossip news, he highlighted two words: "That's weird."

"If you have something to talk about, eat well if you have nothing serious to do, and go home after eating." He didn't give Tian Mi a chance to ask further questions, and directly issued an ultimatum.

Tian Mi can clearly tell which is more important. Regarding Lu Xiangdong's problem, she can dig into it slowly when she has time to spare. The most important thing right now is to get the case done.

So she put away the joke, and told Lu Xiangdong the process of being "summoned" by Liang Meiyu in detail, not even letting go of some trivial things. The previous contact gave Tian Mi a "police dog" towards Lu Xiangdong. Definition, without any meaning of irony, she just thinks that what makes this man different is that he can always find things from some small details that don't attract attention.

After listening to Tian Mi's narration, Lu Xiangdong sat there without saying a word.

Tian Mi didn't dare to speak rashly, for fear of being accused of interrupting the freak's thinking, she simply waited quietly.

If more picture effects are needed, it is not too much to artificially add some ticking second hand beating sounds, or Tian Mi's heartbeat or breathing at this moment.

It's just that life doesn't always play cards according to routines, and it doesn't develop according to scripts.

After the two of them were silent for almost 5 minutes, Tian Mi couldn't help it: "I said, after being bored for a long time, what did you come up with?"

"What's the summary? I'm not listening to you." Lu Xiangdong looked innocent.

"What's the matter with this!" Tian Mi wanted to cry without tears: "I've clearly finished speaking, but you didn't say a word, I thought you were going to express some great opinion!"

"How do I know you're done talking?"

"I've kept my mouth shut for so long, what if it's not finished?"

"Who knows if there was a sudden power failure."

Huh, huh, huh, Tian Mi took a deep breath, and finally waved her hands wildly like a fly: "If you don't mention this matter, what do you think of what Liang Meiyu and I said?"

"Half-truths."

"Which ones are true and which ones are false?"

"Think for yourself."

Tian Mi became angry again.

"I think it's necessary to start with her daughter." She continued to ignore the flames in her heart and let herself focus on serious matters: "Liang Meiyu has been struggling in the business field for so many years. It's an old fritter, it's definitely not easy to dig out useful information from her mouth, since she said that her daughter discovered it first, then let's seize this thread, there will always be something to gain!"

"for example?"

"First, if Liang Meiyu and Huang Meng's daughters were the first to discover the fact that their father was having an affair, then that young girl with little experience in the world would be easier to deal with than Mu Guiying in the business world? Second, "Tian Mi said confidently: "If in fact Liang Meiyu and Huang Meng's daughter are not the first insiders of Huang Meng's affair, then it means that Liang Meiyu is lying! In this way, which of her words is true? False, there will be a little more reference evidence!"

Lu Xiangdong didn't say anything, he groped in his pocket for a while, took out a small folded paper and handed it to Tian Mi.

"We'll see when we get home." He said mysteriously.
