Food: How come this boss knows everything?

Chapter 18: Torture? Roast!
The next morning.

No. 26 Heping Road, Jianghai City Public Security Bureau interrogation room.

Captain Wu scratched his head when faced with the prisoner who kept his mouth shut. Although they had caught Su Peng after several days of surveillance, this man did not intend to reveal the whereabouts of the stolen money.

Su Peng, who was sitting opposite in handcuffs, looked very arrogant at this moment.

What if they caught me?

Don't even think about finding out from me where the money went.

He was familiar with the law and knew that the amount of money involved in the case was enough to warrant a life sentence, and that confessing the stolen money would not give him a chance to get a reduced sentence.

He remained indifferent in the face of the police's harsh questioning.

Wu Gang walked out of the interrogation room angrily.

damn thing.

He cursed secretly in his heart.

At this time, Zhang Xiaochen and Jiang Long, who had a day off yesterday, came over.

The two of them looked at their leader with an angry face, and neither of them wanted to get into trouble, so they quietly turned around and walked in another direction.

"What are you two doing?"

Wu Gang called them.

"Captain Wu." The two men greeted each other sullenly.

"My two great heroes, did you have a good time during your holiday yesterday?" Wu Gang asked in a very kind tone.

"Yesterday we both slept until the morning, went to play basketball at the university in the afternoon, and had a barbecue in the evening."

Jiang Long answered without thinking, seemingly unaware of the true emotion behind Captain Wu's kind tone.

Zhang Xiaochen quickly grabbed him.

However, Wu Gang was attracted by the word "barbecue".

He remembered that when the two men arrested Su Peng, Su Peng was still obsessed with the skewers he hadn't eaten.

Suddenly he had a bold idea.

"You two, go to the barbecue stall at Taoyuan Night Market and order some skewers."

???

Zhang Xiaochen and Jiang Long were confused.

Why buy barbecue in broad daylight?
"It's for investigating cases, go quickly." Wu Gang urged them.

Xingfuli Community, at Li Rui’s home.

Li Rui is preparing for today's barbecue.

He unlocked a new dish - grilled chicken feet.

Just as he was putting the cut chicken feet into the basin to wash, his cell phone rang.

Li Rui wiped it clean and answered the phone.

"Hello, this is Jianghai Public Security Bureau. Are you the owner of the barbecue stall at Taoyuan Night Market?"

The call from the police made Li Rui a little confused.

what does this mean.

"I am, what's the matter?"

A familiar voice came from the other end of the phone.

"The boss is me, Zhang Xiaochen."

Hearing the familiar voice, Li Rui felt more at ease.

Zhang Xiaochen: "Boss, can you make some skewers now? We'll buy some, it'll be useful for investigating the case."

"Of course we can, but we can't make grilled tendons and chicken hearts right now."

"No problem, just some skewers, some vegetables, and some bread slices, thank you for your help."

"it is good."

"In twenty minutes, we will arrive at your neighborhood, Xingfuli, right?"

After hanging up the phone, he still secretly complained in his heart.

It was too easy for Zhang Xiaochen to find me.

But despite all the complaints, Li Rui still quickly put on the string.

Although selling skewers at home is not included in the task, it is the duty of every citizen to cooperate with the public security organs in handling cases.

He took it very seriously, but he didn't know what use his skewers would be.

Twenty minutes later.

Zhang Xiaochen and Jiang Long appeared at Li Rui's door on time.

The two of them skillfully helped Li Rui set up the oven and light the charcoal fire.

Li Rui brought out dozens of skewers of barbecue from home one by one.

There were large skewers of lamb, beef, vegetable rolls, enoki mushrooms, and toasted bread slices. We prepared a little of each.

"Is this enough? If not, I'll wear more."

Zhang Xiaochen said, "That's enough. Let's get started, boss."

Li Rui nodded, and then started baking.

It was almost noon, and it was not yet time for lunch, but the aroma of barbecue filled the Xingfuli community.

"Mom, I'm hungry."

"It smells so good, who's grilling skewers?"

"Is there any barbecue for sale at this time? I'll go check it out."

There were also neighbors upstairs looking down from the balcony.

"Oh my god, what's going on? The police came to our neighborhood to have a barbecue?"

"Isn't this Li Rui? Was he caught by the police?" People around were talking about it, while Li Rui was concentrating on grilling skewers.

"呲"

The fat dripped onto the charcoal fire, and the aroma filled the air.

The sizzling lamb skewers were bright red in color and were soon evenly sprinkled with barbecue ingredients.

The tiny cumin particles bounce on the surface of the skewers, splash into the charcoal fire and turn into ashes, and instantly burst into fragrance when attached to the oil.

Zhang Xiaochen and Jiang Long were drooling with envy.

The taste of the classic lamb kebabs lingers in my mind.

The plump and juicy meat and the fragrant fat.

It is paired with moderate salty flavors and spicy seasonings.

It's absolutely amazing.

If Captain Wu hadn't urged them to eat, the two of them would have finished their meal here.

Zhang Xiaochen grabbed Jiang Long's arm and said, "Brother, let's go upwind for a while."

Jiang Long nodded reluctantly.

"Boss, thank you for your hard work. We'll go wait over there."

Li Rui responded to them with a smile.

At this time, an aunt from the neighborhood committee had already come over.

"Hey, this neighborhood doesn't allow them to be sold. Ah, they smell so good, Li Rui, are you selling these skewers?"

"Aunt Meng, I'll just bake it for a while. I don't sell it in the neighborhood."

Aunt Meng wiped her saliva a little embarrassedly and said, "That's not what I meant."

Li Rui said: "It's okay, I'm sorry to trouble you."

"Why are you so polite? We're just neighbors here. I mean, where do you usually sell kebabs?"

“Taoyuan Night Market.”

Aunt Meng cleared her throat, took out her phone and called in the group:

"I asked everyone, this barbecue stall is only sold at Taoyuan Night Market. They will only grill for a short while at noon, so you don't have to line up."

At 11 o'clock in the morning, Wang Xiaochen and Jiang Long returned to the unit with hot barbecue skewers.

Wu Gang had been waiting for them.

"Come on, interrogate Su Peng with me."

After entering the interrogation room, Su Peng and the police staff took their seats.

It’s just that Su Peng was wearing a shiny bracelet on his hand.

He said sarcastically, "I won't tell you. Don't waste your energy."

Wu Gang sat opposite and shook his head.

"No, I won't interrogate you. It's almost noon now. We are tired too. Let's eat something."

As he said this, he opened the tinfoil bag.

Captain Wu took out a large skewer of mutton and smelled it: "Oh, it smells so good."

"Hey, whose barbecue is this?"

Zhang Xiaochen replied: "The one at Taoyuan Night Market."

Su Peng's originally calm expression suddenly became serious. Could it be the one from Taoyuan Night Market? These people were too cunning.

But that would be too much of an underestimation of me, Su Peng.

Want to tempt me with delicious food?
Humph.

Su Peng snorted coldly, turned his head away and stopped looking at the skewers of meat.

Seeing this, Wu Gang was not in a hurry. He put down the lamb skewers and fanned the skewers gently a few times with the folder.

The room was not big, and the smell of kebabs quickly filled the small interrogation room.

As the fragrance hit him, Su Peng seemed to see cattle and sheep leisurely grazing on the prairie, and the harmonious sounds of cumin and chili powder sounded in his ears.

He clenched his fists and tried to endure it. I have eaten mutton skewers before. I have eaten them before. It’s nothing. It’s nothing. I can endure it.

Seeing his expression of trying hard to endure, Wu Gang just smiled, picked up the beef skewers and started eating.

The tender beef topside was roasted until slightly charred on the outside, but the rich gravy overflowed from your mouth as soon as you put it in your mouth.

He chewed it carefully.

The taste is slightly spicy, and the seasoning is tasty but does not cover the aroma of the meat.

Even though he was in the interrogation room, Wu Gang couldn't help but enjoy it.

He finished eating the beef skewers and wiped the grease from the corners of his mouth.

Looking at Su Peng, he was already swallowing his saliva desperately.

At this time, Captain Wu opened another paper bag, which contained toasted bread slices with a golden and crispy crust.

He took a look and said calmly, "Toast," and then closed the paper bag.

Seeing this scene, Su Peng finally spoke:

"Captain Wu, if you keep the toast covered for a little longer, it won't be crispy anymore."

Captain Wu asked doubtfully, "Really?"

Then with a "snap", the bag was covered tightly, and one could seem to hear the sound of the outer shell breaking.

"do not want!"

Su Pengqing shouted in despair.

"I recruit, I recruit, isn't that okay?"
