Detective: From the Police Academy

Chapter 127 A false alarm

Mo Wanqiu's watery eyes kept staring at Luo Rui, like a kitten wanting a hug.

No one can resist a kitten.

But Luo Rui was always worried about Tao Yanhong and her daughter.

When did the murder happen?
He had no idea what was going on, so he didn't dare leave easily.

"I'll think about this when I get back."

Luo Rui saw Mo Wanqiu lowering his head in disappointment and fiddling with the grilled eggplant on the plate with chopsticks.

A sneer appeared on Tang Wenzhe's lips, but Pan Xiaoxiao was dancing with joy.

She had been against Luo Rui going there in the first place. Now that this troublesome person is gone, wouldn't her male best friend have a chance?

The small umbrella that Mo Wanqiu bought was a box that she helped to select, and it was bought according to the size of her male best friend.

You ask, why does she know the size of her male best friend.

I told you he’s my best male friend, but I didn’t even think of him as a man.

Little did people know that Tang Wenzhe picked up a piece of green chives with chopsticks and ate it with gusto.

The barbecue ended in a bad mood.

Luo Rui sent Mo Wanqiu to the school gate. This girl sometimes lives in the school dormitory and sometimes lives at home. It all depends on her mood.

"Um...can we go together?" Mo Wanqiu said coquettishly.

Luo Rui really didn't want to refuse her, but human life was at stake, so he could only shake his head.

Mo Wanqiu's expression suddenly became serious: "I don't care anyway, if you don't go, I'll go by myself!"

After saying that, she turned around and prepared to go back to school.

She counted the seconds, thinking Luo Rui would change his mind, but Luo Rui turned around and walked towards the car.

Mo Wanqiu turned around, a trace of helplessness on his face: "Luo Rui, come to my house for lunch tomorrow at noon. My parents want to see you."

If you don't agree to this, you will be committing a sin.

Luo Rui quickly replied: "Okay, I'll pick you up in the morning and we'll go buy some gifts."

Mo Wanqiu nodded and walked into the school.

In the darkness, there seemed to be a pair of eyes staring at her back.

……

Luo Rui returned to the car, and Cai Xiaojing asked with a smile: "Why, you still refused?"

"Eh……"

Luo Rui started the car and looked forward.

"To be honest, Luming Mountain is a wild mountain. I really don't recommend them to go there. If something unexpected happens, rescue will be very troublesome."

How could Luo Rui not know: "But, I've been solving cases for a long time, and I have too little time to spend with her. I was thinking about how to make up for it..."

Cai Xiaojing didn't respond. It was not appropriate for her to get involved in this matter.

After returning to his residence, Luo Rui parked his car in the community and looked at the time. It was exactly 10:30 in the evening.

"Mr. Cai, I'm going to buy something across the street. Do you want me to bring you something?"

Cai Xiaojing shook her head: "I don't need it, thank you."

After she got off the car, she walked straight into the building.

Luo Rui crossed the road and came to the supermarket.

Unexpectedly, the small supermarket was closed!
Didn’t the boss Qu Bo say that the shop closes at 11pm?
Did he lie?

Damn it!

Luo Rui panicked and rushed across the street, and was almost hit by a car!

No way!
Is it tonight?

Is he going to commit murder?

Luo Rui ran into the corridor and pressed the elevator button desperately, but the elevator never came down.

In order to save time, he could only climb the stairs next to him.

He took two steps at a time and climbed up to the ninth floor in one breath.

Before he could even catch his breath, he raised his foot and was about to kick the door.

But reason made him stop immediately, then change hands and knock on the door hard!
"Bang! Bang!"

His heart was beating fast, faster than the number of times he knocked on the door.

Luo Rui was counting the seconds. If the door was not opened within ten seconds, he would kick it!
However, at the eighth second, the door suddenly opened.

His hands froze in the air.

Tao Yanhong's face appeared in front of him. She was wearing pajamas and looked unhappy.

Luo Rui was stunned and swallowed hard.

"Student Luo, you are so anxious, is there something wrong?"

"Uh……"

Luo Rui exhaled, hesitated for a few seconds, and then lied: "My... Yes, I lost my key. I want to ask Sister Tao if you have a spare key?"

Tao Yanhong touched her nose, said nothing, and kept staring at him.

"It's really lost. I just went out to eat and I went out to look for it."

"Okay, I'll give it to you!"

Tao Yanhong said this and turned to walk into the inner room, with the door slightly open.

Through the crack in the door, he saw the little girl in pajamas walking through the crack, followed by the golden retriever, and finally Qu Bo, who was actually carrying a large suitcase in his hand.

Soon, Tao Yanhong handed him the key.

"Don't worry about giving it to me, just give it to my husband tomorrow."

Luo Rui nodded and asked with pretended curiosity: "I just saw my brother-in-law carrying a suitcase. Are you planning to travel tomorrow?"

Tao Yanhong frowned and seemed unhappy to hear this, but she still replied: "Tomorrow morning, my daughter and I will go back to the countryside to stay for a few days."

Luo Rui's heart finally settled down.

If they leave safely tomorrow, there will be no accidents in the next few days.

Just in case, Luo Rui asked, "When will you be back?"

Seeing that the doubts on Tao Yanhong's face were growing stronger and stronger.

He said hurriedly, "It's like this, Miss Cai upstairs is my friend, she helped me find such a good house, so I plan to invite her and you, Sister Tao, to have a meal together."

Tao Yanhong turned from anger to joy: "Ah? Don't be so polite, I'm not renting the house to you for free. Let me calculate, I estimate it will take about a week before I can come back."

Luo Rui was overjoyed: "Okay, it's settled. I'll treat you again when you come back." Tao Yanhong nodded: "Goodbye then..."

"good night!"

She closed the door and when she turned around, she suddenly saw her husband standing behind her with a fruit knife in his hand.

"What do you want to do?"

"Oh, I want to peel an apple for you and your daughter."

"I'll do it myself! Useless thing!"

Tao Yanhong stretched out her hand, and before Qu Bo could react, she snatched the fruit knife from his hand.

She walked into the kitchen cursing.

Qu Bo had a distorted smile on his face, and it seemed as if all his facial features had been swapped.

Luo Rui returned to the house, and he felt relaxed.

I thought to myself that I would go to the door to listen for any sounds later. As long as I could get through tonight, I could agree to Mo Wanqiu's request to go to Luming Mountain for two days tomorrow.

However, he was so tired after several days that he fell asleep as soon as he closed his eyes.

When the first ray of sunlight pierced his eyes, he jumped out of bed.

Opening the door and going downstairs, he jumped down the steps in a hurry.

I happened to meet Tao Yanhong standing in front of the elevator with a suitcase.

The little girl stood behind her, holding the dog leash in her hand.

Tao Yanhong and her daughter did not see Luo Rui. Only the golden retriever named "Xiaomao" turned its head and barked at him softly.

Luo Rui was worried and ran down the stairs.

He stood on the main road and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Tao Yanhong drive the car out of the underground garage.

The window was down and the little girl, who was sitting in the back seat with the dog, saw him and waved.

Luo Rui also smiled and stretched out his hand to greet him.

Then, Luo Rui returned to the house, washed up, and drove out in his Mazda.

After picking up Mo Wanqiu at the gate of the Normal School, the two of them came to the largest shopping mall in Guangxing City.

Luo Rui is going to meet his parents at noon today, and he plans to choose a better gift.

The two of them walked around for the whole morning but didn't find anything that satisfied them.

Men are simple, they just smoke, drink and drink tea, so Luo Rui bought two bottles of Moutai for Mo Liguo.

As for He Chunhua, he is more difficult to deal with.

Next to the mall there is a luxuriously decorated jewelry store called "Wu Fu Jewelry".

Luo Rui took Mo Wanqiu in.

There were a lot of people inside, and it seemed like they were doing some kind of activity.

Mo Wanqiu said that they could just buy something casually, but Luo Rui felt that if he just gave a perfunctory response, he might be criticized in the future.

The counter clerks were very polite. Although they couldn't handle all the customers because there were too many people, they still tried their best to satisfy the customers.

Mo Wanqiu was choosing a bracelet, and she was being entertained by a very beautiful woman.

She was wearing a black business suit and had delicate makeup on her face.

Luo Rui glanced at the ID card on her chest: Ouyang Qian.

This surname is quite rare.

Luo Rui noticed that she was a little absent-minded. While answering Mo Wanqiu's questions, she was also looking at the crowd, as if she was looking for someone.

The innermost display cabinet of this jewelry store is filled with a wide variety of gold jewelry that are jaw-dropping at first glance.

All the customers in the store would stop and look at those valuable things for a while.

Because it was too crowded, Luo Rui didn't squeeze in to take a look, but he heard several customers in the store smacking their lips.

"Wow, a gold necklace costs 380,000, how expensive is that!"

"Fuck, that gold bracelet costs eighty-eight thousand."

"If you have money, buy it for your wife! Gold is a hard currency, and its price is rising every year."

"I don't have the spare money to buy it, but that necklace is really beautiful. It's almost as expensive as a house."

"That necklace seems to have been worn by a famous star, so the jewelry store deliberately brought it out to attract customers."

……

Luo Rui listened to their discussion, stood on tiptoe and looked inside.

The outer area of ​​the platform is separated by red tape and customers are not allowed to enter. There are also several young and strong security guards standing on both sides.

They stood in a row, with their hands behind their backs, staring at the crowd.

The gold necklace in the display case is particularly eye-catching, but it is not made entirely of gold. The pendant is made of three valuable jewels.

This necklace really shines brightly under the light.

Luo Rui withdrew his gaze, and as he passed through the crowd, he seemed to see a familiar figure, but the figure disappeared in a flash.

He thought he was dazzled.

Mo Wanqiu has already chosen two gold bracelets.

Luo Rui took it in his hand and saw that the price was 1666 yuan.

He knew that the girl was worried about her money, but he still felt that the gift was too cheap.

However, under Mo Wanqiu's insistence, he had no choice but to pay the bill.

Mo Wanqiu's home is in a relatively high-end neighborhood with great greenery. If you were playing hide-and-seek, it would be hard to find you if you hid in the grass three steps away.

Luo Rui thought he would be treated coldly when he entered her house.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the room, He Chunhua greeted him with a smile and quickly brought him slippers to change.

Mo Liguo also stood up from his chair, rubbing his hands, looking a little unnatural.

Luo Rui was a little puzzled. In fact, he didn't know that after the old couple left the police station that day, they had already figured out Luo Rui's situation clearly, including the two murder cases he solved in Linjiang City, the murder of the big star Zhu Lizhi, etc.

What's more, as a businessman, Mo Liguo knew about the earthquake that occurred in the Haijiang District Police Station, and Wei Qunshan took office as the new director. The relationship between Luo Rui and Wei Qunshan started in Linjiang City.

And most importantly, although Luo Rui is a freshman at the Criminal Police Academy, he is also the head of the criminal team of the Haijiang Branch.

This kid will definitely have a bright future.

The old couple knew clearly that even if they found a son-in-law who was a rich second-generation, his future could not compare with Luo Rui's.

Luo Rui suddenly realized that he didn't actually dislike this attitude of being rude at first but respectful later. This was the reality of this society.

Few can escape this shackle.
