Rebirth 2014: I, the King of Criminal Investigation

Chapter 28 Some things cannot be stopped halfway
Looking at the familiar number displayed on the mobile phone screen, Qu Tuotuo's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and he felt a little at a loss.

Taking a deep breath, she pressed the answer icon on the screen.

"Hey?"

"What's the matter? If you have something to say, please speak quickly. I'm eating."

Hearing Yu Dazhang's impatient tone, Qu Tuotuo immediately relaxed and said unhappily:

"I can't call you if everything is fine?"

"Uh... I didn't mean that." Yu Dazhang admitted his mistake decisively.

Feeling that he was a little afraid of her, Qu Tuotuo couldn't help but toughen up.

"Where can we eat?"

"Home."

"How much did you eat?"

What's this for? It sounds like a kindergarten teacher asking a child... Yu Dazhang replied patiently:

"Half full."

What he meant was: Stop talking nonsense, it is very immoral to disturb people while they are eating.

Unexpectedly, Qu Tuotuo didn't think about it that way at all.

Hearing that Yu Dazhang was only half full, she said happily:

"Then don't eat yet, and save half of your stomach for me to eat with you."

"Impossible." Yu Dazhang directly refused:
"Eating is the same as eating something else. You can't stop in the middle."

Qu Tuotuo: ????
What did he say?

What kind of thing and what kind of thing?

Just as he was about to ask for details, Yu Dazhang spoke first:
"I've been too busy these days. When I have some free time, I'll treat you to a meal."

"Really?" Qu Tuotuo felt that he was just trying to fool her.

"It's just a meal. How can I deny it?" Yu Dazhang's voice became increasingly unclear.

"Don't worry, I promise to treat you to a good meal."

When he spoke the latter part, Qu Tuotuo could hardly hear clearly, but fortunately she could guess what he said.

This bastard must be stuffing food into his mouth... She suppressed her anger and said:

"Then it's settled."

"Hmmmm~, that's it, auntie."

After hanging up the phone, Yu Dazhang continued to show off his fandom.

Li Xuehe, who was standing by, looked at her son with shining eyes:

"Who was that girl on the phone just now?"

She didn't hear the content of the phone call clearly, but she recognized the girl's voice.

She couldn't help but get excited at the thought that her son might be in love.

Yu Dazhang thought about it and found it a bit difficult to explain, but since his mother asked, he had to give an explanation:

"A friend who is not really a friend."

"What?" Li Xuehe reached out and took the meat and vegetables in front of Yu Dazhang:
"Speak to me properly."

Yu Dazhang stretched out his chopsticks towards the dish, and seeing his mother's firm attitude, he had to explain:

"A victim from a previous case has been very grateful to me since he was rescued. We are not that familiar with each other, we can just be considered acquaintances."

Although he didn't tell the details, he didn't lie.

To sum up, this is indeed the case.

"That's not right." Li Xuehe was not easy to fool. She stared at her son:

"I just heard you say you wanted to treat that girl to a meal, and you also said you wanted to treat her to a good meal."

A girl contacts you on her own initiative and you two even plan to have dinner together. Can this be just a casual acquaintance?

She actually hopes that her son can meet the opposite sex, after all, he is old enough.

As long as the woman is a normal person and can live a peaceful life, it's enough. With her son's weight, why does he need a watch?

"Mom..."

Yu Dazhang put down his chopsticks and looked at Li Xuehe seriously:
"Didn't you hear that it was just a compliment? Let me tell you, her family's conditions are completely different from ours." In his previous life, Yu Dazhang was in his thirties and had long passed the age of hormones overflowing.

I am deeply touched by the saying "Fairy tales are all lies."

What's more, as a criminal policeman, he is more rational and calm than ordinary people.

But when Li Xuehe heard the good conditions, she became even more interested.

"Tell me the details. Is his family a small business?"

Mom, your understanding of the word "good conditions" is still stuck in the era of ten thousand yuan households... Yu Dazhang had no choice but to explain it in a more vivid way.

"Her house is so big..." He did some stretching exercises:
"You know the villa? It looks like it has at least five floors. It has a luxury car and a full-time driver. Well, I won't mention the driver. Anyway, he is rich. He is rich."

Li Xuehe looked at her son's drastic movements and listened to his exaggerated tone, and images appeared in her mind.

"What's wrong with having money?" Li Xuehe straightened her back firmly, with an unconvinced expression on her face:
"We are not the kind of family that is greedy for money. You young people should interact normally. If it is suitable, then get along. If it is not suitable, forget it."

Wow~, you have a strong ability to withstand pressure... Yu Dazhang decided to make his mother give up at once.

There is no way. If I don’t make this matter clear today, I will inevitably be annoyed by my mother in the future.

"Let me tell you this. If I treat her to a meal, I'll have to use your retirement savings."

Li Xuehe: !!!!!!
"What can you eat that costs so much money?"

When Yu Dazhang saw his mother's surprised expression, he knew that he had achieved his goal.

My mother had already given up and asked this question purely out of curiosity.

"After all, you have lived in Songhai for so many years. Is it uncommon to spend tens of thousands of yuan on a meal in this city?"

"Well, that's true." Li Xuehe was discouraged.

She knew clearly that just because her family couldn't afford it didn't mean that other families couldn't.

I heard that for wealthy families, food alone costs at least six figures per month.

This does not include social engagements outside. If all were counted, Li Xuehe couldn't even imagine it, fearing that her heart wouldn't be able to take it.

Therefore, it is very important to marry someone of the same social status.

Do you think it would be comfortable to become relatives with a rich family?
Haha, when they really get along with each other, the way they look at you is like they are looking at Zhu Yuanzhang before the uprising.

Without a strong heart, you really can't bear that kind of look.
.
The next day, in the Criminal Investigation Brigade meeting room.

Yu Dazhang carried breakfast and distributed it to each member of the task force.

"Master, here is your favorite beef bun."

Lu Zhongxin stretched and shook his neck.

Then he put the clothes covering his body on the back of the chair, and then reached out to take the breakfast handed to him by Yu Dazhang.

"I eat steamed buns every morning for convenience, not because I like them."

This shows that he has something against me... Yu Dazhang could hear the dissatisfaction in his master's words.

I must be blaming myself for going home early yesterday.

It seemed that everyone in the task force, except himself, had spent the night in the conference room.

"What stage did the interrogation reach last night?"

Yu Dazhang pretended not to hear and held Lu Zhongxin's hand while talking.

Lu Zhongxin was stunned and felt something was wrong.

Looking down, Yu Dazhang had pulled his hand back, leaving a pack of cigarettes in his hand.

"Still grinding." Lu Zhongxin put the cigarette on the table, picked up the bun and took a bite.

After eating a bun, he continued:

"It will probably take another day to get the results."

"It's really efficient." Yu Dazhang praised.

This is not flattery, but what he really thinks.

In his estimation, this tug-of-war would last at least two days.

The reason why the progress was accelerated was entirely due to the hard work of Lu Zhongxin and his team.

After waiting for a while, Yu Dazhang saw that everyone had finished eating, so he stood up and said:
"Let me tell you about today's mission."
