You're supposed to be a security officer, what case are you solving?

Chapter 89 Lijing Dance Hall! (Seeking monthly votes.)
It was 11 p.m. that night.

In the dressing room backstage of the Lijing Dance Hall in Dayan City.

Zhang Mengmeng, a dancer, was removing her earrings in front of a dressing mirror. The mirror was decorated with circular, milky-white LED lights on both sides, which delicately reflected her face in the mirror.

The colleague sitting next to her said enviously, "Mengmeng, did Brother Lei give you these earrings? They're so beautiful, and they're gold pendants too, they must be worth a lot of money."

Zhang Meng shrugged and laughed, "I didn't intend to take it, but he insisted on giving it to me."

"He's still interested in you."

"No way, I have to marry a rich man. Aren't we in this line of work all for the rest of our lives?"

"That's true, but it's so difficult. Those bosses seem to like you a lot, but once they pin us down on the bed, they pull up their pants and deny everything after a few seconds."

While applying bright lipstick in front of the mirror, Zhang Mengmeng said, "Are you stupid? Why do you have to let them get their way so easily? You need to learn to play hard to get."

My colleague sighed, "Why are you playing hard to get? They don't give you any chance at all. If those bosses take a fancy to someone, they just give the manager a word, and we get taken away."

"You're so lucky, Mengmeng. With Lei Ge and Feng Ge protecting you, several coal mine owners tried to invite you out, but they turned them all away."

“Him?” Zhang Mengmeng sneered, “Aren’t they just dogs for the manager? They’ve been sucking up to him all the time.”

"That's not true. I've noticed Sha Lei has been spending lavishly these past few days. He's been smoking Zhonghua cigarettes and even bought a gold watch. It's like he's struck it rich. Mengmeng, who knows, he might just be your golden bachelor."

"Forget it!" Zhang Mengmeng pouted.

Just then, the door to the dressing room was pushed open, and the manager poked his head in: "Are you all done? It's your turn to go on stage."

Zhang Mengmeng frowned and said, "You haven't changed your clothes yet."

"Hurry up and change it, all the bosses are waiting!"
Let me tell you, Boss Gu opened three bottles of XO today, which are worth a lot of money!
When you're dancing, both of you should look at him more often. He's sitting in the front row, the one in the white suit, you know?

Zhang Mengmeng rolled her eyes, stood up, and unabashedly took off her clothes. She found a bikini on the clothes rack, threw one to a colleague, and then glared at the manager outside the door.

"Manager, do I look good?"

"Beautiful, so white! Really white!"

Zhang Mengmeng closed the door to the dressing room and rolled her eyes.

Two minutes later, the two women opened the door to the dressing room and walked out barefoot through the staff entrance.

The waiter, wearing a suit vest, held a tray in one hand and stepped aside to let them pass.

The stage at the far end erupted in enthusiastic cheers and cacophony of music.

The lobby's glass mirrored ceiling is inlaid with colorful disco balls, and rotating laser spotlights emit dazzling light.

A man stood at the end of the passageway, wearing a black shirt and with his hair styled in a side-part hairstyle. He saw Zhang Mengmeng approaching.

He put his hands in his pockets, blocking the way, and said with a smile, "Mengmeng, after get off work, I'll take you for a drive?"

"Riding your crappy motorcycle?"

“Uh…” Sha Lei touched his nose.

Seeing that he looked unhappy, but knowing she would need his help in the future, Zhang Mengmeng patted him on the shoulder and said, "Wait for me after get off work."

Sha Lei smiled and reached out to smooth his hair from his forehead: "Okay, I'll wait for you."

He stepped aside and watched as more than a dozen dancers dressed in bikinis poured out of the passageway and ran toward the stage one after another.

Immediately, a frenzied shout and whistling erupted from below the stage.

This is the grand finale of the nightly program at the Lijing Dance Hall, a catwalk show featuring women in bikinis.

As the top performer, Zhang Mengmeng took her sisters' hands as soon as she stepped onto the stage, and the dozen or so of them stood in a row and bowed to the audience.

Cat, squeezed in the crowd, only glanced at the stage and saw the bikini, the firm, snow-white long legs, and looking up, even the pubic bone was faintly visible.

His face immediately turned red, and he glanced at Yang Jinwen beside him.

The latter, however, kept his eyes fixed on the aisle on the left side of the stage.

Besides him, several pairs of eyes below the stage also saw Sha Lei.

The man was leaning against the wall, his hands in his pockets, enjoying the spectacle on stage.

Immediately afterwards, Zheng Kang squeezed through the crowd, whispered a few words to a waiter carrying a tray, and took out a ten-yuan note from his wallet and gave it to him.

The waiter nodded, took the money, and left. At this moment, Yang Jinwen, Maozi, and the others left.

Sha Lei was also walking into the passage when he saw Bai Jianfeng walking ahead. He quickened his pace and patted Bai Jianfeng on the shoulder: "Brother Feng, where are you going?"

Bai Jianfeng was a tall, strong man with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He replied, "Someone is looking for me at the back door."

"Oh, want to grab a drink after get off work? I've invited Mengmeng, and if we bring another girl along, we'll..."

Sha Lei pulled his hands back and thrust his hips forward, the meaning of which was self-evident.

Bai Jianfeng frowned and pointed to the gold watch on his wrist: "What did Brother Tianquan say before he left? Don't flaunt your wealth. You better watch yourself and don't let the police come knocking on your door. Also, Mengmeng is someone Brother Tianquan has his eye on, so you'd better be careful."

Sha Lei covered the gold watch with his other hand and laughed, "Brother Feng, Brother Tianquan isn't coming back. He's going to do something big."

"Anyway, keep an eye on him and don't touch his woman!" Bai Jianfeng glared at him. "Alright, I'm going to get busy."

As soon as Bai Jianfeng left, Sha Lei turned around and bumped into a waiter carrying a tray.

"Brother Lei, someone outside is looking for you."

Sha Lei frowned: "Who is it?"

“I don’t know him. He said he lives in the bearing compound of the tractor factory.”

Sha Lei squinted and muttered, "What's he doing here?"

"Okay, go ahead and get busy." He patted the waiter on the shoulder.

Sha Lei walked to the side of the stage, turned his head and looked at Zhang Mengmeng on the stage. She was dancing, spreading her long legs, sticking out her buttocks, leaning forward, and constantly throwing flirtatious glances at the coal bosses sitting in the front row.

"So sexy." Sha Lei clicked his tongue, feeling a tickle in his heart.

He went down from the side of the stage, squeezed through the crowd along the edge of the ballroom, and strode towards the main entrance.

The laser lights on the ceiling rotated continuously, shining on the guests' heads.

The air was filled with a mixture of sweat, cheap perfume, and the smell of burning electricity.

Sha Lei stepped up the stairs and pushed open the glass door.

The night wind blowing in from outside cleared his head a little.

But now!
Sha Lei suddenly heard footsteps behind him. When he turned around, a burlap sack was quickly slung over his head—this was done by Yang Jinwen.

"Who is your mother?!"

He waved his hands, trying to remove the cloth bag covering his head, but was kicked to the ground—it was Zheng Kang who kicked him.

He struggled to get up, when suddenly he felt someone knee pressing against his waist—it was the cat.

His legs were kicked open – this was done by Xu Guoliang.

Immediately afterwards, his wrists were twisted behind his back, and his wrists touched the cold metal.

at the same time.

The back door of Lijing Dance Hall.

As soon as Bai Jianfeng arrived at the door, everything went black; his head was also covered by a burlap sack.

The difference was that when his wrist was twisted, he heard a gruff voice laughing loudly.

"Captain He, Yang Jinwen's idea is pretty good. Damn, covering our heads with cloth bags, what a brilliant idea! Haha, it makes us look like thugs..."

But two seconds later, Jiang Jianbing's smile froze on his face.

Two gunshots suddenly rang out in the dance hall.

"Bang! Bang!"

"Oh no! Old Zheng and his men have failed!"

He Jinbo swallowed hard and called to Jiang Jianbing, "Take the person away quickly, the rest of you come in with me!"

At the front gate, Zheng Kang and Yang Jinwen heard the gunshots even more clearly.

Zheng Kang's eyebrows twitched, he gripped his pistol tightly, and shouted, "Damn it, Captain He and his team have messed up!"
Old Xu, Cat, you two hurry up and put the man in the car. The rest of you come inside with me!
