As Sir Zhang said, he took out five hundred dollars again, but this time because Qiqi's upper body was not restrained, even if she was very talented, it was impossible to hold on to the money.
Zhang Pin put the money in Qiqi's hand with some pity: "I believe you can help, right?"
"Brother, let me tell you the truth, the owner of this bath center is not serious. The VIP room is actually similar to the ordinary room, and there are many club members in it. If there is any misunderstanding when you go in, you may suffer a loss."
Qiqi obviously has no resistance to Sir Zhang at this moment.
In fact, she wanted to have close contact with Sir Zhang just now, but Sir Zhang was unwilling.
When she heard that Zhang Pin wanted to go to the VIP room, she confessed to Zhang Pin the details about the bathing center.
"Members of the club, what you said makes me want to get to know each other even more, but if I mess with them, I won't implicate you then."
Although Sir Zhang wanted to take advantage of Qiqi from the beginning, after all, the other party made him feel comfortable just now, so he naturally couldn't turn around and sell her off.
"That's not possible. We are here to help the club make money. Besides, boss, what does your personal behavior have to do with us."
Unexpectedly, when Zhang Pin asked, Qiqi seemed to see something.
"Hey, you are very experienced."
Zhang Pin looked at the other party with a smile, while wondering if he had been exposed.
"Hey, this is a foreign country. It's not easy to make a living here. I've been working here for two years, and the boss of the bathing city has changed four times."
As if she had guessed what Zhang Pin might do, Qiqi's words were not as delicate as they were at first, but instead had a certain refreshing energy.
"Very good, please help me arrange it. I'll go up and have a rest for the night."
Zhang Pin nodded, regardless of whether Qiqi guessed something or whether the other party would report it in advance.
Carter's words before gave him a wake-up call.
These bathing towns, bars and billiard halls are all places where these people make money, so as long as the trouble does not reach a certain level, even if the boss behind him knows that he and others are here to cause trouble, the other party will not die.
hand.
In this case, Sir Zhang naturally has nothing to worry about.
Not to mention that he and Carter still have legitimate identities, so there is definitely no need to worry about their safety.
Under Qiqi's guidance, Sir Zhang quickly arrived at the VIP room.
Unexpectedly, this place is not an independent room, but a series of lounge chairs similar to those in the foot washing city.
At this time, there were already many people in the hall, and it was indeed as Qiqi said, many of them had dragons and phoenixes on their faces, and they were not good people at first glance.
In the front row, there was only one person sitting there, holding a computer and seemed to be working.
When Sir Zhang went up, the other party also heard the noise and looked back.
Oh, he is actually a handsome old Chinese guy.
Zhang Pin recognized this guy as Tan Ruiqi at a glance.
"Hello!"
After the two people's eyes met, to Zhang Pin's expectation, Tan Ruiqi actually greeted him with a smile.
".Hello."
Zhang Pin glanced at the other party in surprise: "Do we know each other?"
"I don't know you, but you came to America to travel, right? Oriental? We are fellow villagers."
To Sir Zhang's expectation, he originally thought that Tan Ruiqi had known him for a long time, so he greeted him. However, based on his tone, he actually said hello just because he looked like a fellow countryman.
"Yes, you are here to travel too?"
Since Tan Ruiqi took the initiative to chat, Zhang Pin certainly didn't mind chatting with him.
"No, I immigrated here a long time ago and now I am the owner of this store."
Tan Ruiqi is very candid.
Zhang Pin: "Wow, that's amazing."
He really thought it was amazing, after all, this sanitary ware store is considered one of the signatures in Chinatown.
Tan Ruiqi: "It's just good luck. Have fun. If you have any needs, just ask. I'll ask the manager to give you a discount."
If he hadn't known about Tan Ruiqi's details earlier, and heard what the other party said, Zhang Pin would probably have thought that the other party was a personable businessman.
"Okay, thank you very much."
But now that he knew the identity of the other party, it seemed that Tan Ruiqi was really just being polite to entertain customers, so he was not ready to continue chatting with the other party.
"You're welcome, Qiqi, remember to give the customer a fruit plate. Tell Manager Luo that you can give the customer a 50% discount."
It seems that Tan Ruiqi really didn't say it casually, and the intensity of the discount was somewhat beyond Sir Zhang's expectations.
"I wish you a prosperous business."
Although Sir Zhang himself is not short of money for discounts, and if there is a fuss later, it is up to him whether to pay or not, but Tan Ruiqi's attitude is indeed very comfortable.
At this point, Sir Zhang suspected that even if this was actually a trick played by the store, the price was very high at first, and Tan Ruiqi waited here on purpose, but after hearing the 50% discount, the customers would probably be very happy.
At least Sir Zhang was indeed in a happy mood when he was taking a rest.
"You also have some fun."
Tan Ruiqi saw that Sir Zhang was not ready to continue the conversation, so he lowered his head and prepared to continue working.
"Richie, Ricky Tan, right? Get up, I have something to talk to you about!"
But at this moment, a black arm stretched out in front of Tan Ruiqi and dangled twice in front of him.
It turned out that Carter had finished his work and happened to come to the VIP room at this moment.
Because they had seen Tan Ruiqi's information before the operation started, but Zhang Pin did not expect that Carter could actually recognize Tan Ruiqi in front of so many Asians. This is actually a very difficult thing for foreigners.
For many white people or black people, yellow people all look similar to them.
Of course, it may also be because Tan Ruiqi's appearance is really impressive.
"I'm very busy now!"
However, in response to Carter's words, Tan Ruiqi changed his previous enthusiasm with Zhang Pin and now refused Carter's arrangement without raising his head.
Carter: "Hey, did you hear me? I'm very busy too. Stand up! Come on, hurry up!"
Carter was naturally very angry at Tan Ruiqi's attitude.
Tan Ruiqi: "I guess I don't know you, brother, maybe you are a comedian. I'm sorry, please find someone else to cooperate with you. I'm at work now."
Tan Ruiqi glanced at Carter, then rejected Carter's request again, and then he seemed to be preparing to send an email through the computer.
"Damn it, you Asian, since you can't understand English, then don't come to America. Uncle Carter now orders! You! Get! Your! Your! Ass that deserves to be blown away from this chair
, do you understand?”
Carter was obviously irritated by Tan Ruiqi's words, especially when he saw that Tan Ruiqi actually ignored him and started working.
So he directly grabbed Tan Ruiqi's computer and smashed it to the ground.
Then he stepped on the computer hard while making his request to the other party word by word.
Because Tan Ruiqi's position was at the front of the hall, Carter happened to be stepping on the computer with his back to him at the moment.
So Carter didn't notice that when he grabbed Tan Ruiqi's computer and destroyed it, a dozen strong men suddenly stood up in the VIP room.
But at this time, Tan Ruiqi waved his hand behind him, and all the thugs who had stood up sat down again.
"Do you know that you wasted a good holiday of mine, and Uncle Carter worked very hard to find you today."
Carter was sure that the computer was irrecoverable after being trampled to pieces by him, so he turned around and looked at Tan Ruiqi again.
"Carter, please stop talking."
Just as Carter stepped on Tan Ruiqi's computer, Chen Jiaju also came upstairs. He happened to see the scene of a dozen thugs standing up.
At this moment, seeing Carter directly approach Tan Ruiqi, Chen Jiaju quickly came over, hugged Carter who seemed to be about to take action, and wanted to persuade him.
"Jiaju. Is that you?"
Just when Chen Jiaju and Carter were arguing, Tan Ruiqi, who was sitting down, suddenly stood up in surprise.
"Ricky Encore."
Chen Jiaju was obviously hesitant when he heard Tan Ruiqi's words, but in the end he still called him uncle.
Tan Ruiqi's face showed visible happiness and relief: "It's really you. I haven't seen you for a long time. You look just like your father. When did you come to America? Why didn't you contact me?"
When he said these words, he seemed to really regard Chen Jiaju as a junior, and he was still complaining a little at this moment.
"It's a long story. I came here this time because I want to ask you something."
Compared with Tan Ruiqi's rich emotions, Chen Jiaju's performance is actually very dull.
In fact, at first, he wanted to confront Tan Ruiqi angrily, but now seeing Tan Ruiqi's expression, he was a little speechless.
"Whatever it is, just tell me. I've been pretty good in America these years, and I'm sure I can help."
Tan Ruiqi didn't seem to notice the discomfort on Chen Jiaju's face at all, and he spoke loudly now.
"I am here this time to investigate a case in which two American consuls were murdered. I would like to ask you and me to return to Hong Kong Island and accept the investigation."
Chen Jiaju hesitated for a moment, but finally kept a straight face and got ready to do business.
Tan Ruiqi laughed directly: "It's so serious. I heard that you were a policeman in Hong Kong Island. I didn't expect that you not only look like your father, but also have exactly the same personality. But are you mistaken? This is Ameili
Ka, you don’t have the power to enforce the law, right? If you have any questions, just tell me here and I will try my best to cooperate with your work.”
On the surface, Tan Ruiqi seemed a little sad about Chen Jiaju's official business.
At this time, Chen Jiaju suddenly ignored Tan Ruiqi and winked at Carter. He bared his teeth and signaled Carter to pay attention to his surroundings.
Carter obviously felt Chen Jiaju's actions.
But he will get it wrong.
Carter, who couldn't bear it any longer, strode up to Tan Ruiqi and grabbed the collar of his bathrobe with both hands.
"You damn little bastard, what are you talking about about law enforcement rights? Come with me and buy it!"
After Carter caught Tan Ruiqi, he originally wanted to teach him a lesson.
As a result, when he caught Tan Ruiqi, he discovered that a dozen guys with colorful tattoos suddenly stood up around Tan Ruiqi.
So he immediately let go of Tan Ruiqi's hand, and instead gently stroked the other person's arms: "I want to compensate for your laptop, and I have to compensate."
Tan Ruiqi was also a little amused by Carter's change of expression, but he shook his head magnanimously: "No, it seems you are Jiaju's friend."
Tan Ruiqi looked at Chen Jiaju again: "Jiaju, where are you staying recently? Do you want to stay at my house? Well, then you and your friends can have fun."
Tan Ruiqi originally wanted to invite Chen Jiaju to his home, but after seeing Chen Jiaju's serious expression, he shook his head, then nodded to the people around him, and then prepared to leave.
Click——
But at this moment, the door to the VIP room was opened, and a woman with a ponytail and a suit walked in.
"Hu Li, what are you doing here!"
Seeing the woman's appearance, Tan Ruiqi, who had always been confident, showed a rare expression of anger on his face.
And it seemed that he had no intention of hiding it at all.
Hu Li's face was completely unmoved by Tan Ruiqi's words. It was a bit like Tan Ruiqi's face to Carter just now: "Mr. Stephen asked me to come."
Tan Ruiqi: "Press me with Stephen. You have forgotten who brought you here. America, you have grown up now and your wings have become stronger, right? Get out of here! Damn it!"
Tan Ruiqi seemed to be really angry about the sudden appearance of Hu Li, and from his few words, it seemed that it was a story about betrayal.
To be honest, the content is probably not that short.
"Jiaju, I don't know why you came all the way from Hong Kong Island to America to find me, but I have to tell you that those things were not done by me."
Seeing Hu Li appear, Tan Ruiqi suddenly stopped leaving. Instead, he and Chen Jiaju were ready to play the emotional card.
"Is it really not you who did it? From what you said, it doesn't sound like you don't know anything."
Chen Jiaju calmed down now.
He actually found the loophole in Tan Ruiqi's words in an instant. The other party obviously knew something about what happened on Hong Kong Island.
"I do know something. I have encountered some troubles recently. I am afraid that I will lose with a high probability this time. If your father is still here, I will definitely ask him for help. He is my best partner."
Tan Ruiqi spoke with some emotion.
"Please don't mention my father. This time I came to ask you whether my father's death had something to do with you."
However, Chen Jiaju was not deceived by Tan Ruiqi's words. Instead, when the other party mentioned his father, he simply made the matter clear.
"What are you talking about? Your father and I have been good friends for many years. I feel really guilty about his death, so I quit my job as a police officer."
