"How many people are there? Do you have an appointment?"
Before Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei could react to the scene on the dance floor, a young and handsome male waiter had already arrived in front of them.
"You two." Lu Weiwei said.
The male waiter immediately gave up his seat, pointed to a booth and said, "Can I sit here?"
"Okay." Lu Weiwei nodded silently, held hands with Gu Chen, and followed the waiter.
After arranging the seats, the waiter immediately opened the meal book and asked, "What would you like to drink?"
"Uh, we are waiting for our friends, can you wait a moment?" Lu Weiwei said.
The waiter hesitated for a moment, then nodded silently: "Okay, if you need anything, please tell me."
"Okay." Gu Chen also nodded in agreement.
After the waiter left, Lu Weiwei approached Gu Chen and whispered, "Isn't this Lily working here?"
"You should remove the word 'should'. In my opinion, this Lily does work here." Gu Chen pointed at a few young women casually and reminded:
"Look at their clothes, makeup, and even the tattoos on their chests. They are exactly the same."
"Tsk!" Upon hearing that Gu Chen was looking at the tattoos on the chests of these young women so carefully, Lu Weiwei frowned and hit Gu Chen's chest with her fist: "Junior Brother Gu, where are you looking?"
Gu Chen's eyes were stunned: "I..."
"Forget it, you definitely didn't mean it." Seeing Gu Chen's aggrieved look, Lu Weiwei stopped caring and instead spoke for Gu Chen:
"These women are all wearing this kind of deep V-neck skirts, and the tattoos on their chests are so obvious. It doesn't matter if you notice them. After all, they are still quite obvious."
After a pause, Lu Weiwei added: "Take that Lily, for example, when I was in the hospital ward before, I also discovered that she had a rose tattooed on her chest."
"And when we came in just now, the women we passed by also had rose tattoos on their chests. It felt like this was their standard outfit for working here."
"Maybe." Gu Chen couldn't say for sure.
Just by looking at the women walking on the dance floor, I could tell that Lily might be with them.
As time goes by, more and more young men and women begin to arrive.
Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei's booths were quickly surrounded by many young men and women.
Everyone began to wave their arms to the rhythm of the music on the stage, seeming to be immersed in the noisy atmosphere.
Gu Chen, on the other hand, never gave up looking for Lily, and kept looking around.
I don’t know how long it took, but a group of beautiful bunny girls suddenly appeared on the stage. All the bunny girls stood in a row and began to dance to the rhythm of the DJ.
The customers below the stage began to dance along with the music.
Through his master's level of observation, Gu Chen discovered at a glance that among the four bunny girls, the one standing on the far left was none other than Lily, whom everyone had met in the hospital before.
Patting Lu Weiwei on the shoulder, Gu Chen pointed to the far left side of the stage and reminded: "Sister Lu, look at the one on the far left."
"It's her, it's Lily." Lu Weiwei followed Gu Chen's guidance and quickly discovered Lily's traces.
At this moment, Lu Weiwei said angrily: "This woman really works here, how could she be from Shanghai? It seems that we have all been deceived by this Zhang Wenkai."
"Zhang Wenkai is a serious suspect." Gu Chen thought for a moment and saw a young male waiter walking through the crowd carrying an empty plate.
Gu Chen immediately waved to him.
Seeing this, the male waiter walked over quickly: "Sir, what do you need?"
"Is the bunny girl on the far left on the stage called Lily?" Gu Chen asked.
The waiter turned around and looked carefully for a few seconds before turning back and saying, "Yes, her name is Xu Wenli. She is a staff member here and works part-time in public relations."
After a pause, the waiter asked again: "Excuse me, sir, do you need any service?"
"Ahem." Feeling that the waiter was ignoring her presence, Lu Weiwei coughed twice and continued to ask:
"Since she is a publicist, what services does she provide?"
"This..." The waiter scratched the back of his head, but still took the initiative to explain: "This Xu Wenli usually works as a lead dancer in our bar atmosphere group, and works part-time as a public relations person outside of work."
"Whenever a customer needs help with business matters, whether it's a business trip, escort, business travel assistant, etc., she'll do it as long as she pays."
"That means she has always been working at your place, right?" Gu Chen asked.
The waiter nodded silently: "Before the opening, she worked at the nightclub next door. After our opening, the boss hired her from next door with a lot of money, and she has been working here ever since."
"Okay, thank you." Gu Chen nodded silently, finally understanding the whole story of Lily.
Co-author This is just the female publicist Zhang Wenkai hired from the nightclub, not his girlfriend of seven years in Shanghai at all.
But as soon as the two met, they kissed each other like no one else was watching. With such openness, it felt like they had just met each other.
Obviously, Zhang Wenkai and this Lily are old friends, maybe they are also old customers.
Thinking of this, Gu Chen couldn't help but become confused.
I just wanted to see if Officer Wang could find any clues.
At least if the investigation reveals that Zhang Wenkai left the hospital ward last night and went to the site where Wang Baocheng and He Jun died, it would mean that he is inseparable from the throat-cutting incident.
"Sir, sir." Seeing that Gu Chen still didn't order, he sat there thoughtfully.
The waiter reminded again: "Excuse me, what do you want? You two have been sitting here for a long time. We have a minimum consumption here."
Feeling that there was no need to beat around the bush with the waiter, Gu Chen directly took out his police ID card, showed it in front of the waiter and said:
"I'm from the Criminal Investigation Team of Furong Branch. I'll ask Xu Wenli to come to my place after her performance is over."
"Police...police?" Seeing that it was someone he could not afford to offend, the young male waiter was immediately speechless.
Lu Weiwei continued to remind: "Did you hear what we said?"
"Oh, listen...I heard it. You want Xu Wenli to come to your place after she finishes dancing, right?" the male waiter stuttered.
Lu Weiwei nodded silently: "That's right."
"Okay, then you guys sit down for a while and I'll make arrangements." Seeing the policeman sitting on the spot, the male waiter didn't dare to slack off and left with the empty plate.
At this moment, the atmosphere on the stage gradually entered a climax stage.
Many middle-aged greasy men in the booths, and even many white-haired old men, were pulled onto the stage by young girls, and danced together to the rhythm of the music under the illumination of various spotlights.
However, at this time, the bunny girls on the stage also just left the stage and went to rest off the stage.
Lily, on the other hand, was stopped by the male waiter just now. After communicating with her, he took her directly to the booth in front of Gu Chen.
"Comrade police, I brought you the person you are looking for." Because the music was too loud, the male waiter could only put his ear to Gu Chen's ear and shouted loudly.
Lily, who was standing behind the waiter and dressed as a bunny girl, didn't react at first when she realized it was Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei.
But after thinking about it carefully for two seconds, he couldn't help but be stunned, and turned around to run away.
But at this moment, Lu Weiwei, with quick eyes and quick hands, grabbed the bunny tail dressed as a bunny girl by Xu Wenli and pulled it back to her side.
"Why are you running?"
"Police...comrade police, I...I don't know you." Xu Wenli was arrested, covering her cheek with her right hand and looking nervous.
Lu Weiwei laughed angrily and said: "You don't know us? Then let me help you recall your memories. Not long ago, in the hospital ward, you kissed Zhang Wenkai in front of us, but you don't remember it.
?”
"Ah? What...what Zhang Wenkai? I don't know Zhang Wenkai. I think you have the wrong person. Oops..."
Before Xu Wenli finished speaking, Lu Weiwei pulled off the rabbit ears on her head.
At this time, Xu Wenli panicked and quickly covered her cheeks with both hands, lowered her head and shivered.
Lu Weiwei smiled coldly: "Xu Wenli, don't think that if you dress up as a bunny girl, we won't recognize you. We have been following you from the hospital all the way here. How about we go out and chat?"
Hearing this, Xu Wenli glanced at the male waiter beside her.
The male waiter had an innocent look on his face, spread his hands and said, "I don't know what the police comrade wants to do with you? Why don't you go out and chat with the police comrades, and don't disturb the guests here."
"Okay." Feeling that the last straw was gone, Xu Wenli sighed and could only nod silently.
Later, Xu Wenli, surrounded by Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei, arrived at the outside of the dance floor.
After walking out of the dance floor door, several people came to a corner again.
Gu Chen found a fire escape and took Xu Wenli there.
Lu Weiwei took out the law enforcement recorder and recorded the scene.
Gu Chen took out his notebook and asked, "Who are you?"
"My name is Xu Wenli." Xu Wenli lowered her head and did not dare to look up.
"Please report your ID number." Gu Chen said.
Xu Wenli had no choice but to confess honestly: "The ID number is..."
After completing the operation, Gu Chen continued to ask: "What is your relationship with Zhang Wenkai?"
"I...I have nothing to do with him?"
"Tell me the truth." Seeing Xu Wenli playing riddles here again, Lu Weiwei reminded her in a strange way.
Xu Wenli was a little afraid of Lu Weiwei, so she could only tell the truth: "He...he came to the bar a few times with friends. I drank with them a few times, and we got to know each other."
"Later, Zhang Wenkai came here alone several times in private. I also drank with him, and we became familiar with him after going back and forth."
"Then how did you become his girlfriend in Shanghai?" Gu Chen asked again after recording all this.
Xu Wenli was a little embarrassed and said angrily: "I'm just using people's money to eliminate disasters."
"I don't know why Zhang Wenkai did this? Anyway, he gave me money and asked me to pretend to be his girlfriend in Shanghai and come to the hospital to visit him."
"Then he asked me to be enthusiastic when meeting him, so I followed his wishes and met him enthusiastically. I even kissed him. Is this enough enthusiasm?"
"Pfft!" Listening to Xu Wenli pouring out her bitter words, Lu Weiwei couldn't help but laugh.
She didn't know that it happened to be because of this kiss that she revealed that Xu Wenli was not Zhang Wenkai's girlfriend of seven years in Shanghai.
After trying to calm down, Lu Weiwei continued to ask her: "So Zhang Wenkai asked you to do all this?"
"Yes, he gave me money and asked me to do this. If I don't make any money, am I stupid?"
"Although I don't know why he did this, it's none of my business. I work part-time in public relations, and I have met all kinds of customers with all kinds of weird requests."
"So Zhang Wenkai is pretty good. As long as I visit him in the hospital and pretend to be his girlfriend, I'll take the money and leave. It's easy to make money."
"Okay." Seeing that Xu Wenli was honest, Gu Chen recorded everything in the record and handed the transcript over and said, "Sign here."
"Okay, is this here?" Xu Wenli said.
Lu Weiwei's eyes widened, and Xu Wenli didn't dare to say anything for a moment, and quickly signed her name as required.
…
…
When we walked out of the Golden Coast Bar, it was getting late.
Various neon lights flash on the roadside, making the whole street look particularly lively.
"Hurry up. If you don't hurry up, you won't be able to move."
Just when Lu Weiwei and Gu Chen were about to take a taxi back, a middle-aged woman reminded her best friend, who seemed to be in a hurry.
The middle-aged woman's best friend was carrying the large and small bags she had purchased, and said impatiently: "Hurry up, hurry up, don't you know how to help me carry my things?"
This chapter is not over yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "If I don't tell you to hurry up, there will be no seats in that restaurant. That restaurant has a lot of rules. I don't want to wait in line." Middle-aged woman
I'm also not in a good mood.
But at this moment, Lu Weiwei's stomach didn't live up to expectations and started to growl.
Touching her hungry belly, Lu Weiwei also looked curious, and took the initiative to ask: "Is the restaurant you just mentioned delicious? What restaurant is so popular?"
The middle-aged woman looked Lu Weiwei up and down, and said politely: "It's not a particularly big restaurant. It's a small, secret hotel in a village in the city. The boss is an internet celebrity."
"He built a small courtyard there, opened the business, and cooked some of his own specialties."
As soon as the middle-aged woman here finished speaking, the middle-aged woman over there carrying large and small bags quickly echoed:
"There are only 6 tables in the courtyard of my shop, and each table can only accommodate 4 customers at a time. Children are not allowed. Moreover, each table only serves three dishes. You have to prepare meals yourself."
"Is there such a thing?" Upon hearing what these two women said, Lu Weiwei, a foodie, was instantly curious and asked:
"Where is this store? I'm quite familiar with the food in this area, why haven't I heard of it?"
The middle-aged woman grinned: "This store has just been opened for about a week. The address is in Xinghua Village. Anyway, drive there and follow the signboard to find the store."
"Stop talking, we have to hurry over. After all, there's no point in making a reservation now. It's been so popular recently. We have to wait in line to eat."
As soon as the words fell, the two middle-aged women threw their large and small bags into the car and then drove away quickly.
At this time, Lu Weiwei had a new idea and quickly pulled Gu Chen and said: "Junior Brother Gu, there is no news from Lao Wang and Xiao Yuan anyway, why don't we go to that restaurant to have dinner first, what do you think?
"
"That's okay, but Senior Sister Lu, didn't you hear just now? You have to queue up to eat, and there are quite a few rules."
"Of course I heard it, but there are many rules, which shows where the person's strength lies. We will know if it is delicious or not. We will taste it."
I feel like if I encounter this kind of restaurant, I have to go and try it out.
Gu Chen had no choice but to nod and agree: "Okay, let's take a taxi there."
"Yes." Seeing that Gu Chen agreed, Lu Weiwei nodded firmly.
…
…
Xinghua Village is located on the edge of Furong District, Jiangnan City. There are many properties in the surrounding business district, most of which are newly built properties.
Several urban villages such as Xinghua Village are staggered in the center of these real estates.
When Gu Chen and Lu Weiwei drove to the intersection of Xinghua Village, they indeed found a signboard that said "Secret Courtyard".
After getting off the car, Lu Weiwei knocked on the signboard and burst out laughing: "This boss is so funny, handwriting? Can't you spend money to make a decent signboard?"
"I think this is quite personal." Gu Chen still had his own opinions on hand-written signs.
Lu Weiwei nodded silently and said indifferently: "The aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys. A delicious restaurant should have its own characteristics. I used to visit this street with my best friends, but I didn't find such a small alley.
"
"It seems like we are lucky today." Gu Chen had already heard that Lu Weiwei's stomach was going on strike again, so he quickly reminded: "Let's go over and take a look."
"Yes." Lu Weiwei nodded silently, hooked Gu Chen's arm, and the two of them walked side by side towards the alley.
Passing through the buildings on the outskirts of the urban village, the further you go in, the older the buildings appear.
Just when the two were about to reach an open space in front of them, they heard a lot of noise. They turned around and saw that the center of an open space in a city village was surrounded by a fence.
In the courtyard, 6 retro Eight Immortals tables are placed, each of which seats four customers.
Not only that, there were many people taking photos and checking in outside, making it very lively.
Gu Chen took a closer look and saw that in the middle of the small courtyard surrounded by fences, there was a hand-built thatched house and an original water well.
The surrounding decoration has the atmosphere of various retro farmhouses.
Even the stone steps seem to have been paved freshly, making the whole courtyard full of privacy.
There are red lanterns hanging high at the entrance of the courtyard, and the calligraphy written on them is refreshing.
This is a pure open-air courtyard, and the place where the chef cooks is an old farmhouse across the road from the courtyard.
"Senior Sister Lu, I think we should forget it. We have to wait until dinner, which will probably take more than an hour."
Seeing that the door was already lined with customers who had clocked in, and it seemed that they hadn't queued up yet, Gu Chen immediately backed down.
