At this time, Chen Zhaozhong came up with two plates of dishes, one was his signature Cantonese roast goose, and the other was his specialty marinated platter.
He placed the dishes in front of Ye Chen and Gu Qiuyi, and said to them in a low voice: "Master Ye, Miss Gu, there is a regular customer in the store, and the Chinese detective Li Yalin is also here. You two should not leave for now.
Go down."
Ye Chen hurriedly asked: "Uncle Zhong, Li Yalin didn't recognize you, did he?"
"No." Chen Zhaozhong said: "My appearance that day was too different from usual. Besides, we only met each other that day, so it might be difficult for him to think of me. And I just tested it deliberately, and he really didn't recognize me, so he probably didn't recognize me.
fine."
"That's good." Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked curiously: "Uncle Zhong, do you know the middle-aged man who came with Li Yalin?"
Chen Zhaozhong said: "I have known him for a long time, and he has always been a regular customer of the store. However, I really don't know his identity very well. He never tells me, and I never ask questions."
As he spoke, he added: "But I guess his status must be very prominent and he should be a person with a very good background."
Immediately afterwards, Chen Zhaozhong asked Ye Chen: "Master Ye, do you know that person?"
Ye Chen hesitated for a moment and decided not to tell Chen Zhaozhong for the time being. After all, his uncle was downstairs. If Chen Zhaozhong was too shocked when he heard about it, something might be revealed.
So, he smiled and said to Chen Zhaozhong: "I don't know him either. I just asked casually. Uncle Zhong, please go down and do your work first. Don't worry about us. Just ask the waiter to bring us food later."
Chen Zhaozhong waved his hands: "How can I? I will bring the other dishes to you when they are ready. You can eat first."
At this time, An Chongqiu and Li Yalin had also drank.
In order to prevent Li Yalin from remembering him, Chen Zhaozhong asked the waiter to serve them some food and drinks first. Li Yalin was not in a good state and indeed found no clues.
After the two exchanged cups, An Chongqiu put down his chopsticks and asked Li Yalin: "How is your case? Is there any progress?"
Li Yalin shook his head, then looked at his surroundings, then at Chen Zhaozhong and the restaurant waiter who were busy inside. After making sure that they could not hear him, he said in annoyance: "To tell you the truth, the Fei family is really inferior to the previous generation."
Yiyi, when I went to the Fei family, I had already made my words so clear, but they still kicked me out. I really have nothing to say."
An Chongqiu sighed: "This may be what people often call the authorities who are obsessed with it."
Li Yalin sighed: "Hey! I originally thought that after the Fei family realized the crisis, they could cooperate with us, but it turned out that I was asking for trouble. I see that it has not been long since the 48 hours since the kidnapper's statement. This case
There is a high probability that the case will not be solved."
An Chongqiu said: "It is true that the person may not come back, but I think the case can still be solved, even if it cannot be solved in three to five days, if we fight for three to five months, three to five years, the truth will always come to light.
"
Li Yalin smiled bitterly and said: "I will retire soon. If it really takes three to five years to get to the bottom of this case, then I will not be the one to figure it out. When the time comes, I will retire with such an unsolved case."
The little reputation I have worked hard for in the past half of my life is gone."
An Chongqiu smiled and said: "I thought you, Li Yalin, were open-minded by nature and didn't care about this so-called false reputation."
Li Yalin spread his hands and laughed at himself: "Look, I've been around for most of my life. What else do I have left besides these false reputations? If even this false reputation is gone, then all that's left is what the federal government gave me.
