"Is the assorted tempura delicious?" Hattori Mina asked after coming out of the restaurant.
"It's really good. I'll come back if I have a chance in the future." Jiang Xinyu turned around and took a look, and the half of his head that poked out of No. 7 Yajian quickly retracted.
Hattori Mina said proudly: "I knew you would like it. Let's order seafood tempura next time!"
“And seafood flavor?”
"There are many flavors, but this restaurant only serves these two."
“What does tempura mean in Japanese?”
"It just means faster."
"It should be a foreign word, right?"
“I heard my dad mention that the word tempura comes from Portuguese.”
A few minutes later, the car stopped in front of Xinman Girls' Middle School.
Jiang Xinyu thought for a while and said, "Mina, there will be a readers' party at Yanjin Newspaper Office tomorrow night. They invited me. Do you want to go?"
"Readers' association? Will it be boring?"
"I don't know. Anyway, I have nothing to do at night, so I just went to relax."
"Then I'll go too!"
"Okay, I'll come find you tomorrow."
"where?"
"Said it was in your school auditorium."
Hattori Mina suddenly understood and said: "No wonder, a group of people came in the morning and said they were going to the auditorium to decorate the venue. I thought it was a school event."
"Go to class."
"See you tomorrow."
"See you tomorrow."
Hattori Mina got out of the car and walked into the school gate, looking back as she walked.
"Mine, tempura!" Jiang Xinyu stood outside the gate and shouted with a smile.
Hattori Mina stopped, turned around and asked, "What?"
"I mean it's so cold, please go faster!"
“Learn now and sell now!”
Hattori Mina smiled and waved, and walked quickly to the classroom.
Jiang Xinyu turned around and glanced around. He saw the man with round glasses following him sitting in a rickshaw, covering one eye with a newspaper, and peeping over here like he was hiding his ears.
Whatever the purpose, this level of tracking is hilarious in itself!
Jiang Xinyu thought for a while, then walked over and said, "Hey, brother..."
The round glasses hurriedly said to the coachman: "Go quickly, go quickly!"
The coachman pulled the car and ran two miles away in one breath. He looked back with round glasses and saw that Jiang Xinyu was not following him, so he felt relieved.
The coachman panted and said, "Sir, where are you going? We've been running all morning."
"Just park the car here! I'm so long-winded, but I'm not giving you less fare!" Round Glasses paid the fare and muttered to himself.
"I don't mean anything else. I'm really tired today and want to take a rest. I'm sorry."
The round-glasses man waved his hand impatiently and stepped forward. Before he had gone more than ten meters, a car drove over and braked suddenly in front of him.
Jiang Xinyu pushed the door open and got out of the car, came to Yuanyan and said, "What's your last name?"
"Forgive me your surname...why should I tell you, we don't know each other!" Round Glasses said calmly.
"Do you know who I am?"
"I'm sorry, I'm not interested in knowing. I have other things to do, please get out of the way!"
Jiang Xinyu smiled and punched the opponent in the stomach suddenly. The righteous face with round glasses was the color of soybean liver. He squatted on the ground and groaned in pain.
Like dragging a dog to death, Jiang Xinyu dragged the round glasses to the side of the car, reached out to open the rear door, and tried to force him in.
The round glasses felt that the pain in his stomach was not so bad anymore. He held the car door tightly with both hands and shouted: "Help, help!"
Two patrol policemen happened to pass by and immediately ran over and shouted: "Stop it! What's going on?"
Jiang Xinyu turned around and said, "What's going on?"
"Hey, it's Captain Jiang, what are you..."
"Help me get this guy into the car!"
The round glasses were dumbfounded. Only now did he realize that this was some kind of captain. The police were all polite when they saw him. He was obviously not an ordinary nobody.
"What are you looking at? Get in!" The two policemen pushed their round glasses into the car and said to Jiang Xinyu: "Captain Jiang, do you want us to accompany you in the car?"
Jiang Xinyu looked at them and said, "No need. Which police chief are you with?"
"Chief Huang."
"Bring it to Lao Huang for me."
"Don't worry, I will bring it to you!"
Jiang Xinyu got into the car, took out his handcuffs and put his round glasses on his back in the car. With the police's attention, the car sped northward.
"Jiang, Captain Jiang, where are you taking me?" Looking out the car window at the increasingly desolate scene, Round Glasses couldn't help but feel a little panicked.
Jiang Xinyu glanced at the rearview mirror and said, "What's your last name?"
"...The surname is Ren, Ren Junsheng."
"What do you do?"
"What... do nothing, have no career."
"Do you know who I am?"
"I know, you are Captain Jiang."
"Where am I the captain?"
Ren Junsheng was speechless and unable to answer.
"You don't even know who I am, why are you following me?"
"I didn't follow you..."
The car was driving on a stone bridge. Jiang Xinyu stopped the car, turned around and said, "Ren Junsheng, let me tell you now, I am the captain of the detective team. Have you ever heard of the detective team?"
"I've heard of it, I've heard of it." Ren Junsheng nodded repeatedly. As long as he was an adult in Yanjin, there were almost no people in the detective team.
Jiang Xinyu lit a cigarette and said: "So, if you don't tell the truth, I will throw you off the bridge. Life or death depends on your luck!"
Ren Junsheng couldn't help but take a look, and was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. The river under the bridge had dried up and was covered with river pebbles of different shapes. It was at least three meters high from the bridge deck. If he fell, he would be disabled even if he didn't die!
He had already heard about the bad reputation of the detective team, and it was not uncommon to kill a lot of people. Even if someone saw it, who would dare to meddle in such nosy matters!
"Captain Jiang, I am telling the truth, please spare me this time..."
"explain!"
"Yesterday, when I came out from home, I met a man named Mr. Li. He said that as long as I help him track a person, he will give me 100,000 yuan... I have been unemployed for a long time and my money is very tight, so I agreed."
"Why don't you ask him why he follows others?"
"I asked, and he said that person...that is, you, seduced his wife..."
"What does that Mr. Li look like?"
Ren Junsheng described Mr. Li's facial features and appearance. Although the description was not accurate, Jiang Xinyu was basically sure that that person was Ma Peiqu!
What on earth is this guy going to do? If he finds such a fool to follow him, the chance of being discovered is very high. Isn’t this a waste of effort?
Jiang Xinyu thought for a while and said, "Have you received one hundred thousand yuan?"
"He first paid me 10,000 yuan in advance and said it was the rest. When we meet in the evening, I will tell him about today's situation before giving it to me."
"Where will you meet?"
“Wangji Noodle House on Pingliang Road.”
"What time?"
"Six p.m."
"Are you lying to me?"
"Don't dare, don't dare..."
Ren Junsheng did have 10,000 yuan in banknotes. Jiang Xinyu checked his good citizen certificate and said: "Okay, I believe you for now. If you dare to lie to me, I promise to make you look ugly!"
"Don't worry, I guarantee that everything I say is true, and there is not a single lie!"
"I'll tell you what to do next!"
"You say."
"At six o'clock, you go to Pingliang Road to meet Mr. Li as usual. Just tell the truth about what you saw today."
"Understood."
Jiang Xinyu unlocked the handcuffs for him and said, "Go!"
Ren Junsheng bowed and walked forward quickly.
Although I can't figure out Ma Peiqu's true intention, as long as he is killed, even if there are thousands of clever tricks, it will be useless!
