Chapter 667: Fighting for reputation without steaming steamed buns
While Du Fei poured wine for Dad Zhu, he chuckled and said, "Dad, you are still worried about this little thing about me!"
Dad Zhu said, "You don't have to belittle yourself. There is nothing trivial about '629'. I met your Uncle Nie at a meeting yesterday and he even asked about you."
Du Fei was stunned for a moment.
Dad Zhu saw his expression and said with a smile, "You are considered a celebrity now~"
At this time, Zhu Ting came out of the kitchen carrying the second pot of dumplings and heard the second half of the sentence "Dad, what celebrity are you talking about?"
Dad Zhu smiled and said, "Speaking of your Xiaofei, your Uncle Nie asked him yesterday."
Zhu Ting put down the plate and looked at Du Fei, "Just him?"
Due to this interruption, Du Fei didn't say anything about the case.
When the second pot of dumplings was served, Zhu Ma and Zhu Ting also took off their aprons.
Du Fei quickly stood up and pulled a chair for his mother-in-law to sit down.
It was the first time that Zhu's mother enjoyed this treatment, and she couldn't help but smile with joy.
Zhu Ting pouted and sat down by herself.
Wait for Du Fei to come back and pinch him secretly.
Du Fei just pretended that he didn't feel anything, but quickly picked up a dumpling for her with chopsticks...
After finishing the meal, Du Fei, Zhang Luo and Zhu Ting picked up the table and washed the dishes together.
But Dad Zhu stopped him, "Let Xiaoting do it~ Come on, go to the study and have a cup of tea with me."
Du Fei had no choice but to smile mischievously at Zhu Ting.
That means, you see, it’s not me who won’t help! It’s your father who doesn’t allow it!
In exchange for a look from Zhu Ting, she followed her into the study.
In the study, Du Fei consciously walked to the cupboard where the tea was kept, opened the door and asked, "Dad, what kind of tea would you like to drink?"
Dad Zhu sat down on the sofa and said, "Drink some tea today. There is Pu'er under the tea brick...it's the second compartment."
Du Fei knelt down and opened a small drawer inside, and took out a Pu'er tea brick.
Dad Zhu said again, "The tea needle is on the side. Have you ever tasted this kind of tea brick?"
Although Du Fei has never drank Pu'er tea, he has a lot of messy knowledge before traveling through time.
But sometimes I have to hide my clumsiness, reach out and take out a metal awl from the grid where the tea bricks are placed, and turn around and say, "Dad, I have never drank this before, please teach me." Dad Zhu took the tea brick and tea needle, used the tea needle to open the wrapping paper of the tea brick, and spread it out on the coffee table.
After looking at the tea brick for a while, I inserted the tea needle along the side and gently pried it up twice.
Then insert the tea needle a second time along the gap that was raised just now.
This time I just pried off a large piece and put it in a tea cup.
While taking the hot water from the thermos bottle to wash the tea, Du Fei went to the kitchen to get freshly boiled water.
The tea brick must be made of freshly boiled hot water to bring out the aroma of the tea.
By the time Du Fei came back with hot water, Zhu's father had already finished washing the tea for the second time.
Then pour boiling water over it... well, Du Fei didn't notice any difference after drinking it.
Dad Zhu drank it with gusto.
He took a tea cup and poured the tea into two small cups. After drinking two cups in succession, he asked Du Fei how he felt.
Although Du Fei couldn't drink anything, he still knew how to praise "good tea".
Father Zhu curled his lips, seeing that his son-in-law was not being careful with his words, so he did not find fault with him.
……………………
After Zhu's father finished speaking, he looked at Du Fei, "You have some insights in this area. What do you think about this matter?"
Du Fei picked up the teacup, thought about it, took a sip and said, "Dad, it's a good idea, but I think... don't expect any results."
Dad Zhu said calmly, "Well, go on."
……………………
Dad Zhu nodded.
……………………
In the evening, I came out of Zhu Ting's house.
Du Fei was still thinking about the conversation he had with Dad Zhu just now.
I feel very sad in my heart. Rights seem wonderful, but they are actually a bitter cup of wine.
The Analects of Confucius says that it is difficult to be a king, and it is not easy to be a minister. If you know that it is difficult to be a king, can you not make a country prosperous with just one word?
Even a tough guy like Emperor Yongzheng once lamented, "It's hard to be an emperor."
That kind of pressure!
Du Fei just thought about it,
They all felt their scalps were numb.
Two days later, February 4th was the beginning of spring.
Although the entire project team went all out to carry out peripheral investigations, they still could not find the real Mr. Luo hiding in the dark.
This made Du Fei begin to waver.
There are only five days left until New Year’s Eve on the 8th.
Do we really want to postpone this case until later this year?
Du Fei began to consider whether to attack Zhang Xiaoqin directly.
The reason why Zhang Xiaoqin was not touched before was because Du Fei felt that her value was greater. After catching Mr. Luo, he still hoped to follow the clues and find the mysterious Mr. 'x'.
But now it seems that Zhang Xiaoqin's value has been somewhat overestimated.
At present, she is not qualified to contact Mr. Luo or Mr. ‘x’ directly.
The only people she came into contact with were relatively high-level tool people like Jin Mingjuan.
So, birds of a feather flock together, and people flock together.
It shows that Zhang Xiaoqin is also this kind of tool person, but her level should be higher than Jin Mingjuan.
It seems impossible to expect her to be able to find the mysterious Mr.
But regarding Mr. Luo, Du Fei believed that she must know something.
The question now is back to ‘to arrest or not to arrest’.
If you want to catch it, you have to be quick!
Du Fei estimated that once something happens to Zhang Xiaoqin, Mr. 'x' will get the news soon.
In case he has other contact information with Mr. Luo.
However, Zhang Xiaoqin's side did not make rapid progress, and in the end no one on either side caught it, so they were left alone.
But in this matter, no one can help Du Fei make up his mind, he must make his own decision.
After careful consideration, Du Fei finally made a decision - catch him!
If Du Fei had been transferred to the official position, he might be more patient and take a longer view.
But on the day of the Chinese New Year, when I was talking to Dad Zhu in the study room.
Dad Zhu revealed that their temporary task force would be disbanded after the Chinese New Year.
Du Fei didn't know exactly what happened. But one thing is for sure, we can’t delay it any longer!
I have been working on the task force for so long and devoted so much time and energy.
It looks like someone is coming out to pick peaches. Who would be willing to do this!
Du Fei simply refused to do anything and decided to arrest Zhang Xiaoqin on the afternoon of the 4th when he was leaving get off work.
Specifically avoiding residences and units is to delay the time for the enemy to detect you.
There were no mobile phones in this era, so information transmission was slow.
Even if Zhang Xiaoqin plays the role of 'insurance', the enemy cannot keep an eye on her 24 hours a day.
Usually I only stay on both sides, either at work or at home.
If you are at work, you will only find out when Zhang Xiaoqin fails to go to work the next day.
Even at home, Zhang Xiaoqin would get off work late due to some circumstances. She would not be alert until at least midnight when she had not come back.
Afternoon, the office of the task force.
When Du Fei announced that he was going to arrest people, everyone's spirits were lifted.
These past few days have been a bit frustrating, knowing that the enemy is there, but there is no way to capture him.
At this moment, when they heard that someone was going to be arrested, everyone was gearing up.
Later, he discovered that the person Du Fei wanted to arrest was not Jin Mingjuan, whom he had targeted before.
But another woman who didn't come into sight at all.
But no one said much.
Du Fei specifically warned, "Comrades, the person arrested this time is very important. I hope everyone will give 100% of their energy. In addition..."
Having said this, Du Fei paused, glanced around the crowd, and said in a deep voice, "I have received the news that our task force will be disbanded after the Chinese New Year."
As soon as these words were spoken, it was like dropping a bombshell!
The dozen or so people present were all shocked. Only Wang Shenjun's face remained normal, but his eyes dimmed.
Apparently, Chu Hongjun had heard some rumors in advance.
But there was nothing he could do about this kind of thing.
Du Fei then said, "If we don't steam the steamed buns, let's fight for peace and settle the case before the end of the year!"
