After get off work, everyone came to the restaurant talking and laughing all the way. The celebration banquet was not too luxurious. The dishes were served at a table of 300 yuan. What really made the police happy was that the case was finally solved.
Although there may be a new case tomorrow, today's work has ended perfectly.
While waiting, Xu Xiaodong walked around the table with a handful of paper signs. This is an unwritten rule in the Second Criminal Police Team. Half of the people who win the lottery can drink, and those who don’t get the lottery can’t drink. Drink at most half a bottle of beer. In case everyone is drunk and can't drive back.
Xu Xiaodong came to Chen Shi, patted him on the shoulder, and yelled "Brother Chen" affectionately. Chen Shi waved his hand and said, "I won't smoke anymore. I won't drink tonight. I will be able to draw two more to earn extra money later. "
"Brother Chen, you know too well!"
"Thanks for the compliment."
The dishes were served, and the chatting officers put out their cigarettes and moved their chopsticks eagerly. At this time, Lin Qiupu and Peng Sijue came in. Someone said: "Team Lin is here, let's say a few words!"
"Say what? Eat!" Lin Qiupu said as he walked in.
"Haha, you're welcome."
"I'm hungry. After eating instant noodles for a few days, I can count as seeing meat."
"Do you like the atmosphere in the team?" Lin Dongxue asked Chen Shi.
"Like it, it's lively, everyone gets along very harmoniously."
"You are now a consultant, and you will be regarded as half of the team in the future. Let's be regarded as colleagues."
Speaking of this, Chen Shi took the consultant card out of his pocket, "I haven't agreed yet!"
"My brother has said that the consultant has allowances and transportation subsidies. You can just make some extra money."
"I'm used to being free, and I don't want to be restrained..." Chen Shi removed the cover of the consultant's card, returned the certificate to Lin Dongxue, put the cover in his pocket, "help me return it to your brother."
"What!?" Lin Dongxue couldn't believe it, so he refused.
"It's what you said, to help you cook, you can consider it, but you have to add some money."
"How much? I'm only a third-level superintendent now, and my salary is only a little bit a month."
"How about 80 yuan a day?" Chen Shi asked with a smile.
"A bit tall, let me think about..."
Chen Shi turned his head and found that the food on the table had been mopped up halfway, and said, "Damn, these hungry dogs, hurry up and eat!"
Chen Shi was very uneasy after eating this meal, and police officers came to toast one after another, "Brother Chen, take care of our team in the future!", "Brother Chen will come out. There is no unsolvable case. Come, I will toast you! ", "Brother Chen, you don't want to rent out. It's better to come to the bureau to develop. With your ability, the director will definitely be promoted!"
Chen Shi smiled perfunctorily and was forced to drink a stomach of juice. He couldn't even eat a few mouthfuls of vegetables. Lin Dongxue laughed softly: "Deserve it!"
As soon as Chen Shi looked up, he found that across the table, a pair of cold eyes were watching him, Peng Sijue didn't move his chopsticks at all, just staring at him like this.
So Chen Shi poured a glass of juice and said, "Captain Peng, happy cooperation!"
Peng Sijue was indifferent at first, and the people next to him urged him: "Brother Chen didn't respect anyone, so you respected the captain and gave you a face!", "Yes, yes, this time you can solve the case. You two are great heroes."
Peng Sijue couldn't stand the face, poured half a cup of tea, stood up, and when he touched Chen Shi's cup, he whispered: "I will find out who you are sooner or later!"
Chen Shi was taken aback, then smiled, "Whatever!"
There was a commotion in the crowd. It turned out that Lin Qiupu was drinking too much. He patted the shoulder and said heart-wrenching words when he caught anyone. He was different from the usually cold one, "Lao Li, are you afraid of being scolded by your wife after drinking? Come on, Let’s go!”, “Lao Peng, why do you keep staring at him and not looking at me? I’m going to get angry... Come on, let’s go!”, “Lao Zhang Lao Zhang, please dance.”
Looking at his brother who was dancing ballroom dance with Constable Lao Zhang, Lin Dongxue held his forehead helplessly, "I really don't want to say that I know him!"
Nearby, Xu Xiaodong and a few young police officers were colluding with each other, "If Team Lin wakes up tomorrow, if you ask what he did after getting drunk last night, we will say that he is asleep."
After the celebration banquet, Chen Shi left the hotel with Lin Dongxue and the drunk Lin Qiupu. The first task was to send Lin Qiupu home. On the way, Chen Shi asked, "Why don't you brothers and sisters live together?"
"I told you the reason, I'm afraid you will make a joke. Two years ago, my brother talked about a girlfriend and said that he had already talked about marriage. I moved out without being a light bulb. Every time I asked my brother, he said he was about to get married. At that time, I will invite everyone to have a wedding wine. It took half a year to find out that his girlfriend thought that he would not be with others all day and broke up with him. He actually held on for half a year and lied to us! You said this person , Is it to save face?"
"Haha!" Chen Shi laughed, "Your brother is also pretty cute."
Lin Qiupu, who was sleeping in the back seat, let out a dream, "Don't bully my sister!"
When he came to Lin Qiupu's residence, Chen Shi took Lin Qiupu's shoulders and picked him off. On the way into the community, Lin Qiupu was talking vaguely, Chen Shi was like coaxing a child, and there was nothing to say about him. .
Lin Qiupu's two bedrooms and one living room were bought with provident funds. Bachelors rarely have clean and tidy homes. This is no exception. Lin Dongxue frowns as soon as he enters the house. "Your man's house is like a pigsty."
"Don't include me, at least my house is not so messy."
"Who believe it!"
Put Lin Qiupu on the bed, fed him some water, covered him with a quilt to make him fall asleep, Chen Shi quietly left the bedroom, circled the customer hall, and said, "This house is good. You brothers and sisters can simply live together. You can pay off the mortgage pressure together. It’s a bit smaller."
"Live together? Then you can still see me?"
"When did Miss Lin become so considerate?"
"I'm not a big lady... I thought about it, why don't I do it at 60 yuan a day?"
"75!"
Lin Dongxue was so angry that she wanted to beat the wall. Chen Shiming sometimes took care of people so much, but she always cares about money. She herself was a little confused, whether this man had a good impression of herself.
"70!" Chen Shi suggested, "you often don't go home for dinner at night, and call me when you need to cook. Maybe it's only ten times a month. It's not expensive!"
Lin Dongxue hugged her hands, wanting to laugh with anger, "I really feel comfortable making money for girls."
"I have worked hard! Of course I feel at ease."
"Huh, take me home!"
After getting on the bus, Lin Dongxue asked again: "Are you short of money? Or is there any patient in the family who needs medical expenses?"
Chen Shi said calmly, "No, I'm more greedy for money."
"Oh... I'm still thinking, if you need money urgently, I will treat it as a sponsor and you can add more money."
"Good intentions." Chen Shi smiled, "Running the rental and adding some of my savings, my life is quite comfortable."
"Then you are so stingy?"
At this time, a sentence floated on the radio, "... Congratulations to the lottery friend with the phone's end number 0848 for winning a grand prize of 20 million yuan!"
