"ah!"
Mu Yu was so frightened that he shivered.
Qin Jinhuan was not surprised, but immediately grabbed Mu Yu's hand to comfort him, and swept towards the direction of the screams with a sullen face.
"I'm sorry, young lady, for scaring you." Huang Bo squeezed the arm of a man in work clothes and apologized to Mu Yu in a hurry.
The man in work clothes leaned towards Huang Bo with a painful look on his face, shouting "ouch" repeatedly.
"What's going on?" Mu Yu, who had calmed down slightly, stood up and asked.
"This person intends to do evil to you! He..."
"No, no, no! You misunderstood! Misunderstood!" The man in work clothes explained loudly in panic, "How dare I have bad intentions towards my comrade, the forensic doctor! I just wanted to say hello to her."
Huang Bo's eyes widened, and he raised the sharp knife in his other hand and scolded: "You use this to greet our young mistress?"
The man in overalls looked at Huang Bo with tears in his eyes: "I, I was so excited that I forgot to put down the knife for a moment. That is the knife I use to cut cooked food, not to hurt people."
At this time, a woman also wearing work clothes ran over and cried at the top of her lungs: "Brothers, please don't get angry. You have misunderstood my old man. He has been using this meat-cutting knife for more than ten years and has never hurt anyone. He's only cut meat, please trust him and don't hurt him."
Mu Yu asked the man in overalls with some surprise: "Do you know me?"
"We know you!" The man in overalls covered his painful arm with one hand while nodding his head like a chicken pecking at rice. "I saw you the night Yang Weiping had his car accident. I know you are a very powerful forensic doctor. I admire you very much. No. I was so excited when I thought that you would come to my restaurant for barbecue today. I wanted to tell you that your barbecue tonight was free, but I didn't expect that there would be such a misunderstanding. I really had no intention of hurting you. ah!"
"You are a good forensic doctor who eliminates harm for the people. How could my old man harm you? We don't respect you enough." The woman in overalls defended with tears and runny noses.
"You remembered her after seeing her once that night?" Qin Jinhuan obviously didn't believe what these two people said.
"This forensic comrade is so good-looking, even better-looking than a movie star, and so good at solving crimes. It's hard not to remember her after just one glance!"
"Yeah, she left such a deep impression on us! After she left that night, people in our first store discussed it for a long time. Do you think so?" The woman in work clothes turned to the group of people behind her who were wearing the same work clothes as her. Ask questions.
"Yes, yes! We discussed it."
"We also know that she is the young mistress of the Qin family."
"Also knowing that she was a very independent, very thoughtful woman."
"She is also very capable, and her ability to dissect and solve crimes is top-notch."
"I also know that Mr. Qin loves her very much."
"Also know..."
The group of people at the back were all talking.
Although you and I were quarreling a lot, Qin Jinhuan still heard these words of praise for Mu Yu. His gloomy face slowly softened, and when he turned to look at Mu Yu, he even had a hint of emotion. smile.
Mu Yu didn't pay attention to his eyes or take everyone's compliments to heart, but seriously asked the identity of the man in overalls.
"I
It’s Chen Yisheng, the owner of this barbecue restaurant, and this is my wife, Wan Nanxiu. Ever since Xiangyun Anju Community was built, my husband and I have been opening a barbecue restaurant here for almost a year. If you don’t believe me, you can ask all the customers here, they are all old customers of my shop... "
Before he finished speaking, someone loudly testified for him: "He is indeed the boss here. He usually treats us kindly. It must be a misunderstanding today."
Seeing that Mu Yu remained silent, Chen Yisheng immediately shouted to Wan Nanxiu at the top of his lungs: "Old lady, go and get my ID card and household registration book to prove my identity."
"Okay, I'll go right away..."
"No need. I believe you." Mu Yu signaled Wan Nanxiu not to get those two things.
"Thank you, thank you." Chen Yisheng wanted to step forward to thank Mu Yu, but was stopped by Huang Bo and quickly took a step back. He explained to Huang Bo with a smile, "Don't even ask me to lend you a thousand guts. I don't dare to harm the Qin family." Man, even if I had the guts, if I wanted to harm her, I wouldn't have to go forward with a knife, right? If she wanted to eat barbecue, I could just put poison in the barbecue... "
"How dare you!" Huang Bo scolded.
"Don't you dare!" Chen Yisheng shrank his head in fear and waved his hands wildly, "I was just using an analogy to show that I won't harm anyone."
"Keep your voice down." Mu Yu motioned to Huang Bo to step back and apologized to Chen Yisheng and his wife with a smile, "I'm sorry, they were too loud and scared you."
"Don't blame them, don't blame them, blame me, blame me for being too excited to see you." Chen Yisheng smiled with a flattering look, "You just eat today, the store promises not to charge a penny."
"That won't work. We can't eat without charging money." Mu Yu refused.
"You are able to come here because you think highly of my shop. Later, I can show off to my neighbors that Mr. Qin and Mrs. Qin have visited my shop. There is nothing that makes me more proud than this."
"That's a strong statement." Chen Yisheng's words made Mu Yu feel a little embarrassed. Seeing that all the customers around were looking at her as if they were celebrities, she became even more embarrassed. She immediately waved her hand, signaling Chen Yisheng to leave her alone, "Boss, Stop talking and get down to business."
"Hey! Okay, I will barbecue for you myself." After Mu Yu and Qin Jinhuan sat down, Chen Yisheng bowed and motioned for everyone in the store to go to work.
Mu Yu saw Weng Yun follow Chen Yisheng into the back kitchen. Knowing that they were still worried about Chen Yisheng, he did not dissuade him and let him go. Although she knew that Huang Bo and others should be so vigilant, she still couldn't help but want to remind Huang Bo in a low voice not to be too arrogant. Just as she was about to speak, she found that Huang Bo's eyes were staring at the table next to her, and she suddenly looked suspiciously. Turn around.
There was an old man in his sixties sitting at the next table.
The old man also shrank his neck and stood motionless next to the table, with panic written on his face. When he found Mu Yu looking at him, he immediately became energetic and weakly shouted "Yubao".
Mu Yu, who had not heard this nickname for a long time, looked happy: "Uncle Biao? Why are you here?"
"I..." The old man, whom Mu Yu called Biao Bo, wanted to stand up, but when he saw Huang Bo, he immediately retracted his seat.
"This is my old neighbor." When Mu Yu spoke, he took the initiative to step forward, sit down next to Uncle Biao, and said with a smile, "Uncle Biao, it's been a long time no see. I didn't expect you to have barbecue too?"
Probably because Mu Yu was around, Biao Bo felt a sense of security, and he looked very relaxed. He smiled and shook his head: "This store is not
They only sell barbecue, but they also sell all kinds of late-night snacks, such as noodles, dumplings, wontons, steamed buns, and porridge. Barbecue is very hot, and I don't like the smell of the natural powder, so I don't eat barbecue. It's cold, so I come to eat hot noodle soup. "
Mu Yu smiled and joked: "Are you still eating noodle soup so late? Aren't you afraid that you will be too full to sleep?"
"I just got up, I didn't go to bed so soon." Uncle Biao pointed forward, "There is a supermarket not far from the barbecue restaurant. I found a job there, which was to go up and down the supermarket after it closed. I mopped the floor, checked to see if there were any messed up items, and helped straighten them out. I slept in the supermarket for the rest of the night, and got up at seven in the morning to open the door. The work was not heavy, but it took a lot of time, and the weather was like this. It’s cold and I don’t have the energy to work if I don’t eat well, so I come here to eat something before going to the supermarket.”
"That's very hard, Uncle Biao."
Uncle Biao laughed: "It's the first day today, how can we say it's hard work?"
"Old man, are you taking over the job from that boy Zhou Sheng?" Chen Yisheng came over with a tray. He was very talkative and immediately picked up after hearing these words.
"Who is Zhou Sheng?" Biao Bo looked at him with doubt on his face.
"That's the guy who was keeping vigil at the supermarket before. I didn't expect that guy to quit his job in the supermarket without saying a word. He still owes me six bowls of noodles! A bowl of noodles costs seven yuan, which is forty yuan!"
"Sixty-seven and forty-two, it should be forty-two yuan, right? You are still in business, how can this be wrong?" Biaobo teased with a smile.
"He is a regular customer of my store and got a two-dollar discount."
"Oh, that's it. He owes you money. You ask the supermarket owner for his phone number and call him to collect the debt."
"What the hell, his cell phone is turned off and all the photos are gone." As if Zhou Sheng owed a lot of money, Chen Yisheng looked angry when he mentioned him.
These words caught Mu Yu's attention, and he immediately grabbed the boss who turned to go back to the kitchen and asked casually: "Who is this Zhou Sheng you are talking about?"
"He works as a storekeeper at the Furong Supermarket in front of me. He comes to my store to eat noodles before twelve o'clock every night. After eating the noodles, he goes to the supermarket to work. This guy doesn't talk much and seems to be quite honest. He said that he eats noodles every day. They come to my place to eat noodles at night and let me get a discount. I don't think it's troublesome to give change, and in order to retain customers, I let him pay for it every six days, which is 40 yuan a time. He originally got a 2 yuan discount the night before. You should have paid with me, but because Yang Weiping had a car accident, I ran to see the excitement in the middle of the night. When I came back, Zhou Sheng had already left. I planned to check with him last night, but I didn't expect that he didn't come last night. When I asked, I found out that he had resigned. If I had known this, I shouldn't have gone out to watch the show the night before. I should have asked him to settle the bill for me sincerely. , This guy cheated on me like this. It’s so unethical. He’s really not a good person.” After returning to the kitchen to take a breath, Chen Yisheng came out and became eloquent again.
The time of "twelve o'clock every night" made Mu Yu suspicious and asked Chen Yisheng about the location of the supermarket where Zhou Sheng worked.
"Here! It's over there." Chen Yisheng pointed.
When Mu Yu turned around to see the location of the supermarket, his eyes suddenly froze.
That supermarket is opposite the barbecue restaurant! Across the road from the barbecue restaurant.
The roadside between the two stores is where Yang Weiping had a car accident.
Could it be...
