The slender and slender fingers gently rubbed the emerald white jade bong for a moment, then threw it onto the bed.
The woman yawned, got up slowly, and swayed to the washstand.
Turning on the faucet and fiddling lightly, his eyes are lazy and blurred, and his body is like noodles.
There was movement from behind.
The woman sees the visitor in the mirror.
"How did you come?"
She smiled lazily, with a lot of style.
"Just in time, come and help me choose a cheongsam, today..."
Before the words were finished, the expression in the mirror turned to panic!
"What are you doing—"
The screams that were about to come out were immediately blocked in her throat. She struggled and twisted desperately to grab the opponent's hand. Kodan, who was usually well-maintained, was broken by pinching hard, and blood flowed out of the gap, and she couldn't tell whose wound it was.
However, this can only lead to a more vicious response from the other party.
The woman opens her mouth subconsciously!
She couldn't breathe the air she was eager to take in, but instead accelerated the process of her own death.
The face that usually makes a man fascinated by a smile is now contorted and ferocious, the blue veins on his forehead are bulging, and his eyes are turned up a little bit. It was the pajama robe that he had just thrown on the bed.
After the silk robe was bought back last month, she liked it very much and often wore it
The slippers were kicked off, and the body was dragged to the bedroom, leaving two wet marks on the floor with bare feet.
The person who restrained her didn't have the slightest bit of pity and cherish the jade, and seeing that she still had the strength to struggle, she added a little more strength.
For a dying person, life is shortened to minutes.
Gradually, her legs stopped kicking.
Fragrant body slumped on the bed, but Almond's eyes were still wide open, staring straight at the ceiling.
Dead restless.
…
Ya Qi played with the cosmetics on her desk with great interest.
She hesitated for a long time between Shuangmei and Xia Shilian's two brands of vanishing cream, and finally couldn't help but choose the newly bought Xia Shilian.
The mouth of the newly packaged bottle was a bit astringent when she was unscrewed, but the tangy fragrance on her face quickly wiped out the last trace of her reluctance.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Ya Qi's mood also brightened.
For her, it was just an ordinary night among thousands of nights.
But this night, a subtle change took place because of the arrival of a person.
"Yaki, Young Master Ling is here, I want to see you!"
Ya Qi turned her head back quickly, then quickly turned around and grabbed the unopened Dan Qi lipstick that was farthest away from her.
Open it, twist it, and paint it carefully in front of the mirror.
This is a foreign product she recently bought from Yongan Department Store, and she has not been willing to use it for several days.
The big class at the back approached with a smile.
"Are you so happy to hear Ling Shao come over?"
Ya Qi glanced at the mirror: "I see that you are happier than me, and your mouth almost reaches your ears!"
Tai Pan said: "Young Master Ling is handsome, he speaks nicely, and he can coax people. Who doesn't like it? It's a pity that he is a little worse than the real young master, but such a handsome face is enough. I don't know if he will buy it tonight or not. If your street clock is a dozen or twenty years younger, I'd rather post it backwards and go out with him!"
Ya Qi pouted and said nothing, just looking at herself in the mirror.
The flames of the red lips print out a graceful face with delicate makeup.
Ling Shao should find that she is different tonight, right
While speaking, Tai Pan caught a glimpse of the timid young girl beside him.
"What are you doing, go out with me, Ling Shao also brought friends over, just right!"
The young girl's name is Rose, who just applied for the Jade Leng Cui dancer a few days ago.
"Who is Ling Shao? A frequent visitor here?" She asked curiously.
The three walked through the brightly lit porch, with their high heels stepping on the floor to a crisp rhythm.
Ya Qi was not interested in answering, so Tai Pan replied, "Follow me!"
Rose had to sigh, trying to get used to the discomfort caused by high heels.
Her family was relatively well-off, and she was also studying in middle school. A few years ago, her father died of a sudden illness. The family lost a pillar and collapsed overnight. In order to provide for her younger brother to go to school, Rose could only choose to come to work in Feilengcui.
People who have encountered such a situation have seen many dance halls.
In this era, the most indispensable thing is the involuntarily Piaoping.
At least, the income of being a dancer is very good.
Rose's half-Chinese and half-foreign name was also created by the big class after she entered the dance hall, and it was considered a stage name.
On the huge Shanghai beach, Jade Lengcui is naturally incomparable to Paramount, Xianle and Dance Palace, Metropolis, Vienna, etc., but it is also considered a little famous, and it does not refuse to come, and it faces a wider class of guests.
Unlike places like Paramount, the entrants are either rich or expensive, and it is not affordable for ordinary people.
If Rose is willing to work hard, after a month, it will be more than enough for her brother to go to school, and there may be a lot of expenses left over.
Rose soon saw Ling Shao, who was "handsome and talkative" in Taipan's mouth.
The other party was wearing a gray and black western dress, and had the same hairstyle as many young people nowadays, but without oil, it was fluffy and refreshing.
Dressing up is not surprising.
Rose has seen a luxurious boy, and she has also seen a peacock that is more flamboyant.
But for the first time, she knew that if a person is good-looking enough, it doesn't matter what he wears, because he can wear ordinary clothes to look extraordinary.
There are many people in the world who rely on their clothes, and there are very few people who rely on their clothes like Ling Shao.
"Young Master Ling!"
Rose saw Ya Qi flying over like a happy bird, and the high heels felt light under her feet.
There was a lazy smile on Ling Shao's face: "Yaqi, did you use new lipstick? It's even more beautiful than the last time I saw you!"
Ya Qi was surprised and happy: "Have you found it?"
Ling Shao: "I saw it from a long distance, with flaming red lips, and the fragrance arrives before anyone arrives."
Yaqi said happily: "This is the new color of Danqi Lipstick. The whole Shanghai is only available in limited quantities in Yongan Department Store. I asked someone to line up for a long time, and I almost couldn't buy it!"
She walked over and hugged Ling Shao's arm and chatted.
Rose was pushed by the senior class towards the young man next to Ling Shao.
Come to the dance hall just to dance.
Under the melody of the music, Rose was embarrassed and restrained, and accompanied the other party in some clumsy dance steps.
Dancing quickly brought the distance between the two parties. She learned from the young man that Ling Shao's full name was Ling Shu, but he was actually a policeman from the Jiangwan District Police Station. The person dancing with her was Cheng Si, Ling Shu's colleague. and friends.
Cheng Si's appearance is also correct, but with Ling Shu, there is inevitably a contrast between Yuehua and Xinghui.
Rose's gaze couldn't help chasing the figure again with the lights on the dance floor.
Ling Shu danced very well.
The dance steps are brisk and vigorous.
The hair without pomade jumped gently in the movement of the pace.
One by one, like Rose's pounding girlish heart.
She turned her gaze to the corner of the other's eyes.
The streamer pulled out a trace of flying, and instantly exploded the brand marks on the chest, cinnabar peach blossoms, bright and dazzling.
"People are good-looking, but they're different, and there are dancers who tip!"
Cheng Si muttered in his ears.
Rose took a closer look, and sure enough, she saw Ya Qi put a small wrapped handkerchief into Ling Shu's hand.
These days, the dance hall is divided into three, six, nine, and so on, and the guests who go to the dance hall are divided into three classes and nine classes, but no matter how stingy the guests are, they have to open a bottle of wine to the dancer and spend a little tip.
Those who spend a lot of money may even spend a lot of money, take dancing girls out of the street, and even book hotel rooms all year round, buy apartments, and hide their beauty in a golden house.
However, it was the first time that Rose saw a dancer sticking to a guest.
The mood that should have been shocked, but quietly calmed down when he saw Ling Shu.
Rose even thought it was understandable. If it were her, maybe she would also...
A dance is over.
Ya Qi wanted to continue, but Cheng Si let go of Rose's hand and walked towards Ling Shu.
"Look at the bald man over there."
Elbow bumped against Ling Shu's arm, Cheng Si raised his chin and nodded forward.
"how?"
"This bald guy hit him in the morning because the rickshaw driver didn't see the way, and he beat him hard. When he left, he limped. It's very miserable."
Listening to this means you want to piss people off
Ling Shu: "Have you checked?"
Cheng Si smiled: "This person is so arrogant, what background do I think I have. After checking, my uncle was a middle-level police officer in the police corps. The backstage is not as good as you!"
Ling Shu's face sullen: "What kind of backstage can I have? I'm just a little policeman waiting to die, don't tease me."
Cheng Si: "Okay, don't tease you! How about I go over and beat him up later?"
Ling Shu raised his eyebrows and suddenly grinned, "I have a better way."
Huang Bald is very dissatisfied with his dance partner.
He has long been eyeing Yaqi not far away.
Because the other party already had guests around, and he didn't know the origin of the guests, he didn't dare to rush forward.
Everyone knows that Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon in Shanghai, if not careful, will bump into a certain master boy or a foreign comprador. These people are not something that a bald man can provoke.
Looking for an opportunity, Huang Bald grabbed the adaptable student who was delivering wine, stuffed a tip, and asked about the situation of the other two.
After learning that Cheng and Ling were neither high-rollers nor big-hearted, he felt relieved and walked towards each other.
"Your surname, Xiongtai, my surname is Huang, can you get one?"
Huang Baldzi handed over the cigarette casually, and did not hit the smiling person with his hand.
The other party will definitely ask him where he is doing errands, and he will take advantage of the situation to show his uncle, instead of looking at the monk's face, he will see the Buddha's face, this beautiful dancer is going to be fixed tonight.
But what happened next was completely unexpected.
Cheng Si took his cigarette and suddenly let out a sigh.
"Have I seen you somewhere?"
Huang Bald was stunned for a while, then smiled: "No way, I think Xiongtai is very eye-catching."
"I remember, the wanted criminal of the family of five who killed the family last year!"
Cheng Si patted his thigh and pulled Ling Shu's arm, "Come take a look, is the portrait exactly the same as the real person?"
Ling Shu looked up and down, serious and rigorous: "It's really a bit like."
Huang Bald said angrily: "What a mess! My surname is Huang Song, I heard it clearly, it's Song from Songshan, what does it have to do with the wanted criminal? Do you know who my uncle is?"
Cheng Si said seriously: "Even if your uncle is the mayor, it doesn't matter whether you commit a crime or not. We are police officers from the Jiangwan District Police Station. Please come with us. If you find out your innocence, you will be released naturally. already."
After saying that, he grabbed the opponent's wrist, took out the brass handcuffs and handcuffed them.
The yellow bald man was shocked and angry, how could he have thought that he was almost undressed, and the beautiful dancer didn't hook up, but instead put himself in.
"My uncle is Huang Ming. Do you know Huang Ming from the police corps! How dare you arrest people?! Be careful he turns around and evacuates you all. Damn, your dogs are too brave... Ouch!"
Ling Shu kicked his back knee.
The yellow bald man with his teeth and claws fluttered forward and knelt forward, just in time to take the initiative to send his wrist to the door, with a click, the brass handcuffs were in close contact with the skin, Cheng Si grinned at the yellow bald man who raised his head.
"Come on, brother!"
It doesn't matter whether Huang Baldzi's uncle is from the police headquarters or the city government. They tortured people and tossed them away for a long night. If they came up, they would push each other into five. Is it possible that the other party can still care about them
The yellow bald boy would not give in, his body was restrained, his mouth was not clean and he kept scolding.
Ya Qi and Rose were both frightened, and even the big class came to persuade Cheng Si and the others to give some face, not to make trouble here.
Ling Shu directly picked up a piece of bread from the side and shoved it into Huang Bald's cursing mouth.
The world is at peace again.
"He is a suspect now. According to the rules, he has to cooperate with the investigation. The interrogation is clear. You can rest assured that we will not wrong a good person."
After Ling Shu finished speaking to the big class on the dance floor, he said to Cheng Si, "Okay, take someone back first, I'll leave later."
Cheng Si glared at him: "It's not righteous!"
"Miss Yaqi is such a difficult person to date. Can I just say go and leave? Let us get along for a while, right?"
Ling Shu smiled at Ya Qi, and the latter blushed immediately.
Cheng Siya was itchy, leaned forward and lowered his voice: "Santon Dexing Hall, I'll turn around and leave!"
Ling Shu was annoyed: "Are you robbery? One meal, no more!"
Cheng Si: "Two meals, I won't leave no matter how little, I will watch you dance here with the yellow bald boy."
Ling Shu waved his hand like a fly: "Two meals, hurry up!"
Cheng Si smiled and didn't regret not getting along with Rose tonight, contentedly dragged the bald man away.
"Okay, from now on, tonight is our time for each other."
Ling Shu gently reached out to Ya Qi.
"I wonder if Miss Yaqi has Yaxing and I come again?"
"It's an honor." Ya Qi smiled.
But her happiness tonight was not destined to last long.
Halfway through the dance music, a small commotion came from the outside in.
The first to greet them were a few dance hall executives, and soon they turned back, and their faces were not very good-looking, and they had to force a smile and pull the corners of their mouths.
Putting aside the ignorant Rose, someone like Yaqi who has been in the game all year round, can tell it at a glance.
Here comes the big shot.
Not like Huang Bald's bravado, but a big man who really can't be provoked.
Many guests and dancers did not know why, but involuntarily made way for each other, and consciously retreated to both sides.
Walking in the front were two foreign police officers with high noses and deep eyes, commonly known as foreign arrests. At first glance, they came from the concession.
But it was the two people behind him who attracted everyone's attention.
One is a foreigner and the other is a Chinese.
The foreigner was wearing a police uniform and was a high-ranking police officer in the concession.
These days, in Shanghai and even in the whole of China, foreigners belong to the category that cannot be offended.
Wherever there are foreigners, simple things often become complicated.
And the Chinese who walked side by side with him—
The face under the top hat is half-hidden in the interweaving of light and shadow.
Then, he lifted his chin slightly.
The entire face was immediately exposed to the light.
Many people immediately exclaimed in their hearts, but this admiration was quickly deterred by the other party's aura, and they couldn't tell whether the admiration just now was due to their aura or appearance.
Ling Shu and Ya Qi also stopped their dance steps and watched each other walk in their direction through the crowd.
Ya Qi was a little panicked, and began to search her mind for the memory of offending the patrol.
Ling Shu narrowed his eyes slightly.
The bright leather shoes stepped on the plaid floor with an unmatched momentum.
Ya Qi was frightened, but naturally she didn't notice that the eyes of the man in the coat were always on Ling Shu.
Ling Shu suddenly laughed lazily.
"Hey, isn't this Mr. Yue? With your standards, how can you come to such a small place as Feilengcui if you don't go to Paramount and Xianlewu Palace?"
Aki was a little puzzled.
This sentence sounds like the two of them are old acquaintances.
A short distance away, but tit for tat.
Before she could sort it out, she heard the man in the coat speak.
"Du Yuning is dead."
Ling Shu's casual expression changed slightly.
Then the senior police officer next to the man said, "We suspect that the murderer is you."
The author has something to say: Both the protagonists have come out.
