It turned out that the Ruyang Key Case Investigation Unit had made a bet on whether or not Zhao Yu would dare to accept Miao Ying's invitation to eat with them.
In the end, other than the female detective with glasses, everyone else thought that Zhao Yu was afraid of Miao Ying and would definitely not dare to go.
But the truth surprised them. Zhao Yu did not take the normal route and agreed without hesitation.
Miao Ying also lost the bet, but since she had already said it, she had no choice but to bring Zhao Yu to Guan Haitun's Big Pot Fish Stew.
Actually, this bet seemed like a joke, but it was all arranged by Miao Ying. Because Zhao Yu was not only an official collaborator, but he had also played a key role in Jian Wenli's murder case. Whether it was for official or personal reasons, they had to show some respect! Otherwise, it would be very rude if word got out.
But on the other hand, Zhao Yu was really annoying! He had once caused a scene in the Ruyang Key Case Investigation Unit and made them lose face. Wouldn't it be annoying to bring such a person to eat?! Also, she had said before that she would never treat him to a meal!
Therefore, Miao Ying came up with the idea of making a bet. She wanted Zhao Yu to back off, which meant that she had already done her duty as a host. If word got out, she could only blame Zhao Yu for not knowing how to appreciate her kindness.
However, Miao Ying really underestimated Zhao Yu's character. This guy actually agreed to it without hesitation!
Since she had invited the god of plagues, she could only endure it silently! It was just like the old saying, "It's easy to invite a god in, but hard to send him away!"
The detectives were all afraid of Zhao Yu's temper, so Miao Ying could only let Zhao Yu get in her car.
Since it was already after work, Miao Ying took off her police uniform and changed into a casual blue cardigan, a pair of jeans, and white sneakers.
Although the clothes were simple, Zhao Yu, who knew a thing or two about fashion, could tell that the clothes were all expensive international brands!
"Oh?!
Who would have thought that Miao Renfeng would be so fashionable? Why hadn't he noticed before? "
The sky was originally dark, but Zhao Yu suddenly saw a dazzling golden light in front of him. It was so beautiful that his eyes almost popped out! The devilish Miao Renfeng was so beautiful!
But this was just the appetizer. When Zhao Yu followed Miao Ying to her car, he was so surprised that he stuck out his tongue.
Miao Ying's car was a light blue Volkswagen Phaeton!
Zhao Yu had been involved in some smuggling business before, so he was quite familiar with cars. Before entering the car, he had already recognized that it was the latest Phaeton model that had just been launched this year. It was priced at least 2 million!
Heavens!
Zhao Yu was stunned. He never would have thought that Miao Ying could afford such a car. He couldn't help but be suspicious. What was Miao Renfeng's background? Not only was she a police captain at such a young age, but she also drove such a valuable car?
This woman … is not normal!
The car started and went straight to the restaurant.
In the car, Zhao Yu wanted to find a topic to ask about Miao Ying's situation. Why was she so rich? How old is she? Does she have a boyfriend?
However, Miao Ying only seemed to be interested in one topic. It was the Mianling Kidnapping Case that had just been reopened because of the new clues!
Miao Ying said that the impact of this case was a hundred times greater than the Exchange Murder Case that they had solved! Once the investigation was reopened, it would definitely cause a huge uproar!
"Police Officer Zhao, have you ever thought about who those corpses that were dug out from the mine belonged to?" Miao Ying asked.
Zhao Yu shook his head and said honestly, "Sis, I really didn't do this case! Twenty-six years ago, I wasn't even in my mother's womb! "
Miao Ying seemed to have gotten used to Zhao Yu's bullsh * t. She continued nonchalantly, "It's been more than ten hours since the corpses were sent to your police station for evidence. Even if the work wasn't done, there should have been some news, right? But, why hasn't there been any news from your side? "
Miao Ying's words seemed to have hit the nail on the head.
Zhao Yu thought about it carefully. It was true. Even if they had not found all five corpses, one or two should have been enough, right? But why was there no news yet?
Since returning from the mining area, only Team Leader Qu Ping had sent people to investigate the ownership of the mine. She wanted to know who was in charge of the mine where the corpses were found, and when it collapsed.
But other than that, there was no other news from the police station. It felt as if the news had been blocked!
"More than ten TV stations and hundreds of reporters gathered at the police station. It was a huge event that attracted the attention of the whole city!" Miao Ying said mysteriously, "Even in the middle of the night, there would be a press conference! But, there was no news from the police station. They kept it a secret. What do you mean? "
"What do you mean?" Zhao Yu asked.
"Just wait and see!" Miao Ying's gaze suddenly became deep. "Your forensics department must have found something powerful! Now, even the higher-ups can't make up their minds! "
"What?!
Something powerful?
What? "
Zhao Yu had goosebumps from Miao Ying's words. He thought to himself, "Corpses are just corpses! What kind of powerful thing can they find? "
"No matter what, this big case is a double-edged sword!" Miao Ying sighed. "If it's taken care of, it'll be a treasure for your branch. But if it's not taken care of, it'll be no different from a powerful bomb!!"
Without Miao Ying's reminder, Zhao Yu naturally knew how big the impact of this case was. But, the situation was still unclear. Without instructions from the higher-ups, there was no point in panicking!
So, it was better to enjoy the big pot of fish stew and wait!
Who would have thought that the big pot of fish stew would be in a farmhouse in Haiguan Town! As the saying goes, good wine needs no dark alley. When Zhao Yu and Miao Ying arrived, the front yard was already filled with cars and people.
There were barbecue skewers outside. If the fish stew was not enough, they could order some barbecue skewers to liven things up. The place was smoky and noisy, like a street food stall.
Zhao Yu knew that since the Ruyang Key Case Investigation Unit had come all the way here to eat, the fish stew here must be second to none.
Sure enough, Miao Ying brought a group of police detectives to a private room. When pots of different kinds of fish stew were served, the aroma filled the air and made people salivate. The detectives were also starving. They clinked their glasses symbolically and began to eat heartily. The fish was delicious, and Zhao Yu was enjoying it.
As there were many people driving, there were not many people drinking at the table. Most of them were drinking soft drinks. Because there were not many people drinking, and with Zhao Yu, the god of plague, the atmosphere was a bit depressing.
Perhaps to lift the mood, when everyone was almost done eating, Miao Ying suddenly raised her drink and toasted Zhao Yu. She even thanked him for his important contribution to Jian Wenli's case, and praised him for being meticulous and quick-witted. She said that he was a good detective material and had a bright future.
Zhao Yu was a bit surprised. He did not expect Miao Renfeng to be so polite to him. In order to show his sincerity, Zhao Yu also started to praise Miao Ying. He said that Captain Miao was young and promising, hardworking, and was also a bright pearl in the Qinshan police force!
Miao Ying did not expect Zhao Yu to be so good at flattery. She praised Zhao Yu again. She said that other than those good points, Zhao Yu was brave, accurate, and well-versed in catching criminals!
Zhao Yu also did not want to be outdone by Miao Ying. He quickly praised Miao Ying's martial arts skills, and that she was the best of the best in the police force! In order to show that he was good at praising people, Zhao Yu immediately praised Miao Ying for her beauty and valiance.
Miao Ying was not convinced, so she praised Zhao Yu for his elegance, his handsomeness, and his elegance.
The compliments from the two made the police detectives at the table stare at each other. No one could interrupt, and no one could say anything. They were all confused. They were all thinking, "Aren't Miao Ying and Zhao Yu enemies? What's going on? Are they praising each other again?
"Police Officer Zhao is loved by everyone!" Miao Ying hit the table and said to the detectives, "Do you know that Zhao Yu is a beautiful woman? When I went to pick Officer Zhao up from his house today, I saw that he has two girlfriends! They're both first-class beauties! Plus, he's very popular with women. There's even a little girl who calls him her godfather! Hehehe … "
Hmm …
This …
…
The police detectives were speechless again. Zhao Yu was a bit surprised. He thought, "Is she praising me? Or is she mocking me? "
"You flatter me!" Zhao Yu did not want to admit defeat, so he quickly praised, "Captain Miao is not only beautiful, but also fashionably dressed, and so f * cking rich! You're wearing branded clothes, and you drive a Volkswagen Phaeton. It's really enviable! "
Zhao Yu purposely used vulgarities in his compliments, which meant, "I'll let you think about it. I am praising you! Or am I "praising" you? "
At that moment, the police detectives were getting more and more confused. Some of the smarter ones had already noticed that something was wrong.
Miao Ying was also slightly stunned. She immediately stood up and said, "That's still not as good as you, Officer Zhao! Officer Zhao has already caught so many criminals, and the reward money is long gone! Oh, right! I also heard that Officer Zhao is an upright and decent person, and even dares to hit a senior officer! Officer Zhao, did you throw a cup at your captain before? You're so brave, so cool! "
Miao Ying's words were rhythmic, and her eyebrows were dancing. It looked like she was praising Zhao Yu, but in fact, she was exposing Zhao Yu's shortcomings! Although the police detectives were confused, they could not help but laugh.
Zhao Yu would not take this lying down. He rolled his eyes and came up with a plan. He immediately stood up and said, "Not at all … Captain Miao is flattering me! When it comes to bravery and cool, I'm not even half as good as Captain Miao! Everyone doesn't know yet, right? Captain Miao and I had a misunderstanding before, and we had a fight in the police academy. Aiyo, I was beaten up so badly by Captain Miao that my head was swollen like a pig!
