Surprise Hotel
Chapter VI Dancing Girl
"Suddenly I remembered that the newspaper had an interview task with the new detective of the patrol house. I want to make an appointment with you to talk. I don't know what you think?" Xian Nuo's answer was neither humble nor overbearing.
"Well..." Lu Xing blinked, "No time!"
In the next few seconds, he saw that the expression on Xianuo's face became visibly gloomy.
"Okay, then wait for your convenience." Xia Nuoqiang held up a smile.
"Relax, when needed, I will take the initiative to call someone to find you." Lu Xing looked at Xia Nuo playfully, "After all, you are the most critical witness."
After speaking, he left with Patrol Lao Li, and the two went straight to Chunhua Building.
"The detective's trick is good, you are a master of love!" Lao Li still didn't forget to flatter on the road.
"You want to catch it!" Lu Xing was embarrassed, "Wait, don't you really think I have anything wrong with that woman?"
"Seven emotions and six desires are the true nature of a man, the inspector's true temperament, don't need to conceal it!" Old Li Fang smiled.
Lu Xing was speechless.This guy is really an expert at flattering, no wonder he's in the patrol room.If his detective ability is half as good as flattering, this case probably won't be so difficult to investigate.
Of course, it is impossible for him to place most of his hopes on this group of silly bags. It is his own calamity to stray into this world and he has to solve it himself.
The tram dinged past the place, overshadowing the swear word that Lu Xing blurted out.
The front of the field of vision is like a prelude, and the bustling and lively old-time street scene is full of eyes.
Chunhua Building is not far ahead, with a bright sign.
The patrol Lao Li greeted the restaurant manager in a familiar manner, and a box was vacated in a hard-to-find Chunhua building.
The signature dishes are like one plate, and the table is quickly filled.Xia Nuo did not lie, the dishes here are superb.
Lao Li asked for a pot of wine, but Lu Xing did not drink it.He must stay awake now and reserve enough energy to deal with the old tavern case.
"Old Li, have you ever encountered such a case before?" Lu Xing asked casually while eating the food.
Lao Li swallowed a sip of the strong drink, frowned and said, "You said, if it is the past, the two guys may be convicted of jointly killing people! No matter what grievances are in the process or not, they will have a fight. All pleaded guilty."
"But this case is obviously full of doubts." Lu Xing put down his chopsticks.
"Inspector, there is one thing, I don't know if I should tell you or not." Old Li looked hesitant.
"Since you ask like this, it means you know something inside. Say it!"
Old Li leaned close for a few minutes mysteriously, lowering his voice, "It is Paramount dancer Xu Huizhen who died. She is famous for her style. I don't know how many men were seduced by her. Those who died of illness in their hometown. Tavernkeeper, once had a love-hate relationship with Xu Huizhen..."
Lu Xing smelled a hint of gossip, and his eyes lit up instantly, "How about love, hatred, and hatred?"
"It is said that the tavern owner fell in love with Xu Huizhen and spent a lot of money to redeem her, wanting to get her out of the stormy place and return home to live a stable life with him. How can I know that Xu Huizhen has long since fallen into the drunken gold fan on the Bund, and a big man next to him The rich man finally lost him. Later, the tavern owner returned home in frustration and died in his hometown. As for Xu Huizhen, the rich man around him changed one after another, and finally died tragically.” Patrol Old Li paused, “I There is a bold idea. If the gangsters and the workers did not kill, it is very likely that the tavernkeeper’s soul is killing him..."
Lu Xing almost choked out a sip of tea, "You are so bold to make a conclusion, are you afraid that Xu Huizhen will come to you to claim your life?"
"I have nothing to do with her..." Lao Li drank a glass of wine, and the glass made a crisp sound when it fell on the table. "But I have a hunch that this case must be love murder!"
Lu Xing wiped the letter suspiciously.
After drinking and eating, Lao Li asked Lu Xing, "Inspector, what are your plans next? How do you plan to investigate this case?"
"No hurry, wait." Lu Xing took the teapot leisurely and filled the cup with hot tea.
Wait?Lao Li was very puzzled about Lu Xing's actions, but he did not dare to talk more.The inspector said to wait, then just wait. After all, he didn't have any good ideas.
The two of them sat in Chunhua Building until night fell, and the Bund began to show their lanterns.
Old Li thought it was the new detective who liked the food at Chunhua Building, but he didn't eat enough, so he planned to have another meal.At this moment, Lu Xing suddenly patted his butt and got up, "Go, change a place to have fun."
"Ah? Where are you going?" Lao Li followed up in confusion.
The two walked out of the gate of Chunhua Building, Lu Xing raised his hand and pointed to the depths of the neon, the gorgeous sign fell into focus.
Paramount.
Known as the happiest place in the "Shili Foreign Market", the paradise on earth.
"Detective, Inspector..." Patrol Lao Li showed a sorrowful expression, "I can't afford this place!"
"Isn't it okay to keep the patrol house account?" Lu Xing asked.
"Inspector, you can be said to be the first person to pick up girls with public money! No matter the trivial matter, you will be a big man in the future!"
"I'm here to investigate the case!" Lu Xing was furious.
Coveting young women, accepting bribes, visiting the dance hall with public funds... If this is Lu Xing’s first impression of Lao Li, then he can’t wait to put it out...
"The inspector denies himself and serves his duties, and the younger one understands!" Old Li gave a standard ceremony.
Understand the fart!Lu Xing cursed inwardly.
Forget it, what's the use of caring about him, there are more important things to do right now.
Lu Xing looked at the splendidly illuminated door from a distance, faintly feeling that it was not only the peculiar girls who beckoned to him, but also clues to the murder of the double-secret room in the tavern.
This time, just in time for the opening performance of Paramount Song and Dance.In order not to attract too much attention, he and Lao Li switched to casual clothes.
There are active and noble high-class people and the most beautiful girls, men and women embracing each other on the dance floor and shaking their bodies with the music.
From the time he entered the door, Lao Li's eyes never left those long white thighs.Lu Xing didn't care about him, and turned around on his own.To be honest, compared to the nightclubs of the 21st century, here is much more solemn.
Xu Huizhen worked here during his lifetime and met all kinds of people.But there are two kinds of people that she can't seem to reach.One is a poor fool who is in debt, and the other is a worker who is honest and earnest to support his family.
In this way, it is difficult for Tan Xianghe and Liu Zili to intersect with them.
Lu Xing wanted to ask someone to ask about something. It happened that at this time a mature and charming woman in the corner also noticed him, picked up two glasses of wine, and walked towards him step by step.
"Mr. alone? You look unfamiliar, are you not a local?"
