Although Bai Jingfei said so, Zhang Di and his wife obviously did not intend to let him go. They told Bai Jingfei that he wanted to change the subject. It was not until Bai Jingfei reluctantly agreed to bring Gu Xunru over on New Year's Day that they let him go.
By the time Bai Jingfei came out of Zhang Di's house, it was almost nine o'clock in the evening. Bai Jingfei drank a lot of wine on purpose, and he really drank. But he knew that his drinking capacity was the legendary three pounds. So after the two of them drank a whole bottle of wine, he was actually fine, but he had to show off his drunkenness on purpose.
If he walks crookedly like a dragon and jumps like a rainbow, that would be wrong. He would be a bit drunk. Otherwise, Zhang Di and the others would see that he is walking unsteadily, and they would not let him do it emotionally or rationally. Just leave. At the very least, you still need to have concern from your classmates. Although Zhang Di is a traitor, his emotional intelligence is not low. Otherwise, it would be impossible to climb to the position of deputy municipal secretary-general.
Therefore, Bai Jingfei made the other party feel that he was just drunk, but there was no problem walking. At least he could hold Qiao, and he could deliberately pretend to be steady in the aisle.
In this way, Bai Jingfei was walking on the road, strolling on the street as if the smell of alcohol had dissipated. After a while, I arrived at Xinzheng Street, swallowed a few mouthfuls of spit, turned around and entered the Qingyuan Hotel.
It was already nine o'clock at this time, and there were actually not many guests in the hotel. But in restaurants, closing time is always late. Although there weren't many people inside, there were a few tables drinking and bragging.
People who drink tend to get hungry after drinking. After Bai Jingfei came in, he directly ordered a bowl of belly noodles with a side dish, then lit a cigarette and started smoking slowly.
When the shopkeeper at the counter saw him coming in, his heart suddenly moved. Because Bai Jingfei couldn't appear for no reason, he must have come with information.
But the shopkeeper remained calm and continued to do his work unhurriedly. Bai Jingfei didn't pay attention to anyone. He seemed to be really hungry after drinking too much. He started to eat loudly and slurpedly, but he bottomed out after a while.
But just when he was about to finish the bowl of noodles and side dishes, the shopkeeper called over to the shop assistant and said, "I'm going out to buy something. You can watch for a while."
"Okay, shopkeeper." The shopkeeper agreed, and the shopkeeper walked out from behind the counter and walked out of the store.
At this time, Bai Jingfei stuffed some food into his mouth, waved to the waiter, and started to pay. After giving the money, go straight out and walk to the left.
After a while, a cough came from a dark alley nearby. Bai Jingfei naturally turned in. He followed a dark shadow for half a minute and entered a small room.
"Did you find something?" the shopkeeper asked straightforwardly.
Right code? Need not! Because they were in separate contact, and even the Qingyuan Hotel was opened just for Bai Jingfei. Two people know each other, and only each other knows each other's identity. Isn’t it unhealthy to have to read secret codes in secret? Unless there was a tail behind him, Bai Jingfei might make an inconspicuous movement to alert the other party. Otherwise there is really no need.
"There is a situation." Bai Jingfei also directly replied in a low voice: "There is something wrong with the local police station. There is an account that can be corrected from the time clues on the approximate time of the arrival of the two hostages. The reason why I didn't pay attention last time is this There are a lot of accounts, but this afternoon, I found that the Police Department had incurred another incorrect account, and I only discovered the problem after comparing it twice."
The shopkeeper frowned and said, "No... any more accurate information?"
"No." Bai Jingfei said: "That's all I can do to check. But I think it's nine out of ten. Think about it, the reasons for today's account approval are related to last time. But when a car is inspected, the last time it was repaired After that, the worn tires need to be replaced again today. How were they inspected last time? There must be something wrong with it. In addition, the police station’s last time line is consistent with the time when the two hostages arrived in Nanjing. This may be Coincidence?"
The shopkeeper nodded and said: "Well, okay... I understand. If you check like this, you won't be in danger, right?"
"Don't worry, it won't happen." Bai Jingfei said, "It's all normal work. I didn't deliberately check. So there is no suspicion on me."
"Okay." The shopkeeper said: "I understand. My superiors have instructed me to inform the people of Chongqing's time-honored brand as soon as possible once I discover the situation. I will do this tomorrow. In addition, for your safety, I will leave after the new year. . At that time, new comrades will come to contact you. During this period, you should not make any more moves."
"Are you leaving?" Bai Jingfei said differently: "We work together very well."
The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Thank you. I feel good cooperating with you. However, this is for your safety. Think about it, this time we are cooperating with people from Chongqing's time-honored brands. In addition, there is a person who met If you pass me, you know what these people are like. So there is no way I can stay here anymore."
"Okay." Bai Jingfei actually had something else to say, but today's situation was quite urgent and he couldn't delay too long. So he decided to wait until next time. So he said: "Okay, I wish you a safe journey. Time is running out, I have to leave first."
"Thank you." The shopkeeper nodded and said, "Come on, everything goes well for you."
After Bai Jingfei said that, he turned around and left the hut directly, heading towards his residence.
The shopkeeper took some pieces of straw paper and rubbed them with his hands to make the paper softer. Then he came out of the hut, turned around, locked the door, and returned to Qingyuan Hotel. After entering the door, I happened to see the store clerk and said: "Oh, please give me one of your dry cigarettes quickly. After searching around for a while, it seems that they are all closed."
As he spoke, the shopkeeper took out the straw paper and placed it on the counter. The store clerk immediately agreed upon hearing this and handed one of the dry cigarettes he had rolled to the shopkeeper. He smiled and said: "Boss, I've ordered this. Very few grocery stores are still open. It's normal that you can't buy any. I'll give you a few more sticks to keep for a while."
The shopkeeper paused and said, "Okay, give me two more. Once the guests at these tables leave, let's put the door panels on for proof."
"Okay, you can rest." The waiter agreed and began to move the chairs from the surrounding dining tables to the table and start working.
That's it. Less than half an hour later, the last table of guests had almost finished drinking. After paying the bill, they walked out arm-in-arm...
