After spending a whole day working from day to night, Hu Xiuwu and Lin Hui finally read all the information about the Lions Club and marked all the suspicious places.
It was not until the early morning of the next day that Hu Xiuwu and Lin Hui came out of the archives room after being searched by the guards at the door and confirming that they had no files with them. However, their states were completely different.
One was in high spirits and showed no sign of fatigue, while the other was sluggish, with black eyes and yawning from time to time.
Seeing Lin Hui's tired look, Hu Xiuwu asked him, "Brother Lin, do you want to go eat something first?"
After touching his empty stomach, Lin Hui was indeed a little hungry.
Staying up late to work is completely different from staying up late to play games. We are all human beings too. We will still be tired after working all day and all night, and we will still curse when we make reports. Only those who are successful in practicing Qi and have a strong life like a Taoist like Hu Xiuwu A wise man can still not feel tired after working all night.
Slapping someone in the face and pretending to be fat are never admirable ways of doing things. Only children who can cry will have milk to drink.
Lin Hui has been in the Huode Sect for a while and has long understood this truth: "That's really great. I feel like I can clean up the canteen now."
Hu Xiuwu glanced at the clock in the corridor: "It's only five o'clock now. The chef in the cafeteria probably hasn't finished cooking yet, but you can order instant noodles and eggs from the uncle in charge of logistics and cook them yourself."
In any case, Hu Xiuwu, Hu Bayi, and Wang Kaixuan all spent time in Dudutong in South China. I don’t know about other places, but the places to eat must be familiar. In addition, he often chats with Chen Duo. Chen Duo always tells everything about her day just like writing a diary.
Hu Xiuwu led Lin Hui to a canteen that was accessible everywhere in South China.
However, what surprised him was that the cafeteria, which he originally thought would be empty and silent, was now bustling with people. Most of the people who knew everything in South China were already working in the cafeteria.
Pot after pot of hot porridge and noodles are simmering on the stove. As soon as the hot bubbles slowly creeping up from the bottom of the pot break, a burst of aroma overflows. There are also steamers with clouds and steamed buns, which are eaten by several pairs of hungry wolves. They stared with the same eyes, just waiting for the clouds to drift out, and then started to grab.
In front of Qianfan, there is no friendship.
"Hey, this~"
Liao Zhong waved his chopsticks and motioned for Hu Xiuwu and Lin Hui to come over.
There were other Moutong employees beside him, and Lao Liang was taking a bite of hot porridge beside him, tasting the hot porridge gracefully.
After Hu Xiuwu and Lin Hui sat down, Liao Zhong pushed the drawer of steamed buns on the table towards them:
"I wanted to call you, but I didn't expect you to come here on your own. Lin Hui, try it. This is our chef's masterpiece. How many people in South China voluntarily stayed up late and worked overtime because of this steamed bun."
Liao Zhong had chopsticks in one hand and Huazi in the other, both spiritual and material food. Smoke was swirling around him, but the smoke Liao Zhong exhaled abnormally only surrounded himself, not a single bit drifted towards Lao Liang, just like It was like there was a wall of air between the two of them.
Hu Xiuwu took out a pair of chopsticks from the chopstick holder, picked up a bun without ceremony, and swallowed it into his mouth in one breath, feeling the soft and waxy texture of the dough, and the aroma of the meat filling hidden inside after the dough was broken open. .
After a tiring night, these sweet and delicious buns really soothed people's hearts. Hu Xiuwu took another bun and tasted it carefully before asking vaguely:
"What's going on? Why did the meal start so early today, and there are so many people here."
Liao Zhong took a puff of his cigarette happily. The housekeeper and his wife are not here today, so no one cares about his smoking. Don’t enjoy it:
"You are working, and we are not idle. Lu Jiang recruited him last night. He deeply realized his mistake. In order to atone for his sin (not entering the bunker), he also surrendered several colleagues. Make atonement for your sins.”
"In order to prevent those people from escaping and to quickly rescue the children in his hands, everyone has been busy all night."
"How's it going? Did you get anything there?"
Lin Hui was quietly cooking aside, but when Liao Zhong asked about the progress, he quickly swallowed the mouthful of food:
"We have reviewed all the information of the Lions Club over the past few decades and indeed found several suspects whose whereabouts are unknown. Among them, the one that most arouses the suspicion of Brother Hu and me is Wang Wanghu's disciple Zeng Zijie."
When Lao Liang heard this name, he put down the bowl in his hand and slapped Liao Zhong casually, causing a breeze to rise and disperse the surrounding smoke:
"Wang Wanghu? I remember him. He is an old man of the Lions Club. He has a unique skill in picking young people that no one can match. He was the star figure of the Lions Club twenty years ago."
"But I heard that he practiced carelessly more than ten years ago, became obsessed with it, and lost all his skills. Now he teaches lion dance to apprentices at the Seven Star Lion Dance Academy."
Liao Zhong puffed out smoke and recalled: "I have the impression that I had been with South China for a few years at that time. At that time, the Lions Club treated the matter coldly and did not hold anyone accountable, nor did they report the case to anyone. If it can be accessed anywhere, there is no reason to investigate, and it will be settled in the end.”
Lin Hui said: "That's right, but his apprentice Zeng Zijie disappeared after his cultivation was deposed. There are people in the files who suspect that Wang Wanghu's dethronement was related to him."
"Xiao Lin, please go and rest first. Look at your red eyes, they look like rabbits. I'll just ask people from South China to check."
After hearing this, Liao Zhong thought for a while and then said to Lin Hui.
Lin Hui didn't become suspicious. He touched his hair and said, "Okay, I really feel that I am getting older. Brother Hu is still full of energy, but I really can't do it anymore."
This is a domestic matter in South China. Lin Hui thought that Liao Zhong also disliked people from other regions. He intervened in the internal affairs of South China and was in charge of North China. Xu Xiang, who was also the oldest person in charge of the region, did not like other regions. people reached out into North China.
As long as there is a case involving North China, either Xu Xiang will solve the case directly, or he will investigate the clues and give them to you directly. No matter what, people from other regions are not allowed to come to North China to handle the case.
Of course, some people had objections to such a domineering attitude, but the board of directors, except for Zhao Fangxu, just thought that Xu Xiang didn't like others to interfere in his work, so it was not a big deal. Secondly, Xu Xiang has outstanding achievements, is experienced in doing things, and never makes mistakes. It is difficult for the board of directors to punish him without a reason.
After eating and drinking, Lin Hui went back to take a nap.
Liao Zhong looked at Hu Xiuwu: "I have made an agreement with the others to keep it a secret and not to mention the temporary workers."
Hu Xiuwu poured himself a bowl of soy milk: "Lin Hui does think that I am a temporary worker in South China."
"Okay," Liao Zhong is not afraid of his colleagues in the southwest, he is just worried about the cancer. If he knows that Chen Duo has the Tang Sect's elixir, such an interesting thing, the troublemaker will probably not let him go.
"Just in time, are you tired? If not, you and Duo'er can go to Foshan after eating for a while and check out Wang Wanghu and Zeng Zijie."
As soon as he heard that he could go out alone with Chen Duo, Hu Xiuwu, who had no feeling at all, became even more excited as if he had drank a strong drink of wine and coffee:
"Of course you're not tired, you actually want Duo'er and me to go out alone."
"Well, my daughter is getting older. Compared with others, you are more pleasing to the eye and a little smaller."
Liao Zhong was also helpless. Hu Xiuwu could forget it. If he was really entangled by Wang Zhenqiu...
Wang Zhenqiu and Chen Duo stood together, that scene...
Liao Zhong couldn't stand it just thinking about it.
