eight pm.
The street lights are on in the old streets of Hongxian County.
Neon lights on both sides of the road are also lit up one after another.
Longmen Lao Hotpot, not far from the County Public Security Bureau, is crowded.
The hotpot restaurant is booked out today.
Eight or nine dining tables are filled with wine and food, waiting for customers to enter the store.
"Officer Cheng, please come inside!"
The boss stood outside the door and saw Cheng Chuan and others coming out of the Public Security Bureau and greeted them warmly.
Cheng Chuan ordered nine tables at the hot pot restaurant based on the standard of three hundred and one tables.
Meet Yang Xiao's standards.
In the past, the criminal investigation team would have dinner at the Yanhui Lai Restaurant.
The consumption there is not low.
There are forty or fifty people in the Criminal Investigation Brigade, plus the leaders of other departments in the bureau, there must be about seventy people. If you come back from the banquet and spend money in a restaurant, even three thousand yuan or double it will not be enough!
Yang Xiao is the master.
Greet guests at the door.
The first to arrive were the members of the Criminal Investigation Brigade. They walked into the hot pot restaurant and found a seat to sit down, chatting noisily.
Then came Mao Feng, the captain of the economic investigation brigade, and Chen Yong, the instructor; Qin Jianguo, the captain of the security brigade, and Zhang Qing, the instructor; Zhang Qingming, the captain of the traffic police brigade, and Chen Tao, the instructor; Xu Guihua, the office director; Ma Bowen, the director of the Science and Technology Information Department; Zhou Mei, director of the Police Security Section...
This was Yang Xiao's first treat since he came to Hong County. Cheng Chuan invited the first and second leaders of all departments of the Public Security Bureau.
Everyone also gave Yang Xiao face, and no one made excuses to refuse.
After all, Yang Xiao is now a popular figure in the Public Security Bureau.
Killing knife-wielding gangsters, investigating Shi Tao's case, and participating in solving the 730 major case. In just over a month, he has done more than some people do in a lifetime of being a police officer.
No one would treat Yang Xiao as someone who came down from the air to gain seniority.
Judging from Yang Xiao's performance, it won't take long for him to be promoted.
Who wouldn't want to have a good relationship with such a person?
It is not convenient for bureau leaders to attend such gatherings.
Cheng Chuan was very sensible and did not invite Yang Xiao.
The last to arrive were deputy captain Guan Ye and squadron leader Ke Yuanzheng of Caimiao Squadron.
They appeared to have been drinking.
He greeted Yang Xiao with a smile, smelling of alcohol all over his body.
Ke Yuanzheng found a corner and sat down.
After Guan Ye arrived, he immediately picked up his wine glass, wandered around the dining tables, and greeted the top and second leaders of other departments warmly.
The posture was like he was treating guests.
Everyone is here.
Yang Xiao said a few symbolic words, then asked everyone to use their chopsticks, and then brought tea to the table to express his gratitude.
Most of the people here are young people, and they just eat when they want to eat. If they are too polite, they won't be able to let go.
Yang Xiao's shoulder injury has not healed.
Can be used to hide from alcohol.
Otherwise, it would be difficult to walk out of the hot pot restaurant standing up tonight.
"Xiao Yang!"
Xu Guihua saw Yang Xiao coming down from the sky and walking towards the table of the captains with a bowl in hand. She quickly stepped forward and greeted:
"Don't sit at the same table with them!
These people are all grown up in wine jars. Why don’t I stop pouring wine on you when you sit down?
Do you still want your arms?
Come, sit next to me! "
Xu Guihua spoke, and the others could only let Yang Xiao leave.
"I'm sorry, everyone. Eat and drink well. If you don't have enough food, ask the boss for more. Don't be polite!"
Yang Xiao was pulled up from his seat by Xu Guihua and brought to their ladies' table.
Ever since Xia Chaoyang's incident, Xu Guihua was particularly affectionate towards Yang Xiao, and she did not shy away from taking care of him even in the workplace.
I bring fruits from home every once in a while.
He also moved the spare TV set to Yang Xiao's dormitory.
The Xia family's affairs had already spread in Hong County.
Everyone said that Yang Xiao dragged Su Yuezhu out of the fire pit.
No matter how kind Xu Guihua is to Yang Xiao, others can't say anything.
"Xiao Yang, eat the hairy belly!"
Xu Guihua kept picking up food for Yang Xiao.
Yang Xiao was injured on his left shoulder, and after a period of recovery, the skin and flesh have healed, leaving two dazzling scars. His life has not been affected, and he is currently undergoing rehabilitation training.
"Thank you Sister Guihua, I'll do it myself." Yang Xiao wanted to refuse, but couldn't resist Xu Guihua's enthusiasm, so he could only find some topics to chat with her and asked:
"Sister Guihua, yesterday I saw your niece coming to the bureau for an interview, and she looked a little ugly.
Has Xia Chaoyang been found? "
Xu Guihua did not shy away from talking about this matter at work.
The Xia family had already lost all their face when they made a big fuss at the Public Security Bureau.
There is nothing more that cannot be said.
Su Yuezhu didn't go to Hong Kong Island, and Ye didn't go to Beautiful Country.
Still working in television.
Her family is the biggest victim in this matter.
Xu Guihua put down her chopsticks and said angrily:
"found it!
The Xia family said that he is now doing business in Shencheng.
Bullshit!
We won't believe his lies anymore anyway. "
"Yes, you can't believe what this kind of person says!" Zhou Mei, director of the Police Security Section, sat opposite and asked:
"The Xia family doesn't have an explanation?
This matter can't just go by without mentioning it! "
Xu Guihua took a sip of the drink, stared, smashed the drink bottle on the table, and said:
"Just let it pass?
How can there be such a good thing in the world!
My old Wu gave the Xia family a deadline. Xia Chaoyang must return to Hong County before the end of August or September.
Make things clear.
Not only did the Xia family have to withdraw all the money they had defrauded over the past few years, but they also had to compensate Yuezhu for her mental losses!
Otherwise, we will call the police, ruin the Xia family's reputation, and let Xia Chaoyang stay in prison for the rest of his life! "
Zhou Mei responded and said:
"Yes! We must make such people pay the price!
He really knows people and faces but not their hearts.
Xia Chaoyang seemed quite honest, but he didn't expect to do such a shameless thing.
Director Xu, we must punish him well this time! "
Yang Xiao buried his head in his food and said nothing.
He saw Su Yuezhu yesterday and had a vague feeling that something was wrong with her.
I can't tell where the problem is.
I hope things can be handled properly.
The topic at the table shifted to Xia Chaoyang, and Xu Guihua became the protagonist of the table. She talked endlessly about the shamelessness of the Xia family, and she stopped frequently picking up food for Yang Xiao.
Yang Xiao took advantage of this time to pick up the tea cup and walk around the hot pot restaurant.
When he arrived at the table where instructor Cheng Chuan, deputy captain Mu Anbang and several squadron captains were sitting, Cheng Chuan's cell phone rang. He took out his cell phone and glanced at the phone number. He quickly put down his wine glass, apologized to Yang Xiao, and then He hurriedly walked outside the hot pot restaurant and answered the phone.
He waited until Yang Xiao walked around with the people holding the tea cup before returning to his seat.
Cheng Chuan looked embarrassed, picked up the wine glass and said to Yang Xiao:
"Yang Da, I'm so sorry.
There's something urgent at home and I have to rush back right away.
I’ll give you a toast and ask Yang Da for your understanding. "
Yang Xiao can understand.
Everyone is bringing their families with them.
Who can still be in a hurry?
He clinked the tea cup with Cheng Chuan, and they both drank it in one gulp.
"Why!"
Mu Anbang waited until Cheng Chuan walked out of the hot pot restaurant, shook his head and sighed:
"That matter at the instructor's house...is troublesome!"
Yang Xiao was about to turn around and go to the next table, but stopped when he heard Mu Anbang's emotion, sat down at Cheng Chuan's seat and asked curiously:
“Da Mu, what’s going on at the instructor’s house?
Do you all know?
Tell me. "
