Seeing the way some people avoided him, Li Zhengyi couldn't help but lament that some things cannot be changed by himself, nor can they be achieved in a short period of time.
"Captain, do you want to go find something to eat somewhere?"
Looking at the sky, it was time to have dinner, but the two of them had obviously just eaten tofu pudding.
Logically speaking, it was impossible to get hungry so quickly. Li Zhengyi couldn't help but turn his head and look at Zhang Daniu next to him.
Seeing his honest eyes, he didn't have any small thoughts.
It's not like he wants to do something shameful when he's on a business trip.
However, although Li Zhengyi didn't say much, he didn't agree either.
Even if this guy was talking about having a serious meal, there were three other men waiting for them inside the inn.
As a good young man, how could Li Zhengyi leave his companions to eat alone?
"Let's go back first. We'll talk about it later and see if the three of them can find out anything."
And compared with eating, of course tasks and cases are more important.
I originally thought I could compile it when I get back. After all, it's just a matter of getting some information, so it shouldn't take long.
Besides, it has been over two hours since Li Zhengyi and the others came here. Liu Sangou and the three of them should be over, no matter how slow it is.
But after returning, he found that the situation was a little different from what he thought. Not only did he not find out the news well, but he also did not follow Li Zhengyi's instructions for the three of them to act together.
"What's going on? Where are the two of them? Why didn't you follow them?"
After returning to the room at Yangshan Inn, I tried to push it and found that the door next door was open.
There was only Xiao Chen inside, who pulled up a stool and sat by the window, looking outside.
Facing Li Zhengyi's questioning, Xiao Chen, who was about the same age as him, looked a little panicked and a little aggrieved.
Under someone's gaze, he hurriedly explained: "The two of them said it wouldn't be that troublesome to go out to find out the news, and they were afraid that Captain you wouldn't be able to find anyone when you came back, so they asked me to stay and guard."
…
Although there is nothing wrong with this way of handling it, and it seems more reasonable than what Li Zhengyi arranged.
Leaving one person to guard the house can indeed avoid the embarrassment of missing two groups of people and being unable to contact them.
But Li Zhengyi clearly gave his instructions when he left, and just threw his words out the window as soon as he turned around. Is this appropriate?
What's more, as a modern person, what is the most important thing?
Of course it was personal safety. Since he had brought these people out, he must take them back safely.
That's why the other three people must act together when he is away.
But he didn't expect that they would make such a fuss, and Li Zhengyi's face darkened immediately.
"Really, how could they do this? The captain clearly gave instructions before leaving. It must be that guy Xu Dabao who wants to separate, right?"
…
Seeing this, Zhang Daniu next to him did not forget to seize the opportunity to give his opponent eye drops, leaving Li Zhengyi even more speechless.
"No, no, Lao Liu also agreed."
Fortunately, Xiao Chen is still quite honest because of his age, and told the truth honestly.
Seeing that Zhang Daniu was defeated, Li Zhengyi not only felt a little better, but maybe it was because he didn't trust himself just like Zhang Daniu did before.
But soon, Li Zhengyi put these thoughts away and continued to ask about the previous matter.
Now that the situation has become like this, of course he cannot turn back time, so he directly asked: "Then do you know where the two of them are now?"
After hearing Li Zhengyi's question, Xiao Chen's head was pounding and he quickly replied: "I know, I know, they came back once during the trip and said they had walked around South Street, and they should be back soon on East Street now." .”
After he finished speaking, he immediately added: "The two of them, like me, wore gray and black cloth clothes. Before going out, I said that they would only wander around the street. If you want to look for them, you can easily see them."
"Captain, do you want me to find them back right now?"
"you go…"
Just when Li Zhengyi was about to ask Xiao Chen to check at the door, he heard the sounds of moving and talking in the corridor outside.
Sure enough, after just a few breaths, the door was pushed open.
"Captain, are you back?"
"Captain, we've almost explored the matter..."
Just when Liu Sankou and Xu Dabao were about to report directly, Li Zhengyi stopped them.
"Sit down and have some tea first."
There must be something to say about them casually changing their instructions and acting separately.
But it's not at this time. If the two of them just come back from doing things, pouring cold water on them, it will indeed dampen their enthusiasm.
"Xiao Chen, you go down and ask for a table of food from the boss. Just eight dishes, half meat and half vegetables. Let them cook them first and serve them after they are done."
There is a place to eat in this inn, so Li Zhengyi is not going to spend any time looking for it again.
When he made such an arrangement, the expressions on the other people's faces instantly became happy.
If they hadn't followed Li Zhengyi out, normally with just a few of them, they would have struggled to cook four or five dishes, let alone eight dishes, let alone half and half meat and vegetables.
In addition, most of the money Li Zhengyi gave them to buy clothes fell into his own pocket.
The coarse cloth clothes I am wearing now can cost me a few pennies.
Not to mention that you can take this outfit back home and wear it when working or changing.
In their opinion, this is not a place to work, but a place to enjoy themselves.
"Captain, how are you doing there?"
After Liu Sangou and the others sat down, they also took the initiative to ask Li Zhengyi about the situation there.
Of course someone told the truth about this matter.
"We've agreed, we can arrest people tomorrow."
Li Zhengyi just gave a general idea and did not express his doubts.
In fact, he was quite concerned about the case, but he didn't learn anything, so he couldn't say anything useful.
I just hope that the information these two people will get soon will be of some help.
Just after leaving for a while, Xiao Chen came back again.
"Captain, I've already spoken to the shopkeeper and he said he'll be here right away."
Sure enough, not long after, the waiter brought in the food ordered by Li Zhengyi and the others on a large plate.
The eight dishes are braised pork, white pork with garlic paste, steamed sea bass, and fried pork with green pepper.
Mapo tofu, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, spicy and sour shredded potatoes, vinegar cabbage.
In addition, the boss also sent a dish of tofu soup, and it took the waiter two times to finish it.
