Shu Guan walked over with a smile.
Speaking of which, he hasn't seen Rong Miao for several days. In the past few days, he went to Yinle City to investigate the matter of "Swallow", then went to Dahong Mountain to explore the ruins, and then the senior brother woke up. Leaving, and then investigating Yang Jianjun's affairs, he was so busy that even though he missed Rong Miao very much, he couldn't find time to see her.
When walking towards the table where Rong Miao was sitting, Shu Guan scanned the restaurant and quickly found Nishitani Taiji.
He had already seen the other party's photo at Nishitani Taiji's home, so he recognized him at a glance.
"Why are you here?"
Arriving next to Rong Miao, Rong Miao asked in confusion.
She knew very well that Shu Guan would never come to such a place unless it was to accompany her.
"Find someone."
Shu Guan said with a smile and glanced at the table next to Rong Miao.
Because coincidentally, Nishitani Taiji was sitting at the table next to Eikon.
Nishitani Taiji is a middle-aged man in his early forties. He has a clear-cut face, sharp and resolute eyes, and a well-maintained figure. He looks very strong, especially his hands, which have thick joints and knuckles. Calluses.
】
Although this is an ordinary person, he should be proficient in fighting techniques, and it can be seen that this person has an extremely firm will.
Nishitani Taiji was wearing a kimono from their Kingdom of the Rising Sun, with a chest ornament like a cherry blossom badge on his chest.
Sakura is the national flower of the Land of the Rising Sun.
His gaze lingered on the cherry blossom accessory on Nishitani Taiji's chest for a second or two, and he narrowed his eyes.
At this time, Nishitani Taiji was chatting with several people at the same table who were also wearing kimonos, but he seemed to be very alert and seemed to have noticed that Su Guan was looking at him, and quickly turned his head to look at Su Guan.
But at this time, Shu Guan had already looked away and was looking at his girlfriend.
"Looking for someone? Is it a work matter?"
Rong Miao asked in a low voice.
Shu Dian nodded.
"That……"
"Not urgent."
Shu Guan smiled again.
Now that the person has been found, there is no rush for the time being, and Shu Guan still has to think about how to take Nishitani Taiji away.
"Then let's have something to eat and I'll introduce you to my friends."
Rong Miao laughed happily.
There were four other people at Rong Miao's table.
It was only because Shu Guan had been observing Nishitani Taiji just now that he looked at the other people at Rong Miao's table.
Opposite Rong Miao, there was also a woman sitting.
When Shu took a clear look at the woman's appearance, he was suddenly startled and couldn't help but murmured in his heart.
...What a coincidence today...
Because the woman sitting opposite Rong Miao turned out to be Xu Chuxiang!
At this time, Xu Chuxiang was looking at Shu Guan with a look of extreme surprise and astonishment.
But she seemed to have realized something, biting her lip at the moment and not speaking.
"This is my best sister, Xu Chuxiang!"
Rong Miao pointed at Xu Chuxiang and introduced Shu Guan:
"Even though she is a girl, sister Chu Xiang is a very powerful architect. However, she was too busy some time ago and never had the chance to introduce you to her."
Rong Miao only introduced the identity of Xu Chuxiang's architectural designer, but did not say that Xu Chuxiang was the daughter of Xu Pingxi, the governor-general of Chuxiang.
Shu Guan was not too surprised that Rong Miao and Xu Chuxiang knew each other.
After all, these two women can be said to be the beauties of the top society in the Republic of China. It is normal for their life trajectories to intersect.
"Hello, Miss Xu!"
As if meeting Xu Chuxiang for the first time, Shu Guan smiled, nodded to Xu Chuxiang, and said hello.
There was nothing strange on his face, but his heartbeat was slightly accelerated.
Of course, Shu Guan was not a thief with a guilty conscience, and there was nothing between him and Xu Chuxiang.
But it was difficult for him to explain to Rong Miao why he had known Xu Chuxiang for a long time. After all, in Rong Miao's eyes, he was just an ordinary patrol bureau patrolman, and how could he have the qualifications and opportunity to meet a person like Xu Chuxiang.
Xu Chuxiang also had a smile on his face, as if he was meeting Shu Guan for the first time, and nodded to Shu Guan with a smile.
It's just that his expression is a little unnatural.
Shu Guan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and was very grateful to Xu Chuxiang.
Then Rong Miao introduced him to several other people at the table. There were two men and one woman at the same table. The woman was also Rong Miao's friend. She looked quite gentle and delicate. Judging from her dress and temperament, she must have a family background. An extraordinary woman.
As for the two men, they were both in their early thirties, wearing suits and leather shoes, and handsome. One of them, surnamed Liu, was an associate professor in the Department of Architecture at Jingcheng University.
A man named Ji seems to be engaged in some kind of financial industry. It is said that his family owns a bank.
Shu Guan didn't pay much attention, but since he was Rong Miao's friend, he still smiled and said hello.
The university associate professor surnamed Liu was okay and took the initiative to stand up and shake hands with Shu Guan.
But the financial genius named Ji sat there without moving. He looked at Shu Guan indifferently, and then asked slowly.
"Miss Rong, I wonder who this person is?"
Ever since Shu Guan appeared, seeing Rong Miao's affectionate attitude towards Shu Guan, this guy's face has not been very good.
"Let me introduce to you, he is my boyfriend, Shu Guan."
Rong Miao generously took Shu Guan's arm.
On Rong Miao's wrist, she wore the diamond watch Shuguan gave her. In fact, the value of the watch itself was slightly lower than Rong Miao's status.
But Rongmiao likes it very much. Since Shuguan gave it to her, she has never worn any other watch.
Rong Miao's introduction and the intimate behavior with Shu Guan made the man named Ji's face become darker, and a trace of jealousy flashed in his eyes.
As for Xu Chuxiang opposite, looking at Rong Miao and Shu Guan being intimate, his eyes were extremely complicated, and he lowered his head and looked away.
"Have you had dinner?"
"not yet?"
"Then I'll order you some steak."
Rong Miao raised her hand to summon the restaurant waiter. In a restaurant of this level, it was not allowed to add seats casually, but because Rong Miao was a big customer here, she still added a seat at the table for Shu Guan.
Shu Guan glanced at the table next to him, then sat down. Since he was there, he would have dinner with his girlfriend first.
After Shu Guan sat down, the man named Ji seemed to ask casually:
"I wonder where Mr. Shu is employed?"
"My boyfriend is a patrolman."
Rong Miao smiled and helped Shu Guan said.
Xu Chuxiang, who was lowering his head to drink water, raised his head in shock and almost sprayed a mouthful of water directly on Shu Guan's face.
She looked at Shu Guan and then at Rong Miao.
Shu Guan gave her a rather embarrassed look in return.
"Haha, it turns out to be Inspector Shu. What a pleasure to meet you."
The man named Ji said it was a pleasure to meet him, but there was no hint of pleasure on his face. Instead, there was a trace of contempt in his eyes.
For him, a little detective really didn't take him seriously.
"I'm not a detective, I'm just a patrolman."
Shu Guan corrected him seriously. After all, he never told me that Rong Miao was going to be promoted.
The contempt in the eyes of the man surnamed Ji became even stronger.
I didn't expect that he was just an ordinary policeman. I really didn't know what Rongmiao saw in him. With Rongmiao's family background, how could he find such a humble policeman as his boyfriend? Turning a blind eye to the pursuit of young talents with talents to match.
Where did he lose to this kid?
The more the man named Ji thought about it, the more he felt dissatisfied.
So he chuckled, raised the red wine glass, shook it, and said something casually.
"I'm quite familiar with the director of the Jingcheng Police Department. He invited me to play cards two days ago. Unfortunately, I don't have time. I'm a little sorry."
At this time, a waiter came over with a steak.
What Rong Miao gave Shu Guan was his usual favorite pan-fried sirloin steak, grilled to medium rare, hot and exuding an alluring aroma, and paired with a drizzle of black pepper sauce, which greatly increased appetite. .
"I'm not familiar with him."
Shu Guan smiled at the man surnamed Ji, said this, and then began to eat steak, ignoring the man surnamed Ji.
In Shu Guan's previous life, this kind of person was the most annoying. When they first met at a dinner party, they would ask you what you do for a living, and then start saying that I know so-and-so from your company, or that I have a good relationship with so-and-so from your industry.
As for that so-and-so, generally speaking, they are leaders with some positions or elders with some influence in some industry.
Rong Miaomiao, who was beside Shu Guan, chuckled lightly and didn't mind at all.
Then Shu Guan ate the steak seriously, while Rong Miao's friends continued to chat.
However, neither Xu Chuxiang nor Rong Miao joined the conversation.
Xu Chuxiang silently ate a piece of apple pie in front of him.
Rong Miao looked at Shu Guan who was eating steak with a gentle smile.
As for the topics that the other three people talked about, they were basically about the rise and fall of stocks during this period, the ups and downs of gold prices, changes in bank interest rates, etc. The leader of the topic was naturally the man surnamed Ji.
While drinking red wine, the man surnamed Ji said quite proudly that if everyone is interested, they can invest money with him, with guaranteed profits and so on.
Then he talked about Datong's financial expertise in a vague manner. At one point, he seemed to mention the recent interest rate cut by the United Overseas Central Bank. After expressing his views, he suddenly turned around and asked Shu Guan:
"Perspective Shu, what do you think?"
This was purely a deliberate attempt to embarrass Shu Guan.
As the saying goes, the people sitting at this table are very well-educated, but everyone else had only a vague understanding of what the man surnamed Ji just said.
Not to mention that Shu Guan is just a policeman, so how can he possibly understand these profound financial knowledge.
Rong Miao's face changed slightly and she was about to speak. However, Shu Guan stretched out a hand and gently pressed the back of her palm, signaling Rong Miao not to be angry.
Then he finished the last piece of steak, put down his fork, smiled at the others and said:
"Okay, I'll just say a few words."
According to Shu Guan's own personality, he was too lazy to talk nonsense with this man named Ji.
But now that Rong Miao has these friends, as her boyfriend, he cannot let her lose face.
Then just chat casually.
Next, Shu Guan spoke for half an hour.
From bank interest rates to inflation, from inflation to the depreciation of the current legal currency, and from the depreciation of the legal currency to the impact on all walks of life.
In Shu Guan's previous life, although he could not be called a generalist, he did belong to the kind of person who knew a little bit about everything, and he also had a small art in his mind.
If he is asked to operate some financial practices, he may not know where to start, but there is no problem at all in fooling the so-called elites of this era.
And during the half hour he was speaking, everyone at the table stared at him blankly, including Rong Miao, who originally thought she knew Shu Guan very well, but also looked deeply at Shu Guan with a pair of wonderful eyes, and her eyes were full of colors.
She likes Shu Guan, not because of Shu Guan's talent, but just out of pure love.
But Shu Guan, who was sitting there and chatting, made her like him even more.
During this period, the man surnamed Ji could not help but excitedly refuted Shu Guan several times because of some of Shu Guan's views that he could not understand at all. Of course, in the end, Shu Guan was speechless.
Perhaps among Rong Miao's friends at this table, the one who was least surprised by Shu Guan's performance was Xu Chuxiang.
Is it fun for you, a great immortal, to bully a mortal like this?
Originally, Shu Guan had been talking for half an hour, but there was still some unfinished meaning. Unfortunately, a burst of laughter came from the table next door, interrupting the conversation.
The loud laughter was made by Taiji Nishitani. He seemed to be talking about something happy with the people at the same table. After a burst of laughter, he said something else.
But he spoke in the language of the Kingdom of the Rising Sun, so Shu Guan couldn't understand him either.
Shu Guan did know a few sentences of Rising Sun Chinese...but only those few sentences, and they were mainly based on modal particles.
But at this time, Nishiya Taiji turned his head and looked at their table.
He seemed to have drank a lot, his face was red, and his eyes were full of drunkenness.
Most of the men in the Kingdom of the Rising Sun have the same virtues, that is, when they are sober, they all look courteous and courteous, but once they are drunk, their true nature often shows up, as if they are a different person. Arrogant and rude.
Just like this moment, Taiji Nishitani looked at the table of people in Shuguan provocatively and said what he just said again in Mandarin.
"I just told my companions that you Chinese people are all China pigs without courage. When I was in the Marine Corps and participated in the Sino-Japanese War of 1898, I personally chopped off the heads of sixteen of your Chinese soldiers in one go. Heads, and they are kneeling on the ground like pigs, not even daring to escape, hahahaha..."
Nishitani Taiji laughed triumphantly again.
Except for Shu Guan, the faces of everyone at the table became extremely ugly for a moment.
For example, the university associate professor named Liu seemed to be very angry. He clenched his fists tightly and just looked at Nishitani Taiji's burly figure. After all, he did not dare to stand up and argue with him.
Moreover, this is a concession. Although it is not a concession of the Kingdom of the Rising Sun, it is still a concession. If you have a dispute with a member of the Kingdom of the Rising Sun here, no matter whether it is justified or not, you will always be the one who suffers in the end.
Xu Chuxiang's eyes flickered, and it was also clear that the daughter of the military governor was very angry now. Then she glanced outside the restaurant door, as if she wanted to do something.
As for the man named Ji, he shook his head and sighed:
"Actually, I have to admit that today's Kingdom of the Rising Sun is indeed much better than our Dahua..."
Shu Guan raised his eyes and glanced at him, then took the red wine glass in front of Rong Miao, brought it to his mouth and took a sip, smiling at Rong Miao:
"I'm going to arrest someone later, and the method may be a bit drastic. Don't worry."
After finishing speaking, Shu Guan raised his hand and poured half a glass of red wine directly on the face of the man named Ji. Then he smashed the red wine glass towards the next table and hit Nashitani Taiji's forehead very accurately.
The red wine glass shattered, not to mention Nishitani Taiji’s forehead was quite hard.
A stream of blood slowly flowed down from Nishitani Taiji's forehead.
Nishitani Taiji was stunned for two or three seconds, as if he never thought that a big Chinese would dare to hit him with a cup.
When the blood on his forehead flowed into his eyes,
Nishitani Taiji finally realized what had happened, and his eyes filled with his own blood shot out with a ferocious and violent light like a beast.
"idiot!"
Nishitani Taiji roared, kicked his chair away, and then rushed towards Shu Guan.
