The Devil is Lurking By Your Side - Chapter 140

Two weeks later, Leng Yu and Lin Xin both returned to Yang City. Since a period of time has passed since the case, Lin Xin put together the collected evidence and the records sent by Officer Tang, etc., and put them all in the archives.

On this day, she was busy a bit late, so she stretched out in a chair, raised her wrist to check the time, and saw that it was 9.30 in the evening.

At this moment, the door of her room was lightly knocked three times, and then it was opened from the outside. When Lin Xin looked up, she saw Leng Yu.

She smiled immediately, lay down on the back of the chair, and asked, “Are you all packed?”

“I’ve packed up, everyone is waiting for you.” Leng Yu smiled faintly, then walked behind Lin Xin, stretched out her hand to pinch her shoulders and beat her back.

Lin Xin twisted her neck, took a deep breath, and said, “I just finished, and give me 5 minutes to clean up.”

“Well, I’ll wait for you.” Leng Yu agreed, then walked to the sofa aside and sat down.

Lin Xin hurriedly packed everything, lifted her backpack, and said, “Let’s go.”

Leng Yu stood up from the sofa again, holding Lin Xin’s hand, and the two walked out of the Federal Bureau together. They came to Leng Yu’s car, Leng Yu opened the door of the passenger seat and let Lin Xin sit in the car.

This is her usual style, and she has become accustomed to it, and the whole action is done in one go.

Later, she walked quickly around to the driver’s seat, started the car, and left the Federal Bureau.

“Where are you going to eat and drink this time?” Lin Xin asked after putting on her seat belt.

“I heard Huang Lin say that it was in the AB bar.” Leng Yu said, staring at the front and focusing on driving.

Until the car stopped at the intersection of the traffic light, Leng Yu turned his head and said to Lin Xin: “This time Director Wang called Officer Wu, and we will meet him again in a while.”

“Haha, isn’t it? I haven’t seen him for a long time since I returned to Longshi.” Lin Xin said with a smile.

Unexpectedly, Leng Yu frowned, just listen to her say: “Lin Xin, don’t crow mouth, I don’t want to see Officer Wu again.”

After hearing this, Lin Xin stuck out her tongue, shrugged, and said, “That’s right.”

“It’s good to know.” Leng Yu said grimly.

None of them wanted to see Officer Wu, because if they saw him again, it would mean another murder in Yangshi.

After a while, the two came to the AB bar. They were later taken into one of the VIP boxes by the bar manager. After pushing the door and entering, they saw that there were already 6 people sitting inside.

“You are here, come here, come here.” When Officer Wu saw them, he stood up with a smile, and then took them to the two empty chairs beside the table.

Leng Yu and Lin Xin sat down with a smile, and saw that they had ordered a table of dishes and a few bottles of beer, but they had not yet started their meal.

“You eat quickly, don’t wait for us in the future, oh, wait until the dishes are cold.” Lin Xin said, embarrassed on her face. If it weren’t for her late work, others wouldn’t have to wait too long.

“Sister Lin, we actually just came here. We haven’t waited long.” Mei Hua said from the side, alleviating Lin Xin’s embarrassment.

“Well, they are all by themselves, don’t be polite, let’s eat everyone!” At this time, Director Wang finally spoke. He was the first to pick up his chopsticks, and ate a piece of beef.

Everyone followed him to pick up dishes and ate.

Yang Cong touched his belly until they were full of food and drink, and shouted: “So full!”

“Haha, Brother Yang, when you were working with Officer Lin on the case, how long has it been since you had a good meal? And…” At this point, he glanced at Director Wang, and then turned his head to Yang Cong. Said: “And… how long hasn’t you eaten something delicious?”

“I don’t think it’s been a long time since I had a good meal. At that time, when we were handling the case, we all hurriedly ate and left. How can we sit in the box like this now and have a good meal?” Yang Cong drank some Jiu, I didn’t hesitate to speak at this moment, and spoke boldly in front of Director Wang.

Officer Wu smiled, then reached out and patted Director Wang on the shoulder, and said, “Brother Wang, have you heard? Your subordinates haven’t had a good meal for a long time. After the crime is solved, you should invite them to dinner. Ah.”

When Yang Cong heard that Police Officer Wu said this, he was half awake from the wine. He quickly said, “Uh…Uh… Director Wang, I didn’t mean that. I just had a big tongue and talk nonsense. Don’t worry about it. .”

Director Wang didn’t answer him, but just stood up, then raised his hand to pour the wine into the glasses of the crowd, and sat down again, then said: “Brother Wu, you are right. I don’t think I can hold it without them. I think you rarely burn incense and worship Buddha nowadays. You see, there have been homicides one after another. What do you think should be done?”

Officer Wu took a sip of wine, frowned and said, “Obviously you didn’t burn incense to worship Buddha, but you blame me now? You see, your bad luck has been burnt to Officer Longshitang. He, it’s only then. Have time to accompany his wife and children at home.”

“Really? Did you talk to him?” Director Wang put down his glass and asked.

“Yes, he invited his subordinates to XY Bar yesterday to drink a lot of alcohol. After seeing him, Manager Chen there couldn’t help but laugh from ear to ear.” Officer Wu said.

Later, he seemed to think of one more thing, so he turned his head and said to Lin Xin: “By the way, Officer Lin, Manager Chen asked Officer Tang to send a message and say hello to you.”

Lin Xin frowned and immediately remembered the woman in the XY bar.

“Officer Wu, you can ask Officer Tang to tell her: If she wants to find me, let her ask Officer Leng if it’s okay.” Lin Xin said, feeling a gaze close to her at the same time.

She reached under the table, squeezed Leng Yu’s palm slightly, signaled that she was okay, and also signaled to her that she said that she didn’t want to see the manager Chen again.

Unexpectedly, Leng Yu intervened at this moment and said: “Officer Wu, you tell Manager Chen that Lin Xin is already engaged to me, so please don’t worry about it.”

Police Officer Wu smiled awkwardly when seeing them both doing this, and said, “It’s hard to say, and Manager Chen didn’t say what he wanted to do.”

“It’s okay, let’s just say that. Anyway, you are just a messenger, so don’t feel embarrassed or embarrassed.” Lin Xin said again, her eyebrows faint, and she didn’t care about Manager Chen at all.

Leng Yu asked quietly in Lin Xin’s ear at this time: “What happened to Manager Chen?”

Lin Xin heard her asking, and quietly said to her: “She wants to chase me.”

The words are straightforward, without the slightest concealment.

“Oh? Chasing you? Then she’s a step late.” Leng Yu said to Lin Xin, her brows and eyes full of tenderness.

When everyone saw such loving and trusting expressions on their faces, they couldn’t help but feel happy for them. And Yang Cong, who was sitting on the side, exaggeratedly covered his eyes and shouted: “Oh, oh, I’m going to be blinded!”

Director Wang sat on the side in silence and shook his head slightly as he watched them laughing and making noise. Had it not been for Police Officer Wu to mention Manager Chen today, he hadn’t noticed the rings on the ring fingers of Leng and Lin.

After a long sip of alcohol, Officer Wu said, “Okay, okay, I’ll tell Officer Tang to go. However, I heard him say that Longshi just finished a magic show a few days ago, Lin Officer, Officer Leng, have you all been to see it?”

“I’ve seen it.” Leng Yu said lightly.

“Haha, Officer Tang said that he had also seen it, and he also squeezed a cold sweat for the performers performing there. Magic is sometimes really wonderful, it can temporarily cover the eyes of the audience, but After knowing the key, I feel it’s not surprising at all.” Officer Wu said with a smile.

“So, it’s better not to know the key inside, otherwise it will be unsightly.” When Lin Xin said this, she deliberately glanced at Leng Yu, implying that she should not take magic performances so seriously and treat it as entertainment. Just fine.

Leng Yu glanced at Lin Xin, couldn’t help but squeezed her face lightly, and said, “You, you know to talk about me.”

“Did I say you?” Lin Xin raised her eyes to look at Leng Yu, her eyes full of gentle smiles.

While everyone was talking and laughing, Leng Yu’s cell phone rang suddenly, she took it out of her trouser pocket, and saw that it was a call from her hometown in Longshi.

She felt tight, and said to everyone hurriedly: “My family called me, and I will answer it.”

Later, she hurriedly left the table, walked to a corner of the box, answered the phone, and asked, “What’s wrong?”

He only heard Xiaojun’s anxious voice from the other side, and he said: “Auntie, my friend… My friend Xiao Kai is missing…”

After Leng Yu listened, her body was cold, and she couldn’t help thinking of the magic show she had seen that day.

She said: “Xiaojun, you are calm and calm, how do you know he is missing? Tell auntie.”

Xiaojun on the other side quickly said: “After the magic show, I never received his message. I didn’t care about it at the time. I thought he was exhausted during those few days, so he probably slept all day and night. He ignored it. But later, Xiaokai’s mother came to the door and asked if we saw her son, because Xiaokai hadn’t been home for 3 days and didn’t give them a call. Xiaokai’s parents were already busy. , So I rarely take care of him, but later when they saw that Xiaokai never came home, they realized that the situation was serious, so they came to us. They thought Xiaokai had come to live with me, so they thought of it first US..”

“Have you reported the crime?” Leng Yu asked in a deep voice.

“I just reported the crime. We and his parents are still in the Public Security Bureau at the moment.” Xiaojun said.

“Well, I’ll get in touch with the police officer over there in a while, don’t worry. I’ll hang up, and I will give you a message in a while.” After Leng Yu finished speaking, he closed the phone.

When everyone saw her coming with frowning, they all asked: “Officer Leng, what happened to the house?”

Leng Yu sat down and said, “There is nothing wrong with my family. However, someone in Longshi disappeared for no apparent reason, and this person and my nephew were classmates who disappeared after the magic show.”

Suddenly someone disappeared in the peaceful Dragon City, and this person was not someone else, but Xiaojun’s friend, Xiaokai.

And he has been missing for 3 days.

In these 3 days, everything can happen, how should they find him now?
