Chapter 64 Small tricks
() Starting today, I will update 10,000 words. I am rolling around asking for attention.
…
Lin Tao was lying on the small bed, looking up at the ceiling. The dim yellow chandelier flashed with a faint halo, and a moth tirelessly "fluttered" straight into the light bulb.
He was so depressed that he came out of the detention center and entered the police room again. Could it be that he was so destined to the police?
There were footsteps outside the door, Lin Tao sat up from the bed, and then the door opened, and Li Jingguan walked in with two bowls of steaming instant noodles. There was actually a ham sausage in the noodle bowl.
"Are you hungry?" Officer Li smiled and handed over the instant noodles, "This is a police room, not a detention center. If you don't have anything to eat, I'll make do with instant noodles."
Lin Tao took the bowl of noodles and thanked him repeatedly: "Thank you so much. I feel a little hungry when I smell the fragrance!"
Li Jingguan put the instant noodles on the small table and took out a small bottle of Erguotou packed in two and a half from his trouser pocket.
"Want some?" he asked.
Lin Tao smiled and said: "Li Jingguan, why do I feel like we are working the night shift?"
Li Jingguan was amused by him and said: "What's the matter? I think you like it, so let's share some wine. If you don't like it, we won't give you food. Don't you have to endure it?" He snorted meaningfully.
, "We have no requirement to provide food and accommodation for both parties to the mediation. We have to pay for the instant noodles, ham sausage and wine out of our own pockets."
Lin Tao smiled knowingly: "I understand!"
"Eat and eat, people are made of iron rice and steel. If you don't eat even one meal, you will feel hungry!" Li Jingguan picked up the instant noodles angrily and put them into his mouth.
There are instant noodles, ham sausages, and even Erguotou. The treatment is already quite good.
However, only Lin Tao can enjoy it. Zhang Qianying's ex-husband is still locked up pitifully. Not to mention food, he doesn't even have a sip of water, and he almost dies of depression. He wants to buy it by himself, but the police guard outside won't let him.
They helped buy it and didn't care.
It was almost midnight, and he had not eaten two meals. He was so hungry that his chest pressed against his back, and his mouth was dry. He was pacing back and forth in the small room, restless.
The police room was not big to begin with, and the aroma of instant noodles soon spread to him. The more he smelled it, the hungrier he became and the more he wanted to eat. But despite him yelling, the police outside were minding their own business reading novels on their mobile phones.
Ignore him.
Officer Li personally explained that since he has such a bad attitude and insists on turning a trivial matter into a criminal case, let him wait. Anyway, the criminal police team will not send someone here until tomorrow.
Lin Tao and Li Jingguan had a good meal. After chatting, Li Jingguan learned about Zhang Qianying's ex-husband's misdeeds and had an even worse impression of him. On the contrary, he praised Lin Tao for being able to have such a good relationship with the landlord.
Well, he still helped at the critical moment. In Li Jingguan's view, Lin Tao was the kind of person who was loyal.
Not all police officers are like Captain Dong. In fact, most of them are good people. Apart from their status as police officers, they are no different from ordinary people. It is just because they wear this uniform that they have stricter and stricter requirements on themselves.
High moral restraint.
Being principled and loyal are the qualities they appreciate.
Therefore, Li Jingguan took a high look at Lin Tao.
"Are you really planning to reconcile?" Officer Li took out a cigarette and handed one to Lin Tao. After being declined, he lit it himself. There are all police officers who don't smoke, so they have to rely on this to refresh themselves when they stay up late.
"Of course, I really want to reconcile. But I have a request. He must stop disturbing others, otherwise I will apply for a grounding order!" Lin Tao said matter-of-factly.
Li Jingguan immediately became happy and said: "You think we are in the United States, and we still have a ban. However, this matter is a bit troublesome for you, but the other party is unwilling to reconcile."
Lin Tao snorted coldly: "As for the things he did, I haven't settled the accounts with him yet, but he still messed around."
Li Jingguan shuddered suddenly and sat next to Lin Tao. When Lin Tao was talking just now, the temperature around him dropped several degrees strangely.
"Um... don't be angry first. I'll have a good talk with him when it gets dark!" Officer Li subconsciously leaned to the side. The situation just now was too weird, and he felt a little scared.
"I'll leave everything to you. I don't want to spend the night here!" Lin Tao yawned, "This has caused a lot of trouble, ugh... What do you think he wants?"
"Okay, you have a good rest. I have to go over and take a look. I haven't given you anything to eat since noon, so don't get hungry and cause trouble." Li Jingguan put out his cigarette butt and stood up.
Lin Tao laughed when he heard this and said, "It's really pitiful. I eat and drink instant noodles while he doesn't even have to eat."
"This is an extra meal, I paid for it myself." Li Jingguan smiled and closed the door and left.
Not long after, Officer Li came back, carrying a four-layer insulated lunch box in his hand.
"This is given to you by the girl named Guoguo!" Putting down the lunch box, Li Jingguan took two hard puffs and praised, "Don't tell me, it's quite fragrant."
Seeing that he was about to leave, Lin Tao quickly stopped him and said, "Li Jingguan, don't leave yet. Let's see if there's anything delicious to eat. Then take a few bites."
The aroma of meat floating in the lunch box had already made Li Jingguan salivate. Compared with this, instant noodles and other things were weak.
He declined twice, but finally agreed.
Lin Tao opened all four layers of the lunch box. The first layer was braised pork ribs, the second layer was two large chicken drumsticks, the third layer was lotus root soup, and the fourth layer was full of white rice.
"This food is really good!" Li Jingguan asked with a smile, "Is that girl your girlfriend?"
"It's my sister!" Lin Tao explained.
"Come on, I can see that she is quite worried about you." Li Jingguan joked, not realizing that it was so natural, as if Lin Tao was a colleague who had a good relationship with him.
"It's really my sister. It's just that I can't live in my house, so I asked the landlord to help bring her around." Lin Tao picked a chicken leg and some ribs on the lid of the lunch box.
"Okay, okay, it's too much, I can't eat it!" Li Jingguan said quickly. It was not that he meant to be polite, but Lin Tao had pulled out most of the ribs, and it would be too much if he didn't give in.
"Why are you being so polite? There are people outside. It's late at night, so I feel really bad because I have to do this little thing!" He asked again, "How about rice? You need to get a small bowl for soup.
OK!"
Seeing how insistent he was, Li Jingguan fortunately didn't hold back and said, "Don't bother, I'll call people in, we can eat together."
"Sure, it's settled!" Lin Tao agreed readily.
In fact, he was really reluctant to share such a good meal with others, but he couldn't even take a few bites. After all, it was Guoguo and Sister Zhang's wish.
But he knew that the two police officers who were left on duty had a pretty good attitude towards him, and they sounded very dissatisfied with Zhang Qianying's ex-husband, so he was so enthusiastic. No matter what, as long as it could make Zhang Qianying's ex-husband uncomfortable, even if it was a
When I was young, I could be considered as seeking some justice for her.
Officer Li brought another police officer on duty over. As soon as he entered the door, the police officer exclaimed: "Damn, does it smell so good?"
Li Jingguan joked: "Today we borrowed all the money!"
Lin Tao laughed and said: "You're welcome, sit down and eat!"
They both prepared the stainless steel lunch boxes they usually use for instant noodles. Each of them filled a little rice with some lotus root soup and started eating.
Lin Tao only gnawed on a chicken leg and a few pieces of pork ribs, and let the two police officers eat the rest.
It wasn't until everything was wiped out that the two of them discovered that Lin Tao had hardly eaten anything, and they immediately felt embarrassed.
Li Jingguan said awkwardly: "Look at what happened, we both ate it, I'm really embarrassed."
Lin Tao said: "Don't be so polite. One chicken drumstick is enough for me. I can't eat these myself. I have to thank you for your help."
This sounds really comfortable to hear. Even if the two police officers are considered public officials, they are also the lowest level personnel, so they are not far from ordinary people, and they still maintain their kind and honest nature.
I was quite embarrassed at first, but after hearing what Lin Tao said, I felt relieved.
"Leave the lunch box to me and take it out. You can take a rest early!" Li Jingguan stood up and packed his things.
"Then why are you so embarrassed!"
"We've eaten so much, it's time to tidy up, don't give in!" Li Jingguan insisted.
"Well, I'll spare your trouble."
Li Jingguan went out with his colleagues and soon returned with a clean lunch box and bought two bottles of drinks and a bottle of mineral water.
"I don't know what kind of drink you like. Make your own choice!" Li Jingguan put down his things and left.
Lin Tao stared at the mineral water for a long time, then reached out to take it, opened it and took a few sips.
He knew that his actions had worked. If nothing unexpected happened, Zhang Qianying's ex-husband would definitely not have a good time tonight.
Lin Tao's guess was correct. Officer Li was already very unhappy with Zhang Qianying's ex-husband. If he hadn't insisted on turning it into a criminal case, he would have been able to return to the police station tomorrow, and there would be no need to work overtime in the police office in the middle of the night.
Another police officer was also full of resentment towards Zhang Qianying's ex-husband. He had planned to go shopping and watch a movie with his girlfriend in the evening, but because of his trouble, he was delayed and even had a quarrel with his girlfriend.
The two people's grievances were combined, coupled with Lin Tao's pretending to be considerate and generous in sharing delicious food with them. These factors combined together, the two police officers hit it off and didn't care about anything else tonight.
This no matter what it means, Zhang Qianying’s ex-husband has been without food for more than 12 hours from noon to now. He still drank a little water during the mediation process, but he hasn’t drank it since 4 p.m.
The room where Zhang Qianying's ex-husband was kept was not in a good condition. There was only a small sofa, unlike Lin Tao's room where at least there was a bed.
In fact, according to normal procedures, Lin Tao and Zhang Qianying's ex-husband should not spend the night here. Just because Zhang Qianying's ex-husband was too insistent, Li Jingguan found a "consideration" reason to let them all stay. After all, the whole matter was not yet clear.
You can't let them go home, it will be troublesome if you can't find them by then.
It can be said that Zhang Qianying's ex-husband suffered the consequences of his own deprivation. He had no food and no water to drink. It is also true that evil people bring their own troubles.
