Nie Zhao's face suddenly twitched, and he picked up his bowl and said, "Let's eat first."
Chen Rou was also hungry, and according to her habit, she didn't talk while eating, and she ate her food with soup and vegetables. When she picked up food, she only picked what was in front of her. She finished her meal in a whirlwind. She was also very polite, sitting quietly and watching Nie Zhao eat slowly and carefully until he put down his chopsticks and picked up his water glass before asking, "Who was that kind person?"
Nie Zhao pursed his lips for a moment and said, "I need to have a treatment first, and I also have a conference call. Come to my room at 10 p.m.
Kwong had prepared the medicine, but he had to take a shower first, and the meeting had to continue.
He longed to talk to his wife, to know how she could have such rough hands when he was out of his body, when her hair was white, to know why her complexion was so healthy, and what she felt when she wore a police uniform. He was innocent; he genuinely just wanted to discuss these things with her in depth.
But she clearly misunderstood, throwing the napkin on her lap onto the table and asking, "Have you seen 'Painted Skin'?"
Nie Zhao looked at Chen Rou. When she stopped standing timidly behind Mei Lu, trying to please everyone in the Nie family, including the servants, she was confident and radiant, shining like a luminous pearl.
The earliest version of "Painted Skin" was filmed in Hong Kong in the 1960s and was a huge hit. Nie Zhao watched it when he was very young.
He nodded: "I've seen it."
His wife leaned closer, deliberately baring her teeth and making a fierce face: "I am a painted skin, possessed by a ghost. At night, I will shed my skin and transform into a female ghost. Aren't you afraid?"
Nie Zhao actually had a sore buttock. After running around all day, he couldn't hold it in any longer by evening, and his face was twitching from the pain.
But the moment he showed a pained expression, his wife smiled smugly.
She genuinely believed he was frightened by her, a female ghost, and triumphantly tossed down her napkin and left.
...
At the same time, on the basement floor of the West Police Station of Hong Kong, under the dim yellow light, above the elevator, the red silk wrapping the peach wood sword moved slightly. The elevator door opened, and Yu Zhengrong and his father Yu Heng walked out side by side.
The two deliberately avoided the octagonal bricks laid on the ground and got into the car one after the other.
The police station set up a peach wood sword and drew a Bagua formation; only Hong Kong would do something so crazy.
But there was no way around it. Every year, several police officers would die in accidents at the Hong Kong Police Station. The Taoist priests would calculate that it was the work of evil spirits, so they had to suppress them. In the 1960s, the Hong Kong Police Station even held a grand ritual to exorcise the ghosts.
The ghost movie, based on the Hong Kong Police Force, was as popular in Hong Kong as the Young and Dangerous film series these days.
However, whether there is really something fishy going on, Inspector Yu and his father Yu Heng should know best.
The two got into the car one after the other. Yu Heng asked his son, "Flying car, Barrett sniper, there's a 90% chance that Nie Zhao killed Xiang Tiange. Which of his bodyguards do you think fired the shot?"
Clearly, they have uncovered the case and identified Nie Zhao as the suspect.
Yu Zhengrong said, "That silly-looking mainland guy in line is probably one of the three American bodyguards."
Yu Heng then asked his son, "Have you asked the TV station if Chen Rouzhen learned those few moves at the TVB training class? Gui Tou Chang said she slit the throats of three pirates in three minutes. Can the TVB training class teach such powerful moves?"
In the chaos of the fight in the park, it's unclear who shot the oil drum.
However, he had told Yu Zhengrong about Chen Rou killing three pirates in a row, and because Nie Jiayu refused to come to the concert, Yu Sir could only analyze Chen Rou's fighting ability based on the existing information.
He said, "My analysis is that Gui Touchang lost Nie Zhao and couldn't work with me. He had to explain to the US that he portrayed Chen Rou as very powerful. I've also heard Guang He and Guang Xu say that, according to Nie Jiayu, Chen Rou only had one or two defensive techniques."
The claim that Chen Rou only had one or two moves was made by Nie Jiayu, who was a simple-minded boy and his words were believable.
Yu Zhengrong believed it.
Yu Heng had met Chen Rou many times and, based on his existing knowledge, did not think Chen Rou would be any dangerous person.
Hearing his son say this, he felt it made sense, so he, like Yu Zhengrong, focused on the American bodyguards hired by Nie Zhao as the ones who had blown Xiang Tiange's head off, and paid close attention to them.
Of course, the arrangements for Saturday were also centered around those foreign bodyguards.
Even he was uncertain about what would happen on Saturday, so he couldn't help but complain to his son: "We can make a lot of money legally in Hong Kong. I really don't understand why you would cooperate with that bitch Mei Lu, harm Han Yuzhu, steal oil, and kill Nie Zhen and his wife. You've gone too far, and now it's hard to clean up the mess."
Yu Zhengrong was also in a bad mood and retorted to his father, "If you hadn't stirred up trouble in Kowloon to get the number one feng shui treasure land in the Persian cemetery, causing Master Er and Master Dong to almost issue a kill order against us, why would I have taken the risk to make dirty money? Wasn't I just trying to settle things for you?"
The fact that Inspector Yu was elected as the chief police officer by the public suggests that his family background can withstand scrutiny.
His family background is clean and honest, and he is not a greedy person.
There were reasons why he cooperated with Mei Lu, and these reasons were related to his father and the Hong Kong people's deep belief in feng shui and auspicious burial sites. Back then, they fought with Master Er, Master Dong, and others for a piece of auspicious burial site, resulting in the deaths of dozens of people. The bloodshed in Kowloon was like a river, but fortunately, the father and son were resourceful enough to suppress the matter.
Yu Heng retorted confidently, "What a joke! If I hadn't secured this auspicious burial site for your grandparents, would you have been able to marry such a wonderful wife as Ah Xian, or have such outstanding children as Ah Guang and Ah Xu?"
Yu Zhengrong gripped the steering wheel, his brows furrowed: "Don't you understand? The higher you climb, the harder you fall?"
