"black market?"
Song Yangyu questioned her, and Xiaoli finally reacted. She covered her mouth tightly with regret.
Buying and selling things on the black market is illegal. If you are caught by the police and the circumstances are serious and the amount involved is huge, you will be convicted of speculation and will be sent to jail!
How did she accidentally let it slip again?!
Song Yangyu felt that the waiter in front of him was revealing more and more problems, and he didn't want to waste any more time:
"You don't need to explain to us. As for what kind of snake this is, the police comrades at the police station will naturally investigate it together."
"etc."
Shao Jingque, who had been working silently all this time, suddenly spoke.
She stared closely at Xiaoli, who had collapsed back to the ground in fear, with a dark tide in her eyes:
"How do you know that Lu Zhan and I haven't got a marriage certificate?"
Even Xiaolan, the waitress who received her and Lu Zhan for the first time, thought that they were going to get their marriage certificate early the next morning. So much time has passed, why was this waitress so sure that she and Lu Zhan did not get their marriage certificate?
Xiaoli's heart skipped a beat, of course, because she had seen Lu Zhan's household registration book.
Thinking of her household registration book, she subconsciously closed her coat pockets. Lu Zhan's household registration book was still in her coat pocket and she forgot to take it out.
Shao Jingque noticed this little action and his voice became even colder:
"What's in your bag?"
Xiaoli's face changed drastically, and she quickly covered her pockets tightly:
"No, nothing!"
Seeing that she looked nervous, Song Yangyu was worried that she might have some dangerous goods in her pockets. Without saying a word, he immediately stepped forward and grabbed her hands, handcuffing them behind her back. Xiaoli screamed in pain.
Shao Jingque acted as if he hadn't heard anything. He looked at the bulging edge of the thin work jacket, and an idea struck him. He ignored Xiaoli's yelling and took the thing out of her pocket.
It turned out to be Lu Zhan’s household registration book!
The moment she saw the household registration booklet, Shao Jingque's heart trembled. You know, these days she could only fall asleep in agony by holding Lu Zhan's household registration booklet in her arms every night. If it was really stolen by this waiter, she couldn't imagine whether she could still be as calm as she was now.
"This is Lu Zhan's household registration booklet, which is on my bedside table. Xiaolan, the waitress who helped me register at the hotel, can prove that it belongs to me. But now it's in your pocket, proving that you not only put a snake in my room, but you also stole things. We have witnesses and evidence. What else can you say?!"
Song Yangyu let go of his hand, stood up and glanced at the title page opened in Shao Jingque's hand. Sure enough, he saw the words "Lu Zhan" written in the household owner column. He lowered his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking at that moment.
When Xiaoli saw Shao Jingque walking downstairs, she panicked completely. She grabbed the edge of Shao Jingque's skirt with both hands and begged,
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry!”
"I really know I was wrong. I apologize to you. Please don't report me to the police. I don't want to lose my job or go to jail!"
"Please, forgive me this time. I won't do it again!"
Shao Jingque, whose heart was already burning with rage, had a dark light flashing in his eyes, and suddenly spoke:
"good."
Song Yangyu turned around in surprise, not expecting that she would agree to the waiter's request.
But Shao Jingque continued to speak in an unusually calm tone:
"Didn't you swear that this snake wasn't poisonous and wouldn't bite? Reach in, grab it, and show it to me, and I'll believe you. If it's just a prank, I can choose not to report it to the police."
As soon as these words were spoken, the little hope that had just risen in Xiaoli's heart suddenly burst like a bubble, and the smile on the corner of her mouth froze on her face.
Before Song Yangyu said that the snake was a highly poisonous Bungarus krait, she really thought that she had bought only a non-venomous Yellow-banded Snake.
But although she tried her best to defend herself just now, it was only to try to reduce the mistakes she made. In fact, she had already believed Song Yangyu's words in her heart. As a cadre of the Central Military Region, he would definitely not wrongly accuse anyone.
Now Shao Jingque wants her to prove that the snake is not poisonous before he lets her go, which is tantamount to waiting to see if she will be slapped in the face again.
Xiaoli was torn between her own conscience and her own desires. Either she muster up the courage and try her luck to reach in and catch the snake, or she would have to accept her fate and accept that the two men would report her to the police and have her arrested.
Of course she didn't want to be caught, but she wouldn't dare to risk being bitten and poisoned by catching a snake even if she had ten thousand guts!
Shao Jingque didn't intend to give her time to think, and directly put the bag in front of her, grabbed her arm and stretched it towards the bag.
Xiaoli was frightened by her sudden action, and screamed, shook her hand away, and shouted:
"I won't catch it! What if it really is a poisonous snake? Do you want to kill me?"
Shao Jingque's face, as cold as an iceberg, showed a hint of sarcasm. He looked at her as if she were a pile of garbage.
"Why didn't you think about this 'what if' when you threw the snake into my room?"
Xiaoli choked suddenly, her face turned red, and she couldn't say anything.
The farce came to an end after the police from the police station took Xiaoli away. After checking Shao Jingque's room, no other danger was found.
After this night of tossing and turning, Shao Jingque felt physically and mentally exhausted. The only fortunate thing was that he found Lu Zhan's household registration book in time.
She sat on a chair in the hall, lowered her head and carefully straightened the wrinkled corners of Xiaoli's clothes. She looked extremely serious and focused, and didn't even notice Song Yangyu walking up to her.
At this time, Song Yangyu had already learned about the relationship between Shao Jingque and Lu Zhan from other waiters. Seeing the persistence in Shao Jingque's eyes, he frowned slightly.
After a moment, he put on a relaxed expression and said:
"Comrade Xiao Shao, your room has just been checked by the public security comrades. There is no danger. You can go back to your room and rest."
Shao Jingque then raised his head, stood up and smiled at Song Yangyu:
"Thank you. I'm so sorry to have wasted your entire evening."
Song Yangyu smiled warmly:
"It doesn't matter. Serving the people is what we should do!"
Shao Jingque smiled faintly:
"Then you should rest early too."
After saying that, he turned around and prepared to go upstairs. Song Yangyu's voice came from behind him again:
"By the way, I didn't have time to answer you just now. My name is Song Yangyu."
Shao Jingque turned around in surprise, then remembered the conversation they had been interrupted at the beginning, and a faint smile appeared on his face:
"Okay, I understand. Thank you, Comrade Song."
Song Yangyu watched her disappear around the corner of the stairs with a smile on his face. He stood there thinking for a moment, then turned to the front desk and made a phone call:
"Hello, it's me."
"First, please cancel my train ticket to Henan Province the day after tomorrow."
