In the Yau Ma Tei Police Station, Tannen hesitated for a few seconds at the door of Qiu Sushan's office before reaching out and knocking tentatively.
Qiu Sushan's hearing was very good, and she responded loudly from inside the office:
"ein."
Tannen pursed his lips, then pushed open the door, poked his glasses, and smiled.
Qiu Sushan put down the documents in her hand, raised her head and raised her eyebrows at him.
Tannen sat down and chatted with Qiu Susan for a long time. Madam finally couldn't stand it anymore:
"What's the matter, Inspector T?"
Tannen smacked his lips and then asked: "I have been in the UK for many years and I am not very familiar with the situation in Hong Kong. I want to invite someone to dinner, very formally, to show my sincerity. Which restaurant is better?"
Qiu Susan raised her eyebrows even higher, "A lady?"
Tannen thought about it, Yi Jiayi was of course a lady, so she nodded.
Qiu Susan smiled knowingly, rummaged on the table, found a business card, and copied the address and phone number on it into a notebook. With a wave of his hand, he tore off the piece of paper with the information recorded on it, and slapped his arm across the desk in front of Tannen, smiling and saying:
"This restaurant is definitely within your reach. Good luck, Tannen."
Tannen took the paper and looked at the address. It was in the busy city of Causeway Bay, and it looked like it should be really good.
Nodding, Zheng Zhong put the paper away, and he stood up, thanked her, and was about to leave.
Qiu Sushan couldn't help but complain in her heart. Scholars are really weird in doing things. Before asking her for advice, they were long-winded and didn't get to the point. Now that they have asked for advice, they didn't even say a word of greeting, and turned around and patted their butts and were about to leave.
"Inspector T, which lady are you inviting?" She couldn't help but ask with a smile.
"Officer Yi Jiayi." Tannen turned around and thought for only two seconds before naming the target person.
"~" Qiu Susan showed an ambiguous smile, and then she didn't say anything else. She just nodded and waved to Tannen as a farewell.
Looking at the back of Inspector T leaving, Qiu Susan leaned in the chair and couldn't help laughing.
Tannen was very frank. He didn't hide anything about this matter and admitted it directly.
Does this expert who returned from studying abroad know the situation in Hong Kong? He told her now, but she can't guarantee that she will let the whole police force know about it.
Ha, but his vision is very sharp.
I don't know how many single men have been staring at him for a long time, but T acted really quickly.
...
...
In the evening, when it was almost time to finish work, Jiayi took Brother Yue's car back to the police station. As soon as she entered the door, she cooperated with Qiu Susan to finish the Zhao Dongsheng case.
When he ran to Yanjie's office to get the file, he actually saw Yanjie and Inspector T drinking tea and gossiping...
Tannen's speed of integrating into the police station was very objective.
After saying hello, Jiayi began to check the documents one by one in Yanjie's file record book. After confirming all of them, she stood up and prepared to leave, but Tannen called her.
The two of them said goodbye to Yanjie and Hongcha together. When they turned up the stairs, Tannen hesitated for a while before asking:
"Can you please have dinner together?"
He was very nervous. Although the two of them were quite harmonious at work, Tannen had just entered the pure workplace environment from the campus environment. He was not sure whether Inspector Yi Jiayi would be willing to make friends with him privately after leaving the workplace environment of the police force.
Even if she refuses, it is normal.
He has heard of many friends who get along well at work, but when one party invites the other party to have private social activities outside of working hours, they are rejected. He is also a little worried that he will fall into such an embarrassing situation.
So as soon as he opened his mouth, he showed an embarrassed expression before Jiayi replied. Jiayi
was surprisingly straightforward. She looked back at him and said, "Okay."
Tannen breathed a sigh of relief.
When it was time to finish work, he immediately waited outside the office of Team B. As promised, Yi Jiayi put on her coat and said goodbye to the detectives of Team B. She strode away with vigor and walked out of the police station with Tannen.
They got on a red taxi and headed straight to Causeway Bay.
They chatted about the scenery of Hong Kong on the way, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious, until they pushed open the door of the restaurant, and Tannen told the waiter that he had made a reservation in advance. The moment he was invited to his seat, Tannen's expression finally began to be a little bit excited. The
restaurant recommended to him by Qiu Susan was not a formal ordinary restaurant at all.
The lights here are dim, and the tables are lit with dim wax lights. Combined with the hazy restaurant color scheme and soft background music, each small table is turned into an ambiguous private space.
It's basically a dating sanctuary!
When Tannen sat down, his hair stood on end.
Fortunately, Jia Yi looked normal, as if she was completely indifferent to this atmosphere.
Poking his glasses, Tannen gentlemanly pulled out the chair for Jia Yi, and then went around to his own seat and sat down.
The waiter recommended the most popular dishes in the restaurant, and Tannen did not hesitate to order the special ones.
Jiayi looked around and couldn't help but regret in her heart, if only she had a smartphone at this time, she couldn't take photos and selfies when eating in such an elegant and atmospheric place, so she could just come here.
Steak, red wine, violin, candles, the symphony of knife and fork collision, the intimate whispers of couples around, the light music brushing against the temples and ears...
In such an environment, people's five senses will be magnified, the expression of the person opposite, the freshness of the food in the mouth, the sourness of the red wine... will become particularly clear.
It is indeed a good environment for lovers to experience the sweet and sour taste of love.
However, when the waiter walked towards Tannen with flowers and a lovers' menu, wanting to ask if the man wanted to buy a bunch of flowers for his date, and if he wanted to order a violin performance to liven up their date,
the two people on the "date" pulled each other to the middle of the table, pushed aside their plates, each took out a small notebook from their pockets, uncapped their pens, and put their heads together to discuss something and take notes.
"?" The waiter's steps were slow, and he was in a dilemma for a moment.
The state of the two guests after dinner did not look like they were going to order some flowers, drink some wine, listen to a violin performance, and start "talking" about love with a bashful look on their faces.
After hesitating for a while, the waiter finally left with the flowers.
The waiters in restaurants like theirs are all trained before work. They know what to sell to customers in what atmosphere and when to deliver what to customers.
Now the customers are obviously having a serious discussion that he can't predict at all. It's obviously not a good time to send flowers and atmosphere. Next
, the waiter kept paying attention to the small table of Yi Jiayi and Tannen. Not only did the two of them not have a sour atmosphere of love, but... they turned the double table area in their restaurant into an office.
Ten minutes later, the waiter received a complaint from the guests at the next table and had to walk over to politely remind Tannen and Yi Jiayi to keep their voices down when discussing.
These two pretty boys and girls, just forget about love!
Why are you still talking so loudly about corpses and murderers?
You are disturbing others! ! !
A few minutes later, Tannen and Yi Jiayi finally ended their creepy discussion.
The waiter breathed a sigh of relief and walked over to help with the checkout. Yi Jiayi asked him to bring two lunch boxes.
The waiter was stunned for a moment before he realized that this lady actually wanted to take the leftovers away? !
This was definitely the first time in his career as a waiter at this restaurant that he had ever seen such a thing. How could a man or woman who went on a date at such an expensive Western restaurant take away leftovers? How could
that be reasonable?
Seeing Yi Jiayi calmly pack the over-ordered lamb chops and tiramisu, put them in her bag, and then say thank you with a big smile and walk away with the man who paid the bill, the waiter blinked and thought to himself with great certainty:
There is no hope for these two!
…
…
At the Yau Ma Tei Police Station, when Jiayi and Tannen left, the detectives from Team B were still working overtime.
Qiu Sushan finished her work with her bag and walked out of the office. She happened to meet Fang Zhenyue, who was holding a transfer order and was already a trainee inspector, walking from upstairs to the corridor leading to the B group office.
"Bye~" Fang Zhenyue waved the transfer order in his hand to Qiu Sushan and waved goodbye to her.
"Congratulations." Qiu Sushan said, and suddenly stopped and whispered with a gossipy face: "Do you know who Inspector T will take to the Love Sanctuary in Causeway Bay to eat Western food tonight?"
"..." Fang Zhenyue looked at Qiu Sushan for a second, then frowned, turned his head to look in the direction of the B group office, and said in a deep voice: "Eleven?"
He was away for a while, and his nest was stolen.
"As expected of you, Detective Fang Zhenyue." Qiu Sushan sighed with a smile, "B's daughter has grown up, you are happy." She
can rest assured to be promoted to inspector and transferred away.
Leaning against the wall of the corridor, she sighed like a mother sending her daughter to marry:
"Tannen is from a scholarly family, with a rich family background, and he is a returned overseas student. He and Shiyi both like criminal psychology, so they will definitely get along well. One is a sergeant and the other is an expert, so they complement each other. As a father, you should wait for a red envelope."
Fang Zhenyue, who was originally holding up the promotion and transfer order, lowered his hand, folded the transfer order, put his hands back into his trouser pockets, and leaned his left shoulder against the corridor wall, with an unpredictable expression.
After a long silence, Qiu Sushan sensed a strange atmosphere and looked at him. He then said in a deep voice:
"If you all like criminal psychology, you can get along well? You Zhaohua and you both like to eat meat, Uncle Jiu and Sister Yin both like to sit on a chair and drink tea, Diane and Brother Da Guangming both like forensic science, so you all get along well and want to get my red envelopes as a couple?" "
?" Qiu Sushan was slightly startled, rolling her eyes, and trying to figure out the true meaning behind Fang Zhenyue's series of expressions.
"I'm only 28, it's too early for me to be a dad. I'm going to London to take a short-term training course in criminal psychology in a week. I've already communicated with Sister Yin about the flight, hotel and other information. Remember to look for Sister Yin when you come back. Bye." After saying that, Fang Zhenyue walked towards Group B without looking back.
Qiu Susan turned to look at him. Why did this man's back seem to exude murderous aura?
...
...
Back in the office of Team B, Fang Zhenyue leaned against the desk and stared at the whiteboard in a daze.
Seeing Uncle Jiu putting on his coat and getting ready to go home, he suddenly remembered another document about Uncle Jiu that he saw from Mr. Huang today:
"Uncle Jiu, you can retire at the end of this year. How do you apply to change it to early next year?"
After putting on his coat and smoothing out the folds of his clothes, Uncle Jiu took off the small wooden stick on his ear. Hearing Fang Zhenyue's question, he also leaned against the desk, shoulder to shoulder with Fang Zhenyue, turned to look at Yi Jiayi's neat and clean desk, and chuckled:
"There is a little girl who is going to be promoted to a sergeant. When the time comes, I will help her for a few more months. It won't be too late for her to retire.
"After all, I'm the best at fake search warrants. "
Xu Shaowei has now passed the basic assessment, and he also passed the interview today. After completing the subsequent procedures, he will join Team B as a formal detective in two days.
Next, Madam will have to recruit another new detective to join the team, and the vacancies in Team B will be filled.
How would Uncle Jiu be willing to leave unless he sees Xu Shaowei become stable and confirms that another unknown newcomer is reliable? "
"..." Fang Zhenyue's expression relaxed and he patted Uncle Jiu's shoulder.
Unconsciously, everyone has become someone they care about.
"But you can rest assured. Eleven is growing so fast, and the way we get along has basically been coordinated by you. The new Xu Shaowei follows Eleven's lead. Even the Central Police Station has an acquaintance of Yi Shazhan, and the new Inspector T is also very convinced of Eleven.
"For Eleven, everything is ready except for the east wind."
Jiayi is now just waiting for the transfer order to arrive so that she can take off immediately.
Uncle Jiu smiled and patted Fang Zhenyue's arm. A few months have passed so quickly. Now, everyone has been promoted or transferred, and each has their own future and glory.
Thinking of this, Uncle Jiu wanted to pay his respects to Master Guan Er again.
Fang Zhenyue also smiled, and the sadness in his smile flashed away.
Sighing softly, leaning against the desk, tilting his head back and stretching his arms, Fang Zhenyue whispered:
"No, I'm not at all reassured."!
