"Manager, someone said he knows you." Li Mishuang's voice was neither too loud nor too soft in the barbecue restaurant, just the right amount of clarity, as crisp as a silver bell.
Louis quickly noticed Xi Bin and others sitting in the center.
This was also Xi Bin's little idea, which could make Louis notice them quickly.
Seeing Louis looking at him, Xi Bin stood up quickly amid the puzzled gazes of the police officers.
"Hello, Comrade Lu!"
Xi Bin first shouted loudly, then walked forward respectfully, "I heard that Comrade Lu opened a barbecue restaurant here, so I came here specially to join in the fun!"
"I would especially like to thank Comrade Lu for his assistance in handling the case and solving the problem of missing people in Xijia Village! Thank you so much!!!"
Xi Bin bent slightly, walked to Louis, and in a few words explained the purpose of his visit today.
Louis waved his hand, very modestly: "That's nothing, look at what you said, well, you guys can eat as much as you want here, I'll give you free meals tonight!"
Louis waved his hand with great generosity.
Xi Bin coughed lightly and waved his hand: "No, no, no, how can we let Comrade Lu spend money on us."
"They have already paid." Li Mishuang said.
Louis showed a trace of embarrassment on his face, "How about returning the money?"
"......Look at what you said. Although I'm just a captain and can't compare to you, I'm not that short of this little money. Besides, the expenses for tonight will be reimbursed by the bureau!" Xi Bin explained with beads of cold sweat on his forehead.
Xi Bin looked at the young man following closely behind Louis, with a hint of confusion in his eyes.
Wen Zimo only became the team leader in recent years, and his jurisdiction was not adjacent to Du Xing's, so it was naturally difficult for Xi Bin to get to know Wen Zimo.
"Who is this?" Xi Bin asked.
Louis' lips moved slightly, and he was about to say something.
Wen Zimo replied, "I am a subordinate of Master Lu... My last name is Wen, and my given name is Zimo."
Louis nodded, "I just took office recently and brought my staff here to eat. You guys eat first, Zimo and I will go to the table over there to eat."
Xi Bin is certain in his heart!
Louis really got promoted!!!
It is true that one should look at a man with new eyes after three days of absence. He was working under Du Xing some time ago, and now he is an official.
When you said there was no shady dealings behind the scenes, Xi Bin simply couldn't believe it.
Isn't this bullshit?
Why did Louis get promoted?
There is only one reason, someone is giving him a hand from behind!
Thinking of this, Xi Bin's old face turned a little red with nervousness. He couldn't imagine how powerful the background behind Louis was.
After all, as for the things in the other world, he knew nothing except that people like Louis and Du Xing had special abilities.
But as the saying goes, unimaginable darkness is the real horror.
Xi Bin came this time just to make himself familiar. After all, he had no other intentions, he just wanted to make friends.
"Okay, Comrade Lu, ah no, Comrade Lu, I won't bother you anymore." Xi Bin changed his words to Comrade Lu and then withdrew to his seat in the center.
Louis smiled but didn't say much.
He patted Wen Zimo on the shoulder, and then he and Wen Zimo found a clean table and sat down.
Then we started chatting about all sorts of things.
At this time, Brother Snake in the corner was a little stiff. Although they were a little far away, Xi Bin's voice was loud and they heard every word of it.
The younger brother at the side said: "Brother Snake... we can't afford to offend..."
"Shut up, let me think about it. This guy is a little weird, but he doesn't look like someone from the bureau. He's wearing a black suit. Could he be a civil servant?"
“It doesn’t look like it.”
The younger brother at the side rolled his eyes and said, "Brother Snake, do you think the superior he mentioned is just a title?"
"Nonsense, if it's not a title, what is it?"
"No, no, no, I mean, it's a nickname."
"nickname??"
"Yes, yes, just like Brother Snake's nickname, Viper."
"Hiss—you are such a genius! Did you think of this?"
"Brother Snake, that's nothing. I've been praised for my intelligence since I was a child."
"Fuck you, I complimented you a few times, and you really took it seriously? Do you think it's possible? And the nickname, I don't believe you! But... Anyway, let's wait and see."
Time passes by every second.
Two hours later.
After Xi Bin and others had their fill of food and drink, they said goodbye to Louis and left.
The guests around gradually left one by one.
Only Snake and his gang, as well as Louis and Wen Zimo were left.
Wen Zimo was eating skewers and asked intentionally or unintentionally: "Inspector Lu, do you want me to slap the fly in the corner to death?"
Louis took a sip of beer and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Tonight's guests haven't all arrived yet."
Just at this moment.
The doorbell rang again.
A middle-aged man wearing a pitch-black suit and looking very tough, followed closely by a butler holding a gift box, and behind him was a beautiful frosty woman in a white dress with a mink fur on her shoulders.
Louis's expression was originally quite calm, until Ye Bingtang appeared, and a hint of unnaturalness appeared on his face.
Oh shit.
Lao Bidong, I can guess what you want to do just by using my toes?
He originally felt Ye Xiong's presence and thought it was the Hongmen Banquet, but he didn't expect it to be the "Hongmen Banquet"!
"Hahaha - Brother Lu, it's just a misunderstanding. It's just a small misunderstanding. Well, the time is 11:59 now."
"In one minute, it will be Brother Lu's birthday party."
"I've come specially to congratulate you! Are you surprised? Are you unexpected?" Ye Xiong seemed to have turned into a warm-hearted uncle next door, and thoughtfully placed the gift box in his hand on the counter.
