Chapter 247 Bonus

The police got involved in the matter of the dwarf and soon got to the bottom of it. The situation was indeed as Lin Zhixian said. The dwarf was a habitual thief who hid in the restaurant to recuperate because of his injuries. When he saw Dadong using ghost money to exchange for money, he also had evil thoughts. Later, he went to cooperate with the restaurant's competitors. He hid in the restaurant to make trouble, and the competitors were responsible for adding fuel to the fire. If it weren't for Lin Zhixian, the restaurant would have been ruined no matter who came.

Of course, it was impossible for the tavern's competitors to admit to colluding with the dwarfs.

But Lin Zhixian didn't need to worry about these things, as the restaurant owner would take care of them. However, when Chang Chunning was rearranging the feng shui layout of the restaurant, Lin Zhixian went with him. Chang Chunning explained it to her on the spot, and she learned a lot from it.

After rearranging the feng shui, Lin Zhixian selected a good day nearby for the restaurant owner, personally performed rituals to exorcise evil spirits for the restaurant, and distributed amulets to diners on the spot.

Lin Zhixian was already famous in Causeway Bay. In addition, her popularity had soared during this period due to the Xuanmen Newcomer Competition, and the restaurant owner had been promoting her extensively. As a result, diners were quite convinced of her, and many diners came back that day.

By the evening, the place had basically returned to its previous state, and was even more lively than before. The restaurant owner was so happy that he smiled happily and gave Lin Zhixian and Chang Chunning big red envelopes.

After finishing the things here, more than half of a week has passed. Originally, Lin Zhixian wanted to go back to the island with Chang Chunning to concentrate on studying. Now, seeing that there are only two days left before the finals, Lin Zhixian gave up the idea and stayed at home with Chang Chunning to study. Every day is very fulfilling.

One day, I suddenly received a call from Xiao Jing: "Ms. Lin, are you free to come out for a visit?"

Lin Zhixian guessed that Xiao Jing was looking for her about Tan Yaohua's matter. She didn't want to go out at first, but then she remembered something and agreed: "Okay."

When they arrived at the meeting place, Lin Zhixian found that it was a tea restaurant with an elegant environment.

"I didn't expect Mr. Xiao to be so elegant." Lin Zhixian joked with Xiao Jing after sitting down.

Xiao Jing smiled and said, "I'm not picky, but I think you will like it. You can try the snacks here, I heard they are very good."

"Since you say it's good, then it must be good. Then I'll try it. After all, it's your treat and I don't have to spend my money." Lin Zhixian said with a smile.

"Yes, it's my treat." Xiao Jing laughed.

Lin Zhixian ordered a few signature snacks and tasted them. They were indeed delicious. He gave a thumbs up and said, "What Xiao Sir recommended is indeed good. Next time I will bring my mother over to taste it."

"As long as you like it." Xiao Jing said with a smile.

While eating, Lin Zhixian asked, "Why did you ask me out? You didn't want me to tell your fortune, did you? Is Tan Yaohua's case closed?"

"The case of Tan Yaohua was not closed so quickly." Xiao Jing said, "But the evidence that Tan Yaohua murdered his stepmother has been collected. Our work is basically done and we just need to submit it."

"Then why do you say it's not over yet?" Lin Zhixian was surprised.

"It's because foreign police found the organs of two deceased people in the basement of Tan Yaohua's overseas residence, and collected relevant blood there, confirming that it was the scene of the first crime. Now they are doing their best to collect evidence and contacting the Hong Kong police at the same time. The two sides need to communicate, but these have nothing to do with us anymore, and someone will be responsible for it." Xiao Jing said.

"Oh." Lin Zhixian was satisfied with the result: "Very good."

"It's all thanks to you." Xiao Jing looked at Lin Zhixian: "If it weren't for you, these dead people wouldn't have been redressed so wrongly. I'm afraid there would be more victims at his hands."

Lin Zhixian waved his hands and said, "It would be fine if I didn't know about these things, but now that I know about them, I can't just stand by and watch. I'm just doing my duty as a good citizen."

Xiao Jing couldn't help but laugh, then he took out an envelope from his pocket and pushed it to Lin Zhixian.

"What is this?" Lin Zhixian thought of a movie he had seen before: "You treat me as an informant and give me informant money?"

Xiao was amused by her: "It's not the informant's money, it's a bonus."

"Bonus?" Lin Zhixian's eyes widened.

Xiao Jing thought she looked like a cat, very cute.

Realizing what he was thinking, Xiao Jing coughed unnaturally: "In the case of Tan Yaohua, our police department took less than a week from digging up the body to identifying the suspect and finding evidence. We also caught a serial killer. It can be said that it was very fast and earned a lot of points for our police department in front of the public. So the higher-ups decided to reward us with a bonus. This one is yours."

Lin Zhixian took it out and counted it: "Five thousand yuan?"

Xiao Jing showed an embarrassed look: "Yes, it's a little less. But our bonus this time is not that much, only 20,000 yuan, and we have to share it with Aqi, Gu Hanluo and others, so I can only give you this much, please don't complain."

Five thousand out of the twenty thousand yuan were given to her, which was equivalent to giving her a quarter.

After all, there were five people in Xiao Jing's group. As the team leader, Xiao Jing should get the biggest share, and the other four, including Zhao Meiqi, would have to divide it equally, with each person getting two to three thousand at most. She only provided the information, and the rest of the hard work was done by Xiao Jing and his group. How could she have the nerve to get the biggest bonus?

Thinking of this, Lin Zhixian put the money back into the envelope and returned it: "I can't take this money."

Xiao Jing said, "Ms. Lin, you deserve this money. Unless you think it's too little."

"I'm not complaining that it's too little." Lin Zhixian shook his head: "I didn't contribute much, I shouldn't take so much. You can take it back and share it with everyone. I'm sure everyone must have worked hard investigating the case these days."

"It's true that we've been working very hard on the case these days, but if you hadn't provided the crucial clues, we wouldn't have been able to investigate the case so smoothly, so you deserve this money." Xiao Jing was very firm: "Besides, although we didn't get much money, it's also our credit that the case was solved. These will be recorded in our files, which will be very beneficial for our future promotions and salary increases. These are invisible benefits, and they are also what we value most, so you don't need to worry about anything."

Since Xiao Jing said so, Lin Zhixian accepted it.

"Okay then. I'll take it."

"Oh, right." Xiao Jing remembered, "Do you have anything to say to me?"

Lin Zhixian smiled: "I really can't hide it from Sir Xiao. This is what happened. A few days ago, I was fortune-telling for the owner of a restaurant and I discovered something by accident."

She told me about the villa: "I don't know if I'm being overly suspicious, I just feel like it's a little weird. But if you ask me what's weird about it, I can't tell you, so I thought I'd just tell you. If it's convenient for you, check it out. If it's not convenient, just pretend I never said anything."
