Rebirth of the Flying Era

Besides, this wasn't a big case. Niu Wentao was just going through the motions, so he couldn't make things difficult for Du Fei.

After finishing recording, the middle-aged police officer took Niu Wentao to check the bicycle and the gate of the courtyard before leaving.

Seeing the police leaving, everyone dispersed.

Xu Daimao and Lou Xiao'e were dressed neatly and said they were going back to Lou Xiao'e's natal home to see her parents.

Du Fei walked to the backyard alone, and when he turned around, he saw Qin Huairou standing with Auntie.

The pretty widow didn't watch the excitement, but she peeked at Du Fei. When she saw that he was looking at her, she quickly glared at him and looked away.

Du Fei chuckled and went straight back to his home, but as soon as he walked into the backyard, he saw Li Shengli standing at the door of his house, shrinking his head and looking out.

Seeing Du Fei, Li Shengli hurriedly came up to him, squeezed out an awkward smile and said, "Du Fei, what's going on outside? I heard the police are here?"

Du Fei saw his eyes flashing, especially when he mentioned the police, as if he had a guilty conscience.

I wonder what happened to the Li family and the Zhang family?

Since the last meeting at the mutton soup restaurant, Jiang Donglai has no faith.

Du Fei didn't know how far he had gone in his investigation.

However, looking at Li Shengli's behavior, the Zhang family is not a good person. According to previous speculations, the Li family has obviously obtained the leverage of the Zhang family, but Li Shengli's performance in blackmailing seems to be very unsuccessful.

Du Fei was thinking a lot, but on the surface he was a bit gloating about his misfortune, telling the story about the third uncle losing his bicycle wheel.

After hearing this, Li Shengli breathed a sigh of relief and turned back home.

Li Guoqiang and Aunt Li were both in the room, and there was also a young man in his mid-twenties who was Li Shengli's brother-in-law.

Before Li Shengli could speak, Aunt Li hurriedly asked: "What's going on? Why did the police come?"

Li Shengli knew it was okay and said carelessly: "Mom, I see you are in a hurry. It has nothing to do with our family. It was the three old men in the front yard who had the wheels removed."

Aunt Li and Li Guoqiang both breathed a sigh of relief.

Brother-in-law Li Shengli said: "Dad, I just said that the old Zhang family did not dare to call the police. If they really go to the police station, their family problems will be even more serious."

Li Guoqiang sighed: "That's what I say, but I'm afraid they will jump over the wall in a hurry! Our family has given away 200 yuan, just in case..."

Li Shengli continued: "Dad, what's the use of talking about this now? Jiang Dong..."

When he was about to say Jiang Donglai's name, Li Guoqiang glared at him and scolded him: "I've told you several times, don't nominate!"

Li Shengli pursed his lips and said: "I mean, if they arrest everyone, we will definitely not get the money back. Now we can only succeed, not fail! There is no such thing as a chance."

Li Guoqiang looked at his indifferent son, but this time he said something humane.

At this time, Aunt Li interrupted: "Head of the family, do you think the Zhang family is still refusing to give us money? Are we asking for too much?"

Li Guoqiang frowned.

Li Shengli's brother-in-law said, "Mom, I asked someone to find out. Before liberation, the Zhang family was a well-known big family in Hequ County, Shanxi Province! How could they have no money? Maybe those gold and silver treasures are buried somewhere."

Li Shengli also followed suit and said, "No! Our family only needs two thousand yuan, so it's an advantage for them!"

Aunt Li sighed, even more confused.

But Li Guoqiang gritted his teeth and slapped the table: "What the hell! This Shanxi old man will not shed tears until he sees the coffin..."

Meanwhile, at Duffy's house.

I made a cup of malted milk and ate the leftover boiled eggs from yesterday as breakfast.

Du Fei chewed the eggs and was still thinking about the basement he discovered last night.

Unfortunately, there are so many people in the courtyard, so it’s not easy to get things quietly!

He thought about it and saw that it was past ten o'clock.

I made an appointment with Zhu Ting and the others today to meet directly at Quanjude at eleven o'clock.

Eating roast duck is not like eating anything else. In other restaurants, the serving time is only about ten minutes.

When I went to Quanjude to eat roast duck, I had to wait more than half an hour to get it freshly roasted in the store, so I had to order it in advance.

The road from his home to Quanjude on Qianmen Street was not close.

Du Fei had no idea, so he simply stopped thinking about it, made his own arrangements, pushed his bicycle and left the courtyard.

After exiting the alley and heading south, instead of taking the main road, we followed the small streets and alleys and soon arrived at the Tongzi River outside the Forbidden City.

Go south along the Tongzi River, cross Nanchizi Street, turn onto Chang'an Street, and then go south to Tiananmen Square...

When you reach Qianmen Street, you can see Quanjude's facade from a distance.

I found a place to park my bike and got a ticket from the car watcher.

I glanced at my watch, it was ten minutes to eleven o'clock.

It is estimated that Chu Cheng has arrived. As for Zhu Ting and Zhou Xiaoli, it is hard to say.

Du Fei took two steps and was about to arrive, but found that many people were crowding around the entrance of Quanjude.

It didn't look like there was a fight or trouble. Taking advantage of my height, I found a step and stretched my neck to look inside.

I saw a middle-aged man in a Chinese tunic suit and black-rimmed glasses, accompanying two foreigners to the store, surrounded by about a dozen followers in casual clothes.

Du Fei knew clearly that there were foreign guests coming. He didn't know which country they were from, but they looked like they were from Eastern Europe.

He didn't pay much attention and looked around for Chu Cheng and Zhu Ting.

But Du Fei was tall, and he stood on the steps, two heads taller than the people around him. Before he could find Chu Cheng, he let Chu Cheng see him first and shouted: "Hey, Lao Du is here!"

Du Fei turned around and saw that Chu Cheng was also dressed like a dog today, and was wearing a military green general's woolen coat.

He was not wearing a hat in the cold weather, and his half-long hair was barely combed into a three-quarter length, and he seemed to be wearing hair oil in a coquettish way.

Zhou Xiaoli stood next to him, with two braids draped over her shoulders. She looked particularly youthful and beautiful with red lips and white teeth.

Du Fei didn't think much and immediately went up to meet him. As he got closer, he found that there was something wrong with the atmosphere between the two.

Du Fei's eyes shifted from Chu Cheng to Zhou Xiaoli, and then back to Chu Cheng. He half-smiled but said, "What's going on with you two? Are you trying to form a deeper revolutionary friendship?"

When Zhou Xiaoli heard his teasing, her cheeks immediately turned red.

Chu Cheng giggled, but was patted by Zhou Xiaoli coquettishly.

Du Fei said: "You two, please pay attention. I'm still single. Don't flirt in front of me. It will make you feel confused."

Zhou Xiaoli blushed even more, glared at Du Fei, lowered her head and cursed in a low voice: "A dog's mouth cannot spit out ivory."

Du Fei took the opportunity to cast a questioning look at Chu Cheng.

But Chu Cheng just giggled as if he had eaten a brain fragment.

Fortunately, Zhu Ting also saw the three of them at this time, walked over and said: "You are here~"

When Du Fei turned around, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Zhu Ting actually wore a bright red waist-length long coat today, carrying a leather bag on her shoulders, and a mink fur hat of the same color. From a distance, she looked like a blooming begonia flower.

In this era when people generally dress in "black, blue and gray", Zhu Ting is like a bright color, suddenly breaking into the world of black and white.

Even though Du Fei was used to seeing beautiful monsters before traveling through time, he couldn't help but feel amazed at this moment.
