Chapter 100 Gangster Affair 37
The next morning, Su Ziyu accompanied Bai Zhengyang to the restaurant where they had gathered before, wanting to retrieve the surveillance video from the owner, but the owner was hesitant and made excuses.
Bai Zhengyang was upset and couldn't control his temper. He grabbed the boss' collar, but was stopped by Su Ziyu. He patted his arm and said, "Ayang, don't get excited."
Bai Zhengyang let go of his hand in dismay. Su Ziyu pulled the boss to a corner and took out a handful of red banknotes and stuffed them into his hand. "Boss, please be flexible. We just lost something and want to look for it."
The boss stared at the money and retreated with a painful look on his face. "Little brother, I don't mean to embarrass you. I really don't have any money! A group of people came yesterday and broke the surveillance equipment without saying a word. I couldn't stop them."
Seeing that the boss's expression was genuine, Su Ziyu did not ask for the money back and asked the boss to keep it for new equipment.
The boss immediately expressed his gratitude and asked someone to take out the damaged hard drive. "Look, I'm not the kind of person who likes to take advantage of others. This broken hard drive has what you want. It depends on your ability whether you can fix it." Anyway, everyone he asked said it couldn't be fixed.
Su Ziyu and Bai Zhengyang left the hotel and went to the crime scene.
According to the files sent to us, Team Qing was the first to be found dead next to a trash can on a street corner on the Third Ring Road in the city. Since there were no surveillance cameras or street lights there, it was a migrant worker who was working overtime late who discovered the scene and called the police.
Zhao Jia and Qian Yi were found a few streets away from the Qing team. Neither of them had any wounds on their bodies. After forensic examination, it was determined that all three died of alcohol poisoning, with needle marks found on their bodies.
The surveillance at the scene was also deliberately destroyed, and there were no useful clues. The case seemed to have reached a bottleneck here.
Bai Zhengyang learned from his colleagues that everyone is now working overtime to check the surveillance footage at the crime scene, trying to find some suspects with unusual behavior.
He and Su Ziyu focused on repairing the hard drive, but after visiting several stores, as soon as the people saw how bad the hard drive was, they immediately waved their hands and said they couldn't fix it.
Bai Zhengyang didn't want to give up, so Su Ziyu stayed with him all the time.
As it was getting dark, Su You suddenly called and said that they had been attacked, but he had driven away all the people and no one was injured.
Upon hearing this, Bai Zhengyang and Su Ziyu immediately rushed back home.
Shen Xiaoxiao was a little scared. When she heard some noise at the door, she immediately stood up and went to open it. Bai Zhengyang looked her over and was relieved to find that she was fine.
The four of them sat on the sofa in the living room, and the atmosphere was somewhat solemn.
Su Ziyu brewed a pot of tea and poured a cup for each person. Then he looked at Su You and asked, "Xiaoyou, what happened? Tell me the truth."
Su You's expression was not relaxed either. "Today, Xiaoxiao and I got off work as usual. Not long after we walked out of the kindergarten, I found someone following us, so I led them to a corner and beat them up. It seemed that those people were not coming for Xiaoxiao and me, but..."
He didn't finish his words, but his eyes looked at Bai Zhengyang.
Bai Zhengyang gritted his teeth in anger. Family was his bottom line. Those people actually wanted to threaten him through Xiaoxiao. It was simply unforgivable.
Shen Xiaoxiao glanced at the two brothers and asked cautiously, "Brother Zhengyang, Brother Su, did you offend anyone?"
Apart from this reason, she really couldn't think of any other reason.
Bai Zhengyang didn't want Shen Xiaoxiao to be dragged into these dirty things, so he didn't explain anything, but just ordered: "Xiaoxiao, you should continue to take leave during this period of time, and don't go out for the time being."
Xiaoxiao wanted to say something else, but Su Ziyu interrupted her and said, "Xiaoxiao, we will explain to you when this is over, but for now, just listen to Ayang!"
The more Bai Zhengyang thought about it, the more restless he became. He wished he could find the criminal gang right away. He asked about the location of the fight and the physical characteristics of those people. He sent the information to his colleagues, hoping it would be of help.
Su Ziyu was afraid that he would go out impulsively, so he had to use Xiaoxiao to tie him up, "Ayang, I'm taking Xiaoyou to the bar today, you stay and accompany Xiaoxiao!"
He is the manager of the bar now, so being late or leaving early is not a big deal. But he has not yet completely gained control of the bar, so it is still necessary for him to go to the bar every day to show his face and stabilize people's hearts.
Hearing his arrangement, Bai Zhengyang frowned. He had originally thought of going to the police station to help watch the surveillance footage at night. It was better than doing nothing.
Shen Xiaoxiao knew that Brother Su must have his own intentions when he said that, so she tactfully grabbed Bai Zhengyang's arm and said coquettishly, "Brother Zhengyang, my life depends on you!"
Before leaving, Su Zi looked back and saw that the two of them had already started tinkering with the TV.
Noticing Su Ziyu's gaze, Shen Xiaoxiao took advantage of Bai Zhengyang's inattention and secretly made an OK gesture to him, as if to say that she would definitely keep the person under control!
Su Ziyu went out and stayed in the bar for a while, listening to Wang Xi's report about Xiao Xie and that the bar was running low on alcohol and urgently needed to restock.
Su Ziyu thought about it and called Wei Qingming.
After the call was connected, he said concisely: "Where are you? Let's meet!"
Wei Qingming on the other end of the phone raised his eyebrows slightly. This was the first time that the other party took the initiative to ask him to meet. He immediately told him the place. After hanging up the phone, he immediately asked Assistant Meng to arrange someone to clear the area.
Su Ziyu drove here alone without Su You.
The place Wei Qingming chose was a western restaurant with an excellent night view, which was especially suitable for young couples to date. At this moment, the restaurant had been cleared out and Su Ziyu was led in by the waiter.
Amid the melodious sound of the violin, Wei Qingming waved at him and even stood up to help him pull out the chair. After he sat down, he went back and sat down opposite him.
The low-key lighting makes the candles on the table flicker.
After the waiter brought the exquisite and luxurious dishes to the table, he tactfully disappeared. But even so, the scene of two grown men eating a candlelight dinner face to face was still a bit weird.
Honestly speaking, if the person sitting opposite him was Bai Zhengyang, Su Ziyu would have been overjoyed. But now he had only one thought in his mind: he really wanted to put out the candles.
"What, you don't like it?"
Wei Qingming had been paying attention to his expression, but he didn't see the expected joy on his face. He felt a little uneasy, which was a new and strange feeling.
Su Ziyu rubbed his forehead, "Mr. Wei, don't you think this is very ambiguous?"
Wei Qingming was stunned, as if he had never expected him to say that. "I thought you knew that I was pursuing you."
Su Ziyu: ...Thank you so much.
He silently raised his hand to call the waiter and asked him to brighten the lights. The waiter stood there without moving, and after getting Wei Qingming's agreeable look, he turned and left.
When the lights came on, Su Ziyu immediately blew out the candle that represented ambiguity without mercy, "I came to you today because I have something serious to discuss..."
Before they could say anything serious, there was an index finger on their lips. Wei Qingming leaned forward slightly and said, "Zi Yu, let's eat first. It's not too late to talk about anything after we finish eating."
