Chapter 667: Not Making Steamed Buns for a Good Face

Du Fei poured wine for Dad Zhu and said with a chuckle, "Dad, you are still worried about this little thing about me!"

Dad Zhu said, "You don't have to belittle yourself. There is nothing trivial about '629'. I met your Uncle Nie at a meeting yesterday and he even asked about you."

Du Fei was stunned for a moment.

Seeing his expression, Dad Zhu smiled and said, "You are considered a celebrity now~"

At this time, Zhu Ting came out of the kitchen carrying the second pot of dumplings and heard the second half of the sentence, "Dad, what celebrity are you talking about?"

Dad Zhu smiled and said, "Speaking of your Xiaofei, your Uncle Nie asked him yesterday."

Zhu Ting put down the plate and looked at Du Fei, "Is it just him?"

Due to this interruption, Du Fei didn't say anything about the case.

When the second pot of dumplings was served, Zhu Ma and Zhu Ting also took off their aprons.

Du Fei quickly stood up and pulled a chair for his mother-in-law to sit down.

It was the first time that Zhu's mother enjoyed this treatment, and she couldn't help but smile with joy.

Zhu Ting pouted and sat down by herself.

Wait for Du Fei to come back and pinch him secretly.

Du Fei just pretended that he didn't feel anything, but quickly picked up a dumpling for her with chopsticks...

After finishing the meal, Du Fei, Zhang Luo and Zhu Ting picked up the table and washed the dishes together.

But Dad Zhu stopped him, "Let Xiaoting do it~ Come on, go to the study and have a cup of tea with me."

Du Fei had no choice but to smile mischievously at Zhu Ting.

That means, don’t you think I won’t help? It’s your biological father and he won’t allow it!

In exchange for a look from Zhu Ting, she followed her into the study.

In the study, Du Fei consciously walked to the cupboard where the tea was kept, opened the door and asked, "Dad, what kind of tea do you want to drink?"

Dad Zhu sat down on the sofa and said, "Drink some tea today. There is Pu'er under the tea brick...it's the second compartment."

Du Fei knelt down and opened a small drawer inside, and took out a Pu'er tea brick.

Dad Zhu said again, "The tea needle is on the side. Have you ever tasted this kind of tea brick?"

Although Du Fei has never drank Pu'er tea, he has a lot of messy knowledge before time travel.

But sometimes I have to hide my clumsiness. I reached out and took out a metal awl from the grid where the tea bricks were placed. I turned around and said, "Dad, I have never drank this before. Please teach me."

Dad Zhu took the tea brick and tea needle, used the tea needle to open the wrapping paper of the tea brick, and spread it out on the coffee table.

After looking at the tea brick for a while, he inserted the tea needle along the side and gently pried it up twice.

Then insert the tea needle a second time along the gap that was raised just now.

This time I pried off a large piece and placed it in a tea cup.

While taking the hot water from the thermos bottle to wash the tea, Du Fei went to the kitchen to get freshly boiled water.

The tea brick must be made of freshly boiled hot water to bring out the aroma of the tea.

By the time Du Fei came back with hot water, Zhu's father had already finished washing the tea for the second time.

Then poured boiling water over it... well, Du Fei didn't notice any difference after drinking it.

Dad Zhu drank it with gusto.

He took the tea cup and poured the tea into two small cups. After drinking two cups in succession, he asked Du Fei how he felt.

Although Du Fei couldn't drink anything, he still praised it as "good tea".

Dad Zhu curled his lips, seeing that his son-in-law was not talking what he meant, and he didn't find fault with it.

……………………

After Zhu's father finished speaking, he looked at Du Fei, "You have some insights in this area. What do you think about this matter?"

Du Fei picked up the teacup, thought about it, took a sip and said, "Dad~, it's a good idea, but I think... don't expect any results."

Dad Zhu said calmly, "Well, go on."

……………………

Dad Zhu nodded.

……………………

In the evening, come out from Zhu Ting's house.

Du Fei was still thinking about the conversation he had with Dad Zhu just now.

I feel very sad that power seems wonderful, but in fact it is a bitter cup of wine.

The Analects of Confucius says that it is difficult to be a king, and it is not easy to be a minister. If you know that it is difficult to be a king, can you not make a country prosper with just one word?

Even a tough guy like Emperor Yongzheng once lamented, "It's hard to be a king."

That kind of pressure!

Du Fei just thought about it,

They all felt their scalps were numb.

Two days later, February 4th, the beginning of spring.

Although the entire project team went all out to carry out peripheral investigations, they still could not find the real Mr. Luo hiding in the dark.

This made Du Fei also start to waver.

There are only five days left until New Year’s Eve on the 8th.

Do we really want to postpone this case until later this year?

Du Fei began to consider whether to attack Zhang Xiaoqin directly.

The reason why Zhang Xiaoqin was not touched before was because Du Fei felt that her value was greater. After catching Mr. Luo, he still hoped to follow the clues and find the mysterious Mr. 'x'.

But now it seems that Zhang Xiaoqin's value has been somewhat overestimated.

At present, she is not qualified to contact Mr. Luo or Mr. ‘x’ directly.

She only came into contact with relatively high-level tool people like Jin Mingjuan.

So, birds of a feather flock together, and people flock together.

It shows that Zhang Xiaoqin herself is also this kind of tool person, but her level should be higher than Jin Mingjuan.

It seems impossible to expect her to be able to find the mysterious Mr.

But regarding Mr. Luo, Du Fei believed that she must know something.

The question now is back to ‘to catch or not to catch’.

If you want to catch it, you have to be quick!

Du Fei estimated that once something happened to Zhang Xiaoqin, Mr. 'x' would get the news soon.

In case he has other contact information with Mr. Luo.

Zhang Xiaoqin's side did not make rapid progress, and in the end no one on either side caught it, so they were left alone.

But in this matter, no one can help Du Fei make a decision, he must make a decision by himself.

After careful consideration, Du Fei finally made a decision - arrest!

If Du Fei had been transferred to the public security office, he might have been more patient and had a longer vision.

But on the day of the Little New Year, when talking to Zhu's father in the study.

Zhu's father let out a word that their temporary task force would be disbanded after the New Year.

Du Fei didn't know what was going on.

But one thing is certain, it can't be delayed any longer!

He has been busy in the task force for so long and has spent so much time and energy.

Seeing that there are clues, someone popped up to pick peaches, who would be willing to do this!

Du Fei simply went all out and decided to arrest Zhang Xiaoqin when she got off work on the afternoon of the 4th.

Specially avoiding residence and work is to delay the time of being noticed by the enemy.

In this era, there are no mobile phones, and information transmission is relatively slow.

Even if Zhang Xiaoqin acts as a "safety", the enemy cannot watch her 24 hours a day.

Generally, they would only guard two sides, either at work or at home.

If they were at work, they would not notice until Zhang Xiaoqin did not go to work the next day.

Even at home, Zhang Xiaoqin would leave work late due to some circumstances, and they would not be alert until at least midnight when she did not come back.

In the afternoon, in the office of the task force.

When Du Fei announced that he was going to arrest someone, everyone was excited.

These days, it was really a bit frustrating. We knew that the enemy was there, but we had no way to arrest him.

At this moment, when we heard that we were going to arrest someone, we were all ready to go.

Later, we found out that the person Du Fei wanted to arrest was not Jin Mingjuan, who had been locked in before.

But it was another woman who had never entered his sight.

But everyone did not say much.

Du Fei specifically reminded them, "Comrades, the person we arrested this time is very important. I hope everyone will show 100% of their energy and spirit. In addition..."

At this point, Du Fei paused, glanced at everyone, and said in a deep voice, "I have received news that our special task force will be disbanded after the New Year."

As soon as these words came out, it was like dropping a heavy bomb!

The dozen people present were all shocked, only Wang Canjun looked normal, but his eyes dimmed.

Obviously, he heard some rumors from Chu Hongjun in advance.

But he couldn't do anything about this kind of thing.

Du Fei continued, "If we don't make a fuss, we must win face and solve the case before the New Year!"
