Chapter 96 Acquaintance
As night fell, Nasser's camp was surprisingly lively. Due to today's bumper harvest, Vanessa, who has been distributing supplies in an orderly manner, finally agreed to relax the restrictions on alcohol and meat, and everyone drank and ate meat as much as they wanted. High-spirited singing wafted from the sky above the stronghold. The thieves put their shoulders on their shoulders, hooked their backs, and danced drunkenly one by one with wine glasses. It was a lively scene.
However, another protagonist of the show, Li Huailin, was sitting in a corner, drinking wine silently. Originally, this was a banquet where Gilbert introduced Li Huailin to everyone, but now because everyone is too drunk, they have completely forgotten about it, and it has become a wine competition.
"What's the matter, brother?" A voice came from behind Li Huailin, and Li Huailin didn't turn his head, because the person who had heard it was the leader Gilbert, "It seems that you don't like banquets."
"That's not true, it's just that I'm in a bad mood today." Li Huailin said after taking a sip of wine. I have to say that the system is really versatile enough, and this wine can really taste a little drunk.
"What's wrong?" Gilbert walked to Li Huailin's side while talking, "Want to chat with me?"
"No..." Li Huailin thought for a while and said, "I'll go back first."
"Okay, if you need anything, come to me anytime." Gilbert said with a smile.
Taking off the helmet, Li Huailin let out a heavy breath. Today he is in no mood to continue playing. I looked at the time, and it was exactly 7 o'clock in the evening. I thought I hadn't had dinner yet, so I just went out to eat something and relax.
A person walked out of the community, and just wanted to think about where to go for dinner, but it turned out that a person Li Huailin knew came to the front.
The person who came was an uncle in his thirty-five or sixteen years old. He was not tall, but he was quite burly. The face is a bit square, and his appearance is quite good-looking, but this person feels a bit sloppy, mainly because he still has a short beard on his face, and his hair feels messy and hasn't been washed for a few days. Even though it was a bit hot, the guy was wearing a beige jacket with a slightly discolored shirt underneath.
"Oh, Huailin?" The uncle saw Li Huailin and recognized him, walked over and said, "Going out? I was looking for you to drink."
"How can you drink at this time, Officer Zhang." Li Huailin smiled bitterly, "I haven't even eaten dinner yet."
"There is no law that prohibits drinking during dinner time. I have studied law, so don't fool me." Officer Zhang said with a smile.
"I know you have studied law, but I also know that you have almost forgotten it. I don't believe that you have read law books after you came out of the police academy." Li Huailin said.
"Don't underestimate me like this, although what you said is the truth." Officer Zhang said with a smile, "Anyway, are you going to drink?"
"Well... then let's go." Li Huailin thought for a while and said, "Where?"
"Oh?" Officer Zhang was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "My car is over there, let's go."
Following Police Officer Zhang to the parking garage of the community, it was the first time Li Huailin saw Officer Zhang's car, a Zhongfan 224 sedan produced in 21XX, a style ten years ago, it is outdated and cannot be outdated anymore, to be honest Li Huailin also feels honored to see such a car in this city now.
"This can't be a police car." Li Huailin said casually as the co-pilot.
"Of course it's a police car." Officer Zhang replied while wearing his seat belt, "There is a police light under your left hand, and it is a police car hanging on the top.
"
"I want to say that if this kind of broken car encounters some speeding bandits, can you catch up?" Li Huailin said.
"What is a broken car? This is my partner. He has been with me for ten years. I have known it longer than I have known you." Officer Zhang said.
"Okay, please send us to the bar with your partner, oh, I forgot that this guy hasn't been equipped with autopilot yet, you need to drive it yourself, right?" Li Huailin said.
"Let you see my partner's strength." Police Officer Zhang suddenly kicked the accelerator, and the whole car flicked backwards. After pulling the position, Officer Zhang immediately shifted gears, kicked the accelerator again, and the car rushed forward out.
"Your driver's license is definitely taken out by opening the back door. Dangerous driving like yours should be banned for life." Li Huailin said with a hand on his forehead.
"You know a knitting yarn, kid." Officer Zhang said with a smile.
"Okay...you can do whatever you want." Li Huailin spread his hands.
The cars on the street are basically self-driving. They drive smoothly and do not violate traffic rules. Only Li Huailin's car is rampant, but nothing happened along the way. About ten minutes later, Officer Zhang's car stopped. Parking lot in front of a small bar.
"Just here?" Li Huailin looked at the small bar in front of him. It was really small, really very small. It was just a small two-story building. It is estimated that the second floor is where the boss lives. Clothes hang. To be honest, this kind of small bar can still be seen in this modern city, Li Huailin is really an eye-opener today.
"Let's go." Officer Zhang didn't say much, and stretched out his hand for Li Huailin to follow.
After entering the door, what Li Huailin saw was a super retro bar. The whole bar was as small as Li Huailin expected. A bar can seat about seven or eight people, and then there are five tables. The atmosphere of the whole bar is not bad, it is a bit dark and moody, but there is an old-fashioned style everywhere.
There was no one in the whole bar. Of course, no one would come out to drink at this time, and it was not even past dinner time. Standing behind the bar was an old man, about sixty years old, thin and frail, dressed very vigorously, and was wiping a glass.
Seeing someone coming in, the old man habitually shouted welcome, then saw Officer Zhang and smiled: "It's not so early, Officer Zhang."
"Straight (straight whiskey), add one." Officer Zhang ordered smoothly.
"You thought it was noodles." Li Huailin couldn't help but said, "Give me Rock (whiskey and ice cubes)."
"Do you want to add one?" asked the old man.
"It's true that your sister has one plus one." Li Huailin sweated wildly, "Okay, then add one."
"Wait a minute." The old man nodded, then turned around to pour the wine.
Officer Zhang took off his coat, then rolled up his sleeves and sat on a chair at the bar, Li Huailin also sat beside him. Since neither of them asked for any difficult wine, two glasses of wine were handed over after a while.
"Come on, don't say anything, let's have a drink first." Officer Zhang raised his glass and said.
"I'm convinced of you. You can taste like a food stall when you drink in a bar." Li Huailin smiled wryly, raised his glass and touched Officer Zhang lightly, and then the two drank it down in one gulp.
"Troubleshooting." Officer Zhang said to the old man.
"It seems that I haven't seen you for a while, how long has it been? A month?" Li Huailin asked.
"Three weeks." Officer Zhang thought about it and said, "Taking care of personal affairs a little bit."
"I thought you guys forgot about me." Li Huailin smiled.
"How is this possible? How dare we neglect a dangerous person like you." Officer Zhang took a sip of his wine.
"Are you divorced?" Li Huailin suddenly noticed Officer Zhang's hand, and the ring on it had been taken off.
Police officer Zhang was visibly depressed, and his body trembled, but he recovered immediately: "Yeah... I just finished the formalities yesterday, and to be honest, I'm used to wearing rings, but now I feel a little unaccustomed to having less things on my hands." .”
"Is it related to me?" Li Huailin asked.
"It's a little bit. You know that I was transferred to that department and announced that I was expelled. Maybe this made Lan Ling have some opinions." Officer Zhang took a sip after finishing speaking, "She also returned the ring. gone."
"Why do you always send you here, can you change someone?" Li Huailin asked.
"I don't know why I'm the only one who didn't have an accident, can I ask?"
"Hmm...it's hard to say..." Li Hualin thought about it.
"So that's it." Officer Zhang smiled, "Stop talking about me, why are you in such a bad mood today?"
