Chapter 1167 Seeking Help (Two Chapters in One)

Lin Li said goodbye to Xia Qing and her daughter, and walked quickly to the parking place in the distance.

Because the car was parked under a tree, there were many leaves on the hood.

Lin Li swept the leaves off the hood, then opened the door and got in the car.

Just as he fastened his seat belt, the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.

Lin Li took out his phone from his pocket and found that it was a message from Su Yue.

"I'm here, are you out?"

"I'm about to go out, wait for me, I'll be there soon." Lin Li replied to the message, put away his phone, started the car and left the community.

Xia Qing saw Lin Li's car disappear, retracted her gaze, and looked down at her daughter who was playing with the little white cat and the little black cat.

"Tongtong, I'm going home to cook dinner now, don't play too long downstairs."

"Okay, mom." Zhou Tongtong responded.

Xia Qing left and took the helmet and schoolbag handed over by her daughter.

Zhou Tongtong took the little white cat and the little black cat to sit on the grass in the green belt. She stretched out her little hand, touched the chins of the little white cat and the little black cat, and then talked about what happened in the school in the afternoon.

When the two little guys heard Zhou Tongtong say that the investigator came to the school, their eyes were full of curiosity.

They knew what happened in Zhou Tongtong's school before. Now the investigator appeared in the school again, and it is very likely that the same thing will happen again.

"The teacher hasn't said what happened." Zhou Tongtong shook her head.

The little white cat said, "Meow... Xiao Hei and I will go to your school to investigate in the evening to see if we can find the reason."

The little black cat squatting on the side nodded. Anyway, they were idle at night, so they might as well go to Zhou Tongtong's school to help investigate.

"Will there be any danger?" Zhou Tongtong said worriedly.

"Meow... If there is any danger, we will run away in advance, you don't have to worry." The little white cat said.

The little black cat echoed, "Meow... We are very powerful. If there is any danger, as long as we pay attention to precautions, nothing should happen."

Zhou Tongtong listened to what the two little guys said, and seeing that they were so confident, she nodded slightly.

Su Yue, who is slim and beautiful, stood on the side of the road playing with her mobile phone.

As long as passers-by pass by her, regardless of gender, the rate of turning back is as high as 100%.

"Hey."

The voice of greeting suddenly sounded, and Su Yue, who was playing with her mobile phone, raised her head and looked at it. When her pretty face saw the other person's appearance clearly, she immediately smiled charmingly.

"You are here!"

Lin Li came to Su Yue, "You have been waiting for a long time!"

"I haven't waited for a long time..." Su Yue replied with a smile.

"I'm so hungry, let's go to the store quickly." Lin Li said while walking towards the restaurant not far away.

Seeing this, Su Yue stepped up to catch up, and the two of them walked and talked on the road and soon entered the restaurant.

This self-service hot pot restaurant has been open for a long time. Every time when it is time to eat, there are always many people in the restaurant.

Lin Li and Su Yue paid the bill, then found an empty table and sat down to order dishes.

Soon, the waiter in the restaurant brought many ingredients.

"I haven't eaten here for a long time. The variety of ingredients in the restaurant seems to have increased a lot." Su Yue put the ingredients on the table into the small hot pot, recalling the experience of eating here before.

"I just looked at the menu carefully. It is indeed as you said. The restaurant has added many new ingredients, about a dozen kinds!" Lin Li said with a smile.

Then, he also took a portion of ingredients and poured it into the small hot pot in front of him.

When dining here, everyone will be equipped with a small hot pot. Although it is a small hot pot, the caliber of the hot pot is not small. Normal people will be full after eating two or three pots.

In addition to fresh ingredients, there are many delicious cooked foods. It only costs 39 yuan for a single person to eat, which is very affordable.

Lin Li and Su Yue were eating and chatting. He suddenly heard Su Yue mention what happened in the school in the afternoon, and he was stunned for a moment.

"You said that the investigators found that a very strong psychic fluctuation suddenly appeared in the school, so they asked the teachers and students of the school to gather in the playground in the afternoon to investigate the cause?"

"Yeah." Su Yue nodded in response, then took a sip of the glass of juice on the table.

Lin Li looked at the other party thoughtfully, and said in his heart, "The source of the psychic fluctuation is most likely from Su Yue. It is normal that the investigators could not find the source of the psychic fluctuation."

"Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something dirty on my face?" Su Yue put down the glass after drinking the juice, and found that Lin Li was looking at her strangely, and couldn't help asking.

"You have a grain of rice stuck here." Lin Li raised his right hand and pointed at the corner of his mouth.

Su Yue heard it and then touched the corner of her mouth. There was really a grain of rice.

She just ordered a small portion of egg fried rice, and it was sticky when she ate it.

"You should have said it earlier if you saw it!" Su Yue put the rice grain into her mouth and scolded.

"I just saw it too." Lin Li responded with a smile.

Because of this interruption, Su Yue turned the page on the topic of what happened in school in the afternoon.

Lin Li poured some peeled shrimps into the small hot pot. He thought for a while, put down his chopsticks and stood up.

"What are you going to do?" Su Yue asked.

"I'm going to make a dipping sauce, do you want it?" Lin Li said.

"Yes, remember to add some chili to my dipping sauce." Su Yue reminded.

"Got it." Lin Li nodded, and then walked to the place where the dipping sauce was placed.

"Dinglingling..."

Lin Li had just left when his mobile phone on the table suddenly rang.

The crisp ringtone caught Su Yue's attention. She reached out and picked up Lin Li's phone, and saw the name displayed on the phone screen at a glance.

"Liu Jialin?"

This name is obviously a girl's name, and Su Yue doesn't know the other party.

Lin Li was preparing the dipping sauce, and his shoulder was suddenly patted by someone behind him.

He turned around and saw Su Yue holding his phone in his hand.

"Someone called you." Su Yue said, handing the phone out.

"Hello?" After Lin Li took the phone, he immediately tapped the screen with his finger to answer the call.

"Lin Li, are you convenient to answer the phone now?" Liu Jialin was in the office, and after the call was connected, she heard some noisy sounds.

"I'm eating, it's not inconvenient to answer the phone. What do you want?"

"It's like this, I have to lead a team to fight a group of criminals tonight, I want to ask you for a favor, I don't know if you are free."

Su Yue on the side pricked up her ears to eavesdrop, but unfortunately the surrounding environment was very noisy, she couldn't hear clearly what Liu Jialin said to Lin Li.

"Do you want to stay up all night?" Lin Li asked.

He was also thinking about getting up early tomorrow to go to the spirit world to find the Xuanling grass. If he had to stay up all night to help Liu Jialin, he would have to seriously consider whether to do her a favor.

After all, Qin Muqing didn't have much time left, and it was more important to find the Xuanling grass to extend her life.

"It doesn't take a whole night, it should be done before 12:30." Liu Jialin said.

"That's good, where should I meet you?" Lin Li asked.

Liu Jialin smiled when she heard Lin Li agreed to help, and then told him the address to meet.

After ending the call, Lin Li was about to put his phone back in his pocket when he saw a pair of curious eyes staring at him.

"Ask whatever you want to ask, don't keep staring at me like this, it's scary." Lin Li joked.

"What's so scary? Do I look scary?" Su Yue heard this and immediately gave Lin Li a coquettish look. Then she asked in a nonchalant tone, "Is the person who called you your friend?"

Lin Li prepared his own dipping sauce and began to prepare the dipping sauce for Su Yue. Hearing the question asked by the other party, he smiled and answered, "Yes."

"What does she do? How did you know each other?"

"She is an investigator. I happened to meet her when I was on a mission. I helped her a little, and then we got to know each other."

"Oh." Su Yue said, "I haven't heard you mention her before."

"What's there to mention?" Lin Li said nonchalantly.

"She is an investigator!"

"What's wrong with being an investigator? She still has two eyes, a nose, and a mouth. She is not a supernatural being."

Lin Li picked up the prepared dipping sauce and returned to the dining table with Su Yue.

After the two sat down, Su Yue's bright eyes flickered for a moment, and then asked.

"She just called you. Did she want to ask you to go out and play together?"

Lin Li scooped up the cooked shrimp from the small hot pot with a colander, picked up the shrimp with chopsticks, dipped it in the freshly prepared dipping sauce and put it into his mouth.

The delicious taste of the shrimp and the dipping sauce are delicious and memorable.

"No, she is leading a team to arrest a group of criminals tonight and wants me to help her." Lin Li said vaguely while eating.

"You have been busy for the past two days. You just got home and have to go out again tonight. It's too hard! Don't tire yourself out."

"Fortunately, I don't feel tired now, so I won't be tired to the point of falling down."

"Be careful when you arrest criminals, don't get hurt." Su Yue said with concern.

"Don't worry, I'm not an ordinary person now, I'm not that easy to get hurt." Lin Li said with a smile when he saw Su Yue's worried look.

…………

In the quiet office of the Superpower Management Bureau, Liu Jialin finished the call and thought that the arrest operation tonight was stable.

The door of the office was pushed open, and Zhang Xiao came to Liu Jialin with a takeaway in her hand.

"Captain, this is your takeaway."

"Thank you."

Liu Jialin took the takeaway, unpacked it, and started to eat dinner.

Zhang Xiao pulled out a chair and sat down, and began to unpack the takeaway to eat.

The two wanted to change their taste, so they didn't have dinner in the cafeteria tonight.

As they ate and talked, Zhang Xiao suddenly talked about tonight's arrest operation.

"Captain, the guys we are going to arrest tonight are very cunning. The manpower assigned to us by the bureau seems to be a little insufficient. When the arrest operation starts, I am afraid that there will be a few fish that slip through the net in the end."

Liu Jialin put a piece of tempting barbecued pork into her mouth, chewed it slowly, and then drank a mouthful of tomato egg soup with oil floating on it.

"I have considered your concern, so I asked someone to help and let him act with us tonight."

Zhang Xiao initially thought that Liu Jialin was looking for help from other colleagues in the bureau, but the bureau has been very busy recently and no one has free time.

"He's not from the bureau, he's a friend of mine..." Liu Jialin said with a smile, she didn't say Lin Li's name directly.

Zhang Xiao is not stupid, after hearing Liu Jialin say that he's not a colleague from the bureau, but a personal friend, she immediately knew who the other person was.

"With Lin Li's help, the pressure of arresting tonight can indeed be greatly reduced."

"Yes! So in the arrest operation tonight, we must catch those guys in one fell swoop." Liu Jialin said.

That group of criminals has been very arrogant recently, and they boasted that even if the investigators of the Ability Management Bureau came to arrest them, they would not be able to do anything to them.

Liu Jialin has always dealt a heavy blow to the criminals who despised the Ability Management Bureau, thinking that tonight she would let those guys know why the flowers are so red.

A moment later, the two finished their takeaway, cleaned up the garbage, and then began to prepare to set off.

Although it was still early to start arresting the criminals, Liu Jialin wanted to wait in advance.

Two police cars of the Ability Management Bureau drove out of the gate and quickly headed to the target location.

In the past, when there were enough people, the number of people involved in the arrest operation was nearly doubled.

However, the Ability Management Bureau has a lot of places to use people recently, so the number of people Liu Jialin led tonight is much less than before, which forced her to find other people to help in order to ensure that the arrest operation can be completed perfectly.

"Burp."

In the lively restaurant, Lin Li, who had eaten and drunk enough, burped.

At this time, a pair of slender hands appeared in front of him and poured the peeled crayfish into his bowl.

"Why did you peel so many crayfish for me again?"

"Don't you like to eat? That's why I peeled so many crayfish for you, eat it quickly!"

"I'm full."

"Why didn't you say it earlier? It's going to be wasted now." Su Yue sighed.

"That's not the case. There aren't many crayfish. I can still eat them all." Lin Li said, picking up the crayfish that Su Yue had peeled and poured into his bowl and put it into his mouth.

Su Yue saw that Lin Li had eaten all the crayfish that he had peeled for him, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly, outlining a curve that made people fall in love with him.

Not long after, the two people who had finished dinner walked out of the restaurant.

The street was very lively, especially this street had many restaurants, and many people came here to eat.

At this moment, looking around, you can see many guests who are full and satisfied and chatting with laughter.

"Huh..."

The temperature dropped many degrees at night, and a sudden autumn wind blew, causing many people to shrink their necks immediately due to the cold.

At this time, Lin Li looked at the white scarf around Su Yue's neck, and recalled that he did not remember Su Yue having used this scarf before, so he asked.

"If I remember correctly, you did not seem to have this scarf before. Did you buy it recently?"

Su Yue raised her white and tender hands and tidied her hair that was messed up by the wind. When she heard what Lin Li said, she responded with a smile.

"I just bought it recently, but I didn't buy it myself."

"Who gave it to you?"

"My mother."
