Chapter 760: Confession and Unfavorable Start (Two Chapters in One)
"Holy crap, they are really those wanted thieves!"
"These guys were seriously injured and could be taken away without being tied up."
"That young man actually has such strength, it's so amazing!"
"Everyone, stop chatting and take all these guys back to the Yamen..."
The detectives who came to the scene looked at the gangster lying on the ground, all with shocked expressions on their faces.
After a while of whispering, these detectives immediately put handcuffs and shackles on all the immobile gangsters.
Although these criminal thieves were all seriously injured under Lin Li's attack, they were unable to resist at this moment and could be taken away without any handcuffs or shackles.
However, for safety reasons, the detectives still followed the arrest process.
"We have taken these people away. You can come to the Yamen tomorrow to collect the bounty." The detective in gray clothes who had made a meritorious service said to Lin Li with a smile. Looking at his expression, you can tell that he is in a very good mood at the moment.
"Okay." Lin Li nodded and watched the agents leave.
When the gangsters and the police officers left, the noisy living room immediately returned to silence.
"call……"
"Those bad guys were finally captured."
The terrifying Jiangyang thief was taken away. Qin Muqing took a long breath and raised his hand to pat his high chest.
At this time, her nervousness completely relaxed.
"Gululu..."
His stomach made a slight noise. Lin Li, who hadn't eaten dinner yet, turned his head to look beside him and asked Qin Muqing, who was mumbling something.
"have you had your dinner?"
When Qin Muqing heard this, he immediately came to his senses and said to Lin Li, "I haven't eaten yet! I just made dinner and was about to eat, but those terrible Jiangyang thieves came."
"I haven't eaten dinner yet, go help me put a bowl of rice in it," Lin Li said.
"Uh..." Qin Muqing's plain face immediately showed a troubled expression when she heard Lin Li saying that they wanted to have dinner together.
"Didn't you cook more dinner?" Lin Li saw Qin Muqing's troubled expression and thought that he only cooked dinner for one person.
"That's not true, it's just that I made dinner relatively light for fear that you might not be used to it." Qin Muqing hesitated for a few times, and then said in a low voice.
"It doesn't matter if it's lighter. I'm very hungry now. Go and serve me a bowl of dinner!" Lin Li said with a smile, and then walked to the restaurant.
Qin Muqing looked at Lin Li's leaving figure, sighed slightly, and then went to the kitchen to serve rice porridge with a heavy heart.
"This..." Lin Li came to the living room and looked at the small bowl of white rice porridge, fried vegetables, and pickled radish on the table, and was speechless.
Just now Qin Muqing said that dinner was relatively light, but Lin Li didn't take it seriously.
Now that he saw the dishes on the table with no oil or water at all, it could be said that it was far beyond his expectation.
What are you doing! No matter how light it is, it can't be so light. There is no oil or water at all. How can my body bear it... Lin Li complained in his heart. At this time, there was a sound of footsteps behind him.
Qin Muqing was holding a bowl of white rice porridge in her hand. The bowl for herself was a small bowl, and the bowl for Lin Li was a large bowl.
"The dinner you had was too bland, not meaty at all. It's not good for your health... Are you trying to lose weight by eating like this?" Lin Li asked straightforwardly.
"Lose weight?" Qin Muqing placed the large bowl of white rice porridge on the table. Hearing Lin Li ask this, he was stunned for a second, and then shook his head.
Lin Li looked up and down at Qin Muqing, who had a graceful figure, and thought to himself, "This figure is very good, and it is just a little worse than that foul woman Su Yue. There is no need to lose weight at all."
Qin Muqing saw Lin Li looking at her, her face slightly flushed, and her slender fingers couldn't help but tangle together, showing that she was not calm at the moment.
"Cough." Lin Li noticed that Qin Muqing's face was slightly red. After coughing slightly, he stopped discussing the topic.
"Go and scramble a plate of eggs for me."
"There are no eggs at home." Qin Muqing said.
"Then fry me a plate of shredded pork!"
"There's no meat in the house."
"Are there any fish?"
"No."
"Where's the tofu?"
"nor."
"..." Lin Li inquired and found that there were no meat-related ingredients at home, which left him speechless.
Qin Muqing saw Lin Li in a daze, and she didn't know how to respond for a moment, "Should I confess to him?"
"In the future, we should always have ingredients at home." Lin Li said simply, then took the large bowl of white rice porridge that Qin Muqing served for himself, and ate it with fried vegetables and pickled radish.
Qin Muqing felt very guilty when she saw Lin Li starting to eat.
"Stop standing, sit down and eat!" After taking a few mouthfuls of rice porridge, Lin Li saw Qin Muqing still standing, so he asked him to sit down.
"Oh." Qin Muqing responded, then pulled out a chair and sat down.
After a while, Lin Li drank more than half of a large bowl of white rice porridge.
At this time, he found that Qin Muqing picked up the chopsticks but did not eat, and asked in confusion.
"What's wrong with you? If you have anything on your mind, you can tell me."
Qin Muqing thought about it and felt that Lin Li was very kind to her and should not hide it from him.
So she put down her chopsticks and honestly told Lin Li how she lent money to Sister Zhang, who sold box lunches.
"Mr. Lin, I borrowed the reserve fund without your consent. I'm sorry..."
Qin Muqing lowered her head in shame, apologized to Lin Li, and quietly waited for the other party's reprimand.
It turned out that he lent the money to others, leaving him without money to buy groceries... Lin Li looked at Qin Muqing who confessed in surprise.
There was actually nothing to be angry about about this kind of thing, so he smiled and said, "Since you are friends with Sister Zhang who sells lunch boxes, I can understand why you help her like this.
However, you have to do what you can to help others and deprive yourself of food. I personally don’t think it’s a good idea to do so. "
Qin Muqing originally thought that Lin Li would be a little angry about this, but she was very surprised when she didn't see him angry at all.
"Well, I will leave enough money for food in the future..."
Lin Li had a thought in his mind, and a small wad of banknotes appeared in his hand.
He put the money in his hand in front of Qin Muqing and said, "Take this money and go to the vegetable market to buy more vegetables tomorrow."
"Yes." Qin Muqing nodded and accepted the food fee from Lin Li.
"Let's eat!" Lin Li said, and then the two of them ate without saying a word.
After dinner, Lin Li got up and left the first floor to the bedroom on the third floor.
He didn't plan to go back to Blue Star tonight and wanted to spend the night at his home in the spirit world.
During the days when Lin Li was away, Qin Muqing cleaned Lin Li's bedroom every day, so the bedroom was very clean.
"Qin Muqing is very diligent. During the time when I was away from home, she kept the house in order, so I took her in..." Lin Li looked at the tidy bedroom and nodded with satisfaction.
"Boom..."
Thunder exploded outside the window, thunder and lightning flashed rapidly in the clouds, and the pouring rain actually intensified a little at this moment.
"It's raining really hard!"
"I hope there won't be water in the city tomorrow."
Lin Li stood in front of the window and looked outside. The rain kept beating on the window glass, forming streaks of water flowing downward.
I returned to Dongwucheng today. I didn’t stop much along the way, so I was really tired.
Now that he had finished dinner, Lin Li couldn't help but feel a little sleepy, and couldn't help but raise his hand and yawn.
"Ha~"
"I'm a little sleepy, go to bed and rest!"
Lin Li closed the bedroom door and lay down on the spacious bed.
He listened to the continuous sound of wind and rain outside the window and looked at the unfamiliar roof. After a while, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.
In the living room on the first floor, Qin Muqing finished washing the dishes and started cleaning the living room.
"Fortunately, the blood stains haven't dried yet, otherwise it would be troublesome to clean up."
Qin Muqing used a mop to clean up the blood spurted by Jiang Yang's thief. It took him nearly an hour to finally improve the hygiene at home.
…………
Blue Star, Rongcheng.
It was late at night, and outside Ping An Garden Community, an inconspicuous black car was parked under the street trees.
The streetlights emitted dim light, shining into the car. Sitting in the driver's seat was a young man wearing black-rimmed glasses.
"It's strange. Why hasn't that guy named Lin Li come back so late? Could it be that he also went on a trip?"
Mr. Xu handed over the task to a young man wearing black-rimmed glasses. Today he came to investigate, but he did not collect any useful information.
"Wait another half hour. If he hasn't come back yet, we have no choice but to give up today."
On the wall of Ping'an Garden Community, two petite figures, one black and one white, appeared.
"Meow... It's so late, why is that black car still parked there?" The little black cat looked at the black car in the distance and said in confusion.
"Meow... don't worry about him, let's go and meet them quickly." said the little white cat.
Then, two little wild cats jumped off the fence, landed and ran towards the street.
At this time, there were very few vehicles on the road outside the community. The little white cat and the little black cat looked left and right, and then crossed the road after making sure it was safe.
"call……"
The young man wearing black-rimmed glasses was puffing away smoke. Although he noticed the two little wild cats crossing the road, he didn't pay special attention to them.
"Dinglingling..."
The cell phone in his pocket suddenly rang, and the young man wearing black-rimmed glasses quickly took out his cell phone.
When he found out that the call was from his boss, Mr. Xu Sanye, he quickly took off the cigarette from his mouth and answered the phone.
"You should start working on the task I gave you now, right?" Mr. Xu, who was standing on the balcony on the second floor of the villa, blew the breeze and asked his subordinates.
"Yes." The young man wearing black-rimmed glasses nodded and reported to Mr. Xu what he had done today.
"As I told you before, you can complete this task at your own pace. There is no need to rush... It's getting late now. Go home and rest early, and monitor again tomorrow morning." Mr. Xu said with a smile.
"I plan to stay on guard for a while longer. If that guy named Lin Li hasn't come back yet, I will go back and wait until tomorrow to stay on guard again." The young man wearing black-rimmed glasses answered.
After chatting briefly for a while, the two hung up the phone.
"call……"
"It's a bad start!"
The young man wearing black-rimmed glasses was actually quite unhappy about not getting anything today.
But this is how things develop. No matter how unhappy I feel, it can't change the facts. I can only hope that I can get some useful gains in the future.
…………
The next morning, the golden sunlight outside the window passed through the glass and shone into the room.
The sleeping figure lying on the bed opened his eyes and found that the roof in front of him was very unfamiliar, and he was suddenly shocked.
"By the way, I'm in the spirit world now."
Lin Li just woke up and didn't realize what he was doing for a while. After being stunned for a few seconds, he realized where he was now.
He lifted up the quilt and got out of bed, went to the window and looked out.
Yesterday's heavy rain has stopped, and the blue sky is as clear as if someone had wiped it with a rag.
The sky was clear, without a single cloud, and the huge sun hung in the sky, pouring extremely dazzling light on the earth.
"Dong dong dong..."
There was a knock on the door, and Lin Li, who was looking out the window, immediately looked away when he heard the knock, turned around and came to the door.
"Click."
Qin Muqing, who was wearing simple clothes, pulled up her hair. After opening the door, she said to Lin Li, "Mr. Lin, I have prepared breakfast."
"Yeah." Lin Li nodded, "I'll wash up and go down."
After Qin Muqing turned around and left, Lin Li went to the bathroom to wash up.
After a while, Lin Li came to the restaurant on the first floor and took a seat. He couldn't help but smile when he saw that the breakfast on the table was much richer than yesterday's dinner.
"Mr. Lin, after you finish breakfast, do you want to go to the Yamen?" Qin Muqing asked.
"Yes." Lin Li replied with a smile, "Didn't the policeman tell me yesterday? He asked me to go to the Yamen to collect the reward today."
"The policeman came to see you several times before." Qin Muqing said.
Lin Li heard this and asked in confusion, "What is he looking for me for?"
"They say they want to register the information of the owners of each house in this area..." Qin Muqing explained in detail the several times that the gray-clothed detective had been here before.
"Register the household head information?" Lin Li raised his hand and touched his chin, and then said, "When I go to the Yamen to collect the reward later, I will also handle this matter."
After breakfast, Lin Li left home. After this period of development, there were several more built villas nearby.
"Soon, this place will become more and more lively..." Lin Li walked forward for a while and saw several families moving furniture into the house.
Looking through the gate, you can also see some men and women dressed as servants, trimming the flowers and plants in the yard.
Lin Li first bought a house in this place, thinking it was too deserted.
As a result, I never expected that this residential area would develop so quickly.
"If this pace of development continues, housing prices here will soon rise. Should I buy a few houses and wait for the appreciation?"
Lin Li walked toward the end of the street while thinking about whether to buy a house.
"drive."
"Da da da……"
Suddenly, a burst of rapid horse hooves sounded in the distance, interrupting Lin Li's thoughts.
