Chapter 243 Eating Hot Pot
Xiaoqin came soon, she knew that Ah Si was always careful when joking.
"I'll give you a cell phone." Ah Si handed over Bian Shijie's phone.
Xiaoqin took it, glanced at Ah Si and said, "I'll be furious if there's nothing I'm interested in!" She swiped open the interface, and the clear markings on the screen made her eyes widen.
Ah Si smiled and said, "Are you interested?"
To be honest, Xiaoqin was a little confused. It was like a friend saying he wanted to give you a gift, and you thought it was just some raw Pu'er tea, but he suddenly handed you a pot and said it was used.
If this phone was given by an ordinary person, Xiaoqin would think it was a prank, but she also knew that Zhang Nianzu and his people were not ordinary people. If the son of a nouveau riche said he was giving her an antique heirloom, then he was probably deceived by the "fellow villager". Hu Bayi said it was an antique, then it must be an antique, although he should hand it over to the country, but - isn't Xiaoqin representing the country now?
Xiaoqin glanced through it briefly, her face serious. From the messages and notes in the phone book, she immediately realized, "This... is Bian Shijie's phone?"
Zhang Nianzu said: "Yes, Bian Shijie is dead. Bian Shikai did it."
"What's going on?"
Zhang Nianzu glanced at Zhang Xiaoliang and said, "To put it simply, Bian Shijie relied on the information I wanted to make a deal with me. After I refused, I followed his henchmen and witnessed their brothers killing each other. I was just a bystander in this. If you want to know the details, I can also tell you. Uh, tell me!"
This time, Xiao Qin did not ask any more questions. She knew what was more important. Now was a critical moment for her to race against time with the Yunnan drug den. She took out a bunch of data cables and instruments from her bag, and even her own phone, plugged them into Bian Shijie's phone and fiddled with them for a while before saying, "There are several invisible programs running inside. The data cannot be transmitted or downloaded. It was done by an expert."
Ah Si said: "No wonder this guy didn't even set a password."
Ah San said, "Can't you just smash the phone open and take the card out?"
Xiaoqin said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Maybe it will explode."
Ah San asked: "What should we do now?"
Xiaoqin put Bian Shijie's phone on the table, picked up her own phone and took pictures of the contact groups and the contacts one by one and said, "We can only use the most primitive method."
Ah Si said to Zhang Xiaoliang, "Go get a stool for your sister-in-law."
"No need." Xiaoqin automatically ignored Ah Si's nonsense, turned her head and glanced at Zhang Xiaoliang in a hurry and asked, "Who is this child?"
Ah Si said, "It's from the neighbor."
Xiaoqin lowered her head and worked, her tone clearly asking Zhang Nianzu: "Have you called the police ?"
Zhang Xiaoliang shook his head slightly, and Zhang Nianzu said: "No..."
Xiaoqin said without surprise: "You witnessed a murder, but you're too lazy to report it to the police?"
Zhang Nianzu had never really thought about this question, and he felt a little emotional. He had always wanted to be a law-abiding person, but he was still led astray by Li Changgui and his friends. He could only laugh dryly and said, "I forgot when I was nervous."
Xiaoqin said speechlessly: "Are you nervous?"
Zhang Nianzu argued, "Such a big thing will be discovered sooner or later anyway."
Xiaoqin said, "They should have received the letter by now, but they still can't figure out that the deceased is Bian Shijie. If I expose it, you will be exposed. How should I explain it to them?"
Zhang Nianzu thought for a moment and said, "We are calling the police now, right? I followed Bian Shijie's henchmen because of a dispute with someone else. That person owed me money, and Bian Shijie's henchmen knew his whereabouts but didn't tell me, which meant they also owed me money indirectly. It's not illegal for me to follow him, right? Later, the Bian brothers had an internal conflict, and there were three of them, including the henchmen, and I didn't touch them at all."
The uncle and nephew of the Li family nodded together and said, "That's absolutely correct."
Xiaoqin said: "It barely makes sense, but what about Hu Hao? You also owe me an explanation, right?"
Ah San said: "What's the explanation? Hu Hao beat up our brothers, and he doesn't allow us to fight back?"
Xiaoqin said: "It is not allowed by law. What you are doing is called——"
Ah Si answered quickly: "It's about provoking trouble. I told them all about it."
Xiaoqin said: "I don't care about these, I want to know how you found him?"
Zhang Nianzu thought about it and told the truth: "Hu Hao's former boss was Lei Xiaohu. They broke up after Hu Hao got involved in drugs..."
Xiaoqin nodded and said, "I understand. It seems that you really want to help Lei Xiaohu. We will handle it impartially." She added, "By the way, you still shouldn't lynch Hu Hao."
Ah San said, "How could I have tortured him? I just walked in and kicked him twice and he lay down. I didn't torture him at all."
Xiaoqin glared at him and said, "You beat him, which is lynching, and how did his two arms get dislocated?"
Ah Si said: "I'm afraid he will put up a desperate resistance and hurt you..."
Xiaoqin was about to refute him, but she stopped herself. Finally, her expression softened and she reluctantly went back to work.
Ah San sniffed and said, "Who's eating hotpot? I'm hungry just by smelling it."
Everyone looked in the direction of the smell and saw that across the street, Liu Laoliu and his three companions were sitting outside a motorhome at a small round table, with a copper pot, shabu-shabu meat, shrimp balls, crab sticks, and more than a dozen dishes on it. The charcoal fire was burning brightly, and the pot was just turned on. The thin slices of Ximeng mutton from Inner Mongolia were boiled in the soup and turned into elastic and full cooked meat slices. They almost didn't need any sauce to melt in the mouth and were endlessly delicious. The hot pot was moved from a popular online restaurant on another street. Their business was particularly prosperous, and there was a long line of people. Liu Laoliu and his companions insisted on waiting until it was past meal time to ask the waiter to move the stall over. In order to eat, they also tried every possible way.
Ah San's eyes widened as he said, "The food is really good."
Ah Si said: "The daily food allowance for these three guys is nearly 600 yuan, they can't eat hot pot every meal."
Ah San said, "Let's buy some noodles and eat them in their pot. Do you think they will agree?"
Li Changgui was restrained and glared, "What the hell! That's the enemy!"
Asan was so hungry that he bought a bunch of pancakes and shared them with everyone.
Zhang Xiaoliang had been standing beside Xiaoqin curiously watching her busying around. At this moment, he couldn't help but point at a row of inconspicuous numbers on the corner of Bian Shijie's phone screen and said, "Sister, this time doesn't seem right."
Xiaoqin accidentally glanced at it and saw that it showed 02:14, while the exact time was 1:40 p.m. Xiaoqin also noticed those numbers at first, but did not think much about it, thinking it was a time error. At this time, she looked up and concentrated for a second, then put Bian Shijie's phone to her ear and listened for a while, and suddenly her face changed drastically!
Zhang Xiaoliang looked at her expression and blurted out, "Will it really explode?"
Xiaoqin didn't bother to talk to anyone. She threw her cell phone at Zhang Nianzu and said loudly, "If I don't come back, give it to our people." Then she ran out.
At this time, everyone knew what had happened and what was about to happen - Bian Shijie's phone did not have a password, because he knew that the password would be cracked, so he simply installed one in his phone, and any attempt to steal the data inside would be activated. In addition, people like him never thought of being captured alive, so this thing must have other ways to activate it, as his last means of escape or to die together with the people who caught him in the final madness. It's just that he died too suddenly, and nothing could be done in time.
Zhang Nianzu quickly stopped Xiaoqin and said, "This is a residential area. Where are you running to?"
Xiaoqin said anxiously: "Anyway, the fewer people the better, get out of the way." No one knew how powerful this bomb was, but Bian Shijie would definitely not use low-quality goods. Half of the street might be affected. Looking at the numbers, there was only one minute left.
Zhang Nianzu stretched out his hand and said, "Give it to me!"
Xiaoqin was stunned, and Zhang Nianzu shouted, "Trust me!" and snatched the phone away.
Li Changgui said in a deep voice: "Nianzu, let me do it."
Ah San also said: "I run fast!"
"Get out of the way, I have a way." Zhang Nianzu pushed them apart and walked straight across the street.
Seeing his old friend coming, Liu Laoliu said seriously, "You haven't eaten yet, right? I won't treat you to a working meal."
Zhang Nianzu put his hands behind his back and said cheerfully, "You eat yours—" He walked to the front of the RV and casually patted the door and said, "Sixth Master, is your car bulletproof?"
"Really? Remove that word!" Liu Laoliu vowed, "Not only bulletproof, but also explosion-proof. What do we ants rely on to survive? High technology!"
"Great!" Zhang Nianzu opened the car door and threw the cell phone in, then closed the door at lightning speed, then pulled Liu Laoliu and ran away.
"Eh?" Seeing that this was not a good topic to talk about, Zhuge Daofeng and Xiahou Pili followed over.
Bang——
With a muffled sound, the RV was like a firecracker was set off in its belly. It jumped an inch high on the spot. The front and rear glass exploded into a milky white color and then splattered. The airflow blew down the table with the hot pot on it, and the hot pot soup spilled all over the floor. The meat and vegetables also fell to the ground.
Passersby who witnessed this scene gloated: "If you guys eat hot pot on the street again, the pot will explode, right? You deserve it!"
Liu Laoliu was stunned and said angrily: "We are eating charcoal hot pot!"
