Lungmen Night Market, Dai Pai Dong.
"Hey, that little rabbit over there, what's wrong with Hong Yu?" Mr. Lee ate his rotten meat noodles with some old baijiu, looking at Hong Yu who had been in a daze for a long time, and asked Rope curiously.
"Don't know," Rope shook her head and continued to eat the food in her hand.
Mr. Lee looked at the dazed Hong Yu with confusion, but then remembered that it was Hong Yu who had inexplicably sought him out today and said he would treat him. He should probably just eat more.
After all, in his opinion, problems could be asked about later, but an unprovoked treat from Hong Yu was a once-in-a-century event. And if he couldn't get an answer later, he probably wouldn't get one now, so it was better to seize the time and eat more.
"Boss, two more bowls of rotten meat noodles!"
"I'm not eating," Rope suddenly said. Hong Yu on the side also seemed to have come back to his senses and nodded, indicating that he wasn't eating either.
"I'll have two bowls."
Ah, how classic.
Hong Yu thought.
"Hey, Hong Yu, what's wrong with you today? Why do you look so distracted?" Mr. Lee, seeing that Hong Yu had come back to his senses, directly asked.
"Nothing," Hong Yu held a skewer in his hand and said with some difficulty, "I was hit on... I think? It counts as being hit on, right..."
I can't possibly say that I was cornered in an interrogation room by a beautiful, white-haired, beast-eared girl who is both a Lungmen L.G.D. officer and a former Siracusan officer, a rising star in the police world, and was forced to agree to a dinner invitation, can I?
How much baijiu would you have to drink without a single peanut to have such a beautiful spring dream?
"You? Got hit on?" Mr. Lee raised an eyebrow. Hong Yu indeed had a handsome face. Even with his completely opaque blind man's glasses on, it couldn't hide much of his dashing face.
"That's not so strange, is it? I'm more surprised that you've been in Lungmen for about a year, and your general store still hasn't gotten a female boss," Mr. Lee looked at Hong Yu with a teasing expression. "What's there to sigh about?"
Is he implying that I don't have a girlfriend?
"Sigh, you don't understand, Mr. Lee. In this Lungmen, who do you think... can be called a master of the great Dao?" Hong Yu suddenly changed the subject.
"Oh? What do you mean?" Mr. Lee, who was gradually getting tipsy, became interested.
"You ask, I'll answer," Hong Yu just smiled, seeing that Mr. Lee had taken the bait.
Rope didn't pay attention to the topic of the two big-shot men, still eating the food in her bowl, and from time to time stealing a little from Hong Yu for herself.
"Lungmen's Chief Executive Wei, repelled the Black Snake, stabilized Lungmen... can he be called a master of the Dao?" Mr. Lee asked tentatively.
"Afraid of his wife, a thorn in the Grand Tutor's side. Cannot be called a master of the Dao," Hong Yu laughed.
"Lin of the shadows, the underground king of Lungmen, all the gangs under him submit... can he be called a master of the Dao?" Mr. Lee asked again.
"Heh, a doting father who can't beat Emperor at Go. Cannot be called a master of the Dao."
"Then... the immortal Emperor, with his talented Penguin Logistics, the old-school emperor of the rap world. Can he be called a master of the Dao?"
"Hmph, that penguin doesn't know what's good for him. He actually doesn't appreciate the deliciousness of tanghulu. Cannot be called a master of the Dao!" Hong Yu snorted coldly. He still remembered that the first time he met Emperor, the other party actually used the excuse that he was a penguin to say he didn't eat tanghulu.
Why didn't you say you couldn't drink alcohol because you were a penguin when you were drinking?!
Hong Yu: Holding a grudge.
"Then I really don't know."
"Eh, in my opinion, the only master of the Dao in Lungmen is you, Mr. Lee!" Hong Yu patted Mr. Lee's shoulder, only to be slapped away by the other party with a look of disgust.
"Give it a rest. I was just playing along with you, and now you're trying to flatter me to death, are you?" Mr. Lee said in a bad mood.
"This is what you don't understand, right? Let me tell you, look... you're single, right? Isn't that a major characteristic of a master of the Dao?! Which of those who have cultivated to become Buddhas has a wife?!"
"You said all that just to mock me, didn't you..." Mr. Lee clenched his fist.
"Ah, that's right. This whole plate of dumplings was just for this dipping sauce," Hong Yu smiled scumilly, and then ran away at an extremely fast speed as if escaping.
Mr. Lee's clenched fist gradually loosened. He thought to himself, "Ah, this guy is treating me. I can't get angry, I can't get angry, Mr. Lee... don't chase after him and beat him up. If you chase after him, you lose..."
After a while, Mr. Lee finally calmed down his about-to-explode mood and calmly ate his rotten meat noodles.
Wait?!
At this time, Mr. Lee suddenly reacted.
That guy Hong Yu ran away, so who's paying?!
"Eh, where's Hong Yu?" At this time, Rope finally lifted her head from her bowl, which was as big as a washbasin. In front of her was only the dazed Mr. Lee, while Hong Yu had long since disappeared.
"He ran away," Mr. Lee's expression was grim. After looking at each other for a few seconds, he and Rope shouted in perfect sync:
"That scum!!!"
...
...
...
Without the police officers working overtime as much as in the morning, the L.G.D. at night seemed a bit deserted.
"Gambino, I want all the information on this person. Help me collect it," Lappland brought a bag of documents. The most conspicuous part on top was a photo of Hong Yu.
"I need more detailed photos than what the L.G.D. has on record," she threw all the information she had gotten from the L.G.D. database about Hong Yu to the dog-headed man in front of her.
"This, big sis, this isn't right, is it?" The dog-headed man in a police uniform, Gambino, said with some hesitation.
"There's nothing wrong with it, Gambino," Lappland waved her hand carelessly. "It's just collecting information, not being a mafioso and breaking some unlucky guy's fingers. Of course I know we're in Lungmen now, not Siracusa. What's more, that kind of thing is not even popular in Siracusa anymore."
"Ah... that's right. Their severe interrogation now is only limited to force-feeding criminals pineapple pizza..."
"Well... I think that kind of thing is more terrifying than severe interrogation," Lappland grinned. "Well said, Gambino. If you can't find me satisfactory information within a week, how about I force you to eat pineapple pizza?"
"Mission will be completed! Big sis!"
"Good, I look forward to your information," Lappland replied casually. "Oh right, I'm going to Penguin Logistics. You can get off work whenever you want tonight."
"Penguin Logistics?" Gambino was stunned. "Big sis, Texas has already gotten more than twenty speeding tickets from you this week. You're still going to find trouble?"
He could still remember the scene of Texas staring at his very unrestrained big sis with a dark face...
"What trouble?" Lappland rolled her eyes at Gambino, then smiled, "This time when I go to Penguin Logistics, Texas will probably have to thank me."
Under the puzzled gaze of her subordinate, Lappland left this sentence and then left the L.G.D. building.
Texas, you'd better thank me properly. I'm the one who told you the news that that guy might still be alive as soon as possible...
Ah, of course, the dinner date doesn't count. That's a contest of information gap in fair competition. You can't blame me for that, Texas. Who asked the first one to find him to be me and not you?
