Spy Family

Chapter 88 A head taller

Ru Hongshang's large-scale party is famous among Zhai Jing's upper-class circles. This is not a dinner party attended by a dozen people, but hundreds of celebrities and big shots gathered together. They drank, chatted and socialized without any formality. Countless important decisions were made there. Through talking and laughing, many conflicts are resolved or become deeper here.

Lu Linbei sneaked in once under the leadership of Mei Wangzhen and took a quick look. Except for a few familiar celebrities, he didn't remember anything. Tonight, he had the opportunity to observe carefully.

Chen Manchi was still wearing the evening suit, and she only had time to do a little care of her hair. She didn't care, It's enough to experience sitting in a hair salon for several hours once. I'm not a celebrity, so I don't need to pretend to be one. look like.

Even so, after walking into the crowded hall, Lu Linbei still felt that Chen Manchi was the most beautiful woman here.

Not surprisingly, Lu Linbei saw Mei Yongge, director of the Emergency Department, among the guests.

Although the Emergency Department is in a de facto state of division, the director is still the director after all and is the investigator's immediate boss. Lu Linbei and Chen Manchi came forward to say hello.

Hello, Director Mei.

Mei Yongge glanced over, hummed, and continued chatting with others, as if the face twist just now was just to clear her throat.

Lu Linbei didn't care. He strolled casually with Chen Manchi, occasionally stopping for a drink, which was quite comfortable.

Cheng Toushi was also there, always by the hostess's side, with a youthful look on his face, no fingerprints, and no trace of loss after being idle. He just turned his face slightly when he saw Lu Linbei and Chen Manchi. Go, he probably made up his mind not to look at Chen Manchi again.

I can introduce you to someone you want to meet. Ru Hongshang said enthusiastically. Her sharp eyes recognized that Chen Manchi was still wearing the dress from the last dinner, and her attitude became more friendly.

Not yet. Lu Linbei replied with a smile.

Don't be formal, treat this place as your own home. Ru Hongshang glanced at an important person and immediately went over to welcome him with open arms.

What does she want us to see? Chen slowly asked in confusion. She admitted that this was a luxurious party, so luxurious that it was incompatible with the two of them.

She had a lot of weird ideas.

After walking around for a while, Lu Linbei saw another acquaintance, Cui Xuanwen, deputy director of the Information Department, who was knocked unconscious and kidnapped by two investigators from the Emergency Department here.

He didn't seem to remember Lu Linbei at all, or he felt that he had reconciled and was unwilling to argue with a small investigator. When he heard the greetings, he nodded politely.

Ru Hongshang's party is like a large supermarket. It seems to have everything, but for first-time visitors who are not familiar with the arrangement of goods, it is nothing more than a maze.

Lu Linbei was also tired of it, so he took Chen Manchi to the balcony to find some quietness and whisper. Although the two of them didn't like the party, they both admired the house very much. They had been here a few times, but only once. There was very little space, so the two of them walked out of the balcony again, not wanting to see anyone, but just wanting to know how big the house was.

After walking for a while, they still couldn't calculate the area and could only confirm that it was really big.

While the two were wandering around, the purpose of Ru Hongshang's invitation to the party was finally revealed. A woman of similar age was about to pass by, suddenly stopped, and smiled slowly at Chen: You look familiar, you are... Fortune teller?

Chen slowly nodded doubtfully.

The fortune teller in that shop where Hong Que knows his fortune?

right.

What a coincidence. I've been to that shop. You may not remember me. I was accompanying a friend to tell fortunes. Afterwards, she said that your fortune-telling was extremely accurate. When I went there again, you were not there.

Yes, I won't go to the store for a while.

Oh, what a coincidence. Mrs. Hong Que is not as accurate as you. Your name is Chen Manchi, right?

It is always a happy thing to be praised by others. Chen Manchi smiled and said: I am a junior, I can't compare with Mrs. Hong Que.

This kind of thing depends on talent, not age. Well, do you have time now? Can you do a simple calculation for me?

Hmm... Chen Manchi looked at Lu Linbei hesitantly.

I'll pay.

Lu Linbei nodded, and Chen Manchi said: Okay, you can read the palm, but you can't read it too carefully, so I'll charge you 500 points.

Thank you very much. By the way, my name is Li Qingyou. When the sky clears up after the rain, it is a game of travel in the world.

Li Qingyou was obviously very familiar with Ru Zhai. He led the two of them into a reading room with ready-made tables and chairs. Chen Manchi read her palm very seriously and then predicted love and career.

Li Qingyou nodded repeatedly, then paid the money very happily, and then said: I really hope I can have the opportunity to do a complete fortune telling. When will Master Chen go to the store?

Chen Manchi was still thinking, and Lu Linbei said for her: Tomorrow, she will be in the store from nine to eleven every morning.

Remember. Li Qingyou stood up and said goodbye, I will introduce you to more guests.

When there were only two people left, Chen Manchi said blankly: Don't you want me to accompany you?

I will accompany you to the store to guard it.

Chen Manchi suddenly woke up, looked in the direction where Li Qingyou was walking away, and asked in a low voice, Is she from the Cui family?

Nine times out of ten.

Shouldn't I contact you? How did you find me?

Routine routine. Anyway, if she goes, she will tell fortunes and collect money normally. Lu Linbei knew very well in his heart that this was not routine at all. Cui Zhuning finally began to reveal his true purpose: Lu Linbei was just added value, the most valuable The valuable person is actually Chen Manchi.

Mei Qianzhong's prediction was correct. Guan Zhuqian was contacting Chen Manchi through the Cui family, trying to find out how many secrets she knew and revealed.

Lu Linbei breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had never doubted Chen Manchi, he needed evidence to convince Mei Qianzhong and others. Cui Zhuning's actions showed that Chen Manchi had no secret communication with Guan Zhuqian. She was really just An ordinary fortune teller got into the espionage industry by accident.

Lu Linbei was in a happy mood, and even the party seemed more interesting, so he stayed a little longer and invited Chen Manchi to dance. Their dancing skills were about the same, and they could only move their steps slowly with the music, which was quite coordinated.

On the way home, after Chen Manchi confirmed that he could speak freely, he sighed: I didn't expect that Ru Hongshang is really a multiple spy. I have seen this rumor a long time ago, and it is actually true.

To be precise, she is not a multiple spy, or even a spy. She just provides channels for spies. The clever thing is that in her home, multiple channels converge together and cover up each other. No one can tell the truth from the false. .

Chen thought for a while before saying, It's really complicated. Is it necessary?

This is also a habit left over from the war years. It's hard to say whether it's necessary now.

Chen Manchi quickly forgot about such a complicated matter. When she returned home, she immediately changed her clothes and made a dinner. I didn't dare to eat anything there, but it made me starved.

The next morning, Lu Linbei accompanied Chen Manchi to the store. Mrs. Hongque was very happy and willing to give up her time in the morning, Just don't think there are too many people.

Just after ten o'clock, Li Qingyou entered the store. As soon as he sat down, he revealed his true identity, I am an investigator from the Information Department. I'm sorry for not telling the truth last night.

Chen Manchi wasn't surprised at all, You've paid, you can do whatever you want.

This time I will also pay and ask fortune teller Chen to continue telling fortunes, but I want to say a few words to Mr. Lu.

I read my palm, and you say your words without disturbing each other.

Lu Linbei had been sitting on a chair against the wall, nodding his head but saying nothing.

Li Qingyou looked over and said: This place is under surveillance, but there is no problem in speaking. I have been ordered by Team Leader Ning to establish contact with Mr. Lu. From now on, I will come here once every Monday and Thursday morning. Is that okay?

Okay. Lu Linbei said.

Team Leader Ning said that Mei Qianzhong still has plans to kill him and silence him, so he won't show up for some time in the future. If Mr. Lu has anything to say, you can let me convey it.

very good.

Mr. Lu, do you have something to convey?

I want the evidence of Mingwang Xing. Cui Zhuning will understand what I mean.

Cui Zhuning once attributed the source of the weird technology to Mingwang. Lu Linbei didn't believe it at the time, but now he hopes to see more information.

I will convey it, but - Li Qingyou smiled, Is Mr. Lu just asking for it?

At this stage, yes, I only ask for it.

Li Qingyou smiled again, and Chen Manchi spoke at this time, What do you want to ask Miss Li?

So fast?

With the foundation we built last night, we will be faster today.

Well, let's love it. Li Qingyou smiled.

It was calculated yesterday that Ms. Li has been hurt in love, and there will be some ups and downs in her future love. Today, the ups and downs are more clear - Ms. Li should be careful of men who are a head taller than herself.

So specific? Li Qingyou asked in surprise, forgetting the real purpose of this trip.

That's what the palm prints say, and the palm prints also show that if Miss Li can get through this incident safely, she will gain beautiful love.

Thank you, this is what I need most. Li Qingyou smiled, How much is it?

It's also five hundred points.

Come back next time, I want to calculate my career. After paying, Li Qingyou stood up and said to Lu Linbei: See you next Monday.

goodbye.

After Li Qingyou left, Lu Linbei asked: I remember you reminded Ye Zi to be careful of taller women.

Yes, their palm prints are somewhat similar. This is the wonder of palmistry. You don't understand, and it's hard for me to explain it to you. Destiny is often unexpected, but it is also reasonable.

When is the time to give me a new fate?

It's not here anyway. I'll feel it when it is.

While talking, Lu Linbei received a call from Lu Yezhou.

Are you free tonight? Let's have dinner together.

According to Mei Qianzhong's arrangement, the two of them should have dinner together once a week. This was the second time this week. Lu Linbei immediately agreed. Lu Yezhou had already chosen a location and made an appointment to meet at six o'clock.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Linbei and Chen Manchi went to Ru's house. Ru Hongshang did not show up, and only asked the manservant to send a message, saying that there was no information today.

Is Ru Hongshang about to give up? Chen Manchi asked hopefully on the way home. Although she admired the female star, she still felt that it was better to be farther away.

When she refuses to let us visit, she will truly give up. Lu Linbei didn't quite believe that Ru Hongshang would be the kind of person who would give up after one failure.

Lu Yezhou seemed to have realized something. He really had a new girlfriend. She was lively and cute. She hit it off with Chen Manchi. The important thing was that she was one head shorter than Lu Yezhou, not taller.

At the dinner table, Lu Yezhou introduced the power of Master Chen to his new girlfriend, She told me my fortune a few days ago and told me to be careful about women who are a head taller than me. Guess what?

Have you really met a woman who is a head taller than you? the new girlfriend asked a little warily.

I met a woman with a higher position than me. Just because I told a joke to a colleague, she deducted a month's salary from me, and her name was 'Meiboxue', which means ship, big ship, leaf boat, small boat. Aren't you also a head taller than me?

Lu Linbei guessed that Lu Yezhou must have been molesting a female employee in the Emergency Department and was punished after being seen by his superiors.

The new girlfriend admired Chen Manchi so much that she made an appointment to go to the store to tell fortunes when she was free.

While the two girls were going to the dressing room, Lu Yezhou got down to business: The old man asked me to tell you, try to get Cui Zhuning out. This time he is really going to take action.

And Cui Zhuning already knew it in advance, Lu Linbei thought in surprise.
