Chapter 372 It happened!
Chapter 372 It happened!
"Leon! Your story has been exposed!"
She put the plate on the table with great force, making a clang sound. The policewoman, with dark circles under her eyes, sat down opposite Leon and whispered with annoyance:
"I already know that you were the one who attacked the boarding tower!"
"..."
"Oh."
After a few seconds of silence, Leon picked up half a piece of beef pudding with a fork and put it on the policewoman's plate, then poured her half a bowl of his soup.
"I am sorry to trouble you."
"..."
And then? Nothing?
After waiting for a while and seeing nothing, the female police officer gritted her teeth in anger and said angrily:
"Is that all? Don't you have anything else to tell me?"
"..."
"Um... Today's pudding is made with ribeye meat. It tastes great, and it's topped with Aunt Diana's special sauce. I was worried that you wouldn't have time to eat it because you were working overtime, so I asked for two more pieces..."
"Don't play dumb! That's not what I'm asking!"
After stabbing the beef pudding with a fork, the female police officer leaned over and said angrily:
"Tell me quickly! What's going on! Otherwise I will bring people to arrest you right away!
And... damn it! Why are you still wearing this old coat? I've received several reports because of you wearing the same clothes as the suspect! Can't you change into a new one? "
what?
Leon was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and asked back in confusion:
"This coat is pretty good, it's wear-resistant, dirt-resistant and warm. If I want to buy a new coat similar to this one, it will cost more than a silver round. And I saw on my way to work that three or four out of ten people on the street were wearing something similar to me. Why would someone report me because of my clothes?"
"There are many people wearing this on the street, but there are not many in the police department. It looks particularly conspicuous... Anyway, you should find time to change your clothes. If someone reports you next time, I will not clean up your mess!"
After fiercely crushing the pudding and mixing it into the rice, the female police officer scooped a spoonful of rice into her mouth. As the delicious gravy gradually spread in her mouth, her tense expression finally relaxed and she nodded slightly:
"It tastes really good... What's going on with the boarding tower? Tell me!"
Even eating can’t stop your mouth...well...it would be strange if it could be stopped for such a big thing.
After shaking his head slightly, Leon organized his words a little, and then explained seriously:
"To put it simply, there are dangerous things over there. If we don't deal with them, it will cause a lot of trouble, so I went there."
"..."
"..."
"It's gone?"
"Gone."
"..."
"To be honest, it's not that I don't want to tell you, but the fewer people who know about this, the better."
After taking a sip of the soup, Leon spread his hands helplessly and said:
"You know, although we are both from the police department and we are both doing the job of 'maintaining law and order', our jobs are completely different from those of ordinary police officers. I can say so much because of our relationship.
Think about it, if your secret police received a mission and found that the finance minister was collaborating with the enemy and selling out the kingdom's intelligence for years, so you arrested him at night... If it were you, would you tell everyone about it?" "..."
That’s true...bullshit!
After nodding in agreement, the female police officer reacted and complained angrily:
“It’s okay if I can’t talk about the mission, but you just walked away after finishing the work, while I’m working overtime like crazy!
Except for the day I came back from my city tour, when I got enough sleep, I have only been able to sleep four or five hours a day in the past week! Do you know how uncomfortable this is? "
"Yeah, thank you for your hard work. Thank you for your hard work."
After forking a piece of salmon from the policewoman's plate and stuffing it into his mouth, Leon looked up at her dark circles under her eyes. He felt a little embarrassed, and then he couldn't help but suggest again:
"By the way, if you're really that sleepy, then go to my office and take a nap... After all, you know now that this is destined to be a case that will never be solved. There's no need to stay and fight."
"no!"
After chewing the fried chicken fiercely, the female police officer said unhappily:
"We in the Secret Investigation Bureau are not as flexible as you. We have many cases to investigate! We definitely can't continue investigating the boat boarding tower incident, but we can still investigate other cases.
After dinner, I will apply to be transferred to another task force... By the way, do you know the Marquis Jinjuan who drowned recently? If I am transferred, I will probably take over that case. "
???
Ah, this...why do you always take jobs like this?
"what happened?"
After waiting for a while without seeing Leon's response, the female police officer who was drinking soup raised her head, stuck out her pink little tongue, subconsciously swept the oil on her lips, and then said with surprise:
"Why are you silent again?"
"..."
Because I guessed that you would have to work overtime again, and you would definitely not find any results. As a good friend who made you work overtime like crazy, I feel a little bit ashamed...
"nothing……"
After looking at the policewoman with a hint of pity, Leon sighed and said:
"I wish you success."
"Of course I can succeed!"
After wrinkling her nose, the female police officer snorted and said:
"I am an elite field police officer of the Secret Investigation Bureau! If I hadn't been worried about being promoted too quickly and being gossiped about, I would have been directly promoted to the field team supervisor based on my achievements in the past few years, and I would even have had a chance to compete for the next director of the Secret Investigation Bureau.
As long as there is no case of your 'interference', I can basically investigate it in my hands. Regarding the case of Marquis Jinjuan, although I haven't read the files yet, I have learned a lot from the newspapers and noticed some suspicious points. I am very confident that I can solve it! "
"Yeah, I believe in you, you can do it...um...I've finished eating, so I'll leave first!"
After coughing twice in embarrassment, Leon finished the rest of the food on the plate in two or three bites. Then, driven by guilt, he hurriedly left the cafeteria of the police department and returned to the Cleanup Bureau to talk to the director about the problem of the female reporter.
However, when Leon pushed open the door of the Cleanup Bureau, walked through the somewhat dark corridor, and was about to knock on the door of the director's office, the door of the director's office opened by itself first, and two somewhat familiar figures appeared in front of Leon.
"Mr. Lyon, I haven't seen you for a while."
After extending his hand in a friendly manner to Leon, the old investigator, who was born with a smiling face, smiled gently and said:
"You should have heard about the matter of the Marquis Jinjuan. He is protected by the Word Spirit of the General Administration, so according to the usual practice, we need to find the relevant personnel and ask some basic questions. I hope I don't disturb your work."
