Beverley Restaurant is a very quiet sea view restaurant in the West End.
The price here is very high, and it is a very secretive members-only restaurant. There are not many tables. The golden beach outside is privately owned by the restaurant, with green palm olive trees and a line of blue sea and sky. It is a classic and beautiful tropical beach landscape.
Now all the other tables in the restaurant are empty. At the table next to the floor-to-ceiling windows, opposite Lu Ming, sits the graceful Judge Christine in a purple gauze skirt. This judge, who has always been dignified and tough, is rarely seen. The charm of the silk-beautiful young woman.
Recently, Judge Christine and Lu Ming have dinner appointments once a week, always at this restaurant.
The imperial labor law stipulates a day off every five days, but Lu Ming is still accustomed to thinking that the rest day is Sunday and the day before is the weekend.
The vocabulary of this cyclical holiday in the world's languages is automatically translated into "week" in his mind.
"The patent for roll-on deodorant that you bought out is now on sale. I heard that you also invested in the production of a microwave oven?" Christine slowly put down the coffee cup and just took a sip.
Lu Ming smiled bitterly. His mother was very curious about him. She made appointments with him every week, as if she wanted to hear her tell stories.
In her opinion, the things she tinkered with were just short stories.
In fact, Momo explained that the entry and exit of her patent rights and the investment of Huaxia Group were secret cards. If she really wanted to know, it would only cost more trouble, but it was not necessary, because it was necessary. To reveal one's hidden cards, one should use a method that one would not do if they were not life and death enemies.
From the side bag, Lu Ming took out a beautifully packaged gift box and said with a smile: "I will give you a specially customized roll-on perfume!"
Kristine looked at him with a half-smile but not a smile: "Is this how you always coax girls?"
Lu Ming scratched his head in embarrassment, knowing what she was talking about.
It’s been a long time since I introduced her daughter to me. Naturally, I knew about Pan Mila’s existence. Moreover, I also vaguely knew that there were many women in my family and she would not be a good match for her daughter. .
"I'm very busy with recent cases!" Christine took the gift box and put it aside, then changed the topic.
"Yes, alas, I suspect that a nine-year-old child has the potential to be sadistic and murderous! However, there is no direct evidence yet, and the testimony of the eyewitnesses is also relatively weak, mainly this witness , too unreliable, in the eyes of others, he is just a drunkard."
"This child actually has a classmate at school who said he had seen him abuse cats."
Last night, I asked Jin Meiyan about Gao Yulong. Jin Meiyan quickly said that of course she knew him, he was a hypocrite and a little pervert.
It was said that a few of them, girls who liked to skip classes, once gathered in a corner of the school wall and planned to jump over the wall to skip classes. They happened to see Gao Yulong cruelly torturing cats, and they were all shocked.
However, for rebellious girls like them, this matter is just a way to criticize the hypocrisy of adults. Such a bad guy has won all the awards in school. The adults all like him and think that he is well-behaved and hard-working. A model for gifted students.
They didn't tell anyone about it, and no one believed it, and the teacher would make trouble for them.
Thinking about it, Lu Ming shook his head: "However, cat abuse is not directly related to murder. Moreover, the students who saw him abuse cats were also problem students."
Since Christine became a high court judge, I can now discuss cases with her casually. In the past, I had to be more careful to avoid being queued in her court.
Christine gently stirred the coffee in an elegant posture, "Do you have to investigate the small details of the case yourself? Your investigators and detectives are useless!"
Lu Ming smiled bitterly: "No, this case is a bit special. The father of the child is a political figure. Therefore, I have been more hands-on, just because I want to be more confident in handling it."
"Let me introduce you to someone who will work as the investigation director in your government office. Otherwise, you will always investigate trivial cases and how will you make money? One day, I want to go to the Tower Restaurant to have coffee with you every few days. You can’t keep up with the pace, and you don’t have the money to buy that restaurant. Are you embarrassed?”
Lu Ming scratched his head, "I didn't buy it here, I just invested some money in it."
"The Meng Keduo family is so weird, how could they sell their shares to outsiders!"
"I just helped him resolve a small dispute." Lu Ming smiled again: "If you really want to drink coffee in the tower restaurant often in the future, and the restaurant is quiet, then it should be your problem to solve. I can't solve it. The entire East China Sea belongs to your family, right?"
Lu Ming naturally has an idea of Christine's background given the level of people he has come into contact with now.
"You are so humble!" Christine took a sip of coffee, "I heard that Old Renault is going to list the Tower Restaurant. How about we buy it together?"
Lu Ming was stunned: "Are you still interested?" This is really unexpected.
He hesitated, "Of course this is good, but if I have a lawsuit in the future, I will appeal to the High Court..."
"Well, I'm useless as a tool, right? You invented the word tool well." Christine's tone became more and more calm.
Lu Ming was immediately startled and called out to Tianqu, "Then how could it be? The High Court has no evasion system. It just tacitly acknowledges that your eleven justices are all wise and mighty. Moreover, your wiseness and might, then Need to say more?"
"But when the time comes, you are worried that I will deliberately vote against you in order to avoid suspicion."
"It's really not..." Lu Ming was about to say something.
Kristine has already waved her hand, "I will go back tomorrow and make a new proposal to ban political debates from television stations to avoid the entertainment of political issues. I think more than half of our eleven justices should , will agree to my proposal."
Lu Ming had no choice but, "Okay, I'll buy the tower restaurant with you. I'll pay 60% of the money, and you'll get 60% of the equity."
"No, we have equal investment and equal returns, but I want 60% of the voting rights." Christine looked at Lu Ming: "I heard that you and your business partners often Voting rights will be higher than equity? Is this your style? Let me learn!" There is a smile in his eyes.
Lu Ming spread his hands, "Yes, you defeated me in my own way!"
Both of them suddenly laughed.
……
Lu Ming looked at the files on the table and then at the person standing in front of him, feeling that his glasses would shatter on the ground.
Mom Christine, are you kidding me on purpose?
The file uses the custom of the past life to say that it has been spent to a certain extent. The name is Fu Mo Si Johnson, female, thirty-seven years old.
He has rich experience. He has served as a federal agent in the Imperial Capital, an officer in the Royal Guards, and an independent investigator in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. His current position is as an ordinary police officer in the Logistics Department of the Donghai Police Headquarters.
Looking at the positions, it was all the way down. When I was in the Royal Guards, the highest military rank was major. When I retired and changed careers, I was already a second lieutenant.
Up to now, he has become an ordinary police detective.
No wonder, in the files, he drank too much, beat his superiors, and especially when he was serving in the Royal Guards, he bombarded the lintel of a nobleman with a rocket launcher.
When he arrived at the Donghai Police Headquarters, he was originally a detective, but when investigating a certain case, he repeated his old tricks and injured the prosecutor of the case.
Looking at his resume, if he had not been sentenced to life imprisonment, he would have been burned in incense.
Look again at the obese middle-aged woman standing in front of the desk, with a waist thicker than a bucket. She looks like a mountain of flesh.
He has messy brown hair and dark green eyes, like a cat, with a faint light, which is quite scary.
But with a flattering smile, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like you can beat your boss.
Fumosi, this name is also a bit interesting.
"Master, I don't blame my young lady for looking at you differently! At first glance, you are a great person." Fumosi chuckled.
Lu Ming was helpless, where did the title Young Master come from? Moreover, how can such a flatterer beat his boss? Shaking his head, he asked: "Who is your lady?"
"Miss Christine, I have been the lady's maid since I was very young. As the old saying goes, I am the lady's knight in front of the palace! Just like now, my lady's lady, according to tradition, is the saint of the most noble princess. Knight, although by blood, my lady’s lady is the cousin of the little princess..."
Lu Ming frowned, is his communication skills even comparable?
Fumosi was still laughing, "Master, don't look at me like this, but I have learned everything since I was a child. When I was young, I could hit eight big men with a long javelin. Now, give me a squirt." , then a dozen thugs will come, no problem!"
Lu Ming was helpless and thought, I can do it too. Let’s see if they have weapons? However, it suddenly dawned on her that Judge Christine’s personal maid was here.
"You like fighting against power?" Lu Ming asked helplessly.
Fu Mosi was immediately overjoyed, "The young master is really good. They all say that I have a habit of beating my bosses, but the young master understands me!"
Lu Ming coughed, "What if I became your boss..."
Fumosi was stunned for a moment, a little suspicious, "Master, you don't think that I will be disrespectful to you, do you? How could that be? Master, how could you have such an idea? How could you and them? Likewise, you are my lady’s good friend, so you are also my master, right?”
Lu Ming nodded inwardly, no wonder, the flattering smile on his face could make him lose two taels of fans, so that’s what he said.
"Master, please don't treat me like an outsider. It's not like the young lady doesn't want me anymore. Before she married into the imperial capital, she went to live in the imperial capital for a period of time. At that time, I was sent to the Royal Guards. , the young lady looked down on that weakling, and the royal family was in an uproar at that time. The young lady also protected me, fearing to think that the young lady divorced because of my instigation, although, I did..."
With a giggle, she continued: "So, from there, let me develop freely."
Lu Ming nodded and asked, "Have you read the case I gave you?"
Before meeting her and seeing her file, Lu Ming asked someone to send her the case file and gave her half an hour to read it next door.
I just don’t want to have any preconceived first impressions. When I meet her, I first listen to her opinions on the case.
No matter how beautiful the file is, or how smart and capable the person looks, everything still depends on her analysis of the case.
I just didn’t expect that people and files would turn out like this.
When talking about the case, the flattering smile on Fumosi's face immediately disappeared, and he looked like a different person, "First check the accomplices of that little pervert. There must be a servant who knows the details of this little pervert, and is helping him deal with it. Be an accomplice in the aftermath. Also, I have a bad move..." He smiled and said, "Let's wait until there is no other way."
Lu Ming became interested, "Tell me about it."
"Create an opportunity and find a few female classmates from his school to beat him up. It is best to humiliate him severely and throw some smelly dog shit on his face. The little pervert will definitely find a way to retaliate..."
Lu Ming understood what she was saying, "This can't be used. Besides, this guy is quite smart. This kind of pervert thinks differently from us. What if he wants to take revenge ten years later?"
"Okay, then I will check it regularly!" Fumosi nodded and added: "He abuses cats and small animals, which shows that he is not the kind of pervert who tolerates it, but wants to do it every once in a while. Vent your desires, and revenge won't be too long away... Moreover, I'm not talking about protecting a few girls and catching this little pervert. When he is seriously stimulated, he may reveal his flaws. For example, where he keeps some secrets, he Maybe you can follow him to a secret place where he can vent his anger."
Oh? Lu Ming looked at Fu Mosi and nodded, "Okay."
For the first time since I came into this world, someone truly inspired me.
Stand up and stretch out his hand, "Welcome to join my office. From now on, you will be my investigation director! But the method you mentioned still cannot be used."
But Fu Mosi became a little embarrassed, "Master, why are you so solemn..." He took two steps closer and stretched out his hand, "I, no man has ever touched my hand... except for fighting... ”
Lu Ming was helpless and waved his hand, "Okay, I'll leave this case to you first!"
"Yes!" Fumosi stood at attention.
As soon as Fumosi went out, Hou Dexing knocked on the door and came in.
He looked embarrassed, holding his **** with his hands.
Just as he was about to knock on the door, he was slapped on the **** by the foreign woman who looked like a mountain of meat. She also laughed and said, "This handsome guy just has bad eyesight."
I don’t know why she is so strong. Her **** is so hot and painful, as if she has been slapped hard with a shovel.
What a **** shrew.
I can't afford to offend anyone who might be in or out of Lu Qianxing's perverted office.
You can only admit that you are unlucky.
"Is there any progress in your murder case?" Lu Ming asked from behind the desk.
Hou Dexing hurriedly apologized and took two steps, not daring to complain about what happened just now. "It's Speaker Gao. He called to urge the suspect. Is he sure? His maid is still waiting to be buried."
"Oh? I also want to ask, are the suspects identified in your case? Are there any suspects who can be prosecuted?" Lu Ming asked.
Hou Dexing coughed and said, "On the surface, Jeff Stewart is the biggest suspect, but there are still many doubts and we need to continue investigating."
Lu Ming nodded: "What do you think, just tell Chancellor Gao, it has nothing to do with me."
"Yes, yes..." Hou Dexing forced a smile, feeling regretful in his heart. Why did he take this case?
"However, I have some opinions, just opinions. Let's discuss it normally."
"Yes, yes, you say!" Hou Dexing was busy.
"When people entered the wine cellar, Stewart was fast asleep at the crime scene, smelling of alcohol. If a third party was present at the time of the crime, the murder weapon could have been easily erased for fingerprints and stuffed into his hand. in, right?”
Hou Dexing nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, so, I also think that we should continue the investigation to avoid unjustly accusing good people."
"Fumosi is a good agent. When you encounter problems, you can ask her to give some advice."
"Okay, okay..." Hou Dexing agreed repeatedly, and then asked: "Commissioner, where should I find this Agent Fumosi?"
"The one who just left, she works in 2010 and is my investigation director."
Huh? Hou Dexing was immediately dumbfounded and said with a grimace, "Okay, I will ask her for advice." In his heart, he was already suffering more than Coptidis chinensis.
After sending Hou Dexing away, Lu Ming looked at the time, picked up the phone, and dialed the number 2301 of Zuoan Garden.
Soon Jin Miyan's sweet voice sounded over there, "Uncle?"
There are not many people who can call that number.
"Well, there's no need to accompany your sister, that's good, she doesn't have anything to do with her, right?" Lu Ming felt relieved.
"I, I'm here to get something, my sister wants to go to the cinema to watch a movie..."
"It's Sunday, it's normal to watch a movie to relax." Lu Ming said, feeling as if he was also comforting himself. When did that little girl go out to watch a movie on campus?
"Well, yes, right..." Jin Meiyan agreed timidly, as if hesitating for a moment, "But she said that after watching the movie, she wanted me to take her to the billiard room to see the world..."
Lu Ming frowned, how could that happen? Jin Meizhen was not the kind of person who would give up on herself.
Actually, this deskmate is still very special in my eyes. Although he is young, he is strong, brave, self-reliant, very independent in many things, and has good plans for his life.
Impossible, just because of a young love that ends without any problem, will your life be overturned, right?
Then, it’s not Kim Meizhen whom I admire very much.
But having said that, her first heartbeat at such a young age might have been a big blow to her?
"Did you tell her anything about me?" Lu Ming asked.
Jin Meiyan's voice became softer and softer, as if she was about to run away on the other end of the phone line at any time.
"Uncle, I, I just want to persuade my sister, you, don't be angry..."
"I said, you and I are both the servants of a barrister. You got married early, your life is quite hard, and you don't understand what feelings are...I said you are not worthy of her... ...You said you were a lawyer just to save face, so you are vain and dishonest..."
In the end, Kim Mi-yeon started to cry, and she seemed very frightened.
Lu Ming started to stare, but then he thought, from Jin Meiyan's perspective on her sister, this kind of comfort was the right thing to do.
If you say that you are excellent in everything, then it will really hurt Jin Meizhen's little heart, as if you look down on her.
"Uncle, don't be angry..."
Jin Miyan said with a tone that wanted to cry, "But, my sister, stupidly, she also wants to be herself. If she is not good enough, she can be like the person I said. Together..."
Lu Ming looked at his watch and thought for a while, "Well, I still have some time. I'll book a seat and chat with her for a few words. See you at the door of Fuyingmen Cinema at 4:30."
……
Fuyingmen Cinema is the best cinema in Beiguan.
At this time, in the private room area on the second floor, Lu Ming looked at the number and saw that he was still late, it was already past 5 o'clock.
A business partner called me temporarily and we chatted a little more.
Oh, this.
Red gauze curtains were hung on both sides, and sitting inside were sisters Kim Mi-yeon and Kim Meizhen.
Lu Ming was startled when he suddenly saw the scene of the two sisters sitting closely together.
Kim Meizhen looks like a student of the Republic of China, wearing a blue jacket and cloth skirt, white stockings and black cloth shoes, pure and quiet.
Kim Mi-yeon has long orange-red hair, snow-white clothes and bright yellow canvas shoes, and is surprisingly beautiful.
However, the two sisters are actually born exactly the same. They both have extremely delicate and narrow snow-white melon-seed faces, with a little natural charm, but they give people completely different feelings. One is an extremely pure and good student, and the other is. A rebellious bad girl.
"Uncle..." Jin Meiyan stood up and stepped aside.
Jin Meizhen lowered her head, not daring to look at Lu Ming.
"Let's all sit down..." The two of them happened to get out of the way. Lu Ming sat down without thinking too much. He was used to sitting in the middle, but after sitting down, he felt something was wrong.
But Jin Miyan has already done her homework on the left side, while Jin Meizhen still stands with her head lowered, as if a student is standing in a penalty position.
Lu Ming was helpless, "Sit down, shouldn't I come?"
Jin Meizhen shook her head, thought for a while, sat down next to her, and whispered: "Brother Qianxing, I wasted your time again, I'm sorry."
"Don't listen to your sister's nonsense. I have a lot of time, and I'm not busy for a living. In fact, I'm really a lawyer, and I'm quite famous. If you read the newspaper, Lu Qianxing, there have been reports in the past, you can Come and have a look."
Jin Meizhen shook her head gently: "Brother Qianxing, you still don't understand me, and my sister doesn't understand me either. In fact, it doesn't matter what kind of person you are. I just remember that Brother Qianxing, you are a person who has learned a lot in just one semester. I came twice, and the second time was for Brother Qianxing, who brought me beef jerky..."
Lu Ming smiled bitterly: "Actually, what's the big deal? You're just still young. In the future, you will know that this is nothing. In the future, you will meet many very good and outstanding people. By then, You should still remember me, and you will also feel that it is a very precious memory, but it is just an experience of ignorance. Thinking of it now, you will only smile knowingly..." These words are true, Kim Meizhen, In the future, there are destined to be many outstanding young talents who will be regarded as treasures.
Jin Meizhen lowered her head and said nothing.
"Okay, let's watch the movie, go back after watching, and study hard in the future."
Jin Meizhen whispered: "Brother Qianxing, I would have studied hard, but I want to go to the billiard room, that is, today, to relax."
Lu Ming smiled and said, "Yeah, I knew you wouldn't let me down. My Lu Qianxing's deskmate is destined to be a very good person in the future."
Kim Meizhen didn’t know what she was thinking of, so she pursed her lips and smiled.
"What's wrong?" Lu Ming was surprised.
"My sister said you are very narcissistic..." Kim Meizhen whispered.
Lu Ming frowned and looked at Jin Meiyan.
Jin Meiyan lowered her head, pretending not to know anything and drinking soda. It seemed that she was not very good at getting scolded in front of her sister.
Lu Ming saw a bottle of soda on the small coffee table on the right with a straw inserted into it. It looked like it was half drunk. There was an extra straw on the plate on the table.
He picked up the soda bottle, inserted an extra straw, took two sips, handed it to Jin Meizhen, and said with a smile: "Well, actually I like you too, but at my age, I don't think about young love. If you need someone to support you, just think, Brother Qianxing is your boyfriend now. If you want to make a date or something, just tell your sister. If she can find me, I will give you what my boyfriend should do. Do it, eat, go shopping and watch movies. When you grow up and find someone you really like, just kick my first love away, okay?"
"It's fake, I don't want it, I want to study hard!" Jin Meizhen shook her little head, but she picked up the soda bottle, naturally bit her own straw, and suddenly said: "I can do it in a week , I’ll make an appointment with you once.”
Lu Ming smiled: "Okay."
The mood is suddenly very good. How many people are tired and tired, and don’t long to return to their youth and live that innocent and pure life?
I am the only one who has really blended back into the student circle. According to my age, I am still a primary school student.
I just thought it was funny, but I also felt a lot of emotion.
With a slight movement of her left hand, she glanced sideways, but it was Jin Meiyan who peeled a small handful of melon seeds and carefully put the kernels of melon seeds into her hand.
Then, suddenly her right hand moved slightly, but it was Jin Meizhen who secretly put a small handful of melon seeds into her right hand.
Lu Ming was stunned. You two are really twins. Do you have telepathy? All the things to do are the same...
Which hand will you eat first? This seems to be a problem for elementary school students.
However, as lawyer Lu Qianxing, Lu Ming smiled and stuffed the melon seeds in his right hand into his mouth.
The left one was handed to Jin Meizhen, "Meizhen, I peeled it for you."
Kim Meizhen’s big eyes immediately turned into crescent moons, and her smile was extremely sweet.
Lu Ming glanced at Jin Meiyan and saw that she seemed to be quite happy. As for her psychology, it was really difficult to judge.
It’s hard to guess a girl’s thoughts.
Jin Meiyan was thinking at this time, it was good that her uncle didn't throw the handful of melon seeds back into her hand.
When I just gave him melon seeds, I felt so frightened when I touched his hand that my heart felt like it was going to jump out of my chest.
Without my sister by my side, I really don’t have the courage to do these things for him.
