Chapter 55: The Young People's Game
Zhang Nuon warmly invited Yu Ming to a one-day tour of the police station, and the two watched Wang Hui being interrogated from behind the screen. After watching for a while, Yu Ming said, "Officer Zhang, she won't talk. Didn't she ask for a lawyer?"
"We are using the seriousness of the case as a reason to temporarily not allow her to see a lawyer. However, her lawyer has already found the judge. The judge called me and said that he can hold on for at most 12 more hours. If she still doesn't speak after 12 hours, we will have no choice but to release her."
Ming Dao: "Ask you, do you like Hei Tao A?"
Zhang Nannan spoke, and the female police officer touched her earpiece, suddenly asking: "Do you like Black A?"
Wang Hui still lowered her head.
"But Black Peach A doesn't like you." The police officer added.
Wang Hui finally reacted a bit, lifting her head to look at the presiding female police officer.
The policewoman said: "Not only that, he doesn't trust you at all."
"You're talking nonsense." Wang Hui finally spoke up, her emotions somewhat agitated.
"Hmph, delivered right to the doorstep, yet nobody wants it." The policewoman sighed as she looked at the file and said: "As a woman, I both pity you and sympathize with you."
Unexpectedly, this remark had the opposite effect, and Wang Hui's emotions calmed down, and she lowered her head again without speaking.
"It can be inferred that Hei Tao A indeed doesn't trust Wang Hui, and Wang Hui has a secret crush on Hei Tao A. That's all... Let him go, Officer Zhang, who knows, we might still catch some fish."
"It's a pity." Zhang Nuonan sighed: "Unfortunately, the third young master who hired Wang Hui was killed by the prince, and we have no witnesses or evidence."
"Officer Zhang, I find it strange. As far as I know, Hei Tao A has not committed murder or robbery. His theft of documents is true, but the documents cannot be converted into a monetary value. Instead, his sentence should be based on the profits he gained from the theft."
"You think, Black Peach A is not a big shot, at least not currently. Right?" Zhang Nuo shook his head: "You're wrong about that. The previous Black Peach A was a globally wanted criminal, ruthless and merciless. Killed four people, injured countless others."
"But you can't determine what connection this new Black Ace has with the previous one."
"The previous Black Peach A was caught, but never spoke a word. The stolen money also couldn't be traced. Even by today's standards, it's an astronomical figure. Where did the money go? This case can be said to have only been solved halfway and is still pending in Interpol's investigation files. We speculate that the current Black Peach A is the son of the previous one. If we can catch him and compare DNA, we may be able to unravel the mystery of Black Peach A. Not just China, but also Korea and Japan are paying close attention to Black Peach A. There's a rumor that the previous Black Peach A was a North Korean spy, which has elevated this criminal case to a political level. I don't like politics, but one thing puzzles me: why did the prince want to kill Black Peach A? And what's with the 100,000 euros as bait?"
Yu Mingming said: "Politicians care more about the Ace of Spades, while police care more about the King."
"Ah, the original Black Peach A had some lives lost, but compared to the prince, it's not in the same league. The prince left behind evidence of at least 40 murder cases on the scene. 42 lives were lost. One of them was a patrol officer."
"We have at least obtained the prince's photo now."
"It's not that simple, Yu Ming. We've analyzed the prince's photo and something doesn't add up."
"Plastic surgery?"
"It's hard to say, but just now that patrol officer, his patrol car took a frontal photo of the prince. The prince disappeared for a year and reappeared again. Compared with our current photos, the skull comparison is 97% matching, but the facial feature comparison only has a 25% matching degree."
……
On Friday, Li Fu, Ni Qiu and Haina visited the dormitory together. Today is a day off, and tomorrow will be the start of Shen Wan's treasure hunt audition. At dinner, Wu Youyou's cooking skills won everyone's praise. Li Fu and Ni Qiu joked that they should move in quickly to get two free meals.
Yu Ming was drinking Coke and looking at the dishes. The dishes made Yu Ming suspicious of Wu Youyou's identity. Not to mention so many days, just today's dishes on the table are very characteristic. Mapo tofu is available all over the country, but this is the authentic Sichuan method. Spicy! While most areas' methods are spicy. And Fuzhou stir-fried white fruit, sweet. Even for people from Fujian, many cities won't add sugar when stir-frying white fruit.
A dish is authentic and normal, but if dishes from all over the world are all authentic, then there's a problem. There are two answers: Wu Youyou is a chef who has studied national cuisines. The second answer is that Wu Youyou has traveled to various places across the country, tasted these dishes, done some research, and created three or four of them with their own characteristics. Neither of these answers matches Wu Youyou's life trajectory.
This side knows that Yu Ming is not Nai Qiu, but Hai Na. As soon as Hai Na saw Yu Ming's expression and movements, she knew that Yu Ming had started to turn his brain around. However, she was used to being careless, picked up the beer and started blowing bottles with Nai Qiu. At the same time, she said: "Yu Ming, are you a man? Drink XX cola. Pour wine."
Yu Mingdao said: "Since women have started drinking liquor, men will drink cola instead. Youyou, I toast to you, your craftsmanship is really too good."
Wu Youyou smiled sweetly and replied: "Far from it, I just like cooking. Every day learning with the family chef, not talented enough, only learned a bit of skin and hair."
"No, no. Very good."
Du Qingqing said: "I propose, how about we play a game of truth?"
"Boss, this game is really lowbrow."
"It's a good idea to get young people together and have them speak their minds, which can also deepen their feelings."
"I like that." Haina stood up, took three new cups from the kitchen, and opened a bottle of white wine. She poured half a cup of white wine. Then she opened red wine and poured another half cup. Haina said: "Whoever doesn't tell the truth will drink. Whoever is exposed for lying will drink three cups."
"What game is being played?"
"Cut the cards." Haina turned around, picked up a deck of poker cards from the coffee table, drew one and covered it on the table: "Take turns being the banker, whoever guesses the suit correctly has to answer a true question from the banker. If no one guesses correctly, the banker drinks and steps down. Alright, let's start guessing."
Everyone reported a suit, Haina opened the card and drank a cup by herself. Next, Niu Qiu drank by himself, Li Fu drank by himself, Yu Ming drank by himself. The poker card was in Wu Youyou's hand.
Wu Youyou clumsily shuffled the cards, then drew one out and placed it face down on the table. Yu Ming smiled, recognizing the card - there was a faint fingernail mark on the corner, which he had made himself before dinner when teasing Haina with his hands and feet. "Hearts," he said.
"Follow the red peach."
Ní Qiū: "Follow again."
Du Qingqing sneered: "Do you want to play like this? I'll go with Hong Tao."
"I despise you." Haina said: "I'm with Spades."
Wu Youyou flipped over the card, and Yu Ming was shocked to find that it was actually the four of hearts.
Haina clapped her hands and laughed: "All hit, all hit. Youyou, ask away."
"Then I won't be polite." Wu Youyou collected her cards and asked: "Qingqing, how many boyfriends have you had?"
"Two." Du Qingqing replied. The crowd erupted in a chorus of whispers. Du Qingqing hastily added: "Two is very few, okay?"
Haina raised her hand: "I testify, it's true."
Wu Youyou looked at Nai Qiu: "Nai Qiu, how many girlfriends have you had?"
Ní Qiū was pointed at and said gloomily: "One."
