"Miss Police Officer! Are you still investigating the case? It's really hard, so late at night." Zhou Wangui rubbed his hands, as if he wanted to keep warm in this icy and snowy day. Qiao Xue looked this fat compatriot up and down, and after thinking for a while, she said, "It seems like a coincidence that you 'appeared' here." Zhou Wangui obviously heard the question in Qiao Xue's words and laughed quickly. He said: "No way! I just want to have a good rest. I saw the dead people today and I was quite nervous, so I came here to relax. Ah! The police officer should still want to investigate the case, right?! Well that's right! How about I introduce you to a place? We are all Chinese. There is a lot of information there. As long as you have the means, you can get almost any kind of information. " Qiao Xue has only been in New York for a year. , to be honest, I really don¡¯t know much about Chinatown in the United States. ??????????????????? But what is the feeling of this kind of "baoqing" that sounds completely Chinese? This guy probably doesn't want to come over to join in the fun, and then wants to get some information from him, right? If this is the case, his murder suspicion will suddenly become very serious. Qiao Xue nodded, smiled quietly, and expressed that she was happy to see the source of the news that the fat man was referring to. Zhou Wangui also seemed very excited, and immediately began to lead the way with nods and bows, leading Qiao Xue into this street that was crowded with various stalls and hawkers. Along with the shouts of Yiliuwan, Qiao Xue followed Zhou Wangui through the crowd. It can be seen that although this fat man does not look very good in shape. But this street still seems very familiar. I saw him constantly saying hello to the surrounding stalls. It's like he knows everyone here! "Come! Miss Police Officer. The Chinese New Year is coming soon, so I must recommend you to try the dumplings here! 'Dafugui Ace Dumplings'! This store is a store I definitely recommend. The dumplings they make are definitely first-class. Great! The shrimp inside is crystal clear, the meat filling is so filling, and the skin is so thin that you can directly see the filling inside, as if it is transparent! " Zhou Wangui pointed to a nearby restaurant with many tables and chairs set up on the street. At the dumpling stall, every table and stool was occupied, and the kitchen area where the dumplings were served was even steamier. As soon as the pot is lifted, white water vapor smoke fills the air like an eruption. The master who was rolling out the noodles looked like an old overseas Chinese in his early fifties, close to sixty. On this supposedly winter day, he was only wearing a simple chef's robe. Not to mention the cold, the surrounding snow flakes made it impossible to get within five meters of this stall! "Hey! Master Liu! Business is really good! I'm here to wish you a good year!" Zhou Wangui walked over and shouted to the old overseas Chinese. The old overseas Chinese who was rolling out the noodles looked up, snorted when he saw it was Zhou Wangui, and continued to roll out the noodles. Said¡ª¡ª "It's you again, kid. There is no place for you to eat and drink leisurely today. When will your bill be settled? A total of fifty dollars." Zhou Wangui was stunned. He quickly stretched out four fingers and said in a panic: "Eh?! Isn't it forty-five dollars?! Did I eat that much?" "No interest required! How long has it been on credit? Since the Double Ninth Festival Give me one to hold until the Spring Festival! It¡¯s not a big amount. Do you plan to hold it until the Dragon Boat Festival and the Double Ninth Festival, and then have a reincarnation?¡± The dumpling master picked up a handful of flour and pointed it at Zhou Wangui threw it over, but the fat man couldn't avoid it and could only laugh. Some Americans who were eating dumplings in the seats next to them also heard it and raised their heads. Maybe they can understand Chinese, but they may not be able to understand the meaning of the festival in this sentence. Zhou Wangui smiled, patted the flour on his chest, and said with a smile: "My monthly living expenses are a bit tight. I will give it before the Chinese New Year, I will give it! Isn't that right? I'm not here to bring you business. Ahthat" Zhou Wangui turned to Qiao Xue, as if he didn't know how to introduce Qiao Xue, who was now in plainclothes. "Hello, Boss Liu, my name is Qiao Xue. nypd." Qiao Xue patted the snowflakes on the ponytail on the back of her head and smiled at the store owner. Boss Liu was stunned and stopped what he was doing. Zhou Wangui on the side said quickly: "Yes, yes, that's it! Officer Qiao, this boss Liu's name is Fuxi, Liu Fuxi. It can be said that he has stayed in this Chinatown for most of his life! I came to New York back then. It was only because of Boss Liu¡¯s help that I was able to gain a foothold here. It can be said that it is correct to ask this boss about all the big and small things that happened in this Chinatown!¡± Qiao Xue nodded, then smiled at Boss Liu Fuxi and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know that Zhou Wangui dragged me here to ask you. I didn't disturb your business, right?" In the United States, the streets Almost all police officers who go to law enforcement are white-skinned or dark-skinned Europeans and Americans. Therefore, Liu Fuxi, who has a yellow skin like Qiao Xue and is from his own country, has not gotten used to it for a while. He couldn't help but rub his fingers and said: "I really didn't expect itZhou Wangui! You brat, what happened to you again? You actually called the NYPD?!" Zhou Wangui quickly raised his hand and expressed With a look of helplessness on her face, she said, "You're wronged, Boss Liu! I didn't commit any crime! Besides, I'm cooperating with the police in investigating the case!" Qiao Xue laughed, and in order to save the world, she asked straight to the point: " Boss Liu, I want to know, do you know this person?" Qiao Xue took out the photo of the victim Hao Yingxiong when he was alive and handed it to Liu Fuxi. After looking at the dumpling shop owner for a few times, he immediately froze and said, "Isn't this a hero?" Hearing that the dumpling shop owner suddenly called out the victim's name, Qiao Xue suddenly became energetic - " "What, do you know him?" Liu Fuxi nodded: "More than that? He eats dumplings here all the time! Chinatown is very big, but this road has the most food spots, so people nearby eat almost three meals a day. It was solved on this street. And the reason why I can recognize this person is because he especially likes to eat my "little mouse dumplings". Ah, the so-called little mouse dumplings are the ones that look more like mice. Dumplings. Before I came to the United States, I traveled across mainland China to learn how to make dumplings. Little mouse dumplings are a type of dumpling made in Tibet. "Sure enough they are related to Tibet. He especially liked to eat "little mouse dumplings", which further proves that the deceased Hao Yingxiong was a Tibetan. Qiao Xue continued to ask: "So, do you know who Hao Yingxiong has had a grudge with recently? No matter how small the grudge is, it's okay." Hearing this, Liu Fuxi suddenly became wary. He frowned, looked at the NYPD in front of him up and down, and asked a little tentatively: "Officer, what do you mean by thisHao Yingxiong, could it be?" Since tomorrow's The newspaper might just publish it, so Qiao Xue didn't have to hide it and said directly: "He is dead. He was killed in his room." The owner of the dumpling shop took a breath and rolled out the dough in his hands. There was a pause. Qiao Xue on the side turned her eyes and paused slightly when she saw a person eating dumplings on the seat next to her. This small movement made her hand rest on the gun bag habitually. "Huh Okay, I'm recovering" After about ten seconds, Liu Fuxi took a deep breath and recovered. He nodded and said: "As for the people who have a grudge against him I haven't seen it very often. Hero Hao did bring his friends to my place to eat dumplings several times. When they were eating dumplings, I saw The conversation between him and the others was quite enthusiastic, and it didn't look like there was any conflict. Umah! That's right, I remembered it!" Qiao Xue moved her feet slightly to the side, which made her originally. Turn sideways and face the diner slightly. At the same time, she pretended not to notice anything and asked, "What did you remember?" "Oh, that's right. Hero Hao came to my place to eat dumplings five days ago. He also brought three friends. . While they were eating, I saw that they were not as loud as before, but were talking in a very cautious manner, as if they were discussing something ulterior. " Qiao Xue: "That's true. Interesting. Hidden secret? " Liu Fuxi: "Yes, they stopped talking when I went to deliver dumplings to them. But when I got closer to them, I still heard something it seemed it seemed. What are you talking about Someone is coming to New York recently. I only heard these words, and I don¡¯t know the other details very well.¡± Qiao Xue recorded these words, nodded, and said, ¡°Then Boss Liu. "Do you still remember the appearance of the three friends Hao Yingxiong brought? If I show you the photos of those people again or bring them to you, will you be able to recognize them?" At this moment, Liu Fuxi nodded directly, extremely worried. He said with certainty: "Of course there is no problem with that! He brought those friends to my place to eat dumplings more than once or twice. I remember their faces very clearly! If they appear in front of me again, I will definitely remember them. them!" The shop owner directly patted his chest to assure himself, and his smile was so sure. Qiao Xue also smiled. At the same time, she also noticed that the diner had stood up, put down his money, and was about to run away. (To be continued . )
