Chapter Eight: Friends of the Dead
I took a taxi to the intersection of No. 2, Nanjing West Road, and turned left at the intersection for about a minute and saw a five-star hotel, which is Nanji Bar.
I was wearing a SpongeBob short-sleeved pair and a pair of cropped pants, and was dressed very ordinary.
The bottom of Nanji Bar is a kTV, and the top is a suite. There are many people in the bar, including all kinds of men and women, as well as many "ladies" and dancers. Nanji Bar is large in scale, and people who come here are either upper class or special lives.
I entered the bar and walked over naturally to a "maid" to greet me.
"Miss" naturally held my wrist, looked at me with a charming smile on the corner of her mouth before speaking: "Mr. I am not a regular customer, may I ask if I live in a house or drink?"
"Well," I looked at her. She really looked beautiful. Unfortunately, she was just a lady at the bar, but she should make a lot of money from working here, right? Unfortunately, she missed her eyes. I was not a rich man. I pulled back her arm and smiled apologetically at her: "I'm sorry, Miss, I don't live in a house or drink, I came here to find someone."
"Looking for someone?" Surprisingly, she was not angry like all "ladies", because she lost her "fat meat". She still had a gentle smile on her face, "Who are you looking for sir? Maybe I will know."
"Well, you must know. His name is Wansha, and he is the bartender here."
"Wan Ji? Are you looking for him? How did you know him?"
She looked at me with a questioning look on her face.
"Uh-Yes, I'm looking for Wan Ka, is there any problem?"
She shook her head and said in disappointment: "It's nothing, I just think you can't know someone like Wan Li. He's there."
She pointed at a young man in the middle of the counter.
The young man's head was dyed with white hair, and he was obviously not a good person at first glance. His eyes were also wandering around some beautiful women. However, his bartending movements were smooth and skillful, and he was an excellent bartender at first glance.
"Is he just Wan Wei?" It's really impossible to imagine that an outstanding student like Zhang Xianying would have a brother in such a "society". It is really necessary to make a decision again.
"Of course he is Wan Ji. Who doesn't know him at the customer staff of Nan Ji Bar?" She rolled her eyes disdainfully, with contempt in her eyes. "Sir, you don't know him when you see him, and it's impossible for you to know a hooligan like Wan Ji."
"Anyway, sir, you don't know how dirty Wan Li is. What he likes most is to look at the beautiful women who come here. Several rich wives had an affair with him. He took advantage of the beautiful women who were drunk and the man was not around, so he tricked others into the bed. Later, after having sex, those women did not dare to say that they would be blackmailed by Wan Li. Do you think Wan Li is a human? If Wan Li hadn't been the manager here, he would have been fired long ago."
"Sir, although I am just a peddler, I still don't want you to make friends with people like Wan Ya."
I looked at the young man with lustful eyes in the middle of the counter and couldn't get back to his senses for a long time. Didn't he sue him? But thinking about it, for those ignorant people, reputation is more important than legal power.
I nodded to the "lady", thanked her for her kindness, and then walked to the bar under her blade.
Wanke mixed wine and glanced at me with his eyes lightly, and asked in a bad tone: "What are you drinking?"
I knew he looked down on me, after all, I was wearing clothes that were not as ordinary as usual.
I didn't laugh, and looked at him with an equally indifferent expression: "I don't drink, I'm Zhang Xianying's friend, I'll talk to you about something if you have something to do."
"I'm not available." He put the prepared wine on the stage and looked at me with his eyes squinted. "It's worthy of being Ah Ying's friend. No wonder he disliked me back then. Don't you know? I, Wan Ke, and Zhang Xianfeng, have no relationship."
"Zhang Xianying is dead."
There was a sound of glass breaking, Wan Ke lowered his head, his tuft of white hair covered his face, I couldn't see what he looked like, but I heard a dull laughter coming from his chest, and then he spoke in a cold tone: "Zhang Xianying is dead, it's okay to die, China's 1.3 billion people are under too much pressure. What's the use of telling me about these? I have nothing to do with Zhang Xianying?"
"Just because he didn't go out in society with you, did you abandon such a friend? If Zhang Xianying had left with you, today he would be despised by society like you. Do you know how Zhang Xianying died? He was killed. Do you have no feeling at all?"
"I don't understand what you are talking about, so what do you think I should feel? Everyone has their own fate. Whether Zhang Xianying was killed or died naturally, it's all my fault, it's just his life."
I really doubt that Wanke and Zhang Xianying were really friends before? The possibility that Wanke would hate Zhang Xianying as the murderer has increased by at least ten percentages.
I sighed deeply, wondering if the two of them would become like this if they had a conflict with the people around me in the future. I pinched my nose bridge, and I think I would not treat my friends like this, nor would my friends do this.
"Okay, that's it, that's gone."
I left the counter and stopped a "maid" and asked Wan Ke about his movements in the past month. In the end, Wan Ke was eliminated. Before and after Zhang Xianying's accident, to be precise, Wan Ke was never absent every day during this work, so he could not have enough time to kill Zhang Xianying and travel between the two cities in Nanjing and Hangzhou. He was not the murderer who killed Zhang Xianying, but the relationship between him and Zhang Xianying was really heartbreaking.
The location of Nanji Bar can be said to be the golden road of transportation. It is really not very smart to think that the boss who built the bar here is not very smart. Because there are many vehicles coming and going here and busy traffic, it is easy to cause traffic accidents. There are few other businesses around, few people and many traffic. However, what is surprising is that the business of this bar is so good, which makes people have to wonder whether I am an amateur or the boss is stupid.
I stood outside the bar and watched the vehicle galloping by. My hand was suddenly pulled by a warm and warm thing. I was startled and looked back and saw that it was the "lady" who had just greeted me in the bar.
I pulled my hand back awkwardly and stared at her and asked, "Miss, do you have something to do with me?"
"My surname is Lord, and my name is Lord Ye."
"Ah? Homepage? Bamboo Leaf?" And this strange name? Homepage or Bamboo Leaf?
"The Lord of the Lord, the Father Yan, the Father's Leaves."
Nodded, I understood this time, it was neither the homepage of a computer and a mobile phone nor the bamboo leaves of a bamboo.
"Sir, where do you work? Where do you live? I have wanted to quit. Please introduce me to a job."
"..." I was completely confused by this woman named "Homepage". I always felt that she was dependent on me because she was not close to her.
Before I could speak, the "Homepage" spoke again: "What's your name sir? I've only been in this bar in the past month and have not slept with anyone. Don't worry, I can do the serious work. If I didn't have a place to stay, I wouldn't have gone to the bar to sit on the table."
"That..." I really don't know what to say.
"Sir, please help me. I'm also a serious girl. I don't want to be on the table. I just want a job. Don't worry, I'm not a liar. If I lie to you, you can call the police to arrest me."
"Miss, it's not that I don't want to help you. I don't work in Nanjing, and I live in someone else's house."
"It's okay, I don't mind. Wouldn't you just take me to your city?"
There is a saying that is true: women can't get rid of others when they get pestered. Especially those who are shameless like "homepage".
"Homepage" followed me all the way to Zhang Xianying's house. The first thing Zhang Xianying's mother said when she saw me coming back was: "Oh, Officer Jun, this is your girlfriend, so beautiful, young people nowadays have such a high-minded vision. But an outstanding man like Officer Xiangjun should be matched with such a beautiful woman!"
Fortunately, the "homepage" is a little self-aware. Looking at my face that is so smelly that it can no longer smell bad, I smiled at Zhang Xianying's mother and explained: "Auntie, you misunderstood. My husband and I are just ordinary friends. How can I deserve an excellent man like Mr.?"
Zhang's mother said: "I deserve it! I think you and Officer Jun are not ordinary matches!"
"Homepage" said: "Auntie was joking. Even if I like Mr., Mr. won't like me."
“…”
If you ask what it feels like to die, I want to say that's it. I'm really unlucky. I just fell into the hands of that woman Li Qi, and now another woman called "Homepage" comes.
I won’t be afraid of being a peach blossom, right? Why didn’t I see a beautiful woman supporting me when I was in Hangzhou?
Self-reflection, in the end, isn’t it just because I’m stupid and I’m easy to bully? When I was in Hangzhou, Liancheng and others protected me, so no one came to cheat me.
Amid the compliments of the two women, I retreated and returned to Zhang Xianying's room.
I live in Zhang Xianying's room. Firstly, it was my own request, and secondly, the house rented by the Zhang family was not big. Apart from the sand, there was only Zhang's mother, Zhang's father and his wife's room and Zhang Xianying's room had a bed.
He laid himself in a "big" character on the bed. The walls of the room were hung with photos of Zhang Xiansheng during his lifetime, a very sunny boy. Since Zhang Xiansheng passed away, Zhang's mother and father have never come in again. He is afraid of seeing his son's happy and sunny smile on the wall. Who can accept that such a good boy was killed? Perhaps in this world, there is only Zhang Xiansheng's best friend, Wan Jie.
