Old Feng slapped his head, "Look at my eyesight. Wait five minutes and I'll serve it up for you!"
Five minutes later, Old Feng brought a steaming bowl of meat noodles. Not just for Li Chonglou, but all four of them had a bowl.
After they finished eating, Ah Dong received a message from his informant.
"Only two cars were found. The other one must be using a fake license plate."
"Give me the information on the one with the fake plate."
At a time like this, the one with the fake plate was naturally the real suspect. Ah Dong understood this, so he directly reported the model and features of the car with the fake plate.
"Boss Feng, I have to go now, I have things to do."
"Brother Hua, thank you so much for your trouble this time. If it weren't for me..."
Old Feng felt some guilt. If he hadn't asked Li Chonglou for help at the time, the other party wouldn't have ended up in such a predicament.
He understood that working for the Qing Gang could lead to eternal damnation if one was not careful.
Li Chonglou didn't take it to heart. As he was smiling and about to bid farewell, Old Feng suddenly spoke again.
"Brother Hua, I have a niece who is not yet married, and she's quite a good match for you. I'll introduce you when you come back."
Li Chonglou stumbled and quickly waved his hands, "No need, Boss Feng, I'm leaving now."
What a joke! His age was a manifestation. This talk of being a match almost made him vomit up the noodles he had just eaten.
At his age, still talking about matches, what kind of good match would it be?
No, even if it wasn't someone of the same age, I wouldn't want them!
Li Chonglou fled Old Feng's restaurant as if escaping. Watching his retreating back, Old Feng muttered to himself, "What misunderstanding does Brother Hua have?"
Taking Ah Dong and the other person with him, Li Chonglou first went to the police station entrance.
"Why are we here?"
Li Chonglou did not answer. Instead, he noted down the reporting hotline number at the entrance and then found a passerby on the street, paid them some money, and borrowed their phone.
Of course, the money used was Ah Dong's.
He edited a text message and sent it. After deleting the message, Li Chonglou returned the phone to the passerby.
"Thanks."
The passerby was bewildered, but since they received money, they didn't think much of it. It wasn't until half an hour later when several police officers suddenly stopped them that they realized they had been set up.
"Ah, I don't know anything, why are you taking me back?"
"This involves a murder case, please cooperate!"
The three police officers were firm and directly took the passerby back to the police station.
The message Li Chonglou sent was precisely to target the car with the fake license plate.
Ah Dong was puzzled, "Isn't this redundant work?"
Ah Hai next to him was also confused. Why would Li Chonglou need to do this? The police would naturally investigate.
Li Chonglou chuckled, "No wonder Sister Feng didn't assign this matter to you. You're still too young."
The two were immediately displeased.
"Then tell us what's the trick behind this?"
Li Chonglou said calmly, "It's just a murder case. There are at least several such cases piled up in the police archives. Without clear clues, do you think they'll take it seriously?"
"They will investigate, but with their procedures, it will take a day or two to reach this point. I don't have that much time to wait."
It wasn't looking down on the authorities in Shangjing, but having followed Lin Qianqian, he was very familiar with the official investigation process. Normally, they would first file a case, then investigate surveillance, and then check current leads. Only after finding no direction would they truly start investigating the matter of the fake license plate.
Of course, if the police department had sufficient manpower, they would conduct both investigations simultaneously. But this police department had only dozens of square feet, and having more than ten people would be a lot. If they really followed step by step, Li Chonglou estimated it would take a day or two before they even got to the main point.
The two exchanged glances.
This guy really has some skills!
Without paying attention to them anymore, Li Chonglou found a place that was both safe and offered a view of the police station to sit down.
"Notify your informants. Tell them to inform you when the people leave, and it's best to find out their destination in advance."
At this moment, the key was to be one step ahead. The authorities had their own methods, and once there was a hint of a clue, they would be much faster than him. Therefore, what Li Chonglou needed to do next was to wait for the rabbit.
As expected, although the passerby couldn't find any information about Li Chonglou and the other two, the suddenly appearing report information also caused the police officers in the sub-bureau to focus on the car with the fake license plate first.
Before they could act, Li Chonglou had already received intelligence from his informant.
"Guo Hui Used Car Dealership?"
"Let's go."
Li Chonglou immediately hailed a taxi and, before the sub-bureau's men could act, rushed to the secluded used car dealership.
Most car dealerships are located in the city center or town center to make it convenient for customers. However, this dealership called Guo Hui was built at the foot of a small hill, several kilometers away from the town, clearly a place that specialized in receiving stolen vehicles.
However, it was convenient to get things done in such a place. Li Chonglou once again used his old method.
This time, however, he brought Ah Dong and the other person with him.
Three masked figures suddenly rushed into the dealership. Before an employee could react, Li Chonglou knocked him out with a hand chop.
"Nobody move!"
The two men from the Qing Gang were experienced in their actions and didn't need Li Chonglou to instruct them. They immediately took control of everyone, giving them no chance to call for help or resist.
Within a minute, a man with a large belly was kneeling before Li Chonglou.
"Don't kill me, I'll give you whatever you want, I'll give you everything!"
The owner of the dealership thought they were robbers and was so scared that his face turned pale and his body trembled uncontrollably.
Li Chonglou didn't waste time with him and directly asked about the car with the fake license plate.
The owner was stunned for a moment. Seeing Li Chonglou produce a short knife from somewhere, he suddenly jolted.
"I don't recognize the person either. He just said his name was Brother Tu, and he's not local."
"Do you have his picture?"
"The surveillance cameras should be able to find it."
"Take me there!"
Time was a bit tight, because when they arrived, the sub-bureau was already preparing. They had at most about half an hour.
Fortunately, the owner was very cooperative, and in less than ten minutes, Li Chonglou found the target person's image.
Then, to everyone's surprise, Li Chonglou directly destroyed all the data inside.
"Ah, this."
The owner felt heartbroken over his newly purchased memory card. He had bought the most expensive one for convenience and planned not to replace it again.
Ah Dong and Ah Hai were confused as to why they didn't leave this evidence for the authorities.
After doing all this, Li Chonglou intentionally left a message in front of the owner before leaving with the two.
"Should be safe now, this guy is unreliable."
Less than ten minutes after the three of them left, the sub-bureau's men had already arrived.
