The Superb Captain in the City

Li Yifei squinted his eyes, took out a cigarette, lit it, and threw the rest of the cigarette on the table again, watching these creditors boast that Texas Hold'em did win fast and lose fast, and Li Yifei was not unheard of.

When these people finished speaking, Li Yifei chuckled and said, "Where did you play?"

The second question is directed at the center of the conflict. He is not busy today and would like to chat with these people for a while.

When Li Yifei asked about the location of the gambling, these people were silent for a moment. The old man laughed and pretended to cough, and said: "Um... Chief Li, this question is a bit difficult to answer. We actually don't have a fixed location. , Just gather a few people to find a place to gamble, and retreat when you are done, so as not to be caught. After all, gambling is very strict now."

After hearing this, Li Yifei shook his head and said, "How do I feel that a fixed location is safe."

When a few people heard this, a man said, "Clan Chief Li, you are really wrong. It is now popular and mobile. Today is at sea, tomorrow in the car, and the day after tomorrow in the hotel. Take a shot and change place. I'm not afraid of being caught."

Li Yifei uttered a loud voice and said, "Hehe, that's my ignorance."

"No, no, I can't say that. We still play a little bit, just love to play, and bet little. Unlike a big man like Patriarch Li, the game is even higher." Someone began to tout.

Li Yifei was noncommittal and did not answer the conversation. The smile on the man's face gradually froze, and finally he did it twice, covering the past.

After about a minute of silence, Li Yifei asked the third question: "So, can you tell me, where is my mother-in-law?"

As soon as this question was asked, the room suddenly became quiet, and breathing stopped for a while. Li Yifei noticed the changes in the expressions of each creditor. After a glance, Li Yifei was not in a hurry, waiting for these people to answer.

After a moment of silence, a man smiled and looked at Li Yifei and said, "Clan Chief Li, you asked this question. I don’t know how to answer it. We played at the gaming table a few times. After signing the IOU, we didn’t see you. It's over, but we don't worry about it, because the patriarch and the Li family's credibility is here, it's impossible to fall back on the account, but your mother-in-law, I really haven't seen it."

The corner of Li Yifei's mouth was curved, and he nodded with a smile, looked at other people, and said, "Have you never seen my mother-in-law?"

All of them shook their heads, claiming that they had never seen each other. The old man touched his chin in a serious way, rubbed his chin for a while, and said, "I played with her for the last time, and then I took her to the provincial city in a car. I haven't seen it afterwards. At the time, I asked her why she didn't live at her son-in-law's house, but went to the provincial capital instead. She only said something was wrong."

Seven gambling friends have never met Li Xinyue's mother. They all say they are unfamiliar, but they are willing to lend her tens of millions of gambling funds. This is a wonderful thing.

Li Yifei opened his eyes and said, "I’m telling you that we have lost contact now. We can’t contact my mother-in-law, and there is no news from my mother-in-law. It seems to have evaporated from the world suddenly. If you have news, it must be Tell me."

"Ah, definitely, if we see her again, we will definitely tell you!"

"Yes, gambling is gambling, but the friendship is still there!" said a woman.

A kind of creditors slapped their chests to make sure, their eyes were looking at Li Yifei, or waiting for him to take out the checkbook, but Li Yifei was not in a hurry. He sighed and said, "I don’t know what this old lady thinks. Good day. However, she has to gamble. I have heard her say that she hates gambling the most, saying that the gambling table is full of smokers and drunkards, making the smoke and miasma, so it is not annoying. How long has it been, she herself started to gamble!"

Li Yifei seemed to be talking to himself. A few words made the faces of those creditors very unnatural. They looked at each other and said: "In fact, it’s nothing. We don’t smoke too much. Even if we smoke, we probably go out. I won’t be too noisy to bet!"

"Haha, isn't it?" Li Yifei asked back, before waiting for the other party to answer, he said: "Give me the IOU, I will check it first."

The old man said immediately: "I'll come first. I can trust Chief Li, here, this is an IOU."

He put the IOU in front of Li Yifei, turned and walked back to his position.

Li Yifei took the IOU and looked at it in turn. There was nothing on the back, but two lines on the front. Someone owed Zhu Jianqiang XXX million Hua Xia coins on a certain day, a certain year, and a certain day. He allowed Qi to go to Li’s family to find his daughter and son-in-law. money. In the next handprint and signature, Li Yifei had never seen Li Xinyue's mother's words, let alone the authenticity of this fingerprint.

Of course, Li Yifei didn't need to check the authenticity, because Li Yifei already knew everything.

He looked at the IOU for a few seconds, put the IOU on the table, gently smoothed the wrinkles on it with his fingers, tapped his fingers, and said, "This is Zhu Jianqiang's, how about yours?"

Several other people looked at them and hesitated. Li Yifei took the IOU and gave the old man a check. What did he mean?

Just now the woman couldn't help it, and took the initiative to hand over the IOU and said, "It's up to me a priori."

The IOU was offered with both hands, very respectful, and Li Yifei took it with one hand. She didn't think there was anything wrong with the other party.

After a glance, the signatures on the IOU were all similar, and the final signature and handprint were a little different, but they were roughly the same.

Nodding lightly, Li Yifei put the IOU on the table again, next to the IOU just now, and then looked at other people.

This time everyone hesitated even more, and wondered what Li Yifei meant, and why he just received the IOU and didn't give money.

"That, Chief Li, or else, you settle the money first, so I can go home, don't delay your lunch." The first old man who handed over the IOU couldn't help but said.

Li Yifei only seemed to see him, smiled, and said: "Don't worry, I am not very familiar with my mother-in-law's words, so I need to compare them one by one. The words can be imitated, but if the seven signatures are not bad, then it is one. Human characters. Besides, there are handprints. This thing should be compared. If according to your statement, you don’t know, are unfamiliar, and you didn’t bet with my mother-in-law at the same time, then the handprints and characters should not be the same. Signed and pressed together.

Several people were stunned, and nodded subconsciously, but they felt something was wrong. After a little startled, one of them said: "That's it, then... leave it to Chief Li. Anyway, so many people are watching, Chief Li. There is absolutely no denial."

He said that, but he had no bottom in his heart, but he had to hand it over to Li Yifei.

After the seven IOUs were gathered, Li Yifei looked down for a few minutes. Two minutes later, Li Yifei looked at these people with a smile, and lightly clicked on the seven IOUs with his finger, and slowly asked: "IOU. His words and handprints should be true."

"Yes, it's absolutely true. It belongs to your mother-in-law, who pressed it with her thumb."

"Hmm, mine too."

These people yelled, feeling a little eager in their hearts. Seeing that the IOUs were gone, Li Yifei refused to pay.

Li Yifei nodded and said, "So, a new question has appeared."

As Li Yifei paused, the breathing of several creditors stagnated. Looking at Li Yifei, they stared and asked, "What's the question?"

"These pieces of paper are different, but all the pens are the same, the pen is the same, and the ink in the pen is the same. Is it possible that my mother-in-law should carry a pen with her to practice signing? But as far as I know, The price of this gel pen is very low. You can buy one or even a few for a few yuan or more than ten dollars!"

Li Yifei's words changed the expressions of several people, and one of them became pale, and looked at Li Yifei in amazement.

"Let me ask you, when you signed this IOU, in what environment, you don't need to say the location, just tell me the environment." Li Yifei pointed to the woman and said,

The other party hesitated, stood up and said, "It was in the hotel that day, yes, it was in the hotel."

"Oh!" Li Yifei suddenly grimace, patted the table, and said, "You will have printer-specific paper in your hotel? This kind of paper is also very expensive, several times more expensive than ordinary printing paper, but you said it was in the hotel. in?"

"It just happened!" The woman became weak, and some did not dare to face Li Yifei.

Li Yifei didn't go after him, looked at another man, and said, "What about you, where did I sign the IOU? I don't want to be specific."

The man swallowed, and said, "We were on a small yacht and went to sea that time."

"Yachts are still rich." Li Yifei smiled, suddenly disappeared, staring at each other, and said: "How can there be the smell of barbecue on the yacht? Could it be that you are not going to gamble, but to BBQ? "

"Uh... it's just leisure, everyone is tired from playing, so let's have a barbecue together, eat and drink." The other party replied.

Li Yifei nodded again, did not delve into it, looked at the old man, and asked: "You are old and healthy. The smell of lubricating oil on this paper is still fruity."

Lubricant, fruity? What Li Yifei was talking about was condoms. The old man immediately understood. His face was a little unnatural, but he still said, "Um... it has nothing to do with the debt. I put them in my pocket and put condoms in my pocket, so naturally there will be excess. the taste of."

"All explanations are reasonable, but..." After Li Yifei paused, these creditors were obviously breathing together, waiting for Li Yifei to ask. Two seconds later, Li Yifei said, "Why does every IOU have the smell of barbecue? Have you all eaten barbecue? Or after you went back yesterday, everyone had a happy dinner together? However, I remember that you went away separately, you and you were in a group, and they were in groups of three. In the end, the two of you left alone with the same direction. It’s all different. That’s all about the barbecue, and it’s all roast beef. This is... a bit too coincidental. How do you explain this?"
