Chapter 2378: ：Smoke and money

Since the young man on the motorcycle said that, Ye Chen and the village chief Tao got in his car and went to a food stall by the river in Dashi Town.
Right there, Ye Chen smelled a strong fragrance.
Ye Chen and Village Chief Tao got off the motorcycle. The young man riding the motorcycle put the car away. The three people found their seats and sat down. Soon a middle-aged waiter came over with a menu.
Ye Chen looked at the menu and found that the price was not much different from those of the food stalls in Shanghai. He found it strange that in such a poor place, the prices are so high.
However, he still saw many guests sitting around eating.
"Whatever you want, as long as you can eat it." Ye Chen said to the village chief Tao and the young man riding a motorcycle.
Village Chief Tao and the young men on motorcycles usually have trouble eating a good, rich meal. Now that they heard Ye Chen say that, they hurriedly ordered a few good dishes.
Originally, the village chief Tao and the young men on motorcycles wanted to order local rice wine and beer, but Ye Chen felt that drinking was a mistake, and Dafang County would have to watch Tao Chengcai at that time, so they told them not to drink.
After the mayor Tao and the young man riding a motorcycle ordered the dishes, the waiter and aunt went over to order the menu. Ye Chen heard what the guests sitting next door were saying, but because it was the local dialect, he listened at all. I don’t understand. As for the village chief Tao and the young man riding a motorcycle, he understood very well.
Village Chief Tao looked at Ye Chen and said, "I didn't expect the Chengcai incident to have such a big impact. Now everyone in the town knows that he killed someone."
As the saying goes, good things don’t go out, bad things spread for thousands of miles, Tao Chengcai’s murder and case seems to have been reported in Dashi Town for a long time, and it is not the third day. Ye Chen also knows that Dashi Town is not large and the population is not large. Big, one pass ten, ten pass a hundred, then everyone in the town will know.
While sitting here and waiting, the village chief Tao and the young man on a motorcycle took out Chinese cigarettes and smoked there. Looking at the intoxicated expressions of the two, Ye Chen didn't know if it was really that good?
"Ye Chen, are you related in the city?" Village Chief Tao asked.
"In what city?" Ye Chen asked.
"Shanghai!" said Village Chief Tao.
Ye Chen smiled and said, "A little bit."
"However, our side is Guizhou, and it is Bijie's side. I am afraid that your relationship will not be enough." Village Chief Tao said.
Ye Chen knew the same, but Village Chief Tao didn't know that Ye Chen knew many people, but he didn't want to use those relationships now.
Because he still didn't know whether Tao Chengcai's crimes were really crimes, he would naturally not ask for a relationship hastily. Moreover, Ye Chen felt that if Tao Cheng didn't commit a crime, he wouldn't have to rely on anything.
The three of them sat here and waited for ten minutes, and the dishes they had just ordered were delivered one after another.
Ye Chen found that the dishes and the taste of cooking here are much different from those in Shanghai. He thinks it is so-so, but Mr. Tao and the young man riding a motorcycle are eating with relish.
When the village chief Tao and the young people on motorcycles were full, and while picking their teeth with toothpicks, Ye Chen called the waiter and aunt to pay for the bill. It cost almost two hundred yuan, which was not very expensive.
However, they are very satisfied with Village Chief Tao.
After sitting there and resting for ten minutes, Ye Chen said, "Go to Dafang County early to see Tao Chengcai's situation."
Village Chief Tao and Ye Chen got into the young man riding a motorcycle. The other's car was running out of gas. They had to fill up the gas at the gas station and then head towards Dafang County.
After refueling at the gas station, the two of them rode their motorcycles towards Dafang County, about 20 to 30 kilometers away.
But because it is a section of national road, it is relatively easy to walk, and it takes about an hour to come to the county seat of Dafang County.
Ye Chen didn't know where the Public Security Bureau of Dafang County was. Young people riding motorcycles had come to test for a motorcycle driver's license before. Knowing where they were, Ye Chen asked him to drive directly.
When they came to the gate of the County Public Security Bureau, Ye Chen and Village Chief Tao got out of the car and asked the young man on a motorcycle to wait outside. He and Village Chief Tao went to the Public Security Bureau. Outside the door, Ye I saw several police cars in the morning, and the lights on the police cars were still flashing.
When Village Chief Tao came here, he was a little scared. At the police station in the town, he didn't have much.
However, when I came here, I was a little scared.
Ye Chen and Village Chief Tao ignored the security guard outside the door and went straight inside. While inside, Ye Chen saw police officers in uniforms and ordinary people in ordinary clothes coming in and out.
At the beginning, Ye Chen and Village Chief Tao didn't know whom to look for, but when they saw the house number hanging in the door of the office, Ye Chen also knew the function of these offices.
Ye Chen knocked on the door of an office casually, and when he entered inside, he saw a young male police officer in uniform and a young female police officer inside.
When the two saw Ye Chen and Village Chief Tao coming in, they just looked up and didn't look much. Especially when they saw the old-fashioned Village Chief Tao wearing a straw hat, they felt that the old man didn't know it was. Which village, whether there is any contradiction with the next door, come to report.
"If you have any disputes with the village next door, report to the other office." The female police officer said.
"Comrade, I am not here to report the crime, I am here to find someone." Ye Chen said.
"Who are you looking for?" the young male police officer asked lazily, thinking he had someone familiar with him in the police station.
When Ye Chen took out a box of Chinese cigarettes and handed it to the other party, the other party did not avoid it, took it directly, and asked, "Who are you looking for?"
"The one I'm looking for should have committed a crime in Dashi Town yesterday and was sent to the County Public Security Bureau." Ye Chen said.
It turned out to be looking for these people, the young male police officer and young female police officer already understood.
"Who are you from the suspect?" the young male police officer asked.
"His sister's friend." Ye Chen said.
"What did the suspect commit?" The young male policeman had already lit the Chinese cigarette and asked.
"I heard it was murder and rape," Ye Chen said.
Upon hearing this, the young male police officer and the young female police officer felt that this was a major case, which was naturally different from just now. If it was just a case of stealing chickens and dogs, the two could still talk to Ye Chen more, but when they heard that it was the biggest criminal case of this kind, the two seemed to ignore it.
Looking at the expressions of these two young police officers, Ye Chen knew that just giving a pack of cigarettes to the young male police officer would not work.
Ye Chen didn't need Village Chief Tao to prompt at all. He took out a Chinese cigarette from his bag and handed it to the male police officer.
The male police officer seemed a little surprised, there seemed to be nothing, looked at the Chinese cigarette, and then took it into his desk drawer.
"What you said is a bit difficult to handle." The young male police officer said.
However, Ye Chen didn't say anything to him. The other party thought it was Ye Chen who came to find a relationship and asked for help.
"I just want to see my friend's brother first." Ye Chen said.
The young male police officer still looked very embarrassed, while the young female police officer was sitting there, pretending to call or something.
Ye Chen knew that this was not enough. He took out four stacks of renminbi from his pocket, a total of four thousand yuan. According to the two young police officers, it was naturally two thousand per person.
Seeing Ye Chen taking out the money, the expressions of these two young police officers were completely different from just now.
