I asked for a separate private room and the sound insulation effect was very good.

Hu Pingtao placed a copy of the diary on the table and asked bluntly: "Ms. Chen, have you ever read your daughter's diary?"

He no longer uses honorifics, and his tone has changed significantly from before.

Hu Pingtao was a little angry. This matter was very different from what Guo Lingyu said at first.

Chen Miaoyun was sitting on the chair, holding a small spoon with her fingers, her little finger raised high, her posture elegant.

Hu Pingtao noticed that she drank black coffee without adding milk or sugar.

She picked up the coffee, took a sip, and placed it gently on the porcelain plate. Her movements were smooth and she controlled her strength without making any sound.

"Is this why you asked me out?" Chen Miaoyun's tone was a bit unkind. It was more of a question than a question.

Hu Pingtao repeated the previous question: "I want to know, have you ever read this diary?"

Chen Miaoyun frowned, looked at Hu Pingtao, and said unhappily: "The reason why I asked you to come to Hong Kong City is to help me solve the problem. As for whether I have read this diary, it seems to have nothing to do with the problem itself.

"

Hu Pingtao didn't care about the other party's attitude: "You are wrong. Whether you look at it or not has a lot to do with it."

Chen Miaoyun was angered by his tough tone, and her voice became louder involuntarily: "What do you mean by that?"

Hu Pingtao said seriously: "You didn't explain the situation to me, and you concealed some secrets."

"That's my business." Chen Miaoyun said coldly: "I have the right to personal privacy, and there is no need to disclose some things to you."

Zhang Wanhe quickly stood up to smooth things over: "Don't be like this, everyone should stop saying a few words. We are here to solve problems, not to quarrel."

Chen Miaoyun was obviously afraid of Zhang Wanhe. She suppressed the anger in her heart, picked up the silver spoon on the tea tray and continued to stir the coffee. She glanced sideways at Hu Pingtao and sarcastically said: "I have never seen anyone like you. Obviously.

I entrust you with things, but in the end you have to ask me for everything. If I can solve it myself, what else do I need from you?"

Hu Pingtao sneered disdainfully: "Entrustment? You are so embarrassed to say such a thing. Have you paid? Have you and I signed an entrustment agreement?"

Chen Miaoyun didn't expect that he would actually fight back from this aspect. She was speechless for a moment, but she was unwilling to back down like this. She gritted her teeth and said sarcastically: "Are all mainland police officers like you? If you don't have the ability, you still have to do it.

That's a big lie. If I had known this was the case, I wouldn't have asked A Ling to help me, I would have just found a private detective in Hong Kong City."

Hu Pingtao was not angry. He pushed the copied diary on the table towards Chen Miaoyun and said seriously: "Okay! I don't care about this matter."

He immediately turned to Zhang Wanhe: "Brother Zhang, could you please help me book a flight ticket back to Yunnan Province tonight or tomorrow."

When Zhang Wanhe saw that something was going to happen, he quickly walked to Hu Pingtao and repeatedly tried to persuade him: "Xiaohu, don't be like this. Don't be angry. Miss Chen doesn't mean any harm."

Chen Miaojun looked sideways at Hu Pingtao and snorted sarcastically from his nostrils: "Who are you acting for? You want to leave before the problem is solved. Do you really think there is such a lucrative commission fee? Mainland police

With such a low income, this money is very important to you. Don’t say I didn’t remind you—A-Ling won’t give you a penny until the matter is resolved!”

Hu Pingtao frowned and asked in confusion: "What do you mean by this?"

"I am your client." Chen Miaoyun crossed her legs and continued to slowly stir the coffee with elegant movements. Her expression was cold, and her sarcasm was stronger than before: "It costs money to hire people to do things. Although A Ling

I invited you from the mainland to help, but in fact, I am the one paying."

Hu Pingtao had some understanding, but the words coming out of Chen Miaoyun's mouth at this moment were very different from his original thoughts. He couldn't help but said: "Ms. Chen, you seem to have made a mistake!"

"What's wrong?" Chen Miaoyun raised her head, deliberately raised her gaze, and squinted at Hu Pingtao from a bird's-eye view, with anger in her tone: "The reason why I issued the commission is to help my daughter solve the problem. You

Fortunately, after checking again and again, it turned out to be on me."

Hu Pingtao narrowed his eyes and felt confused: "I don't understand what you are talking about."

The anger in Chen Miaoyun's heart became even more intense. She put down the silver spoon, crossed her hands across her chest, leaned back, and looked dissatisfied in her eyes: "Do you understand the rules of entrustment? I'll let you check it out.

Why does Qiu have convulsions in the middle of the night? All you have to do is find out the reason. You don’t need to interfere in other things, and it’s not your turn to meddle in others’ affairs.”

Hearing this, Zhang Wanhe immediately understood and his expression was greatly relaxed. He smiled and persuaded: "Ms. Chen, it turns out that you are angry because of this. Haha, you are overthinking. In fact..."

Hu Pingtao interrupted Zhang Wanhe, waved his hand at him, and fixed his sharp eyes on Chen Miaoyun: "Minding your own business? What are you referring to?"

Chen Miaoyun was angry. She tapped the photocopied diary on the table with her slender fingers: "If you have the ability, just check it yourself. Why do you want Xinqiu's diary from me?"

Zhang Wanhe became anxious when he heard this and quickly interjected: "Ms. Chen, you obviously gave me this diary, how can you blame Xiaohu?"

Chen Miaoyun's eyes were full of anger. She gritted her teeth and then let go: "If you hadn't repeatedly asked me, how could I have taken out Xinqiu's diary? I wouldn't have..."

At this point, she paused, stared at Hu Pingtao with extremely fierce eyes, and said coldly: "This matter is over here. If you have not completed my commission, you will not get any reward.

But for A Ling’s sake, I can help you buy a ticket to leave Hong Kong City.”

Looking at this plump, arrogant middle-aged woman who was trying to control her emotions and look as noble as possible, Hu Pingtao suddenly smiled.

His laughter was loud, flamboyant, and even a little unscrupulous.

The anger in Chen Miaoyun's heart swelled sharply with the laughter, and she asked angrily: "What's so funny? Where do you think this is?"

Zhang Wanhe also looked at Hu Pingtao with a puzzled face, and asked inexplicably: "Xiaohu, what's wrong with you?"

After half a minute, Hu Pingtao stopped laughing.

"I smiled at you on purpose." He looked at Chen Miaoyun and said in a joking tone: "If I guessed correctly, you have already read this diary."

"You didn't read it before, but today... No, it should have been after Brother Zhang got the copy from you."

"You made a lot of mistakes."

"You are very confident... No, you should be overconfident, which led to various things that happened later."

"You are very arrogant. You think you have this qualification. In fact, you are just a scum in front of me. You have nothing but a skin, not even a beautiful one. As for the inside... I am a civilized person and don't want to be in this kind of place.

, In this kind of situation, especially swearing in front of Brother Zhang.”

"By the way: You know nothing and know nothing. So don't judge others by the standards you set."

Chen Miaojun sat on the chair without saying a word. A huge blush spread quickly on her face, which was a sign that her mood was changing violently and her anger was rising sharply. Her hands were tightly clenched, and her beautiful earrings were also because of her body.

Trembling, swaying and colliding. Her chest kept rising and falling, like the rough sea. If it weren't for wearing a piece of extremely high-quality underwear, I'm afraid the bra straps would have been unable to withstand such a degree of contraction and were stretched hard.

break.

Zhang Wanhe was extremely surprised: "Xiaohu, how do you know she has read the diary?"

Hu Pingtao leaned back on the chair, changed to a more comfortable sitting position, and said lightly: "Ms. Chen, my client, she asked me to help her find out why Yao Xinqiu had convulsions in the middle of the night. Brother Zhang and I, you are so

I have been busy for many days, looking for clues everywhere, and finally found out that Yao Xinqiu has the habit of writing a diary, so Brother Zhang, please ask Ms. Chen for help to find the diary to facilitate our subsequent work."

As he said that, Hu Pingtao turned sideways and pointed at Chen Miaoyun, who was sitting opposite: "You are a native of Hong Kong. You have always believed in Western education. You think it is necessary to leave enough private space for your children, so you rarely

Interfering in your daughter’s personal issues, and never reading her diary...am I right?"

Without waiting for Chen Miaoyun to answer, Hu Pingtao continued: "Just before this morning, you were still thinking about how to find out your daughter's problem. But because of the fixed thinking that has been formed for a long time, you never thought of taking the initiative to look through it.

The diary written by your daughter. But after Brother Zhang found you..."

At this point, Hu Pingtao turned around and asked Zhang Wanhe: "Brother Zhang, let me ask you a few details - when you asked Ms. Chen for a diary, did you call her first to explain the request, or did you just go ahead without calling her?

Find her?"

"I made a call first." Zhang Wanhe said honestly: "This kind of thing must be prepared in advance."

Hu Pingtao asked again: "How long did it take from the time you called to the time you came to pick up the diary?"

"More than an hour, no more than an hour and a half at the latest." Zhang Wanhe said: "There are a lot of things to do when I get up in the morning. I had breakfast and was busy with other things, and then I went to find Ms. Chen to get the diary."

Hu Pingtao smiled lightly: "Brother Zhang, you said before that Ms. Chen and you went outside to find a place to copy this diary?"

"Yes." Zhang Wanhe nodded: "She printed it in front of me."

Hu Pingtao nodded slightly: "I can understand this. People who run copy shops usually don't read the information carefully. Since it is printed along the page, and Ms. Chen is right next to it, of course it is the part she designated to copy.

"

With that said, he turned to Chen Miaoyun who said nothing: "If I guess correctly, Ms. Chen, you should be very familiar with machinery such as printers. You know how to operate that kind of machine. So, you and Brother Zhang walked into the copy

Store, you should be familiar with that place. You said hello to the manager, took the diary, turned the pages and copied it yourself, and then handed the document to Brother Zhang, is that right?"

Chen Miaoyun still didn't speak. But her eyes looked at Hu Pingtao with obvious fear, releasing a cold and cold light.

Zhang Wanhe also raised his hand and patted his forehead gently: "Xiaohu, after you said that, I also remembered it. It is indeed the case. Ms. Chen did copy the diary herself before giving it to me. From beginning to end, she copied it.

The owner of the store never had anything to do with it."

Hu Pingtao picked up the slightly cold coffee and took a long sip. The taste of sugar and milk filled his mouth. The caffeine stimulated the brain, producing an increasingly exciting effect.

"So, when this diary was copied and handed over to you, Brother Zhang, it was already incomplete, with several pages missing." He reached for the copy of the diary placed in front of Zhang Wanhe, raised his head, and said

Looking at Chen Miaoyun: "If Brother Zhang hadn't called you in advance, you wouldn't have

You will want to peek at your daughter's diary... Maybe when you found this diary from your daughter's room, you still had an instinctive resistance to "peeping". But your curiosity and inquiring mind are still there

Overwhelmed the fixed thinking. So before Brother Zhang arrived, you had already read the diary.

Chen Miaojun turned her head towards the window and said in a cold voice: "I don't understand what you are talking about."

Hu Pingtao didn't care about this: "You didn't tear up the missing pages in Yao Xinqiu's diary. You couldn't do this because your daughter would find out and you wouldn't be able to explain."

"According to normal logic, we just borrowed the diary and could return it within the agreed time. But you chose to make copies... The reason is very simple, because you have read the content and know that some parts cannot be seen. At that time, you regretted agreeing to Brother Zhang

The request was made, but it was already too late. The only relief, or rather remedy, was to conceal the most important contents of the diary."

"So you took Brother Zhang to the copy shop."

Hu Pingtao did not need to seek confirmation from Chen Miaoyun for the time being. He turned to Zhang Wanhe and asked: "Brother Zhang, please recall carefully. There are two questions: First, when copying the diary, was Ms. Chen's location very close to the machine?

And it happens to be at an angle blocked by the machine, so that Brother Zhang, you can’t see her movements?”

Zhang Wanhe thought for a moment and nodded: "Yes."

A smile appeared on Hu Pingtao's face: "Second question: Is she copying the diary fast or slow? Is there any obvious lag in the process?"

Zhang Wanhe remembers this very clearly: "It was very smooth at the beginning. After printing about 20 or 30 pages, the speed became slower."

Hu Pingtao turned to Chen Miaoyun and asked in a mocking tone: "Ms. Chen, you are very healthy, and I can't see that you have any kind of disability. The moment the copying speed slowed down obviously, I think you must have regretted it."

Chen Miaoyun asked reflexively: "What do you regret?"
