The monk of the way of beauty

Chapter 238 Rejection

"Please sit down, both of you!" Ling Xiao took Melinda and Hill up to the third floor. Since Ling Xiao moved the practice quiet room to the cliff villa, the third floor of the pharmacy was vacant, so he moved this side new remodel.

The three-story quiet room, which was originally extremely large, was transformed and divided into three rooms, a bedroom, a living room and a studio.

Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Ling Xiao made a pot of tea for the two of them himself, watched the two of them take a sip, and then asked, "I don't know what the two of you are doing this time?"

Melinda and Hill looked at each other, and then said directly: "Ling, we heard that your villa was stolen. I wonder if your Heavenly Armor is still in your hands?"

Melinda went straight to the point and stated the purpose of coming today in one sentence.In fact, S.H.I.E.L.D. knew about the theft of Ling Xiao's villa a few days ago, but they didn't associate it with the Celestial Armor. After all, Ling Xiao's strength is not weak, so why would they want to steal things from him? It's that easy.

However, the development of things afterwards made them a little worried, especially when Qin Ming, who had a close relationship with Ling Xiao, started to move, SHIELD began to be a little restless, and with some other things, this is what happened. This visit from Hill and Melinda.

"Heavenly Armor." Ling Xiao couldn't help but shook his head with a smile. SHIELD's response was really too slow. Hydra had been moving under their noses for so long, and they didn't even notice it at all. One can imagine how severely the entire Los Angeles branch has been eroded.

"Then do you think the Celestial Armor is still in my hands?" Ling Xiao raised his head and looked at the two people with a half-smile, without any panic on his face, which made Melinda and Hill suspicious the previous judgment.

Taking a deep breath, Hill spoke for the first time: "Ling, I hope you can understand that once the Heavenly Armor is stolen, the consequences will be very serious, so please tell us the truth so that we can proceed to the next step. deal with."

"Serious." Ling Xiao shook his head slightly, and said indifferently: "I don't think there is anything serious about it. No one can use the Heavenly Armor except me. Even if it is really lost, it will not Cause any harm, let alone it is still in my hands."

"Then can we see the Heavenly Armor?" Hill asked further.

"No." Ling Xiao refused very decisively, and said: "I hid the Heavenly Armor in a very secret place, and there are too many people staring at it now. I don't want to be followed by others to find the storage of the Heavenly Armor. Then take things away."

"Mr. Ling, from your point of view, it seems that you don't trust us very much?" Hill frowned tightly, and Ling Xiao's words made her think about it.

"It's not that I don't trust you, it's that I don't trust all law enforcement officers." Ling Xiao sat there, took a sip from his teacup, and then said to the two of them: "You two, let me show you Come on, after reading it, you will understand why I think so?"

Hill and Melinda glanced at each other, a hint of surprise flashed in their eyes. They didn't know what Ling Xiao would show up to make him suspicious of all law enforcement officers, and the expressions of the two couldn't help but become serious.

When Ling Xiao came out of the bedroom, he was holding a USB flash drive in his hand. He plugged the USB flash drive into the TV, took out the remote control and pressed it a few times, and the living room scene of Ling Xiao Villa appeared on the TV screen.

On the screen, Ling Xiao's living room is very tidy and clean, and the villa is very quiet, but when Ling Xiao fast-forwarded and stopped, the two suddenly found a few figures flickering at the edge of the screen.

"This is the surveillance video of the living room when the villa was stolen that day. Normally, the monitor in the living room is not turned on. It will only be turned on when Gan Jing and I are not in the villa."

Ling Xiao turned around, looked at Melinda and Hill, and said in a deep voice: "We have a set of monitoring equipment at the front and back of the villa. Only Gan Jing and I know about the monitoring equipment in the living room, and the other two sets of monitoring equipment It is easy to be discovered, and it is impossible to hide it from professionals."

After a short pause, Ling Xiao said with a half-smile: "Do you know that on the day of the theft, the monitoring equipment in the backyard was cut off by someone, and the method was quite professional, even though they didn't know that there was a set of monitoring equipment in the living room. equipment, but still carefully avoiding surveillance cameras, and the real fun is behind."

Ling Xiao picked up the remote control and fast-forwarded for a while. Two patrolmen appeared on the surveillance video in the front yard. The two had serious faces and very regular movements, but both Melinda and Hill knew that they were both policemen. There is a problem, otherwise Ling Xiao would not have said what he just said.

Both of them were experienced agents, so they were skeptical. They soon noticed the same thing as the two patrolmen. During the whole process of entering the villa, the two of them glanced at the monitor except at the very beginning. After that, He never raised his head again.

Of course, there is nothing wrong with this, but Melinda and Hill know that this is extremely abnormal. As a patrolman, when dispatching the police, especially when receiving a report, you must keep your eyes and ears open, otherwise, Anyone who doesn't pay attention will be hit by a cold gun from nowhere.

The actions of the two seem to be okay, but in fact they are deliberately avoiding the monitoring above, and veterans can see the problem.

Immediately after the screen turned, it turned back to the living room. At this time, the two patrolmen who entered the villa were obviously relieved. After the two had a few conversations, they began to turn around in the villa. The vases and bookshelves were even more He was knocked over a lot, and he looked like a mess.

At this time, even the most stupid people knew that there was something wrong with these two patrolmen, maybe they were with the previous wave of people.

Seeing Ling Xiao turn off the TV, Melinda couldn't help but said, "Ling, why didn't you hand over this video to the detective in charge of this case?"

"I intend to give it." Ling Xiao sneered, and said: "But when I went to see that police detective a few days ago, his attitude was very problematic. I don't know whether he didn't like me or said What's going on, the words you asked me were very wrong, so I didn't take out this thing."

"Do you suspect that there is something wrong with that detective too?" Melinda asked, frowning. To be honest, she didn't quite believe it. From the thief who stole, to the policeman who received the police, and then to the police detective who was in charge of investigating the case, didn't they? It is too bizarre to say that the whole incident was controlled by someone.

Compared to Melinda, Hill believes that this kind of thing is quite normal for a mature organization.Compared with Melinda, who is often on the front line, Hill, who often leads the overall situation, is very familiar with this method, because she often does it herself.

"I don't know if there is a problem, anyway, I just can't trust them." Ling Xiao pulled the USB drive from the TV, pushed it to Melinda and Hill, and said with a chuckle: "Okay, this thing I will leave it to the two of you to investigate, and if you can find anything, remember to let me know."

Melinda raised her head and glanced at Hill, and seeing Hill nodded slightly, she picked up the USB flash drive and said, "Okay, Ling, I will investigate this matter and find out."

"Of course that's the best." Ling Xiao laughed, and now there will be a good show. SHIELD is facing Hydra, and I don't know if Melinda can dig out the secret of Hydra, but , to be honest, Ling Xiao doesn't like her very much.

"By the way, Ling, there is another thing." Hill sat up straight and looked at Ling Xiao, and said in a deep voice, "We hope you can join S.H.I.E.L.D.?"

"S.H.I.E.L.D., no, no, no, I'm not interested in that." Just kidding, it would be weird if he entered S.H.I.E.L.D. if he didn't get eaten up, all the value on him would be squeezed out, and S.H.I.E.L.D. The other half is controlled by Hydra, and he won't even know how he died at that time, so it's strange that he is willing to join S.H.I.E.L.D.
