Liang Xi said: "You can't talk nonsense in private, what if you sell me if you change hands. I'll make a phone call first."

Liang Xi called Fiona, and Fiona said, "Hi."

Liang Xi: "I have something to do with you privately."

Fiona: "Go ahead."

Liang Xi likes Fiona's emotional character, she helps you only because she is willing to help you, and there are no other factors.

3 Chapter Fifty

Liang Xi used himself as an example and asked Fiona: "I opened a company in South Africa last month and opened a company account. Yesterday I held Bobby hostage and asked him to give me [-] million, otherwise I will tell the media : Bobby is a woman. Bobby gave in and gave me [-] million, but I knew he would call the police, so I wanted to get rid of the money before he called the police. This way even if I go to jail, my Karin can still enjoy me Give her the [-] million earned. Can it be operated theoretically?"

Fiona: "Your example sucks, but you're asking the right person. When I was studying computing, I encountered this topic: Can criminals make a comprehensive transfer of a large sum of money through global banks, and transfer it to the end completely? Can't find it."

Liang Xi said, "The answer is?"

Fiona asked back, "Why should I tell you?"

Liang Xi said: "I heard that you secretly resumed your skateboarding career. It just so happens that I know your father's phone number."

Fiona was shocked: "Are you following me?"

Track shit, think about it with your hips and you'll never give up skateboarding.In the absence of hearing that you were injured and hospitalized while playing skateboarding, it means that you have not been injured while playing skateboarding.You're bound to let your guard down and go from normal skating to freestyle skating because you didn't get hurt.Humans have a fluke mentality.Fiona's skateboarding is very good because of the enthusiasm, time and energy invested, how could she give up so easily?unless seriously injured.

Liang Xi: "Maybe. Do you have an answer now?"

That is Liang Xi, someone else Fiona has smashed the phone.Fiona didn't know why she wasn't angry with Liang Xi.

Fiona told Liang Xi from a professional point of view: It is almost impossible.This method of laundering money can be roughly divided into two categories. One is virtual company performance. For example, I place an order with a company in country A, and I pay the company in country B. Yes, but both countries have to collect taxes.If you travel to a few more countries, you will not have much money left after [-] million yuan is withdrawn.One is a personal account. Once such a large amount of money enters the account, the alarm will be sounded immediately.That's right, it is an alarm, and the information will be fed back to the specialized department as soon as possible.

How scary is big data?Popular science is said to be a way for the British police to catch professional women.Women who regularly earn a fixed amount of money during the evening, late night and early morning hours are marked.The account operation is also similar. If the amount exceeds a certain amount, it will be marked. An account that has entered and withdrawn funds multiple times will also be marked, and it is likely to be frozen for no reason. Sometimes the bank does not know why the private account is frozen.You said that you are in business and often have capital exchanges, so what kind of business do you do?Do you have a company?Why not take the public account?Can you answer: I have many relatives and money, so just give me tens of thousands of dollars if I have nothing to do.

They are blind to laundering money in tax havens, but they are not willing to take less of the tax they should pay.So either pay taxes or get stuck with you.You have to pay taxes when you use the public account, and if you travel to a few more countries, you will not have much money left.The smuggled accounts sounded the alarm, the light ones were frozen, and the serious ones were investigated.Therefore, in theory, it is impossible to transfer illegal funds through banks in more than a dozen countries or even dozens of countries.

Liang Xi heard the key words: "It doesn't work in theory, but what about practical operation?"

Fiona said: "Shitecoin, many countries have recognized the status of Shritecoin. It is difficult to find funds as long as 1 million is converted into Shritecoin of the same value. You can virtualize 1 accounts and convert Shritecoin Transfer to [-] accounts, and turn it into cash through the secondary market in some countries. If you don’t want to have future troubles, then pay the tax once, and the tax declaration is the personal income tax for investing in Shrimp Bitcoin.”

Liang Xi asked, "Can you catch it?"

Fiona replied, "Almost impossible."

Isa's voice came: "Fiona, come here."

Fiona whispered: "Hang up first." Her attitude has already shown that she will not tell others about Liang Xi calling her.Emotional people can forget without thinking about it.A rational person must restrain himself from forgetting about it, or tell himself not to mention it to anyone.

Is it meaningful for Liang Xi to ask Fiona these questions?There must be, but as long as Fiona doesn't consider the purpose of Liang Xi's question, she won't think about it or say it.If it was Karin, Karin knew it was meaningful, and at the same time knew that she shouldn't ask, and she would keep this matter to herself with an attitude of trusting Liang Xi.

Liang Xi knew it well, hung up the phone, and said to Bobby: "The choice is up to you."

Bobby said: "Don't mess with me, now you are Jeff, and your child has been kidnapped." Liang Xi was looking for a ransom, indicating that he had given up his research on the inner ghost.Bobby knew that Liang Xi was not sure, so he didn't want to give any advice.At the same time, it shows that Liang Xi has a point of view.

Liang Xisi thought about it and said, "You guys should decide for yourself."

Bobby stretched out his hand, and the head of the bodyguard stepped forward and took out a stack of banknotes from his pocket to Bobby. Favors don't matter."

Liang Xi played with the banknotes for a while, then put the money in his pocket: "The ghost in this kidnapping case is not the core issue. There is a ghost in this case, but judging from the current situation, it is difficult to determine the identity of the ghost, because the kidnapping gang is very professional. , will teach the inner ghost what to do. From this the core question arises, how did the inner ghost contact the kidnapping gang?"

Bobby asked: "Is it possible that the kidnapping gang contacted the ghost?"

"It's possible. There are many possibilities for this kidnapping case. If we only consider the high probability, it should be that the ghost contacted the kidnapping gang. Why?" Liang Xi asked himself and answered, "Because the South African company that received the ransom was registered 25 days ago. Let's assume that this is a group of professional kidnappers running around in Europe, so why did they register the company 25 days ago? Why didn't they register many companies in advance? The singleness and recent characteristics give the police a certain basis for investigation after the event. Secondly, the kidnappers are Focus on the target, step on the spot to investigate, and then open the company after buying the ghost? If so, it means that the ghost has been lurking for a long time. Can the ghost withstand the mental pressure? If not, start the company first, and then find the target The kidnapper opened the company 25 days ago, targeted Jack 20 days ago, and then went to find the ghost. How to find it? The ghosts in the manor around Jack are all employees who have worked in the manor for many years. It is impossible for new employees to approach Jack. Jack The quasi-inner ghosts of the company around me are sub-high-level staff and executives, can the kidnappers contact them within 20 days and persuade one of them to become an inner ghost?"

Liang Xi said: "It's possible, but it's still the same sentence. The probability is very low and the risk is very high. Because the quasi-inner ghosts are people who have no worries about food and clothing, and they have no criminal record. I can imagine that they have paid for tens of millions And being an insider, but I can't imagine that they can maintain their status as insiders for so many days without being nervous. I don't know about the manor, but there is no such person in the company." This is what Liang Xi asked Mike to investigate and understand during his lunch break reason.

Liang Xi said: "So...fucking, give me another one, I feel bad for talking too much."

Bobby wanted to cry, but who is this? He gave Liang Xi a £20 card. Liang Xi took it and said, "So the core question is, how does the insider contact the kidnapper? As we said just now, there are no quasi-insiders." If they can get in touch with professional kidnappers, if they can get in touch with professional kidnappers, then the police would have already found professional kidnappers.”

Liang Xi asked Poppy: "Do you have an answer? Do you have any? Any ideas?"

Bobby was angry: "I gave you money, don't go around in circles."

Seeing that Bobby was angry, Liang Xi was happy instead, and said, "I've thought about this question for a long time. Is it a coincidence? Is it a coincidence? Or is it because of other reasons that I ran into a kidnapper by chance? Come on. Answer the call!"

Poppy asked, "So what did you end up thinking?"

Liang Xi replied: "Sun, Moon and Star. In the case of Sun, Moon and Star, there was a 17-year-old deceased who was about to inherit the inheritance, but died in the kidnapping case. You have to investigate one thing clearly. The family members of the deceased are also the beneficiaries. , Who does he know from the Mercury Group, and who may have a relationship with. This is the only hope in the Jack kidnapping case, the only hope for a peaceful solution to the kidnapping case. If you can’t find this relationship, it means my speculation is wrong, Jack and Jesse Ka will die alone."

The beneficiary of the Sun, Moon and Star case was not an active beneficiary. He did not kill anyone. He loved his nephew. He was forced to inherit the inheritance and insurance money after his nephew was killed.At least on the surface.His business partners don't care about his story. He is guilty, the law will judge him, and the law does not judge him, which means he is innocent.So beneficiaries can go about their lives as usual.Given that the beneficiary and the insider may belong to the same class, they may have overlapping relationships.

This is currently Liang Xi's only link that can connect the inner ghost with the professional kidnapper after excluding accidental factors.

But Bobby was still not satisfied, and pulled out another banknote: "Master, I have no responsibility to guess the true nature of the case."

Liang Xiwei said, "It's hard to help you with this little money."

Poppy gave another one.

Collect money to do things and talk about ideas, without the pressure of responsibility.Liang Xi said: "I have three conjectures. The first conjecture: Jamie and Jessica teamed up. The reason is that the relationship between the two of them is very good. Jack only has a good relationship with his relatives, with his brothers and sisters, and even his father. I don’t really like him very much. Jessica carried a locator, went to a special school with Jack, and was kidnapped together. After 24 hours, the kidnappers released Jessica and held Jack as a hostage for 72 hours. Between 24 hours and 72 hours , someone called the police, or intentionally angered the kidnapper, and the kidnapper tore up the ticket and left. Be shameless, after releasing Jessica, the kidnapper directly killed Jack and left. This is based on Fiona’s explanation. "

Bobby also listened to the phone call between Liang Xi and Fiona, and asked, "I didn't hear this information on the phone call between you and Fiona."

"This is the gap." Liang Xi wanted to laugh at Bobby, but the head of the bodyguard was also puzzled, and said to the bodyguard, "Fiona explained that after money enters the deep web and the Bitcoin market, it cannot be pursued, so why did the gangster ask for it?" Why don’t the police call the police for 72 hours? Why do criminals say that they want to launder money through banks in more than a dozen countries? Fiona also said that it is impossible to launder money through simple bank transfers in more than a dozen countries. We must trust professionals Shi."

Liang Xidao: "The second guess is that Jessica kidnapped Jack, the hard-working Jessica, the Jessica loved by Jeff, the Jessica recognized by her relatives, has the status of vice president, but has no real job .She has the same inheritance rights as Jack, but she has been excluded from the inheritance team. This is the motive, which is somewhat similar to the first conjecture. Jessica carried a locator and went out with Jack."

Poppy said, "You always put your best guesses last."

Liang Xi said: "This speculation is a bit of fantasy."

Poppy asked, "Is this speculation that Jeff kidnapped Jack?"

Liang Xi said: "What you said is nonsense."

Poppy: "You doubted Jeff before."

Liang Xi said, "I mean the possibility of Jeff is not ruled out."

Poppy: "Fack."

The chief bodyguard was speechless and started again.Can't you just talk about things?My curiosity has been aroused, and you are actually interested in arguing.Bobby was right, the last inference that Liang Xi mentioned every time was always his most mature and entangled opinion.

If you need someone, you can't hit someone. The head of the bodyguard was speechless and rolled his eyes so that Bobby caught the steps. Bobby asked, "What do you mean?"

Turning to Bobby to look at Liang Xi: "Let's continue."

Liang Xi said: "The third possibility is that Jack contacted the kidnappers."

Bobby couldn't believe it: "Jack knew that Jessica would get in the car together, so he contacted the kidnapper? Killed Jessica, so he became the first heir for granted? But Jessica took the initiative to get in the car, don't you believe in chance? "

Liang Xi said: "It sounds unbelievable, but it is the most logical. I can't find a suspect who installed a locator on Jack. Is Jessica a suspect? Don't forget one detail, Jessica didn't take the coat , which means that Jessica has no plan to go out, and walking with Jack is a temporary idea. Four people entered Jack's office, and after I checked, I ruled out the suspicion of the four people subjectively. If there is a real ghost, it should be in the manor. "

Liang Xi said: "Since I can't find anyone else who might install the locator, logically, I can only suspect the last person, and that is Jack."

Poppy asked, "Why?"

Liang Xi replied, "I don't know."

Bobby still didn't believe it: "Jack kidnapped himself? Extorted 5000 million?"

Liang Xi said: "The above is my opinion. Next, the boss of the detective agency will personally investigate whether there is a direct connection between the Sun Moon Star in Spain and the Mercury Group in London."

Bobby said to the bodyguard: "Keep two people and detain him here before I get any news."

Liang Xi was dissatisfied: "Hey, what do you mean?"

Bobby said: "Don't look for you, you and your girlfriend are bored and have no time to talk to me." Once Liang Xi and Karin were together, Liang Xi's desire to work plummeted.

Liang Xi said, "I still want to go to Jamie's company and the scene of the crime."

Bobby looked at the head of the bodyguard: "Get someone to go with him, just don't let him meet Karin. Just beat him up, or drag him back after being knocked out. We have a lawyer." Say it and leave.Because they are familiar, they can bully you. This is a typical killing of familiarity.But Bobby can't be blamed, Liang Xi has a general attitude towards this matter, and Bobby is nervous.Not only because Jessica has a personal relationship with him, but also because the Mercury Group has a far-reaching strategic cooperation with the Clement Group.

Liang Xi immediately breathed out the fragrance.

The head of the bodyguard apologized to Liang Xi: "I'm sorry." In fact, the head of the bodyguard felt that Bobby did the right thing this time.This case was not attractive to Liang Xi, Liang Xi gave up having a good day with Karin purely because of Bobby's face.

Chapter 351 Suspected Kidnapping ([-])

Liang Xi first went to Jamie's company to meet Jamie, but was told by Jamie's assistant that Jamie hadn't come back after leaving the company in the morning, so he called and assigned the deputy general manager to be in charge of the company's affairs, saying that he had something important to do in the past two days. If you can't go back to the company, you can call him directly if you have important matters.

So Liang Xi called him: "Jamie? I'm a black ID VIP, and I want to sit in your office."

Jamie's voice was deliberately lowered: "Sorry, our company does not accept group VIPs."

"Are you busy crying in front of Jeff at the manor?" Liang Xi asked.

Jamie suppressed his anger: "I'm staying with my father, and by the way, see if there is anything I can help."

Liang Xi asked: "Who do you want to die? Or all dead?"

Jamie cursed: "..."

Then Liang Xi heard Bo's father's voice, and they communicated for a while, and Bo's father answered the phone: "Liang Xi, go wherever you want."

"Thank you, Uncle." Liang Xi gave the phone to Assistant Jamie.

After Jamie's assistant answered the phone, he opened Jamie's office with his fingerprints.This made Liang Xi a little curious: "It's rare to see fingerprint locks used in offices."

Assistant Jamie replied: "I changed it after I lost it, and specially installed monitoring equipment."

Liang Xi looked up and saw the surveillance camera overhead. When he entered the office, there were actually two surveillance cameras in the office.Liang Xi asked, "What did you lose?"

Assistant Jamie replied: "I don't know, the boss doesn't want to say."

Liang Xi asked, "Is the boss nervous, or angry?"

"..."

Liang Xi explained: "I just teased your boss. Even though your boss is very angry, he still has to let me in."

Assistant Jamie replied helplessly: "Silence, without saying a word, instruct me to install the monitor on the same day, replace the door lock, and return a financial person to the group's personnel department."

Liang Xi looked at the books on the shelf on the left, which seemed to be in the same area as the books on the shelf in Jessica's office.Liang Xi asked, "Does Jessica come to the company often?"

"Ok?"

Liang Xi said: "Others don't know her name is Jessica, you should know."

The assistant replied helplessly again: "Yes, I come here often."

Why do you come here so often?Your frequent visits will complicate personnel relations, and I cannot deduce your position from basic human nature.Liang Xi said: "Okay, thank you." After finishing speaking, he walked out of the office and said to Shuangpi who was waiting at the door: "Let's go."

Shuangpi is the bodyguard sent by Bobby to Liang Xi, one is to protect, and the other is to monitor.Shuangpi's real names are Pete and Pique. After the chief bodyguard took office as the chief bodyguard, he dismissed many bodyguards and selected two additional bodyguards.They have been working at Bobby's house for eight years, and they are experienced and focused.The disadvantage is that you don't like to talk, and your face is expressionless.It's hard to figure out what they're thinking just by looking at them and talking to them.

……

When going to the scene of the traffic accident, Liang Xi received a call from Bobby.Bobby said it was a bit troublesome, and Bo's father didn't want him to get too involved.Father Bo's concerns were the same as Liang Xi's. If Bobby intervened too deeply, if he influenced Jeff's decision-making, he might be angered.Bobby told Bo's father that he had to figure out the relationship between the beneficiaries of the Sun Yuexing kidnapping case and Jie's family.Father Bo let Bobby play while he would tell Bobby the answer.

Father Bo has a city mansion and is very sophisticated. He knew that Bobby would directly ask Jeff: Do you know the beneficiaries of Sun Moon Star?Bobby really wanted to figure out this question. He couldn't ask the Jie family who had a stake in him. He should learn about the relationship between the beneficiary and the Jie family.

The beneficiary was named Andres, a well-known Spanish banker.There is no business relationship between the Clement Group and Andres.Father Bo knew that the Mercury Group had business in Spain, so he might have contact with Renshi in the banking industry.

Bobby told Liang Xi that it was the first time he discovered that Bo's father had human feelings for others besides his family.Father Bo is really trying to help Jeff, not coping and going through the motions.

Liang Xi told Bobby that this is called investment, and a friend in need is a friend in need.After all, no matter who dies, Jeff will still be the boss of the Mercury Group.Bobby cursed angrily, and the two talked louder than each other on the phone.After the mutual confrontation, Liang Xi felt much less stressed. It seems that cursing people can indeed effectively relieve stress.

The van and car have left the scene and debris from the collision has been cleaned up as if nothing had happened.Liang Xi asked Peake and Pete to light a cigarette after getting out of the car. Shuangpi did not smoke. As a bodyguard, he sometimes had to deal with some smokers, and they both carried cigarettes and lighters.

The three of them smoked while riding their bicycles as if they stopped temporarily to take a rest.The reason for being so cautious was that Liang Xi did not rule out the possibility of being monitored nearby.If police detectives are involved in a kidnapping case, they will definitely go to the scene to investigate and understand the specific situation.

Shuangpi and Liang Xi were very rude, they drank a cigarette and found a place to pee.Even though there were basically no vehicles on this road, they walked to a relatively secluded place. After confirming that there were no monitoring personnel and monitoring equipment, Liang Xi walked to the location where the truck might be staying.Patience is a virtue because waiting is suffering.How long has the van been here?Did the occupants get out of the car?How do they solve the pee problem?In addition to the truck, there is also a small car for transporting hostages. There are at least two culprits. Can you find some clues?

Pete greeted: "Here."

Liang Xi left the road and walked among the weeds on the side of the road. He saw a shrub branch that was broken but not fallen. Pete explained: "It was broken this morning."

Wow!Bobby's bodyguard team has everything.According to this clue, the ground that has been trampled many times was found, and someone stayed here.A road can be seen from this position.It is the only way for Jack to return to London from the special school.

While the kidnappers are waiting, one kidnapper may be bored or for other reasons, and here he looks at the place Jack must pass.

Liang Xi said: "Gambling time, looking for hair, cigarette butts, feces, paper scraps, boogers, you can do anything."

Shuangpi started working without saying a word. The three of them searched the area in a radius of five meters, but found nothing useful except for a few footprints.This land is not a mud pit, and the footprints are left by the dust on the ground, which hardly helps solve the case.Almost, because there is at least some information left in the footprints: size 43 shoes.

……

Peak, who was in charge of security, stood by the car, with his right hand slanted on his abdomen, and his fingertips were only a few centimeters away from the pistol.

It has been 10 minutes since arriving at the scene, and nothing suspicious has been found, but Pique is still on alert.Liang Xi looked at it and sighed in his heart. This kind of habit is definitely not something that a bodyguard company can train, and no bodyguard company will make such a request for a bodyguard.Pique's taciturnity is different from Pete's taciturnity. Pete is not talkative, and Pique is traumatized.

Pete stood on the side, and they had carried out Liang Xi's order to search the area.As bodyguards, they will not take the initiative to do things that have nothing to do with security unless requested by their employer or temporary employer.

Liang Xi slowly moved around the shoe prints, looking up at the clearly visible road in the distance, and looking down at the weeds, leaves and bushes, hoping to find a cigarette butt and other items with DNA.
