fog city detective

Liang Xi said: "Bobby, let me give you an example. I visited you unexpectedly this morning. Relying on my friendship with you, I broke into your bedroom directly. I found Pete sleeping on the same bed with you, shirtless, and the room was full of Empty wine bottles and the smell of alcohol in the room. I judged logically: you slept last night. However, some objective possibilities cannot be ruled out, such as you drank too much last night, took off your shirt and continued to drink, and then fell drunk on the bed. "

"Beforehand, I really hate that you use me as an example. It's never a good thing." Bobby said: "I understand what you mean, you can't be sure about me and... bah, you can't be sure about Young Master Lin..."

"Who is Young Master Lin?" Liang Xi was puzzled.

"A classmate who bullied me in elementary school." Poppy added: "It's miserable now."

"Okay." Helpless.

Bobby said: "You suspect that Young Master Lin slept with Miha...Miha is a dog that bit me. But it is also possible that Young Master Lin didn't sleep with Miha. You can't express your doubts, because once you do, you will , everyone will think that Young Master Lin slept with Miha. In this way, you think you are sorry for Young Master Lin, although Young Master Lin has bullied you, but he is already miserable."

Liang Xi said, "Probably that's what it means."

Bobby asked: "You can eat, drink and have fun, but you can't talk about business?"

"Ah."

……

Liang Xi never expected that this incident would turn into a life-and-death spy.Although Liang Xi embarked on the oily road, he couldn't beat House.When two disguised bodyguards showed up near the Sailor's Bar, they were targeted by House's men.But House's people underestimated the quality of the bodyguards.Bodyguards are not swords and butterflies, but they have the quality of bodyguards so that they are very careful in doing things.Especially Uncle Liang's affairs were all a large-scale fight, so he soon found out that he was being followed.

The chief bodyguard issued an order: beat them up.Command Theory: One for one.Command logic: We have many people, they are afraid of exposure.

So two bodyguards stopped the stalker in the street, and the other party was very arrogant and said that the road was facing the sky, and then they were beaten up.After the beating, the bodyguard asked to call the police, but the person who was beaten refused to call the police. In the end, the person who was beaten gave the bodyguard [-] pounds as compensation.During their trouble, the other four bodyguards had already started their work.House suffered from the fact that he had too few people, so he didn't dare to blatantly play a war of attrition with the opponent, and he didn't want to publicly violate professional ethics, so he finally gave up continuing to follow up.

In House's view, Liang Xi just didn't bet all his money on him, and his behavior was still an investigation of the Sailor's Bar.

When you find the right person and ask the right question, the information will pop up immediately.The hotel owner still remembers this matter, the first reason is the Bridge of Madison County.This famous movie depicts the beauty of married women falling in love. The heroine of Madison Bridge is named Francesca, and the person Liang Xi is looking for happens to be also named Francesca, Sis for short.

This incident dates back to 96, when the hotel owner saw Sith enter the hotel for the first time.It was early in the morning, and she wrapped her face in a scarf, looking hurried.The hotel owner just slept on the reception chair.Sith took a serious look at the boss for a while, making sure he was asleep before quickly going upstairs.The boss is just pretending to be stupid, but the boss doesn't know who this woman is.

After about ten days, the Pluto Company, a railway transportation company, booked some of the hotel rooms and rented the public open space of the hotel.The purpose is to celebrate the company's anniversary with a beer barbecue and bonfire.It was the first time for the boss to meet Sith head-on. She was a very beautiful and young Sith. She was the daughter-in-law of the president of Pluto. It was said that they had been married for less than half a year.The husband and wife settled near the distribution center, and her husband founded the Pluto subsidiary.

Afterwards, at intervals of half a year or several months, Sith would enter the hotel in the early hours of the morning with his face covered every day, and usually leave before six o'clock in the morning.The boss didn't dare to say, and he didn't dare to ask, he didn't know which room Sith went to or who to see.At the same time, the boss recognized Colonel Marr, who had lived in the hotel for several days or even ten days many times.The boss said that Mal was a soldier, and his purpose of coming to the distribution center was to get together with his comrades. Many comrades went to the distribution center to work after retiring.

Why can the boss remember Mal?Because the boss is a soldier who has just been retired for less than three years. After bumping into obstacles in finding a job, he had no choice but to take over the family business - the hotel.Another important reason is that the bodyguard is rich. Driven by the money, the boss called his wife to ask about it. His wife worked part-time as a hotel waiter. The wife didn't know Sith, but she remembered Mal.

……

If you don't check, you don't know. If you check, you will be shocked. Sith is no longer an ordinary person, but a person with an ID card.His husband is the owner of Neptune Corporation, a subsidiary of Pluto.Years later, with the help of Pluto's boss, his own father, Neptune annexed Pluto.Today, Neptune is already a well-known transportation company in southern England. Its business is not limited to railway transportation, and its tentacles have extended to air transportation, sea transportation, land transportation and other fields.A few years ago, we cooperated with two transportation companies in Spain and Germany, and our business has expanded to the world.

But it wasn't all the fault of Sith's husband, who died a decade ago.After the death of her husband, Sith became the heir of Neptune Company and began to develop to Europe and even the world.Sith was her husband's surname, and a year after her husband's death, Sith changed it back to Brown.Sith's full name is Helena Brown.

Even Liang Xi knows this name, so I can't say how awesome she is, after all, my friend Bobby's Clement is really awesome.But Helena must be a senior businessman, a businessman with a net worth of several billion.

Bobby said: "If Clement has a score of 99, Helena's Neptune should have a score of 65 or 70. She and her company have no ability to affect the economy, but it does not prevent her from becoming a successful businessman. a successful entrepreneur."

Liang Xi asked, "Why 99 points?"

People's thinking is different. Originally, Helena was discussed, but Liang Xi's focus was on the 99 points.As a detective, Liang Xi felt that Bobby was either arrogant and bragging, or seeking truth from facts. How could there be a score of 99?

Bobby said: "Humility is a virtue."

It was already the second day after getting these materials, and they had breakfast at Bobby's mansion.There are only three hours before House's 24 hours, and there has been no news from House so far.Tim, as a hacker, is sorting out Helena's assets, real estate, and most importantly, London.Helena was widowed ten years ago and has not remarried so far. Maybe there really is a transcendent love with Marr.

The two discussed the topic of love. Bobby was crushed by Liang Xi and rubbed on the ground.Bobby wanted to refute but felt powerless. He found that his love field was blank.The first love is seduced by Jessica, there is no love, it is purely the inner sprout of teenagers.After Jessica opened a door for Bobby, Bobby sank into sleep, and he never thought of developing any love.Because he doesn't need to talk about love to sleep with a woman.

Chapter 534

Liang Xi also paid the price for his impulsiveness. After Bobby was ridiculed, he made up his mind to find out about love, and that was Sera.The bluffing Liang Xi coaxed him to no avail.But I really want to chase my girl Bobby but I don't know how to get it, invite me to dinner?Already had a lot of meals.Confession?People believe in themselves.The notoriety is known to the world, and a glass of red wine is directly poured over.

The bodyguards worked overtime and did their dirty work. While waiting for the two bosses to evaluate, House called and sent Liang Xi a large attachment by email.House said that the time was too tight and some parts were not perfect, so he only accepted Leung Chi [-].The implication is that this single loss is big.Fortunately, CA is not the Shadow Detective Agency, and it is the Shadow Detective Agency that collects money, not CA.

……

Love is the beautiful irrational thought of the human spirit.Because of its irrationality, it will always be used by some people with bad intentions. One of the reasons why many girls marry the wrong man, and the most important reason is love.Marriage due to love is not much different from gambling. It doesn’t matter if you bet right and win in life, but if you bet wrong, you just need to stop the loss in time.There is also a group of people with bad intentions who are like Liang Xi.They take advantage of the great emotions of human beings to make things happen.

The hacker Tim entered the backend of the service provider, and obtained Helena's recent activity track from the backend data.Even without hacking, there are tons of people who know where you are and even what you say.In the past, Liang Xi didn't believe it. Some college classmates used four-star mobile phones. Liang Xi introduced him to the delicious mapo tofu, and the two talked for about 3 minutes.In the afternoon, the classmate took the mobile phone to find Liang Xi, and told Liang Xi something super miraculous. His video software sent him, an Italian, several videos related to mapo tofu.As a result, Liang Xi immediately changed to Anping mobile phone, at least the Anping service provider would review all apps.

"As the president of a company that focuses on international trade, I only went to France for two days in a month and a half." Liang Xi looked at the road map.She has no children, but has a few dogs, and her daily leisure is to take the dogs for a walk.Helena's home is about seven kilometers away from Bobby's home. It is a detached villa with an area of ​​more than 400 square meters and a construction area of ​​more than [-] square meters. Seven people provide services for this villa.

Liang Xi asked, "Have the staff been to work recently?"

Tim replied: "Yes, go to work normally."

Liang Xi said: "Then the target is unlikely to be in the villa." Given Tim's criminal record, Liang Xi and the others did not mention Colonel Marr's name.

Poppy asked, "Is there a container terminal nearby, any freight companies?"

Tim searched for a while: "The nearest transit station is 45 kilometers away."

Poppy: "How about real estate?"

Tim said: "Neptune has a total of four real estate properties in London, and Helena has a total of three real estate properties in London. There are no locations that meet the requirements." Requirement [-]: There are not many people working and living in daily life.Requirement [-]: There is a certain power consumption.

Bobby asked: "What about movable property? In the narrow sense, movable property." There are many movable properties in the broad sense, and the narrow sense usually refers to valuable means of transportation.

Tim said: "There are two cars under Helena's name, and there are many cars under Neptune's name, but they are not provided for Helena's use. These two cars have no problems from monitoring. One left the community, and the other It’s in the villa. Helena drives a grocery shopping cart worth about 60 pounds. The other one is a [-]-pound Rolls-Royce, which is for business use and has a driver.”

"Where's the yacht?"

"She has no yachts to her name."

Bobby pointed out: "There is no yacht, why did I go to the yacht dock three days ago? I stayed for more than two hours. It is impossible for a businessman like her to go to the yacht and talk business with people. Her age should not be able to participate in yacht parties."

Liang Xi looked at the location, which was a question mark-shaped marina to the west of Kent Park.The pier is an artificial bay that can accommodate eighty small and medium-sized yachts.

From Helena's trajectory, the only suspicious place is here.Bobby looked at Liang Xi: "How is it?"

"It's nice, has good mobility, and can carry systems, hide multiple people. But it's not comfortable to live on a yacht." Yachts are similar to cars in that their electricity comes from the engine.If the yacht is not started, the electricity in the cabin will be consumed less and less.If the engine is kept running at the marina, it will inevitably arouse the suspicion of the security guard.

Tim said: "Kingston University is located 12 nautical miles south of the pier along the Thames River. Neptune has a small and medium-sized vessel maintenance base near Kingston University. It is a 4S shop for small and medium-sized vessels."

Liang Xi said: "Leaving the dock every day, going to the Kingston Maintenance Center, charging on the way, and refueling along the way. But isn't it uncomfortable to hide on the boat? I think the yacht is just his tool. He turned the car into a yacht. Near the yacht dock Do you have a place to live?"

Tim zoomed in on the map to check the area, and said: "To the east is the park, to the west is the Thames River, to the north and south is the road, and the nearest community is fifteen kilometers away."

Liang Xi looked at the map and asked, "From the pier to the other side, where is the nearest pier?"

"Stadium, Rowing Club Inland Dock." This is also an artificial pier, in the shape of an axe, with access from the handle of the axe.The ax is the mooring area.This is a place exclusively for club members to moor boats and club boats.Tim added: "This area is full of sports fields, including archery, track and field, swimming pool, etc. 200 meters north of the pier is a holiday apartment area with nine buildings. 350 meters south is an Olympic Village with a total of The 37 small villas are the residences provided for referees and other staff during the Olympic Games. After the Olympic Games, they will be rented out, starting at half a month, and the average rental rate is about 40%. Seven of them are overseas tourists, and three are local business receptions.

Although there is no evidence, based on Liang Xi's understanding, the Villa in the Olympic Village should be the best hiding place for Colonel Marr.This stadium has a large area and not many daily personnel. After all, the most popular sport in London is football, followed by cricket.With convenient transportation and yacht support, Colonel Marr and the others are extremely mobile.

Liang Xi said: "Check the tenants of the Olympic Village."

Villas No. 03 and No. 04 soon surfaced. They are the villas rented by Helena's Neptune Company's public relations manager in the name of business lease.Presumably, Helena asked the manager to arrange the villa on the grounds of receiving customers, and told them not to disturb them, and she personally received the villa guests.

Is there Colonel Marr in villas 03 and 04?Liang Xi was not sure.This is Liang Xi's unverifiable speculation.If you contact the Office of Counter Terrorism, no matter whether Mal is killed or arrested, it is impossible to confirm from Mal whether Mal is the murderer of John.The thugs that Liang Xi could hire were either Bobby's bodyguard team that would not violate the bottom line of the law, or professionals related to the dark society such as Blood Moon.The only one who can be united with himself is Kunta.Kunta is already in his 50s, no matter how good his skills are, he can't do this job.

Isn't Karin a combat power?No, Karin is Doctor Karin, not MI6 Karin.

……

"A vote?"

On the grass in the backyard of the mansion, Liang Xi was reading the information about the Sailor's Bar sent by House.It is almost certain that CA has checked the Sailor's Bar, but there is no news of Colonel Mal.

"Hey, how about talking to you?" Bobby was very enthusiastic: "Pay money to Thresh to make a plan, and we will vote for him?"

Liang Xi said, "Bobby, this matter has nothing to do with you."

"What's irrelevant?" Bobby said, "Most things have nothing to do with Superman. Superman just likes to meddle in his own business."

Liang Xi said: "I'm looking for Mal for other reasons. It's not convenient for your bodyguards to take action. Maybe it will implicate you in jail. I don't want to inform Liu Zhen and them."

Bobby asked suspiciously, "Then how do you arrest him?"

"I don't know." Liang Xi said, "I'll find a way."

Poppy: "This is your chance. Do you know when the auction will start? Maybe it's already started?"

Liang Xi had a flash of inspiration, perhaps the best opportunity to capture Colonel Marr is when the auction is in progress.In order to ensure the safety of the auction, Colonel Marr must mobilize his men.According to speculation in the Olympic Village villa, there are four to six people around Mar.If you can peel off half of the people, there is still a chance.After all, Kunta could find a few qualified thugs.

The key to catching Mal is to capture him quickly, accurately and ruthlessly, try not to shoot as much as possible, and avoid conflicts with the police.Changing other people and things, Liang Xi is willing to assist the police in eradicating Mal, but this case is special.

For Liang Xi, the only contradiction is why John asked him to dig the holy flag in his will. No matter how Marr sees it, it has little to do with the holy flag.Even if there were, he had some stories with Davis, a patron of the Holy Banner.In theory, Colonel Marr could not be touched from Davis.

Bobby is still very persuasive, even if he is very dissatisfied, it is only superficially dissatisfied, and he enthusiastically discusses a countermeasure.He arranged for people a few kilometers away, and if Liang Xi was trapped, they could rescue and rescue Liang Xi.Liang Xi agreed to express his gratitude, but he didn't tell Bobby that he must stay away from such things.

Not all because of danger, the main reason is that joining in the fun will only cause trouble for professionals.Countless film and television themes are like this. There are always people who are incompetent and love to join in the fun. They don’t listen to dissuasion to go to dangerous places with care, and the result is that their partners are in crisis.

Furthermore, as a back-up, you can call the counter-terrorism office for military support in case of an emergency.This group of people didn't need to say too much, they didn't need to explain too much, they came just after shouting.Counting with fingers, their 48-hour mandatory holiday due to the firefight at the Liufan Hotel will soon expire.He is such a good person, he just came back from vacation and let them go on vacation again, Liu Zhen must be very grateful to himself.

……

"I have someone!" Quinta, who was very upset when he was invited out, was shocked after listening to Liang Xi's explanation. This guy can really dig people out?Kunta said: "From my understanding, the clues are staged, is it reliable?"

Liang Xi explained: "Not necessarily reliable. My idea is not to start with Helena going to the pier to find where Colonel Marr might appear. My idea is that they may meet. First, they have a phone call. The second class is social network contact. The third class is meeting. The most likely to be exposed is the first class behavior. As long as there is the first class behavior, it shows that they are not guarded against the relationship between the two, so the second class and the second class will inevitably appear. Third class situation."

Liang Xi said: "The worst and worst situation is that they don't meet or contact each other. The second to last is to meet in private. I have seen Helena's trajectory, and there are many people everywhere she goes and stays. Places. Restaurants, companies, her own home, etc. Only the pier at Kendall Park is where she can meet people alone."

Liang Xi said: "In the worst case, Marr doesn't contact Helena, there is no way. Therefore, I have to assume the premise that Marr contacted Helena, Helena will definitely help, and it can even be said that Marr doesn't need Helena I also want to help, this is my heart.”

Kunta retorted: "It's also possible that Helena won't help."

Liang Xi asked back: "Have you never loved?"

Kunta looked at Liang Xi's neck, thought about how much effort it would take to break it, and nodded, "No, I'm laughing."

Liang Xi said: "Don't worry about it. The more you lack, the more you want. Helena has no husband, no children, she is not short of money, fame and fortune, and she should not be afraid of death. This speculation is a high probability event. Helena has Neptune The company's small and medium-sized ship maintenance base. It is definitely a good thing for Mal to be able to add a waterway."

Liang Xi continued: "We always think that Mal is an old fox, and that he is omnipotent. But it should be noted that Mal is not from London, and the number of times he comes to London is very limited, and he only comes every six months or so. He knows many people in London. Looking for him, he needs a safe and comfortable area, which means that he can only move around in a certain area. He can’t run around, because the risk of exposure is high, and the location is not familiar. The meeting with Marr at the park pier infers that Marr’s comfort zone is within this range.”

Kunta asked, "How sure?"

"40%."

Kunta asked again: "How sure are Mal the murderer of John?"

"30%."

Kunta gave a thumbs up: "You are not a detective, you are a gambler."

Liang Xi said: "No, I follow the theory that idleness is idleness. The best case for action is to catch Marl, and Marl admits that he killed John under forced confession. The next best situation is that Marl did not kill John, and handed over to him. Giving the police is equivalent to killing London, you might be able to be promoted to the chief executive of MI5. Again, if Marl was not caught and escaped by him, it would at least destroy Marl's plan and catch him Braid. We can continue to use love to lure him into the bait. Worst case, there is no Mal, and Mal has no connection with Helena, so what have we lost?"

Kunta replied: "Except that my brothers and I have worked hard, there is no loss. There is also a worst case, my brothers and I are dead."

Liang Xi said: "This is not the worst. I have arranged for a backup. If you persist until all of you are wiped out, my reinforcements will be able to avenge you."

Kunta patted Liang Xi's shoulder hard, what you said was very reasonable, and I didn't know how to refute it for a while.

Chapter 535 Arrested

Liang Xi added: "The most important thing is patience. We have to wait for the auction, and then do it when there is a transfer of personnel. This will not only minimize the danger, but also the time just after the auction will be when they are most relaxed .”

Kunta said dissatisfied: "Little brat, you can brag about solving the case. Don't give me eye drops, don't teach me how to do things. It's up to me whether it's dangerous or not, and when it's up to me. I understand. Yet?"

Liang Xi said: "Understood. But I have a request, you must notify me before you take action, and I will arrange a follow-up."

Kunta: "Are you sure I can't handle Mal? I'm over 50, and he's over 60."

Liang Xi explained: "I just said in case."

Kunta said impatiently: "There is no chance."

"What if you are bragging? It's fine to die in vain. It's mainly a waste of my clues. Opportunities don't come every day."

Kunta was even more dissatisfied: "Do you have to talk like that? I'm your elder no matter what."

"Please inform me before you act." Liang Xi patiently explained: "There is no police station near the stadium."

"Okay, I got it." Kunta said, "But you can only send people over if I die."

"Yes, elder."

Hearing Liang Xi's tone, Kunta was extremely upset: "Get out of the car, you little brat, and leave the rest to me."

Liang Xi was not in a hurry, and added: "I expect there will be two auction times. One is around 7 o'clock during the rush hour. Not everyone has a yacht. Waterways are Marr's advantageous resource. The second auction time is dawn. The auction location There shouldn’t be, buyers don’t meet each other, they use online platforms or other means to conduct auctions at the same time.”

Kunta said: "Marr is a traditionalist, can he use a telephone booth?"

Telephone booths are part of the British landscape, and even with mobile phones so ubiquitous, they are still common.Liang Xi thought it made sense and nodded.

Kunta: "So don't be so self-righteous, kid, get out of the car."

"Phone booths are just one possibility."

"Get off." Roar!

Liang Xi got out of the car resentfully, how could he still have such a bad temper when he was old?He didn't know that what Kunta was upset about was that he didn't do anything, and Liang Xi did everything.It was Liang Xi who suggested that Marr was suspicious, and Liang Xi found the suspected hiding place of Marr. The more Liang Xi said, the more upset Kunta became.Personal value may be the most important thing for Kunta, who is getting older and older.

Maybe they all wanted to do more for John.
