This case was originally supposed to be handled by the Southern District Criminal Investigation Department, but it was Robert who took notes for Liang Xi at the nearby police station, that is, Dao Feng intervened in the case. In addition to Dao Feng, Liang Xi also saw Mark from Mystery 5. Robert asked the transcript

Liang Xibie, who was probing around in the room, reasoned and directly told Liang Xi that the case was under the responsibility of the Chief Officer Group under the Operations Department.

The Metropolitan Police Department has several branches, and the main police work is handled by the frontline police department. The operations department is a department that supports other police types, including the forensic team, the task force, the dog team, etc. The chief officer

The team refers to a temporary department led by the Office of the Assistant Director of Operations that discloses the investigation status to police officers above the director level. It is a special case-handling method used when sensitive cases occur and supervision is required.

In addition to the chief team responsible for the investigation of this case, the investigation team of the professional department (Ministry of Internal Affairs) will supervise the entire investigation process of this case. This is a very high-level investigation team. In other words, the case and the internal personnel of the action team have

direct contact.

After Robert chatted for a few words, the conversation changed to the main topic: "Some blood was found from the backyard of Anna's house to the steps of the Thames River, where the shootout took place. The results of the blood test were obtained an hour ago. The Criminal Investigation Department immediately informed the Director of the Police Department.

, the director ordered the establishment of a chief officer group to investigate the case. The blood belonged to a Vietnamese named Hu Ming. Hu Ming is 31 years old, single, affiliated with the Special Firearms Command of the Operations Department, and is the captain of a special police team."

Except for limited departments such as Blades, which have special police establishments directly under them, when other departments need armed forces, they can contact the Special Firearms Command and they will dispatch special police.

Robert said: "The gangsters landed on the shore seven kilometers away from Anna's home. One gangster carried the body of another gangster to the shore, used leucine to destroy the body, and at the same time destroyed the remaining clues on the speedboat. There is currently no way to

Determine whether Hu Ming is a destroyed body or a fleeing gangster. The Firearms Command has issued a summons order, requiring all personnel to return to the Firearms Command as soon as possible to assemble."

Robert said: "Have you discovered that there are many similarities between the murders of Anna and John?"

Liang Xi nodded: "They are all professionals, and they are all Lure agents. I received a message before that before John was killed, a batch of K2 Lure agents to be processed was stolen."

"We know, but the person who called the police died of a heart attack in the Middle East at that time, and we can't know more details." The information Helen had was very backward, which may be a good thing for her safety. Robert asked: "Why are you looking for Anna?"

?”

"We found Anna from Tom. We think Anna may have had some improper relationship with Tom. Anna may have kept Tom's belongings or knew something."

Robert asked while recording: "What happened to Tom's relics?"

Liang Xi replied: "The information I received is that big shot A gave Tom a piece of information and asked Tom to blackmail big shot B. After Tom's death, the police conducted a comprehensive search of Tom's real estate, etc., but found no relevant items or clues."

Robert asked: "Who gave you the information?"

Liang Xi replied: "House."

"House, the boss of Shadow Detective Agency?"

"Yes." Liang Xi said, "We met during the Blood Moon invitation."

Robert looked at Liang Xi for a while and said: "House was the American intelligence liaison officer in London in his early years. It is said that he was fired from CA for misconduct. After that, House stayed in London to open a shadow detective agency. I asked my American friends privately, they also

I’m not sure what’s going on with House. I also participated in the House investigation team. Although I didn’t find any wrongdoing on his part, I know his character very well. This man is very cunning and tells lies a lot.”

Liang Xidao: "He doesn't have to say it, but if he says it, it should be basically true."

Robert shook his head and said: "For House, lying is commonplace. Believe me, when he said that big shot A asked Tom to blackmail big shot B, if the word blackmail is true, you should thank him for being honest with you.

."

"Damn it, I rarely deal with such shameless people." This bottom line is a bit low, too low for Liang Xi to accept. Liang Xi said: "On the other hand, House probably knows what Tom is like."

Robert sighed: "Maybe he wants you to think so. Do you want to know more information? Get money. After giving him the money, he will give you a piece of news and tell you that the news is unconfirmed and may be true.

It may be fake, you decide whether to buy it or not.”

Liang Xijing: "Is he still a liar?"

Robert said noncommittally: "So I would say that what House said is not credible at all. But maybe he is telling the truth."

"Fuck."

Robert: "I can now understand what you mean by fuck. I was on the task force back then, and the more I got to know House, the more fucked up I became."

Liang Xi recalled the content of the call between himself and House, and said: "I still think House should know something, or there is no big shot A at all. It was House who asked Tom to blackmail big shot B."

Robert said: "It's also possible that Tom blackmailed House."

"Holy shit!" Robert's ability to think like this shows that his understanding of House is unforgettable.

Robert said: "Anything related to House is possible. Okay, that's it for the record. We have to continue the in-depth investigation. First of all, we must determine whether Hu Ming is a dead gangster or a living gangster. I will send an email if I have any information.

Here you go, if you have any ideas, please contact me directly. If you solve the case, there will be a reward."

Liang Xi smiled and said with some embarrassment: "We are all friends regardless of money." Robert's frankness put more pressure on Liang Xi to accept the money. Of course, Liang Xi will definitely overcome this pressure.

As Robert said, this case looks somewhat similar to the case of John's murder. This also made Liang Xi a little confused. John seemed to Liang Xi to be a wise man, and the wise man's will told him to find the murderer from the root of the holy flag.

Should I obey John's will and put the Tom incident aside, or should I pursue the Tom case until the real culprit is found?

After living with John for more than ten years, John never missed it. This made Liang Xi very unhappy. John suggested that Liang Xi live in the garage. Liang Xi accepted Mary's advice and lived with John and Mary. Facts have proved that John was right.

Yue Liangxi moved to the garage by himself.

Liang Xi and John talked about their two girlfriends twice, and John clearly told Liang Xi that you were about to break up. Liang Xi couldn't bear it and tried his best to coax his girlfriend, but John was right both times.

Watching TV news with John and speculating on the truth and development direction of events is something Liang Xi enjoys. Of 10 news items, Liang Xi can get eight of them right and two wrong. John can also get eight of them right, but not two.

Wrong, because John did not comment on the other two uncertain news. Liang Xi often went crazy because he and John had the same opinions. Liang Xi, who was rebellious at his age, wanted to defeat John in a real sense. But until John's death, this goal had not been achieved

accomplish.

…

After coming out of the police station, a bodyguard was waiting outside to greet Liang Xi. He told Liang Xi that Bobby had gone home and arranged for two bodyguards to accompany Liang Xi. Bobby asked the bodyguard to tell Liang Xi: Find a way to sneak out tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

Liang Xi. Liang Xi thanked the bodyguards, contacted Bobby, and asked the bodyguards to go back. Since he took Bobby's car to Anna's house, Liang Xi took a taxi to the Shadow Detective Agency.

Shadow Detective Agency is said to be the best private detective agency in London. They have first-class professional ethics. This is directly related to their boss House. As an American, House never brags with his subordinates and talks about money directly.

70% of each employee's income in the first year is handed over to the company as a credit deposit. After the second year, it is 50%. After working for five years, all 70% and 50% will be taken back in the sixth year.

At this ratio, the company will give another 25% of the total amount as a reward. But if an employee betrays customer and company information, whether intentionally or unintentionally, not only will he not get a penny, but he will also be subject to a lawsuit. This confidentiality scope includes his wife

and immediate family members.

Shadow Detective Agency has been raided twice in the ten years since its establishment, both because of reports from employees who did not receive credit guarantees. The police found many illegal and prohibited technology products in the company, even Sword Butterfly-level technology products. However, the law does not require the possession of these things.

The person is guilty. Similar to flour, the manufacturer is guilty, the trafficker is guilty, and the user is not guilty (sucking flour is illegal in our country, not a crime). Unless the police prove that shadow companies or individuals use these illegal equipment to make profits, they cannot be linked to the shadow companies.

House was convicted.

Not only did these two searches fail to convict House, but they also served as a living advertisement for House. Many people knew that the Shadow Company possessed Sword Butterfly-level equipment and kept customer information confidential to the greatest extent possible.

However, the scale of the shadow company is not large. There are only ten to fifteen field employees on a daily basis. There are about five administrative, logistics and financial staff. The office area of ​​the shadow company is not large, and it is located in Yifan Building, 5 kilometers away from Boning Street.

On the 22nd floor, the actual office area is only 350 square meters.

When Liang Xi entered the shadow company, the first thing he saw was the reception desk. The entrance to the company was blocked by the ID door. The receptionist asked, and Liang Xi told him: "My name is Liang Xi. I'm looking for House."

The receptionist said: "Our boss is not here."

Liang Xidao: "Then inform your boss that the monthly rent will be increased by five thousand pounds in the second half of the year. No, increase by fifty thousand pounds. Otherwise, get out."

The receptionist was a little confused and said, "Wait a moment, I'll contact the boss." She didn't know how the company's rent was calculated.

After House's assistant received the call, he explained to House. House took the phone and said, "Let him come in."

…

The receptionist dialed the internal phone number, and the staff inside swiped the card to open the door, and Liang Xi entered the shadow company. There were no open offices in the company, all were separate offices, and the doors were closed. When Liang Xi looked around, House appeared in

At the end of the corridor, he waved his hand: "This way."

House's office is more than fifty square meters, and there is also a ten-square-meter personal rest area. House asked Liang Xi to sit down. After asking, he pressed the phone and asked his assistant to bring two cups of coffee. House introduced the basic situation of Shadow Company, and the assistant

After bringing in the coffee, go out and close the door.

House sat opposite Liang Xi: "I'm surprised that you came to me."

Liang Xi asked: "Why?"

House said: "First tell me what is the purpose of looking for me?"

Liang Xidao: "I want to verify something about Tom."

"What about Tom?" House smiled and said, "I thought you were not at this stage, Liang Xi. Did you spend too much time with ordinary people and your IQ dropped?"

Liang Xi didn't understand what he meant. House saw it and said: "Based on my judgment of your level, you should know which information I told you is true. Well, for the sake of the Blood Moon invitation

For the sake of helping me, I’ll help you sort it out.”

Liang Xi thought about the memories: "I asked you to ask about Tom, because Tom worked at the Shadow Company for a year."

House said: "You have asked the wrong question. You know that Tom has been working at Shadow Company for a year, and you also know that Tom has been away from Shadow Company for nearly five years. If I are not familiar with Tom, do you think I can still remember this person?

? If Tom and I were familiar, do you think our relationship could be better than my relationship with Tom?"

Damn! It makes sense.

House said: "So I was a little confused at the time. Isn't it a bit too much for you to ask me this question?"

Liang Xi admitted: "I didn't think about it that much."

House said: "Then you continue to ask about Tom."

Liang Xidao: "You tell me that big shot A will give Tom the handle and let him blackmail big shot B."

House said: "You are young! The key is not to let muddy water flow. I told you that I don't know who the big shot is, why do I call it muddy water? So I know something, and I suggest you not to worry about it. Finally

Let me remind you again, this water is very dirty. If I don’t even know who the big shot is, how do I know the water is dirty?”
