Chapter 151 Drive-In

It was Thresh’s first time to participate in a ghost event, and he was quite excited in the car. After Bobby introduced the drive-thru restaurant ghost incident, he couldn’t help but keep putting forward his own point of view: “The purpose of traditional crimes is basically profit. I think it should be It’s Yifeng’s own prank. There is no possibility or necessity for others to frame Yifeng, and Yifeng is very suspected of hyping himself. The purpose of his denial now is for the sake of the court, to make public the fact that he saw a ghost in the court, and cause a sensation.”

Before coming, Thresh already knew the location and the story of Hell.In order to protect Thresh, Marble lurked near the car restaurant three hours in advance.In the last communication before departure, Marble found no signs of human activity in the vicinity.Because of this, Thresh believes that the drive-thru restaurant is just an ordinary deserted place, a man-made ghost.He didn't understand why Bobby liked to go to places rumored to be haunted by ghosts and spirits, and he didn't understand why Liang Xi was willing to join in the fun for free.

Liang Xi said: "Chris, I don't quite agree with all your points. Premeditated and planned crimes usually have benefits, that's true. But if it was Yifeng's own hype, there is a contradiction that cannot be explained: Yifeng did not leave Return the evidence of your innocence."

Thresh disagreed: "Maybe he is just stupid? If he is not stupid, he can't use his own computer to write stories. Not every criminal is so clear-headed and his thinking is so clear. Many people are inexperienced, even if they carefully plan and conspire to commit crimes. It’s also easy to give away. Yifeng has done a good job, but he didn’t explain Liang Xi’s contradiction. But the trial hasn’t started yet, maybe Yifeng has retained evidence of his innocence?”

Liang Xi asked, "What evidence? Evidence that there really are ghosts?"

Thresh was stunned: "It's you who said that the contradiction left no evidence in Yifeng to repay your innocence."

Liang Xi said: "That's right, but it's not such evidence. The evidence I'm talking about is that when the story was posted on the website, Yifeng had evidence that he was not at home, which means that someone else posted the story at his house. Prove his innocence. The police investigation is very clear. It is all stories and website short stories sent by Yifeng's computer when he was at home. Yifeng may be stupid, but he is a person who has played the Internet for several years. He knows that even if he is in court Become the focus of attention of netizens, and after two years in prison, he will surely return to peace."

Liang Xidao: "Yifeng can't produce evidence in court, unless he can really produce ghostly evidence."

Liang Xi felt a bit off topic, why did he and Thresh debate whether Yifeng was playing a prank.In this case, Liang Xi used Yifeng as an innocent person as the basis for expanding his thinking.

Assuming that Yifeng lied, it would be good for everyone to drink tea and chat today.Assuming that Yifeng is telling the truth, it means that someone is playing tricks on this matter, or there are ghosts playing tricks.Simple question: what are the interests of ghosts and people?The ghost path is unknown, so put it aside for now.What is the purpose of the troublemaker?The purpose is to send Yifeng to the prison?With Yifeng's short, fat, poor and stupid label, who can have such a big hatred with Yifeng?

From this, it can be inferred that Yifeng is not the target, and he has no value of being the target.

Thresh said on the side: "There are various possibilities for the court to come back. Yifeng is purposefully hiding evidence, in order to let himself be sent to the dock and become a celebrity. Before the final judgment, Yifeng will show The evidence came out..."

"Shut up." Liang Xi replied annoyedly, he was thinking if he was sensible or not.At this time, you said a lot of information for yourself to digest and think about, but you couldn't accept it.

Liang Xi continued to ponder and analyze.

Yifeng is not the goal, is money the goal?Someone bought the land here?No, it's impossible, the land here is so cheap.Besides, Nolan's public service facilities, water and electricity, etc. have all been stopped.To rebuild Nolan requires a huge investment, definitely not a small haunted story can support.

What are the interests and things that will appear because of the haunting next?

It seems that only Bobby is left. Anyone who knows and understands Bobby knows that he is keen on supernatural places.

Thresh was sulking at this moment, shut up for a while, and Thresh thought of something. He wanted to continue to be angry and kept silent, but finally couldn't help but said: "Could it be that the owner of the website planned this case? It wasn't to hype Nolan Motors at all. restaurants, but to hype supernatural websites?"

Bobby explained: “Spiritual websites are similar to alien websites, and the audience base will basically not change much in a short period of time. If you say something, people still don’t believe it. Even if you don’t say anything, people still don’t believe it. The letter will still be believed. There are many people who believe in souls, but not many people believe in ghosts. The benefits of website hype are not high. This kind of case has reached the level of criminal police intervention, and those who are interested will wait for the final result. If If you really want to hype, Yifeng can't get out of the car restaurant unscathed."

Bobby said: "Spiritual websites have their own set of ghost rules, such as resentment, possession, exorcism, etc. They don't appear in the couple stories and Yifeng stories. Therefore, I think Liang Xi is right. Yifeng is not. It’s hype.” The correct answer is: Liang Xi is always right, and it’s definitely right to go with him.

Thresh has not yet comprehended this truth, he is not willing to admit defeat like this, and his idea has been supported by the police.Thresh continued to analyze and explain Yifeng's self-directed and self-acted.The more he talked, the more he talked, the more energetic he was, Liang Xi, who was sitting in the back row, couldn't think quietly, and was carried away by Thresh's argument at every turn.

This is politeness and instinct. When others speak, Liang Xi will instinctively listen to what others say and think about what others say.Daily Bobby will ask: how?Have you found anything?Liang Xi will speak out, and at the same time, it can help Liang Xi straighten out the incident.On the contrary, Thresh is Barabara's side, front and back to prove his thoughts and opinions, and what he says is quite reasonable.But the problem was that Liang Xi didn't agree with any of the questions, and Thresh raised a bunch of questions in one breath, which Liang Xi couldn't digest.Thresh abruptly blocked Liang Xinao's expressway into a narrow path.

In hell with Poppy, Poppy provides information, waits for Liang Xi to think, asks questions.

To hell with Thresh, Thresh wished he could stuff all his personal thoughts into the two of them's minds to prove the correctness of his reasoning.Thresh's reasoning seems to be a little bit, but he cares too much about side issues.It is right to care about the details, but when the strategy is not determined, starting to practice personal tactics is irrelevant.

……

The three cars got off the highway and drove about ten kilometers on the broken, overgrown, and uneven road, and arrived at the Nolan drive-thru restaurant.

Thresh took the lead, Bobby followed, and Liang Xi leaned against the car door to calm down for a while.The head of the bodyguard ordered AC to keep the distance between the two cars and arrange area defense.There are other vehicles entering the area, so that the bodyguards can be informed at the first time.

The chief bodyguard, Willie and two bodyguards stayed in car B, which was parked 20 meters opposite the motel.Liang Xi was very worried and said to the bodyguard: "Search this area."

The head of the bodyguard: "Car A returns to help, search the area." Liang Xi didn't use polite words, coupled with his undisguised irritability, made the head of the bodyguard a little nervous.

"Car A understands."

Car A turned around and came back. Four bodyguards got out of the car. They entered the drive-thru restaurant in groups of two and went out to the back door.The back door of the restaurant is a stream, and the reeds are as dense as a beard.The motel is in the downstream of Nolan Town, and you can reach Nolan Town four kilometers away along the creek.

Ten minutes later, Car A reported: "No problem."

"Go back to work." Several bodyguards of car B took refreshments from the trunk and sent them to the car restaurant. The chief bodyguard asked, "Mr. Liang, do you want to go in and sit down together?"

Liang Xi said: "My head is buzzing, I feel uncomfortable. Let me use the intercom."

The chief bodyguard gave Liang Xi his intercom, and Liang Xi pressed the intercom and said, "I'm very irritable, I won't go in for now."

Bobby teased: "Hey! Are you jealous?"

Liang Xi was furious: "Eat your sister."

Bobby knew that Thresh had a lot to say, all the way from London, 75% of the words were said by Thresh.On the way, Liang Xi was very rude to tell Thresh to shut up, and Bobby could understand Liang Xi's irritability.Bobby said: "You take a rest in the car first."

"Okay." Liang Xi returned the intercom to the head of the bodyguard. The head of the bodyguard was very patient. He motioned for the others to bring in the tea and snacks. He stayed by Liang Xi's side. He saw that Liang Xi needed someone to talk to. , so the chief bodyguard guided: "I can't figure out the reason for this case. The first possibility is that Yifeng is stupid and wants to use this method to become famous, but if he is really stupid, he will not think of this method. The second possibility is that Yifeng's The encounter may be true. The second one may be more complicated." The chief bodyguard sitting in the co-pilot listened to Thresh's analysis all the way.

Liang Xi followed his train of thought and said: "Someone is doing bad things nearby, and a couple happened to pass by, and the couple was frightened. But it can't explain why someone sneaked into Yifeng's house."

Liang Xidao: "Sneak into Yifeng's house, bet with the website, steal the hotel owner's fingerprint engraving, and steal Yifeng's blood. Why? I don't know. I asked myself, doing this..."

Thresh's voice came from the intercom: "Liang Xi, the table is very clean and strong. Normally, if a blanket is laid, even if a man and a woman talk for an hour, the dusty table will not be wiped clean. I'm sure Yifeng intentionally created the scene."

"Fuck!" Liang Xi swept his hair, annoying!If it was Bobby, he would have scolded him long ago.Because he was not very familiar with Thresh, Liang Xi had to politely reply: "Okay, got it."

"You mean you don't agree with me?" Thresh said, "I never..."

The chief bodyguard turned down his voice, took out a cigar from his waist and handed it to Liang Xi: "Let's relax."

After cutting the cigarette butt and lighting the fire, Liang Xi took a puff of the cigar, exhaled the smoke, and asked, "Where did I just say?"

The bodyguard said: "The other party stole Yifeng's blood and the hotel owner's fingerprints."

Liang Xi said: "Yes! All this shows that this is not an ordinary criminal. The cost is higher and the risk is greater. Where is the benefit? What is his purpose? To consider this, we must consider it comprehensively. After everything happens, What is bound to happen?"

Liang Xi's analysis: "Yifeng is in jail? No one should care about it, and it is of no benefit to anyone. The motel has become a check-in point for Internet celebrities? In fact, it is suspected that Yifeng is famous for making fake cases. The place where such cases are committed And the perpetrators will not be disclosed to the media." For example, some serial killers kill for fame, and his name and photo will be sealed after arrest, so as to tell everyone that no one can rely on killing to become famous.

Liang Xi said: "With so much cost invested, there is only one thing that will inevitably happen, that is, your boss, a fool, will fall into the trap of himself. No, I am very disturbed, we have to get out of here."

The chief bodyguard did not hesitate: "Tighten up the formation, team B is responsible for receiving the packages."

At this time, Thresh, who was sitting on the seat, said a lot of his own reasoning through the intercom, but seeing that Liang Xi didn't respond at all, he stood up and looked out the window, wanting to see what Liang Xi was doing.Then Thresh's body shook and fell sideways on the seat, before rolling to the ground.

After delivering the snacks, Willie who walked to the door heard the order to collect the package, and just turned around when he saw Thresh fall headlong, and immediately called: "Sniper."

Willie rushed into the restaurant, yanked Bobby off the seat and pinned him to the ground, and Willie was shot and fell.

The drive-thru restaurant was well lit, and the chief bodyguard could see clearly, judging from the direction of Willy's fall: "Southwest direction, smoke bomb."

Two bodyguards leaned against the wall at the door, took out smoke bombs and threw them in.It took some time for the smoke bomb to produce smoke, and the gunman was still firing. A bullet hit the table, and the kettle filled with boiling tea was blown apart, and the boiling water splashed everywhere.

The head of the bodyguard pulled the car door, stuffed Liang Xi in, drew his gun, bent over and quickly headed towards the restaurant: "Red alert, car C immediately enters the restaurant to pick up the package."

At this time, a very loud gunshot resounded through the night sky, and the bodyguard called: "Gunshots are coming from the north, suspected to be .50 caliber." .50 caliber bullets are usually used in heavy machine guns and anti-materiel sniper rifles, and are extremely powerful. Next to it is a big hole.

While talking, car C rushed into the restaurant from the side, knocked open the door panel and glass of the restaurant, and a drift brake stopped at the position of the smoke bomb.Two bodyguards at the door immediately stepped forward and stuffed Willie, Bobby, and Thresh into the car. Car C smashed through the front wall and rushed out of the restaurant.The head bodyguard watched car C leave from the side, and ran back to car B quickly.At this time, the sound of another .50 bullet came, and the chief bodyguard subconsciously got down.

Liang Xi backed up to the head of the bodyguard, who opened the door to get into the car, Liang Xi turned to the main entrance, and the two bodyguards got into the car one after another.Chief bodyguard: "Go away, our bulletproof glass and body can't stop .50 bullets. Call the police!"

As Liang Xi was driving, a bodyguard called the police, and the head of the bodyguard called: "Car C, how is the package?"

The bodyguard responded: "The package is unharmed. Willie and Chris were shot. Judging from the wound, it should be a small-caliber rifle."

"I didn't hear the sound of a small-caliber rifle. The opponent should be a small-caliber rifle sniper equipped with a muffler." The head of the bodyguard explained the opponent's armed forces to Liang Xi and his team members, and continued to ask: "Injury status."

The bodyguard responded: "Chris had a penetrating wound. The bullet pierced through the abdomen. Visual inspection did not hurt the vitals. It is speculated that there were multiple ruptures in the large intestine. Willie...Willie is dead, shot in the chest."

The bodyguard smashed the intercom: "Fack."

After getting angry, the head of the bodyguard immediately adjusted his mentality and contacted the security team of the manor by phone: "Red attack alarm, immediately notify the family of the package, the package was not shot. Repeat, the package was not shot. Give car C the address of the nearest hospital and notify the hospital Take the wounded."

Because Chris' talkativeness affected his judgment, Liang Xi suspected Chris for a moment, but only for a moment, after all, he was shot.Before getting on the highway, Liang Xi pulled over and replaced with a bodyguard to drive.The chief bodyguard has been busy contacting the outside world. The housekeeper, Bobby's father, the police, and the bodyguard company all called to inquire about the situation.The bodyguard company has dispatched a team of armed personnel from London to a nearby hospital, ready to escort Bobby back to his home with armed force.

Leaning against the window, Liang Xi saw many police cars heading towards the drive-thru restaurant, and police helicopters flying over the roofs of the cars, everything seemed so unreal.
