Chapter 18 Translation
After turning right for more than ten meters, there is a big iron gate of a printing factory. The big iron gate is opened together, and the car drives into the printing factory and drives directly into the workshop.

Liu Zhen asked Liang Xi to pull over to stop, Liang Xi and Liu Zhen got out of the car, and Liang Xi found out that this was a headquarters.In the middle is an open conference room, an equipment desk, a short-haired girl is controlling a computer, and various electronic devices are placed beside her.The police scattered on both sides gathered in twos and threes and talked in low voices. They wore bulletproof vests and tactical pants, pistols were pinned to their waists, and tactical helmets, assault rifles, shotguns and other weapons were placed on the table.

Liu Zhen explained: "Find a place to sit by yourself, there is water in the refrigerator, and you can do it yourself." Liu Zhen saw Liang Xi's calm and relaxed expression when he saw this scene, and thought that Liang Xi was an old translator who had experienced battles. So there is no politeness, and I go about my own business.

"Ok."

Liang Xi activated his detective skills to determine who was in the house.From the point of view of equipment, it does not meet the MI5 standard, but the equipment is higher than that of ordinary police detectives.Except for the short-haired girl from the technician, everyone else was wearing body armor, and their weapons were on hand.Therefore, Liang Xi judged them to be SFOs.Either the anti-terrorist team, the powder-hunting team, or the customs police.

Trained in police firearms, ordinary police field workers are called AFOs. SFO refers to professional offensive police, generally used to solve high-risk cases, hostage cases and counter-terrorism needs.Different from SWAT, SFO is also responsible for detection, investigation, investigation, planning and other functions. It is an independent and powerfully armed group.CTSFO is derived from SFO, and its level is equivalent to the French National Gendarmerie, which is the highest-level police combat unit.In the UK only MI5 and MI6 will have CTSFO teams.

A man came over with a bulletproof vest: "Take off your jacket and raise your hand."

Before Liang Xi recovered, the bulletproof vest was put on his body, and the man left.

Hello!Brother, did you make a mistake?My hourly salary is 80 pounds, not 800 pounds. It should not be a job in body armor.Wearing body armor means there is a chance of getting shot, no matter how big or small the chance is, Liang Xi is unwilling.

The lights here are bright and dark, and Liang Xi has not yet adapted to the environment.Liang Xi tried to communicate with the nearest police officer: "Excuse me, where is Inspector Liu Zhen Liu?"

"You sit first." The other party didn't even look at Liang Xi, he continued to polish his gun with a cigar in his mouth.

Fortunately, Liu Zhen came back soon and led Liang to a brightly lit area. Two men stood by the table with assault rifles on their backs. Liu Zhen introduced, "Baker, Owen."

Shaking hands with each other, Liang Xi's hand hurt a little.Liu Zhen explained Liang Xi's work.They had secretly arrested a flour convict.The flour prisoner informed that there would be a transaction in the early morning of tomorrow. The transaction took place in an empty warehouse at a coal-fired wharf in the Po Bay of the Thames. The flour prisoner said that he could go to the transaction with Liu Zhen.But Liu Zhen doesn't believe in flour criminals,

Liu Zhen explained: "His name is Wang Shuang. Because of the traffic, the patrol police found his car and found a lot of flour under the back seat cushion. We don't know Wang Shuang's background, only know that he is Hungarian Chinese. We can't I am sure that the counterparty in the early morning transaction has the same ethnic Chinese, and I am worried that Wang Shuang communicates with them in dialect. There are various possibilities, and we must take all of them into consideration when making a battle plan, so we need a translator to supervise this transaction. "

Liang Xi wanted to cry a little, but he said something was wrong.Since there is a Liu Zhen who is so fluent in Chinese, why do you need an interpreter?Liang Xi, who doesn't understand dialects or anything, is purely for making some money.To be fair, there are no people who only speak dialects these days.

Liang Xiqiang calmly asked, "Which dialect?" If it is Hokkien and Cantonese, it can still be dealt with. Liang Xi's father likes to listen to and sing Hokkien and Cantonese songs, and he knows a few words.Furthermore, some words are very close to Chinese and can be guessed.But if it is Chaoshan dialect and Hakka dialect, it is not as good as Liang Xi's Japanese word reserve.

Liu Zhen shook his head: "I don't know, it's just a precautionary measure. You follow Baker, and Baker will protect your safety. Your job is to listen to their conversations and inform Baker if you find any abnormalities. To prevent the scare, our support will take you a minute. After that, we can arrive at the scene within two minutes.”

Liang Xi said: "It's better to have images, such as Chaoshan dialect, not only dialects but also specific gestures."

Liu Zhen replied: "You can directly see the transaction process."

Liang Xi was startled: "You won't let me trade, will you?"

Liu Zhen said: "Of course not. Now the flour criminals are getting more and more savvy, they will carry and use signal jammers in the transaction. You and Baker have to sneak into the warehouse first, we have already selected the location. You can see it on the second floor of the warehouse. The entire transaction and hearing their conversations. Baker was contacting us with a satellite phone that wouldn't be jammed by jammers."

The purpose of the signal jammer carried by the flour criminal is to prevent the police from going undercover and blackmailers.You can't get through on the phone, you can't use the radio, and naturally you can't transmit images and sounds.Therefore, the outside world cannot know the progress of the transaction, which provides a certain security guarantee for illegal transactions.Satellite phones operate in a wide range of frequency bands, from 300 MHz to 3G MHz, making it nearly impossible to jam and block them.

In addition to the group of Baker and Liang Xi, Liu Zhen will lead a group of people to ambush nearby.Owen and a police officer accompany Wang Shuang to trade with the other party as a horse boy.There was no group of Baker and Liang Xi in the plan, but Liu Zhen temporarily added a group to prevent Wang Shuang from playing tricks.

After introducing the plan, Liu Zhen said apologetically: "The time is too tight, we can't determine the dialect the other party may master, and we can't find a suitable translation. Therefore, we can only ask you to assist us."

To be honest with Liu Zhen, there is no other translation objectively.Anyway, Liang Xi also knew a little Cantonese and Hokkien. Since he lied to others, he has to be responsible to the end.Although it is possible for the team to get into trouble because of himself, after learning that he can see and hear, Liang Xi still has confidence in himself.

There are several reasons why Liang Xi did not tell Liu Zhen the truth.The first reason is that Liu Zhen's group has no other good choices.The second reason is that Liang Xi has confidence in himself.The third and most important reason is that Liu Zhen's team is an important judicial resource, and it may provide indirect help to himself in the investigation of John's death.The last reason is naturally that Liang Xi did not want to lose the job.

Baker, a strong blond man, patted Liang Xi on the shoulder and shook hands with Liang Xi: "No problem, I will protect your safety." Seeing Liang Xi's face a little ugly, he mistakenly thought that Liang Xi was worried about his own safety.He thinks too much. When a person is poor to a certain level, safety is definitely not a priority.

Fortunately, Liang Xi is also someone who has seen the world, and is very courageous. In order to thank Baker for his encouragement, Liang Xi reached out and shook hands with Baker.
