Chapter 320 Party

Shopping is risky, especially for celebrities like Liang Xi.After nesting in the apartment for a week, Liang Xi went downstairs to visit the detective agency, but when he arrived at the underground parking lot, he met the paparazzi guarding him.It turned out that someone knew that Liang Xi lived here, but because of the physical barrier of Liang Xi's exclusive VIP elevator, he didn't come to the door. .The paparazzi came up and raised their mobile phones and started asking questions and inviting them. Liang Xi had no choice but to retreat to the elevator and go back to the first floor to get rid of the other party's harassment.

Liang Xi borrowed a mask from the security guard on the first floor and went out. He passed the detective agency in a taxi, but there were people outside the detective agency?Liang Xi is on fire, with so many people in the world, so many celebrities, so many politicians, can't there be a few who are responsible for it?There is no choice but to continue to take the bus and get off at the commercial street in front.After getting off the car, he wandered around aimlessly, entered the shopping mall, and then entered a jewelry store to avoid the suspected paparazzi or Internet celebrities who were holding mobile phones.

Liang Xi was attracted by the dazzling array of jewelry, so he stopped and looked at it intently.Jewelry store service is Liang Xi's favorite type.Liang Xi hates entering a store the most. Before he can even look, the voice of salesman can be heard in his ears, and the salesperson follows along asking, talking, and bragging, which makes you completely unable to calm down.The service of this store is very good, the salesperson did not bother Liang Xi, and only intervened after Liang Xi hesitated and thought for a long time: "Sir, do you need me to give you a reference?"

Liang Xi came back to his senses, chuckled, nodded, and said, "Ring."

The salesperson asked, "Is it a courtship or a marriage proposal?"

Liang Xi was a little curious: "Is it different?"

The salesperson replied: "Courtship refers to two people who have not established a relationship, but have accepted each other and need a ceremony to confirm the relationship."

Liang Xi said regretfully, "Skip it."

The salesperson kept smiling and picked up a diamond ring: "A marriage proposal is not about the size of the diamond ring, but more about the process of the ceremony. A diamond ring is the least necessary item in a marriage proposal, but it is an essential item. It is not recommended to spend too much money. You should put Save your money and buy a pair of wedding rings that will last you decades after you propose."

Liang Xi took the diamond ring and looked at it for a while: "That's it." This is the same as the small umbrella, you can not use it, but you can't be unprepared.On the contrary, when you are ready, it means you have this idea.

Liang Xi was not familiar with the jewelry market, the other party said [-] pounds, only [-] pounds, Liang Xi did not bargain.While sitting on the sidelines waiting for the ring to be boxed, I received a call from House: Bobby is having a party tonight, and Liang Xi is invited to watch the surveillance video together.

"it is good."

After hanging up the phone, Liang Xi continued to wait, but saw Baker sneaking in from the door.Liang Xi immediately stood up and leaned aside. Baker looked around and walked up to the salesperson: "I want to buy a proposal ring."

Liang Xi smiled and watched from the side. After Baker swiped his card, Liang Xi said leisurely: "I want to buy a proposal ring."

"What a coincidence?" Baker turned his head and saw Liang Xi, his face flushed instantly, but he was from the Jianghu after all, so he came over and sat on the sofa with Liang Xi's shoulders: "Do you think it's okay?"

Liang Xi said: "It may not work if you ask for it, and it will definitely not work if you don't ask for it."

Baker felt that it was reasonable, and he also knew it, but there was a difference between knowing and doing it.He needs others to support his ideas before he can take this step without shame.Baker asked, "Why are you here?"

The salesperson brings the gift bag with the ring: "Hi sir, your engagement ring is packed."

Baker's original red face turned into an expression of interest: "Are you proposing?"

Liang Xi spread his hands.

Baker asked: "Have you considered it? Now that she beats you, you can call the police. After you get married, if she beats you, as long as you don't die, the police generally can't handle it."

Liang Xi said: "Did you know? 90% of love is developed when girls beat boys."

Baker was startled: "Wow? What kind of cold knowledge is this?"

Liang Xi asked: "Let's talk about something serious. I wanted to contact Liu Zhen, but it's better to meet him by chance. I need force."

Baker asked, "What do you mean?"

Liang Xi said: "For example, if I propose to your sister, I may succeed, or I may be beaten. Although the chance of being beaten is very low, I hope someone can come to save me before I am beaten to death."

Baker suddenly said, "Understood." I liked what Liang Xi said, explaining why he needed force in an easy-to-understand manner.

Liang Xi said, "So you are interested?"

Baker said: "You even dare to marry my sister, I should help you."

"Haha." Liang Xi couldn't comment on this, Liang Xi reminded: "Assuming the proposal is successful, you don't exist."

"Understood. Who is it?"

"Ninja flower."

Baker froze immediately when he heard Ninja's expression, he shouldn't ask.Okay, take the special police, two groups are enough, right?
……

It is difficult for poor people like Liang Xi to understand the lives of rich people.He didn't understand why Poppy still had a house dedicated to parties.The house just sits there on a daily basis, with a basic cleaning done every two weeks, and its only purpose is to throw parties.And the price of this house is at least one million pounds.

A house specially prepared for parties is very suitable for parties. The first condition is not to disturb the people.Taking the British situation as an example, people usually don't report to the police and don't investigate the situation such as disturbing the people, so many yacht parties have been derived.The location of the house is in the golden-collar residential area of ​​Chelsea District. There is a lake beach, which is more than 300 meters away from the nearest residential house in a straight line. Green trees are planted in the middle to effectively reduce noise.For safety and privacy, the house is surrounded by a fence more than two meters high, with anti-climbing steel wires stretched on it.There is no monitoring in the house, allowing young people to play happily in it.

Condition two, there is a swimming pool.Not only there, but there are two more. The indoor heated swimming pool on the first floor needs to be fired in advance for the party.As for the outdoors, although the temperature is below zero, there are also swimming pools, but I believe that few people are willing to go there to play.

Plus, BBQ's and intimate spots aplenty
This house has three entrances and exits.The first entrance is the main entrance. There is a security guard at the main entrance to check the mobile phone. Only guests who have received the invitation information from the host can enter, and guests are allowed to bring one person.The second door is the side door. Next to the side door is a place dedicated to the work of chefs and waiters. The trucks of the takeaway hotel can be parked here.This door is in charge of the security of the hotel, and guests are not allowed to enter and exit through this road, which is also a safety consideration.If someone is killed at the party, although the party host will not be punished, civil liability cannot be escaped.

The third entrance is the artificial lake wharf facing the back door. The artificial lake is small and connects to the Thames River.Some party participants came directly by yacht. There are full-time security guards at the yacht dock and obvious cameras are installed for the safety of the yacht.This entrance and exit can only be Bobby's friends.

Bobby has many friends.Entertainment and sports stars, big and small Internet celebrities, idle rich second generation, race car drivers, fighters, socialites, models, actors, etc.There are also some public relations personnel, such as the London Museum, which is exclusively sponsored by the Clement family, will have special personnel to attend the Clement family party, and they can also get tickets.

The party guests are dominated by women, accounting for about 80%, and 80% of the 80% are party queens.Men are mainly from the rich second generation, and the family property starts at 50 million pounds, with no upper limit.In addition, princes from oil rich countries such as Saudi Arabia also attended the party.Not sure if the male party guests are good-natured, but I can be sure that the men who attend the party have two characteristics.The first feature is that they are unmarried, even if they are married, they can legally marry another wife.The second characteristic is affluence.

But for some female guests, it is not a party that only attends because of the rich and the second generation.To them, they just need a party, a classy party.Poppy's parties were attractive to girls for another reason: there was absolutely no coercion of women, and no flour at the party.If you are drunk, there will be a special car to take you home. As long as you don't make trouble, you can play as much as you want.

At [-] o'clock in the evening, a group of [-] pounds of fireworks will come to the beach first.When the fireworks were blooming, Liang Xi came to the Shadow Detective Agency. Today, all members of the Shadow Detective Agency are working overtime and everyone is watching the surveillance.Liang Xi couldn't help but worry, and asked House: "How many cameras are installed?"

House gestured to Liang Xi, and replied, "72."

"Damn it." Liang Xi was shocked not by how well he could do it, but by how he hid the 72 cameras.

Seeing Liang Xi's expression, House led Liang Xi into a room similar to a standard hotel room. The furniture inside was not much different from that of a star hotel: "This room has 121 cameras, and it is where we practice our daily skills."

There is a small living room in the room, and a master bedroom with two single beds, which can be combined into a large single bed if necessary.The shower room and toilet are located in the living room.The bedroom has all the bedside tables and so on, clean and tidy, without any clutter.

House motioned to Liang Xi to invite him, but Liang Xi was not polite. He picked up the ladder on one side and checked the ventilation duct first.Check the TV cabinet again and there is nothing.Liang Xi removed all the lamps, but still did not find them.Liang Xi didn't use all his skills, he should praise people when he should.However, after House revealed the answer, Liang Xi knew that he was still too immature and couldn't keep up with the times.

This is a socket, a very common socket, with two holes on the top and three holes on the bottom, and it can be used normally.But who would have thought that the screw in the middle is a camera?Liang Xi held the screw camera in his hand and looked at the nut for a long time. It was just a very ordinary black cross nut, and he couldn't find it was a camera unless he took it out.The lens cannot be seen with the naked eye even after taking it out.

The screw camera was beyond Liang Xi's expectation, and the bathroom surprised Liang Xi even more. There was a camera hidden in the nameplate of the water heater, and a camera protruding from the back of the water heater activated by the weight of the bathtub.And the last fixed hook on the shower curtain is also the camera.

These cameras have two characteristics: camouflage and fixation.Such as nuts, such as hooks, such as the hook on the edge of the curtain, it cannot be pulled.The hooking camera itself has the hooking function.Many people have another way to deal with the camera, which is to search after turning off the lights.Some of the cameras in House's room are light-sensitive cameras, which automatically turn off when there is no light.Even with an infrared camera, nothing is worth photographing in the dark.It can neither be legal evidence nor literary.

Of course, some of the cameras are still relatively rough, and it is easier to find them if you look for them.House told Liang Xi that the camera standard is determined according to the needs of customers, and one to three cameras are enough for daily use.Poppy's party venue has many advantages, such as no one will climb trees, no one will pay attention to the tiles on the exterior wall on the second floor, and no one will touch the rain cloth protruding from the third floor.That's why House and the others boldly installed up to 72 cameras, some of which also have remote control and rotation functions.At the same time, they also used technical means to cover up the signal transmission. As for the means used, House was in charge of the experts when he went home. He didn't understand the bullshit.

House invited Liang Xi to the office and chatted and drank tea while watching the video. He briefly explained Thresh's plan, the core of which was to surround three and free one.Every step has a vulnerability that is easily overlooked.

Rather than answering camera questions, House would rather take the time to comment on Thresh and his plan: "Detailed and cumbersome. From what I understand, even intelligence personnel are not necessarily that careful. This leads to an increase in our workload. Not much. He made every step of the plan, taking into account the possibility that the other party would not step into the trap of being shortlisted. For example, we invited three hotels to organize together, hoping that Ninja would sneak into the party through this channel. He made three more calls on this plan patch."

House explained one of the patches: "The guest patch, he divides the guests into three parts, the first part is men, the second part is women, and the third part has women who may masquerade as men. There are several differences between Shinobi and the public. Listing them out one by one, he believes that ninjas have undergone rigorous training, and their movements are fundamentally different from those of ordinary men and women. My subordinates have to describe them to find ninjas that may be hidden among the guests."

"Okay, as long as you have the numbers." Liang Xi said, "Bobby is really tossed to death, and you are not easy to mess around in London." He was not interested in the plan.A detective is an impromptu artist, not a bad-bellied old crook.By the way, he ran on House with words and encouraged House to work hard.

House replied: "If Bobby dies, I will sneak back to the United States and never set foot in Europe in my life."

A voice came from the desk intercom: "Boss, camera No. 21."

House cut to camera No. 21, which was facing down at 21 degrees, followed by a blonde woman wearing a blue jumpsuit that exposed half of her left shoulder. The intercom said: "She seems to be looking for someone. .”

"Reina." Liang Xi checked the guest list with his mobile phone, and found that Chris was also invited, and Reina and Chris attended the party together.Liang Xi switched videos and searched for a while, but there was no sign of Chris.The inquiry revealed that Chris was followed by camera No. 22, and after his identity was confirmed, he was kicked out of the camera follow list.Now Chris is working with a black-haired woman to draw a portrait sketch with pencil and A4 paper on the spot.Although this behavior is a bit against the law at a party, for an artist, art is everywhere.

From shot 21, Reina is indeed looking for someone.Today there are more than 50 people attending the party, including waiters and other staff, the number of people present exceeds [-] and [-] people.Reina kept walking around the party, checking left and right.

Liang Xi asked, "Who is she looking for?"

"Not found."

House said: "Be careful, she is likely to be suspicious on purpose to test the security situation. Liang Xi, are you familiar with her?"

Liang Xi shook his head: "I don't know her well. She is a German. She has a branch in London. If I remember correctly, it's called Fable Company."

House dialed the number with his mobile phone: "Help me find a person named Lena, Fable Company."

After House hung up the phone, Liang Xi asked casually: "What system?" The judicial system or the shadow company's own system?Or is it the ca system?
House smiled and raised his teacup: "Good system."

　Yesterday, the deputy moderator handsome guy Yifeng communicated with the customer service. From the literal meaning, the investment did not fail, it just showed a problem.It will resume at the beginning of next month.

　　After the new year, I am one year old again. I light a cigarette and blow the cold wind with raindrops in the window. I no longer feel melancholy, but instead I think about the value of life.It's a pity that IQ and knowledge are both low, and I can't figure out any philosophical truth.The best choice is still to live in the present, so here I wish everyone a fortune and health, both money and health are indispensable.

　　By the way, a very interesting thing: on the eve of the New Year's Eve, several rain bombs were fired on the sky, resulting in continuous rain for several days.
