Chapter 551 Association
Thresh ended the call, Liang Xi took out his mobile phone and contacted House: "Brother handsome, let's have lunch together at noon."

House: "If you treat me, I don't dare not go." The young man who pays the bill is the boss.Middle-aged people, on the other hand, owe others a favor by inviting others to eat.

"Haha." After a perfunctory laugh, Liang Xi said, "I didn't invite you, but the old man will entrust me to invite you to dinner."

Chris's face was twisted on the spot. It turned out that it was so painful to be borrowed a knife, and he should not have been involved in this matter.On second thought, with Liang Xi's character, it's not whether you want to get involved, but whether you are worth getting involved.

House's tone sank immediately: "The Orphans Association? I have no dealings with them."

Liang Xi said: "Don't get me wrong, the Gu Laohui helped me a few days ago, and I will be the middleman this time. It doesn't matter if you don't want to."

House thought for a while: "How about Indian food?"

"Curry?" Liang Xi said, "Okay."

House Road: "There is an Asan restaurant near my company. I'll reserve a place. See you at noon."

"Ok."

Bobby pointed to himself and kicked Liang Xi, who said helplessly, "House, there is a prodigal who also wants to join in the fun."

House smiled: "Some people can't avoid it, but he's happy to lean up. It doesn't matter, I myself admire Viscount Poppy."

Liang Xi was surprised: "Viscount?"

Poppy heard some: "Viscount?"

House Road: "It's just hearsay. It is said that the royal family held a secret meeting with the nobles of the upper council to discuss the restoration of the title of the Clement family. Over the past few decades, the Clement family has made great contributions to the society and Britain. , it is logical to restore the title." If there is no fief, it is just a title, why don't you agree?Well, it is possible to disagree for other reasons.But are you sure you want to offend the Clement family?Restoring the title does not hinder your interests, so why make enemies?

Liang Xi smiled: "Okay, see you at noon."

Chris kept pointing at himself, and Liang Xi hung up the phone: "Chris, this matter is more dangerous, so don't go."

Poppy asked in surprise: "Restore the title?" If so, then he is the most successful patriarch of the Clement family for hundreds of years.

"I don't know." Liang Xi didn't want to confess.

Poppy rubbed her hands: "I'll ask Daisy to find someone to see if she needs an activity..."

"No, don't move. If you move, it may be gone." Liang Xi said seriously: "I'm not joking."

Poppy had blind obedience and trust in Liang Xi's serious expression: "Okay." He got emotional and hugged Liang Xi.

Liang Xi disliked pushing and kicking and refused: "Go away, go away, go away!"

Chris wanted to fight for his playing time, but when he saw the two sparring, he couldn't get in at all, so he had no choice but to give up.

……

Curry is a favorite way of cooking in Southeast Asia.Thai, Vietnamese, Malay, Indonesian, and Australian mixed curries are said to have their own characteristics, and the most awesome is India.To put it simply, curry is to throw a lot of spices and ingredients into a pot and boil it. Whether it is delicious or not depends on the combination of spices and ingredients.The more spices you use, the more likely the flavor will be out of balance and the more likely you will create a great-tasting food.

Rice mixed with mutton curry, plus some fresh vegetables cooked with only salt to relieve tiredness, Liang Xi felt quite good after a few bites.But this thing is okay to eat occasionally, and often can't stand it, and the mouth is full of spice.

House, Liang Xi and Bobby eat first and discuss food culture.Liang Xi naturally believes that Chinese food is the best in the world, while House thinks that the United States condenses the essence of global cultural cuisine. For this reason, Poppy has been severely attacked, because the United Kingdom is known as the desert of food by many countries.Heard of Chinese food, Thai food, Mexican food, French food, Italian food, not many people have heard of British food.

After teasing and joking, the three of them happily ended their meal, and it was time for tea and tea.Authentic Indian food doesn't have dessert and tea time, but this is British.As many people have always believed that American Chinese food is not authentic, the problem is that authentic Chinese food has a small audience in the United States.In fact, when the eight major domestic cuisines operate across regions, they all have to make changes to suit the tastes of local people.

After confirming that the meeting place was safe, House first entered the topic: "I have eaten, it's time to get down to business."

Liang Xi kept a smile and nodded, and said, "I'll first explain that this incident is related to Serra's murder. Therefore, the Gu Laohui will strongly intervene. During the investigation, I found some clues and need to consult you."

House said: "I also know people from the Orphanage Association."

Liang Xi said, "I believe it."

House: "You said."

Liang Xi said: "Let's get straight to the point. Two questions, what is the connection between you and the deep sea. What is the connection between you and Coster."

"I couldn't have told you this before. Now that people are dead, there is nothing that can't be said." House poured tea for Liang Xi and Bobby: "Deep Sea was arrested during an invasion of the Hexagon, and he was forced to become a We didn't ask him to do anything specific, he continued to do his deep sea, to continue his activities in Europe, and even we could provide him with some help. In exchange for deep sea to regularly report on all his work. Deep sea is inherently rebellious , was originally employed by Blood Moon for a long time, and after being forced to become an informant, he quit Blood Moon. Not only that, we also found that Deep Sea was engaged in some criminal activities.”

House Road: "Our psychoanalyst thought that Deep Sea was unwilling to be our informant and deliberately played tricks on us. It was only because he and his family were afraid that they would not dare to tear up with us. So I was dispatched to beat Deep Sea. "

Deep Sea has been waiting for decision makers, at least the representatives of decision makers meet with themselves.Shen Hai said that he could not help the Americans indefinitely, so he might as well go to jail.House put forward a specific transaction condition: Coster's evidence of selling prohibited items.

Taking the embargoed products as an example, the United States is reluctant to sell the cake to the Iranians.But Coster broke the agreement and the Iraqis got the cake.Of course, Coster would not be stupid enough to resell cakes directly. You must know that Yiguo is not a good bird, and he will sell him to Americans when he turns his head.Coster used a variety of methods. The first one was imitation. He bought the 5th grade cake from the Americans, and imitated the 3rd grade cake and sold it to the Iraqis.The second method is to entrust, to sell the cake to a third party, and the third party to sell it to the Iraqis.It is the third party's fault that the Americans investigate, and it has nothing to do with Coster.

The third way is to make false accounts. For example, I actually consumed 10 cakes today, I reported 20 cakes, and I sold the extra 10 cakes to Iraqis through black channels.Before selling, I clear the marks on the cake.In this way, Americans know that the Iraqis obtained the cake illegally, but they cannot determine who sold it.The fourth method is cooperation. For example, the Iraqis dispatched personnel to acquire a foreign company qualified to buy cakes. Coster pretended to be stupid and resold the cake to this company when he knew that the owner of the other party was an Iraqi.The fifth method is called meeting a thief. Because of the negligent management of Coster's company, the cake was stolen and robbed.In order to cover up the matter, Coster did not report it until he was found out.

The Americans made such a condition to the deep sea: get evidence that Coster sold cakes to the Iraqis.The most important part is that the Americans believe that the deep sea has a business in the Middle East that produces low-grade cakes, and the Americans ask the deep sea to find this enterprise and associate it with Coster.

After all, the Deep Sea Mission is just a technical team. No matter how good it is, it needs to do some physical work. Therefore, Haus becomes the direct contact of the Deep Sea, providing certain support for the Deep Sea in various aspects such as force, information, and intelligence.

Liang Xi asked about the Deep Sea Laptop, and House was covered in a circle: "Is it particularly important? Is there any evidence video stored in it? As far as we know, if people like them have important videos, photos, documents, It will be hidden in the network deep cloud server." He looked up at the ceiling, his computer level was no better than that of Liang Xi, and Baiyun was the first thing that came to mind when he mentioned the cloud.

House explained that he and the deep sea were in a safe environment.Because he is a well-identified U.S. ca employee, it is impossible to allow Deep Sea to leave evidence of a conversation and meeting with him.He also doesn't care about the computer in the deep sea. In his opinion, the computer is just a gun in the deep sea, a tool. The important thing is the deep sea, the shooter.

Liang Xi asked, "As far as I know, Coster's tentacles haven't reached the UK, so why would I bother you?"

House hesitated for a moment, then explained: "The boss of the Shadow Detective Agency is Coster, and Coster is my boss."

"What?" Liang Xi rarely felt that his brain was not enough: "You are an American employee, and you investigate Coster. At the same time, Coster is also your boss? Is Coster so stupid?"

House said: "No, Coster knew I was an American CA employee, but didn't know I was investigating him. In fact, he became my boss before I became the commissioner investigating Coster."

Liang Xi understood: "It is said that Coster has always wanted to build a little blood moon, and he took a fancy to the shadow detective agency supported by Americans." The mouse asked the cat to be a bodyguard.It's no wonder that House formed a House team to provide support for Ristone during the last Blood Moon cruise invitation.This guy knew that his boss was not Hannah, but he deliberately concealed it to make everyone misunderstand.

"Probably so."

Coster put forward the condition that all the materials entrusted by the Shadow Detective Agency for investigation are required. As long as the Shadow Detective Agency accepts the commission, he will need the process and results of the commission.In return, Coste will inject 5 million euros per year in the form of entrustment, and he will not participate in the dividends of the Shadow Detective Agency.

The daily work of the Shadow Detective Agency is mainly civil. Because of its good reputation and high fees, it mostly faces high-end people.That's what Coster sees.Americans have no interest in this information, so the two sides reached a consensus on cooperation.House became the Europa Investigator in the Coster case, given that House had a legitimate capacity to contact and associate with Coster.

Liang Xi asked, "Has the investigation yielded anything?"

House smiled and said, "Liang Xi, the friend's line has bottomed out." If he continued to question the subtext, he would not only not say it, but would also hurt everyone's feelings.

House's answer could not explain why Sera wanted to meet Liang Xi privately.Liang Xi thought that there was only one reason for Sierra to meet with him: it had something to do with John.Selazar led out House from the deep sea, and House was associated with Coster.It's very likely that House and Coster have someone with John's message.

Liang Xi thought for a long time and asked, "House, does Coster have some information about us that you are not interested in?"

House asked back, "Are we referring to the Orphan Society?"

Old fox, I wanted to take a word with me!Liang Xi pretended to be indifferent: "The Lonely Elders Association, me, Bobby and the like."

House recalled for a long time: "It seems that there is nothing else."

Liang Xi pressed: "Is there any connection between Coster and Petain?"

"There are so many things you want to know. Coster and Beidang are normal friends, and even don't say friends. They are all people in the upper society. They have their connections. Although they have no benefits, they know each other." House laughed: "I Know what you want. I have a clue that has not been proven here. I give you a suggestion: Go to Lisone. "

"Riston?"

"Riston's father had a team of ten to 15 people. They called themselves the Ares Squad, but they were actually a mercenary group. They had fought for Israel and had been employed by several private military contracting companies for a short period of time. Rystone was one of their leaders. , he successfully transformed the mercenary group into urban mercenaries, and established the Ares Security Company in the Netherlands. Ares provides short-term protection services for the rich, and its business is characterized by a certain local advantage in the Middle East. It once assisted the United States in rescuing hostages, Participate in escorting the negotiating team and other work."

House Road: "It will definitely attract attention if it is so good. Our analyst's job is to put together fragmented information. We have so many unrelated pieces of information. The first piece of news is that the two gods of war were on the 10th of a certain year and a certain month. No. 12 to travel to London. The second message, the three God of War arrived in London at noon on the 12th. The third message, Ristone arrived in London at 13:14 p.m. on the [-]th. The fourth message, Ristone and five members of the God of War were on board Flight left London at [-]am on the [-]th and returned to the Netherlands. Last message: John was killed on the morning of the [-]th."

House explained: "The reason why John's murder was brought to our attention is not because of John, but because we believe that the team that attacked John is quite professional and cooperative. Go like the wind. Killing, destroying evidence, retreating and other links are skillful and professional."

House said: "But we didn't investigate and understand further, we don't know what happened, and we can't even be sure whether it is related to God of War."

House's lines: Ares entered the UK legally and left the UK legally after conducting an investigation.Then entered Britain through illegal channels, attacked John, and quickly retreated.This style is very consistent with the behavior of battlefield tactical teams.

House added: "The Ristone man is in Brighton right now, and he brought people with him to covertly provide short-term security for Coster. From what we understand, Coster was in Brighton for the Blood Moon meeting, and he has admitted that he has control of the lower elders. Yes. This resulted in a huge disagreement in the first meeting and was forced to adjourn. There will be a second Blood Moon meeting tomorrow at Blood Moon Castle."
