There is a restaurant and a caf¨¦ in Bourning Street. There is a 50cm-wide staircase between the restaurant and the coffee shop. Going up the stairs is the Rose Detective Agency. The area of ??the detective agency is not small. The upper floor of the coffee shop is the office, with old-fashioned single sofas, wall clocks, bookshelves, fireplaces, rocking chairs, and an antique look. The upper floor of the restaurant is the reception area, with modern sofas, coffee tables, toilets, and a lounge chair lounge of about ten square meters.
Assuming that he could not find a job within a month, Liang Xi decided to move to a detective agency, and by the way, lowered his expected salary to 2,000 pounds. It is impossible to sell the detective agency, at least when John is alive, Liang Xi will not consider selling the detective agency.
? To be honest, Liang Xi likes the detective agency very much. He especially likes sitting in the rocking chair by the fireplace, drinking a cup of hot tea and holding a book by the firelight. But this kind of life will not only make people addicted, but also make people degenerate, making Liang Xi an otaku. Without making any money, Liang Xi is not yet qualified to be an otaku.
Another week passed, not only did there not be any recruitment calls, but the detective agency also had no business. Liang Xi, who was sitting and eating, even walked 10 kilometers to John's house for lunch in order to exercise, and then walked 10 kilometers back to the detective agency to continue delivering resumes. This time he changed his strategy: vote for a part-time job. Sprinkle resumes for ¡ê10-an-hour jobs.
After handing out the leaflets, bah! After handing out the resume, there was a long-lost knock on the door at the stairway.
Liang Xi opened the door, and the person who came was a man in his fifties. The man saw Liang Xi take off his hat, and Liang Xi noticed that he had a Bluetooth headset hanging on his left ear. "Is John there?" the man asked.
If you are a regular customer and friend of John, you should know that John didn't come to the detective agency very much a few years ago, and you can only contact John by phone if you need it. Obviously this man was not a regular customer, so Liang Xi invited him in and replied, "John has retired, can I help?"
The man looked at Liang Xi with some doubts. He was 8 meters tall, with a childish face and sophisticated eyes, and he couldn't see how capable Liang Xi was. But the man didn't think about it for a long time, and said, "Of course."
"Inside, please." Liang Xi ushered the guests into the living room to sit down.
The guests didn't talk nonsense. After being seated and introducing each other, the guest who called himself Richard said, "I'm looking for something."
Liang Xi put the mineral water in front of the guests and asked, "What is it?"
Richard explained the situation. He is a lawyer for a company called Screw Company. The screw company has a factory building in the industrial area of ??London, which mainly produces large screws on a daily basis. There is a 17-story apartment building not far from the factory building, which is the dormitory for the workers. A golf club took a fancy to the screw company's land and bought it.
? According to the plan, Screw Company will relocate its workshop and company to the Manchester industrial area, and the apartment building will be demolished by blasting in three days. Richard wants to ask Liang Xi to find something in the apartment building.
Richard himself didn't know what it looked like, and said: "A storage device, it may be a mobile phone card, it may be a flash memory, it may be a mobile hard disk, or it may be a discarded computer. Just connect the thing to the right one. On the storage, there will be an interface for entering the password, and there is a small sailboat on the interface."
Liang Xi thought that Richard was not telling the truth, and Liang Xi said sincerely: "Richard, in a 17-story apartment with a lot of household garbage left, it is almost impossible to find something that you can't describe clearly. .You should tell me more information."
Richard thought for a while, and said: "Well, it is a storage device that stores the financial information of the screw company. Selling the land in London and buying the land in Manchester, the company has carried out a legal tax avoidance behavior. This behavior is misunderstood as tax evasion."
The person who misunderstood was a deputy financial director named Cai Wu, female, 33 years old, living on the 15th floor of the apartment building. Cai Wu did not call the police after getting the evidence, but blackmailed the screw company. The screw company sent someone to negotiate with Cai Wu. Cai Wu told the screw company that the things were in the apartment building, and she could take someone to get the evidence immediately after paying the money. And make sure no one else knows about it.
The two parties discussed the price issue. Because the expected amount differed by a single digit, Cai Wu gave the screw company three days to think it over before contacting her. She didn't want to waste time. Unexpectedly, Cai Wu was killed in a car accident on the way back to the apartment. The screw company dispatched personnel and spent three days without finding anything. Three days later, the employees had all moved out of the apartment building, and the demolition company took over the apartment building. After a week of measurements and calculations, the demolition company will install explosives and demolish the apartment building in three days.
Therefore, the screw company asked a lawyer to seek professional assistance. Richard asked John to handle the case more than ten years ago, so he came to him today.
Richard said: "We can provide detailed information on the previous occupants of the apartment building, including the residence of Cai Wu's friends in the company.?. But we didn't ask the demolition company for permission, and if you go into an apartment building looking for things and get caught, the screw company will never admit it. From a lawyer's professional point of view, I can tell you that it is not a big problem. Because the management authority of the apartment building you invaded is a demolition company, if you file a case for investigation of your illegal intrusion, the apartment building cannot be demolished on time. "
hehe! Are you kidding me? You can't find the thing that threatens your company. Not only are you not secretly happy, but you also mobilize the people in the company to look for it. I'm afraid not enough people know about it? Now I'm still looking for detectives, trying my best to find it out.
Liang Xiwei said: "I'm a detective, and I don't do anything that breaks the law."
Without saying a word, Richard unzipped his briefcase and put a stack of 50-pound banknotes on the coffee table: "Five thousand pounds as an advance payment. If you can find what we need, you can get another 10,000 pounds. "
us? Liang Xi is very good at capturing details. From what Richard said about us, Liang Xi knows that Richard is not alone. So Richard and his gang must have searched the apartment somehow. Because the apartment building is about to be demolished, they are now desperately going to the doctor. This money can be taken, but it is impossible to take it. The key is how to operate it. If you think that after taking the 5,000 advance payment, you can lie down and sleep, you are very wrong.
Liang Xi thought for a while: "I don't need to pay in advance. After I find something, I want 50,000 pounds."
Liang Xi sat on the ground and raised the price, and waited for the other party to pay back the money. Unexpectedly, Richard agreed immediately: "Deal."
Richard took out a business card with only a phone number and a website: "The information is in this website, and the download password is six six. Call this phone number after you find something. By the way: You are the only one who knows."
Liang Xi half-jokingly said: "You didn't set a trap in the apartment building and plan to dig out the kidneys, did you?"
Richard was taken aback: "Ah? What?"
Liang Xi smiled and said: "It's okay, it's a detective's joke. ?
