I came back with my luggage.The aroma of coffee and fried ham greeted me when I opened the door. Daphne had already set the table.The blankets were folded in the pantry, the bathroom was steamy but shiny clean, and she was cracking eggs into a frying pan to fry. Fry on one side, both sides, or scrambled eggs?she asked. How do you like to eat?I asked. I don't care, you are the parent here. Soft scrambled eggs.I told her. Then soft scrambled eggs.she says. A few minutes later, she gave me a pot of soft scrambled eggs, fried ham that was not greasy, and a pot of fragrant coffee. She watched me eat with great interest, how about it, Tang Nuo?

So far so good. A good start, she said: I hope it goes according to your wishes.What should I do next? you stay here.I said: You cook your own lunch.If anyone asks you who you are, just say you are Mrs. Lai.There is enough in the refrigerator for lunch here.Canned food can be used casually.In the evening I will bring back fresh meat.Stay here and don't go out.The TV was fine with no issues.Never go out.And definitely don't chat with your neighbors. But, Tang Nuo, what if they were looking for me, in the name of Mrs. Lai? I said: Officer Mi will not make a big fuss because I protect witnesses in private.But it would be a heinous crime to steal the suspect away from him.

Tang Nuo.What are you going to do with that suitcase of banknotes? We'll just leave it here.I said. is it safe? Of course, not too safe.It's not safe there. can we go to a bank so what?I asked: Let the bank tell them in the future that we rented a safe and put this thing in it?There's only one good place in the world for this black money to be safe, and that's with the police.But at present, as long as it is handed over to the police, it will immediately add fuel to the fire.You take care of yourself, I'll be back to see you soon. I walked out of the apartment, and she who stayed behind was a little at a loss and was afraid.

Scientific progress has helped private detectives a lot in investigating cases.Car tracker is an example. We put a small beetle-sized thing on the car to be tracked. With the signal from the radio, it is converted into sound, and the tracked car can follow the tracked car far away.Of course, our company does its part, and there are such things. There is also a new thing called a dialing detector, which is like a small radio. It is aimed at the person who is about to make a call. Within a certain distance, the number he dials can be displayed on the detector. I went back to my apartment and checked the dial tester, it was working fine.I put it in a suitcase and carry it with me.

I came to Monador Building and went directly to Room 1624. The same woman sat behind a desk, this time with quite a few people waiting. You posted an ad and I said: about getting a witness Oh, that's right.But sorry that witness has been found Hi you are not also a yes you have been to you That's right.I said: I talked to Mr. He, I want to see him again. She shook her head and said: I'm afraid it's impossible.It is impossible for Mr. He to see you. Can you send me a letter to him? I'm afraid I won't see Mr. He either, at least not in a short time.But I can try to send him a letter.

I said: When you contact him, tell him that perjury is a crime. I think it goes without saying that he must know. You tell him again that the Cadillac was the culprit in the car accident on April 15th, and it was the car accident caused by it running a red light.The case was settled before he ran the ad.Tell him, I asked him what he was going to do? She looked at me with disbelief, wide-eyed, and asked: reconciled before the ad? good. how do you know? I went to check it! How to find out. Visit the two parties involved in the car accident. Ridiculous!she says. I didn't say anything, just stood there and let her analyze it by herself.

But what does this have to do with me?she asked. Mr. He is your client.You ask him, he may give you a reasonable answer.I said. Then what? Then you can tell me his explanation. Why do you think I should tell you about this? certainly.I came to apply, I spent time, and time is money. It turns out that it's all about money. Absolutely not.I said: I am not here for money.I didn't come here today to ask for money.I want a reasonable explanation. If I can't get the result today, I will come tomorrow until I get the result.This method cannot be explained, I will find another method, I will not rest.This is a matter of principle.

This thing is kind of weird, isn't it?She said, giving me a smile that she was on my side.I will try my best to contact Mr. He.However, he came to rent an office for a very short period of time, and I am really not sure You can ask him what's behind the scenes, right?I said: I hope there is no criminal case secretly going on behind the scenes. criminal? Isn't it a crime to pay someone to give false testimony? I understand. I want to report this kind of thing.But I also don't want to report and find out that this matter is all legal and not as problematic as I imagined. Yes, she said sourly: for a respectable young man like you, it must be very embarrassing to report the wrong person.It will be very bad for you.

Well, I said: you know where I stand.I hope to be fair.I also must have an explanation. In my opinion, just because you applied for an advertisement, you invested a little too much time. I smiled at her and said: That's right.I invest too much time.I haven't lodged a complaint with the Fair Trading Tribunal yet. I see.She replied suspiciously: Mr. Lai, I have news, how can I contact you? I said: It seems that it is the most ideal for me to contact you, I am often in and out But you must have an address, right? Of course I have an address, I said: but I go out too much.It is easy for me to find you, but difficult for you to find me.

I smiled at her and walked out of her office. As soon as the office door closed behind me, I moved a few steps and figured I was standing directly in front of her desk, opened my suitcase, and turned on the dialer. For a short period of time, there was no response inside; then, suddenly, subtitles appeared on the instrument, and the number was 676︱2211. I write down the number, put the detector back in the suitcase, and head for the elevator. I called my office and found Bu Aiqian. Elsie, I said: You have to do me a job.Get a taxi and come to Monador Building immediately.Bring your notepad.I am here waiting for you.It may take you two to three hours here.If you happen to have shoes you can use for walking in the office, change them.I want you to do a stalking job for me.

She said: Tang Nuo, you know that Baisha doesn't like to do this.Back office is back office, she doesn't like me going out This is an emergency.I told her I couldn't find the other person right now.Just come as soon as you can. I'll just follow your orders, I'll be right there, Tang Nuo.she agreed. I hung up the phone and went to the entrance of the building until I waited until Elsie arrived. I paid the taxi fare for her, took her into the building, and sat with her at the coffee table in the small restaurant in the lobby of the building. Listen carefully to this matter, I told her: it may not be easy to do.You sit here and don't take your eyes off the elevator.During lunch time at noon, there will be a lot of people getting in and out of the elevator.But there are not many elevators here, so you won't be unable to take care of them. The woman I want you to see is about thirty-two years old; about five feet four inches tall; about a hundred and twenty pounds.There are many people like this, so you must look at her clothes. She is wearing a dark blue work suit with red and black stripes on the collar and cuffs.There is also a cloth flower on the left side near the neckline, which is red. When this woman comes out, I want you to follow her.I want to know where she went, if she talked to someone, you have to find a way to find out who that person is.It's a bit difficult, but once you see someone she has an appointment to discuss things with, you can follow that person and maybe he or she will go back to driving his or her own car.You copy down the car number. For the person she was talking to, I want you to memorize all the traits.What to wear, what color hair, everything you can describe. You will need some money to spend.Here are fifty-five yuan zero votes.You may still have to use a taxi to track it down. You are sitting here, ordering a cup of coffee, ordering a piece of cake, trying to delay as long as you can.In case someone pays attention, you go out and hail two taxis, and tell them to stop one at the door and the other on the opposite road.Tell them to use the waiting list.You can sit in any one of the two cars first and wait. Why two taxis waiting, one no.I said: The other party came out from the lobby of the building.If she goes the other way, your taxi won't be able to turn around.It takes at least three or four blocks around here to turn around.Then it is possible to chase people away.Therefore, it is safe to have cars in both directions. When will I report back to you? I don't know, I saw the woman go out to meet someone first, and then went back to the office to wait.In the afternoon, I will find time to contact you. And one more thing.In case the woman enters the phone booth to make a call, you try to get behind her and pretend to wait for her to call, and try to see what number she is dialing from over her shoulder. Ai Qian, I need this information very much, but don't be too eager to startle the snake. I also know that it is too difficult for you to entrust this kind of work to you.In case she slips away, or if things don't go well, don't be cowardly, things can't be perfect in this world. This woman had to keep an office alone, and she couldn't get out before twelve o'clock.But I know she will come out at lunchtime today. Does she come out to eat every day? not necessarily.I said: I believe that maybe some people will borrow her office at noon.Today is a little different, we depend on God for food. Which office is she in, Tang Nuo? One six two four.I said: It is a temporary office and secretarial rental service company.You just do your best.If she doesn't come out at noon, we'll have to think of another way.Maybe have to follow her at night when she gets off work.That's more difficult. Anyway, I'll do my best, Tang Nuo.she says. It's hard for you.I said. I left the building and dialed a number from the phone booth, 6762211. A nice female voice said: Luo Lumeng Sanshi's Office. I said: Sorry, I made the wrong number.
