Chapter 42: Revenge (Part 3)
Liang Xi gently moved the glass door and pushed it open a crack.
Bobby asked, "Any questions?"
Liang Xi replied: “Yes.”
Bobby immediately became nervous: "Do we need to call the police?"
No, it was so quiet. If someone was in the room, they should have been able to hear Bobby's voice on the phone. Logically, the person should have shown up by now, either running away, shooting me, or beating me up. Why was it so quiet? Did I forget to lock the door?
Liang Xi: "No, I'm not sure." He searched the wall, but why was there no light switch?
"Not sure?" Bobby asked.
Liang Xi said: "If someone sneaks in, it will definitely be disadvantageous to me, so the other party should have many opportunities. From the scene, it seems that someone has invaded, but from a logical point of view, the invasion does not make sense. Unless he plans to wait until I fall asleep before taking action. I said so, but I didn't notice any movement..."
Bobby waited for a while, but didn't hear Liang Xi finish his words, so he asked, "What?"
Liang Xi picked up his middle finger from the ground. There was a grain of sand on it. His shoes were taken off at the entrance. Liang Xi turned on the hands-free and said, "It seems that I misunderstood. Let's talk about your girl." While guarding against possible lurkers, he walked to the open kitchen next to the living room.
Bobby: "My girls, oh... not many of them I remember naming? You know, I've never lacked girls around me since middle school."
Liang Xi laughed: "Haha, you are bragging." Using the sound as a cover, he turned on the gas, then walked back to the hall and went to the bathroom. He put the phone on the sink, and then Liang Xi took out a towel and wet it to cover his ears and nose.
When Bobby started to count his 21st or 20th girlfriend, Liang Xi had already switched his phone mode to photo mode. He leaned against the TV wall, holding his phone in one hand and pointing it at the hall, while with the other hand he pulled open his towel and exposed his mouth: "Wow, this girl is so shameless to stick with you?"
Bobby sighed, "I'm also troubled. Because of this, I have become the public enemy of many people. I have to bring bodyguards to and from school. Unfortunately, one of them is a female bodyguard..."
Liang Xi laughed: "Haha." The smell was so strong, why was there no movement? Could it be that he really made a mistake?
Liang Xi didn't know that the two assassins were holding their breath, waiting to see who could not hold their breath and jump out first to attract Liang Xi's attention. When Liang Xi was looking for them, they did not run far, fighting guerrilla warfare with Liang Xi along a large sofa. Not only did they have to listen to Liang Xi's voice, but they also had to guard against the assassin not far away from them who might stab them.
Liang Xi made a big move: "I want to smoke a cigarette, how about you? Want one?"
The two assassins looked at each other and nodded. Then Liang Xi saw two black shadows coming out from behind the sofa and splitting into two groups. One of them held up a floor lamp, and the other held up a houseplant.
"Wait." Liang Xi called out to stop. The two shadows looked at Liang Xi together. Liang Xi took off the towel covering his mouth and nose and said very gently, "Two brothers, can you please leave through the proper door? ... No, no, no, I can't afford it! Fuck you."
As Liang Xi collapsed, two windows of glass were smashed and a black shadow jumped out of the window.
Liang Xi chased to the window, but there was no one there. Looking at the broken window, Liang Xi couldn't help but yelled in a mixture of English and Chinese: "Fuck you, don't let me know who you are. Roar...!" It was so infuriating.
Liang Xi stood by the window for a long time before turning off the gas. Liang Xi still couldn't think of a way to crack the real-name reservation of the villa. This account must be attributed to him. He ran away at night, and the court summons would find him sooner or later. It's fine if you can't use your real name when doing bad things, but how can you be blamed for using your real name when you didn't provoke anyone?
Call the police? That's one way. Judging from Liang Xi's knowledge, calling the police can only effectively extend his compensation period. Using plastic wrap will definitely not work. Magic can turn two pieces of glass, but first you need the glass and installation costs. Alas... this is fate. What kind of thinking and logic do these two idiots have? With their skills, they can definitely crush me. They are wearing masks and are not afraid of being seen by me, so why do they smash the glass? Could it be that they hired someone to frame me with high interest rates?
I just earned a little living expenses by playing gunfire with the fans. Is it easy? What kind of hatred or grudge can't you take it out on yourself? Do you have to smash the glass? I'm so angry! The more I think about it, the angrier I get!
There is definitely insurance, but you have to prove that you didn't smash it yourself. The police can't invest a lot of manpower and material resources in this case. Not to mention whether the police will do DNA and fingerprints. This is a short-term rental villa, and it is normal to have fingerprints and DNA of hundreds of people. The final outcome must be that the insurance company will first compensate the villa village for the loss, and then take itself to court for compensation.
…
The two pieces of glass were not expensive. At least they didn't charge by carat, which was very conscientious. They also waived compensation for the floor lamp and potted plants . In the end, they just paid 800 pounds. Why was it so expensive? Because there were carvings on the broken glass, gold wire carvings, which looked particularly rich.
This matter cannot be let go. Lightning will not strike the same place, so the person who smashed the glass is most likely related to the criminals in Villa No. 11. It is very likely that he was a lookout and sneaked into the villa he rented to avoid the police search. Lightning may actually strike the same place, but now I can't blame others, and I'm free anyway. Money is really not important, I'm very upset. I have already begged them in such a gentle tone to let go of the glass, but they did such a thing.
The villa village manager felt a little guilty about the negotiation process for compensation for the glass, and chatted with Liang Xi for a while. Liang Xi roughly knew the progress of the follow-up investigation of Villa No. 11, and even knew that the criminal was a serving French police officer.
There are two types of accommodation for French people to commit crimes in London: one is a hotel and the other is a short-term rental holiday villa. Considering the gang nature of the other party, it is not convenient to stay in a hotel. In addition, there are many people in the hotel and there are surveillance cameras in the lobby. The mobility of the roving criminal gangs living in the hotel is greatly affected. The best way is to rent a holiday villa for a few days in the name of sightseeing.
Roving crime requires transportation, and cars are a must. For gang crimes, the scouts should arrive in London first, rent a villa, rent a car, notify their accomplices, and then the accomplices arrive in London from France. Therefore, short-term rental holiday villas and car rental companies are two key points. It would be very convenient if they have both.
Liang Xi opened the electronic map and searched for short-term rental villas and car rental companies. He found a place. There were short-term rental villas, car rental companies, and the most amazing thing was that there was also a water transportation rental company. This villa was located in the southwest of London and northeast of the Naval Academy. It was called Sack Tourist Vacation Villa.
The Thames River itself is a tourist attraction. You can take a boat tour of London. Within a 20-minute drive are many attractions such as the Royal Stables, the Art Society, the University of London, the National Gallery, and the Cathedral.
