“The place where deep affection couldn’t reach had long been entered by someone driving a Maybach.”
After realizing he was just a backup option, Xia Tian hardened his heart and stopped believ...
Chapter 481 Private Detective
"Hello, is this Li Miao?"
As soon as Xia Tian opened his mouth, the person on the other end of the phone did not respond immediately.
After more than ten seconds, Xia Tian even suspected that the call was hung up. At this time, a very deep male voice came from the other end:
"I'm Li Miao."
Xia Tian breathed a sigh of relief, and thinking of what Bai Yun had just said, he organized his words and said, "Hello, I have a business that I would like to ask you for help with. Is it convenient for you recently?"
"You got my contact information from Miss Bai Yun, right?"
"Has Bai Yun told you?"
Xia Tian was very surprised.
Because he had just been out of Bai Yun's law firm for less than ten minutes, Li Miao knew that he got the contact information from Bai Yun.
All it means is that after he left, Bai Yun called Li Miao immediately.
However, Li Miao's words surprised Xia Tian: "No, I won't easily give my phone number to outsiders. The phone number I give out will only correspond to one contact.
The person corresponding to this mobile phone number is Bai Yun. ”
“So professional!”
Xia Tian sighed subconsciously.
This feels a bit like something out of a movie.
Then, Xia Tian continued, "It's like this. I want you to follow two people. I need to know the places they often go every day, that is, their general itinerary."
"Sure, but even though this doesn't involve any technical skills, it still needs to be charged according to normal procedures. If you are sure you want to cooperate with me, you need to pay a down payment of 50,000 yuan first, and I will negotiate the rest after I get the money."
"No problem, give me an account number and I'll transfer the money to you now."
Xia Tian did not suspect that Li Miao would run away with his money.
Of course, he believed in the channels provided by Bai Yun.
However, Li Miao refused Xia Tian's request for his account number: "No, I only accept cash payments."
"Uh...but how can I give you cash if we don't meet?"
"It's very simple. Just tell me which city you are in, and I'll give you an address later. Just leave the money there, and I'll send someone to pick it up later."
Xia Tian wanted to say something else, but realized that if he asked too many questions, it might arouse the other party's vigilance.
Because from the fact that Li Miao's phone number only corresponds to one contact and he only accepts cash transactions, it can be seen that he is a person who attaches great importance to his privacy.
Even the name "Li Miao" may not be his real name.
Thinking of this, Xia Tian replied: "Okay, I'm in Bei'an, Qin Province."
"Okay, after I hang up, I'll send you the location within five minutes. You need to put the cash in the location I specify within five hours. I'll contact you again after I confirm I have the cash."
"OK."
After Xia Tian finished speaking, Li Miao ended the call.
Xia Tian did not delay and went to the nearest bank to withdraw money.
When he arrived at the bank door, he had already received the text message from Li Miao.
[Locker No. 042 of CR Vanguard on Laodong Road, Lianhu District. If Locker No. 042 is occupied, please put it in Locker No. 052. Please give the ticket of the locker to the taxi driver with the last digit 989 at the entrance of the supermarket. 】
Xia Tian looked at the text message and his eyes twitched: "Tsk, it's like handing over secret information to the underground party. How cautious."
Afterwards, he withdrew 50,000 yuan in cash from the bank and immediately drove to the location Li Miao mentioned.
Two hours later.
Xia Tian followed Li Miao's instructions, put the 50,000 yuan in the locker and left.
After finishing all this, I went back to school in the summer. When I parked the car, I received another text message from Li Miao.
[The advance payment has been received. I will go to Bei'an within three days and we will discuss the price after I arrive. 】
After seeing this message, Xia Tian did not reply.
Waiting for private detective Li Miao to come to Bei'an.
.......
Early the next morning.
Because everyone in dormitory 214 had no classes, everyone was sleeping soundly in the dormitory.
At half past nine, Xia Tian was awakened by the ringing of the cell phone placed under her pillow.
He answered the phone in a daze: "Hello..."
"Hello Mr. Xia, I'm already in Bei'an. If you are free sometime, we need to meet. Please give me the information about the person you need me to do business with."
"Huh? Detective Lee?!"
I suddenly lost all desire to sleep in the summer.
Yesterday Li Miao said in a text message that he would arrive in Bei'an within three days.
Unexpectedly, Li Miao arrived after just one night!
"No problem, I'm free now, let's have lunch together...Do you have any dietary restrictions?"
"Let's not have dinner together. We can go to the bath center and find a private room to talk in detail."
Xia Tian frowned slightly, and finally agreed: "Okay, I'll send you the location later."
After ending the call, Xia Tian found a fairly high-end bath center and sent the location to Li Miao.
After getting up, washing, and rushing over there.
Xia Tian knew why Li Miao had to choose the bath center. After all, he was a big boss of a listed company in his previous life.
Many of the more private communications usually take place privately in bath centers.
Because here both parties are only wearing simple shorts and there is water all around, there is no possibility of being filmed or monitored.
The privacy of conversations can be ensured to a large extent.
After Xia Tian booked an entire private room, Li Miao soon arrived.
Li Miao's appearance was completely different from what Xia Tian had imagined.
He thought Li Miao would be a very special-looking person, but after meeting him in person, he found that Li Miao looked very ordinary.
He is about 1.7 meters tall, has a flat head, and his looks are not outstanding. He is the kind of person that if you see him/her on the street, you will not remember what he/she looks like within a few minutes.
"Hello, Detective Lee."
"Hello Mr. Xia."
Hearing Li Miao's words, Xia Tian was slightly startled, and his eyes narrowed instantly:
"I remember... I don't think I mentioned my name to you, right? Besides, we traded in cash, so how do you know my name?"
"Don't be nervous. Before any collaboration, I will first investigate the background of the person I'm collaborating with. This is probably my professional habit.
I have to make sure that my partners won't cause me any extra trouble. After all, this profession is not officially recognized. It's better to be safe than sorry. Please understand.
I have my own channels to obtain your information. Now that I can come here, I must have made sure that your background will not cause any trouble to me. ”
Xia Tian was silent for a moment, and finally nodded.
Li Miao laughed and sat down next to Xia Tian very naturally:
"Mr. Xia, I was very surprised when I checked your personal information. You are only 19 years old this year, and you have already created a milk tea brand like Chayu. I have to say that your ability is really outstanding."
"Detective Li, I'm surprised to see you too. I thought people in your profession would be like in the movies, well-mannered and wearing custom glasses."
Li Miao waved his hand nonchalantly and said jokingly, "Of course not. If our industry were like those in Hollywood blockbusters, how would we be able to carry out our work?
When tracking someone, if their appearance easily leaves an impression on outsiders, tracking and investigation work will be difficult to carry out. ”
"That's true..."
Xia Tian nodded slightly, and seeing that Li Miao had started talking, he took out the information he had prepared in advance and handed it to Li Miao.
