Chapter 519 Traceability

Liang Xi had a good night's rest, called Karin to report her safety, and called Bobby, who invited him to dinner. Liang Xi explained that he was still busy for a few days and would contact Bobby when he was free.

The next morning, Liang Xi went to work at the detective agency that had been dusty for a long time. Fiona and a blade agent came to the door at the agreed nine o'clock and provided Liang Xi with all the information collected in the Pétain case.Fiona and the detectives temporarily stay in the detective agency to assist Liang Xi in his work.These materials are all shady, and were secretly obtained by mi6 agents, so there are no complete and detailed technical parameters of the evidence.If Liang Xi has any questions, Fiona can help contact mi6 agents to answer Liang Xi's questions.

Liang Xi once spent hundreds of thousands to ask House to investigate Pétain. House told Liang Xi that because Pétain's boyfriend Hal was a terrorist, he was sentenced to death for attacking in the United States, so Americans have been paying attention to Pétain.House provided a lot of information that the British side did not have, such as Hal being the illegitimate son of the prince and the founder of the Holy Banner Society.

Liang Xi used his mobile phone to find terrorist attack news from the Internet, downloaded several photos of Hal, and handed the mobile phone to Fiona: "Ask them if they saw anything related to this person during the search, and most importantly, did they see anything related to this person?" Photo." Pétain was a celibate, but not a natural celibate.Over the years, her love for Hal has never changed, and she has always been unwilling to accept others.Be it soul or body.Logically speaking, Petain must have kept Hal's items, and the most basic thing should be photos.Liang Xi looked at the photos taken by the agents. They found evidence from six real estate properties and yachts that could subjectively prove that Petain was involved in terrorism, but Liang Xi did not find anything related to Hal.Not even a single item directly related to males was seen.

Fiona connected, and the other party was very cooperative.The agents in charge of the search all answered the same: no.They ensured that every corner was searched, looking for possible secret doors with the cooperation of technical means, and took photos of all the items.

Liang Xi asked, "Does Petain have any other businesses?"

"Yes, but it's not her own property, do you understand?" Fiona didn't flirt with Liang Xi today, and worked very seriously: "For example, her grandmother gave her a villa, and she gave it to her cousin's son to live in. Liang Xi, you Believe mi6, their investigation is very strong, they even went undercover to the Pétain family. Here I have a piece of information related to the Pétain family, including the information of each member of the family. The Pétain family is not a devout holy family , they care more about money, and faith is just a tool for them to do business.”

Liang Xi said, "Fiona, ask a very offensive question."

"Yeah." Fiona nodded.

Liang Xi asked: "If you think about it, at Petain's age and her outstanding appearance, how much does she desire for men? Let me ask you this: You must abstain from sex for eight years, and you must reject others for thousands of miles." Besides, can you do it?"

Fiona didn't take the opportunity to play tricks, and said after thinking seriously: "Unless my husband becomes a vegetable and I love him very, very much, it makes me feel that it is a very sinful thing to have physical contact with other people. Otherwise, I can't think of it." There is no reason to suppress your instincts."

Liang Xi nodded and concluded, "You haven't found Petain's lair."

"This is unlikely." Fiona said: "We found a lot of information about Pétain's terrorism on the yacht. In addition, I checked the surveillance. A month before the London attack, Pétain often went to the yacht. Even in When there is no terrorist attack, Petain will also go to the yacht. According to the investigation and understanding of the special agent, family relatives said that Petain likes to spend the night alone on the yacht. The Petain family is a big family in Indonesia. Petain has a yacht that belongs to her since she was a child. She likes to spend the night on her own yacht. According to her grandmother, her father was imprisoned for four years for breaking the law in the family business, and her stepmother often beat and scolded her, so she hid in the yacht her father gave her, hug Sleeping with the family photos taken with his mother. Later, my grandmother accidentally learned that her stepmother had abused Petain, so she had her stepmother thrown into the sea, and hired a psychiatrist for Petain. Although Petain was willing to go home and sleep, he often went to the yacht for the night , the situation did not improve much until my father was released from prison."

Fiona said: "We are sure that the yacht is Petain's old den. Since there is no picture of this person on the yacht, then there is no picture."

Liang Xi asked: "Why are you so confident? You should support my doubts."

Fiona asked back: "Why should I support you?"

Liang Xi said: "It's usually like this, you are so strange today."

Fiona sighed: "Do you think I'm normal if I kill you?"

"Haha!" Liang Xi smiled dryly, and returned to the subject, saying: "Pétain's yacht is called Lilac."

Fiona looked at her computer: "That's right, it's named after a famous Indonesian spice. The ship was severely burned, and someone apparently used a combustion accelerant to set it on fire. If there is no trick, why would someone burn the Lilac?"

Liang Xi asked, "How many other yachts were burned together?"

Fiona asked, "Why do you ask that?"

Liang Xi said: "Yachts dock at the marina. Although Paris is not close to the sea, it has the Seine River. It is the same as the Thames River. Paris is about 370 kilometers away from the English Channel at the mouth of the river. I have never been to Paris, but I believe Paris has Many marinas like London are used to dock yachts. Lilac must be moored with other ships. If the target of arson is Lilac, in terms of the location of the yacht, other affected yachts will not be completely burned unless other yachts It was also doused with fuel."

Liang Xi said: "The Lilac belongs to Petain, and Petain often goes to the marina. This does not mean that Petain often goes to the Lilac. Look at the photos taken by the agents. Did you find it? The yacht is not big, and the cabin is even smaller. There are basic office equipment, tables and chairs, beds, bookshelves, a small safe with a satellite phone, religious books and prayer props. This is an office, not a living area."

Fiona answered Liang Xi’s question after searching the Internet: “Four yachts were overfired, the worst of which was the Clove and the Forget-Me-Not. The interiors of the two yachts were almost completely burned and sank at the pier. The cabins of the other two yachts Not affected by the fire. Check the forget-me-not?"

Liang Xi nodded, what a pity!But even after obtaining the comprehensive investigation information, he would not pay attention to the forget-me-not.After all, there are many industries related to Petain, and the Forget-Me-Not is just a neighbor of the Lilac.

The Forget-me-not was Liang Xi's conjecture, and now Liang Xi wanted to prove that his conjecture was correct.The first step is to dig out the identity of the owner of the Forget-Me-Not.

It was already lunch time at this time, Liang Xi and the detective had finished eating takeaway, and Fiona also got the information.The Forget-me-not belonged to a nanny who worked for Pétain's family when he was around 25 or 26 years old. The nanny died in an accident the year before last.After the fire, the French police contacted the nanny's son in the Philippines, who went to France and got a lot of money from the insurance company.

"Although it's not necessary, let the agent talk to my son." Liang Xi said, "I think the Forget-Me-Not is a yacht purchased by Petain as a nanny. To check the nanny's situation, we need to know two questions, why? With the status of nanny, why buy a yacht."

Fiona replied: "Logically, neither of these issues seems to be an issue."

Liang Xi replied: "You should believe me as before, instead of contradicting me. Let's first look at the names of the two yachts, Lilac. The largest producer of cloves is Indonesia. Petain's family is in the spice business, so it is called Lilac. , No problem. Forget-me-not represents a definition of love. Compared with Warrior and Poseidon, Forget-me-not represents a kind of spiritual concern. Pétain's lover was arrested nine years ago, and Pétain purchased it six years ago Forget-me-not."

Liang Xi said: "First ask, how did Petain miss his lover before? Of course it was on the Lilac. Why did he move to the Forget-me-not? Isn't the Lilac more meaningful? For emotional people, a name, a piece of hair, or even A drop of water represents spiritual significance. Only such a sensitive person can guard his lover for nine years. Therefore, I think the Forget Me Not is not a random yacht."

Fiona said: "I have information on the nanny. She worked in the Peidan family for about a year. She left the Beidan family at the age of 60 and returned to the Philippines."

Liang Xi let out a sigh, stood up and thought for a while: "Who would hire a 59-year-old Filipino maid? If it is an Indonesian, it is understandable to say that it helps compatriots, but the nanny is a Filipino. What is the life trajectory of the nanny in Europe?" ?”

Fiona said helplessly: "Brother, I'm a hacker. I have to hack into other people's computer systems to get the information. First, I have to hack into the French customs to find out which country the nanny came to France from. But the damn EU countries will not leave Customs records. Then I can only check the labor service and tax declaration records. If I don’t know which country the babysitter is from, I have to check one by one. The agencies in charge of each country are different, and the language of each country is different. It is not an input One click on the babysitter's name and the results are available. I need time."

Liang Xi said, "Come on!"

Fiona said, "Why are you wasting time on small problems that have little chance?"

Liang Xi asked back: "Are you okay? You seem very irritable."

Fiona shook her head: "I'm sorry, I don't feel well during my menstrual period. Since I'm here to cooperate with your investigation, I should trust you unconditionally."

Liang Xina boiled hot water casually, nodded: "Well, when I am finally proven wrong, you can despise me as much as you want. You should have believed me before."

Fiona: "Okay, you must remind me when you make a mistake. When will Karin come back after studying in the United States?"

Liang Xi said, "The day after tomorrow!"

Fiona smiled evilly, and Liang Xi immediately said, "Stop, you still continue to be irritable."

Fiona rolled her eyes and said in surprise, "I found it."

"So fast?"

Fiona said: "London, the nanny used to work in London." The first search result is the correct answer.

Fiona said: "Melissa, at the age of 25, got a work visa and came to Manchester, England, and worked as a helper in a baron's home. At the age of 27, she changed her work visa, and the material certificate issued by XX location in London. A few months later, Melissa's The husband also came to this family from the Philippines to work as a gardener through the materials provided by the family. Melissa's husband died in an accident when he returned to the Philippines to visit relatives 10 years later. Melissa stayed in this family and worked at the age of 60. "

"Wait, Melissa and her husband are working in London, but her son lives in the Philippines?" Liang Xi asked, "How old is her son?"

"I'm 36 years old this year." That's what the insurance company said.

"Melissa would be 67 years old this year if she didn't die. Melissa gave birth to this child at the age of 31." Liang Xi asked, "Can I find the record of Melissa's birth in London?"

Fiona did not ask the reason as before, and quickly answered Liang Xi: "Melissa gave birth to a baby boy at the XX Hospital at the age of 31?" Britain is different from the United States. If neither parent has a green card, a baby born in the UK cannot Get a UK account.

Liang Xi felt that there was still a problem, and asked, "Who is this family?"

Fiona: "Levin Manor, the Levin family used to be one of the largest leather shoe and belt manufacturers in London after World War II. In the 90s, due to the rise of European, especially French luxury brands, the market share of Levin's products increased dramatically. In the end, he sold his property to a French luxury goods company and switched to investment. Levin Company is a shareholder of five companies and a major shareholder of two listed companies. Miss Levin, the general manager and president of Levin Company, was in Europe last year Ranked fourth among the richest women in the rich list."

Liang Xi asked, "How many people are there in this family?"

Fiona replied: "One person, huh? Just Miss Levine, her father died 15 years ago, her mother was paralyzed when she was 15, and died shortly after her father's death. Here! She adopted two twins from the Middle East five years ago."

Liang Xi sat next to Fiona to read the information: "Ms. Levin is 55 years old this year, very young, not very old. Check out the old lady's life trajectory."

Fiona query: "There is no record of going abroad before the age of 30. After the age of 30, I went abroad with my father many times. After her parents passed away, she often went abroad for work reasons. She has always been single and unmarried... Do you think I will become a single old woman in the future? Woolen cloth?"

Liang Xi looked at Fiona, he didn't know how to answer.

Fiona smiled: "I'm sorry! I've been following TV dramas lately, and my emotions are too rich. What do you think?"

"I have an idea." Liang Xi said, "It's pure guesswork!"

"what idea?"

Liang Xi didn't answer, and made a call: "Hi, I asked you about the last time, in what year was Hal sentenced to death?"

House: "You think I'm a computer?"

Liang Xi smiled: "I invite you to eat."

"Fortunately, I'm in the office." House said: "The death penalty was sentenced very early, and it was completely decided five years ago. During this period, appeals were made, and the appeals were designed by judicial agencies at all levels. According to my experience, the real determination of the death penalty should be the second instance." The charges were convicted five years ago. The subsequent complaints, accusing the prosecutors and the police handling the case, were all aimed at delaying Hal's execution time."

Liang Xi said, "I want his DNA sequence."

House: "Isn't it for you?"

Liang Xi: "You can print it out."

House asked: "Doesn't it count?"

Liang Xi was not sure: "Shouldn't it be counted?" Should this be a dynamic comparison, or should it rely on numerical comparison?

House didn't know either: "Okay, I'll send your email back." He and Liang Xi knew a lot of technology and didn't know why, and they didn't know why.Just like a mobile phone system, as long as they know how to use it, why they can use it like this is not what they care about.

Liang Xi hung up the phone and said, "Find someone to compare Mrs. Levin's DNA."

Fiona replied, "The database has DNA data from Mrs. Levine's mother. What's going on? What do you think?"

Liang Xi said: "I bet 50 yuan that Mrs. Levin is the eldest princess. She is Hal's biological mother, and the adopted son she adopted is the child of Petain and Hal."

Fiona was startled, really?

Liang Xi said without changing his face, "I'll bet another 100 yuan that I'm wrong."

Fiona couldn't understand: "Why?"

Liang Xi replied: "I just kneaded all the information together to draw a few conclusions. There should be mistakes in a few conclusions. I will sort it out for you through the timeline."
