fog city detective

Facing the short man's statement, Liang Xi replied: "Your idea is very innovative. Fiona, can you synthesize a photo of Mel's man into the system and enable automatic face recognition in the public system?"

Fiona said: "It's hard to deal with. You can see in all her photos, her curly hair on both sides is down, from the corners of her eyes, and her bangs are also very thick. The only features that can be provided for automatic recognition are eyes, nose and lips. .After synthetic processing, the recognition rate is very low.”

Liang Xi asked: "Didn't she have a picture when she was in prison?"

"Compare the photos from eight years ago. Is the gap too big?"

Liang Xi looked at the photo, the one on the left was when he was imprisoned, a slim girl with a protruding front and back, bright and pure sunshine, brave and fearless.On the right is a recent photo of Mel, a slovenly woman with no waist visible, looking like she is waiting to die.Had it not been for Fiona's clarification, no one would have thought the two photos were of the same person.

The short detective kept biting his nails during the conversation between Liang Xi and Fiona, raised his hand and interjected, "What she needs to change most is her appearance and class."

"Oh?" Liang Xi looked at the short man: "Do you have any specific ideas?"

The short detective said: "The mansion, the housekeeper, the noble lady, are in stark contrast to her previous background. She can even openly live with her own team members. No patrolman will compare her with the Mel we want to arrest. connect together."

Liang Xi looked at the photo and pondered for a while: "My opinion is probably the same."

The short man: "But?"

Liang Xi smiled and said, "But whether she transforms into a lady or a male scholar, I think she must do something."

"Cockney accent?" asked the short man.

Liang Xi said: "You seem to have missed the information. Her childhood private English teacher was a true Londoner. I think she will deal with the figure first. It is a kind of discrimination to say that being fat equals being ugly. In fact, many fat women lose weight. Glamorous. On the contrary, many women are no longer the focus of the party after gaining weight."

Fiona added on the side: "Like Brosnan's wife."

Liang Xi hurriedly said: "No, she is also very attractive now." Whether it is correct or not, most people will receive less attention when they gain weight.What Liang Xi meant was that since Mel is a beauty embryo, as long as she loses weight successfully, she will definitely look radiant.At that time, she was mature and charming, different from the immature prison photos, and even more different from the sloppy Mel.

Mel has mastered many identities, and as long as she succeeds in transforming, she can openly take to the streets with her new identity.Unless a patrolman recognizes her and asks to check her fingerprints.However, Liang Xi believes that with New Mel's momentum, unless the police are very sure, they will not choose her as the object of investigation.

Fiona said: "How to catch her when she is losing weight? She can lock herself in the basement, exercise every day, and control her diet."

"The normal weight loss method is effective at the beginning, but after reducing to a certain weight, the effect will also decrease." Liang Xi said: "She doesn't seem to be a patient person. I think she will use black technology to lose weight."

Fiona: "Medicine plus liposuction. Liposuction works really well in the short term and she will definitely do it."

Liang Xi said: "But liposuction is not a simple operation." If only the abdomen, thighs and other parts are performed, it is not complicated.To make a face requires not only a professional doctor, but also a step-by-step, multiple liposuction according to the shape of the cheeks and facial features.If you want to do whole body liposuction, you need not only professional medical equipment, professional doctors, but also several days.After the operation, it takes a long time for the body to self-adjust.

Liang Xi looked at the short detective: "If you agree with my point of view, you will be in charge of the investigation in this direction."

The short detective hesitated: "Of course I agree, but... But Mr. Liang, you seem to be an advisor to the Anti-Terrorism Office." You don't have the authority to give me orders.

Liang Xi asked: "Didn't the Anti-Terrorism Office turn the blade into scum?"

Fiona was so upset that she kicked Liang Xi's ass, Liang Xi staggered two steps, turned to look at Fiona, then turned to look at the short detective: "Don't worry, no one in the blade will question my little dispatch authority. But before I want to ask you a question first: How are you going to start?"

The short detective replied: "I will rule out big hospitals first, and focus on veterinarians, especially animal hospitals that do grooming for pets. They are also equipped with liposuction equipment."

Liang Xidao: "I think the animal hospitals that can perform liposuction for pets are usually large hospitals. Even if the objects of service are not human beings, their daily work procedures are very strict."

The short man thought for a while and said, "I'll go to the Criminal Investigation Department of the Southern District first. The Criminal Investigation Department of the Southern District is mainly responsible for organized crime. They know many doctors who are willing to deal with illegal injuries. For example, gunshot wounds." If it is a gunshot wound, the doctor will first Save people, and then call the police at the first time.But these black doctors are different. They take money to do things, regardless of the identity of the other party.As Lunhei is more likely to be injured than ordinary people, they also need such a doctor.

Liang Xi reminded: "Trust. Does a black doctor dare to take in a woman who is wanted by the whole city? The key point is not good-looking. The black doctor took Mel in for the sake of money. In addition to the equipment requirements, this operation also requires He can't do it alone, will Mel trust the black doctor and his assistant?"

The short man pondered for a while, then asked, "The area where people gather?"

Liang Xi said: "Afghan doctors may be willing to provide assistance to compatriots or passers-by, but would they be willing to provide cosmetic surgery services? In addition, British Afghans are not monolithic. Many of them have accepted British culture and have taken root in London for dozens of years. Years. Some people hate identity-phobia very much, and it is because of these identity-phobia that they are paid attention to by colored eyes every day." The holy religion is divided into Shia and Sunni, and there are also small factions within the sect.

Liang Xi reminded: "Mel's social circle is not wide. She deals with ex-convicts in Wolf Dog Building on a daily basis, and her social status is not high. The income and status of cosmetic doctors are relatively high. If she is just an ordinary criminal, money can Get everything done, but she is a terrorist who is wanted by the whole city, and money is not so easy to use sometimes."

The short man became more and more nervous, and the sweat was dripping from his forehead. It could be seen that he wanted to show off in front of Liang Xi.

Fiona smooths things over: "Anything is possible."

"Of course it is possible, but we must first look for the possibility with the highest probability." Liang Xi said: "For example, does the original prison inmate have a cosmetic doctor? For example, does the original prison inmate know a reliable cosmetic doctor? In addition, we must guarantee a few days Doctor Time will not betray Mel, and the best way is to send someone to get closer to the doctor's family. To lure them for profit, and to threaten them with danger."

Liang Xi further said: "Mel's social resources have been in one area for the past few years, and she will not jump out of the comfort zone of trust. In this comfort zone, she knows who is trustworthy, and outside of this area, it is difficult for her to find someone who can trust her in a short time. Trusted resources. I suggest you go to the prison to find someone to talk to, preferably with the assistance of the prison guards, ask them to pay attention to the person you are talking to, and see if the person you are talking to finds a way to communicate with the outside world after the conversation is over. "

Liang Xidao: "Using information asymmetry, asking true and false inquiries, while looking for the information you need, while digging holes for them to jump. Idle is idle, and if you don't dig, you don't dig."

"Understood." The short detective nodded and left, Liang Xi explained the direction, and he was in charge of the operation.

Liang Xi looked at his back and asked, "Who is this?"

Fiona said: "Piero, it is said that he has excellent grades in the police academy, so he was directly promoted to the Criminal Investigation Department of the Central District after graduation. Cyclops invited him to join the blade a month ago, but it is a pity that he has never been used. I want to abolish it." He must be on the 30% employee list, and this should be his last chance, so he raised his hand and came to chat with you about the case."

Fiona asked, "How's the level?"

Liang Xidao: "I'm a self-taught amateur detective, and I'm not qualified to evaluate high-achieving students who graduated from majors."

"Believe it or not, sister, I raped you on the spot?" I played sloppy with me.

Liang Xi chuckled, Thaksin.

Liang Xidao: "The gap between a person with a score of 99 and a person with a score of 90 is not very large. I think he is an excellent detective. Unfortunately, Blade has many excellent detectives, and they are excellent And senior agent . . . Browning."

An agent looked up and raised his hand at Liang Xi.Liang Xi asked, "What grade did you graduate from the Police University?"

Browning replied: "No.1. What's wrong?"

"It's okay." Liang Xi smiled at Fiona.

Fiona said speechlessly: "I hate your daily fart, and feel sorry for your decadent failure."

Liang Xi thought for a while: "As a detective, I think there is a truth and a lie in your sentence. Anyway, thank you that day."

"no need thank me?"

"Thank you for leaving before I opened the mail. Saved me a pair of panties."

Fiona squinted: "But some people will take advantage of other people's good intentions." The subtext is that Liang Xi deduced that Fiona knew the content of the email from the beginning.Still the same sentence, Fiona knew that she should perform to her heart's content, and left after Liang Xi opened the email with ridicule.But as an emotional person, she really couldn't bear to make Liang Xi suffer more.

"No." Liang Xi looked to the side and shouted, "Robert, are you ready?"

Robert was handing over the paperwork with an agent, and raised his hand to indicate that you will wait.After talking for a while, he took his coat and walked over: "Where are we going?"

"Wait, five, four, three, two, one... do it again, five, four..."

An agent walked to the central control position, nodded to Liang Xi and Robert, picked up the remote control on the table and turned on the TV, a photo of a woman about 40 years old appeared on it, and the agent said: "Xue Mi, Mel Tong The cellmate, Xuemi, is 39 years old and was sentenced to [-] years in prison for seriously injuring her ex-boyfriend and his girlfriend with a knife ten years ago. She was released on parole three years ago and opened a private financial company in her community. Tax filing for families and individuals. Also accepts advice on financial and tax issues."

Robert said: "It seems that there is no bright spot. She is on parole, and a lot of information, including bank accounts, will be regulated."

The agent sent the second photo, male, about 50 years old: "Saibo, the only employee of Xuemi, once lived in the Iraqi country where Mel belongs for 15 years, and his work background in Iraq is temporarily unknown. Saibo Everything seems to be normal for Bo, but his frequency of going abroad is abnormal. In the past three years, he has gone abroad more than four times a year on average. The regions he went to were either the Middle East or some countries in Africa that are dominated by holy religions. I think cyber is It's real terror."

The agent added: "Sybo may be Mel's butler, and he will actually operate everything. Not only Mel's butler, but also Mel's father's butler. The reason why I think so is because I noticed that Mel My childhood English teacher was a Londoner, and Saibo is a typical Londoner. When he lived in Iraq, Iraq encountered important changes, so Saibo returned to the UK."

Liang Xi agreed with the agent's point of view, saying: "This is also an important reason why Mel chose to settle in the UK."

The agent nodded, he thought so.

Liang Xi said, "You can go now."

Robert watched the detective leave with a bag and asked, "Where are we going?"

"Send me back."

"Fishing again?"

Liang Xi said: "Robert, there are a lot of talents in Daofeng, all of whom are elites selected from various departments. This case is not a criminal investigation case, and it is definitely better for them to handle it according to their own ideas than me to join in the fun. Everyone knows that Daofeng will cut 30 % of employees, no one knows whether they will be on the list of layoffs, whether Piero or this detective, they all want to control their own destiny through their own efforts. Look at other people, Those who are still fishing, waiting for other people's results and orders from their superiors, and those who are only going to do assisting work, they don't really care whether they can stay at the blade."

Liang Xi said: "Piero's thinking is innovative. The information and materials used by the agents to lock the cyber are the information and materials that all agents have. At least it shows that the former has thought hard, and the latter has worked hard. They may not necessarily Can get Mel, but if I were Isa, I would be very happy to have such subordinates."

There is no shortcut to catching the target. First, we must analyze the characteristics of the target, and second, we must gamble on luck.It can be said that Liang Xi knew nothing about Mel. He didn't know this woman. To dig Mel out, Liang Xi also needed luck.You said that she would undergo liposuction, yes, after undergoing liposuction, she would be a different person, but if she lacked the conditions, she would not undergo liposuction.It is not ruled out that Mel is willing to live in the sewer every day like a mouse.

Yisha's invitation to Liang Xi at the dinner table the day before yesterday was to invite Liang Xi to take advantage of the Mel case to take a look at the blade, not to ask Liang Xi to dig Mel out.Liang Xi read it, the Blade Monitor also watched it, and Robert also watched it, and handed the information to Isa, and Isha knew who would leave and who would stay.

Liang Xi and Robert were about to leave when Fiona stopped them. Fiona looked at the screen and said, "I just received a message that Petain's parole application has been approved and she will be released on parole next month. You must leave the UK within 24 hours after that, and you cannot re-enter the UK for five years."

Liang Xi said: "What kind of parole is this?" This is a real release, plus deportation.

Liang Xi asked: "Robert, can you talk to the parole board or the judge and get rid of the ban on entering the UK for five years?"

"What do you want?" Robert asked.

Liang Xi said, "Fiona is our friend."

It took Fiona a few seconds to decipher the meaning of this sentence, and she reacted: "I am not my father, and I will not interfere in my father's private life." Fiona obviously knew that Phil and Petain had an affair.Not many people know about Phil and Petain, and the director's office notified everyone in the know not to discuss it or spread it outside.Without knowing Pétain's identity, Phil ruined his brilliant future because of Pétain, and most of the insiders are sympathetic to Phil.

Robert said: "I can operate it." Look at Fiona.

Fiona said: "I'm fine, you can do whatever you want. I don't hate her, but it's impossible to like her either."

Liang Xi reminded: "She is a fearful person, you should hate her."

Fiona spread her hands: "Hate and like are not emotions I can control. If I can control it, I will definitely put you on the list of hate, the most hate list."

"why?"

"Because you don't like me, I don't want to like you." The more I want to forget someone, the more I miss him, this damned one is still dangling in front of me when he is fine.

Because Robert was present, this topic seemed particularly awkward, Liang Xi said, "Robert, let's go."
