The Story of the Seventh World (38)
Deputy Director Gordon doesn't like to be "slapped in the face", and he doesn't like to be "slapped in the face" twice, this feeling is like Hades being fooled by a ghost.
Very unhappy in his heart, Deputy Director Gordon personally called and transferred a group of people from the criminal department to arrest Barron who was about to escape according to the news given by Dean Charles.
At the same time, according to the rumored news, Barron was going to the United States on a business trip, and organized police officers to intercept it in the direction of the airport.
Hill Airport, the former military airport converted into the first civilian airport, is located on the outskirts of Luton, 48 kilometres from London. It is said to be a civilian airport, but most civilians cannot afford to take a plane, and only those who have money can do it.
Not everyone can sit on a plane, even at a civilian airport, not to mention that it is now during the Cold War, everyone has to undergo strict inspections, but fortunately, Barron has acquaintances at the airport, and when he leaves the place of work, he is the first to contact him, and people can get on the plane when they arrive.
As soon as the car left the city of London, it didn't drive far before it was caught up by the police officers of the London Metropolitan Police Department, who were behind them, and they were escorted to the London Metropolitan Police Department with the car department, and handed over to the criminal department for strict interrogation, blocking the news, prohibiting others from approaching, and getting the interrogation results as soon as possible.
Gordon not only has to find out about the vandalism of the clothing store, but also whether there is a whistleblower in the sub-bureau, and if the evidence is true, he will also investigate the business conditions of Fraser in recent years, and if there are violations of discipline, the Board of Trade will take targeted measures. (No, if there is a problem, send a message prompt!) )
After Barron was arrested, the first news reached the ears of Scottrade's butler, and after Scottrade's butler reported to Dean Charles, he only received one order, which was to assist the National Police Agency in investigating the situation of Fraser and send the investigation directly to the National Police Department.
Dean Charles felt that he owed something to Armstrong, and originally wanted to secretly observe and help the other party solve some problems, which could be regarded as making up for the guilt he felt for the two fathers and sons.
However, it seems that it is also difficult for this society to be an ordinary businessman who does his duty, and it is impossible for Dean Charles to spend most of his time taking care of Armstrong, and to prevent the embarrassment of being discovered by the other party, so he has to help openly.
But even if he helps, it doesn't mean that he will publicize it everywhere and let everyone know about the relationship between the two sides, but Armstrong and the people he trusts will understand.
The vandalism case was not as slow as expected, but after the relevant witnesses presented evidence, the verdict was made against Barron for deliberately hiring someone to vandalize the clothing store.
However, the case is not over here, and the closure of the Armstrong clothing store case does not mean that Barron has no other criminal acts, of course, the rest is the matter of the National Police Agency.
The case ruled that for the Armstrong clothing store vandalism case, Barron will pay a total of 10,000 pounds including the cost of clothing store decoration, table and chair damage, clothing theft and other expenses, of course, this is a rough calculation, the police did not investigate deeply, and Barron also did not appeal in order to avoid the crime.
The matter quickly subsided, which Armstrong did not expect, the bureau was pushed back and forth at the beginning, and there was no news after checking for a long time, but this time the mastermind behind the scenes was caught so quickly, and he also got compensation.
However, the confusion was quickly answered, and Butler Scott came to see Armstrong in person, told him all about the cause and consequences, and invited him to a dinner party at the manor, with Dean Charles having something to talk to him about.
Since the end of the dinner, Armstrong has served as an intelligence gathering officer, with two security personnel transferred from the estate, protecting the clothing store and collecting all kinds of civilian intelligence.
The bar was also opened with the approval of Dean Charles, during which Armstrong also asked professionals about all aspects of intelligence to deepen his knowledge.
The clothing store is growing smoothly, and so far it has opened a new branch in the city of London, and at the same time, it plans to expand the number of clothing stores in the surrounding area, and the source of information is even more widespread.
The establishment of the bar strengthened the source of information, and the bartenders and waiters could easily mingle with the guests in the bar, and strange news would be heard in small talk, and any useful information would be registered by Armstrong, and the staff who heard the useful news would be rewarded.
Dean Charles tasked the Church of the Light to listen to the Church of the Light, and conducted a carpet and covert search of the area covered by Armstrong's store.
Since the high-level of the cult organization secretly appeared in London and was discovered by people with good intentions, not only Dean Charles's side was investigating, but also the secret intelligence bureau and some aristocratic forces with ulterior motives have all received the news, and for a while, the secret espionage forces in London City have infiltrated the streets and alleys like a cold current.
At lunch on the second day of Su Hang and Corporal Lynn's return to the hotel, the two chatted about Yves' clothing store in idleness, and Corporal Lynn kept his promise very much and contacted his friend after returning to the hotel, but unfortunately the friend didn't seem to be going to London, saying that he was going to France to inspect and compare the market situation on both sides.
Corporal Lynn had not yet told Yves the bad news, and apparently did not want to hit him, so this morning Corporal Lynn contacted a few of his friends to see if their friends or relatives were interested in coming to the city of London for a small business.
Su Hang feels very good about Yifu, that is a good person, the same wool, the same style of top is twice the price of other people's homes, Yifu only charged a small part, Su Hang wondered if this guy only charged the price of the clothes themselves.
To be honest, Su Hang bought his clothes for the first time, and such a low price really makes people doubt the quality, but neither the workmanship nor the fabric is inferior to the same clothing in other stores, which makes Su Hang really feel that this person is okay, not the kind of person who has two sides of light and dark.
Long has seen a lot of people introduced by so-called friends, who give you a so-called low price in the open, but in fact, both the workmanship and the fabric itself are more or less defective. Even if it is the kind of defective, the other party is the first to raise the price, in exchange for your pity, I can't bear to lose too much money from the other party, after all, it is a friend to inquire, but afterwards I inquired in secret, this is already the other party's usual means.
Ifu really gives it according to the low price, and I really have nothing to say about my friends, many old customers like Corporal Lynn are very good friends with Ive, and they don't have a long relationship, and they can feel whether the other party is a true friend, and that feeling is amazing.
Su Hang also felt that Yifu was worth intersecting with after a few contacts, not the kind of hypocritical person, which also made Su Hang plan to help Yifu, but there was nothing he could do for a while.
Corporal Lynn said that Yves would leave England in a month, and that no matter whether the clothing store could sell it or not, even if it couldn't be sold, he would have to ask a friend to help him sell it.
mentioned Yve, the topic came, Corporal Lynn as the narrator in the restaurant while eating and waiting for dessert, telling about Yve's acquaintance experience, Su Hang quietly as a bystander in front of the audience.
The story is not so twisty and bizarre, it is very prosaic to make friends.
Corporal Lynn also knew Yves through someone else's introduction to the clothing store, and this person Su Hang also knew, Mr. Scott, the butler of Roberts Manor.
When Butler Scott ordered a suit for his family again, it happened that Corporal Lynn was going to a dinner party and needed a dress, but the price was hopefully not too expensive, so Butler Scott took Lynn, who had just been promoted to corporal at the time, to Yves's clothing store.
The dresses of Yves clothing store are definitely not the latest at that time, nor are they the kind of luxurious styles, but they are the best products in the low price, no matter in which aspects, the fabrics and workmanship are the best in the market at the same price.
Corporal Lynn doesn't understand the quality of clothing, and he doesn't know anything about it, but Steward Scott does! The Grand Butler had to coordinate all aspects of the manor, and it was not surprising that he knew the quality of the garments.
At the dinner, Corporal Lynn's dress was not the latest style, but it was so comfortable to look at, not the kind of defective product in the low price, giving people an awkward feeling.
After that dinner, there were even a few friends of Corporal Lynn who asked him where he bought the dress, and whether he had spent a lot of money to order a high-grade dress.
The low-priced high-quality dress, with the shot, this is Corporal Lynn's first impression of Yves's clothing store. Later many contacts and exchanges made the two people friends, they had a common topic: women, and had the same hobby: fighting.
Making friends between people is nothing more than starting from having common preferences, being able to talk, and not getting tired of each other. On this basis, they have become good friends who talk about everything, the kind that can make friends.
Corporal Lynn and Eves are the kind of friends who can talk to each other, not to the extent that they are close friends, but when they are not busy, they often chat in the café opposite the clothing store in the afternoon to relieve the usual boredom in their hearts and the troubles brought by life.
Su Hang was a good listener, listening attentively to Corporal Lynn's memories of the past, never interrupting the other party to ask questions, listening quietly, eating silently, and dessert was served on the table as early as when Corporal Lynn talked about the first meeting with Yve.
A lunch, after eating for nearly two hours, the dessert was almost finished by Su Hang alone, and Corporal Lynn was still immersed in the narration of past memories, so Su Hang had no choice but to wave his hand to add a dessert.
After the meal, Corporal Lynn proposed to go to the opera house, which had been forced to close its doors in almost nine out of ten during the Cold War.
Due to the war, there is really no profit, and there is a lot of loss, everyone's lives have been threatened, there is a crisis in food and clothing, who will have the leisure to go to the opera!
Opera houses are blooming everywhere in London, not to mention many homes, not to mention in the city of London, even during the Cold War, in addition to the royal family has a fixed opera performance, there are still a few opera houses open in various areas of London, Corporal Lynn in addition to the hobby of fighting, influenced by his family is also interested in drama.
Opera is spread in the West, just like the East has his own unique opera culture, Corporal Lynn has heard opera, Su Hang and his chatting know that his grandfather loves opera, and he also took the young Lynn to see the opera "Faust", of course, for him at that time, he didn't know if he understood it, and the clearest memory was the title of the play.
Corporal Lynn, who grew up, also loved opera, but was more interested in the plays that circulated in England, which was different from his grandfather, who was very good at the same, and only watched anything he liked, and did not watch anything else.
British local drama is different from Western opera, the origin can be traced back to a very long time, the Danish invasion is probably the establishment of the prototype of local drama, the local drama was originally evolved from the church worship, the integration of folk elements, the secular immersion, the emergence of "miracle drama".
Leaving the hotel, Su and Hangzhou did not call a carriage to drive over slowly, in order to have dinner with Mr. Celt in the evening, the two had to choose the special car provided by the hotel, and even the opera tickets were bought by the hotel.
The Metropolitan Opera, located in London's West End, is not very large, a short distance from the famous British Museum, and is surrounded by a few bars scattered on the south side of Oxford Street.
Corporal Lynn's memory of the Metropolitan Opera House comes more from his grandfather, the opera house itself does not have a long history, it is said that it is only more than 20 years old, but his grandfather was very impressed by this place, this is the place where his grandfather and grandmother last saw the opera.
Corporal Lynn's grandfather's health is envious of many people of his generation, Corporal is twenty-six years old this year, not much older than Su Hanglai, his grandfather is not even seventy years old, but compared to many people of his generation, the body is abnormally healthy.
After Corporal Lynn's grandmother died of illness two years ago, his grandfather was depressed for a while, but gradually recovered under the guidance of his family.
Recently, I heard from my family that the old man had a good time chatting with a few young girls, and even in this turbulent period, the old man still took his servants and young girls to the United States for a swim.
The young girl heard that she met at the Metropolitan Opera House, which made the old man feel better and better in his mental condition when he had a common topic, so he went out on a trip.
Corporal Lynn told Su Hang more than one afternoon about his grandfather's story, saying that his grandfather was able to lift twenty kilograms of things with one hand and walk home with a brisk walk; Running five kilometers every morning, the old man's health was better than that of the average young man.
Su Hang thought that Corporal Lynn was a little lacking in heart and told him everything about his family, but when Osmond came back to have dinner with them, he learned that Corporal Lynn's grandfather had come to Roberts Manor to visit him many times, and everyone was familiar with this old man.
The distance between the Goering Hotel and the Metropolitan Opera House is not very far, but you need to walk through the streets and alleys, which lengthens the journey, but fortunately you can go by car.
The Metropolitan Opera House is usually almost full, whether it is a private room or a seat, but fortunately, Lynn has a relative who is the manager of the theater, which is why Corporal Lynn's grandfather often comes to this theater.
Corporal Lynn's favorite thing to watch is comedy, and in this age of tragedy, comedy may be a good medicine to soothe the sad mood in people's hearts.
