Chapter 41: Temptation, Where Did Sean Go
The gaming industry has been booming in recent years, because too many people like to play games to kill time and find like-minded people. After the popularization of smartphones, more mobile games were developed, and the number of them increased to millions.
As an agent, Penny doesn't play games because games spin the brain in a simple circuit, which is addictive and lowers IQ.
She played a few awkwardly, and then it was gone.
She's not an otaku, and it's not her cup of tea.
The game is okay, but there is nothing particularly outstanding about it, and the food delivery app is much the same, all of which are to choose a restaurant to order, pay at the door or pay directly online.
Penny felt a little clueless, put down her phone and looked around, the door of the store was still full of people, from time to time there were food delivery people riding back, and some people were riding away with food delivery bags.
It's a normal scenario, and it would be terrible if such a store became part of an underground network,......
But the scariest thing is the person who came up with this method.
Some sins never go away because there is a market.
But there is another kind of evil, which is completely legal on the surface, but it can magnify the original evil dozens of times, making the controllable situation suddenly uncontrollable.
Penny frowned as the pedestrians rushed by outside the window, and the ground began to see steaming moisture.
The storm in the Pacific Ocean is said to have formed and will soon affect Southern California.
It's all bad news!
The door was pushed open, and Penny saw Miller come out with two drinks and a box, first to the back to the corner, then across the street, and then to the car.
He handed things in through the window: "The coffee is yours." Another box came in, and it was filled with a strong aroma of cheese and onions. She placed the pizza box on the front center console.
Getting into the car from the other side, Miller closed the door: "Guess what I saw, it says that animals are not allowed to enter." ”
"Uhhhh ”
"Hmm..."Miller nodded, sometimes the detectives will use some more ingenious methods to solve the case, such as going in and testing it when they are not sure if there is a problem with the store.
Of course, it doesn't mean that if you feel that there is a problem, you will immediately arrest people, that will not work, but in this way, it can be determined that the store has a major suspicion, and the scope of investigation can be narrowed down in the future.
Otherwise, with so many stores, how can there be so many police forces to check one by one, maybe any of them are fine, maybe all of them are problematic.
As the technician said, this is a completely new model, no one can think of it, only the people in the chain know where their upper and lower links are.
"If you want to search for a certificate, it's more difficult to apply." Penny opened the box, took a slice of pizza, and looked at it, "There's not enough evidence." ”
I took a bite and it was quite fragrant.
"I don't think it's very easy to stuff stuff stuff in a lot of Pizza like this." Penny munched on the dough as she studied the flatbread.
"It's not difficult!" Miller also reached out and took a slice of pizza, the cheese was shredded, with green peppers and onions on top, as well as shrimp and ham, he looked at it for a while, "Look, it's thicker on this side, stuffed into a small plastic bag and sealed with hot cheese, who can tell!" Of course, I don't think they're going to shove this thing in and bake it. ”
Penny nodded, if it was stuffed into the cake crust and then processed in the oven, then the contents would be broken.
"The shop owner, the chef, the food delivery person, these three kinds of people are the most suspicious!"
He shook his head and took a bite, and said vaguely, "Maybe find someone to try it out as a delivery person?" ”
"I'm afraid I can't find a suitable one."
Miller looked at himself: "Not really. ”
"It's also a way, go back and see if there are any suitable people in the bureau." Penny said.
Miller thought for a moment: "How many delivery people do you think a store like this will need?" ”
"I don't know, it depends on the business, right? This shop is doing very well. ”
"Maybe it's because the hostesses are pretty, by the way, I see the staff watch," Miller recalls the sign hanging behind the cash register, "There were ten people in total, and six of them were supposed to be delivery people, and the owner's own name was not on it." ”
"And then?"
"There's a delivery guy who didn't show up for work today, it's marked, and his name is Shaun."
"Maybe it's time off." Penny looked at him, "Do you think there's something wrong with this person?" ”
Miller muttered, "Contacting them and recruiting food delivery people, I think there is a bit of a problem in the middle. Maybe it's because there aren't enough people, maybe it's because this Sean is leaving or preparing to leave. ”
"Need I ask?" Penny asked, eating pizza.
"What do you think?"
"Pretending to be a friend of Sean?" Penny said casually.
"Do you know what he looks like?"
"I'm a woman." Penny quickly finished the pizza, drank the coffee, and wiped her hands clean with a tissue, "Look at me!" ”
"Don't alarm them."
"Don't worry!" Penny pushed the car door open, and when a few pedestrians passed by, she quickly went out and closed the door as if she were walking with the others.
She walked back for a while, then crossed the street, turned back to Manolio Pizza, and pushed the door in.
It's a pretty good business.
It was very lively, with a TV playing sports in the middle of the dining area, and a good-looking hostess talking to the guests.
Penny sat down in a corner and waited for someone to greet her, when the hostess arrived.
"Hello, what do you want?" Sheeney put a menu in front of Penny, "Would you like to try this Mediterranean pizza?" ”
Penny had already thought of the wording before she entered the door, and she glanced at the hostess's badge: "Hello, I have eaten your pizza, it was sent by a young man named Shaun, I think it tastes good, I happen to be around today, so I will come and try other varieties." By the way, Sean isn't there? ”
"He didn't come today." Sheeney shrugged, "So what do you want today?" ”
"I'll see, it seems to be all good, isn't he going to work today?"
"I don't know, maybe I don't want to come!" Sheenie said casually, she had less patience with the female guests, because her appearance did not increase the tip.
"Why don't you want to come?" Penny asked curiously, she found that this woman might be a breakthrough, "Business here is so good, it should be a good income!" To people like him..."
In order not to arouse the hostess's suspicions, Penny asked, her hand swiping across the menu, as if she was hesitating to choose.
"yes, he's pretty diligent, but the boss doesn't like him. The mediterranean pizza was really nice and a coffee was given as well. ”
"Then come to this!" Penny smiled and nodded, she knew what rhythm was.
Sheenie put away the menu, smiled and went to the counter to place an order, Penny stretched her hands and looked at the shop, a very common pizza shop.
That Shaun should not be treated well by the boss, but what is the reason?
This Sheeney must know.
