Santa Monica Avenue in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles is packed with luxury cars, lined with palm trees standing straighter than telephone poles, as if welcoming distinguished guests with the utmost sincerity.

In the middle of the car, there was a nondescript Cadillac, huddled in the middle of the convoy, crawling slowly forward like a turtle.

Hou Biao drove the car, carefully observing the situation at every intersection he passed and the nearby vehicles.

The Wolf family is very powerful in Los Angeles, and with Hong Kui's explanation, the professor and his party were received very warmly. They originally arranged a Rolls-Royce for Professor Mei, but Hou Biao felt that the car was too conspicuous and asked for another one. The professor doesn't care, he just says he can take a nap. He used to drive an old-fashioned Cadillac when he was in the United States, and he felt very comfortable, so he did what he wanted.

It's easy to get caught up in the usual traffic on the streets of Los Angeles, but when it comes to Beverly Hills, especially at this special moment, it's become very conspicuous.

Hou Biao knew that the cars around him were filled with rich people and celebrities who were going to today's charity dinner, and some of them were their bodyguard convoys. It's just that the rich and celebrities drive luxury cars, but what puzzles him is that their bodyguards also drive supercars, so will it seem that their owners are arrogant? Or run faster when you're in danger? But in Hou Biao's view, whether it is escape or pursuit, a 150 pickup truck is definitely more practical than any sports car.

Professor May was napping in the back seat of the car, and the two days of socializing had made him dizzy, and in his own words, talking to a politician was more tiring than talking to a fool. A fool doesn't know what you're talking about, but a politician knows what you're talking about and pretends not to know what you're talking about, and then says something that only he knows he's talking about, and you never guess what he's talking about.

Mei Ziqing is very energetic. She stared at the scenery outside the car with wide eyes, and guessed which star was sitting in which car. Although she can also be called a scientist, the nature of women always can't help but be curious about what those handsome guys and beauties in the movie look like in reality.

The car pulled up to a stop in front of a large building that looked a bit like a post office a few decades ago. Hou Biao got out of the car, opened the car door, and escorted the professor out of the car. A receptionist who knew the professor greeted him warmly, greeted him and walked forward.

Hou Biao swept lightly over him with his mental power, and then consciously fell behind a few positions and followed behind the professor.

Other tycoons and celebrities also got off one after another, leaving many people in suits and spy headphones in the square. Hou Biao knew that most of these were bodyguards brought by the rich, and they could not enter the main venue, so they could only wait on the periphery.

Police and security personnel are maintaining order and telling them to pull their vehicles into designated locations. They were polite to each other on the surface, smiling at each other, but their eyes were full of disdain. Presumably, the police felt that these people were redundant, Beverly Hills is one of the safest places in the world for the rich, and the bodyguards probably did not believe in the ability and responsibility of the government officials, so not only did they disdain, but even smiled indifferently.

Hou Biao found a familiar face in the crowd, it was his own people who had arranged in advance, they couldn't enter the venue, but the inspection and arming of the periphery still had to be in place. Of course, this is also thanks to the help of the Wolf family, otherwise it would be extremely troublesome for him to arrange a large number of people to come over in such a place.

The man nodded at him, then looked down at the headset and said something. Hou Biao also said something, looked around again, and walked behind the professor and Mei Ziqing.

The architecture of the Wallis Anneberg Center for the Performing Arts is characteristic, combining tradition and modernity, and looks both contemporary and magnificent, but also with retro elegance. Walk into the marble hall and you'll see eight murals depicting hungry children and people queuing up to get food.

As soon as Hou Biao saw the painting, his heart immediately became nervous. He remembered that Aoki had said that Xia Wenyuan was parasitic because he bought a famous painting by Picasso from Ronald Cohen. Although the exact method of parasitism has not yet been figured out, it is very possible to parasitize or activate some kind of consciousness energy through paintings.

Fortunately, Professor Mei did not go to see the murals, and Hou Biao heard someone next to him introduce that this was a project of the Federal Public Service Promotion Agency, which depicted the scene of the Great Depression, so that everyone should not forget the tragedy of the past and not follow the path of the past.

Hou Biao relaxed and stopped paying attention to the murals.

There were a few big men walking around the hall who were also wearing headphones, and Hou Biao knew that they were civilian clothes specially arranged by the FBI. As he walked up the stairs to the main theater, the detector beeped. Two security officers demanded that he show his ID and that he hand over his gun and other metal objects on his body.

Hou Biao didn't say anything, handed over the documents to them for registration, and then quickly scanned the two people with his mental power. His hypnotic ability is not as powerful as Aoki's, but it has also improved by leaps and bounds in the past year or so, and it is not difficult to get through a level.

The two men seemed to be alert and stared at Hou Biao for a while, but still returned the documents to him. At this time, he was already behind the security detector, so naturally it would not cause the alarm.

After entering the main theater, there is basically no immediate danger. It is unlikely that there will be a gun attack in such a high-profile setting, or the federal government will have to consider cutting government spending.

But Hou Biao didn't dare to take it lightly, since he could enter the venue with a gun, then others could naturally too, whether it was using special abilities or power. What's more, those security personnel and federal agents may not all be reliable, who knows if there are any parasites among them, and if there will be any actions against the professor. Even if it is not aimed at the professor, but the important people next to it, there is a possibility that it will harm the pond fish.

Usually called charity, in fact, in social activities, the core figures are a certain heavyweight capitalist or politician, and even top entertainment stars can only be escorts, and scientists like Mei Yiqiu rarely appear on such occasions, and they usually appear casually. And this time is different, because this is originally a few capitalists who want to participate in the space box project, so they deliberately hold such a charity event that combines technology and entertainment, and most of the guests who come today are also players of "Dream Guide". If it weren't for this reason, Mei Yiqiu would never have been willing to participate.

As soon as the host introduced Professor Mei, the atmosphere at the scene became warm, and everyone stepped forward to shake hands with the professor and take a group photo, and he became the core figure of the event.

Hou Biao stood in the corner of the venue, carefully observing everyone and their every move. He heard someone say:

"This bad old man is the leader of the space box project?"

"yes, he's not a bad old man, he's now the chief scientific advisor to the United Nations Space Management Committee!"

"Isn't China all copycats, why are the top things now made in China, our apples? Is it all rotten? If Old Man Qiao is alive, he will definitely not let these Chinese show off! ”

"Don't the Chinese still learn from us? Professor May was also previously at Princeton. ”

"I suspect that the officials of the federal government are parasitized by aliens, you see what they have done in the past two years, far worse than the leaders of China!"

"I think the federal government is fine, and it would be strange if they could make a smart decision! I see, it is the Chinese who are parasitized, and the aliens have taught them black technology, otherwise how can they make such a thing as a space box? ”

The people next to him thought so, and nodded their heads one after another, looking at Mei Yiqiu's eyes differently, as if they saw a big-headed and small-headed alien living in his head, who was laughing evilly. 8)
