43. Buy a necklace
Leaving the hotel, Zhao Damao took a taxi to Times Square in Causeway Bay, which had just opened for less than a year and was now the largest shopping mall on Hong Kong Island.
Zhao Damao followed the mall guide sign to find a Cartier store.
Zhao Damao walked into the store, although Zhao Damao walked into the store in a shabby body, but there was no bloody incident, and the shopping guide girl greeted her with a professional smile, "Sir, hello, can I help you?" β
"I want to buy a diamond necklace for my girlfriend." Zhao Damao said.
"This way, please." The shopping guide girl guided Zhao Damao to the glass counter of the diamond necklace. Zhao Damao looked at the dazzling necklaces in the glass display case, and his head grew for a while.
asked the shopping guide girl next to him, "Do you have any good recommendations?" β
The girl skillfully pointed to a necklace in the display case: "This is our Cartier love series necklace, the love series necklace was born in New York in the seventies, symbolizing the unswerving love, love is endless." The entire necklace pendant is set with 99 diamonds with a total weight of 0.68 carats. And the whole necklace design is relatively simple, no matter what style of girl can easily control, it is very suitable for your girlfriend, and it can represent your straightforward love for your girlfriend sir. β
Zhao Damao in his previous life didn't know much about luxury goods at all, listening to the introduction of the shopping guide in his ear, Zhao Damao was complaining in his heart, "Isn't it just a circle pendant necklace?" And so much more meaning. But he said to the shopping guide girl: "No need to introduce, just this, help me wrap it, swipe the card!" β
The shopping guide girl listened to Zhao Damao's words and became more enthusiastic: "Okay sir, this necklace is a total of 60,080 Hong Kong dollars, I'll help you wrap it!" Is there anything else you need? β
"No more! You take me to pay. The shopping guide wrapped the necklace and took Zhao Damao to the cash register, Zhao Damao took the necklace in the hand of the shopping guide after swiping the card, and walked out of the store in the "welcome next time" of the shopping guide girls behind him.
Zhao Damao walked out of the mall and dialed Nie Baoyan's phone:
"Bao Yan, do you have time to have dinner together in the evening? I'll pick you up from work. β
In fact, Zhao Damao and Nie Baoyan's matter was only the last layer of window paper that was not pierced, and Nie Baoyan naturally would not refuse: "Okay, I have time after work, but you don't have to pick me up, I drive to work by myself, you tell me the address, and I will drive there by myself after work." β
Zhao Damao recalled the name of the Western restaurant that he remembered better, and told Nie Baoyan the name and address of a Western restaurant.
After hanging up the phone, Zhao Damao came to the western restaurant that he told Nie Baoyan, found the owner of the restaurant, threw the boss a thick envelope with money, arranged a date with Nie Baoyan in the evening, and left with the nod of the restaurant owner.
In the CID office of the police station, Zhao Damao walked into the office and saw a group of people gathered around the desk.
Zhao Damao walked over: "Brother Yong, what are you discussing here?" β
Zhang Dayong glanced up at Zhao Damao: "Da Mao is back, you also come over to take a look, we are talking about Mr. Zhang's jewelry transaction this time." β
As soon as Zhao Damao heard it, he knew that Zhang Dayong did not tell everyone that Zhang Baichuan was his father, and Zhao Damao naturally would not dismantle Zhang Dayong's platform with many mouths.
Zhao Damao approached the desk and saw that the information on the desk was all about Zhang Baichuan's transaction, and the map was also taken out and the route of the transaction was drawn.
Zhang Dayong looked at Zhao Damao and asked, "Da Mao, do you have any opinions?" β
Zhao Damao didn't answer in a hurry, but asked, "Brother Yong, how did you discuss?" β
Zhang Dayong replied, "We just discussed it, and we all think that the robbers are most likely to do it on the way to the trade!" β
In Criminal Investigation File 1, there are not many scenes where Zhang Baichuan's jewelry is robbed, and it adds up to less than one episode. The reason for this part of the scene is estimated to be mainly to give Zhang Baichuan and Zhang Dayong an opportunity to ease the relationship, but it is also the only scene in the 20-episode TV series where the gunfight is more intense.
Zhao Damao thought for a while and said: "It is true that there is the greatest chance of doing it halfway!" If you do it in a hotel or trading place, one is that the security in these places is very tight and it is difficult to get in, and the other is difficult to get out and run away! β
After listening to Zhao Damao's words, Li Zhongyi clasped his hands in his arms: "Brother Da Mao, the reason you said is the same as what Brother Yong just told us, but there is still a long distance from the hotel to the trading place, and we have a headache where will they do it?" β
In the TV series, there are very few plots in this part, and there is no description of the location where the gangsters appeared to attack the convoy, so Zhao Damao had no way to know the location of the robbers.
Zhao Damao asked, "Then Brother Yong, what are you going to do?" β
"I looked at the map from the hotel to the trading place, and in addition to the route planned by Mr. Zhang's company, there are many other routes that can be taken. I was thinking about whether to prepare several of the same convoys to stop the robbers by keeping the gangsters unaware of the real movements of the jewels. Zhang Dayong said.
Zhao Damao listened to it and secretly pondered that Zhang Dayong in the TV series only revealed his true feelings when Zhang Baichuan was in danger, but now that the robbery has not happened, it can be seen that Zhang Dayong is particularly concerned about this matter.
Zhao Damao held his chin in his hand and thought for a while and said, "Brother Yong, have you ever considered that the robbers' goal is this batch of hundreds of millions of jewels!" I will definitely stare at Mr. Zhang's team, and I won't care about other teams at all! Unless we can find someone who looks and looks like Mr. Zhang and follows the other convoys, it will be difficult for the robbers to be fooled. According to the information given by Mr. Zhang, the day after tomorrow, that is, on Friday, the transaction will be conducted, where can we find such a person? β
Zhang Dayong and the others listened and nodded again and again, and Zhang Dayong said: "Actually, you don't need to look similar, you just need to be about the same figure, cover your appearance and come out of the hotel, so that the robbers can't tell which team Mr. Zhang is in!" β
"This is okay, but Brother Yong have you thought about it, after all, this is a commercial transaction, and the whole transaction process cannot be completely kept secret at all, our police, Mr. Zhang's entourage, insurance companies, may know who is the real Mr. Zhang, and even ordinary employees of the hotel may find out." After Zhao Damao finished speaking, he paused for a moment and continued: "And if you are so confused, the robbers will always choose a convoy." We can't tell which way the robbers will rob, unless we have a decent amount of police in every convoy. Otherwise, we'll all have to finish the game if something happens! β
Zhang Dayong's brows furrowed when he heard this, and the mainland next to him said, "Brother Yong, are you thinking too much?" In fact, with our police protecting Zhang Baichuan to the transaction site, maybe the robbers would not dare to do it at all, even if the robbers did, we could deal with it! Didn't we deal with similar things in the past? β
Zhang Dayong retorted: "It can't be said that according to the information of the Intelligence Bureau, the robbers this time have a large number of firearms!" β
Zhao Damao knew that Zhang Dayong was worried about Zhang Baichuan's accident, and he was a little worried that he would be in chaos.
"Brother Yong, in fact, I agree with the mainland's statement, we are actually the safest to concentrate police forces to protect Mr. Zhang! Li Daitao's zombie seems to be safe, but it makes our police force scattered, and it is more dangerous. Zhao Damao said to Zhang Dayong.
"I think what Da Mao said is very right, just concentrate the police to protect Zhang Baichuan, where did you get so many fish and eyes? Dayong: This doesn't look like your usual behavior? Madam, who was standing at the door at some point, walked into the office and said.
Madam Lei, who walked into the office, said to Zhang Dayong again: "Dayong, this matter is decided!" Zhang Baichuan is going to trade the day after tomorrow, you hurry up and arrange it! β
βyesοΌmadamοΌβ Zhang Dayong reluctantly agreed.
Zhao Damao put his arm around Zhao Dayong's shoulder: "Brother Yong, don't worry, nothing will happen, think about it carefully, what we are doing now is the safest!" It can not only ensure the smooth progress of the transaction, but also protect the safety of Mr. Zhang. β
Zhang Dayong thought about it and nodded, and also thought that he might really be thinking too much.
