Chapter 112 - Rejected Requests (1)
The man sat down opposite of us without saying a word. There were about twenty or so Table s in the dining hall, but there were only six or seven people there, and most of them were sitting alone in a corner eating western cuisine and sipping afternoon tea. Only this man insisted on sharing the same Table as us, so it was obvious that he had come prepared.
I looked at the man in front of me and nodded out of politeness. Afterwards, the man took out a piece of Newspapers from his pocket without saying a word. That Newspapers was a little old, I looked at the time, and saw that it was an old Newspapers from three to four years ago.
I also wonder if this man bought the Antique, especially this kind of old one.
Of course, being able to sit on a cruise ship like that, it's impossible for him to be someone who collects trash. Thus, I didn't think about that at all.
After the man placed the Newspapers in front of me, he pointed to one of the headlines: "I never expected to meet you here, Great Detective!"
Great Detective?
I looked at that Newspapers, which had the words "Hundred Bird Detective is creating a miracle, cracking the high-altitude fall case, and decrypting the unknown truth for you" written on it.
The title seemed to be "Howl", it seemed to be a suspicion for the title Party, but that Newspapers only had the title of its content, there were no Photos s, so it was very likely that the real Detective had solved a case and had been followed by the paparazzi to report on it, but the Detective had been very careful, even so, the records on the Newspapers only had not leaked anything related to the case, and to the Hundred Birds Detective, it was obvious that Hundred Birds hated this kind of media report, and purposely avoided it.
After the man put down the Newspapers, he said, "I'm sorry, but I heard from the Attendant that you are also on this ship, so I came to pay a visit. My name is Ai Lun, I'm sorry, but I think you should know that this is not my real name. After all, my skin color and eyes are all Chinese, but due to certain reasons, I am unable to reveal my real name. Of course, in the society, other than my family members, everyone else calls me Ai Lun, so there is nothing wrong with that. "
Speaking till here, Little White felt that he was a bit sloppy. It said directly, "Dashu, we are eating right now. Do you have something to say?"
Ai Lun said unrestrainedly: "Oh, are you a friend of the Great Detective? Sorry, I want to chat with this Mr. Detective. I don't think the little girl is suitable for a topic between adults."
's words immediately caused my good impression of Little White to drop by quite a bit. I said, "It doesn't matter, since we're both good friends of mine. Moreover, I don't like too many adult topics to talk about.
After Ai Lun heard what I said, he did not care about the people around him and went over to me, "I am the chairman of a wine company, I have something to talk to you about!"
As Ai Lun said this, he took out his name card. Taking it, I took a look at it. I have never been to this company before, but the red wine produced by this company belongs to the category of extravagant accessories, it should be a company of a considerable scale. In order to prevent embarrassment, I did not say much, but just nodded my head: "So it's actually Owner Ai Lun, I keep having the feeling that this name is somewhat familiar, that's why I can't recall it, please forgive me."
After I said that, I suddenly remembered that I had no way out, which was equivalent to admitting that I am Detective. But it didn't matter, because I said: "But Mr. Ai Lun, since we are at a family gathering right now, I do not like to be disturbed by others. If you are just being polite, then please come back another day and chat."
Hearing that, Ai Lun immediately took out a cheque and placed it in front of me. I saw that there was a million written on the cheque.
I looked at Ai Lun, and the brow frowned.
Ai Lun said: "This is the entrustment fee, I will give you the other half after this is done. "It's like this, I recently developed a new wine product which is very popular, but I always feel like the enemy company has sent a spy who wants to steal my wine formula. I even feel like that spy is on board our ship, I'd like to trouble you to help me find him, all of this money is yours!"
