Chapter 76 London Concert
June 23rd.
Huang Ji and others spent thirteen days happily on the boat.
During the period, they got along with all the boatmen in the bottom tank. Among them, Huang Ji also professionally carried out a repair, and no one doubted his identity at all.
Even Zhao Wanshan, the safety manager, came down once and saw Huang Ji, Lin Li, and Lao Wang chatting and laughing with Tao Jun and other crew members, and thought he was a new boatman.
Later, when Huang Ji and Manager Zhao met at the upper level, Manager Zhao also introduced him to the chief mate, captain and others.
Because Huang Ji is too talkative, he can always talk about the things that others are most interested in, and he is like a duck in water on a boat.
So he quickly became very familiar with almost all the crew of the cruise ship.
During a dinner party, Huang Ji inadvertently mentioned that there were thieves on the ship.
Zhao Wanshan immediately said: I know that several tourists have complained, but there is no clue at all. Every time a crime is committed, either the other party covers up his face or the surveillance is covered.
Huang Ji said casually: Oh? So where the surveillance is covered, it will be stolen?
That said, but we can't send people to watch all the surveillance 24 hours a day, right? Even if we find it, we can only determine an area, and we can't pinpoint which room was stolen. The thief is very familiar with the terrain, we use It's too much to wait for the rabbits, but I still haven't caught anyone. Zhao Wanshan said.
Huang Ji said, Really? Is there any rule for being stolen?
Regular? Zhao Wanshan asked someone to bring the police list of tourists. The list was filled with the names and rooms of the tourists who had been stolen.
Huang Ji glanced at it and said, Why are there no third and tenth floors?
Yeah... Zhao Wanshan thought.
At this time, Deputy Chen said: The third floor is all economical rooms, maybe the thief thinks there is nothing to steal. The tenth floor is a special suite we reserved for the six shareholders. Only one person lives on it this time. Shareholders, he brought bodyguards, thieves dare not worry about it.
Huang Ji said: The thief must have bought a ticket to board the boat. Do you think he will buy a luxury suite?
Everyone pondered, the thief would definitely not buy a luxury suite, otherwise, what if he didn't steal much in one trip, but lost money instead? So the thief must have bought a cheap economy suite.
That guy must live on the third floor! Zhao Wanshan said bitterly.
But there are too many rooms on the third floor, and we can't just search the rooms of tourists. Deputy Chen frowned.
There are 500 suites on the third floor, and more than 1,000 people live there. It is impossible to keep an eye on everyone's whereabouts.
However, Huang Ji said: But there is only one person living on the tenth floor. We will arrive in Hong Kong tomorrow. I think it is better to keep an eye on it for the next 20 hours. If the property of the major shareholder is damaged, I am afraid that the insurance company will Can't you afford it?
Each person gets on the boat, and the ticket price includes the insurance fee, so if the tourists are stolen, the cruise ship operator will pay part of it, and the insurance company will pay part of it.
This makes tourists lose their memory after being stolen, and increase their vigilance, so that the habitual thief of pineapple rolls is like a cruise ship as a base, and they come to withdraw money at every turn.
And because the insurance company pays part of it, the cruise ship operator is making huge profits. It doesn't matter if they pay 200,000 to 300,000 yuan. In order not to disturb the residents and disturb the tourists' experience, they will not launch a particularly severe search.
Unless there is a clue, or the current situation is caught, the cruise ship's police officers have nothing to do if they don't know who stole it.
On the tenth floor, even thieves can't go up. To enter the tenth floor, you need to go through a security gate... Chief Mate Chen said.
Zhao Wanshan actually listened to Huang Ji's suggestion and said, If the thief gets the door card of the bodyguard, he can pass the access control. I'll arrange for someone to watch it 24 hours a day.
Huang Jizhi has reached this point, and everyone has not continued this topic.
After returning that night, Huang Ji sewed a uniform in the cabin, and it was coming to an end.
Awesome, how could you use such a simple tool to sew the uniforms of England customs officers? Old Wang said with emotion.
He witnessed with his own eyes that Huang Ji asked the crew for a few sets of sailor suits, as well as scissors and needles, and then went to the tourists to buy a few suits.
Then it took two days to sew a set of customs uniforms, whether it is hats, clothes, pants, gloves, full of details.
No one is surprised by this, after all, this is a man who can hand-paint fingerprints from memory.
What is a uniform? The cruise ship has come to London not once or twice, and the customs are familiar with it. I chat and laugh with the captain. I will also ask who will check tomorrow. Huang Ji said.
I understand, what about the two of us? Old Wang said.
Huang Ji said: Tomorrow morning, you two will stay on the ninth floor, here! Here are the passports and visas.
Pharaoh took it and saw two sets of strangers' documents.
Pretend, I got it from the thief I was looking for. At 9:30 tomorrow, you stand at the door of the suite on the ninth floor near door B, holding your documents and pretending to chat there... After that... Huang Ji said the plan listen to them.
The two of them understood, and Old Wang asked, It seems feasible, but does the thief really steal at that time and just get caught? Will the customs officers on the ninth floor really go up to help?
The thief is so greedy, he will definitely go to the tenth floor. Huang Ji smiled and said, As for the customs officer, I will also ask him to help.
...
Early the next morning, Huang Ji first met with pineapple rolls.
What are you going to use to stun Zhang Rui? Pineapple Roll asked.
Huang Ji patted the bag on his waist, revealing a big wrench.
The pineapple roll hummed. From upstairs, the customs officers could already be seen getting on the boat, and they didn't bother to ask how this guy got out.
At 9:40, he went to steal on time, while Zhang Rui chatted with people on the first floor deck.
It was almost ten o'clock that Zhang Rui would come back, and at this time he was knocked out. Even if Huang Ji was caught and confessed to him, he would have already disembarked.
Even if he is not caught, the pineapple roll will let him get caught. After all, he has no intention of sharing money with this reckless man.
Anyway, after I finish this vote, I will wash my hands in a golden basin. Pineapple Roll thought to himself.
Then you stay here, we will act separately. Seeing that the customs officers had already gone upstairs, Pineapple Roll said, and went downstairs to deal with the inspection first.
Huang Ji smiled and separated from him, and changed his clothes on a public balcony.
After that, he pretended to hang out among the floors.
Every time he was about to meet a real customs officer, he would turn half a second earlier.
This is a perfect card point, all customs officers see him, they are just a back. Because he was wearing a uniform, he thought it was his colleague.
It can be said that if there is only Huang Ji himself, he has some way to avoid inspection.
However, Old Wang and Lin Li have no such ability.
The two of them stood on the ninth floor, in front of the suite near door B, chatting with their documents in hand.
From a distance, I saw Door A more than ten meters away, walked into an English customs officer, and followed the order, knocking on the door one by one to check.
This kind of thing, the crew has already notified all the tourists, so the tourists have already been prepared with passports and visas, and they will be taken out as soon as they knock on the door, and the progress is very fast.
The young customs officer caught a glimpse of Lao Wang and Lin Li standing not far away chatting, and Lao Wang also said something familiar: Hi!
The young customs caught a glimpse of the documents in their hands, raised his hand with a smile, responded with a sentence, and continued to check in order.
There were forty rooms on the ninth floor, and when he was halfway through, there was a commotion upstairs.
Stop! Don't run!
That was Zhao Wanshan, who led the people to the pineapple roll.
As the security manager, he was reminded by Huang Ji and decided to send someone to watch the surveillance, and he took the two of them to stay in the vacant room opposite Zhang Rui for one night.
The super luxurious suite on the tenth floor can be described as the ultimate enjoyment, and he is also indirectly selfish.
I thought nothing would happen, but the surveillance department reported that the cameras on the tenth floor were blocked.
He was shocked, stared through the cat's eyes, and sure enough, he saw the pineapple roll soon after, pried the door and locked it into Zhang Rui's room.
Fuck! When Pineapple Roll came out of the room, the opposite door suddenly opened, and Zhao Wanshan swooped out with the three of them.
This almost scared the pineapple roll to death!
Finally caught you! Zhao Wanshan just took out his stick and hit him.
Pineapple Roll knows that he can't be caught. Fortunately, he is wearing a mask. As long as he can get rid of this group of people and hide in his room, he will be fine, and he can get off the boat in a few minutes!
So he resisted extremely fiercely, rushed away from the crew like a trapped beast, and ran downstairs.
At the same time, the customs officer on the ninth floor heard the movement.
He didn't intend to be more concerned, but at this moment, a pure London accent came out of nowhere: James! Stop him! Thief! On the stairs... Jimmy!
The young customs, whose name was James Maddice, was called Jimmy by those he knew well, which was his nickname, which was also an abbreviation of his first name.
Hearing the shout, Jimmy ran out of the corridor immediately, and saw a masked thief rushing down the stairs from the tenth floor.
Hey! Jimmy rushed forward bravely, grabbing the thief's arm.
The thief pulled with all his strength and ran down desperately, and the two of them entangled all the way downstairs.
At the same time, Huang Ji, in uniform, knocked on the door of the tour room on the ninth floor that had not been inspected.
Hi, my name is Billy, England Customs...
The tourists were very cooperative and took out the documents they had already prepared.
After being checked, they put their documents in a packed suitcase.
It only took Huang Ji a few minutes to check the rest of the rooms, and the ship was about to dock at the port.
At gate B on the ninth floor, Old Wang looked at Huang Ji and exclaimed, After calling his name, he actually went to see Yi Yong.
Huang Ji said with a smile: Sometimes people who stand on the sidelines are not unwilling to help, but have no motivation. If there are many people there, people will think 'there will be others to help, I don't need me'.
If everyone thinks this way, they will end up watching.
At this time, if you want to ask for help from others, don't say 'who is going to help?', but directly name them.
When a person is named, he has to help if he doesn't want to. Unless he is a completely selfish person, he will help if he can.
What's more, there are not many people who know his name on this ship. He thinks that his colleagues are calling for his help. How could he not go?
The running pineapple roll, because the crew was chasing after him, no matter how desperate it was, it was useless. On the third floor, he was surrounded by more than a dozen crew members and was easily captured.
Jimmy clapped his hands, seeing that it was getting late, and many of his colleagues had finished checking, remembering that he had not finished checking the ninth floor, so he hurried up.
When he walked in from door A on the ninth floor, he saw a person in uniform, who seemed to be his colleague, walked out from door B and hurried downstairs.
Jimmy is a little weird, who is that?
But he didn't think much, time was running out, and he hurried to check the remaining tourists.
However, when he knocked on the door, tourists all said: Why, didn't you check it just now? I have put away my passport.
Jimmy was a little confused. He couldn't understand Chinese. Fortunately, some of the tourists knew English and explained it to him.
Have you checked? Jimmy frowned. Whoever checked where was assigned, how could it overlap?
However, after asking more than a dozen tourists in a row, they all said that they had been inspected. The tourists were talking nonsense, while Lao Wang and Lin Li were mixed in the crowd, and they also followed suit.
Among them, Lin Li said in English: His name is Billy. When you went to catch the thief, he also inspected your area. I also chatted with him. He said that you helped him on top of the shift, and this time he also checked for you. It's over.
Jimmy suddenly realized that it was Billy's guy.
Billy is a newcomer, and he doesn't know many people. Last time, he was the only one who was willing to help him on duty.
It seems that he helped himself to check all this film, and after thinking about it, it was getting late. Anyway, if someone wants to get off the boat and go to the city to play, they have to check it again when they leave the dock.
I'm sorry to disturb you! Jimmy said, and hurried away.
When he was about to reach the first floor, he happened to see Billy assembled on the deck.
He looked at Billy and thought: This kid is so fast.
At this moment, Billy just happened to look over, and the two looked at each other.
Billy just looked at him inadvertently, meaningless.
But because of preconceived ideas, Jimmy thought that the other party's eyes meant: Brother, why don't you come down soon? I have checked for you!
In response, Jimmy couldn't help but smiled knowingly and gave a look: 'Thanks! ’
Billy was a few dozen meters away from him, and when he saw him smiling, he naturally smiled back.
Jimmy came to the deck leisurely, the two smiled at each other, and said nothing in front of the leader.
After they were all together, they got into their own boats.
Of course, Jimmy wouldn't deliberately ask about some trivial matters, but he felt that his colleagues didn't call this newcomer at a gathering before, and he was very sorry.
He asked, In the evening, Lemon Bar, are you going?
Go. Jimmy, you were very aggressive when you caught the thief just now! Billy was a newcomer, and his colleague invited him out to play, so it was impossible not to go.
Of course! You're quite clever too.
It's a pity I'm far away, otherwise I'd have gone up and caught him too.
The two were not on the same channel from beginning to end.
A few minutes later, the boat docked, and some people didn't bother to disembark at all, they just wanted to play on the cruise.
Some tourists want to visit London and then disembark one after another.
Zhao Wanshan sent someone to grab the pineapple roll and guarded it at the disembarkation point, just because the pineapple roll insisted that he had an accomplice.
Hey, Manager Zhao! The three of them walked uprightly and greeted Zhao Wanshan.
Zhao Wanshan smiled and said, Xiaohua, get off the boat and play?
Yeah, eh, who is this? Huang Ji pointed at the pineapple roll.
Zhao Wanshan smiled and said, The thief, finally caught me.
It's amazing, then I'll go down first! Huang Ji beckoned and walked away.
During the whole process, Pineapple Roll did not recognize him. Whether it was his voice or appearance, when Huang Ji came into contact with him, it was different from now.
What's more, in his eyes, Huang Ji is also a thief, how could he be chatting and laughing with the security manager?
Where is your accomplice? Zhao Wanshan said angrily when he saw that no tourists disembarked.
The pineapple roll was stunned and said: Really, you can check again, he must also be a tourist!
No, I also showed you the tourist list. There is no such person. Don't bite. You are the only thief on the boat. All the property that was lost by the owner has been found in your room. What are you quibbling about!
The owner and the thief correspond, and all the things lost by the owner on the ship are in the pineapple roll.
Everything was recovered and returned to the owner. Whether there was an accomplice or not, the boat police didn't care at all.
I can't figure out the pineapple roll, why are the big living people gone? Why can't I find it in the tourist list?
You know, even himself, as a professional thief, every time he can steal something on a cruise ship, he has to buy a ticket and apply for a visa first, and spend more than 10,000 'capital'.
Even if he was beaten to death, he would never have imagined that there would be people who didn't even have a ticket at all, swaggering onto the boat, and swaggeringly getting off the boat...
After getting off the boat, Huang Ji accurately found an unattended small door, turned over the window twice, and led Old Wang and Lin Li around, bypassing the inspection of the pier.
Compared with the cruise ship, the dock area is huge, the trails are vertical and horizontal, and the guards are not so strict.
Huang Ji is familiar with this place, it is like his own home.
Easily found the loophole and left the dock.
Walking on the streets of East London, Pharaoh is extremely excited, this is a perfect smuggling.
The whole process, they did not leave any records.
Next, it's up to me to arrange! Old Wang laughed.
Huang Ji said: All of you will join London. For safety, you must be ready?
Of course, in order to inform the comrades all over the world this time and bring everyone together again, that person deliberately announced in May that he will hold a comeback concert in London. Pharaoh stared at a huge propaganda poster in the distance. .
Who is it? Lin Li looked over and was stunned when he saw the person on the poster.
Pharaoh said mysteriously: Michael Jackson!
