Mind Reader III

After the evening banquet started, both Shen Yan and Chris stayed in the corner.Shen Yan had other goals, but Chris didn't like this kind of occasion, so the two of them chatted happily on the sidelines.But no matter how small and transparent Chris is, he is still a member of the royal family, there are still many people who come over to greet him, and even Shen Yan is honored.Shen Yan only said that he was from the Shen family in country C, but he didn't say what he was doing. Some people in the business world knew about the Shen family in country C, and they got close to Shen Yan on the contrary.

It was fine for these people to get close, but after a while, Herman actually ran over.Chris frowned as soon as he saw Herman, but Herman didn't even look at him, and ran over to talk to Shen Yan, and even talked about Master, making Shen Yan's head grow bigger.While he was dealing with Herman, when he looked up, he saw Charlie, who was in the crowd, was also looking at them, his eyes swept around the three of them, with a preoccupied look on his face, and was caught by Prince Will. After calling, he turned around.

Shen Yan inadvertently scanned around the banquet hall, but he didn't find Gu Lei. He also found it strange that Gu Lei was 1.9 meters tall, and he was not small, even among Europeans and Americans who were naturally tall. Now, since it's convenient to monitor Charlie, he must be in the banquet hall, but Shen Yan didn't find anyone, so it's too well hidden, right?Or does he know how to shrink bones and make himself smaller?

Although he didn't find Gu Lei at this glance, Shen Yan found that there were already many cameras taking pictures of him.The reason is of course the bastard prince next to him. As a news maker, no matter where Heman goes, there are people who follow him like chicken blood. Now that Heman is having a hot fight with an unfamiliar face (?), the media will naturally not Let Shen Yan go.

Shen Yan didn't want to attract the attention of the media, so he found an excuse and ran to the bathroom to hide for a while.In order to be quiet, he went to the third floor on purpose. When he was hiding in the cubicle and scrolling through Weibo, there was a low voice outside.

"... How would I know... Didn't I already give him money to let him go?...Of course the things are hidden, how can I make trouble for myself... My cousin's birthday is this week, and I can't get away at all...You are here This? What are you doing here?!... I told you that I didn't bring anything with me..."

Then there was a long silence, and the voice said again, "Okay, you can find someone to get it yourself, but you have to help me deal with Chris... In the storage room of the school music room, the innermost one in the row of cabinets on the left, I Put it at the bottom... I will look for you later, do you live in the Butterfly Garden?... No, don't come over, I will wait for you at the fountain behind the Butterfly Garden after the banquet, and I got a call."

After finishing speaking, the voice sighed heavily, washed his hands and went out.Shen Yan left the cubicle speechlessly. Doesn't this person come to the toilet to make such secret calls first to see if there is anyone in the toilet?

This voice was exactly Charlie. Although Shen Yan couldn't tell what he was talking about in the beginning of the conversation, he heard it more and more clearly later on.During the day, when I heard that he lived in Norton Manor a few days ago, Charlie mentioned it intentionally or unintentionally, and looked at Shen Yan and the three of them with that kind of look at the banquet, plus the secret phone call just now, it's hard not to guess. .

The thing Charlie mentioned is most likely the music box that Shen Yan and the others were looking for, but from what he said, they found that this music box was not only used by him to frame Chris, it should be given to the person on the phone, and That person is now in the manor, and lives in the Butterfly Garden like Shen Yan, and the two made an appointment to meet at the fountain behind the Butterfly Garden at night.

Who is this guy?Could it be the third-party force that was previously suspected of wanting to get the music box?What deal did Charlie have with that man?What are they going to do to Chris?

Shen Yan held his breath, called Song Qi, and told Song Qi who had sneaked into the school about the hiding place that Charlie mentioned just now, and then returned to the hall.Chris didn't know where he went, and Herman was surrounded by a group of people who didn't know what they were talking about. Shen Yan called to ask where Chris was, and then found him on the balcony on the second floor.

"I was not here just now, did something happen? Did someone come to see you?"

Chris shook his head. "I've been here since you left. Nobody's been here. What's wrong?"

"I heard Charlie calling, and it seems that he wants to trouble you." Shen Yan blocked the news about the music box, "He still has a helper, I don't know who that person is, but that person also lives in the Butterfly Garden, I have to Find a way to find that person."

"The guest list is with the butler, I'll go get it from him..."

"No need," Shen Yan grabbed Chris who was about to rush out, "We don't know what they are going to do now, so we can't startle the enemy. I'll find a way to get the list. Don't place an order tonight. Go back to the banquet hall and tell them Grace stay together... oh don't look like that Chris, I know you don't like crowded places, but right now your safety is the most important thing, you have to stay in the most visible place, go talk to Grace, or You can go to the queen, the crown prince, or even Herman. Remember, you must stay in the most conspicuous place until I come back to find you, and don't leave the banquet hall with anyone, you understand?"

Shen Yan left only after receiving Chris's guarantee. During the day, Shen Yan had already secretly located the cameras of the three buildings in the manor. There are not many cameras here, and most of them are installed in some public places and main roads in the manor. In fact, only the lobby on the first floor has a camera inside the building, and other places are completely blind spots.

Shen Yan returned to the Butterfly Garden alone. At this moment, the Butterfly Garden was deserted, except for a few servants waiting on the first floor.The people who will live in the Butterfly Garden tonight are mainly business people from afar, and they are all in the banquet hall to connect with each other at this time, which is also a good time for Shen Yan to act.

Of course he would not go to the housekeeper to get any list, not to mention that the housekeeper would definitely not give it, even if he got it, he could only look at the name, which was worthless to Shen Yan.

The fountain is behind the butterfly garden, and there is a small flower shed next to it, which can be seen only by looking out of the window, so even if Charlie made an appointment to meet at the fountain, he probably wouldn't really be standing at the fountain.The flower shed can hide from people’s eyes and ears, but the anti-reconnaissance effect is not good. After entering at night, it is dark and you can’t see the outside situation at all. If someone suddenly comes over at this time, or hides outside the flower shed to eavesdrop, the The people who can only be caught without a fight.

Shen Yan went to look around the fountain, walked through the short bushes next to the fountain, and walked along the path to a small forest. There was no surveillance on this path, the small forest was hidden enough but accessible in all directions, it was a good place to plot.However, the other side of the fountain, that is, under the wall of the building is not bad. There are taller plants to cover it, but the space is a bit narrow. It is estimated that His Royal Highness will not be wronged to squeeze himself into the bushes.

Shen Yan looked up at the windows on this side of the building again. This building has four floors in total, the 2nd to 4th floors are all guest rooms, and each floor has four rooms facing this side.When Charlie said that he was waiting at the fountain, it should mean that he called the person when he arrived at the fountain, and the person came out to join him after confirming that Charlie had arrived at the fountain. After all, now everyone does not know how long the banquet will be. .Is there any way to confirm that Charlie has reached the fountain?Naturally, that person's room can directly see the fountain, so the suspect should be someone who lives in these 2 rooms on the 4nd to 12th floors on this side.

Shen Yan chose a good location to install a miniature night vision camera, and buried a bug under a bench in the grove.After he was done, he started to check the 12 rooms one by one.The rooms on this side are not suites, they are all independent single rooms. Only one room on the fourth floor is occupied, and there are 9 suspects in total.Shen Yan found some people's passports and driver's licenses in the room, remembered the identities of the nine suspects, installed cameras and bugs in these rooms, and then went back to his room to take out the computer connection signal.

At this time Song Qi called and told him that the music box was found and they were about to call it a day.

"Come on, now is not the time to call it a day," Shen Yan hastily stopped him, "Has the person who tampered with the monitoring been caught?"

"Caught him. He said that someone gave him money to do things. According to his description, the man was a tall and thin American. The number to contact him has been invalidated. It should be a temporary number that cannot be traced. He is only responsible for During that period of time, the monitoring was switched, and I didn’t know anything else, let alone what it had to do with Charlie and Chris. After the incident, he took the money and left. He originally wanted to go back to his hometown, but his girlfriend was in the capital. , and he followed to the capital."

"American?" There were 9 Americans in the 7 rooms, and it wasn't necessarily the person who came forward to contact the surveillance personnel.

Shen Yan said to Song Qi, "How long will it take you to drive here now? Bring that man and the music box to the manor."

"Now?!" Song Qi was about to go crazy, "Do you know what time it is? It takes five hours to drive to the manor from here, okay!"

"Then come here immediately, don't let that person run away. Also, pay attention to whether there are suspicious people in the school, and don't let people find you."

After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone without waiting for Song Qi to answer. Not long after, the phone rang again. It was Gu Lei.

"There's something about Charlie. He's making trouble for Chris in the banquet hall, and Herman got involved."

Looking for trouble in the ballroom?Is it an accident?Premeditated?Still too impatient?No, with Herman here, maybe the situation is more complicated.

Shen Yan had no choice but to return to the banquet hall, and when he arrived, the turmoil had passed, but Chris did not leave, but continued to stay in a conspicuous place in the banquet hall as Shen Yan said.When Shen Yan saw him, he was with Princess Grace, but his expression was not very good.

Shen Yan went over to chat for a few words, then went to an unobtrusive corner of the banquet hall with Chris and Gu Lei, and asked what happened just now.It turned out that after Shen Yan left, Chris went to talk to Grace. It was rare for Chris to take the initiative to talk to someone. Princess Grace, who liked Chris very much, introduced him to some of her classmates.Although Chris is a little transparent and not very talkative, he is handsome, and a few little girls who don't have a heart like him very much, so it can be regarded as a pleasant chat.

After chatting for a while, Charlie came over, pretending to be talking to Chris, secretly but unkindly to hook up with these underage girls.Charlie is notorious for being flirtatious. Several girls like to talk to Charlie, so they gradually left Chris in the cold.But one of them, a little girl named Phoebe, didn't know why she didn't like Charlie, so she stayed away from Charlie's group with Chris, and the two of them ate snacks and chatted alone.

But at this moment, Herman hurried over to Chris and asked where Shen Yan had gone, Charlie also came over, and asked what they were talking about with a friendly look.It's a pity that Herman didn't give him face, and accidentally pushed Charlie. Charlie pretended not to stand still, fell down, and poured a glass of wine in Chris's direction.

It's just that Chris was vaccinated by Shen Yan before, so he was already on guard against Charlie. When he saw Charlie pouring wine on him, he turned his body and avoided it.Most of the glass of wine was fed to the carpet, and a small part was splashed on Phoebe. The little girl took a step back with an exclamation, but stepped on Herman's foot.

This series is just a small gesture, but the butterfly effect it brings is far more than that.Seeing that the wine hadn't been spilled on Chris, Charlie's face was not very good-looking, but Herman thought that Charlie was trying to splash himself, and his face immediately sank.Phoebe's exclamation just now made all the girls around Charlie look this way. Seeing the tense atmosphere between the two princes, the girls hurriedly pulled Phoebe away, and took Charlie and Herman away. Man is left there alone.But at this time, the little transparent Chris was pulled from behind. Seeing that the person who pulled him was Gu Lei, Chris followed Gu Lei silently and exited the line of sight surrounded by the media and people around him. To Grace.

Seeing the embarrassing atmosphere and the media's cameras already targeting him, Charlie wanted to pretend that nothing happened.It's a pity that the person he met was Herman. Regardless of whether there were people watching or not, Heman immediately said unkind words to Charlie, and said that he was an old cow who wanted to eat young grass, and actually wanted to hook up with his little cousin's classmate.But he didn't have a chance to say a few more words, so Prince Will came over.Herman still had a bit of brains, so he didn't confront this formidable uncle, gave Charlie two winks, and retreated on his own.

It took less than 3 minutes before and after this small accident, but Gu Lei, who was watching from the side, could see it clearly.From the perspective of others, it seemed that Herman pushed Charlie first, causing Charlie to drink, and the two quarreled.In fact, Charlie's target was Chris from the beginning, no matter how much he stumbled and splashed wine from his angle, he shouldn't go towards Chris, it was obviously intentional.

"He wanted to leave Chris alone," Shen Yan explained after listening. "In the beginning, he came to talk to Chris in order to make Chris, who was surrounded by girls, feel neglected. After the cold, he would definitely run to the corner alone. But today, Chris didn’t do that. Not only did Charlie fail to achieve his goal, but he attracted Herman instead. Charlie may have wanted to separate Chris and Herman at first, But Herman just pushed him, and he wanted to pour the wine on Chris, so Chris had to change clothes, and there was a chance of getting an order."

Gu Lei asked, "Why did he leave Chris alone? Do you still want to play the Norton Manor trick?"

"It shouldn't be so. He has a helper this time. He said on the phone that he would let that helper deal with Chris. I don't know if he wanted that helper to trouble Chris after Chris left the order."

"Then shall we do it first?"

"No, at least they haven't prepared to do anything before the banquet is over," Shen Yan said to Chris, "Go back to your room after the banquet, no matter what happens tonight, don't leave the Rose Garden Scope. It’s best to find a way to keep someone by your side, and leave the rest to me.”
