    John laughed and took out a bunch of keys: "The first gift is the detective agency. If you are willing to be a detective, you can keep it. If you don't want to be a detective, you can also sell the detective agency."

    Liang Xi was taken aback: "John, your health is not bad enough to retire."

    John didn't answer Liang Xi's question, and pushed the key in front of Liang Xi, saying: "The detective agency is yours now, I have already contacted the lawyer, and he will complete the formalities for you. After the formalities are completed, the lawyer will give you  You have a check for five thousand pounds for the daily expenses of the detective agency. Whether you can make money depends on your ability."

    Liang Xi heard a small question: "Why did the lawyer give me five thousand pounds?"

    John replied: "Because the lawyer owes me 5,000 pounds, let him repay the money by the way in this name."

    Liang Xi nodded, that's why.  Believe in your thigh.

    John pushed the car key on the table to Liang Xi: "As a detective, you definitely need a means of transportation. That car belongs to you too."

    John thought that Liang Xi would be very happy, but Liang Xi drank a cup of tea in silence before accepting the key, with an unpredictable expression on his face.  This is self-binding.  It was originally a prank to play John, but I didn't expect that the last clown turned out to be himself.  The old man wouldn't think that he would calculate him, so he turned around and tricked himself, right?

    Mary was not involved in the conversation between the two men, she heard here that it was time to bake the cake, so she went to the kitchen to get busy.  Seeing Mary entering the living room and going to the kitchen, John hesitated to speak.  Liang Xi noticed something unusual and asked, "Do you want a divorce?"

    The detective's brain hole is like this, not only strange, but also jumping.  But John didn't refute. After thinking for a while, he said, "If you can have dinner with Mary once a month, I think she will be very happy."

    Liang Xi said: "30 times a month is fine. But your name is John Charles, not John Bill Gates."

    John laughed: "Haha!"

    This is insinuating. Recently, John has often been in contact with an old friend named Matthew, and they all eat out, sometimes for a whole day.  Coupled with the fact that the detective agency and the car were given to Liang Xi, Liang Xi speculated that something happened to John recently.  In his mind, Liang Xi listed John's possible changes, terminal illness?  Impossible, because Mary is a retired doctor. Without Mary's persecution, John would not go for a physical examination. John is definitely the last person to know about the terminal illness.  In addition to terminal illness, the next worst thing may be a marriage change.

    John did not deny Liang Xi's proposed marriage change, which made Liang Xi quite worried.  He knew Mary's love for John.  For example, Mary would rather John live like a vegetable, busy serving and taking care of John every day, than John die first.  The change of marriage hit Mary harder than John's death.

    However, John is a chicken thief, and he did not admit the marriage change, which made Liang Xi unable to express his thoughts on this matter.  Mary came out with cupcakes and the two men chatted about the case again.  Mary sat in one of the rocking chairs, knitting a sweater and listening to two men talking, and these were the happiest moments of her life so far

    Liang Xi bought half a barrel of gasoline from a neighbor, hugged Mary, got into the car, and drove to his residence.  Liang Xi lived in an apartment on Lump Road, not too far from the university and the detective agency.

    Rump Road, also known as Apartment Road, is a well-known apartment-type residential community in London.  The main renters are white-collar workers and students.  Liang Xi lives in Building 19, Room 2102. The room is not big, with a total area of ??more than 50 square meters.  One kitchen, one bathroom, one living room, one room.  The things at home are very simple, second-hand computers, beds, tables, chairs, wardrobes.  There is no coffee table or sofa in the living room, and a stack of plastic stools is placed in the corner to accommodate possible visitors.

    Liang Xi doesn't have many clothes, summer T-shirts, jeans, and sneakers.  Winter hoodies, jackets, thermal underwear, jeans and sneakers.  In spring and autumn, decide how to dress according to the temperature of the day.  The most expensive ones were the suits Mary bought for Liang Xi after he went to university, a tailor-made suit from an Italian handmade tailor, and a pair of leather shoes worth up to a thousand pounds.  Liang Xi only wore this suit once when he accompanied John to Belgium to handle a case.

    After returning home, Liang Xi boiled water first, took his underwear and T-shirt to take a shower.  After taking a shower, the water was turned on, I made a cup of tea, sat in front of the computer and began to write my resume, preparing to apply for a job.  It is impossible for a detective to be a detective. No kidding, if you are a detective, you will really starve to death on the street.  The only thing that can survive in the detective industry is private detectives. Their daily work is to conduct background checks on targets, investigations of accidents, etc. at the request of employers.  Strictly speaking, private detectives no longer belong to the category of traditional detectives.

    As the hometown of Sherlock Holmes in the novel, London has a surprising number of detective fans.  In order to realize their detective dreams, many young people will open their own detective agencies.  Normal cases are investigated by the police,??Only when the victim or the victim's family is dissatisfied with the results of the police investigation will the help of the detective be sought.  There are also dignitaries like Earl Davis, who only seek the help of detectives if they don't want to alert the police and the media.

    There are not many bad guys, and the police snatched the biggest piece of cake. It is impossible to satisfy the huge crowd of detectives with a little bread crumbs.  Ten years ago, with the popularization of surveillance in urban areas, the improvement of police technical strength, and the improvement of the legal awareness of the whole people, detectives have become a very unpopular profession.  In addition, young people of this generation rarely like Sherlock Holmes's slow-paced detective novels. Not only are there no traditional detective agencies in the streets and alleys of London, even detectives are often mocked and ridiculed in TV talk shows.

    The best choice is to be a police detective. A police detective is selected from the police, so you have to be a policeman first.

    There are three categories of police officers in the UK.  The first category is regular police, and the second category is community police, both of which require physical training and testing. Liang Xi was born with slightly flat feet, which does not affect his life, but his feet have poor endurance and are not suitable for endurance sports such as long-distance running and mountain climbing.  Unable to pass the physical fitness test in the manner of training.

    The third category is volunteer police, which refers to police officers who have full-time jobs and use their spare time to perform police duties.  Volunteer police do not have high requirements for physical fitness, and there is also a monthly subsidy.  But the problem is that you first need to have a full-time job. Detectives do not belong to full-time jobs, and are classified as individual industrial and commercial households or corporate partners.

    Graduation means unemployment, the future is in a fog, and you can't see where you are going?

    Liang Xi didn't care what happened, went online to enter the talent market, and began to send resumes.  It doesn't look at the major or the position, only the salary.  Whether it is an enterprise or a public office, if you see a position with a monthly salary of more than 3,000 pounds, you will submit your resume.  Cast the net widely and catch more fish. Presumably there will always be a few stupid personnel or bosses who will take a fancy to me.

    After spending half an hour submitting his resume, Liang Xi picked up the book and read it, completely relaxed after waiting for the score after the college entrance examination.  Now that what humans can do has been done, the next thing to do is to depend on God's will.

    However, Liang Xi didn't have any luck skills in reincarnation, God thinks that most bosses still have IQ.  In the next week, Liang Xi didn't even receive half of the application calls, and he even wondered if he had filled in the wrong number.  This is not a joke, he has been calculated with probability.  The reason why electronic fraud is so rampant is not because of how clever the scammers are, but because of the large population base, there are always a few scammers in the percentage ratio.  Inferring from this logic, at least one of my 120 resumes should have found the right person.

    After receiving a call from the lawyer, Liang Xi and the lawyer met in the coffee shop downstairs of the detective agency, and quickly completed the formalities. The Rose Detective Agency and the five thousand pounds were officially handed over to Liang Xi by John.  After a week of waiting for the results of the application, during which time he ate food at John's house many times, Liang Xi decided that he could not hang himself on a tree.  So I decided to reissue my resume at the detective agency and wait for the recruitment results again.

    During the meeting with the lawyer, Liang Xi asked and learned that the ¡ê5,000 was not the money owed to John by the lawyer at all, but John's own money.  But John told the lawyer to hand over 5,000 pounds to Liang Xi in the name of arrears.  Liang Xi was quite puzzled by this. On the one hand, during the dinner this week, Liang Xi did not find any signs of marriage between John and Mary.  On the one hand, even if the marriage changes, the relationship between Liang Xi and John and Mary will not change, so why give yourself five thousand pounds?

    ? Called and asked, John replied: "If you don't need it, you can return it to me."

    Liang Xi immediately hung up the phone, and finally withdrew some money, want to get it back?  no way
