Municipal council meeting.

Listen to Bucklow's various reasons for opposing the "co-op project."

Lu Ming seemed to be thinking about other things, as if his mind was wandering.

Bucklow believes that the "co-op apartment project" is actually highly toxic honey. It tastes good at first, but after ten or twenty years, whether it is the ambiguity of property rights or property management problems, it may It will become a serious social problem in the future, especially if a lot of such apartments are built.

Obviously he came prepared this time, did his homework, and consulted many experts who had opposing opinions.

"Qianxing, you said last time that property rights are very clear, but you only use our current legal concepts. Legal standards change very quickly. Qianxing, you should understand this very well."

Gao Wangshi smiled and said: "Chief Member, I think if we go by this, we don't have to do anything. No matter what policy we pursue now, it may be considered a bad policy in the future, right? ”

Bucklo smiled: "Okay, let's do this. There is no point in continuing the debate. Let's just show our hands and vote, okay?"

"Those who object, raise your hands." Bucklow raised his hands first.

The second person to raise his hand was Dong Wenquan.

Sherlock was hesitant and kept secretly looking at Lu Ming. It wasn't until Buckloo looked over with a slightly stern look that Sherlock sighed softly and slowly raised his hand.

"Okay, let's put this plan on hold for the time being and let's not vote in Parliament!" Bucklow nodded with satisfaction.

Looking at Lu Ming again, Bucklo said with a smile: "Qianxing, it's good to have enthusiasm for doing things, but every one of our proposals involves the well-being of hundreds of thousands of Beiguan citizens, so we still have to be cautious."

Lu Ming smiled and said nothing.

……

The Empire State Building, the 99th floor is the tower restaurant and observation point, and the 70th to 98th floors are the Empire Hotel. After all, there are not so many top companies stationed in it now. It is the wave of building high-rise buildings, and super companies will build their own For skyscrapers, weaker companies are reluctant to pay high rents. Tenants entering the Empire State Building are mostly large and medium-sized companies. They have many choices. The number of leasing in the Empire State Building's office area has never exceeded 7%. ten.

There are observation decks outside the hotel rooms from the 90th to 98th floors of the Empire State Building, where you can enjoy the beautiful scenery of the blue sea, blue sky and the intertwined glass curtain buildings in the city. Therefore, the room fee is extremely high, and it is also the place where dignitaries from all over the Empire come. My favorite place in the East China Sea.

Today, Lu Ming is standing in the VIP elevator, holding a very simple black key tag with the suffix of 9802.

The elevator attendants on duty 24 hours a day in the VIP elevator are all blond and blue-eyed girls wearing beautiful uniforms like stewardesses. They are known to have quick hands and the first thing they see is the key tag number of the VIP.

The words 9802 surprised the blonde, and she even wanted to ask the young man if it was a counterfeit key tag.

It is strange enough that people from Zhongzhou are eligible to go to the 98th floor, let alone Room 1 or 2.

However, the longer she served here, the more she came to know that the imperial dignitaries had too many unknown secrets. Some of the things she could see were already absurd, let alone the secrets behind the scenes.

So, no matter how weird you see something here, you should treat it as if you can't see it, let alone talk to anyone, otherwise, it may cause disaster.

The elevator dinged, and the door slowly opened. Outside, there was already a beautiful and smiling housekeeper waiting. A blonde girl wearing a red bud hat, a beautiful bow tie, and a pale purple skirt and black stockings. Her temperament and appearance were even better than those in the elevator. The waiter is obviously two levels higher.

The elevator attendant was relieved, bowed deeply and saw the distinguished guest off the elevator.

The long and beautiful legs in black stockings are walking confidently, and the red flower-embellished high heels click on the thick carpet.

Lu Ming felt that if she took off her high heels, she would definitely be a little shorter than him, but her legs would probably be about the same length.

This figure is almost comparable to Pamela's, but her legs are a little rounder. From my own aesthetic point of view, they are a bit thicker. I still prefer Pamela's slender and long legs.

Then she shook her head. If Pamela knew that she dared to compare other women's figures with hers, she would definitely pinch herself.

The magnificent and wide wooden door was slowly pushed open.

Royal Suite 9802, the entrance is a luxurious scene like a banquet living room, and there are stairs spiraling up. It is a cross-story super luxury suite. There are probably twenty or thirty rooms upstairs and downstairs. From the second floor Direct access to the Tower Restaurant is via the VIP corridor.

"Sir, my name is Shirley. From today on, I will be in the secretarial office here! I was the final winner among the one hundred competitors in the special supermodel class of the Royal Etiquette School in the Imperial City. But if you don't, sir, If you are satisfied, I will recommend other candidates among the top five to you."

The beautiful girl bowed deeply again.

The Internal Records Room... Lu Ming was startled. It is a special name for the royal family. Of course, it is not really called the Internal Records Room, but a very rare royal noun. I feel that it is translated into the internal records of the language of the previous life. The recording room is very apt.

Roughly speaking, she was the administrative secretary and maid of a distinguished male figure in the royal family. It was also possible that she also served as a lover.

This old lady like me can really give herself eye drops.

Because she always comes to Donghai once every month or two, room 9802 is the long-term private room for her and her husband in Donghai. Because the payment is from the royal financial institution, from the hotel operator's point of view, this is naturally The long private room of the royal family.

Mrs. Windsor said that she only comes to Donghai once every month or two. This suite is empty and will be used by you from now on.

Sister, I have already had enough of living there. If I come to Donghai in the future, I will arrange food, accommodation and transportation for you. Brother, just help me arrange it.

Lu Ming was still a little curious about this place. This time, he could do something with this room, so he came to take a look.

Of course, I called Mrs. Windsor in advance and asked her if there were any personal items in the room and if there were any rooms that I couldn't move.

But I didn’t expect that this old lady had arranged everything for her in the “internal record office”.

I don’t know if he is a spy.

Lu Ming subconsciously came up with this idea, but he also knew that Mrs. Windsor was too shrewd to play such a low-end game. Her current arrangement was just to show her kindness to her younger brother, and she would not know how to do it for the time being. Trying to control yourself will only be self-defeating.

"Well, there's no need to change! You're fine." Lu Ming looked at Shirley and nodded. The royal suite with dozens of rooms did need a butler who was familiar with the situation and received special training.

It seems that Lady Windsor selected the best for herself from a school that specializes in cultivating top service talents.

Shirley's blue eyes flashed with a hint of relief. After all, the salary here is too high. For her from a poor family, it is an astronomical figure. If she wins in the cruel and fierce competition, but is eventually dismissed by her employer, it will really be a big deal. It is the cruelest tragedy.

However, she has known how superior her innate capital is since she was a child, but for the first time, she was picked here and there like a selected commodity. In the end, she had to be looked at as an item by her employer from Central China before waiting for his answer. At that time, I felt a little sad for no reason.

But now that the dust has settled, it seems that everything was worth it.

"Sir, there are ten maids working under me, but the maid room area is isolated from here. Only when my husband is not here, I will unlock it and let them clean it, or when my husband and guests compare Sometimes, I will also choose appropriate candidates to serve Mr. and his guests." Shirley's tone became much lighter.

Lu Ming nodded: "I will have a few guests in a while. You can pick them up and avoid them." After thinking about it, he said, "No, you can stay after picking up the guests."

"Yes, sir!" Shirley replied sweetly.

……

Outside the floor-to-ceiling glass window of the living room, there is a faint blue ocean, and you can also see several small islands on the sea in the distance.

On the sofa opposite Lu Ming, sat a Western lady in her fifties with flashy jewelry. She was Barcolo's wife Madeleine.

Sitting there, she looked a little uneasy.

I picked up a slender lady's cigarette from the coffee table and lit it. My hands were shaking and I couldn't light the lighter several times.

Shirley, who was standing next to her, took two steps, squatted down gently, took the lighter from Madeline's hand, and helped her light a cigarette.

"Thank you..." Madeleine forced a smile at Shirley.

Although she was in extreme fear, her childhood education allowed her to maintain a certain elegance.

Just like the queen who was sent to the guillotine would apologize for stepping on the executioner's foot.

It’s hard to imagine how this woman would get into a fight with her daughter-in-law in a barber shop.

Although the hair salons that ladies come in and out of nowadays are not considered public places and have a certain degree of privacy, they are definitely not private clubs where gossip cannot spread.

Lu Ming crossed his arms, looked at Madeleine, and sighed softly, "Commissioner Bucklow and I are colleagues. Although, you may also know, our relationship is not harmonious, but I still don't want to see it. You are like this, because of your behavior, you are humiliating Commissioner Bucklow, and also humiliating our entire municipal committee..."

"Don't tell him, okay?" Madeline looked up, with panic and pleading in her eyes.

"I will help you pay back the money you owe for the time being. This is an IOU." Lu Ming handed a note with a red handprint and neat handwriting to Madeline.

Not only did Madeleine sell off most of the family business stocks, she also owed usury.

According to the IOU, he owed millions. However, Lu Ming used 100,000 to get it back, and the rest was an imaginary number with compound interest.

"You don't dare to tell your husband or your son, but you would rather sell the stocks of the family business and borrow high-interest loans. Have you encountered some kind of scam? Tell me and I will help you solve it." Lu Ming sighed, "Actually, even though you are addicted to medicine, you can't use this much money at all."

Madeline lowered her head and said nothing.

Lu Ming leaned back on the sofa, "Actually, Maggie and Anderson are both dangerous members of extremist organizations. You have been supporting them. Are you being deceived? Or is it because of your daughter-in-law that you hate her? All people from a different ethnic group than you?"

Madeline looked up in shock: "Aren't they professional killers?" Then her face turned pale.

Lu Ming smiled, that’s it.

Today, there is actually no evidence that the money Madeline sold off her stocks was given to Maggie or Anderson.

Come to think of it, both parties have always done cash transactions.

More than 500,000 yuan was sold for the stock of Madeleine's family business. Adding in the money borrowed from loan sharks, perhaps, the money from selling jewelry, various gray income private money, etc., I am afraid it will be 1.8 million. If all the money had been given to Maggie or Anderson, it would have been more than a year ago, and the money should not have been used up. However, Maggie's residence was not found.

There is no evidence, so I can only lie. It is also a technique of cross-examining confessions, as if I know everything and have enough evidence.

However, this is not an interrogation room, and his conversation with her will certainly not be evidence.

I asked Shirley to be with me because I didn’t want to talk to Madeline alone in a room for too long. Moreover, I could tell what kind of person Shirley was by just looking at her, which should be able to soothe Madeline’s mood.

Besides, since she is temporarily left as the housekeeper here, it is also important for her to understand what kind of person she is.

Speaking of which, I really don’t have a suitable housekeeper here. After all, a blonde like Shirley who has received special etiquette training is inconspicuous here.

From Lady Windsor's perspective, since she had been chosen, she was naturally sent to her after various careful investigations.

And this suite can help me do a lot of things. For example, I have made an appointment with a potential business partner, who is also an empire-level business tycoon, to meet here.

Leveraging momentum is sometimes important.

This suite can make others dream a lot.

Another example is Madeleine, who knew that she was her husband's rival, but when she came here, she subconsciously felt that she had a much higher status than her husband.

After all, she is barely considered an upper class member of society, and she still knows some of the rumors here.

Lu Ming looked at Madeline and sighed: "They are professional killers, but they are not what you think."

"Have you expressed your resentment towards your daughter-in-law to Maggie more than once? This made them focus on you."

"They told you that they could help you get rid of your nasty daughter-in-law, and you, excited, agreed to pay them a generous reward."

"Then, well, more than a year ago, your daughter-in-law's maid died in a car accident while going to buy groceries."

Lu Ming's head was spinning rapidly. All the things that had happened to the Bakluo family in the past year flashed quickly, and a clear context gradually emerged.

"This is what they did, but they told you that they got the wrong person. In fact, they should have done it on purpose and tied you tightly. From then on, you became their accomplice in murder, and Until your daughter-in-law, Mrs. Jia, is eliminated, she can justifiably accept money from you."

Madeline's face was full of astonishment: "They, didn't they think that the vicious woman was in the car?"

Lu Ming continued, "Just like this, they took money from you again and again, saying they wanted to get rid of your daughter-in-law, but every time, they failed, but you got deeper and deeper, trying to stop. They started threatening you. They have recordings, and maybe even videos, of you instructing them to kill your daughter-in-law. You were also the instigator of the maid’s death!”

Madeline listened blankly, filled with horror. She never expected that the man opposite her knew clearly about this terrible nightmare that had been plaguing her for so long.

And she now has to take hallucinogenic drugs to fall asleep.

Seeing Madeline's expression, Lu Ming knew that his analysis was inseparable, and he shook his head.

From this line, it is impossible to find out whether Bucklo has any relationship with the extremist organization.

He must have been involved in Old Reno's revenge. Whether it was for political reasons or for other reasons, only he and Old Reno may know.

But no matter what, this Bucklow family is also very weird.

The mother-in-law hates her daughter-in-law so much that she wants to find a killer to get rid of her. This family relationship is too chaotic.

In my previous life, I have also seen parents-in-law killing their daughters-in-law, but the reasons for the murder are still very different from the one before me. I can only say that every tragic family has its underlying reasons. .

"Why do you hate Mrs. Jia so much? She is smart and capable, and is the family successor in the eyes of Commissioner Bucklow. And as far as I know, Mr. Bucklow has absolutely no unethical behavior towards her."

Hearing her daughter-in-law's name, Madeleine's eyes flashed with hatred, "This vicious woman, the first time I saw her, I knew she was here to ruin my happy life!..."

Lu Ming was startled and knew that it was probably because of various family matters. In fact, many conflicts had accumulated over time. If they were not resolved early, they would go in an extreme direction, and they might really want the other party to die before they would give in.

……

Rubbing his face helplessly, Lu Ming looked at the scenery outside the window.

Madeline seemed to have finally found someone to talk to. She told herself from the beginning about how disrespectful her daughter-in-law was when they first met her, and then all kinds of things. She continued talking for more than two hours, which was mind-boggling. Ren hurts.

What made Madeline most angry was that her daughter-in-law deprived her of the right to make coffee.

In the past, making fragrant coffee for her husband and son was Madeleine's happiest moment.

But since the daughter-in-law came into the house, both her husband and son have fallen in love with the coffee her daughter-in-law brews, saying it tastes much better than the coffee she brews.

For this reason, Madeleine spent a lot of money and time to hire top barista professors, but every time she tried to regain her position, she was met with deeper disappointment.

The daughter-in-law also told Madeleine with a sweet smile that from now on she can just leave small tasks like making coffee to her, as she is better than her mother-in-law.

At that time, Madeleine wanted to strangle this vicious woman to death.

Lu Ming felt helpless when he heard this. However, what Mrs. Jia destroyed was Madeleine's last sense of presence in family life. However, as a daughter-in-law, she was completely unaware of it and thought she was very filial. .

Of course, it is not ruled out that Mrs. Jia just wants to replace her mother-in-law and become the new hostess of the family.

Everything done is a change of dynasty for the new mistress.

Human psychology is sometimes really a university question.

Although hearing these messy things was a headache, Lu Ming still endured his impatience and listened in order to understand the family deeply. There were many details about the family's trivial matters, which were very useful for further understanding Bucklo.

Now, it’s like my ears are still buzzing, as if Madeleine’s chatter is still echoing.

The only gain was that Madeleine told Anderson a secret hiding place, and Fumosi had already taken him there.

Lu Ming was thoughtful as he thought about the family life Madeleine told about Bucklow and Mrs. Jia.

"Sir, I see that you are a little tired. Would you like me to give you a massage to relieve your fatigue? There is a massage room here, and I have prepared the best essential oils."

Beside her, Shirley had been standing quietly, watching Lu Ming rub his face and move his shoulders, and then whispered.

He added: "I have compiled and recorded everything Ms. Madeleine said. You can take a look at it again when you are relieved of fatigue. Maybe it can bring you some inspiration."

Huh? Lu Ming was slightly startled. This housekeeper is really quite good. She is quite capable of choosing. As a clerk, she is top-notch. As a maid, she is even more top-notch. However, his face darkened. "There will be no orders from me in the future." , you are not allowed to record the conversation between me and anyone. Now, destroy this record immediately! If you do it again, I will fire you immediately and violate the confidentiality agreement. When the time comes, you will be in huge debt!"

Shirley's face immediately turned pale, and beads of sweat appeared on the bridge of her nose. Her confidence and elegance had disappeared. She said hurriedly: "Yes, yes, sir, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Turning around, she walked quickly. He ran towards the study room, even accidentally twisting his high heels and limping into the study room.

Lu Ming shook his head, picked up the microphone at his side, and started dialing.
