Chapter 26 Money Is Not so Easy to Earn

At the corner of the street, after Owen got his camera ready, Bradley straightened his suit and tie,

Said to Owen, "When I enter the hotel, you drive the car to the telephone booth not far from the hotel. When the phone rings, it means that I will come down with Henry and Annie."

"Understood", Owen nodded again and again, and then heard Bradley's advice, "Don't just wait for the phone call, keep your eyes on the hotel door at all times, lest Annie come out by herself."

Owen smiled and said, "Don't worry, Joe, I am a professional photographer, as long as I have seen the photos, I will definitely not mistake the person in the photos.

And this is 2,500 US dollars, which is enough for me to change to a Cadillac and buy an additional two-story mansion."

"That's good." Bradley took a deep breath and calmly said, "I have to go there early and find out first, so that Annie and Henry don't leave the hotel."

A few minutes later, Li Changheng, who had just seen Bradley enter the hotel through the window, was leaning against the door of Annie's room when he heard a knock on the door from the next room.

After a while, there was a knock on the door from his own side. Through the cat's eyes, Li Changheng saw Bradley with an anxious expression on his face, and knocked on the door again.

A series of knocks on the door made Li Changheng worried that Annie would be woken up.

He walked lightly to the bedroom, closed the door carefully, and then held a glass of red wine, stood by the window and looked at Owen who was sitting in the car by the street and looked out at the hotel.

Ten minutes later, Bradley went downstairs to the front desk feeling depressed, and asked Li Changheng and Annie if they had checked out.

But the front desk shook his head directly, "Sorry, sir, we cannot disclose any information about the customer,

Let you go upstairs, or the lobby manager guarantees that you know our customers, and the rest, I can only say sorry."

Hell, Bradley turned his head in the lobby, looking for the lobby manager who took him into the elevator just now, but after searching a few times, he couldn't find anyone anywhere.

But he didn't know that the manager who was on the night shift and persisted all morning had already gone home and fell asleep.

Bradley sat restlessly in the lounge area, secretly regretting that he didn't have the cheek to stay on the sofa in Li Changheng's suite yesterday.

Wait, he suddenly thought of something, quickly stood up and came to the front desk, "I want to open a room, it must be one of the two rooms 505 and 507."

The front desk was taken aback, but even though she knew that the other party didn't really want to stay in the hotel, she still had to reply, "Sorry, sir, 505 and 507 are temporarily unavailable, you can choose other luxury suites."

"That's it," Bradley said with a smug smile, "Then I'll think about it again."

After finishing speaking, he walked out of the hotel, and when passing by Owen across the street, he snorted at him, and Owen understood and drove to the corner of the street.

Then he quickly got out of the car, and asked anxiously to Bradley who was standing on the side of the street, "No one was found? Did they all check out and leave?"

"The room was not returned, but I couldn't knock on the door."

"That is to say, either the two of you go out early in the morning, or you just don't want to pay attention to you anymore?"

After Owen muttered, he suddenly stared at Bradley and said, "Dude, did you tell that Henry about your occupation yesterday?"

"I,..." Bradley patted his forehead, and said annoyedly, "Perhaps Henry also read the newspaper this morning and knew Annie's identity."

"Now what?"

"What else can we do?" Bradley sighed, "Either we continue to guard outside the hotel, or we pray that Henry will not send Anne back directly, but take her to play in Rome, so that Take the opportunity to get close to Annie."

In the end, one of the two continued to guard in the hotel lobby, and the other watched the car to try their luck at the scenic spot in Rome. They agreed to return to this street corner to meet at 12 noon.

And if they don't see each other at 12 o'clock, it means that one of them has found Annie.

As for whether Li Changheng will appear next to Annie, or whether to find another handsome guy as a part-time actor, the two of them no longer care.

Getting $5,000 is better than nothing.

Owen handed Bradley a lighter with a shiny copper case, "Joe, you should know how to use this miniature camera, right?"

"Well," Bradley nodded, and finally let Owen teach it again, took a photo, and returned to the rest area of ​​the hotel lobby with frustration and anticipation.

"Jingle Bell".

A phone rang, and three people who were watching Bradley and Owen on the street reported the news of their separation, and then asked if they wanted to send someone to follow Owen.

Li Changheng smiled and said no, and then heard a voice in the microphone saying that they saw Owen give Bradley a bright copper lighter.

With the intuition of years of street life, they felt that there was something wrong with that lighter.

"Of course there is a problem. That lighter is a miniature camera, which is one of your targets."

"Understood, boss."

Hearing that the goal was determined, that is, the money was waiting for the three of them, the caller immediately said happily, "Don't worry, I guarantee that the film in the lighter will appear in front of you."

"En", after hanging up the phone, Li Changheng sneered with his mouth upturned.

Money can turn ghosts, but people with ulterior motives must be on guard, just like little ghosts. He understood this truth when he was an orphan in his previous life.

Unknowingly, the time came to noon, and the room service was called. The hotel waiter pushed the dining car in and began to arrange lunch in the suite.

After a while, Li Changheng, who was standing by the window looking out, heard the phone ringing again.

But this time he didn't need to report from the people watching below, he saw the red Fiat passing by the hotel gate, turning towards the corner of the street, and then saw Bradley leaving the hotel.

Picking up the microphone, listening to the report from the people below that Bradley and Owen were having a meeting, Li Changheng said with a smile, "Thank you, you can report Joe Bradley's name later, and go to the hotel restaurant in batches for meals. I'll settle the fee."

Hearing the voice of "thank you" from the microphone, Li Changheng hung up the phone with a smile, and then called the front desk to tell the matter.

After the waiter who arranged the lunch left, Li Changheng knocked on the door outside Annie's bedroom.

After waiting for a while, seeing no one responded, she opened the door directly, and saw Annie still lying on her side, soundly asleep.

'You can really sleep'.

Smiling and shaking his head, he walked to the bed, looked at the quiet and serene Annie for a while, and then stretched out his hand to scratch Annie's palm.

Annie, with itchy palms, murmured and shook her hand, then continued to sleep.

Li Changheng, who was holding back a smile with the corners of his mouth turned up, was suddenly taken aback, as if he hadn't confirmed whether the girl in front of him was the princess of England.

For a moment, Li Changheng expected that Anne would not be a princess, but an ordinary person.

He lowered his head and asked in a low voice, "Your Highness."

"Hmmm," came a series of nasal sounds, Li Changheng's mouth twitched a few times, and he asked again helplessly, "His Royal Highness Anne?"
