Chapter 540 Charity Dinner (please vote for the big chapter)
At 4:30 in the afternoon, He Ao returned to the Jungle Bar.
This time the doorman did not let him go through the door with the hydraulic rod on it. Instead, he took him deep into the bar, then turned a few corners and entered the circle he had seen in the morning through a small door.
shaped hall.
The corpses in the hall have been cleared away, and Haixi is holding a black suitcase, standing in the middle of the hall waiting for He Ao.
She watched He Ao come over, unlocked the automatic lock of the suitcase, opened the box, and showed the contents to He Ao.
It was a folded men's suit.
"I'll ask a costume designer to make it for you and try to see if it fits." Hai Xi looked at He Ao, "The requirements for clothing for attending this kind of dinner are relatively high. We can't show that we are unprepared."
He Ao took a look at the dress and his eyes fell on Haixi's burgundy eyes.
There was always a certain brilliance emanating from those beautiful eyes.
This should be a pair of prosthetic eyes.
Hai Xi did not reach out to measure He Ao's body size, but she was able to ask someone to customize clothes for him, which proved that she had some way to determine the size without tailoring, and most prosthetic eyes come with this simple method.
size measurement function.
"Thanks,"
He Ao was not polite. He took the box directly and looked around, "Is there a locker room nearby?"
Jess has his own evening dress, but now there should be sentries everywhere near Jess's house, so He Ao can't go back.
But attending a dinner party does require an evening dress. If Hexi was not prepared, He Ao would buy a barely acceptable one on the way and wear it.
"You come with me."
Haixi brought He Ao into her office. There is a separate bathroom deep in the office. "I usually change clothes here."
"good."
He Ao nodded, took the suitcase, opened the bathroom door and walked in.
He quickly took off his coat and hung it on the hook, then began to take off his blood-stained underwear.
As the underwear was taken off, a silver pendant stained with blood was revealed.
He Ao stretched out his hand to wipe away the blood on the pendant and opened it.
This pendant is similar to a covered pocket watch and can be opened horizontally. There are small photos embedded on the left and right sides of the pendant.
The photo on the left is a gentle old couple, these are Jess's parents.
The photo on the right is of a woman with glasses, a gentle face, and a happy smile. This is Jess's wife Tini.
He Ao closed the pendant, quickly changed into his evening clothes, and stood in front of the bathroom mirror.
This evening dress was obviously made by a master costumer. All the sizes and proportions are just right, and it can perfectly highlight Jace's elegant and easy-going temperament.
He Aola opened the bathroom door and walked out.
Haixi's eyes lit up outside the door. She smiled and said, "Enwit is not bragging."
"Enwit?"
He Ao looked at her doubtfully.
"A bad old man, he claims to be the best clothes maker in the whole of Wetland."
Haixi smiled and looked at He Ao, who was standing tall and tall in front of her, "At least his clothes are well designed."
He Ao nodded in agreement.
Wei An has received a complete aesthetic education, and He Ao, who inherited Wei An's memory, also has a basic aesthetic education. From the perspective of clothing design alone, this dress is indeed very well designed.
"wait for me a while."
Haixi picked up another suitcase from the table nearby, waved to He Ao, and walked into the bathroom.
About ten minutes later, she walked out of the bathroom.
A beautiful woman wearing a black gauze deep V mermaid dress appeared in front of He Ao.
This dress is obviously specially customized for Haixi. The characteristic of the mermaid skirt is that it is gathered at the waist and near the knees, which perfectly outlines Haixi's slender waist, plump hips, and plump thighs.
come out.
Coupled with her short burgundy hair and snow-white skin, she looks heroic yet a little charming.
"This dress of yours..."
He Ao looked up and down at the mermaid skirt and frowned slightly.
Although this dress looks good, it is much inferior in terms of practicality. After all, they may encounter danger. Wearing this kind of mermaid dress is not convenient for movement at all.
Hai Xi looked at He Ao and smiled, then unbuttoned the buckle in the pleats of the skirt. The gathered mermaid skirt parted instantly and turned into two pairs of bell-bottom pants with tassels.
Haixi's temperament also completely changed from charming to heroic.
"OK."
He Ao nodded slightly.
"Then it's almost time for us to set off."
Hexi clicked back the buckle, turned the bell-bottom pants back into a mermaid skirt, and smiled.

Huiermei Medical Building
Unlike other large consortiums in Weitland that have their headquarters in the Saint-Roto district east of Wetland, the Wilhelm Medical Building stands in the oldest district of North Weitland in the city.
This building is adjacent to the Witteland University, and walking three kilometers to the north is the Witteland City Council Building.
Although the Huilmei Medical Consortium can only barely enter the top twenty in the market capitalization ranking of all federal consortiums, it is one of the oldest consortiums in the entire federation.
The Wilmer Medical Foundation was established almost when Wetland City was first built. At that time, it was even in the original Federation era and the Federation had not yet been established.
Many consortiums of the same era as Huiermei Medical were eventually submerged in the dust of history. Only Huiermei not only was not destroyed in these hundreds of years, but instead grew step by step into a behemoth throughout the entire federation.
things.
The dark and beautiful sports car drove into the underground parking lot of Huiermei Medical Building. Under the guidance of the intelligent parking assistant, He Ao parked the car near the entrance and exit of the parking lot.
This sports car belongs to Hexi, but because Hexi is wearing a skirt and it is difficult to open and close the buckle all the time, He Ao takes the role of driver.
The two got out of the car and closed the door. With the sound of the electronic car lock automatically locking, He Ao saw one luxury car after another driving into the underground parking lot.
"The dinner will be held on the 39th floor, where there is a venue specifically for banquets."
Haixi took He Ao to the elevator nearby, "Generally speaking, the elevator in this underground parking lot can go directly to the 39th floor."
"Does this building have a research area?"
Holding a suitcase in his hand, He Ao followed Hai Xi into the elevator and glanced at the buttons in the elevator.
"Those areas are confidential areas," Haixi pressed the button for the 39th floor. As the elevator went up, she glanced at He Ao, "Normally they are not allowed to enter. Do you want to take a look?"
"I have several students working in this building."
He Ao shook his head and smiled.
Before Jess participated in the Mysterious Man project, as a rising academic star in the industry, he had taught many students.
Moreover, the overall quality of these students is not bad. After graduation, they usually work in large biological companies or medical consortiums.
"student?"
Haixi was stunned.
She has seen how He Ao kills people. He is decisive, straightforward and not sloppy. He looks more like a professional killer than a teacher.
But looking at He Ao's calm and elegant appearance, she suddenly felt that it was not surprising that He Ao was a teacher.
There are many professional killers who disguise their identities using relatively common professions.
Perhaps the 'Jace' in front of him is disguised as a teacher from a primary school or middle school.
Strictly speaking, he has only met He Ao for the second time now and does not know He Ao well.
She looked at He Ao, smiled and asked, "Which subject do you teach?"
"Huh?" He Ao glanced at her and thought, "Creature."
"That's right, it's a medical consortium after all,"
Haixi nodded and glanced at the changing floor numbers above her head.
"Huiermei's scientific research area is on the 30th to 38th floors. However, these floors have strict security measures and are generally inaccessible. However, there seems to be a process explained by scientific researchers at today's dinner. You may be able to
Meet your students."
Ding--
As Haixi finished speaking, the elevator arrived at the 39th floor, and the elevator door slowly opened.
The first thing that caught He Ao's eyes was a huge floor-to-ceiling electronic screen. A simple-designed poster covered the electronic screen.
[For children and the future]
[Huiermei Charitable Foundation Children’s Charity Dinner]
Next to the electronic screen is a security check channel. Two young men in dark suits and neat formal suits are standing at the entrance of the security check channel, holding Dream security inspection equipment to conduct security checks on all the guests attending the dinner.
Next to the security check channel is a smart storage box.
Lines of text were displayed on the display of the storage box, reminding guests that if they have something that is inconvenient for security inspection, they can store it in the storage box first.
He Ao walked over with his suitcase and stored it in the storage box.
There is nothing special in this suitcase, just two powerful pistols that can cause damage to D-class extraordinarys.
He didn't bring He Ao's alloy dagger with him, but kept it in the car, because a dagger of that size would definitely not pass the security check, and it was placed in a safe deposit box. Once there was a conflict with the Huiermei Consortium, it would not be taken away.
came out, so he left the knife in the car.
However, killing does not necessarily require special weapons, and knives and forks for convenient dining are usually provided at dinner parties.
Of course, He Ao is a law-abiding person, and he will not take the initiative to turn tableware into dangerous items.
After storing their suitcases, He Ao and Hai Xi walked to the security check channel together.
The two passed the security check easily and walked along the security check channel toward the dinner hall.
"Miss Hessy."
At this time, a soft shout suddenly came from behind.
He Ao and Hai Xi turned around at the same time and saw a gray-haired, elegant-looking man standing behind them.
He Ao narrowed his eyes slightly. He had seen this person's photos many times in the past two days.
This is one of the two current senators of Wetland, and his term is about to expire and Senator Ned is seeking re-election.
He Ao has seen many campaign advertisements about Ned in the past two days.
But he didn't expect to meet each other here.
"Mr. Ned."
Hexi also greeted Ned with a smile and stretched out his hand to shake Ned's hand.
"Who is this?"
Ned grabbed Hexi's hand and looked at He Ao next to Hexi.
"This is my brother Jace,"
Hexi smiled, and then took his hand out of Ned's hand without leaving a trace, "He came to the dinner with me."
Distant cousins, this is the identity relationship established by He Ao and Hai Xi on the road.
"Jace"
He Ao stretched out his hand.
"Hello, I'm Ned."
Ned had no choice but to stretch out his empty hand and shake hands with He Ao.
He glanced at He Ao and said with a smile, "Mr. Jess is a talented person at first glance. I didn't expect Miss Haixi to have a brother like you."
"We have a long-distance relationship and rarely have contact. We only got in touch recently."
He Ao smiled and released his hold on Ned's hand, "Mr. Ned is a senator, but he still takes time out of his busy schedule to attend a charity dinner. He really cares about the people."
"I think about how to make the citizens of Wetterland better off every day now,"
Ned smiled, and then pointed to the dinner hall, "I have some tasks to do during the dinner later, so I'll go in first."
"good."
He Ao and Hai Xi smiled and nodded at the same time.
After he walked into the depths of the hall, He Ao and Hai Xi walked slowly towards the banquet hall.
"What does this charity dinner have to do with that senator?"
He Ao looked at the people coming and going at the dinner, walked to a small dining table at the edge of the hall and sat down, picked up a piece of apple from the fruit plate on the table, and asked casually.
"The chairman of the Wilmer Charitable Foundation is his son."
Haixi picked up a blueberry and put it in his mouth. He glanced at the beautifully dressed young host at the edge of the stage and said, "The host of this dinner is his mistress."
"It seems that he doesn't have much personal ethics."
He Ao said calmly.
"Public morality may not be better."
Hexi glanced at Ned deep in the crowd again,
"Every year he invites us to donate money to the Huiermei Charitable Foundation in the name of the Huiermei Medical Foundation. He says it is donated to the charity foundation, but his son is the chairman of the charity foundation and his daughter is the director of the charity foundation. These
Where the money donated to charitable foundations goes, only they themselves know.”
"It seems you don't have a good impression of the Wilmer Charitable Foundation."
He Ao said casually.
“When I was a kid, I received relief food from them and had to wait in line for four hours on a rainy day,” Haixi said slowly. “They advertised that each of us could get a big bag of bread and a small piece of synthetic beef.
But all we got was a small piece of expired, sour brown bread,"
She also picked up a piece of apple and took a bite. "Of course, I have seen people receiving the food they advertised, but since then, I have never seen those people receiving the food."
Haixi seemed to realize that she had said too much. She smiled, picked up the wine glass on the side and took a sip of wine, "These are all in the past tense, and there is no point in talking about them now."
At this time, several more people sat over. Judging by their attire, they seemed to be well-known figures in Wetland, and they all knew Hei Xi.
Haixi straightened up her expression, smiled and chatted with them for a while, and then was pulled into the dance floor in the middle of the hall and began to communicate with the others one by one.
This kind of dinner is usually a good place for middlemen like her to network and meet new ‘clients’.
And He Ao was sitting in the corner, eating fruit quietly.
This charity dinner seems to be raising charity funds through auctions. The formal process of the dinner has not yet begun, and it is still the communication stage before the dinner.
However, at this time, there were also some service staff serving pre-dinner snacks around.
He Ao stopped the waiter and ordered a small cake. He glanced at the people mingling in the middle of the hall, lowered his head, and slowly cut the cake with a fork.
Jess didn't like attending such noisy dance parties.
"Professor Jess!?"
At this time, a surprised voice suddenly came from behind him.
