Dream Guide
Chapter 485 Celebrities Gathered
Santa Monica Boulevard in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles, is crowded with luxury cars. The palm trees on both sides stand straighter than telephone poles, as if they are welcoming distinguished guests with the greatest sincerity.
Among the row of luxury cars, there was an inconspicuous Cadillac, squeezed in the middle of the convoy, crawling forward slowly like a turtle.
Hou Biao drove the car, carefully observing the situation at every intersection and nearby vehicles.
The Wolfe family is very powerful in Los Angeles. With Hong Kui's explanation, the professor and his party received a very cordial reception. They originally arranged a Rolls-Royce for Professor Mei, but Hou Biao felt that the car was too conspicuous and asked for another one. The professor didn't care, he just said he could take a nap. He used to drive an old-fashioned Cadillac in the United States and found it very comfortable, so he did as he wished.
This car is indeed easily lost in the ordinary traffic on the streets of Los Angeles, but in Beverly Hills, especially at this special moment, it has become extremely conspicuous.
Hou Biao knew that the cars around him were filled with rich people and celebrities who were going to attend today's charity dinner, and some of them were accompanied by a convoy of bodyguards. It was enough for the rich and famous to drive luxury cars. What puzzled him was that their bodyguards also drove supercars. Would that make their owners appear wealthy? Or should you run faster when you are in danger? But in Hou Biao's view, whether it is escaping or chasing, a 150 pickup truck is definitely more practical than any sports car.
Professor Mei was napping in the back seat of the car. The two days of socializing had made him dizzy. In his own words, talking to a politician was more tiring than talking to a fool. Although a fool doesn't know what you are talking about, a politician will pretend not to know what you are talking about even though he knows what you are talking about, and then say something that only he knows what he is talking about, and you will never guess what he is talking about. Say something.
Mei Ziqing was in good spirits. She stared at the scenery outside the car with her eyes wide open, and then guessed which star was sitting in which car. Although she can be called a scientist, a woman's nature can't help but be curious about what the handsome guys and beauties in the movie look like in reality.
The car stopped in front of a large building that looked like a post office decades ago. Hou Biao got out of the car, opened the door, and protected the professor from the car. A receptionist who knew the professor came over warmly, greeted the professor and walked forward together.
Hou Biao used his mental power to lightly scan his body, and then consciously fell a few steps behind, following the professor.
Other rich people and celebrities also got out of the car one after another, leaving many people wearing suits and spy headphones in the square. Hou Biao knew that most of these were bodyguards brought by rich people. They could not enter the main venue and could only wait outside.
Police and security personnel maintained order and asked them to park their vehicles at designated locations. They were polite to each other on the surface, smiling, but their eyes were full of disdain. The police probably thought these people were redundant. Beverly Hills is one of the safest gathering places for the rich. The bodyguards probably didn’t believe in the abilities and sense of responsibility of the government officials, so they not only disdained them but even smiled. Also indifferent.
Hou Biao found a familiar face in the crowd. It was one of his people he had arranged to come in advance. They were not allowed to enter the venue, but peripheral inspections and defenses still had to be in place. Of course, this would also benefit from the help of the Wolf family. Otherwise, it would be extremely troublesome for him to arrange a large number of people to come over in a place like this.
The man nodded to him, then lowered his head and said something into the headset. Hou Biao said something, looked around again, and then followed the professor and Mei Ziqing.
The architecture of the Wallis Annenberg Performing Arts Center is very distinctive, combining tradition and modernity. It looks both contemporary and magnificent, but also has retro elegance. Entering the marble hall, you can see eight murals, showing scenes of hungry children and people queuing for food.
As soon as Hou Biao saw the painting, he immediately became nervous. He remembered what Aoki had said that Xia Wenyuan was parasitized because he bought a famous Picasso painting from Ronald Cohen. Although the specific method of parasitism has not yet been clarified, it is highly possible to parasitize or activate some kind of consciousness energy through paintings.
Fortunately, Professor Mei did not go to see those murals, and Hou Biao heard someone next to him introduce that this was a project of the federal government's Public Works Development Administration, depicting scenes during the Great Depression, with the purpose of letting everyone not forget the past. Tragedy, don’t make the same mistakes of the past.
Hou Biao relaxed and stopped caring about the murals.
There were several big men walking around in the hall who also wore headphones. Hou Biao knew that they were plainclothes specially arranged by the FBI. As he walked up the steps to the main theater, the detector beeped. Two security personnel asked him to show his identification and asked him to hand over his gun and other metal objects.
Hou Biao didn't say anything. He handed the documents to them for registration, and then quickly scanned the two people with his mental power. His hypnotic ability is not as vast as Aoki's, but it has improved by leaps and bounds in the past year or so, and it is not difficult to pass a level.
The two men seemed alert and stared at Hou Biao for a while, but still returned the certificate to him. At this time, he was already behind the security device, so he naturally would not cause the alarm to sound.
After entering the main theater, there is basically no direct danger. It is unlikely that there will be an attack with a gun in such a gathering of wealthy families, otherwise the federal government will consider cutting government spending.
But Hou Biao did not dare to take it lightly. Since he could enter the venue with a gun, others can naturally do it, whether they use special abilities or powers. What's more, those security personnel and federal agents may not all be reliable. Who knows if there are parasites among them, and whether there will be any actions against the professor. Even if it is not directed at the professor, but at an important person nearby, there is still the possibility of causing harm to Chi Yu.
Usually in such activities that are called charity but are actually social events, the core figures are some heavyweight capitalists or politicians, and even top entertainment stars can only serve as guests. Scientists like Mei Yiqiu rarely appear in such events. Occasions generally occur and are dealt with casually. This time is different, because several capitalists originally wanted to participate in the space box project, so they specially organized such a charity event that combined technology and entertainment, and most of the guests here today are players of "Dream Guide". If it weren't for this reason, Mei Yiqiu would never be willing to participate.
As soon as the host introduced Professor Mei, the atmosphere became lively. Everyone stepped forward to shake hands with the professor and take photos. He became the core figure of this event.
Hou Biao stood in the corner of the venue, carefully observing everyone and their every move. He heard someone saying:
"Is this bad old man the leader of the space box project?"
"Yes, he is not a bad old man, he is now the chief scientific adviser of the United Nations Space Management Committee!"
"Aren't all China's knockoffs? Why are the top products now made in China? Where are our apples? Are they all rotten? If Mr. Qiao is alive, he will definitely not let these Chinese people steal the show!"
"Don't the Chinese still learn from us? This Professor Mei used to be at Princeton."
"I suspect that federal government officials have been parasitized by aliens. Look at what they have done in the past two years, which is far worse than China's leaders!"
"I think the federal government is fine. It would be weird if they could make wise decisions! I think the Chinese are being parasitized. Aliens have taught them black technology. Otherwise, how could they make a space box like this?" Plant something?"
The people next to him were all convinced and nodded their heads. They looked at Mei Yiqiu with a different look, as if they saw an alien with a big head and a small body living in his mind, making an evil laugh.
If you don’t recommend it, how can you lose it if your popularity doesn’t increase (ㄒ﹏ㄒ)
