"It should be the Foreign Affairs Hotel." Miss Tong said, "It's the original Tongfu Hotel. Anyway, it's usually here. This year it should be the same, on the night of New Year's Day."
Fan Keqin said: "Foreign Affairs Hotel...can I go in here?"
"Yes." Miss Tong said, "I will take you there. Normally, the Foreign Affairs Hotel is also open to the public, but it is not open to the public before and after the banquet."
Fan Keqin said energetically: "Okay, let's let Lian Qingyun know what despair means on New Year's Day!"
Miss Tong knows that Fan Keqin's character is actually a very calm type, but now he is willing to say some funny and exaggerated words to comfort herself, which naturally makes her feel happy. He couldn't help but hug Fan Keqin tightly again.
In other words, today’s fake Reserve Bank of China is a bit unusual. When the shift was supposed to be handed over in the morning, Xiru, the security team leader of the other shift, did not go to work on time. But at first, no one cared. After all, it might be because of something, so it's normal to be a little late.
But at nine o'clock, it hadn't come yet, and at ten o'clock, it hadn't come yet. Lian Yishan, another group leader of the security clan, felt something was wrong. But at this time, he still didn't think about it. Instead, he asked one of his security guards to go out and go to Xiru's house to see what was going on.
The result was very fast. When the security guard came back, he told Lian Yishan that the door of Xi's Confucian home was locked. He kept knocking on the door for a long time but there was no answer. He even knocked on the door of the neighbors, but there was no movement yet. So I asked my neighbor if he had seen Xiru.
The neighbor told him that he hadn't seen it, so the security guard quickly reported the letter without asking any questions. Lian Yishan frowned a little and thought about it. When he and Xiru took over yesterday, they carefully read the handover record. No problem!
Then Lian Yishan immediately opened the vault, went in and walked around again, but still didn't see any problems. But Xiru didn't come, so this matter couldn't be delayed. After all, he is the head of the security team of the treasury, so there is no way to hide this matter. There are also regulations that must not be hidden. Otherwise, if something happens, it will be your own responsibility.
At this time, it's not something I'm hiding out of loyalty, so I can't do it. Even if it was later found out that Xiru did not come because of an emergency, he would still be able to explain clearly. But if there is really a big problem and you fail to report it, then you may be jointly and severally liable.
So Lian Yishan immediately responded to the report. After reporting it, there was no response for a while. Although he knew that Xiru, the leader of the security team, was not here, Lian Yishan did not report anything wrong with the treasury. After all, he inspected it again and found nothing wrong, so naturally he didn't say anything happened to the vault.
So this matter didn't happen until around two o'clock in the afternoon, when the director of the affairs management office in charge of the treasury went down to the treasury and asked Lian Yishan, but Xiru still didn't believe him at all. While feeling puzzled, Lian Yishan asked Lian Yishan to open the vault and check it himself.
Because the director of the Affairs Management Office also understands that as long as nothing happens to the treasury, it won't be a big problem. After Lian Yishan opened the vault, he and the director of the Affairs Management Office checked the situation in the vault more carefully. Several boxes of banknotes, the numbers are correct. They even opened the box and looked through it, but there was no case that the top layer of banknotes was stuffed with something else underneath.
The gold bars were also checked and there was nothing wrong with them. Because the gold bars are placed layer by layer, but not next to each other, you can tell at a glance that they must be fine. The two of them even looked at some gold bars back and forth, and found that there were indeed no fakes with lead bars and gold paint.
The same is true for Yinyang. As for Japanese yen and US dollars, there are also some in them, but only in small amounts. After a little inspection, you can conclude that there is no possibility of a problem.
In the end, we came to the conclusion that the money in the treasury must be fine and not missing at all. After checking like this, the director of the Affairs Management Office and Lian Yishan breathed a sigh of relief. After all, the funds in the treasury are fine, so it shouldn't be a big deal.
Lian Yishan told the director: Could it be that Xiru...had some other accident, something bad? He was hit by a car?
Although these two people felt more reassured after checking the treasury, after all, Xiru was also one of the security team leaders of the treasury, and he was missing. It’s impossible not to check further.
So the Office of Internal Oversight immediately became involved. Among them, Yu Yangcheng, the director of the Supervision Office, came down and inspected the treasury again. At the same time, he sent his men to find the Xiru family to guard it, and to inquire about more neighbors. There is also a group of people who go to the police station to check whether the Confucian family is involved in any cases, such as car accidents and the like.
Yu Yangcheng once again led people into the vault with Lian Yishan, and this time the inspection was more thorough. Almost every box of money and every gold bar had to be carefully identified. After checking for about half an hour, no problem was found. But when Yu Yangcheng walked to the innermost part of the vault, he saw the metal suitcase. Suddenly something felt wrong in my heart.
So Yu Yangcheng pointed to the metal suitcase and asked, "Has this been checked before?"
Lian Yishan shook his head and replied: "No, I have never checked it before. It has always been here, locked."
Yu Yangcheng said: "Do you have a key?"
Lian Yishan said: "No."
So Yu Yangcheng immediately contacted the bank again. The two managers of the bank knew about the box, so they immediately took the key and opened it. Sure enough... the two spare printing plates in the box were gone. After Xiru disappeared, no one could sit still. Those who contacted the police station contacted the police station, those who contacted the special agent headquarters contacted the special agent headquarters, and those who contacted the municipal government contacted the municipal government. In short, we have contacted everyone who can be contacted and those who cannot be contacted. The purpose is to find out where Xiru is.
First the police department, then No. 76, and the Internal Audit Office, all came. A joint investigation team was formed. First of all, we came to the conclusion that the person most suspected of the loss of the banknote printing plate must be Xi Ru. So within an hour, wanted posters had appeared on various key roads, docks, train stations and other places in Shanghai.
And checkpoints have also appeared on these choke points, with all kinds of open and hidden sentries posted. But until nightfall, there was no sign of Xiru.
But at this time, several investigators who asked Xiru's neighbors found out something. That is the Xi Confucian family. In the past few days, several new faces have come here. However, the neighbors who reported this situation were not sure. After all, it was nothing special at the time, so it was impossible to pay attention.
