The leader was the lanky face I had seen on Zhongshan Road.
The man with a long and thin face had a gloomy look on his face and said nothing, which made people feel a bit chilly in this warm season. The ones who spoke loudly were his men.
Entering the lobby, the lobby manager, waiters, and handymen all stood with their hands down, and all the guests behaved well. Only five men and women spoke in low voices, obviously not taking them seriously.
"Who are you? What do you do?" asked a young man wearing a blue tunic suit.
"We are sent to Qindao by Shanghai Tianma Foreign Trade Co., Ltd...." Xiao Lu came forward to contact us and handed over his business card.
"Tianma Yangxing Co., Ltd., John Lu? An American foreign company?" The young man in Mao Zhongshan suit looked at it and asked again.
"Of course." Xiao Lu said, neither humble nor arrogant. Now his acting skills have also improved, and he has a good sense of proportion.
The man in Chinese tunic hurriedly took his business card and replied to the lanky face.
The long and thin face held Xiao Lu's business card, and his expression was uncertain. His eyes changed countless times. After a while, he put on a smile that was uglier than crying, and said to Xiao Lu: "M
. Lu, this is Han Zhesheng from the intelligence team of Qindao Branch of the Party Affairs Investigation Department. We received reliable information that there are dangerous elements in the Central Hotel, so we cooperated with the police to temporarily block the place. No one is exempt. We hope you understand. "
However, Xiao Lu didn't lose his momentum at all, and said proudly: "Tianma Yangxing is a wholly-owned enterprise of the United States. We have important things to do on this trip, and you can't afford to delay it."
"M
Lu, we don’t mean to offend you. We just ask you to rest in this hotel for the time being. We will conduct an inspection immediately. After the inspection, please help yourself. "Han Zhesheng said with a smile.
"Forget it, Xiao Lu, don't argue with him. It's still early, just rest in the lobby for a while." Boss Ma said.
Han Zhesheng glanced at Boss Ma with a sullen face, but Boss Ma was polite to him and was still talking to the people around him with great interest.
Han Zhesheng waved his men and rushed to each floor in turn. For a moment, there was a lot of noise, screaming and jumping around everywhere...
However, this group of people moved very quickly and seemed to have completed the search quickly. However, a subordinate came to Han Zhesheng with a registration book and reported: "Team leader, all the rooms have been searched, only these few..."
I saw that there were five rooms in the register that had not been searched. Three of them belonged to Boss Ma and his party, and there were two others. One was a British guy who came to Qindao for a trip, and the other was a senior official from Qindao. The long private room is empty today.
Han Zhesheng asked the hotel manager: "These rooms, except those belonging to British guests, must be searched. No exceptions can be made."
"Sir, isn't this good..." Although he was scared, the manager still tried his best towards his responsibilities.
"Nonsense, hand over the key." Han Zhesheng shouted sharply.
"This..." The manager was still confused.
"Sir, don't make things difficult for other people who are doing things..." Boss Ma stood up and said loudly, asking a hotel manager to take the blame for him. This is not Boss Ma's character.
"These three rooms all belong to us. Since the British can make an exception, I thought it would be convenient to ask the chief." Boss Ma said with a smile.
"Oh? Um..." Han Zhesheng hesitated for a moment. He was not without discernment. He could tell at a glance that Boss Ma and his party were not ordinary people. But what kind of organization was the Party Affairs Investigation Office? Everyone was not a believer.
"What? Chief Han doesn't want to do this?" Boss Ma asked.
"Boss Ma, don't get me wrong. Han didn't mean to cause trouble, but based on reliable information, there are dangerous elements here. I'm worried about your safety," Han Zhesheng said.
"Let's each make concessions. My people will take you to our three rooms to have a look and prove that there are no dangerous elements. Our foreign company has a lot of business secrets. You know what to do." Boss Ma smiled even brighter. But the smile is a little scary.
After that, he asked Fatty, Lao Li, and Xiao Lu to lead people to check the room separately. Boss Ma didn't have a good impression of the people in the Party Affairs Investigation Department. The natural opposition between the two sides left everyone with nothing to say, and everyone had to make concessions. He has reached his limit, and it is not impossible not to give in even one step, but there are a lot more things to deal with.
Soon, the three brothers came back, and they all nodded to Boss Ma. It seemed that the people in the Party Affairs Investigation Department knew the rules and did not make any mistakes.
"Sir Han, can we leave?" Boss Ma said proudly.
"Boss Ma, please help yourself." Han Zhesheng's tone was a little strange, but he still followed his words.
Looking at Boss Ma and his entourage walking away, Han Zhesheng sighed, and his subordinate came over and asked: "Boss, why did you only let the brothers take a look at the door of the room..."
"Idiot, they have given you a lot of face today. If it weren't for special circumstances, we wouldn't be able to get away with it today." Han Zhesheng still sounded a little unhappy in his tone.
"Aren't they just a few fake foreign devils?" the subordinate asked in confusion.
"What fake foreign devils? They are from the Secret Service!" Han Zhesheng said through gritted teeth.
On the road, there happened to be five people including Boss Ma and his party in a car that had just been rented in the afternoon.
Xiao Lu, who was driving, asked with some confusion: "Boss, what are these people from the Party Affairs Investigation Department afraid of doing?"
"It's not that we're afraid of them, it's that we don't want to get into trouble. We've already been targeted by the Party Affairs Investigation Department in Jinling. If we confront them here, we won't be able to do the job. Today, these bastards have actually figured out who we are. Yes, they did it on purpose." Boss Ma said leisurely.
"What do you say?" asked Lao Li in the middle of the back seat.
"They wanted to refute our reputation, but they were afraid of fighting with both ends, so they could only take a look at the door... They were just doing errands. If they really entered the room, they were afraid that they would not be able to eat and walked away. "The fat man on Lao Li's right said.
"Yes, if we really go in, maybe we won't just eat at Chunhelou today. I guess your boss Ma will have to ask Director Xu to have a drink at the Yadong Hotel to make an agreement..." MISS Liu smiled in the passenger seat. road.
Soon we arrived at the Chunhe Building Hotel on Zhongshan Road, Qindao.
The table was full of Shandong cuisine and seafood. Although there was a small incident before going out, Boss Ma's friendly approach did not make the incident worse, and everyone returned home happily.
After taking a bus to visit Qindao, I returned to the Central Hotel only to find that the guards were still there. A group of people had not dispersed in the lobby and were still interrogating the hotel guests.
Everyone went upstairs and returned to the room without saying anything else.
In the middle of the night, I suddenly heard an exclamation, then a loud noise, and only heard a "bang" sound, like the sound of a heavy object hitting the ground.
At first, no one was ready to meddle in other people's business, but they were disturbed by a sharper shout and couldn't sleep.
"It's dead! It's dead! Someone jumped off the building!" Someone shouted in the courtyard.
Since I couldn't sleep, I naturally had no choice but to dress up and go to see what happened. Of course, this was a matter between the four men, and there was no need for women to come forward. It was better for women to avoid bloody scenes.
There were already some people gathered in the courtyard of the hotel. Since the lockdown was only implemented in the afternoon, most of the guests were unable to go out and stayed in the hotel. Now that they were shocked to hear about the murder, most of them were in a state of panic.
Because the police were nearby, they quickly set up a cordon, and many people gathered around the cordon.
The captain of the police station never expected that this errand with the Party Affairs Investigation Department would turn into a murder case.
Han Zhesheng did not expect to arrest someone and take his life, but he was more concerned about the identity of the deceased.
Boss Ma and the three brothers watched from a distance, purely because they were disturbed from their sweet dreams, and they were just like a bunch of people.
I saw a man with his head down and his feet in a pool of blood in the middle of the cordon in the east of the atrium of the Central Hotel. Oh no, for him now, the ground beneath him seemed to have merged into one, and he didn't even twitch. , already exhausted.
The police and people from the Party Affairs Investigation Department entered the cordon and turned the deceased over. Some people with weak stomachs could no longer stand the bloody scene and ran to the scene to vomit.
The deceased's face was a bit bloody, but the clothes boss looked familiar to him - wasn't he the guy who was slapped on Zhongshan Road at noon? The body shape also looks somewhat similar.
Boss Ma thought in confusion, didn't this person not show up when the hotel was cordoned off this afternoon? Why is there such an amazing jump here? It’s true that people cannot be judged by their appearance.
When Han Zhesheng saw this person, he almost fainted. This person was very important to them. Unexpectedly, everything he did in the morning was wasted, but he was reimbursed directly in the evening. He really wanted to cry without tears.
Fortunately, he was not a newbie. After calming down, he immediately ordered the captain of the police station: "All hotel guests and staff are not allowed to leave. All guests must return to their rooms. All records must be asked. All rooms must be checked again." search!"
Everyone has to ask for transcripts, which is an extremely troublesome process, but the case is both a murder case and a confidential party investigation. No matter how troublesome it is, it has to be handled. The police captain and Han Zhesheng's subordinates can only work separately and record confessions for everyone. .
Boss Ma signaled to the brothers, and everyone quickly returned to their respective rooms. Now that a murder had occurred, even though he had a special status, he couldn't embarrass the police. Anyway, he told the truth.
As soon as he returned to the door of the room, he saw a crack opened in the room opposite. Miss Liu asked sleepily through the crack: "Is something big happening?"
"Oh, sister, you are so big-hearted, you are so heartbroken!" Boss Ma said a little depressed.
"Oh." MISS Liu replied and the door on the opposite side closed, which impressed Boss Ma.
It didn't take long for the police to knock on the door from room to room, search and ask for transcripts, and soon arrived at Boss Ma's room.
The person who came was not the police, but Han Zhesheng.
"Boss Ma, I'm sorry for bothering you, but I hope Haihan will find a reason for everything." Han Zhesheng said politely, still with a dead look on his face.
"Mr. Han, you're welcome. This is business and I understand." There was no emotion in Ma Xiaoguang's tone.
"As usual, what was Boss Ma doing when the incident happened at night?" Han Zhesheng asked.
"What are you doing? Sleeping. By the way, there is this person in the same room. By the way, Xiao Lu, come here..." Boss Ma remembered that Xiao Lu was there.
"Cooperate with Chief Han and tell us the situation." Boss Ma ordered.
After that, he went to drink alone and chatted briefly. He didn't want to get close to the people from the Party Affairs Investigation Department.
He finished the question quickly, and seemed to know that the room opposite was MISS Liu's room, so he asked Boss Ma: "Across the way is Ms. Liu who is with Boss Ma..."
"Yes." Boss Ma was naturally unwilling to say another word to Han Zhesheng.
"Then..." Han Zhe asked stiffly.
"Xiao Lu, go and ask Miss Liu to come over." Boss Ma naturally ordered his men to go about their business.
MISS Liu, who looked unhappy, came to Boss Ma's room and cooperated with Chief Han's questioning.
MISS Liu Ke was not as polite as Boss Ma. After sitting down, he was fixing his nails by himself, which was almost stained, and he didn't pay any attention to the grown men in the room.
"Ahem, MISS Liu, what were you doing when the murder happened?" Han Zhesheng asked after coughing dryly.
"Sleep! What, what else does Chief Han want to know? How come your Party Affairs Investigation Department has become Xiaobalazi (dialect: minor role), who can handle cats and dogs, and now he is doing odd jobs for the police station?" MISS Liu The words were mixed with guns and sticks, and the vitriol made Chief Han embarrassed and unable to get angry. Everyone got to know another different MISS Liu.
Soon the other questions came to an end, and his men knocked on the door to revive Han Zhesheng.
At this moment, I suddenly heard another rush of footsteps in the corridor, and someone asked eagerly: "Where is Team Leader Han?"
After a while, one of his subordinates - the one in the blue tunic suit in the afternoon, almost rolled in and reported: "Team... team leader, died again..."
Han Zhesheng almost fainted. These idiots couldn't even report the situation, so what else could they do for food?
"Speak clearly!" Han Zhesheng said while holding back a mouthful of blood.
"On the top floor, another person in the private room on the top floor has died..." he replied in a trembling voice in a blue tunic suit.
