The captain looked at the ordinary dagger, put it aside, and then continued to focus on the bloody chest of the deceased.
He lifted up the left half of his coat that was soaked in blood.
The adjutant looked up at him.
Then, the captain pressed his fingers on the hidden pocket on the upper left side of his coat. After touching a hard object, he reached in and took it out.
It was a gold-red badge stained with blood.
"This is..." The adjutant's eyes narrowed, and his originally relaxed expression became serious: "The Brilliant Corps of the First District? Is this person sent by the First District?"
The captain didn't say anything, his fingers rubbed the hexagonal badge, and the blood stained his white gloves red.
The corps badge of the Thirteenth District is oval in shape, and the pattern is in the shape of an epee. The army is also commanded by the General Military Mansion.
But unlike the Thirteenth District, the First District has a military-political system. The military is fully responsible for the Council of Representatives, so they are often called the Glorious Council of Representatives.
Therefore, if someone from the Huise Corps appears here, they will definitely be appointed by the First District Council of Representatives.
The adjutant looked solemn and said thoughtfully: "It is impossible for people from the Huise Corps to appear here for no reason. We have not received an entry application during this period. Could he... be the contact of the spy who stole the secret last night? Human right?"
The captain suddenly raised his head and looked at him: "Why did you see him?"
They haven't investigated the identity of the person last night, but they have just received information from a secret source. Today, the two people will conduct a handover event at the five-star hotel.
But before the army could take action, the five-star hotel suddenly called again. Someone died for unknown reasons.
Naturally, the army would not let the police get involved at this time, and simply took over the matter. What's more, a case suddenly appeared in the hotel, which looked weird no matter how you looked at it.
"So..." the adjutant said firmly, "could it be that our actions have been exposed, so someone took action first?"
"Then they should also capture the people and bring them to us." The captain said calmly.
"What if the other party has other purposes?" the adjutant said immediately.
The captain didn't speak, he lowered his eyebrows as if thinking.
At this time, the person in charge of the hotel brought the two first witnesses over. The captain who noticed the movement put away the blood-stained badge with his backhand.
The waitress lowered her head and stood timidly by the door.
The fashionably dressed girl gathered up her rabbit fur shawl and was invited by the hotel manager with a face full of reluctance. Also coming with her was Manager Zhang from Tengxing Commercial Bank.
Manager Zhang is a slightly stout middle-aged man, with the popular elite slicked back hair, wearing a straight black suit, and a gold-plated pen on the left breast pocket. He is tall and strong, and he looks quite imposing when he stands there. The girl he held in his arms was even more charming.
Both of them looked dissatisfied, but they didn't dare to say anything when they faced the captain's cold and indifferent eyes and looked at the gun on his waist.
"Xiao He, if the captain wants to ask you something, tell me everything you know!" The person in charge of the hotel did not dare to scold the guest, so he said directly to the waitress.
"Yes, yes!" the waitress Wei Wei kept saying.
She seems to be very afraid of the captain. After all, District 13 is basically ruled by the iron-blooded military. People here may be more afraid of this decisive captain than the title of the general in charge of the army.
He is a knife in the general's hand, cutting wherever he points and never misses!
Suddenly, the girl sneered and said, "What else do we know? Just now she took me to the public toilet, and when I came in I saw someone lying here. It's really unlucky!"
The adjutant raised his eyebrows: "Are you a guest staying in Room 203? I remember that the hotel room should be equipped with a bathroom."
"My man was downstairs with the key card. When I came out, I accidentally locked the door and couldn't get in. I just wanted to go to the bathroom..." The girl said this with a hint of discomfort on her face.
"Yes...that's it."
The waiter also said at this time: "This lady asked me about the location of the bathroom, so I took her there, and then I saw... that."
She pointed carefully at the corpse behind the captain.
"That's all? What about the murderer? Did you see everything?" The adjutant showed dissatisfaction and threatened: "This deceased person may be related to the secrets of our military region. I advise you not to hide anything, otherwise it will be revealed when the time comes. What problem can you not afford!"
The captain suddenly glanced at the adjutant.
Hearing this, the girl opposite was also angry: "What does your military region's secrets have to do with me? Do I have to bear the responsibility if I just pass by?!"
The adjutant sneered: "Of course you don't need to be held responsible for just passing by, but not reporting it is another matter."
"Are you threatening me?!" The girl frowned angrily, then turned around and lay on the chest of the man behind her, saying aggrievedly: "Look, my dear, he actually threatened me~"
Manager Zhang patted her shoulder gently and comforted her with a warm voice. Then he looked at the captain, and then at the adjutant with his arms crossed and a look of arrogance on his face.
He smiled and said: "My lords, please forgive me. This is the first time Beauty has followed me to District 13, so she may not understand the rules. But she really won't lie. Since she didn't see anything, she probably didn't see anything."
He spoke with a slightly heavier tone and looked at the adjutant with a smile on his face.
The adjutant crossed his arms and tilted his head to look at them: "Mr. Zhang's words alone cannot make the decision. Since these two ladies are important witnesses, they may suffer retaliation from the deceased's associates, so why not start with Leave it to us to protect you.”
Manager Zhang frowned and his face darkened.
The waiter just thought about it but didn't dare to say anything. The girl was so angry that her beautiful eyes widened a bit.
"Why are you imprisoning me! Who believes that he has any accomplices? Is it because the military can't find the murderer, so you just want to deal with it casually?!" She shouted angrily.
Because of the fierce resistance, the door of the guest room on the second floor adjacent to the public toilet was opened, and someone stuck his head out to quietly observe the situation outside.
Then I saw outside the corridor, there were soldiers standing every five meters on both sides. There were three people crowded at the door of the public toilet, the hotel manager, the waiter, and a man in a black suit with half of his body exposed.
I don’t know what happened there, but the woman’s voice was very fierce.
The adjutant picked his ears impatiently, but the captain remained expressionless and unmoved by the demonic voice. It wasn't until the woman got tired of scolding that he looked up at Manager Zhang, who had a dark face.
The captain said calmly: "When you come to District 13, you will do things according to the regulations of District 13. If Manager Zhang is not satisfied, you can join us."
The girl looked up in shock at the man behind her, with a look of grievance and pleading.
Manager Zhang was dissatisfied, but he touched the girl's cheek and said warmly: "Forget it, the captain is right. Regardless of whether this person has accomplices or is the murderer, he may pose a threat to you. You Let them protect you first.”
The adjutant raised his eyebrows proudly.
The matter was a foregone conclusion, and Manager Zhang had given up resisting, so she was even more helpless. The girl glared at the adjutant, turned around and left quickly.
The waitress was at a loss until two soldiers came over and led them into a vacant guest room temporarily.
After all the irrelevant people left, the captain turned to look at the adjutant, stared at him with dark eyes and said, "Why...are you keeping these two people here?"
There seemed to be a pause in his tone.
The adjutant said matter-of-factly: "Because, if the person behind him really has any purpose, our control of the person will definitely make the other person afraid and think we have discovered something."
"You want to take the opportunity to lure people out?" Captain Du narrowed his eyes.
That said, it seems that there is really no problem.
If that person is still in the hotel and really has something to stay with.
The adjutant nodded confidently: "Yes, no matter what, there is no loss for us in this choice, so we can just take it as a matter of course."
The captain responded lightly, rubbed the golden and red badge in his hand, turned around and left.
Diagonally opposite is Room 211, which is the residence of the deceased in the public toilet.
After using the hotel's master card to open the door, the two walked in and then ordered a soldier to start searching the room.
You don't need to do this kind of thing yourself, but the adjutant is obviously a lively and active person, and he looked around the room.
"The deceased had the habit of reading the morning newspaper." The adjutant said casually, picking up the newspaper placed on the sofa and coffee table.
Two morning papers, one from yesterday and one from today.
Most of the morning newspapers in the 13th District reported military incidents, with very few people's livelihood incidents, because under the iron-blooded suppression of the army, public security was pretty good.
The celebrity gathering that will be held at the end of the month is also a big topic of conversation recently.
But now that group of celebrities are trapped in a five-star hotel.
It didn't take long for the soldier to take out the deceased's suitcase. When he opened it, he found that except for the clothes, there were no extra unusual items inside.
Oh, and a medical record.
The captain reached out, picked up the medical record issued by a certain hospital, and opened it to read.
The deceased suffered from a serious lung disease during his lifetime, and the will recorded in the medical record came from more than one doctor. It seemed that the deceased had visited multiple hospitals for treatment.
The most recent medical consultation date above was October 20th, which was two days ago.
The date of the day before the deceased moved in.
The captain tilted his head and suddenly asked: "Are there any doctors staying in the five-star hotels recently?"
The adjutant came over to look at the medical records and said, "I don't know if there are any doctors, but the medical standards in our Thirteenth District are indeed very good, and this month's celebrity gathering should also attract doctors from other places to come over for academic discussions."
District 13 is located on the border, making it easy to travel between the two countries. Therefore, celebrity gatherings usually last for two months, which is equivalent to the annual social season.
The captain put down the medical record in silence, emptied the contents of the suitcase, picked it up and weighed it, and then paused.
"Smash it." The captain said calmly.
The adjutant frowned.
The soldiers absolutely obeyed the instructions and staged the unpacking of the suitcase with their bare hands, violently smashing it into pieces!
There was a banging in the room, and the sound spread directly from the closed door to the corridor.
Immediately afterwards, a gun fell out from the cracks of the broken box.
The adjutant's brows jumped: "You should be more careful next time. If you hit it like this, it explodes accidentally."
The captain didn't say anything. He picked up the gun and inspected it carefully. Then he pinned it on the left side of his waist as a matter of course. Suddenly, he had two guns hanging on his body.
Then, the two looked at other things in room 211. After seeing no unnecessary abnormalities, they turned around and left again.
Now it's time to check out the residents.
…
…
Time passed bit by bit.
The guests who were left in the lobby were restless and could not vent their anger on the army, so the hotel waiters were scolded bloody.
For special reasons, the hotel decided to provide free meals to the guests, hoping to satisfy their anger with delicious food.
After all, the five-star hotel is the most high-end hotel in the Thirteenth District. Both the service and the food are excellent, otherwise there would not be so many celebrities willing to come and go here.
The signature refreshments here did make everyone's anger calm down for a while.
In the corner of the booth on the left, the noble woman sitting alone here tasted the food quite calmly, turning a blind eye to the soldiers who were strictly guarding her around.
From beginning to end, she didn't show any strong emotions about today's events.
The woman held on to the knife and carefully and slowly cut the beef on the plate. Her movements were noble and elegant, which was incompatible with the tense atmosphere around her.
It wasn't until she finished the entire piece of delicate beef and wiped her mouth that she stood up and walked to the front desk.
"Hello, I'll take the room card for 304," the woman said.
"Okay, please show me your ID." The waiter at the front desk responded immediately.
The woman handed over her ID, and after confirming that the person staying was correct, the front desk handed her the room card stored here.
Some guests are worried that they will lose their room card, so they store it at the front desk for easy access when they go out.
The woman took the room card and went up the stairs on the left. This is the staircase closest to rooms 1 to 6. As for rooms 7 to 11, they are in the middle no matter which way they go.
After reaching the third floor, the soldiers guarding the stairs stopped her.
"What?" The woman raised her eyebrows, and her expression was quite dignified even when she was serious.
"Please show me your room card." The soldier said expressionlessly.
"Here." The woman didn't bother. She held the room card with her fingertips to reveal the word 304. The soldier took back his hand after seeing it.
Then, the woman walked towards her room, but when passing by 302, she saw the door open, and two officers were inside directing a soldier to search the room.
The homeowner was lying on the ground with a bruised nose and a swollen face.
The woman stood at the door calmly and watched for a while, until the captain turned to look at him, and the two looked at each other expressionlessly.
A smile appeared on the woman's stern face: "I have met the captain."
After saying that, she turned around and left. She went straight to room 304 and swiped her card to open the door.
