It's early morning now.
Five or six hours had passed since the last meal, and the entire five-star hotel had also spent almost nine hours under military blockade. The remaining guests were in as depressed a state as possible.
Fear, torture, death, and all kinds of emotions that challenge the bottom line of reason are filling their bodies and minds. Those who can persist until now and still not collapse are those with good perseverance.
In the same way, I am hungry even when I should be hungry.
Xu Shuo would not treat his stomach badly, so after it rang, he promptly asked to go to the kitchen to eat something.
The special envoy has a Buddhist mentality now, and he has nothing to do, so he might as well go down and have something to eat.
As for the captain, he simply wanted to go outside to deal with some matters, so he came down with him.
The secretary was handling the affairs of the entire hotel. The guests who accidentally died in the previous chaos were sent out directly, and then directed to clean up the blood stains and continue to investigate suspicious areas.
However, the strong smell of blood and death seemed to have soaked into this hotel.
After dawn, whether this hotel can stay open is a question.
When there were no power outages or gun battles, the hotel manager would have dared to complain in front of the military district, but now, he didn't dare to say a word.
Even politicians and celebrities can die, let alone a commoner like him?
After watching the captain leave from the main entrance in awe, the hotel manager looked at the two guests in the kitchen and said with a wry smile: "When this happened, the dinner we prepared before has now expired."
Xu Shuo waved his hand and said warmly: "It's okay, as long as you can eat it, I'll make it myself if I still have the ingredients."
"Okay, okay!"
This was the person who had been with the captain before. How could the person in charge of the hotel dare to refuse and directly handed over the entire kitchen to him.
The special envoy was holding a piece of dessert in his hand. After taking a bite, he didn't feel the taste changed and started eating it directly.
The expiration date mentioned by the hotel manager probably means that the food has passed its best tasting period. This kind of big hotel catering to high-end people likes to care about these things.
While eating, she looked at Dr. Kong and was a little surprised to see him rolling up his sleeves to wash vegetables: "Can you, a doctor, still do the work of a chef?"
"How fresh." Xu Shuo said, "I, a doctor, can still get sick."
The envoy shrugged and wandered around the kitchen looking for something to eat.
After the food was almost done, we wandered around the hall full of mourners and watched the guests who were being treated for their injuries by the hotel waiters.
At this time, Xu Shuo suddenly said to the person in charge of the hotel next to him: "I think the food you prepared before is still edible. Why don't you just heat it up and let the officers and guests outside have a dinner. They are still here He probably didn’t eat anything either.”
The person in charge of the hotel was startled when he heard this. He must not be able to make the decision, so he went out and asked the secretary of the military region.
He had been busy sealing the hotel. In fact, from noon to early morning, the secretary had not eaten for almost ten hours, and of course the soldiers guarding the hotel were the same.
That stomach is really empty and can no longer be empty.
If an enemy does appear, he probably won't have the energy to fight.
So after thinking about it, the secretary took the initiative and arranged for the soldiers to take turns changing guard duty, giving everyone five minutes to fill their stomachs.
The person in charge of the hotel also hurriedly put out all the dinners that had been prepared before. A group of people took turns eating in the hotel lobby under the faint light of flashlights.
This scene diluted a lot of the depressing atmosphere.
It was also at this time that a figure quietly turned into the kitchen.
But after he quickly looked around the entire kitchen, he didn't see anyone here. Just when he was confused, Dr. Kong walked out of the freezer at the side door.
There was also a plate of scrambled eggs with vegetables in his hand.
Coming out of the freezer with a plate of stir-fried vegetables... something seems a little off?
"You came."
When Xu Shuo saw a man wearing a military uniform appearing, he was not surprised at all. He just looked at the other person's face for a while.
The male waiter looked at the hall and asked warily: "Did you know I would come?"
"You just finished doing something for me, so don't you have to come here to get information?" Xu Shuo raised his eyebrows.
"..." It seems like this.
"What about the information promised to me?" the male waiter asked with a straight face.
"Don't worry, how about you taste the scrambled eggs for me first, and then I'll tell you?" Xu Shuo pointed to the plate in his hand and looked at him with burning eyes.
"Don't eat!"
The male waiter refused immediately.
Do you know if this thing is poisonous?
Xu Shuo put the scrambled eggs aside with some regret, and then said: "Okay, let me tell you, your contact person is Manager Zhang from Tengxing Commercial Bank. He should be in the basement of Room 3, Lane 36, Xinye Middle Street. inside."
The male waiter made careful notes in his mind, but there was still some doubt on his face: "Is it really there?"
Are you trying to trick him?
Could it be the headquarters of another organization?
"believe it or not."
Xu Shuo said as he subconsciously picked up a piece of scrambled eggs with chopsticks, but put it down calmly before eating it.
The male waiter still looked hesitant.
After thinking about it, Xu Shuo said kindly: "That place is the temporary stronghold of the Huise Corps. It has very high confidentiality and concealment. You can hide for a while after you go there and wait until this matter is over. I have said so much , in fact, I just want to thank you for helping me deliver the message."
The male waiter gave him a strange look and said nothing.
After getting the method to open the secret room, he turned around and left the kitchen. Some soldiers outside saw him coming out, so they excused themselves to go to the kitchen to find other delicious food.
Although the discipline of the military region is very high, it is nothing special if one or two characters appear occasionally.
The secretary even took the opportunity to walk around the kitchen, pick up the desserts from the dining cart, and eat them instead of sharing the meal with the soldiers in the hall.
"Doctor Kong, you seem to have been following the captain tonight?" the secretary said casually.
"After all, I am a doctor, and the captain always has needs." Xu Shuo said and glanced at him, then picked up the plate: "Sir, do you want to try the new dish I just made?"
"Oh? What is it?" The secretary came over to observe.
Xu Shuo brought the scrambled eggs over, stared at him and said earnestly: "This is a medicinal diet that I made in conjunction with ancient medicine. It is of great benefit to improving physical fitness."
The secretary was slightly moved when he heard this.
After all, he already knew from the previous investigation that Dr. Kong was indeed a great doctor with real talent and knowledge. Maybe it was because of his medical skills that he stayed with the captain?
Just because of his position as an adjutant, the secretary always felt that his position seemed a bit unfavorable, so he inevitably became more hostile to his new colleagues.
Now that I think about it carefully, his and Dr. Kong’s careers are completely unrelated!
So the secretary nodded reservedly, picked up a piece of scrambled egg with the chopsticks next to him, and planned to taste it.
But just when he opened his mouth, the captain's questioning voice suddenly came from the hall outside. He was so startled that he quickly put down his chopsticks, turned around and hurried back.
Xu Shuo: "..."
In the hall, the secretary quickly explained the somewhat messy scene to the captain.
Fortunately, the soldiers had almost taken turns to eat, and the captain didn't seem to mind giving the soldiers time to eat, but directly gave some instructions to the secretary.
Afterwards, the soldiers who had been guarding the hotel door retreated in an orderly manner, and the defense around the hotel was completely relaxed.
In order to prevent the Council of Representatives from becoming suspicious, the hotel no longer needs to be sealed off. Therefore, except for some really suspicious people who are still not allowed to leave, other guests can leave on their own.
To some extent, this is good news.
Good news for guests stuck here.
The hotel that was lifeless just now suddenly became full of vitality. People who were already depressed all cheered up and rushed out of the hotel without even looking back. They were reborn!
They even howled in the rain and wind outside, which shows how depressed they were before!
However, they didn't know that the chaos outside would not be much better than the hotel.
Xu Shuo had no intention of leaving and took a bite of the dessert from the dining car without interest.
The Captain's figure suddenly appeared at the door of the kitchen. He looked at him expressionlessly and said, "Come to the military area with me later and bring your medicine box."
Xu Shuo was stunned for a moment and responded. Then he thought of something and picked up his scrambled eggs and asked, "Captain, aren't you hungry?"
The captain turned around and left without looking back.
"Speaking of which, I have something to report to you."
Xu Shuo followed up and said in a hesitant tone: "I seemed to have seen the waiter in the hotel just now, the same person I told you about before. He was wearing military uniform and wandered around the kitchen, as if he was looking for someone. what."
The captain paused, and the atmosphere suddenly became stagnant.
…
The reason why the Captain left just now was because the voices of protest from the Council of Representatives had already reached the military area.
However, the general's response was still tepid, and when financial threats were made, he only responded superficially.
If the general was still a little wary before and didn't want to get too stiff with the congressmen, but now, he just wants to quickly eradicate this bunch of old things that have been corrupted by money and power.
The Assembly Hall building is guarded by another army. If something happens to the Assembly members, those old guys will definitely move their belongings immediately. Therefore, they must control the Assembly Hall as quickly as possible and ensure that no one takes the opportunity to leave. Message sent to three districts.
After weighing the situation, the general decided to open five-star hotels to relax their vigilance.
Anyway, there is nothing to investigate in the hotel now. The map has been taken away and the spies have escaped. What else is left?
It's just an empty shell.
What matters now is the war with the north and the armies of other districts that are eyeing the surrounding areas.
But, the captain's way of thinking can sometimes be very neurotic, and he is quite paranoid about a certain unfinished matter.
So he temporarily gave up the idea of rushing to the north to support the general in order to end the battle there as soon as possible. Instead, he stared directly at Xu Shuo with an unclear tone: "Have you met him again?"
Xu Shuo scratched his head: "It's not just me, your clerk has also encountered it, and all the soldiers outside have encountered it."
Captain: "..."
After asking the soldiers at the door for a while, the captain roughly understood - the other party swaggered around in front of them and even had a meal! However, just because he was wearing a military uniform, no one felt anything unusual!
Are you all blind with such an obvious sight? !
Now, the soldier has long since disappeared. The sergeant who saw him said that he claimed to be a soldier on duty in the backyard, but now he couldn't find that person in the backyard.
At this point, the soldier who realized something suddenly fell silent, and faced the captain with a cold face in fear, showing no emotion at all but with a murderous intent.
He shivered with fear, fearing that he would be shot.
Xu Shuo also felt that the captain's anger level was almost full, so he silently put down the plate of scrambled eggs with vegetables.
After the secretary dismissed the guests in the hotel, he came over to see if the superior had any more instructions. As a result, he was met with a cold look from the captain, and he was instantly confused and frightened.
Could it be that... he shouldn't have given the soldiers food just now?
The captain looked at him meaningfully, and then said: "Arrange manpower to conduct a comprehensive search within three miles of the hotel."
When the captain went to chase Manager Zhang before, he found that the opponent's route seemed to be approaching the five-star hotel - instead of evacuating further, he was still lingering nearby.
This means that there may be other targets near the hotel.
And now, the hotel waiter who is suspected to be related to Manager Zhang has returned to the hotel again. No matter what the reason is, there must be something around here that attracts them!
If you get it, you may have evacuated. If you don't get it, you will definitely stay nearby!
Regardless of whether this is true or not, prepare first!
After the arrangements were made, the captain looked at Dr. Kong with pity and said in a serious tone: "Since you recognized that person at that time, why didn't you report it earlier?!"
Xu Shuo sighed helplessly: "I'm afraid that if I tell him, he will kill me directly. I have no ability to resist. When I get the chance, the man has disappeared. I'm worried that I have recognized the wrong person. After all, his face It looks a little different than before.”
Will the other party disguise himself?
The captain squinted his eyes slightly and glanced dangerously at Dr. Kong. The suspicion and distrust had already surfaced.
But even so, he arranged a search operation.
Xu Shuo ate the dessert unmoved, silently praying that someone would be found soon, and then welcomed the captain to kill him!
…
…
A certain person who was remembered shivered when he arrived at the temporary base.
Suddenly, the male waiter deeply suspected that there was a trap here!
After all, the house across the alley looked as if it had been run over by a tank. The wall tiles were blasted out, the floor was torn apart, and the yard seemed to have been bombed. It was a mess and full of smoke!
Hand-thrown ammunition cannot kill the captain, but it can blow up a house.
The male waiter quietly turned over and entered the room. He did not rush to find the mechanism to open the basement, but hid in the corner and waited for a long time.
Time passed slowly, and it was still silent here.
There was nothing unusual, nor did an army suddenly appear.
Could it be that that guy was really kind this time and didn't dig a trap?
