"Yes, who do you think brought you to Sakura Country?"
the head of the consulate asked rhetorically.
"Does the Prime Minister have anything to convey to me?"
The head of the consulate began to repeat the Prime Minister’s words:
"The impact of this case is very bad. Since this case involves the Liming Group, we will never tolerate it. Hu Zhengli shot Lu Lei, an important member of the Liming Group, which caused a sensation, and now it involves the Liming Group. It is not impossible for Hu Zhengli to investigate. But There must be three rules: Hu Zhengli’s arrival in Sakura Country represents the face of China, and you must think twice before doing anything.”
"The Dawn Group has been entrenched in Ping'an City for many years and knows many of China's secrets. If it is leaked in Sakura Country, it will have a certain degree of impact. Therefore, the Dawn Group must learn to shut up at critical times."
"I have seen this child Guo Shanyi since he was a child. Now that something like this has happened, his parents are very anxious to put him to rest. So if Hu Zhengli wants to solve this case, we only have one week. Regardless of whether he succeeds in this week, We can no longer continue the investigation.”
After hearing the consulate director's retelling, Hu Zhengli didn't speak for a long time.
He knew very well how difficult it was for the Prime Minister, and he also knew what the killing of Guo Shanyi in Sakura Country meant.
So he looked at the head of the consulate in front of him and asked, "Chief Consul, how many days are there?"
"Don't worry! The time given to you starts from the first day you come to Sakura Country, so it's seven days for you."
When Hu Zhengli heard what the head of the consulate said, he knew what was going on.
But at this moment he asked again: "Chief Consul, I understand what the Prime Minister means. So what do you need to explain?"
The head of the consulate felt very satisfied when he heard Hu Zhengli's question. He originally thought that Hu Zhengli would leave here after hearing what the Prime Minister conveyed. However, he didn't expect that when he asked this question, he suddenly felt that the candidate chosen this time was not wrong.
"My meaning is actually very simple. There is no unnecessary meaning. It can be summed up in just eight words."
"Straighten your back and get rid of the beetles."
"Do you understand these eight words?"
Hu Zhengli was thinking about how to reply. When the head of the consulate saw the confused Hu Zhengli, he explained: "As Chinese people in the Sakura Country, we must straighten our backs and solve this case. No matter who is involved, we must eliminate the beetles and eliminate the evil."
"I see!"
The head of the consulate nodded: "Now that you understand, go back and investigate this case first! If you have any difficulties, just come to me. As a Chinese, I will definitely help if I can."
Lu Lei, Mi Li and Hu Zhengli returned to the police car again, and this time there was a trace of determination in Hu Zhengli's eyes. He knew that this case must be solved in his hands.
They were silent along the way, and the policeman quickly sent them to a hotel.
This hotel is the hotel where Guo Shanyi died. It was originally the most luxurious hotel in Kyoto and had the most guests. However, someone happened to be killed here, and the deceased was the son of a member of the Central Committee of China. No matter how luxurious it is, it cannot change the loss of guests.
For a time, the luxurious hotel became very deserted. A cleaning lady kept mopping the floor in the hall, making the originally smooth floor brighter. At the bar was a very young and beautiful woman, dozing out of boredom.
"jingle!"
As the sound rang out, the bar counter suddenly looked forward and saw three Chinese people standing in front of them. One of the three Chinese people was a woman.
At this time, Lu Lei stepped forward and said to the bar in front of him: "Please open three standard rooms for me."
A smile suddenly appeared on the face of the three Chinese people who suddenly appeared at the bar, and then she kept looking for something on the computer.
After a while, Lu Lei asked in front of him at the bar: "Sir, is the eleventh floor okay?"
Hu Zhengli, who was behind Lu Lei, suddenly stood up: "I want to ask, are you still open on the 13th floor?"
Just as Hu Zhengli's voice fell, the scene instantly became very quiet.
The cleaning lady stopped what she was doing, and the smile on the bartender's face instantly became stiff.
The two people looked at Hu Zhengli at the same time.
But Hu Zhengli had no idea that his words could attract a special person.
"Sir, may I ask why you are here?"
Hu Zhengli followed the sound and saw a man in a black suit appearing in front of him. He had a very standard Sakura Country appearance. He was not very tall, but he had a calm and powerful temperament.
“Before asking someone, it is the minimum etiquette to introduce yourself.”
Faced with such a question, Hu Zhengli refused on the spot.
Facing such a strong Hu Zhengli, the man immediately knew that he was wrong, and immediately bowed at a ninety-degree angle and said: "I'm sorry! I am the manager of this hotel. Guests have also seen that our hotel is very deserted. In fact, We were not like this originally, it was just a murder case on the thirteenth floor. The police did not respond accordingly. Gradually, my place became deserted."
When Hu Zhengli saw the manager's sincere apology, he didn't care: "To be honest, we came from China to investigate this case."
Just as his voice fell, the manager suddenly understood: "No wonder you guys came here to book a room."
Then he said to the bar behind him: "Miriko, please give us three rooms on the thirteenth floor."
"But……"
"No but, do you want to do it or not?"
After all, something happened to Mr. Guo on the thirteenth floor, and there are many vacant rooms on the thirteenth floor. The bar quickly booked three rooms on the thirteenth floor.
Lu Lei took the room card, but Hu Zhengli didn't want to go back to the room at the moment. He handed all the luggage into Lu Lei's hands.
"Lu Lei, take my luggage back to the room."
Then he looked at the manager: "Manager, can you take me to see the surveillance video of the deceased coming here?"
Lu Lei knew that Hu Zhengli had officially begun investigating the murder of Guo Shanyi. So he was very obedient and took his luggage with Mi Li to the thirteenth floor.
But Hu Zhengli was led by the manager to a small, dark room.
The interior of this gloomy room was pitch black, with only the surveillance screen flashing on the monitor in the corner.
At this time, the manager introduced to Hu Zhengli: "When the Chinese people were killed, the police came to investigate the surveillance video and took a copy away. The police told me at the time that there was no use in keeping this video. But I know that the death of Chinese people in my hotel was very sensational. Our hotel was also affected by this incident, so I decided to secretly save the video at that time."
As the manager spoke, he used his flashlight to take out a USB flash drive from the drawer on the side.
