Chapter 176: The Disaster of the Pond Fish

"What do you mean? Master Hou, please speak directly. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" Gao Jin touched his shiny bald head, a little puzzled.

At the same time, Yu Jingbo was sitting on the single sofa, unconsciously rubbing his black trousers. Nan Zeyu, on the other hand, sat on the other side, holding a pen in his hand, looking absent-minded.

Wan Guohou stood near his desk with a solemn expression. "The last time Crown held a large-scale banquet was in September, and that time the partner hotel was the Shojeon House. This time, I have checked the 'Your-Table' in collaboration with Crown, and there are no employees who overlap with Koteiya. In other words, the people of 'Your-Table' are coming to the crown for the first time. ”

"As you may have noticed, the deceased was abandoned in the bushes and his clothes were taken away by the murderer. I speculate that even if the Ney Ying had brought the killer in, the killer would not have been able to enter the main Crown building from the front because he was not on the invitation list. So, he killed an employee of 'Your-Table' and changed into his clothes, and Li Dai Tao stiffened. ”

Wan Guohou picked up the wine glass and shook it a few times, but he didn't drink it. "It is worth noting that the bush where the deceased was located happened to be not far from the parking lot. Perhaps, after the murderer came out of the parking lot, he happened to meet Yang Jianhao, so he dragged him behind the bushes and killed him as planned, and changed into his uniform. In addition, the pickup van is parked at the side gate closest to the main crown building, which is also the most convenient to come and go. Suffice it to say that they had known the general structure of the crown in advance, planned the best course of action, and thus proved that their guilt had come to the crown, and more than once. ”

"If you look at it this way, if there is an internal response, it should be hidden among the guests. Gao Jin said.

"Yes. Wan Guohou nodded, "Every entrance to the crown adheres to the principle of 'strict entry and wide exit', and it is difficult for the murderer to blend in without an invitation and not a 'Your-Table' person." ”

That's why he killed a hotel employee and changed into his clothes. Nan Zeyu said, while playing with the pen thoughtfully.

"Not bad. Wan Guohou stroked his beard, "I'm curious about how he approached the hotel staff, after all, he needs to enter the crown before he can get close to the people of the 'Your-Table'. ”

"Aren't there two murderers in total, and how did the other one get in?" Nan Zeyu asked suddenly.

"My people are looking into it. Wan Guohou said.

"Master Hou, let me say something, don't be angry, could it be that someone under you has been bribed......" Yu Jingbo said cautiously.

Wan Guohou said arrogantly: "Impossible. He looked at the three men, "I'll be able to prove it right away." He raised his wrist and touched the cufflinks, "C4, you can call someone to come to the study." ”

Two minutes later, E1 walked into the study.

Wan Guohou said solemnly: "E1, if I need you to die for me now, what will you do?"

E1 bowed respectfully, "How do you want me to die?"

"With a knife. ”

E1 pulled a dagger from his waist and slashed it around his neck without hesitation. Wan Guohou immediately stepped forward with an arrow and knocked out his sword.

E1 looked at Wan Guohou blankly, "What's the matter, Master Hou?"

"It's okay, you're doing well. Wan Guohou patted him lightly on the shoulder, "I am grateful for everything you have done for me. ”

"I should have said that. A look of awe appeared on E1's face, "Without you, my life would have been gone a long time ago." ”

Everyone else watched in amazement.

E1's waist was straight, as if he was ready to go to the trouble for the Marquis of Wanguo, although the latter did not ask him of anything more.

"I don't quite understand, Master Hou, do you mean that your subordinates can die for you? Yu Jingbo pushed his glasses.

"E1, you can answer. Wan Guohou said.

"Mr. Yu, our lives are Hou Ye's. If you want to buy us, trade your life for it. E1's words were sharp, but his gaze was calm, as if he were saying something simple.

"Alright, you go down first. Wan Guohou waved his hand, and E1 bowed and retreated.

"It's amazing. Nanzawa couldn't help but say, "I seem to see a bushido spirit." ”

"The death of a soldier for a confidant is not necessarily bushido. Wan Guohou said lightly, "Now, do you understand, Nei should not appear among my people." A meaningful smile appeared on his face, "The most important thing is that, taking a step back, even if any of my people have a different heart, they won't do it in this way." ”

"Why?" asked Yu Jingbo curiously.

"For I do not have the kindness of a woman. Wan Guohou said succinctly, "If there is no special reason, I have never left a living mouth for kidnappers and the like." ”

This sentence made Yu Jingbo shudder, he picked up the wine glass on the small round table next to the sofa, and drank it without saying a word.

"But I still don't get it. Gao Jin paced back and forth in the study irritably, "Master Hou, you said that the murderer may have been brought in by a guest, then, if you look at the surveillance video, don't you know which guest brought more people? Or, the doorman must have a record, and each guest brought several family members." ”

"Herein lies the problem. Wan Guohou sighed softly, "My people told me that the guards have counted and there are not many people. He put down his glass and said slowly, "276 guests, including your children, this number has been checked by the doorman and confirmed that it is correct." He glanced at his watch, "Now, the hall, the corridor, the lounge, the restaurant, the entertainment room, all the places, they have secretly counted them, a total of 273 guests. ”

"The remaining 3 people are in this study. Nan Zeyu nodded, "In this way, Neiying has not left the crown yet." ”

"But how did he bring people in?" Gao Jin was still a little irritable, "You can't be a living person, right?"

"Compared to this. Wan Guohou said, "I am more concerned about why he is doing this." ”

"Do you still need to ask?" Gao Jin couldn't care about etiquette at the moment, and he spoke a lot more casually, "He's just here for money." ”

"That's a bit outrageous, isn't it?" Nan Zeyu said, "3 billion, there has never been such a large amount of kidnapping." With so much money, even if the Hou Ye paid it all, how could they take it?"

"Maybe they don't have a concept of money, maybe it's a little thief?" Yu Jingbo guessed.

"It's hard to say. Wan Guohou touched his beard, "I always feel that there is a contradiction in this. ”

"Contradiction?"

"The people who knew I was going to have a banquet on Christmas Eve were all people who had received invitations, and these people, including all of you here, were the elite of high society. Wan Guohou grimaced, "How can the upper class help the little thief to do internal response? It stands to reason that these two kinds of people have no intersection, and there is no possibility of even knowing each other." ”

"Maybe you met before?" Nan Zeyu guessed, "Not all elites have noble backgrounds like you, and there are many self-made people. ”

This sentence made Yu Jingbo and Gao Jin uncomfortable, but the two of them invariably remained silent.

"The director of the south hall is reasonable. Wan Guohou bowed slightly, "In this case, should I target some guests who are not from rich backgrounds?"

"Master Hou, is this too big a blow?" Yu Jingbo muttered with a little dissatisfaction, "If you are like this, then Mr. Gao and I will be counted, even the director of the South Hall is not considered a rich second generation, right?"

This was said extremely inappropriately, and Nan Zeyu immediately glared at him. Gao Jin was also a little dissatisfied, "Xiao Yu, of course our own people are not counted in it, you have too much heart." ”

Wan Guohou smiled slightly, "Then, I'll target the person who comes to the crown for the second time and is extremely short of money." Although it's hard for me to imagine any guest tonight who is in financial crisis. He walked slowly to the window and glanced out, "It's very cold tonight, I don't know what the conditions are like in the place where the two ladies are." ”

When Gao Jin heard him say this, he immediately became sad again. "My daughter still needs to take medicine. ”

"Is Ling Ai sick?"

Gao Jin hesitated for a moment and said, "M4, acute myelomonocycloid leukemia." ”

Nan Zeyu was taken aback, he paid little attention to Gao Xiangqi, he only felt that she was not in good health, and he didn't expect that she was suffering from such a dangerous and stubborn disease. Yu Jingbo, on the other hand, was calmer, apparently in the know.

"It's a pity. Wan Guohou was also a little surprised, "Then we can contact the kidnappers and ask them to ensure that Ling Ai can take her medicine on time." ”

"Alas. Gao Jin let out a long sigh, and then scratched his bald head in annoyance.

"Hey, Mr. Gao, didn't you just say that it's possible for you to know who the kidnapper is?" Nan Zeyu suddenly said, "I remember you said that it was from Han Cheng?"

Gao Jin took out his mobile phone, but he looked hesitant.

"Mr. Gao, do you have any concerns?" Wan Guohou asked.

"To tell you the truth, I scolded him in the afternoon. Gao Jin looked annoyed, "I don't know if this guy was provoked by me." ”

"Mr. Gao, can you contact him?" Nan Zeyu sat up straight, "Now." ”

"Yes. Gao Jin unlocked the phone and brought up the call menu.

"Mr. Gao, use hands-free. Nan Zeyu reminded.

Gao Jin was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood what the other party meant, he was a little reluctant, but he still complied.

"Hey, boss, is that you?" the other man's voice sounded slightly surprised.

"It's me, what are you doing?" Gao Jin asked as gently as he could.

"For dinner, I found a restaurant that made a particularly good cross-bridge rice noodle, haha. Boss, you must have eaten these places in a long time, right?"

Gao Jin didn't want to be close, so he said straightforwardly: "You talked to me for a while, after hanging up the phone, what are you doing?"

"Huh?" the other side was obviously a little confused, "Uh, just hanging out, I don't have anything to do tonight, just go around." ”

"Where exactly are you?"

"Wait until I ask the owner. After a loud noise, "Yanjing Road." ”

"Oh, then you're far away from me. Gao Jin said, "Are you in Changning?"

"That's right. Boss, what, you want to come to me?"

"Do you live there?"

"Yes, with a few buddies. ”

"Okay, I'll see you another day. ”

"Oh, I'm very broken here, boss, I'd better go find you, just go to your shop, okay?"

"Then let's talk about it, I've had a lot of things going on lately, I'm very busy, and I didn't have a good attitude towards you just now, so don't take it to heart. Gao Jin laughed dryly.

"Where did the boss say, I, Wu Chen, am not the kind of person who is cautious. ”

Hearing this name, Wan Guohou's face suddenly changed, but several other people didn't notice it.

Gao Jin touched his head irritably, "Then let's do this first, I'll contact you later, this is your mobile phone number, right?"

"Yes, Boss, you must remember to call me. ”

"Hmm. Gao Jin hung up the phone, "What do you think?"

His voice was steady, his breathing was steady, as if he was completely unaware. Wan Guohou said.

"Yes, it sounds natural, including the conversation with Mr. Gao, there is nothing wrong with it. Nan Zeyu turned the pen again, "Either he really didn't do it, or he has first-class psychological quality, it's not impossible." ”

"I think he's pretending. Yu Jingbo pushed his glasses, "It sounds like he wants to see Mr. Gao very much, and he is too attentive." ”

"He wanted me to give me a job. Gao Jin explained, "He called me in the afternoon and said the same thing. ”

"But you rejected him in the afternoon, and you lost your temper?" Wan Guohou said with a smile, "So, do you think that it is possible that this person has a grudge against you and uses kidnapping to get revenge on you?"

"I did think so. Gao Jin replied honestly.

"Then he's too powerful, right, he called you in the afternoon and kidnapped your daughter at night?" Nan Zeyu shook his head, "This is agent-level efficiency." ”

Perhaps, he has long wanted to kidnap Mr. Gao's daughter, but he has never been able to make up his mind. Then, today Mr. Gao rejected him, and in a fit of anger, he executed the plan?" Yu Jingbo guessed, "Then, it is possible that Mr. Yue was passing by and was tied up together?"

"Dean Yu, why do you say as if you are on the scene. Wan Guohou laughed.

"I'm reasoning, reasoning. Yu Jingbo hurriedly explained.

"I'm the exact opposite of you. Wan Guohou said lightly, "The kidnappers should have come for me, Miss Gao, but it is possible that they have suffered from the pond fish." He picked up the note in the box and shook it slightly, "This person knows my nickname, and he sent me a kidnapping letter, obviously targeting my money." ”

At this time, E1 knocked on the door and walked in, "Master Hou, I found it." ”

Say. ”

"The other kidnapper is also an employee of Your-Table. This man did something and broke a machine, so one of the employees who came to Crown tonight found out and had to go back to replace it temporarily. The employee came back just now, and the doorman had already confirmed that it was him, and the kidnappers pretended to be the employee when the employee went out to change the machine. ”

Everyone nodded knowingly.
