Chapter 245: Bodyguards
After consulting Su Xiuqing, Kalman arranged for Chen Chufan to stay at the Peninsula Hotel in Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong Island, which is an old five-star hotel on Hong Kong Island. The oldest hotel with the most convenient geographical location in Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong Island, is naturally very confident, but today the hotel's duty manager has been a little nervous, and even his right eye began to jump non-stop.
The reason for this is that since dinner, there have been several people of various kinds who have come to the front desk for various reasons to inquire about the identity of the same guest. Of course, according to the rules of the hotel, it is not possible to disclose the customer's information at will, but these people have put on an attitude of not giving up without reaching the goal, so the manager on duty has been called to the front desk several times to deal with these disputes.
But when he finally finished dealing with these people, he received a few phone calls that he had to pay attention to, and finally in desperation, he still leaked the customer's information. Then the police came to the door and asked for information about the customer.
However, the police are better than the previous group of people, and everything is just according to the rules. However, at this time, the manager on duty was already a little uneasy in his heart, he began to regret that he did not resist the pressure, and leaked the customer's information privately, obviously this young customer named Chen Chufan is definitely not an ordinary person, he has begun to play the idea of how to get himself out of this leak, so he picked up the phone at the front desk, ready to ask for instructions on this matter.
But before he could dial the phone, someone came to the front desk again. Five people, three men and two women. Although they were all dressed in casual clothes and looked quite ordinary, the well-informed duty manager could tell at a glance that these five people were unusual.
Because except for one of the middle-aged men, who was about thirty years old, the actions of several other people gave him an indescribable strange feeling.
Just like now, when the four of them came to the front desk under the leadership of the middle-aged man, the middle-aged man stopped, and the other four paused at the same time as if they had discussed. Rather than huddled together like a regular customer, and from the position of the manager on duty, the spacing between the five people seemed to be exactly the same.
It's a pity that the manager on duty can't look down from above, otherwise he will find that not only are the distances between several people standing exactly the same, but also the positions chosen by the four people behind the middle-aged man can completely protect the middle-aged man at the head, and according to the positions of these people, as long as they shake their heads at will, basically all the positions in the entire hotel lobby can be within their sight. There are few dead ends.
At this time, the middle-aged man standing in front of the front desk of the hotel said to the service lady at the front desk with a smile on his face, "Hello, may I ask if a gentleman named Chen Chufan lives in room 1808 of your hotel?" ”
As soon as the middle-aged man spoke, the manager on duty who was standing on the side instantly broke out in a cold sweat. Looking for that Chen Chufan again? Who is this young man sacred? The manager on duty has read Chen Chufan's information countless times, but he is just an ordinary young man in the central inland area, and he entrusted others to book two rooms this morning and move in this afternoon. With just such a simple piece of information, the manager on duty couldn't figure out why he had provoked so many people.
He had even begun to wonder if Chen Chufan would be some kind of princeling.
The manager on duty didn't notice. When he heard the middle-aged man's unnatural behavior when he asked Chen Chufan, he instantly attracted the middle-aged man's attention, and began to look at him from the corner of his eye.
"Hello, you are also looking for Chen Chufan?" The reception at the front desk is probably because I have heard this name countless times today. After a moment of distraction, a rhetorical question came out casually.
"Oh? Are many people coming to inquire about him today? The casual rhetorical question of the hotel's front desk reception did not annoy the middle-aged man, but aroused the man's interest, and he asked immediately after the words of the front desk reception.
"Yes! Much more today"
"Xiaomei. Did you miss the training course in the hotel? Do you treat guest inquiries like this? Before the receptionist could finish her words, the manager on duty on one side interrupted her and walked to the middle-aged man's side.
"This gentleman is sorry. I am the duty manager of the hotel, and our front desk reception was a bit rude just now. Are you a guest looking for room 1508? Do we need to give him advance notice? The manager on duty said very politely to the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man didn't answer the question of the manager on duty, but just put his hand on the bar at the front desk, tapped regularly, and looked at the manager on duty who took the initiative to talk with a smile on his face.
Although the middle-aged man's eyes were not sharp, and even there was a smile on his face that he couldn't understand, but the manager on duty didn't know why he had a feeling of being targeted by a poisonous snake, cold sweat oozed from his head involuntarily, and his heartbeat was much faster than usual.
Just when he was about to lose his temper because he couldn't withstand this pressure, the middle-aged man finally spoke, "Oh, actually, I just want to ask him if he went out, if he didn't go out, please help us inform him, thank you." ”
After the middle-aged man spoke, the heavy pressure like a mountain disappeared in an instant, he let out a sigh, he was still faintly afraid, he felt that if this middle-aged man was silent for a while, he might not be insane today. So he didn't dare to be cautious at this time, so he quickly picked up the internal phone at the bar and dialed out
Chen Chufan was in Han Xiaoxi and Ye Siying's room at this time, chatting with the two girls endlessly. The gift he was going to give to Han Xiaoxi was still in his pocket and he didn't pick the right time to take it out, and he began to feel sorry for himself again, why didn't he listen to Han Xiaoxi's orders when he was in China, and directly booked three single rooms, otherwise where would he be so embarrassed as now, and he felt embarrassed to give a gift.
He even regretted that he didn't bring more gifts on Fifth Avenue, so that if one person gave one, he wouldn't be embarrassed to give only one person.
Fortunately, the smart Ye Siying seemed to see the reason why Chen Chufan was restless at this time, and quipped: "Chen Chufan, today is Xiaoxi's birthday, should you be prepared to use the bouquet of roses at noon to deal with it?" That's a little stingy! ”
Chen Chufan really had the urge to hug Ye Siying and kiss him. How can there be such an understanding girl in the world? Just when he was about to tell the two that he had prepared a birthday gift for his family Xiaoxi, the phone in the room suddenly rang.
"Who? Calling the hotel at this time? Chen Chufan muttered in his mouth, and picked up the phone in front of Han Xiaoxi.
"Hey, hello, is Mr. Chen Chufan here?" In front of the bar in the hotel lobby, the voice of the manager on duty trembled a little. When dialing into Chen Chufan's room, the phone rang for a long time and no one answered, which made the manager on duty nervous again, for fear that the middle-aged man opposite him would feel unhappy, and looked at him with the kind of eyes that could kill people.
So he didn't even dare to look up, so he quickly dialed the phone in another room opened by Chen Chufan.
"Looking for me?" Chen Chufan first raised his head and said to the two girls in the room, and then said to the phone: "I am!" Who are you? ”
Hearing Chen Chufan's answer, the manager on duty was like a pardon, and the whole person's spirit was much more uplifted.
"Hello, Mr. Chen, I am the lobby duty manager of The Peninsula Hotel today, and now someone is looking for you at the front desk of the hotel, I will call to ask if you are convenient to meet guests now?" Do you want me to give them the phone? The manager on duty said busily.
"Someone looking for me?" Chen Chufan immediately thought about whether it would be the bodyguard arranged by Ye Feng to come. But shouldn't they just call their phones? Chen Chufan subconsciously touched his pocket, and this time he found that he only wanted to surprise Han Xiaoxi, and even forgot to bring out his mobile phone in the room.
"Oh, okay, you let them answer the phone first!" Chen Chufan hurriedly said.
At the bar in the hall, the manager on duty hurriedly handed the microphone to the middle-aged man led by the five.
The middle-aged man smiled politely at the manager on duty, but who would have thought that this purely polite smile would make the poor manager bow his head involuntarily. The middle-aged man shook his head slightly, the smile on his face became a little self-deprecating, and then he took the phone and said in a deep voice: "Hey! Is it Mr. Chen Chufan? ”
"Yes, I am, may I ask if you are!" Chen Chufan asked.
"My name is Zhang Shisan, and someone in the capital has notified me to come to you!" Zhang Shisan said calmly into the microphone.
Zhang Shisan's tone was very calm, but Chen Chufan on the other end of the phone felt that the low and hoarse voice on the phone seemed to have a very special charm, so that he even forgot to complain about this somewhat funny name. Zhang Thirteen? Why isn't it called Xiao Shisanlang?
"Hello, Mr. Zhang, please wait at the front desk, I will go down to meet you immediately, and arrange accommodation for you by the way!" Ignoring the analysis of this Zhang Shisan's voice, Chen Chufan hurriedly said, this is the Niu X character introduced by his brother who is said to have protected the chief, whether it is for Ye Feng's face or this man's qualifications, Chen Chufan is not willing to slack off.
"Okay, I'll wait for you at the front desk!" After speaking, Zhang Shisan hung up the phone directly. (To be continued......)
