Chapter 2: Dead by Daylight II
When the people who were about to start a fight heard the explosion, they immediately looked at each other, not knowing what was going on upstairs. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Su Mu immediately decided not to entangle with DeWitt anymore: "Don't worry about DeWitt, there must be an accident on the second floor, my parents, my eldest brother and second brother are all on it." Alec! Let's check it out! ”
"DeWitt! Come back and clean up your boy! Alec glared at DeWitt fiercely, and hurriedly ran upstairs with Su Mu.
"Renee, come up with us, it's not safe here." Su Mu, who walked to the top of the stairs, remembered something and hurriedly said to Renee.
Renee nodded in agreement.
"It's not a pity for someone like you to be thrown into the back kitchen of a tavern to make soup." Renee, who was about to follow Su Mu and Alec upstairs, said next.
Maybe the wrist wrestling just now was not enough to relieve her anger, Renee also stepped on DeWitt's kick, and there was another "Pain, pain, pain!" in DeWitt! He hurried upstairs with a strange scream. At this time, the three of them had already left DeWitt behind, and ran quickly to the second floor of the Yunge Tavern. Renee also wondered what was going on upstairs.
Just after Su Mu and the three of them turned around to go to the second floor, De Witt, who was in pain due to a dislocated wrist, showed a smug smile on his face, and said to himself: "See how long you Su Mu can still be angry." Immediately, because of the pain in his wrist again, coupled with the kick that Renee stepped on, DeWitt grinned in pain, revealing a miserable face.
"Damn, it hurts me to death. Let's go, let's go to the second floor too. After the pain, DeWitt also beckoned the two guards beside him to go to the second floor.
There was a commotion in the banquet hall on the second floor, where several quaint long tables were decorated with all kinds of drinks, food, and large bouquets of flowers, and because of the chaos caused by the explosion, the tables were in disarray, and the circular performance hall that had been vacated in the middle was full of panicked guests. Among them, the main table has long been unrecognizable, and there is a bloodstain, and if you look at the bloodstains, there is a big hole there, which must be the location of the explosion.
At this time, Su Mu, who ran quickly into the hall on the second floor, searched for his relatives in the vast crowd, Alec was also anxiously searching, and Renee was focused on her eyes, as if she had found the person she was looking for.
"Su Mu, you go to your aunt first, and I'll go to Director Wendell to ask about the situation." Renee said, pushing away the crowd in front of her with her hand.
"Well, you go, I'll go to my mother first, and we'll meet later." Su Mu nodded and said.
Watching Renee walk towards Wendell, who was busy maintaining order, Su Mu also quickly determined the location of the main table, thinking that his family should also be nearby, so he patted Alec's shoulder and beckoned Alec to walk towards the area of the main table of the banquet.
Just near the main table, a figure wearing a red cheongsam with a golden curly grass pattern is particularly eye-catching, from the cheongsam outlined figure and the's hairstyle, it can be clearly seen that this is a lady with a good sense of style, from the white fox fur draped on her shoulders can know her noble status and identity. At this moment, this lady is maintaining order in the neighborhood in an orderly manner, her calm performance is in stark contrast to the chaotic venue, her speech is calm, and her demeanor is elegant, and this lady is Su Mu's mother, Wang Li.
"Mom, how's it going? What about Dad, what about them? Su Muzheng asked eagerly, trotting closer to Wang Li, followed by Alec, who was also anxious.
"They're all right, keeping order at the door of the back garden of the tavern. Don't be idle, come and help, Wendell's vigilantes will come over in a moment. Wang Li said, while not forgetting to gesture to describe the scene to the waiter opposite.
After confirming that the family was fine, Su Mu didn't ask anything more, and walked straight to the main table, only then did he really see clearly the person in the pool of blood next to the explosion, it was Li Nian, the current president of the North Star City Regional Chamber of Commerce Alliance, Su Mu looked at Li Nian's body thoughtfully, as if he felt something, and with Alec's pat on the shoulder, he remembered that he was going to help evacuate the guests.
Since the security bureau in North Star City was not very close to the Yunge Tavern, it would take some time for the security team to arrive at the scene. Thankfully, Wendell, the director of the Public Security Bureau, also attended the banquet, after all, the various businesses in North Star City have frequent contact with the Security Bureau. The sophisticated Wendell quickly quelled the turmoil and disorder in the banquet hall, and the tavern guards began to guide the guests to safety one after another, under Wendell's command.
Wendell had barely recovered from his hustle and bustle when he heard Renee's voice coming from behind him. "Uncle Wendell, what's going on? How could there be an explosion? ”
The familiar voice made Wendell immediately turn around, and what caught his eye was Renee in front of him. He looked surprised, and just as he wanted to speak, Renee grabbed him, "Uncle Wendell, you forgot?" I'm Renee! Today, I made an appointment with a friend to play in Yunge, who knew that I had encountered this thing! Renee put her finger on her mouth and made a "shhhh
Looking at Renee, who was winking at her, Wendell hurriedly responded, "Ah, that's right. Wendell paused and said: "Today, the North Star City Regional Chamber of Commerce Alliance held a drinking party here, and I was invited to come over to attend the reception, who knew that there was a sudden explosion in the lecture seat, and Mr. Li Nian, the president of the Li Chamber of Commerce, was killed on the spot. ”
After listening to Wendell's words, Renee turned her gaze to the explosion hole next to the main table, she observed for a while, then held her chin with her hand, and asked thoughtfully: "Li Nian, I remember that I am also the president of the North Star City Regional Chamber of Commerce Alliance, right?" ”
"Yes, Li Nian will retreat into the background in the election of the president of the alliance in 2 weeks, giving up the position of president, but unfortunately he died here, based on my observation, this explosion should be premeditated. The specific details will not be investigated in detail until the security team is in place, and at present, I can only control the situation first. Wendell answered Renee's question and explained the situation in more detail.
Renee listened and circled around Wendell slowly, and when Wendell finished speaking, she nodded thoughtfully and said, "Then uncle, hurry up, work is important, I won't bother!" ”
"I'll take care of it." Wendell paused and looked at the pocket watch on his chest, "The vigilantes are almost here, and I have to be busy again." With that, Wendell bowed to Renee and made her way up the stairs.
After Wendell left, Renee fixed her eyes, found Su Mu not far from the main table, and walked over.
It didn't take long for a hurried footstep to come from the staircase, and I saw Barrett, the captain of the security team, come to the venue with the security team, and under Wendell's simple explanation, Barrett, who knew the general situation, commanded the security team to start cleaning up the mess, transporting the wounded, and protecting the scene.
With the help of his subordinates, Wendell finally breathed a sigh of relief and no longer cared about the order of the scene. He asked Barrett to call Su Cheng, Prailly and others, who were calming the emotions of the family members of the Chamber of Commerce, and he came to the main table first. Because of Wang Li, the area between the main table and the explosion crater is very well protected, Wendell followed the main table and saw Wang Li who was explaining the situation to the security team, and couldn't help but be a little envious of Su Cheng in his heart, after all, not everyone can find such a talented and beautiful lady.
Seeing that Wang Li had already finished talking to the security team, Wendell walked to Wang Li's side, saluted first, and said: "Thank you, Mrs. Su, you have really helped a lot, and the next thing will be handed over to my security team, now that the situation has stabilized, Madam, you can rest first, and when Boss Su and they all come over, let's sort out the current situation together." ”
"It's great, it's a lot easier for you and everyone to get there, and it's up to you and all of you to work hard, Director Wendell. Then I'll go and call them over. After Wang Li nodded slightly, he hurried to find Su Mu.
After a while, the presidents of the major chambers of commerce, including Su Cheng and Ripley, gathered at the main table in the banquet hall, and at this time, Wang Li also walked over with Su Mu, and Su Cheng asked in surprise, "Mu'er, why are you here?" ”
"I originally asked a friend to come to play the 'adventurer' game at the Yunge Tavern, and as soon as I heard the explosion, I rushed to the banquet hall on the second floor." Su Mu replied
After listening to Su Mu's explanation, Su Cheng nodded and didn't continue to ask anything, turned to Wendell and asked, "Director Wendell, how is the situation now?" It was so sudden, I hope it doesn't make too much of a mess. ”
"Thanks to your help, the situation in the venue has stabilized now. In the case of death and injury, except for Chairman Li Nian, who was killed by the bombing, most of the others were injured, and my people have already arrived, so you don't have to worry about the aftermath. The next thing is the investigation of this explosion, which is so strange that it must have been specially designed for President Li Nian, and the murderer wanted to kill him. While saying these words, Wendell also paid attention to the expressions and demeanor of the chamber presidents.
"Speaking of which, such a target for Uncle Li, maybe the most suspicious one is the Su family, after all, this time there is my father, the second candidate for the president, to catch up, Uncle Su, the first candidate, will not be so stable, in addition, I heard that Uncle Li and Uncle Su quarreled a few days ago and broke up!" As soon as Wendell's words fell, Su Mu heard a familiar voice coming, Su Mu followed the sound and found that it was DeWitt, who was fighting against him downstairs just now.
Hearing this obviously provocative and sarcastic remark, Su Mu's second brother Su Xing's face instantly became ugly, and he asked, "De Witt, what do you mean?" ”
"Am I not clear enough? I said......" DeWitt was interrupted by Ripley before he could finish his sentence: "DeWitt, you shut up, don't talk nonsense. Then Ripley smiled at Su Cheng and said, "President Su, don't worry, De Witt is not sensible, he is angry with your third son, Su Mu, I will educate him well when I go back." ”
"Little kid, I won't take it to heart, President Ripley rest assured." Su Cheng shook his head and said with a smile.
"Thank you so much! When I go back, I will definitely fix this boy who doesn't know the rules in my house. Ripley bent down and waved his hand to Su Cheng to apologize, but the tone of his voice always made people a little uncomfortable to listen to.
Ignoring the conversation between them, after listening to the report of Captain Barritt, Wendell spoke: "I have understood the basic situation clearly from my subordinate Barrett, and this kind of thing happened in my Wendell's jurisdiction, several presidents can rest assured, my security bureau will definitely investigate this matter clearly, today everyone will go back to rest and rest, tomorrow morning several people will come to the security bureau, I will report the detailed situation to you, and then we need to work together to find out this matter." ”
In this process, Wendell specially comforted the wife of Li Nian, the president of the alliance, and the relatives of the Li family couldn't accept this sudden change for a while.
After the exchange, people from several chambers of commerce took people out of the Yunge Tavern, and Su Mu's eldest brother Su Yuan found that Su Mu was watching near the explosion, so he walked over and patted Su Mu: "Let's go, third brother, everyone is ready to leave." ”
"Yes." Su Mu, who came back to his senses, nodded, and left with Su Yuan, just a few steps out, Su Mu looked back at the explosion again, with a very puzzled expression on his face, and after a while, he quickly followed the footsteps of his family and left the Yunge Tavern.
After watching the presidents of several chambers of commerce leave the banquet hall with their respective families, Wendell fell into deep thought. At this time, Captain Barrett walked up to Wendell and frowned and asked, "Director, why did you let them go?" It stands to reason that their suspicion is the greatest, so if they go back, wouldn't it give them a chance to deal with the aftermath? Hearing Barrity's question, Wenwendell did not answer directly, but looked at the scenery outside the window of the banquet hall, and said for a long time: "You think I don't understand?" Think about their backgrounds and status. After hearing Wendell's answer, Barrett nodded thoughtfully, said nothing more, and got back to work.
In the dead of night, things cooled down temporarily, Li Nian's death touched everyone's hearts, and everyone knew that this matter was not simple.
