Chapter 205: Two Paths, You Choose!
New Century Hotel.
The killing of the white peony actually has little impact here, after all, the white peony is a dusty woman, people are in love, and people are cold!
Even Fu Dalei, who pursued him, only sighed that he didn't get it, let alone others.
It is still full of lights and wine, and the warblers are singing and dancing.
Of course. Certainly not in the morning.
In the morning, there is only the loneliness after the glitz, and it is the same as a few days ago, with lazy cleaners and the occasional yawning waiter walking by.
Sun Cheng came over early to inspect.
For him, these few days have been really eventful, and Bai Peony suddenly encountered an accident and was brutally killed by murderers, which made him feel very bad all the time.
If you can't sleep well, get up early and watch the hotel.
But on the way here today, my right eyelid kept jumping.
"Could it be that something bad is happening?"
Just as he was rubbing his temples, a group of people walked in through the gate,
When he saw who was the leader, Sun Cheng's face darkened.
Bad, good spirits, bad spirits, what they just said, they didn't have time to do anything, and it became reality in a blink of an eye.
The people from the Garrison Department are here again!
I'd be a little more relieved if I came at night, thinking that you might be here to have fun, but it's probably not a good thing to come in the middle of the day.
"Yo, Chief Chu, morning! If there is anything you can say hello to, I will visit, how can I let you come to the door in person! Sun Cheng restrained his emotions, hurriedly stepped forward, smiled all over his face, and said politely.
"Manager Sun, I'm going to see the owner of your New Century Hotel now, is he there?" Chu Mufeng didn't talk nonsense, and asked straight to the point.
"The boss is inside, I'm going to ask him over?" Sun Cheng hurriedly said.
"Good!" Chu Mufeng nodded and said.
"Then sit down and wait a while, I'll come when I go."
Chu Mufeng waved his hand casually, and Sun Cheng hurried to find the boss.
After a while, Sun Cheng followed a man and came down from the upper floor.
This man looked to be in his forties, tall, and spacious, wearing a black coat that made the whole person look very tough and straight.
Especially the eyes under the thick eyebrows, the rotation exudes a Taoist essence, and the heroic spirit is compelling.
He is the big boss of the New Century Hotel, Bai Daoan Baiye.
Bai Daoan is a very low-key and mysterious man, although he is the big boss of the New Century Hotel, but no one knows him as much as Sun Cheng.
In the eyes of many people, Sun Cheng is the helmsman of the New Century Hotel, but as long as anyone who is familiar with the inside story knows that Sun Cheng does not dare to breathe in front of Bai Daoan.
This is Bai Daoan's might.
"Section Chief Chu, hello, I have lost my welcome, and I hope to forgive my sins, and the contemptible person is Bai Daoan, the owner of the New Century Hotel." After Bai Daoan walked over, Chong Chu politely stretched out his hands to greet him.
"Boss Bai, you are too polite!" Chu Mufeng shook his hand.
"Section Chief Chu, I have heard of your name a long time ago, and it can be described as thunderous. It is said that you are a detective of the Garrison Department, and you have solved many unsolved cases, which can be described as a young talent. When I saw it today, it really deserved its name! Bai Daoan sighed.
"Boss Bai has won the award, Chu Mou came here on official business this time, if it's convenient, let's go over there and have a chat?"
For smiling people, Chu Mufeng is naturally inconvenient to speak coldly, not to mention opening such a big casino in this Forty-Nine City, naturally it is not rootless duckweed.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say!"
In the corner of the hall, the two sat opposite each other, surrounded by Hua Rong and others on guard to ensure the confidentiality of their conversation.
"Section Chief Chu, why did you come here this time?" Bai Daoan took the initiative to ask.
"Boss Bai, I don't know how much you know about the dancing girls in the hotel? You should know about the corpse shredding that happened two days ago, right? Chu Mufeng was also straightforward and asked straight to the point.
"Corpse shredding?"
Bai Daoan coughed and said, "I know, I heard Sun Cheng say that it was a dancer in our hotel who died, called White Peony, right?" ”
"Section Chief Chu, has the case been solved? You're here to talk to me about this? Thank you so much if that were the case! ”
"I'm not talking about white peony!" Chu Mufeng said lightly.
"Isn't it?" Bai Daoan's face was a little suspicious.
"It's Red Rose Sun Xiao'e."
"Red Rose? Sun Xiao'e? At this time, Bai Daoan felt a little stunned.
Isn't it the case of the murder of the white peony just now? Why did the conversation involve Sun Xiao'e of the Red Rose as soon as the conversation turned, could it be ......
Suddenly having a bad intuition in his heart, Bai Daoan said in a slightly dry voice: "Section Chief Chu, could it be that the Red Rose and the White Peony also suffered the same accident?" ”
"Not bad!"
Facing Bai Dao'an, whose expression changed slightly, Chu Mufeng had no intention of concealing it, and said slowly.
"You guessed right, in the early hours of this morning, Red Rose was also killed, and in the same way, the difference between the corpse and the white peony is only one street! Boss Bai, that's why I'm meeting you! ”
"What?"
Bai Daoan was really shocked at the moment.
He and Sun Cheng had the same idea, if it was just a white peony, it would be easy to say, but now there is an extra red rose.
However, both of them belong to their own hotels, and the spread will inevitably cause a stir, attracting all kinds of gossip and affecting the hotel business.
"You're surprised, aren't you? I am the same, and I believe that if the rest of the people knew the truth, they would too. ”
"The two people who were killed before and after were all dancers, and they were both from your New Century Hotel, and the place where the bodies were dumped was not much different."
"Boss Bai, if it were you, I would have thought about it more, right? I guess you'll come to the owner of this hotel to ask about the situation, right? Chu Mufeng looked at the other party and said frankly.
"Yes, you're right, if it were me, I would definitely come over and ask about the situation."
Bai Daoan understood what Chu Mufeng said, and there was a thoughtful light in his eyes.
"It's not a coincidence, is it?"
"Coincidence?"
Chu Mufeng smiled noncommittally, "Solving a case is about evidence, and it is never a coincidence. ”
"Of course, it's not without coincidences, but you have to solve the case to determine whether it's a coincidence or not. Boss Bai, I would like to ask you a few questions now, and I hope you can answer them truthfully. ”
"Chief Chu, if you ask, I will tell you the truth!" Bai Daoan immediately looked whole and sat upright.
"White Peony and Red Rose are both dancers of the New Century Hotel, and they can only be killed for two reasons, either because of themselves or because of the New Century Hotel."
"If it's the former, we're investigating, and if it's the latter, that's what I'm here for today. I would like to know if you have any enemies in the New Century Hotel lately? ”
"If so, who might those opponents be? In your opinion, who would most like the New Century Hotel to be destroyed? Chu Mufeng squinted and asked.
"Make enemies?"
Bai Daoan frowned and pondered for a while, and then said slowly: "The opponent's words will definitely be there, isn't there such a sentence to say?" Peers are enemies. ”
"When my hotel grows bigger, it will naturally be coveted and envied by my peers. But if you say that those peers are adversaries, that they did this, I don't think it's realistic. ”
"It's not up to you to decide whether it's realistic or not, now I'll list everything you think might be an opponent!" Chu Mufeng handed over a piece of paper and a pen as he spoke.
"Think about it, don't forget anything!"
"Is this necessary?" Bai Daoan hesitated.
"Quite a bit!" Chu Mufeng's attitude was very resolute.
Maybe you're good at running a hotel, but when it comes to this investigation, there's nothing to do with you, that's my decision.
"Okay."
In fact, Bai Daoan didn't really want to write, but it was really strange to think of it, so he picked up the pen and began to write.
As for those of you who have been named, it is not up to me to decide whether you will be visited by Chu Mufeng one by one, who let us encounter trouble at the New Century Hotel this time.
"These are all hostile to the New Century Hotel, but I still stick to the idea that these people may not do such crazy things, because it is not worth it." After Bai Daoan handed over the written paper, he shook his head and said.
"It's not what you said if it's worth it, that's what I'm going to investigate!"
After Chu Mufeng put away the paper, he began to ask other questions, each of which was asked with a strong pertinence.
For these questions, Bai Daoan felt a little uncomfortable, but he still answered very cooperatively.
"Okay, then let's do it first, Boss Bai, if you think of something, or if you have any valuable news, remember to inform us in time."
Putting away the notebook, Chu Mufeng stood up and said.
"Definitely, definitely!" Bai Daoan nodded.
"Huarong, close the team."
"Yes!"
"Chief Chu, go slowly!" Bai Daoan stepped forward.
"Boss Bai, please stay!" Chu Mufeng smiled with a smile.
……
New Century Hotel, in the office.
There is only Sun Cheng and the object of his allegiance, Bai Dao'an and Bai Ye.
"Sun Cheng, what do you think about the white peony and the red rose?"
There was a pair of chess pieces on the table in front of Bai Daoan, and he picked up a jade chess piece at random and rubbed it in his hand, and asked with his eyes slightly narrowed.
"Master Bai, is it possible that this matter is aimed at us?" Sun Cheng was really a little dazed.
The death of a white peony can be said to be an accident, but now that a red rose has died, it seems a bit far-fetched to say that this thing is also an accident.
But if it's not an accident, is it who is planning for their New Century Hotel?
"Against us?"
Bai Daoan put the chess pieces on the chessboard and asked lightly, "How is the situation in the hotel?" ”
"Not so good!"
Speaking of this, Sun Cheng said with a somewhat bitter face: "Master Bai, because of the matter of the white peony and the red rose, some people in our hotel have fluctuating hearts, and a rumor has begun to circulate. ”
"It is said that someone is targeting our New Century Hotel, as long as you work here, you will become a target of attack, and you may encounter accidents."
"There are already a lot of dancing girls who are ready to change places, if this continues, I'm afraid that if they all leave, no one will dare to come to our store, and our hotel business will plummet."
Alarmist?
No, that's true.
Now some people have started to say they want to resign, and as long as there is one who is the first to go, others will follow suit.
Of course, hotels can also give high salaries, but so what? Although the money is good, it has to be spent to make it!
Two of them have already died, and no one knows who the next one will be, if you can change places to make money, it is naturally safer to change places!
"Do you think someone is deliberately causing trouble?" Sun Cheng asked cautiously.
"Did you say there are some other night clubs in town?" Bai Daoan glanced at the other party and asked.
"Hmm!" Sun Cheng bowed in response.
"Probably not."
Bai Daoan took another rook chess in his hand and said slowly: "In the past few years, although our new century and the rest of our peers have said that there is competition, it is just business, and it is all limited, principled and bottom-line competition. ”
"It's not that this kind of thing can't be done, but as long as it is done, it will leave clues, once it is found out, it will definitely be a gun, do you think they can't get along? Or do you need to do this because you have a deep grudge against us? ”
"Bai Ye, you're right, there's no need for this!" Sun Cheng thinks about it, and this is indeed the reason.
In other words, those who sell tobacco and engage in casinos may be so ruthless, killing people and robbing goods, destroying money and money, and opening night clubs, they can't do it at all!
Bai Daoan picked up the lit cigar, took a deep breath, spit out his eyes and said: "Because of such a thing, the future and fate will be buried, it is not worth it and it is not necessary, so it will not be them." ”
"If it weren't for them, it would be a bit of a strange thing. Forget it, we can't figure it out here, you just let our people stare at this matter, and I hope the police department can solve the case as soon as possible. ”
"I also told the people below that they should do things with peace of mind, and I, Bai Daoan, would not treat them badly. If anyone is afraid, everyone can stay in the hotel until the case is closed by the Security Agency, and you can arrange it for them. ”
"Yes, Master Bai!" Sun Cheng bowed in response.
Although this will cost you some money, it is negligible compared to the future of the hotel.
After all, only by doing so can we save the decline of the hotel, save the waiters and dancers, and keep people's hearts for their own use.
Syllable!
Bai Daoan slammed the chess pieces on the chessboard, with a bit of expectation in his eyes.
"Chu Mufeng, Chu Mufeng, I hope you can live up to your name and solve the case as soon as possible!"
……
As for Chu Mufeng's side, with the relevant information obtained from the New Century Hotel, he arranged the task of investigation after he returned.
During this period, he did not forget to explain to Shimoda Yokoshichi, and asked him to inform Sino-Ocean Commerce that he would go over in the afternoon and have something to discuss.
The case of Tokugawa's murder also needs to be understood
Five o'clock in the afternoon.
Ocean Commerce, in the President's Office.
There are two people sitting here: Chu Mufeng and Inoue Mitsuo.
Facing Chu Mufeng's visit, Inoue Mitsuo asked lukewarmly: "Section Chief Chu, what are you going to do when you come here this time?" You won't say that our chamber of commerce is harboring murderers, right? ”
"What are you not clear about?" Chu Mufeng raised the corners of his eyebrows and took the initiative to make this matter clear.
"What do I know?" Mitsuo Inoue deliberately pretended to be stupid.
"I'm here for the Tokugawa Kyogami case."
A sneering sneer appeared at the corner of Chu Mufeng's mouth, since you don't want to take the initiative to say it, then I have to pierce this layer of window paper to see how you can still pretend?
Sure enough, Inoue Mitsuo had no way to continue pretending, and after hearing this, his expression became serious, and he said in a strong tone.
"Section Chief Chu, I know that you are in charge of investigating and handling this case, do you want to give me an explanation this time?"
"Confession?"
The corners of Chu Mufeng's mouth curled, he walked to the window, and looked at the cargo boxes piled up outside, his eyes were deep.
"We don't have any clues about this case at the moment, and if we want to solve the case, we must always give us time, and we also need the cooperation of those tavern diners. But it's a pity that on the one hand, those diners don't cooperate with the investigation, and on the other hand, you won't give us enough time, right? ”
"Yes!"
Inoue Mio's eyes burst out with a sharp light, and he said fiercely: "Why should they cooperate with you, why should I give you time, if your garrison department says that the murderer can't be found, I can only ask the garrison outside the city to help arrest people." ”
"But if you really do that, I don't think the consequences can be borne by your security department, right? Are you sure you want me to do that? ”
"It's not what I want, and I'm sure it's not what you want."
Chu Mufeng put his hands behind his back and said very calmly: "Yes, since you don't want to make things bigger, so you ocean trade should hurry up and settle this matter!" ”
"Let's settle this? What does this mean? Inoue Mitsuo frowned.
"The meaning is very simple, this matter is over, and there is no need to pursue it any further!" Chu Mufeng said lightly.
"That's it?"
When Inoue Mitsuo heard this, a cold light of contempt suddenly flashed in his eyes, and his back when he looked at Chu Mufeng also became contemptuous.
"Chief Chu, you're not joking, are you, you actually let me stop here? Hmph, the one who died was an important partner of our ocean trade, and he was in your Beiping City, if you say that your garrison does not hand over the murderer, this matter must not be finished! ”
"Chu Mufeng, I can tell you very solemnly, we island people can't just die in vain, either hand over the murderer to us, or I will ask our garrison outside the city to help catch the murderer, and pay for the blood debt!"
"Is that what you're asking for?" Chu Mufeng turned around and leaned against the window and asked.
"That's right, that's what I'm asking for."
"If that's the case, I can be honest with you. I don't agree with your request, I can push out a murderer to be punished, and that's it! Chu Mufeng said calmly.
"Haha!"
Inoue Sanxiong, who was stimulated by Chu Mufeng's attitude, suddenly stood up, and laughed angrily: "Section Chief Chu, if that's the case, there's no need for us to continue talking, let's go!" ”
"Shall I go?"
Chu Mufeng pointed to the box outside, and said in a playful tone: "Inoue Mitsuo, I know what the killed Tokugawa Kyogami is here for, and I also know what kind of business your Chamber of Commerce is doing. ”
"Don't think that you have the identity of an island country, you can be unscrupulous, I want to make your tobacco can't be sold, there are many ways, unless you have the ability to buy the entire security department, I don't think you have that ability."
Hearing this, Mitsuo Inoue's face was a little ugly.
"If you want to incite the garrison outside the city this time, you may not be able to afford the consequences! You want to use them, and they are not using you. ”
"I can tell you very clearly, once there is a war, I can't control the others, but your Chamber of Commerce, I will seal it as soon as possible, and none of you will want to run!"
"You...... What the hell do you want! Inoue Mitsuo raised his hand and said.
"What exactly do you want?"
"As I said, this is the end of the matter, the murderer will be sentenced according to our law, so that you have the explanation you want, it's as simple as that." Chu Mufeng said unhurriedly, if it weren't for Cao Yunshan's scruples, he wouldn't even be willing to give a death row prisoner to the other party.
"Inoue Mitsuo, isn't the link between you and the garrison outside the city just interests? If you don't have enough benefits, do you think they will care if you live or die? Then you're just a pawn ready to be discarded! ”
"If you continue to fan the flames and don't let go, then I want to see who dies quickly in the end."
"You...... You're threatening me! Inoue Mitsuo blushed and said angrily.
"Yes, I'm just threatening you, I, Chu Mufeng, have this qualification and ability!" Chu Mufeng's words were like a sharp edge, unceremoniously.
Are you angry? I'm still angry!
Chu Mufeng also had a fire in his heart, if he could say that he could, he really wanted to order the ocean trade to be completely sealed.
But isn't it impossible? The situation is stronger than the people!
If he really dared to do that, not only would he face the pressure from the upper echelons who had made good friends with Inoue, but the key guarantee would lead to the early dispatch of troops from the garrison outside the city.
If he said that because he was angry for a while, he let Beiping City fall into the war in advance, that was not what he wanted to see.
So for the time being, I can only put down the suppression of ocean commerce, anyway, if I do this, I won't lose at all.
The only one who suffers is the dead Tokugawa Kyogami, and the only one who pinched his nose and recognized it was Mitsuo Inoue!
"Inoue Mio, two paths, either end here, or the fish will die and the net will be broken, will you choose?" Chu Mufeng pressed forward step by step.
"I want to think about it!"
"Think about it? Mitsuo Inoue, I can give you time to think about it, but if you don't come up with an answer before tonight, I'll start tomorrow and search your Chamber of Commerce's warehouse first, I think it should be rewarding! ”
After speaking, Chu Mufeng got up and left without hesitation.
What was left behind was Mitsuo Inoue, who was full of grievances.
Baga, I really want to let the garrison outside the city attack Beiping City and completely occupy this place!
The northeast side has already been laid, and according to my own understanding, according to the temperament of those greedy guys in the military department, it is only a matter of time before they enter Beiping.
But at the moment, it seems that he is still preparing, and he does not have the energy to direct the military to act in advance, which will lead to a war between the two countries!
However, it is still no problem to let go and scare those officials in Beiping City, and it does play a role, otherwise there would be no Chu Mufeng coming to the door.
However, this guy didn't play cards according to the routine at all, and actually reversed his own army, making it difficult for him to ride a tiger.
Of course, Chu Mufeng is right, the bond he maintains with the garrison is interests, and without the delivery of sufficient interests, those cold-blooded guys don't care whether they are dead or alive at all!
It seems that it can only be a compromise!
As a businessman, Inoue Mitsuo actually doesn't have much enthusiasm, and pursuing profit is the fundamental.
