99. Flatly denied
Feng Haiquan drove the car and took Mrs. Hu and several policemen to the Longyuan Hotel.
Feng Haiquan showed his police ID card to the boss, and then asked about the whereabouts of the countess: "Boss, have you seen these two women?" ”
Feng Haiquan pointed to the photo of the Countess and Anna on the missing person notice.
The boss looked at it and recognized at a glance that these two were the foreign women who came to stay at the hotel the day before yesterday, but he also remembered that he accepted a piece of ocean given to him by Fu Xinhan at that time and asked him not to mention it to anyone, so he smiled and shook his head: "I'm not impressed." ”
"Boss, you must remember, I was sitting here that day and I saw this foreign woman come in." Mrs. Hu hurriedly stepped forward and said to the boss, "Boss, do you remember me?" I was here that night. ”
The boss looked at Mrs. Hu and smiled awkwardly: "I have people here who come and go, and not everyone remembers it clearly." ”
"Didn't I quarrel with that vixen that night, you must have an impression, right?" Mrs. Hu hurriedly reminded the innkeeper.
The boss looked Mrs. Hu up and down, searching in his mind: "Oh, I seem to remember what you said, there is such a thing, I seem to be here to fight, but Mrs. that day, you don't seem to be dressed like this!" ”
"Did I wear a little makeup and a hat that day, so you don't recognize me." Mrs. Hu smiled at the boss.
"Yes, yes, now I recognize it. Now your husband comes home every day, right? The boss smiled at Mrs. Hu.
Mrs. Hu also laughed.
Feng Haiquan felt that the two of them had taken the topic away, and hurriedly pointed to the photo again: "Boss, have you ever seen this foreign woman?" ”
The innkeeper actually realized from Feng Haiquan as soon as he walked into the hotel that this police officer wanted to know about the two foreign women, how could he not know about the missing person notices posted on the streets in the past two days, and the murder that happened on Anhesi Road was also spread all over the city, the police, the Japanese, and the gangs were all looking for the murderer, and for a while the streets and alleys were filled with a tense atmosphere, and the innkeeper felt that several people who came to stay that day seemed to be related to the case, but more is better than less, he is a businessman, If you go to report the case, although you can get a few rewards, but then a bunch of troubles will follow, maybe his hotel will be sealed, and he may be suspected of harboring the murderer, this hotel is his entire net worth, the livelihood of the whole family, and it can't be ruined like this. And if those people knew that he had betrayed them, would they come to him to settle accounts, and would he have a peaceful birthday in the future? Therefore, the boss decided that asking questions and not knowing was the best strategy.
After making up his mind, the boss looked at the photo again, scratched his head, and smiled helplessly: "I haven't seen it, how can we live in such a small hotel, and she is also a countess, how can she take a fancy to a small hotel like ours?" ”
When Mrs. Hu heard this, she was anxious: "Boss, this foreign woman must have been here." Officer, the boss may be old and can't remember clearly, don't believe me, you ask that guy. ”
Seeing that the boss denied it, Mrs. Hu was afraid that she would not get the reward, so she hurriedly pulled a young man next to her, pointed to the photo and asked, "Little brother, have you ever seen this foreign woman?" ”
The young man looked at the boss, saw that the boss gave him a look, and quickly understood: "I haven't seen it, how can a foreign woman live in a place like ours, madam, you must be mistaken, she is a countess, and if she wants to live, she should also live in the Chinachem Hotel." ”
Mrs. Hu was completely disappointed, she looked at Feng Haiquan stupidly, with an innocent expression.
"Boss, please show me the accommodation registration book." Feng Haiquan stretched out his hand to the boss to ask for the accommodation registration book.
"Yes, yes, there will be one in the accommodation register." When Mrs. Hu saw Feng Haiquan asking the innkeeper for the accommodation registration book, she felt bright and nodded.
When the boss heard this, he could only take out the accommodation registration book from the counter and hand it to Feng Haiquan.
Feng Haiquan flipped to the registration form the day before yesterday, and there were a total of eight people's check-in records the day before yesterday. Only the date was written on the check-in record, there was no specific time, Feng Haiquan deduced that if it was a night check-in, the name should be written on the back, and he looked at the last three names: Qian Rong, Lin Yanan, and Hu Dengkui. The number of rooms is one, but the number of rooms in Lin Yanan's line has obviously been changed, like changing 3 to 1.
"Boss, when did these last three people stay in?" Feng Haiquan pointed to the names of Qian Rong, Lin Yanan and Hu Dengkui.
"Let me think about it." The boss seemed to be trying his best to recall the situation that day: "Oh, I remember, this Qian Rong and Lin Yanan seem to have come in the afternoon, and that Hu Dengkui came to register in the evening." ”
"Oh, officer, this Hu Dengkui is my husband." Mrs. Hu hurriedly explained to Feng Haiquan.
Feng Haiquan glanced back at Mrs. Hu, and then continued to ask the innkeeper, "This Qian Rong and Lin Yanan both came in the afternoon?" ”
In fact, the boss knew in his heart that Lin Yanan came to check in at night, but if he was honest, wouldn't he verify the words of this lady, so he advanced Lin Yanan's check-in time.
"Then why did this 3 change to 1?" Feng Haiquan was still a little skeptical.
"Oh, I made a mistake, they were three people, booking a room, but with a shake of my hand, I wrote it wrong."
Feng Haiquan was a little skeptical about the boss's answer, but the excuse of clerical error also made sense, and he looked at the boss, hoping to capture some information from his face: "Then this Lin Yanan and his party are three people?" ”
"Yes, three." The boss is very calm, after all, it is an old dock, and this kind of psychological quality is still there.
"Is there a woman in here?" Feng Haiquan remembered that Mrs. Hu said that there was a woman among the three Chinese.
"What are you kidding, sir, I'm in a serious business, how can I open a room for two men and a woman, if this gets out, I won't be able to do business? Sir, those three are all men. The innkeeper vehemently denied it.
"Boss, I don't think your business is necessarily serious." Mrs. Hu saw that the innkeeper had smashed her share of the reward that was about to be received, and she was very resentful, so she began to attack: "If you are serious business, how can my husband and that vixen come to your place to open a house?" ”
"Hey, hey, don't bite your wife, okay, you don't have the ability to look at your man, what's the point of spilling your anger on me, how can I know that your husband and his concubine are not husband and wife? They checked in as husband and wife, how do I know that the woman is not his wife, but he arranged flowers? Please, Mrs. Hu, fight for your own breath, tie your man tightly, don't come to me to make trouble whenever something happens, you made a fuss that day, two guests checked out later, are you responsible for this loss? ”
The innkeeper was a character, and Mrs. Hu's words provoked him to shoot like a machine gun, making Mrs. Hu unable to parry, and tears flowed down her eyes.
Feng Haiquan couldn't look at it, closed the registration book vigorously, and threw it to the boss: "A man and a woman are chirping, what do they look like, go." ”
Feng Haiquan greeted him: "Mrs. Hu, where do you live, I'll send you back." ”
When the innkeeper saw that Feng Haiquan had spoken, he was silent, and he was relieved to see them go away.
