Chapter 104: Drunken Dinner
I have to say that this Liu Guandou is really polite to Luo Feng and Wang Xiaoshan, it should be said that he is very polite to the ten couples sent by Detective X, and they are basically responsive. However, Liu Guandou's purpose is also very obvious, he hopes to use Detective X's ability to find the person who killed Ke Kangquan as soon as possible.
"Did you find anything in the morgue today?" Liu Guandou's intention was very obvious as soon as he opened his mouth, and he himself smiled embarrassedly, "The message Detective X gave me didn't say what the identities of your ten couples were, I can only ask every time I find any of you who has moved." β
Before coming, Luo Feng and Wang Xiaoshan had all kinds of conjectures about this famous Liu tycoon, and they also guessed that he might be an approachable old cadre, but they didn't expect it to be so honest that he seemed to be a little introverted.
"Compared to the superficial clues we saw in the morgue, it was you Liu Dong who surprised us a little more." Wang Xiaoshan is a girl after all, her emotional sense is more delicate than Luo Feng, and she obviously feels a sense of incongruity shown by Liu Guandou.
"What do you mean by that?" That Liu Guandou felt that what Wang Xiaoshan said seemed to mean, but he didn't understand it all of a sudden.
"You don't seem to care much about the murderer."
Liu Guandou was surprised by Wang Xiaoshan's answer, "How come?" Because we have hired you to come over to assist in the investigation at a high price, and several of our shareholders themselves are fully involved in person, and now we have put down all the things to deal with this matter. β
"Maybe Liu Dong, you attach great importance to this matter, but you are not afraid. It stands to reason that if someone comes out to kill themselves, they will have insomnia for at least a few days, but Liu Dong, you are full of energy, radiant, and without the slightest anxiety. There are only two situations in which you will be like this, either you know who the killer is, or you are the murderer yourself. β
Liu Guandou smiled, Wang Xiaoshan's words didn't seem to frighten him, "There is a third possibility, if I have already experienced many crime scenes, I am naturally accustomed to the so-called death threat." β
"Sure enough, I boldly guessed before, the shareholders of several of you Jinding Hotel did not earn the first pot of gold in the beginning," Wang Xiaoshan glanced at Liu Guandou's eyes, Liu Guandou's eyes were panicked for a moment, Wang Xiaoshan knew that he had guessed correctly, the front was all clichΓ©s, just waiting for Liu Guandou to admit it himself, "Of course, we are not here to reveal what you are doing, I just thought of a possibility, when you were young, you used all kinds of means that are not very visible in the process of making money, Did you offend anyone? β
"That's a lot," Liu Guandou thought for a moment, "and there are not a few people who even say that they want to take our lives." β
"I'll help you narrow it down, and I'm looking for someone who can have something to do with the Jinding Hotel."
Liu Guandou thought about it again, but still shook his head, "I didn't think of any outstanding characters." β
"Since you don't have an impression of outsiders, then we can only put the object of suspicion on insiders."
"Internal?" At this time, Liu Guandou was suddenly surprised, "You want to talk about ourselves?" β
"That's right, who better to know each other than a few of you shareholders of Jinding Hotel? Especially before you earned the first pot of gold in your life, you did those shady things, probably a few of you know each other best. β
Liu Guandou fell into deep thought and didn't say anything more.
"Are you really going to kill him?" Seeing that everyone stopped talking, Luo Feng really couldn't help the desire to pursue the truth in his heart, and no matter how embarrassing it was, he directly asked the doubts in his heart.
Liu Guandou looked at Luo Feng in surprise, "We are here to save our lives now." β
"The Jinding Hotel is full of your people, it is estimated that it is unlikely that the other party will use force to confront you, if I am a murderer, arson, food poisoning, electric shock, these aspects will be considered."
"Thank you for the reminder, it's better to meet by chance, let's have dinner together tonight, all our shareholders are present, you can observe them one by one." It seems that in just a few words, Luo Feng and Wang Xiaoshan seem to have gained Liu Guandou's trust, at least their abilities have been recognized.
"Okay."
Luo Feng felt that asking further might involve the client's privacy, so after saying what he had to say, he consciously followed Wang Xiaoshan out of the conference room.
"It looks like they're determined to kill the murderer." Wang Xiaoshan has already determined the answer from Liu Guandou's answer.
Liu Guandou did not directly admit whether he wanted to kill the murderer, but answered Luo Feng in a way that shifted the focus, and the real answer in his heart was already very clear.
The dinner was in a VIP room arranged by Liu Guandou, and all the shareholders were there, and then Luo Feng and Wang Xiaoshan also sat down unceremoniously. I have to say that in terms of eating and drinking well, Luo Feng is not reserved at all, he should eat and drink, and don't talk about face. I have to say that this dinner is indeed quite rich, and even Wang Xiaoshan, who has always been a mouthful, did not open his mouth to criticize.
"You're Detective X?" Yang Jianmin walked towards Luo Feng with a glass of wine in his hand and a smile, "Come on, come on, have a drink." As he spoke, he poured wine for Luo Feng, "Don't worry, we pure masters don't embarrass the little girl." Yang Jianmin smiled at Wang Xiaoshan and did not pour wine for Wang Xiaoshan.
"Don't make fun of them, how can the famous Detective X be two students? They're supposed to be detective assistants who help gather information. Zhang Jitong felt that Yang Jianmin seemed to be a little too excited tonight, and he started drinking alone before everyone arrived.
"It's been a long time since our brothers got together, such a rare opportunity, let's have fun, Brother Zhang." Yang Jianmin drank the glass of wine in his hand as he spoke, and then poured another glass of wine, as soon as he finished pouring it, he raised the wine bottle, and said drunkly, "This wine is not simple, Brother Quan has treasured it for many years, if he didn't die, he would definitely open this bottle of wine tonight, so I will make the decision for him, and I will take this bottle of wine out of the cellar tonight, I'm sorry Brother Quan if you don't drink it." With that, he toasted again.
"Jianmin, drink less." Liu Guandou watched Yang Jianmin say a word and drink a glass of wine, so he hurriedly let Yang Jianmin return to his seat, "There are still guests tonight." β
"If you don't drink tonight, I don't know if I have a chance to drink, so get drunk when you should get drunk." Luo Feng and Wang Xiaoshan didn't fully understand what Yang Jianmin meant, but when they saw the eyes of the other shareholders, it seemed that those shareholders understood what Yang Jianmin meant.
Because tomorrow night Yang Jianmin is going to use himself alone on the roof as a bait to lure the murderer to kill him, although everyone is ready to ambush, but who can guarantee that Yang Jianmin will be safe?
