Chapter 20: The Fish That Slipped Through the Net
China's household registration system has existed since ancient times.
In fact, as early as the Han and Tang dynasties, there was a 'public inspection' system for people to go out to prove their identity.
In the first year of the Republic of China, the government of the Republic of China re-standardized the household registration system.
However, due to the large number of warlords, the hukou system varies from place to place. On the whole, however, the decree has been implemented everywhere. When ordinary people go out, they will carry an ID card to prove their identity. Of course, there are also differences in the style of ID cards in different places.
This kind of identity certification system can strengthen the management of household registration on the one hand, and on the other hand, it does provide convenience.
When you go out, you must have proof of this, otherwise it will be very troublesome to stay in the hotel.
Qi County is a small county town, and the rules are not too big.
However, after Ma Sanyuan took over the Tongfu Hotel, he also strengthened the identity registration system. Most of the guests staying in the hotel have an ID card that can prove their identity...... This is called a rule.
"Third master, business is good!"
Zhang Baoxin wanted to check the registration book, and Ma Sanyuan naturally did not dare to refuse.
He sat at a dining table, flipped through the register, and from time to time he picked up a piece of ear and put it in his mouth.
"It's New Year, and you still have so many customers in this store? Eighteen people! ”
"Hehe, our New Year's Day here is different from other places, so the business is okay."
"Wang He!"
Zhang Baoxin didn't care about Ma Sanyuan's explanation, took the registration book, and suddenly read a name.
"The little ones are here, they're here."
"Jinan people? What are you doing here? ”
"Oh, the small one is to make homegrown products, Qi County's silk-wrapped duck eggs are very famous, and they sell very well in our place. So I would come here about four or five times a year, and every time I came to Qi County, I would live here. ”
Qi County silk egg is a local specialty duck egg.
A large, double egg yolk, after cooking, the egg yolk is yellow and red, and you can see that there are different color rings wrapped inside, winding the center from the outside to the inside. It is precisely for this reason that it is called a silk egg.
According to legend, the reason why this silk egg is different is because the duck usually eats another specialty of Qi County, Qihe crucian carp. It is highly nutritious, tastes good, fresh but not fishy. In the Ming and Qing dynasties, Qi County wrapped silk eggs that were tribute. In the fourth year of the Republic of China, that is, in 1914, San Francisco held a universal commodity competition to celebrate the opening of the Panama Canal, Qi County silk eggs were praised by countless countries.
"Really?"
Zhang Baoxin didn't raise his head.
Ma Sanyuan knew that he was asking himself.
So, he hurriedly replied: "Yes, Lao Wang has been winding silk eggs from here for more than ten years." He came five times last year and this is the first time this year...... Brother Shunyo also knows him, and it's not false at all. ”
"Lao Wang, go back and sit, drink some wine, and suppress the shock."
Zhang Baoxin's tone was very kind, and Wang He was even a little flattered and thanked him again and again.
After asking a few more people, Zhang Shunyu came down from upstairs and whispered a few words in Zhang Baoxin's ear......
"Shunyo, you can check the register for me here and confirm my identity.
Don't be too rude, we're here today to find someone, not to kill someone! I'll take someone up to see it. ”
After Zhang Baoxin finished speaking, he got up and picked up the gun and went upstairs.
Ma Sanyuan recognized from the side that the gun in Zhang Baoxin's hand was a Mauser standard rifle, commonly known as M1924. In 1930, the Nationalist Government procured a batch specifically for equipping the Central Army.
It's a good gun!
Ma Sanyuan's gaze didn't stay on the gun for too long, and walked to Zhang Shunyu's side with a smile.
Zhang Baoxin also arrived at the staircase at this time.
He was about to go upstairs when he heard Zhang Shun say, "Why don't you see Miss Qiao?" ”
"Miss Joe?
When you said this, I realized that it seems that I haven't seen Miss Qiao for most of the day. At lunchtime, she came down to eat a bowl of steamed noodles and two sticky fires. After that, she went back to the house. ”
"Upstairs, no."
"What Miss Joe?"
Zhang Baoxin turned around suddenly, looked at Zhang Shunyu and asked.
Zhang Shunyu didn't care too much, and replied: "A guest from the south seems to be a college student from the Academia Sinica of the Republic of China." I heard that I came from Anyang to investigate the Yin Ruins on the spot. ”
"From the south?"
Zhang Shunyu grinned: "A mouthful of Beijing films, but with an obvious southern accent."
It's pretty good-looking, and it's a little glutinous when you speak, which sounds pretty good...... Hehe, it's a beauty. ”
Zhang Baoxin nodded, not asking.
He walked up the stairs, and Zhang Shunyu placed the registration book on the table.
"Third master, didn't you see Miss Qiao go out?"
This kid is very bad!
Ma Sanyuan still doesn't understand Zhang Shunyu's thoughts.
When Josie came, the way this guy looked at Josie wasn't quite right.
Privately, I also said that college students look different!
At this time, he asked about Josie, where could Ma Sanyuan not know his thoughts.
Shaking his head with a wry smile, he said helplessly: "I've been busy in the back kitchen in the afternoon, and I haven't paid attention to the situation outside at all." You also know that college students have a lot of problems and like to wander around, and I can't care about it. ”
"That's right!"
Zhang Shunyu spat out, beckoned a bandit to come over, and whispered a few words in his ear.
The bandit nodded, and turned to go out with his gun.
What are you going to do?
Ma Sanyuan didn't know very well, but he could vaguely guess what Zhang Shunyu meant, was he going to find Miss Qiao?
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The second floor, Tianzi No. 1 room.
Zhang Baoxin stood at the door, looking at the corpse lying at the door.
There was a carpet in the No. 1 room of Tianzi, and the blood had soaked through the carpet, and there was a chirping sound when you stepped on it.
He glanced at the corpse in the doorway, then walked into the living room again.
"Big brother, the rat and the old corn are dead."
A bandit greeted him and whispered in Zhang Baoxin's ear.
Zhang Baoxin nodded, his eyes falling on Mrs. Jin's corpse.
He stepped forward, wiped his mouth, raised Madame Kim's hand with the rifle in his hand, and suddenly sneered.
Immediately, he looked at the bedroom again, looked at the pile of clothes on the bed, and shook his head slightly.
Squatting down, he carefully examined the body of the mouse.
His eyes suddenly flashed, and he muttered to himself, "7.65mm bullets, this is a fucking PP automatic pistol bullet." ”
After saying that, he seemed to remember something, stood up and walked quickly to the corpse at the door.
Twenty pot-bellied box bullets......
In his eyes, a touch of lust suddenly flashed.
"Two people, two people!"
Zhang Baoxin turned around and yelled at the bandits in the room: "Search for me, there are still two small fish in this store." ”
Bandit old corn, died from box cannons.
The bandit rat died at the gunpoint of a German-style police gun.
It was a police pistol called Walther PPK, which had only been equipped with the German police force in 1929.
From this, Zhang Baoxin can judge that there must be two fish that have slipped through the net in this hotel!
