Chapter 656 Investigation(1/2)
"So, you think that threatening letter may be related to the employees who were laid off by the hotel?"
Baron Ackerman shrugged, "I don't know.
But I know those employees who have been laid off. Some of them cherish this job and need it very much.
Once they are laid off, it will be a huge blow to them personally and to their families.
I sympathize with their plight, but there is nothing I can do about it."
Luke asked, "Are any of these laid off people strongly dissatisfied with the hotel?"
Barron Ackerman thought for a moment and said, "There was indeed a person who caused a commotion in the hotel after he was laid off."
"Why was he laid off?"
"He received a complaint from a customer who is a long-term customer of our hotel."
"What is the reason for the complaint?"
"Star Harassment."
Luke said, "This complaint is very serious."
"Yes, it took the hotel's senior management to come forward to resolve the matter, otherwise the customers would probably choose to call the police, so I personally think the punishment for layoffs is not serious.
However, he did not admit that he had ever harassed customers, and he went to the hotel twice to cause trouble, and once he almost made a move."
Luke said, "I would like a list of recent layoffs and information."
"I'm afraid I can't do it tonight. I have to report to Vice President Kieron Powell tomorrow and I need to get his approval."
Luke settled for the next best thing, "I want to know the name and information of the employee who was fired for harassment."
"Now?"
"Yes."
"OK, let me think of a way." Barron Ackerman went to the balcony and made a phone call. After a while, he returned to the guest room. "I only found his name and mobile phone number. The detailed information will be needed tomorrow."
Only then can we find out.”
"Your name and phone number are enough."
"Ron Winters, cell phone number, 702 876 3578"
Luke wrote down his name and mobile phone number, "I will investigate this person's situation as soon as possible."
Barron Ackerman stood up and said, "Mr. Li, then I won't disturb your rest.
If you need anything, you can contact me at any time.”
"Thank you." Luke sent the other person out of the room.
Luke walked to the coffee table, opened the bag and looked at the red wine, then opened the bottle of red wine and poured himself a glass.
He walked to the balcony with a wine glass and made a phone call, "Hi, beauty, good evening.
It was pretty smooth.
That's right, I need you to help me investigate a person."
…
The next morning.
Luke got the information about the hotel's layoffs.
The hotel has laid off eight people, all of whom are junior employees of the hotel, including three men and five women.
Luke carefully looked at the information of these eight people. Two of them had criminal records, including the Ron Winters mentioned last night.
Luke borrowed a car from the hotel and drove to Ron Winters' address.
Polk community.
A black Audi car parked in front of a gray two-story building.
The cab door opened, and Luke got out of the car, glanced around, and then walked towards the gray two-story building.
"Dong dong."
Luke knocked on the door.
After a while, the door opened, and a red-haired woman stood at the door, looking at Luke and asking, "Who are you looking for?"
"Is this Ron Winters' house?"
"No, you are looking in the wrong place." The woman's voice was hard, as if it was filled with emotion.
"Ma'am, what's your name?"
"Before asking others, shouldn't you introduce yourself first?" The red-haired woman looked at the road with a scrutinizing gaze.
"I'm a friend of Ron Winters."
"Then you should go find him instead of coming to my house."
Luke spread his hands and said, "This is the address he gave me."
"He moved away."
"Can I ask about your relationship with him?"
"I'm his ex-girlfriend."
"I wonder where he went?"
"Either in a woman's bed or wandering on the street, who knows where he is?" The red-haired woman curled her lips, "Why don't you contact him directly."
"I want to, but his cell phone can't be connected."
The red-haired woman sneered, "That means his mobile phone is in arrears. If you want to contact him, help him top up."
"Bang!" the woman said and closed the door directly.
Luke "..."
If you want to find him, you have to pay him the phone bill first, which Luke thinks is a bit nonsense.
What's even more ridiculous is that after he paid the phone bill, the call was indeed able to be connected.
"Hey, who are you?" A confused voice came from the other side of the phone.
"The person who pays your phone bill."
"Why do you do such a stupid thing? You might as well buy me a drink, haha."
"I'm in the bar in Barstow. If you want to drink, come over."
"Wait, who are you? What do you want from me?"
"I am the inspector of Hotel Nitro and I want to know something from you."
"I have already been laid off by you, and you still want to censor me.
Fuck, are you crazy?"
"Don't worry, this may be a good thing for you."
"Shit, can you still let me go back to work in the hotel?
The woman who complained about me is a platinum VIP of the hotel, and there is no way the hotel would offend her because of me."
"Perhaps, you really can't go back to the hotel to work, but the hotel can give you a recommendation letter.
You can use this recommendation letter to apply for jobs at other hotels.
At least I don’t have to wander the streets anymore.”
After a long time, Ron Winters sighed, "You're right, it can't be worse than it is now."
Half an hour later, Luke met Ron Winters at the Barstow Bar.
According to the information provided by Barron Ackerman, Ron Winters was laid off less than a month ago, but his current outfit is no different from that of a homeless man.
With messy hair, stubble on his face, and a torn leather jacket, it would be difficult for Luke to recognize him immediately if he met him on the street.
Luke waved his hand, "Ron Winters, I'm here."
Ron Winters came forward and looked at Luke carefully before sitting on his seat, "Who are you?"
"Just call me Luke."
"May I have a beer?"
"certainly."
Luke waved and asked the waiter to bring him a glass of beer.
Ron Winters picked up the beer glass, took a big sip, and drank half of it.
"happy!
I just feel like a human being now." Ron Winters wiped his mouth and looked at Luke, "Are you sent from the Nitro Hotel?"
"Yes."
"What do you think when you see your former employees turning into this?"
"I know that Nitro Hotel laid off a group of people some time ago, including you.
I’m here to verify the reasons for layoffs this time.”
"Haha." Ron Winters sneered, "I was tricked by someone, by a disgusting old woman."
"I know you have been feeling aggrieved since you were laid off, and you have also gone to the hotel to complain. Can you tell me the reason?"
Ron Winters swallowed, took another sip of beer, and asked, "Are you really going to give me a hotel recommendation?"
"certainly."
