The ultra-luxury suite on the fifth floor of the Peninsula Hotel in Houseville, although the facilities are relatively old, there are many rooms and a lot of space.
The idler team includes Lu Ming, Yu Luan, Black Head, and Bald Quixon, and the nine people can live comfortably together.
The facilities are old and the reputation is no longer good, but it still remains stuck in its ways. The five-story hotel is all luxurious suites. On the top five floors, there are two ultra-luxury suites with more than a dozen rooms. The price is high, so where can there be tourists?
?
In the study, Lu Ming looked at the coded letter. There were some books at hand, and he read them one by one, shaking his head every time.
He doesn't need to know much about Western. If the first few letters don't form a phrase, the book won't be right.
Because it is a very simple password letter, the nine digits represent a code, and each three digits represent the page number, line number and word number.
But precisely because of its simplicity, if the correct codebook cannot be found, it will be difficult to crack.
On the other side, Isabel and Han Annie also used some books to try this coded letter.
In fact, the bald Quixon, Isabel's followers, and those close to her were also urgently trying to decipher this letter.
It was Isabel's suggestion to deliberately stay at the Peninsula Hotel, but it played into Lu Ming's plan.
There was a knock on the study door, and Yuluan's delicate voice said: "Master, Mr. Rooney is here to visit you."
Han Annie and Isabel both looked up in astonishment. Han Annie's bright eyes flashed, wondering if this guy could get some clues about the code book from Rooney? However, if the other party made a homemade code book, then he could only use
Stronger.
…
Outside the floor-to-ceiling windows of the living room, the scenery of the golden beach and azure sea is extremely beautiful.
Although floor-to-ceiling windows were installed for viewing, they were obviously out of harmony with the layout of the room, and the visual enjoyment was lost.
Rooney sat opposite Lu Ming, slowly sipping coffee and smiling slightly: "Mr. Lu, what are your plans after buying this place?"
Lu Ming's team from the East China Sea is already talking to him.
Lu Ming shook his head, "It's going to be a big renovation, and I'm going to launch an apartment hotel model. To put it simply, I'm going to transform the hotel into a relatively small suite, with about twenty rooms on one floor. That's it."
More than a hundred rooms are then sold to the outside world. From a private perspective, they can be used as investments. You can stay here for vacation. They are usually managed by the hotel. After a guest stays in the room bought by the investor, the hotel and the investor will follow certain rules.
Proportional share.”
"If promoted properly, this kind of tourist apartment hotel can easily become a hot spot. It will not be difficult to sell it to external parties, and it will not be difficult to source tourists in the future. Even the more than 100 investors will become our loyal promoters."
Rooney was stunned for a while. After a while, he sighed and said, "Mr. Lu is really a business wizard!" He smiled again: "This makes me feel relieved. Mr. Lu, I have already told my team that the hotel
and the club will be sold to you for a symbolic price of 10,000 yuan. I have also given full authority to my wife. If you agree, your team and my team will negotiate tomorrow. You and my wife can also
Officially signed."
He smiled mysteriously again: "It's hard to find a true friend, right?"
Lu Ming was slightly startled: "Authorize it to your wife?"
Rooney smiled and said: "Yes, in addition to talking about business with you, I am here today to surrender to the Special Bureau of Investigation. You are an official of the Special Bureau of Investigation, right?"
Lu Ming waved his hand: "I'm not the official investigator. Wait a minute, I'll call someone over!"
Rooney smiled, "Okay, I'll wait."
…
Lu Ming slowly lit a cigar in the outer room. In the inner room, Han Annie and Quixon were taking notes for Rooney.
"Teacher, are you worried?" Isabel came over and naturally sat down next to Lu Ming. She was dressed in snow-white clothes and sapphire crystal high-heeled sandals. She had a pair of snow-white jade feet painted with light blue toenail polish.
This beautiful girl suddenly transformed into a beautiful girl. She is eighteen or nineteen years old. She can be very young or old. It depends on how she dresses to highlight her youthful or mature temperament.
There was a faint fragrance, and she was very close. Lu Ming was a little helpless. She was a young girl in her 18s and 19s, and she was not a little bean sprout like Bisi. It was very difficult to watch it as a daughter. You girl, I feel like I found it in this movie.
Fatherly love, but the psychological difficulties I have to overcome are not ordinary.
"I also think it's a bit strange. This guy suddenly surrendered. It's very strange!" Isabel asked and answered herself, thinking that the teacher was also thinking about this question.
Lu Ming was not surprised that the case took a turn of events. He was involved in all of this, but he did not expect that the other party would choose to surrender, and that Rooney would surrender.
In fact, Lu Ming deciphered the coded letter on the first day he returned to Houseville.
The cipher letter is not too long. If each code represents a griffinian letter, the letter may be as short as a dozen words.
Lu Ming had visited Rooney's study a few times when discussing business. He was a little surprised by the few Central Continent books in his study, because although Rooney could speak the Central Continent dialect, he obviously didn't like the Central Continent culture. Those books
, Lu Ming was deeply impressed.
He secretly ordered Yuluan to buy a comparison and then tried out the code book.
Later, Lu Ming also wrote a coded letter and asked Yu Luan to secretly send it to Rooney's office. Of course, even Rooney did not see Yu Luan.
The group stayed at the Peninsula Hotel, which was very convenient for Yuluan.
Lu Ming's letter said that it is no longer possible for your organization to conceal the assassination of the Duke of Haussburg. In order to preserve the fire, it is better to cut off the tail as soon as possible and sacrifice some members of the organization to preserve the hope of the remaining members to continue the fire.
In the letter, Lu Ming also used the words "a close friend is hard to find".
When Rooney and Lu Ming met, they both said that "a close friend is hard to find."
Lu Ming knew that he should have some suspicions that he was the one who secretly tipped them off, but he wasn't sure.
Selling the property to yourself for 10,000 yuan is actually a kind of reward.
Of course, on the surface, it is not surprising that this kind of negative equity is half sold and half given away.
I didn't expect that Rooney's organization would resolve the matter by surrendering, and it was Rooney who surrendered.
It seems that Rooney's status in the organization is much higher than he thought, because if he does not sacrifice a very important leader and does not pay the price of half of the organization being wiped out, this shocking case will indeed be difficult to resolve.
In particular, the root of the problem has been found, the code letters have been intercepted and cracked, and the mysterious person secretly helped him, just to buy him time.
Looking at Isabel who was frowning and thinking over there, Lu Ming said: "Forget it, from today on, this case will no longer be under our control. We have already done what we should do."
Isabel thought about it for a moment, "That's what the teacher said!" She stretched out her white hands and said, "Teacher, don't even think about it. Give me the cigar. Smoking too much is bad for your health!"
Lu Ming had no choice but to pass the cigar over. At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Quixon and Han Anni walked in.
"It seems that the case is complete, and most of what he told is true!" Quixon was a little excited, "About the assassination plan, the details were explained very clearly, and the assassination incident can be confirmed one by one, and ah
, including when we first came to Houseville, he ordered people to set fires and set up false fire alarms, just to take advantage of our unstable footing and steal materials to see what clues we found. He has confessed all these."
"In addition, he also told many people, including..." Quixon paused, "Who would have thought that the Privy Councilor of the Hausberg family was also an important figure in the separatist organization?!" He glanced at the densely packed list.
Han Annie, Quixon said: "Director Han, what should we do?"
Annie Han is the senior deputy director of investigations, two levels higher than Quixon.
As for Isabel, the senior director of investigations, Quakerson knew that he could not get along with her.
"You and I will report to Minister Nelson!" Han Annie glanced at Isabel.
Isabel left all the investigation procedures and other matters to her, so she nodded and said, "Well, let's go ahead."
Quixon smiled bitterly at the side: "Now there will be another hundred political prisoners in the prison, alas!"
He should have vaguely thought that Rooney had other reasons for surrendering, and with such a surrender, the assassination became a political incident. According to imperial law, several executioners were dead. According to Rooney's explanation, several direct
The plotters might be hanged, and the rest would be thrown into prison as political prisoners, which in fact would only treat the symptoms rather than the root cause.
But for his boss, everyone will be happy if the case is closed like this. Political matters should be handled as quickly and as low-key as possible.
He shook his head, unable to take it seriously and insisting on finding out the true purpose of Rooney's surrender.
He glanced at Lu Ming again and said with a wry smile: "Consultant Lu, I'm afraid you will become a celebrity in this bureau from now on."
Just after the action was taken, less than half a month later, the case was solved and an important person from the other party was forced to surrender.
Moreover, no more violent incidents broke out, such as sending out a large number of police officers to encircle and suppress the situation. This is what the bosses are most happy to see.
I recommended Lao Lu for nothing.
As for Her Excellency Isabel and her retinues, they will also add a lot to their resumes. They have made extraordinary achievements as soon as they entered the Special Investigation Bureau.
This kind of real talent will gradually form her prestige, instead of those second-generation nobles who rely on their laurels.
It can be said that everyone is happy.
However, Quixon smiled bitterly. If this continues, I always feel that this empire will be riddled with holes and have too many hidden dangers. It will be like a giant covered with abscesses. If you don't have the heart to bear the pain of cutting off these abscesses,
Sooner or later, he will become seriously ill.
Over there, Lu Ming pondered that according to the values of this world, Rooney would not be regarded as a traitor by the separatists. On the contrary, his reputation would be greatly improved after being imprisoned. After all, he may be imprisoned for life and never be released, unless there is an amnesty.
kind.
But there is no problem for him to release information to the outside world and remotely separate the organization.
He vaguely guessed that he had helped his organization, but he was not sure that it was him. This was for the best.
