Jiang Xinyu left the room and walked along the stairs to the lobby on the first floor. When passing by the waiter's lounge, he suddenly remembered that the suitcase in Yamaguchi Ayako's wardrobe was exactly the same as the suitcase carried by the man yesterday! No wonder it looked so familiar.
!
He walked to the bar, took out his ID, waved it to the waiter, and said, "Police, what was the name of the customer who came out of your lounge last night?"
The waiter thought for a while and said, "It seems to be called Yang Feng... yes, it's Yang Feng. He had just checked out of the room."
"What room number does he live in?"
"Wait a moment, let me take a look."
The waiter took out the accommodation registration book and flipped through two pages: "It's Room 86."
No. 86? No. 87? There is only one wall between the two rooms!
Thinking of all the previous doubts, Jiang Xinyu had a vague feeling that there seemed to be some kind of special connection between Yang Feng and Yamaguchi Ayako. What exactly was it? He couldn't figure it out for a while.
…………
In a small restaurant, Zhou Renjie and two of his men were eating.
Zhou Renjie took a sip of his wine and said, "Fat man, you damn thing, be more cautious in your affairs from now on. Don't be so suspicious all the time that I get scolded by the sergeant!"
A fat black man sitting next to him picked up a wine bottle and filled it for Zhou Renjie, and said: "Captain, I can guarantee that there must be something wrong with that boy's suitcase. I have been working in the detective team for so many years, and I still feel this way.
There's none?"
"Then why didn't we find anything during the inspection?"
"Maybe I didn't check to understand..."
"Fart! I checked it myself, the Japanese also checked it, and no problem was found. Are you better than me? Better than the Japanese?"
The fat man said angrily: "What a ghost..."
Another team member said: "Captain, could it be that Yang Feng repackaged the suitcase?"
"Changeling?"
Zhou Renjie put down his wine glass, pondered for a long time, and said, "Our brothers have been monitoring the hotel. This guy didn't even go downstairs. He asked the waiter to bring his meals to the room. How can he change the package?"
"We lost him on the road, and during that period..."
The fat man immediately retorted: "No! Later I found the coachman who took him to the hotel. The coachman said that Yang Feng had not been in contact with anyone."
"Then there is only one possibility..."
"What?"
"His accomplices are also staying at the Asia Hotel!"
Zhou Renjie slapped his forehead and said, "Yeah, why the hell didn't I think of that! Let's go to the Asia Hotel!"
He stood up and walked out in a hurry, with the fat man following closely behind him: "Captain, is it too late to go now? Isn't he already running away?"
"Even if he runs away, at least he can leave traces behind."
The restaurant owner hurriedly chased them out of the counter, stopped in front of them, and said, "Captain Zhou, your bill hasn't been settled yet."
Zhou Renjie turned around: "Fat man, sign."
The boss grinned; "You want to sign again? Captain Zhou, I am running a small business and you always give me credit. I almost have no money to buy groceries."
Zhou Renjie's eyes widened: "Why are you crying about being poor? Are you afraid that I will blame you?"
"That's not what I meant, I meant..."
"That's not what I meant. Just leave him. It's the same old rules. You'll have to pay the bills!"
"But, your previous debt has been owed for more than three months. How about you settle some..."
"Money is tight lately, let's wait another day."
"Captain Zhou..."
"Did I give you face? It's endless... I eat at all the restaurants in Yanjin City, big and small. Which restaurant is as demanding as you? If you keep nagging me, your restaurant will be closed tomorrow!"
The fat man crookedly signed the words "Detective Team" on the bill, stuffed the bill into the boss's arms, and said with a smile: "Don't be too serious. Our captain comes here to eat because he thinks highly of you. If he doesn't like to eat cooked by your chef,
He has already gone to a big restaurant for food."
"Yes, yes." The boss didn't dare to speak anymore. He was really afraid that Zhou Renjie would close the restaurant.
Watching Zhou Renjie's car drive away, the boss cursed in a low voice at the back of the car: "You bastard, you're going to die!"
Half an hour later, the car slowly stopped in front of the Asia Hotel.
The fat man looked at the well-dressed men and women coming in and said, "Captain, we are here to investigate a case. Do we have to say hello to Major Hattori?"
Zhou Renjie stretched out his hand and knocked the fat man's peaked cap crookedly: "You haven't even said horoscope yet, what are you saying hello? What if you don't find anything, and you let the major scold me again?"
"what is it now?"
"What should we do? We are just investigating the case now. If we find any problems, it will not be too late to notify Major Hattori when we arrest someone!"
"Good morning, Captain!"
"Xiao Cui, stay in the car and pay more attention to the situation."
"yes."
"Fat man, come in with me!"
Zhou Renjie walked into the hotel lobby. He went straight to the bar and said to the waiter: "Take out the accommodation registration book for the guest room on the fourth floor."
"Sorry, our hotel has regulations. The accommodation registration book cannot be read to anyone casually..."
The fat man stood aside and pretended to be intimidating: "Boy, are you new? This is Captain Zhou of the detective team!"
Another waiter who knew Zhou Renjie hurriedly came over and said with a smile: "Captain Zhou, I'm sorry, he is really new here. Tell me if you have anything to say."
Zhou Renjie repeated impatiently: "Look at the guest room registration book on the fourth floor!"
"Wait a moment." The waiter found the registration book from the bar and handed it over.
Zhou Renjie flipped through page after page, thinking about his little ninety-nine. There were more than fifty guest rooms on the fourth floor, and the occupancy rate was close to 60%. In total, guests in thirty guest rooms were suspected.
The list of foreigners among the guests was screened out, leaving only the information of about a dozen Chinese guests, which greatly narrowed the scope of the investigation.
Assuming that Yang Feng did change his suitcase, it must be because he realized that he was being followed and monitored, otherwise there would be no need to do so. If the room where his accomplice lives is not too far away, it only takes a few minutes to
Complete the luggage packaging.
Zhou Renjie said to the waiter: "Check for me which rooms Yang Feng, who stayed in Room 86 yesterday, called during the three days he stayed!"
The waiter picked up the phone and dialed a few numbers: "Hey, this is the front desk. Please help me check the numbers dialed by Room 86 in the past three days... Yes, Room 86... Oh, okay."
Zhou Renjie: "How's it going? Have you found it?"
"In the past three days, apart from calling the restaurant to deliver meals, Yang Feng has not made any calls to other rooms."
This is strange. Ordinarily, if the subcontracting matter is real, the two parties must communicate in advance, or at least agree on a time.
Yang Feng never made any calls, so how did he contact his accomplices?
