In the room, Wang Kejie stood in front of the window, looking at Yanjin City when the lights were on, and said to himself with emotion: "I almost lost my life during this trip to Yanjin, but God bless me!"
“Tuk-tuk!”
There was a knock on the door.
"Come in." Wang Kejie turned around and sat on the sofa.
A guard stepped in, bowed and said: "Minister, we have already contacted you about your order, and the garrison headquarters has agreed to send an armored vehicle to escort you back to Peking."
Wang Kejie nodded with satisfaction and said, "I'll have to call later to thank Commander Shimomura."
The guard complimented and said: "You have a distinguished status, even General Tada has to give you some face."
"What time will we leave tomorrow?"
"You decide the time, the armored vehicles are on standby at any time."
"Ah, very good."
"Minister, would you like to have Japanese food for dinner?"
Wang Kejie was in a good mood, waved his hand and said: "Yanjin's seafood is very famous. If we don't try it, I'm afraid we won't have the chance this year."
"Are you dining in your room or going to the restaurant?"
“Go to the restaurant!”
The guard hesitated for a moment and said, "Those guys from the military command..."
Wang Kejie interrupted him and said unhappily: "What are you afraid of? They are like a group of rats crossing the street now. They don't even have time to escape. How dare they come to the hotel to commit murder?"
"That being said, you still have to be careful."
"As the saying goes, it takes a thousand days to raise an army, but it takes only a short time. I have spent a lot of money to support you, are you all just living for a living?"
"Yes, yes..." the guard agreed solemnly, not daring to say anything more.
At around six o'clock, Wang Kejie came out of the room and, under the protection of the guards, walked to the Chinese restaurant downstairs.
There is no precedent for the assassination operations carried out by the military commander in various places. If the first attempt is unsuccessful, the second attempt will be carried out immediately. Generally, they will be transferred immediately or go into hibernation to avoid the enemy's search.
The guard booked a private room in the Chinese restaurant in advance. The crowd gathered around Wang Kejie and walked into the private room. The guard stood outside the door and stared at everyone who appeared in the restaurant.
Tao Jianming and Daniu walked in through the kitchen door. A manager came over, looked at their clothes, and said, "Why do the housekeepers come to the restaurant?"
Tao Jianming said calmly: "It said that we should help with the cooking. If it is not needed, then we will go back..."
When he heard that Bai Gan was here to work, the manager said: "Now is the busiest time in the restaurant and we are in need of manpower. It's rare that Manager Li is so considerate. Please help clear the tables."
"Yes." Tao Jianming pulled the bull, picked up the tray and walked out.
There are more than 200 employees in Asia Hotel. One advantage of them pretending to be housekeepers is that they will not be exposed on the spot, and the restaurant manager will not immediately check with the guest room department because of such a trivial matter.
"What should we do if he hides in the room and won't come out?" Daniel said in a low voice.
Tao Jianming put the cups and plates on the tray and said, "I'm going to take action this time, you cover me!"
"good!"
The two of them had planned their escape route in advance, and went out through the back door of the kitchen and through the staff passage, where there were no hotel security personnel.
About forty minutes later, Wang Kejie finished his meal. He wiped his mouth with the napkin that he still had some unfinished thoughts about, and said, "I heard that the chef of the Asian restaurant was a royal chef. He is indeed well-deserved!"
Guard: "I just made inquiries. The cook's father is the royal chef in the palace. It is a family skill. The taste of the dishes will definitely be the same!"
Wang Kejie smiled and said: "So, I am treated like an emperor today!"
As he spoke, he stood up and walked out. As soon as he left the room, the guards would protect him from the front and back, sandwiching him in the middle. Even if an assassin wanted to take action, it would be difficult to aim!
Through some observation, Tao Jianming grasped this rule. He knew that his opportunity was the moment Wang Kejie walked out of the room!
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
As soon as Wang Kejie walked out of the room, Tao Jianming did not hesitate, quickly took out his pistol, pulled the trigger and fired a burst. One guard was shot in the head and died on the spot!
Wang Kejie had a very sneaky eye. When he saw a cleaner suddenly put his hand into his waist, he knew something was wrong. After so many years of avoiding assassinations, he had accumulated a certain amount of prevention experience.
Tao Jianming raised his pistol, and Wang Kejie subconsciously dodged. The bullet hit his right shoulder, and another bullet grazed his scalp.
Tao Jianming secretly shouted: "What a pity!"
He didn't dare to fight. Although he killed one guard, there were still three guards on the other side. Besides, the police would be here soon. The most important thing now was to retreat safely!
"boom!"
"boom!"
"boom!"
A guard shouted: "Guo Yan, hurry up, protect the director and go back to the room!"
They didn't know how many killers were coming. Bullets were flying in the restaurant. Naturally, the sooner they left, the safer they would be. A guard named Guo Yan protected Wang Kejie and ran upstairs.
"boom!"
Daniel raised his hand and shot out the largest chandelier in the restaurant. The glass decoration of the chandelier crashed to the floor. The guests who were dining at the dining table were holding their heads and hiding around, and there were also women's screams in the middle.
Taking advantage of the chaos, Tao Jianming ran into the kitchen. In the horrified eyes of the cooks, he and Daniel went out through the back door and used a mop to secure the door.
In the corridor on the fourth floor, Guo Yan followed Wang Kejie with a pistol and asked as he walked: "Minister, are you okay?"
Wang Kejie gritted his teeth and said, "I can't die! Leave quickly!"
When he was approaching the door of the room, Jiang Xinyu came out of the darkness and said eagerly: "Minister Wang, what happened downstairs?"
Guo Yan raised his pistol vigilantly and shouted: "Don't move, who are you!"
Wang Kejie: "Don't panic, we are one of our own!"
On Yunhe North Street, Wang Kejie met Jiang Xinyu and knew that he was the captain of the detective team. At that time, he sent someone to escort him back to the hotel.
Jiang Xinyu saw the gunshot wound on Wang Kejie's shoulder and said, "Are you injured? Come into the room quickly!"
Guo Yan took out the key, walked quickly to the door, and unlocked the door. Although he was still holding the pistol, he was no longer wary of Jiang Xinyu.
Wang Kejie kicked the door in and out, turned around and said: "Captain Jiang, thank you..."
"You're welcome!" Jiang Xinyu raised the pistol equipped with a silencer, "Pfft!" "Pfft!" After two dull gunshots, Wang Kejie and Guo Yan both fell at the door.
Jiang Xinyu stepped forward quickly, tested their arteries, and then stood up. "Pfft!" "Pfft!" Each person took another shot, and then turned around and went downstairs from another staircase.
In the employee passage, Tao Jianming and Daniel had just walked halfway when they suddenly heard rapid footsteps coming from the opposite side. Someone said loudly: "The gunman ran out of the kitchen and probably escaped through this road. Please be careful, everyone, bullets are everywhere."
