In the guest rest area at the stairway on the fifth floor, a man with gold-rimmed glasses sat on a chair, his suitcase on the coffee table, and he raised his wrist from time to time to look at his watch.
Jiang Xinyu suddenly felt vigilant. This man's behavior was too weird. He hurried upstairs instead of going to his room. Instead, he sat here to rest...
"What room number does Lan Die'er live in?" Tong Tong couldn't hide her excitement. She was completely unaware of all this.
"she……"
Passing by the rest area, Jiang Xinyu glanced out of the corner of his eye and noticed that the man with gold-rimmed glasses was slowly placing his hand on the suitcase, and his fingers touched a raised part.
A word suddenly flashed into Jiang Xinyu's mind: bomb detonation button!
Although I don’t know who he is targeting, if it is indeed a bomb, no one within a few dozen meters will be spared!
In the flash of lightning, Jiang Xinyu didn't have time to think carefully, he pushed Tong Tong away and shouted: "Be careful!"
Tong Tong was looking around excitedly, but he didn't expect something unexpected to happen. He was caught off guard and fell to the ground with a plop.
At the same time, Jiang Xinyu rushed over and knocked the man with gold-rimmed glasses over with his body. The suitcase fell to the ground, and the water cups and ashtrays on the coffee table were scattered everywhere.
Suddenly this scene happened, and several followers behind the man in gray trench coat quickly dispersed, each with an extra pistol in their hands, protecting the man in trench coat from the front, back, left and right.
Jiang Xinyu pinned the man with gold-rimmed glasses to the ground, twisted his hands, and shouted sternly: "Be honest!"
The man in the trench coat observed for a while and found no more danger, so he said to the entourage beside him: "Go over and see what's going on!"
"Yes!" A follower stepped over.
The man in the trench coat spoke with an obvious Jiangshan accent. When Jiang Xinyu heard the familiar dialect of his hometown, he couldn't help but look up. The man in the trench coat also saw Jiang Xinyu's appearance clearly, and then signaled his entourage to stop.
The man with gold-rimmed glasses struggled and shouted: "Let me go!"
Jiang Xinyu exerted a little force on his hand and said, "You can let me go and tell me, what's in the box?"
The face of the man with gold-rimmed glasses changed, and he said calmly: "You, what are you talking about, I don't understand!"
The man in the trench coat pondered for a moment and whispered something to the attendant. The attendant quickly walked over and squatted on the ground to inspect the suitcase.
Jiang Xinyu warned: "Don't touch the box!"
The attendant ignored Jiang Xinyu and discovered that the suitcase had a combination lock. He took out a dagger from his trouser leg, inserted it into the gap in the suitcase, pressed the suitcase with one hand and used force with the other to pry open the suitcase.
There was nothing in the suitcase. It was indeed an empty suitcase.
Several hotel guards rushed over after hearing the sound, and just as they were about to ask, an attendant took out his ID card, shook it, and said, "It's none of your business here! Watch the stairs, no one is allowed to come up!"
The certificate was stamped "Military Commission Investigation and Statistics Bureau". The guards looked at each other in disbelief, knowing that these were untouchable people, so they resignedly retreated.
The man in the windbreaker walked over, looked Jiang Xinyu up and down, and said pleasantly: "Are you Jiang Xinyu from Yanjin Station?"
Judging from the situation at the scene, there is no doubt that this person is a big shot. Jiang Xinyu was still confused and said: "I'm sorry, I don't seem to recognize you..."
The man in the trench coat took off his sunglasses and said, "My surname is Dai!"
This man has regular features, two thick eyebrows, and piercing eyes. Even if he doesn't say a word, he can still let people feel the aura of calmness and self-power!
Tong Tong had already stood up and limped over. He happened to hear these words and said casually: "What's so great about the surname Dai..."
A follower next to him scolded: "What a shame!"
The man in the windbreaker stretched out his hand to stop the follower, looked at Tong Tong, smiled and said, "I know you too, you are Miss Tong."
Tong Tong was stunned and muttered: "You must be Sun Houhou, how come you know everyone?"
The man in the trench coat laughed and said, "They say that Tong Lao Er's daughter is not easy to mess with. It seems that the rumors are true."
"Do you know my father?" Tong Tong was so surprised that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear.
Tong Wanqi is the second person in the family. With his status today, few people dare to call him "Tong Laoer" to his face!
An attendant said a name in Jiang Xinyu's ear. From the moment the man in the windbreaker said his last name was Dai, Jiang Xinyu had already guessed a little bit, but he was not sure yet.
He quickly stood up, bowed and said: "Jiang Xinyu, captain of the Yanjin Station Action Team, has met Boss Dai!"
The man in the windbreaker - Boss Dai said: "Captain Jiang, if I hadn't seen your photo, I wouldn't have recognized you!"
Tong Tong stared wide-eyed and said, "Are you Dai...the boss?"
Boss Dai smiled and said, "Would you like to see my ID?"
"Okay..." Tong Tong nodded.
Jiang Xinyu coughed lightly and whispered: "Tongtong, don't mess around!"
Boss Dai didn't pay attention. He glanced at the man with myopic glasses surrounded by his entourage and said to Jiang Xinyu, "Is there something wrong with this man?"
"Wait a moment."
Jiang Xinyu picked up the suitcase, touched the raised button, pondered for a moment, checked the suitcase twice, and finally discovered the problem.
The leather of the suitcase is very hard, but there is a spot on the side that feels soft to the touch. When pressed hard, the leather on the surface breaks. In fact, it is just a thin layer, and a round hole as thick as a finger is exposed inside.
Boss Dai ordered: "Unpack the box!"
The entourage used the dagger three times to divide the suitcase into pieces, and the mechanism inside was revealed to everyone.
This is a specially made suitcase. Inside is a device similar to a crossbow. There is a bright steel needle hanging on the circlip. The raised button is actually a launch switch. As long as you press it hard, the steel needle will release from the
Shoot out of the round hole!
Jiang Xinyu suddenly realized that no wonder the man with gold-rimmed glasses went upstairs to wait first. This kind of ancient hidden weapon can only be fired accurately from a fixed position.
In other words, during movement, the steel needle is likely to deviate from the target. In order to ensure a hit, the man with gold-rimmed glasses waited here to carry out the assassination.
The reason why he didn't use a gun was probably because he was worried that he wouldn't be able to pass the various inspections. Furthermore, with so many experienced agents protecting him, he might become a sieve before he even took out his gun!
"Boss Dai, look." The attendant carefully removed the steel needle.
Under the reflection of the light, the steel needle shines with a bright blue light. Anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that the needle is quenched with a poison that seals the throat when it sees blood!
Two attendants pushed the man with gold-rimmed glasses over and said, "He was searched. This is his ID."
The name on the certificate is Liu Chunhua.
Boss Dai walked up to Liu Chunhua with a gloomy face and said, "Say the name of the person behind the scenes and I will let you live!"
Liu Chunhua scratched his neck and said, "No one is instructing me. I don't like you, so I want to kill you!"
Director Dai pondered for a moment and suddenly said: "How do you know I will definitely go to the fifth floor?"
Liu Chunhua was silent, lowering his head and looking at his feet.
Boss Dai turned around and said, "Captain Jiang, take this man back and be sure to pry his mouth open!"
Jiang Xinyu bowed and said, "Yes! I'll call the station and ask someone to come over..."
Liu Chunhua sneered and said: "You want to torture me? There is no way!"
As he spoke, he suddenly lowered his head and bit his collar.
Before anyone could react, Liu Chunhua collapsed on the ground, his body twitching, and dark red blood foam continued to spurt out from his mouth, nose, and ears.
Tong Tong hid behind Jiang Xinyu in fear and said in a trembling voice: "What's wrong with him?"
Everyone watched quietly. They all knew that this was a symptom of swallowing potassium cyanide, and there was no time to save him!
