Chapter 483: The Vegetarian Reporter’s Three Aces (3)
There was a car parked in front of the Beita Hotel.
Luo Xiangshan reported the contents of the investigation to Huo Tingchuan.
"According to reliable sources, Gao Cen and his two companions are indeed staying at the North Tower Hotel. The three of them are dressed in low-key clothes, probably to avoid being seen."
"There are still four days until the official-business exchange meeting. Is Gao Cen's behavior an attempt to manipulate the situation?"
Huo Tingchuan listened quietly.
He straightened his clothes and said, "You can only know what Gao Cen wants to do if you ask him."
——[Gao Cen cooperates with Qi Yi in the arsenal business, trying to monopolize the business with the Kingdom of Jin]
You can use the guard changing time to place this note.
Either they are from the Wanjun District or they are familiar with their work and rest schedules.
A figure suddenly appeared in Huo Tingchuan's mind.
He pinched his brows in annoyance.
Song Yuesheng went to Wanjun District only once, and there was no schedule in the reception room.
She couldn't possibly know.
Huo Tingchuan breathed a sigh of relief: "Have you found out who spread the news about Qi Yi so widely?"
Luo Xiangshan shook her head: "The newsboy and the little beggar both said that a woman paid them to spread the news, but each of them described it differently. The other party used a human skin mask, which made it difficult to find him."
Huo Tingchuan: "Then don't waste manpower on this. It won't hurt us to know that Qi Yi is in Sangcheng."
Luo Xiangshan replied respectfully: "Yes."
When the two entered the Beita Hotel, they passed by a woman wearing a green cheongsam and sunglasses who was walking seductively.
Huo Tingchuan stopped and looked back.
Luo Xiangshan asked doubtfully: "Young Marshal, is there something wrong with that person?"
"fine."
Huo Tingchuan withdrew his gaze.
I've been so tired lately.
Everyone looks like her.
He asked the front desk for Gao Cen's address, then got the master key and went to the third floor.
inside the room.
An assistant cleared the tea on the table.
Another assistant looked at Gao Cen who was sitting on the sofa and said worriedly, "Boss, the only woman with the surname Xia who can be named is Xia Pingwan. That woman's background is unknown, and I don't think we can trust what she says."
Gao Cen shook his wine glass and smiled disapprovingly.
"You can't accomplish anything great if you are timid. Besides, the news she told is true, why do we need to know who she is?"
He adheres to the principle of "profit first" in doing things.
Anyone can cooperate as long as it is beneficial to him.
Just now.
The door opened with a click.
The two assistants hurriedly took out their pistols and aimed at the door.
When they saw it was Huo Tingchuan, they hesitated.
Gao Cen smiled and stood up from the sofa: "Marshal Huo is indeed well-informed. I just arrived this morning, and you found my whereabouts so quickly."
Huo Tingchuan walked over with a serious expression.
He said coldly: "No need to compliment me, I don't like to hear that. Gao Cen, I came here to discuss a business with you."
His eyes fell on the two assistants.
Gao Cen understood what he meant and asked his assistant to leave the room.
After the door was closed, Gao Cen poured a cup of tea himself and said with a smile, "I wonder what kind of cooperation Marshal Huo wants to discuss?"
"arsenal."
……
at the same time.
In front of the newsstand not far from the North Tower Hotel.
The little newsboy took the silver dollar, patted his chest with a smile and said confidently.
"Don't worry, leave it to me."
Song Yuesheng nodded slightly and watched the little newspaper boy run away happily.
She looked at the towering North Tower Hotel to the west and pushed her sunglasses down on her nose.
well.
Huo Tingchuan has arrived.
It was worth it that she waited for a long time at the gate of Wanjun District until the guard changed shifts.
Play chess on the other half of the board late at night.
Song Yuesheng found a tailor shop and changed her clothes back to her original ones.
Before returning to the newspaper office, she went to Haina Photo Studio first.
As a result, I saw some unfamiliar people changing the sign of a photo studio.
The sign in the glass window is gone too.
By chatting and shopping with nearby merchants, Song Yuesheng learned that Xia's father came here with a group of people an hour ago.
He said that Fang Xinrou signed a contract to transfer the shop, and Haina Photo Studio changed hands from then on.
Fang Xinrou neither resisted nor explained.
She and Yun Duo only took some photos when they left.
Song Yuesheng sighed.
In this matter, she implicated Ms. Fang and Yun Duo.
Until things are resolved, opening a new photo studio will suffer the same fate.
Song Yuesheng returned to the newspaper office, and before she had even warmed up her chair, Zhang Yitong and Han Meihua took turns telling her that Qi Yi had come to her to collect a debt at around 1:00 p.m.
The two of them were full of worry in their words.
But Song Yuesheng acted confused and doubtful, which made the two people feel that they were overthinking, and they stopped persuading him with words like "be careful in the future".
Late at night, 10pm.
In the reception room of Yun Yinju.
Gao Cen stood up and said respectfully, "I'm really sorry, Mr. Qi. The arsenal involves a wide range of areas, and problems may arise in any link, allowing others to take advantage of loopholes. I really can't reach a cooperation with you."
He couldn't help but worry about himself.
If Huo Tingchuan hadn't offered him a generous reward, he really didn't want to refuse to cooperate with Qi Yi.
But then again, if he hadn't reached a cooperation with Huo Tingchuan, he probably wouldn't have been able to leave the North Tower Hotel.
Ugh.
Dealing with big shots is a real chore.
Qi Yi put down his crossed legs and walked towards Gao Cen step by step.
He put his hands on Gao Cen's shoulders, squeezing his face.
Followed by.
Qi Yi's cold voice sounded.
"Do you find it difficult, or are you being robbed? Gao Cen, I'll give you a chance to say it again."
"me……"
The pain in his shoulder and the pressure from Qi Yi made Gao Cen unable to utter a complete sentence.
Qi Yi sighed: "I gave you a chance, but you didn't seize it."
Gao Cen saw the pistol spinning flexibly in Qi Yi's hand, and then pressed against his temple.
He was scared.
He said in a trembling voice: "Qi, Qi Yi, you can't kill me. If you kill me, the Jin Kingdom will not let you go, let alone the entire Yizhou."
Qi Yi suddenly laughed.
He looked at Gao Cen pitifully: "You don't have a clear understanding of yourself. Gao Cen, you are also a Kang people. In the eyes of the Jin people, you are no different from a dog wagging its tail to beg for mercy. But..."
"Killing you will indeed cause a lot of trouble."
"If I don't kill you, I won't be able to keep my temper."
As Qi Yi spoke, he moved the gun closer to Gao Cen's mouth.
boom!
The bullet penetrated the soft flesh near Gao Cen's mouth, flew out, and finally hit the chair.
Blood spurted out instantly.
Gao Cen rolled on the ground covering his mouth in pain.
Yu Hanhai closed his eyes unable to bear it.
Old Qi really learned all the tricks of the Qi family.
"Throw him out, throw him far away."
"Yes."
Just now.
A rush of footsteps was getting closer and closer.
Then, there was a rapid and forceful knock on the door.
"Mr. Qi, something bad has happened! A fire broke out in Warehouse No. 2 of Fumen Hospital, causing an explosion!"
