Wine is a good thing. It can paralyze nerves and make brain cells die irreversibly. Looking at many patients with Alzheimer''s disease, most of them have the habit of daily drinking.
Although this thing is harmful, many people still indulge in it. In fact, it''s not a sad thing to live in memory when they are old. At least in that memory, everyone is in full bloom, not old.
The owner of the hotel was flushed and drinking. Under the influence of wine and meat, he took off his coat, put it on his shoulder and talked about the murder that should not have been mentioned.
In fact, it''s not a big thing. For people living in tenell City, seeing dead people is like seeing cats and dogs falling dead on the side of the road. In the early years, established tycoons were fighting by force, and gangs were fighting by force. Which one was not killed, with blood flowing into a river and broken limbs scattered on the ground?
Sometimes there are not enough people at the police station, or the residents on the roadside take the initiative to wash away the blood on the ground with buckets. Seeing a dead man is like looking at the front meat on a chopping board for the boss of the hotel business.
In his narration, a dusty past for several years surfaced again.
"It was a time when the weather was not too hot. At that time, I forgot whether it was spring or winter. In short, the weather was not too hot..." he took another sip of the glass, and the young people around him soon poured it for him. He looked at the slightly turbid wine in the glass happily. He was very comfortable. He was full of desire to talk. If he didn''t say anything, He suspected that he would go crazy.
"At that time, there were four guests in my hotel, three men and one woman. They were a group, but everyone opened a separate room."
"You know, the old terner..." his shoulder shook and sneered, "it''s like a cesspool. There''s no industry here. People are crazy climbing up to squeeze others, even..."
When he said this, he stopped, obviously thinking of something and directly cut off the conversation, "I can remember those people, but also because they are very strange. They can rent two or three rooms, but they want everyone to rent one, so I remember it very clearly. These people are not short of money."
"They lived for many days. I don''t think they are good people. Everyone is gloomy. Later, they didn''t know where to borrow a car and went around."
"Later, one night, the woman among the four had an accident..." the owner of the tavern seemed to be remembering something. After a long time, he shook his head to clean the wine in the cup and sighed, "it''s very sad. There are many injuries on his body. Now I''ve abandoned that room and now it''s changed into a storage room..."
The two young men looked at each other, and one of them asked, "what about the murderer? Have you caught him? I really don''t know what kind of person can be cruel to women."
The hotel owner ate some meat and continued the wine. "I didn''t catch it. I don''t know what happened later."
"The guests in the hotel must have been frightened when such a big thing happened. Did any of them check out? Boss, you lost a lot.", this sentence is very interesting. I want to ask more detailed content.
The hotel owner lowered his head and kicked the ground under his feet. When he looked up again, he looked at the busy street on the side of the road, "I forgot."
The two young people didn''t ask any more and began to eat meat and drink. Soon, the two pots of meat and a bottle of wine on the table were destroyed by the three of them. The two young people patted their hips and went back to bed. The owner of the hotel took a handful of change and staggered his children to watch the store for him and walked towards a small bar nearby.
The young man standing behind the curtain on the third floor took it back from the back of the hotel owner who disappeared at the entrance of the alley. The original instruction given to them by their superiors was to lurk down and build appropriate social relations. For the time being, they should not investigate the assassination of Colonel Anna.
But just last month, news came from the imperial capital, asking them to restart the investigation into the assassination of Colonel Anna. The object of the two people''s investigation was the register of the small hotel.
According to the evidence they had collected before, there was more than one person in the room on the night when Colonel Anna was assassinated. With the strength of the colonel, it was difficult for even a professionally trained man to win.
This woman is characterized by ruthlessness. She has been dead for several years. There are still legends about her in the rose knights, including the legend that she removed one of her ribs as a dagger to stab a mission target, which has been threatening all the newcomers.
It was such a cruel and cruel woman who died quietly in this small hotel. What''s more frightening is that she was investigating the clue of blood dawn at that time. It is likely that she was killed in this hotel by the members of blood dawn.
After mennon''s death, the Empire completely lost the opportunity to know the whereabouts of some of the main characters in the bloody dawn. Mennon was killed by Du Lin before he had time to tell the news - if this is rumored, it is not believed, which also led to the suspension of the follow-up plan.
Now restart the plan, or because of the small differences between Turin and the Grand Prince, whether Turin is involved in the bloody dawn case or not, he grew up in tenell.
He didn''t join the bloody dawn, so it was obviously the best result. But if he joined, as long as he found the evidence, he didn''t need to worry that Turin would become the next margus. Those evidence could easily destroy him, no matter what means he had and who stood behind him.
With the idea that trying is not afraid of failure, the members of these organizations latent in terner city to cultivate social relations began to move again.
The idea of these two people is very simple. If the person who assassinated Colonel Anna came from outside, someone must have seen them at that time.
You know, at that time, cars were still luxury goods. No one could afford to buy or drive a car in this small city.
Even if they didn''t drive, they must have seen these people according to the traffic of tenell at that time, including the owner of the hotel.
According to the evidence collected in the early stage, the owner of the small and medium-sized hotel did not have any testimony in this regard. He said that he did not see anyone in and out of the hotel, so it is likely that the person who assassinated Colonel Anna lived in the hotel as a resident before the crime. After assassinating Colonel Anna, they did not escape, but returned to their room and were asked by the police to leave here.
Whether this is a feasible direction of detection or not, the two young people intend to try. Today, they have found out the tone of the hotel owner and registered the resident register. He still keeps it and put it in the room where Colonel Anna was killed.
Seeing that the hotel owner had gone to help the poor girls who couldn''t afford clothes, two young people opened the locked door with special keys with light hands and feet. They brought their own lighting equipment - candles.
In a box full of dust, I started my work tonight.
On the other hand, the owner of the hotel came to the small bar that he often patronized. Most of the bars in tener did not have liquor licenses to sell drinks. They were all operating illegally, but the nature of the city was very special. The police didn''t like to catch these people, and the Bureau of contraband investigation had completely counseled them.
Two consecutive directors have been arrested and jailed for dereliction of duty and job-related crimes. The Bureau of contraband investigation has a very poor wind evaluation, and no one wants them to do anything. Now tenar''s Bureau of contraband investigation has become a paradise for waste in kanles state.
The reason why it is a paradise is simply because although it is full of losers and waste in the struggle in kanles state, their law enforcement power still exists. In order not to get into trouble with each other, bars large and small will "confess" to the Bureau of contraband investigation every month.
From the cash payment of red fruits to some drinks and even beef, the agents who had no ambition and abandoned themselves began to be content with the status quo, which led to the special environment of tenell - the popularity of illegal bars.
In fact, there is another saying behind this, which is limited to the saying of some people wandering in the gray area. They often say that almost all tenar''s wine comes from Turin''s hand. No one can check Turin. If you don''t want to be unlucky, you''d better not touch these bars and these wines.
It''s hard to say whether this is the real reason for the formation of tener''s special environment, but it still makes some sense.
The hotel owner opened the door of the bar in the alley. There was nothing to hide. Everything was very generous. He also hung a neon sign with red high-heeled shoes and yellow wine glasses made of light-emitting tubes. It was particularly bright in the alley at night.
The tavern owner was already a little drunk. He forced himself to control his body. He walked to the bar a little unstable. The bartender immediately came over and said, "what do you want?"
He swallowed a mouthful of saliva, opened his mouth and smiled, revealing a mouth of uneven rhubarb teeth, emitting a disgusting smell, lying on the table and leaned over, "I want to sell information..."
The bartender looked at him. "You know, some jokes can be terrible."
"Why, do you think I''m joking now?", the tavern owner was a little angry. His voice became louder. Everyone around looked at him. The bartender frowned and tilted his head. Then he walked around the bar from one side and walked in through the door behind the bartender.
The guests next to the bar don''t care about this. Selling intelligence has always been the source of life for some of them, from one dollar and two dollars to tens, hundreds and thousands of intelligence. These large and small intelligence forms tenar''s low intelligence network, and some of them with certain economic value will flow to other places.
This is also the favorite job of lazy and idle people. It doesn''t need to consume energy. Just look for people everywhere to drink and chat. Maybe a message will sell for hundreds of thousands of yuan at any time.
Into the backstage of the hotel, the owner suddenly felt a little cold. This is a cold storage. There are some oxlegs, ham and other meat.
I don''t know how long he has accumulated on the ground. There are some bright red blood stains on the gray and black ice. The cold air makes him spray two hot gases from his nostrils every time he breathes, and his drunkenness is sober.
I hesitated to leave, but I still clenched my teeth and continued to walk forward until I passed through the cold storage and entered a warm room.
A guy with an old gas mask was sitting on a simple chair. There was a very shabby table in front of him. The strange guy looked up at the tavern owner. Through the closed glass, their eyes touched in the air, and the hotel owner moved away.
"The general content of the information doesn''t need to be very detailed, and then your quotation. If I''m interested, we can continue to talk. If I''m not interested, you can leave through the small door next to me. After you go out, you''ll be in another alley."
"It''s Fair..." the tavern owner said something inexplicably, perhaps timidly. "I don''t know if you know me. I''m the owner of the small hotel next to me. You know there was a murder case there before. Recently, someone began to be interested in that case. I think it should be able to sell some money."
The guy in charge of intelligence trading smiled, "why do you think this news is valuable? If I were you, I wouldn''t waste so much time on this matter. You can leave. Of course, if you have better news next time, you can come to me."
The tavern owner didn''t leave, but stood where he was. "Three hundred yuan, no, five, no, a thousand yuan, this news is a thousand yuan!"
The guy in the mask was stunned. He didn''t laugh at the tavern owner''s overestimation, nor did he ask people to drive out the drunk silly beep. Instead, he asked a key question, "why do you think this news is worth a thousand dollars?"
This is the ability that every person who makes a living by buying and selling intelligence must master. They can''t ensure that they have the most fair and correct evaluation of the value of each intelligence. In fact, the price of most intelligence comes from the bargaining behavior of both sides. When the owner of the tavern directly shouted a thousand dollars, the masked man realized that, There must be something he didn''t notice, so the hotel owner dared to shout out the price of 1000 yuan.
The hotel owner licked his lips, and then conquered the masked man in only two seconds. He sincerely took out a thousand dollars and stuffed them into the hotel owner''s hand.
The owner of the hotel said, "at the time of the crime, the police chief was called Mason, director Mason kesma!"
In fact, this is a very obvious high price news. The reason why the masked man didn''t expect is that he has too many things to deal with and can''t take good care of all aspects.
But his reaction was quick. When the hotel owner said director Mason kesma, the masked man suddenly woke up.
There are still people who have problems in the case before the secret investigation. It happened that Mason was the police chief at that time. It is likely that Mason himself and even Dooling were involved in the case.
Now Mason is the mayor of tenell, and Turin is the governor of ambillo. If the news is true, his guess is true. It can be said that he has made a lot of money for a thousand dollars.
He only needs to make a phone call and tell the news to the people related to Mason or Dooling without paying anything. In the future, he can walk horizontally in tenar. Everyone knows that this is the city of kesma''s family!
Later, Mason came back from the outside party. Tenar''s special geographical location was its death spot in the past, but it has become its advantage in the era of the rise of international trade.
The cost of land transportation has been gradually higher than that of sea transportation. With the improvement of power cabin technology for navigation, including the upgrading of catalysts, the Obsidian required to drive large cargo ships has not been reduced, but the cargo warehouses that can be dragged are increasing.
In principle, land transportation should begin to decline, but in inland areas where water transportation resources are scarce, the final transportation still depends on land transportation.
In this regard, tener is not short of resources. Several transnational railways pass through tener City, which also makes tener city prosper rapidly with the naked eye.
A large number of foreign-funded enterprises set up offices in tener and then expanded into companies. Some of them even planned to set up regional headquarters in the Empire. The arrival of these people accelerated the economic development and construction of tener city. Of course, Mason was a lucky guy.
The city''s economy is growing rapidly, and everyone living here can immediately feel it. Ten years ago, there was only a dozen yuan a month, but now there are at least more than 70 yuan a month. This is change, real change.
The people at the bottom don''t quite understand the economic construction problems at the national level. They only know that their salary is several times that of the past, and all this happened after Mason took office. Then Mason is a qualified mayor and a respected mayor.
With his surname and his lineage, he is a well deserved superstar in this city.
He took off his coat and sat on the sofa with a strong smell of wine. In fact, Mason is a good man. At least he won''t stay up at night like other men. No matter what kind of entertainment he has, he will come back to bed every night. No matter how late, he must come back.
His wife brought him a cup of bitter sobering soup, which is said to be a local method. It was boiled with burnt coffee beans and ten times of bitter chrysanthemum petals. A cup of dark brown water can make drunk people feel better.
Mason drank some, but the effect was not as good as at the beginning. He was still drunk and didn''t move, as if he was going to sleep.
At this time, the telephone rang in the hall. Mason, who was drunk and almost unconscious, had to answer the phone in person. Less than five seconds after he received the phone and said "it''s me", the whole person sou sat up straight, and began to secrete a lot of sweat all over. He couldn''t wipe it clean!
In such a moment, I was shocked, cold and woke up!
