Chapter 59 World Hotel Security Industry Leaders

"What? That damned robber wants to hold a birthday party and asks us to provide them with cakes. Why doesn't he need a live band! Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Bai Longdu spat all over the place.

Major Vicente persuaded: "But they still have hostages in their hands. This kind of request does not involve other things. I think it can be satisfied, otherwise public opinion will prevail."

Bai Longdu stared at him with dead fish eyes, and after a while he was discouraged and said: "Go and make arrangements, make some more and send them over, at least give the hostages some food, God knows if they will starve to death."

Hearing that the Consul had compromised, Vicente breathed a sigh of relief, that's right, it's not an excessive request, as long as the hostage crisis can be resolved, everything is worth it.

"Damn it, I will hang that masked man on the tower of Beiping when they catch them without a fight. Major, do you think what he said about surrendering is true?"

Mr. Brondo was very unhappy. The Ambassador asked him to find out the relationship between the Northeast Republican Army and the Irish Republican Army. I hope the masked man can give him a satisfactory answer.

Major Vicente couldn't help laughing at Mr. Consul, he was honest with the robbers, they killed so many Japanese, they would commit suicide if they were captured without a fight, they wouldn't be that stupid.

But on the surface, Major Vicente said with certainty: "Of course, Mr. Consul. They have publicly promised that if they break their promises, they will be ridiculed by the whole world."

Barondo: "Well, I think so too, shall we send someone in at night?"

Major Vicente thought about it: "Okay, sir, let me go and see what the hell those robbers are doing, and whether they really installed dangerous goods."

Bai Longdu was very satisfied: "I really deserve to be an officer of the British Empire, loyalty and honor."

If the British are watching with cold eyes, then the Japanese are putting a roasting basket on their shoulders—brain (annoyed) anger. If the robbers do this, the whole world will know the good things the Kwantung Army has done.

After receiving the telegram from the Kwantung Army Headquarters, Consul Toyama Nakaji called Baga, asking him to rescue Zhang Jingyao as soon as possible. As for Hase Ryosuke, it depends on the situation.

These red deer have not forgotten their stupid plan until now. If they are really that powerful, they might as well just attack Peiping directly.

Moreover, Toyama Nakaji also received a telegram from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, asking him to rescue Ryosuke Hase with all his strength. As a consul, he must of course obey the order of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Toyama Nakaji threw the Kwantung Army's telegram into the trash can.

Hirosuke Komura, the leader of the bare squad, asked humbly: "Mr. Consul, I don't know how the Kwantung Army arranged it. Will they send someone over? Do we need to arrange someone to go to that dinner?"

Toyama Nakaji didn't even look at him: "You go back, there will be additional soldiers coming after the matter is over, as for the dinner, let them go."

It wasn't just the Japanese who were in a hurry. At this time, Deputy Director Zheng was furious at Chen Gongshu: "Zuo Zhong is crazy, are you crazy too? Why didn't you report such a big matter to me, I will shoot you."

"Virgin, I'm wronged. I didn't know that he wanted explosives and information for this purpose. If I knew, I wouldn't dare to give me eight guts." Chen Gongshu felt that he was too wronged.

Deputy Director Zheng pointed at him and was so angry that he couldn't speak. He knew that Beiping would not be peaceful, but Zuo Zhong dared to hold the entire Liuguo Hotel hostage, and the sky was about to collapse.

By the way, at the beginning, he was the one who forced Chen to let Zuo Chong come back. Whether this big blame would fall on him, the more Deputy Director Zheng thought about it, the more likely it was, and he had to find someone to share it.

"I don't care. I want to send a telegram to Dai Chunfeng. Zuo Zhong is his student, not mine. I can't take the blame for Dai Chunfeng for this matter, so hurry up and send a telegram."

Chen Gongshu went out to send a telegram with a sad face. I don't know if Dai Chunfeng ordered him to be shot. Zuo Zhong was the culprit, and he, Chen Gongshu, was the first accomplice.

After thinking about it, Chen Gongshu decided to hide Dai Chunfeng first and see if Zuo Zhong's action could be successful. As long as Zhang Jingyao was killed, at least the merits and demerits could be offset.

Chen Gongshu looked out the window and said to himself: "Brother Shenzhong, I can only help you here, no, I have to send someone to look at it tonight."

In addition to the attention of various forces in Beiping, people all over the world know that a robbery of the century broke out in the Liuguo Hotel in the Far East through the radio waves.

Different from the past, these robbers don't want money or life. They want to attract attention, which is very interesting. For a while, the sales of newspapers increased sharply.

The newspaper office desperately encourages its own reporters to interview the hostages. As long as they can do this, the position, salary, and female secretary are all negotiable.

Human beings make money and birds die for food. The reporters, who were already watching the excitement, put on their suits, combed their hair to look like adults, bought gifts, and waited for the evening banquet.

In the Liuguo Hotel, the mess has been restored, except for those conspicuous dangerous goods.The waiters and cooks volunteered to serve the dinner, not for money but to treat their Mr. Robber as equals.

After Zuo Zhong found out, he went to the waiters: "Gentlemen, ladies, thank you for your selfless help. I hope to see everyone at the dinner. If you are not present at the dinner, it will be meaningless."

The waiter and chef knew what the robbers meant. Although they were service personnel, they were also today's guests and could enjoy the dinner together. This made everyone sigh again for the kindness of the robbers.

"As for the wine, take out all the old wine in the wine cellar, and use the best cheese and ham. By the way, there are also vegetables. Let those useless guys outside send some in."

The chefs yelled loudly and directed the waiters. They wanted to present the most perfect birthday banquet. As for whether to save money for the hotel board of directors?To hell with those Grandets.

Accompanied by permission and the men in black, the hostages returned to their rooms, put on the most magnificent clothes and the most shining jewelry, and tonight would be the most memorable night of their lives.

Going to a dinner party organized by robbers, God, if I can get back home safely, there must be countless publishing houses and newspapers crying and begging them to tell all this.

What made people laugh and cry was that the people in black found a few more well-hidden guests from the hotel. When they heard what the old hostage said, they couldn't believe there was such a thing as a birthday party.

It wasn't until the new hostage was invited to the lobby and saw the enthusiastic preparation scene that they believed it, and at the same time regretted it endlessly, forget it if they didn't get caught, it would be better to come out earlier if they knew they would be caught, at least they wouldn't be hungry.

There were also some hostages who knew musical instruments and spontaneously formed a small band. In the evening they would perform for the dinner and dance. Zuo Zhong went to listen to it. It was unprofessional but passable.

Looking at the vibrant restaurant, Zuo Zhong was satisfied, this is life, food, wine, music, dance, and... by the way, I still need to find some cigars.

At this time, the onlookers outside the Liuguo Hotel exclaimed in surprise. Cars of fresh vegetables and fruits were placed at the door, and the people in black immediately moved in after checking.

"These are apples from Yantai, they are not cheap. You say that these foreigners have become meat tickets, why are they so big-hearted." A Chinese commoner was almost drooling.

"Do you want to eat? If you want to eat, you go in. Then you can eat as much as you want."

"Yeah, why don't you go in, go in, see the world and tell us about it."

A bunch of idlers were booing nearby, they really gained knowledge, the bandits kidnapped people without asking for money, and even organized a birthday for the meat ticket, it's really weird.

What happened next shocked them even more. A group of people cleaned up all the car wreckage outside the Liuguo Hotel, washed the blood on the ground with basins of clean water, and repaired the green plants at the door and repaired the ground. .

After a while, the Liuguo Hotel returned to its former style. Only the glass shattered by the shock wave proved that it was a hotel being held hostage.

As night fell, the street lights in the embassy area slowly lit up, like white jade, which set off the Liuguo Hotel more beautifully, and amazed the common people watching the excitement.

Usually they can't come in here, it's thanks to the robbers. The consulates of various countries also think that the robbers should pay attention, so they should pay enough attention and order the military police to let them go.

Besides, with so many people here, the robbers' methods would not be so brutal. Who knows how many explosives were hidden in the embassy area, if it's not [-], it's just in case.

At six o'clock sharp, a huge cake tower and many small cakes were delivered to the door. The men in black checked them carefully and carried them in. They even gave some tips to the pastry shop guy, which was very polite.

There are more and more people outside the Liuguo Hotel, Beiping City is not short of idlers watching the excitement, and these people even formed a small market, filled with the aroma of various snacks and shouting.

The gendarmes and patrols from all over the world turned a blind eye, the big shots could go back to eat, and the reporters went to the damn robber's dinner party, leaving them with nothing to eat or drink, and drove away the street vendors what they would eat.

At 45:[-], there was a melodious symphony in the Liuguo Hotel, and several men in black stood at the door with submachine guns in their hands, welcoming the reporters who came to the banquet.

Although Zuo Zhong has plans to do something, he will not take security work lightly. Tonight, both male and female journalists must undergo security checks to prevent people with ulterior motives from entering.

Fortunately, He Yijun was brought along, otherwise the security check for female journalists would be really difficult. Who knows if those reporters would make up a news about a pervert masked robber trying to harass a female reporter.

At this time, Zuo Zhong had a whim, if he did it like this, would it indirectly improve the security level of the world's hotel industry, at least he would conduct security checks in the future.

In fact, this is the case. Now hotels in several major cities in the world have begun to conduct security checks. The weapons carried by guests can be stored, but they must not be brought into the hotel.

There are a lot of lunatics in this world, if a few more masked people come and kill or injure some important figures, they practitioners in the hotel industry should just commit suicide, at least quickly.

The reporters also slowly arrived, entering the arena one by one with their business cards. The men in black didn't care about the cameras they were carrying except for checking for dangerous goods.

It was a worthwhile trip, the reporters looked at each other, and they were determined.
