Standalone Tokyo

Chapter 214: Red Heart J Hotel
Minako Nakazaki sat by the floor-to-ceiling glass window, looking down at the people and cars coming and going outside. She gracefully picked up the coffee cup and took a sip.

When she put the cup down, a waitress in a small suit and holding a white towel came over and placed a small plate of snacks next to Minako Nakazaki with an expressionless face.

"Ms. Nakazaki, is there anything else you need?"

"Not yet."

Minako Nakazaki nodded to her, and the latter took a few steps back, standing silently without hindering the former, waiting for the next instruction.

Minako Nakazaki did not resist or object to such personal service. If it were an ordinary waiter, she would definitely not be used to the latter standing behind her, but here it was possible.

Because this cafe, even this hotel building, and all the people working in it, are members of the poker organization.

The Red Heart J Hotel is a hotel base that reopened one month after the poker organization took over. It is the previously agreed-upon Poetry Hotel, located in Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo. It is a 20-story hotel building with an underground parking lot.

The hotel is not tall, but it has cafes, massage centers, Western and Chinese restaurants, game halls and other shops. It has everything for eating, drinking and having fun. Basically, as long as you bring your bag in and have enough money, you can stay there for ten or eight days without going out.

In addition, the most important thing is that the Red Heart J Hotel is very safe.

The J Hotel is Fujiwara Masato's first real industry that can be put in the sun. It is also a systematic hotel base. As long as it is open, it will bring in US dollars. He attaches great importance to the J Hotel.

He arranged more than fifty security personnel for this building, all of whom were professional armed bodyguards.

If it were in the past, in order to save money, Fujiwara Masato would definitely arrange some militia cannon fodder to fill the numbers, but he is not short of money now, so there is no need to save this little money. If necessary, all the rangers and sea lion commandos will do. The latter is not used just because it is not suitable.

There is a huge difference in temperament between armed bodyguards and professional special forces. When bodyguards wear suits or security uniforms, outsiders will think they are very professional security personnel, while the latter will make the guests feel uncomfortable even if they wear ordinary clothes.

In addition to security, roles such as the hotel's doormen and waitresses can be replaced by NPCs. Fujiwara Masato also uses NPCs, but positions such as those in the kitchen can only be replaced by outsiders.

However, for safety reasons, these chefs are all foreigners. Fujiwara Masato paid them high salaries and the only requirement for them was not to leave the hotel at will. The hotel provided them with food, clothing, housing and transportation, and even paid for erotic services once a week.

An ordinary hotel kitchen does not require such management, but the Red Jack Hotel does. As a semi-public base of a poker organization, there must be many people keeping an eye on it.

Whether for safety or to maintain confidentiality, internal management must be strict.

In addition, Fujiwara Masato also spent a lot of experience points to upgrade the hotel NPC. The level is not high, about level two to three, so that the NPC can get rid of the blank state.

Although their reactions are still a bit rigid, they are much better than the first-level NPCs. They can be used as qualified workers and there will be no flaws when talking to people. At most, they give people the impression that they are generally indifferent and unkind.

In Fujiwara Masato's overall plan, the Red Heart J Hotel is still open to the public and welcomes ordinary people to stay in. However, its hotel room prices are generally two to ten times more expensive than those of five-star hotels outside, which is the kind that ordinary people will stay away from at first sight.

Fujiwara Masato is not short of money now, and he welcomes guests from outside to come in and spend money, but he does not want ordinary people to come and join in the fun, as this may cause accidental injuries.

No matter who they are, as long as they are not hostile to the Poker Organization, the security personnel will ensure their safety when they come in and check in, and will not let any outsiders come in and do anything messy to them. In addition to the obvious accommodation services, on the two floors of the hotel that require invitation cards to enter, there are also firearms, bulletproof vests, intelligence transactions, assassinations and security services.

Fujiwara Masato likes the Continental Hotel, but he does not intend to completely imitate the secret services of the Red Heart J Hotel. He only plans to open it to the allies and friends of the poker organization. Not all forces can come in, not even neutrals.

After so much trouble, the poker organization now has two or three friends. Although it is a little small, it is still relatively reliable and can help.

Fujiwara Masato also thought about whether to make something like gold coins, but after thinking about it seriously, he canceled this bad idea.

How to say it, it's unrealistic. After all, the poker cards under his command are not the mainland hotel in the movie. They are not that awesome. If the forces that dislike poker cards really want to imitate them, Fujiwara Masato cannot stop them and may not be able to tell the difference.

Just like Swiss mechanical watches, apart from the brand, they have long been imitated in a certain Eastern country, and are often exposed by veteran watchmakers in Europe and the United States because the imitations are better than the originals.

Therefore, Fujiwara no Masato really did not dare to create any special currency. Creating one would only bring trouble to himself, so why bother?

Things should be done step by step, and meals should be eaten bite by bite. Some things should be done hurriedly, while some things can be done fastest when done steadily.

Minako Nakazaki didn't think too much about the boss's overall plan. It was not her turn to have the final say in this matter. She was just immersed in her own joy. She worked hard to join the poker game just for this moment, when she could decide and manipulate many people to serve her.

For this reason, Minako Nakazaki rarely goes to her own Peach Blossom Spring nightclub. It is too small and can no longer accommodate her ambitions and desires.

The backbone members under Minako Nakazaki also came to the massage parlor in the Red Heart J Hotel to work, leaving only a small leader to continue to be responsible for collecting intelligence in Taohuayuan.

"Miss."

Hearing the call, Minako Nakazaki turned her head to look to the side and saw a beautiful woman in kimono half-kneeling on the ground. She kowtowed to her and reported the news in a low voice.

"I'm very sorry to bother you, but there's something I can't make up my mind about, and I have to report to you."

The person kneeling on the ground is Oda Rie.

"who."

"A woman who claims to be Uehara Rue moved in with her people. A group of foreigners also followed in and seemed to be pestering her. I found out that her identity was not simple, so I came here to inform you."

"Huh?" Minako Nakazaki widened her eyes.

She didn't know who Uehara Rui was, but Minako Nakazaki was very familiar with the surname Uehara.
