"Huh?! Why?! What does the murder here have to do with us?! Why can't we leave? "
"You can't do this. If you suspect that someone is a suspect, bring a court search warrant. If not, please get out of the way. We don't want to stay here anymore. "
"Who the f * ck wants to stay in a place where a murder happened …"
The louder shouts, the louder shouts, and the quieter shouts, too, murmurs.
The buzzing sound was endless, as if a hornet's nest had been poked.
In fact, it was indeed illegal for the hotel to not allow the guests in the other rooms to enter freely just because a murder had occurred in one room on this floor.
These guests were not at the scene of the crime, and the hotel management did not have any evidence to prove that the guests in the other rooms were related to the murder.
The people who could stay in the luxurious suites of the Dunhill Hotel were not ordinary people.
It didn't take long for them to pick up their phones and call their lawyers, relatives, and friends.
Although it was early in the morning on the first day of the New Year, many people had not slept because the Spring Festival Gala had just ended.
Therefore, a lawyer drove over very quickly.
Just as the guests were quarreling with the hotel management, Lu Jin calmly logged into the hotel's intranet and erased all traces of his check-in.
From the registration records in the lobby to his credit card, the surveillance footage in the lobby, and the surveillance footage in the corridor on this floor, he had deleted all traces of his presence.
Perhaps the attendant who had checked him in in the lobby still vaguely remembered such a person, but when the place became a mess later, it would be strange if that person would remember an ordinary person like him.
The only thing that was difficult to deal with was the access card in his hand.
If the hotel management sorted out all the access cards on this floor, they would find that the access card for his room had been lost.
And this room happened to be next to Ishihara Baisan's room.
Once it was investigated, the person who registered for him might think of him.
Lu Jin pondered for a moment, wondering if he should hypnotize the attendant in the lobby when he returned the room to the door.
At that moment, an ear-piercing fire alarm suddenly rang out from outside!
Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!
The sharp sound of the fire alarm rang through the entire corridor.
The expressions of the guests who were confronting the hotel management changed drastically.
"There's a fire!"
"There's a fire!"
"Run!"
When the fire alarm went off, the hotel management had no reason to stop the guests from leaving.
In fact, even if the police came, they could only run down together.
The hotel management staff were the first to turn around and run down the stairs.
The rest of the guests also ran toward the staircase.
Because the elevator would automatically shut down when there was a fire alarm, no one ran to the elevator.
At this moment, Lu Jin dashed out of the room and ran down behind these people.
Just as he reached the middle floor, the firefighters finally came up.
One of the big firefighters in a yellow firefighter uniform rushed over and bumped into Lu Jin before continuing to run up.
Lu Jin hurriedly dodged, but he was still knocked against the railing of the stairs.
However, the man did not seem to have much strength. His back hit the railing, but it did not hurt at all.
Lu Jin was not in the mood to argue with this person. He thought that it was understandable that the other person was going to put out the fire. He just needed to hurry home.
When he finally ran downstairs, Lu Jin thought of his card and looked around for the attendant who had registered him. He tried to hypnotize him, but when he touched his pocket, the card was gone!
Lu Jin's expression changed, and he quickly looked around.
He was surrounded by guests who had just come down from upstairs. All of them were disheveled, and many of them were still wrapped in hotel nightgowns and bathrobes.
It was obvious that there was no time to change.
Although there weren't many people on their floor, there were still many guests in the entire building.
For a building like this, if a fire broke out on one floor, the people on all floors would be evacuated.
Lu Jin squeezed through the crowd and calmly looked for the attendant who had registered him.
When the fire alarm went off, the hotel's attendants also had their own evacuation mission. At this moment, they were all working in an orderly manner according to the plan. Lu Jin did not find the person he was looking for.
The group of firefighters who had rushed upstairs were the first to rush directly to the floor where the murder had occurred.
The fire alarm records showed that it had first sounded from that floor, so the source of the fire should be there.
The tallest firefighter, the one who had bumped into Lu Jin, was the first to rush into Ishihara Baisan's room.
He wore a fire mask and quickly looked around. Then, he entered Ishihara Baisan's bedroom and found that it was pitch black.
He shone a high-intensity flashlight and found two things next to his body that were out of place in the surroundings.
A small test tube and a few pieces of yellowed paper that looked like they had been torn out of a notebook.
The man didn't think too much about it. He quickly walked over and quickly picked up the two things and stuffed them into his thick firefighting suit.
It was also because of the fire alarm that the power in the building had been suspended. Only the backup power in the corridor was still running.
The man retreated from the pitch-black room and entered the suite next door where Lu Jin had just been. He casually overturned the tables, chairs, and sofa. It looked like someone had run out of the room in a panic, causing a chaotic scene.
He then used the fire extinguisher to spray the room, erasing all the fingerprints and footprints that Lu Jin might have left behind.
After coming out of Lu Jin's room, he went to the other rooms with the fire extinguisher and did the same thing. Then, he quickly retreated.
The whole operation took less than five minutes. The other firefighters were still looking for possible sources of fire in the various rooms, but he had already retreated.
He found a remote utility room, took out a folded duffel bag, and opened it. He took off his firefighting suit and stuffed it into it. Then, he carried the duffel bag and pretended to be a guest. He quickly rushed down the fire escape.
When he arrived at the lobby, it was crowded. He quickly walked to the lobby where the registration office was located.
The place was also crowded. The hotel staff were not there to check in.
He stood at the place where the staff checked in. While no one was paying attention, he threw the key card into the drawer where the key card was kept.
At the entrance of the hotel, the sound of police cars could be heard.
The police finally arrived late.
Just as a large group of police rushed in, a few firefighters rushed down from upstairs.
"It's okay, it's okay! There's a problem with the fire alarm. There's no fire, there's no fire! "
"It's a false alarm! It's a false alarm! "
"For safety's sake, everyone wait for another half an hour. It won't be too late for everyone to go upstairs after we've eliminated the fire alarm in the entire building."
The firefighters told everyone about the situation upstairs, and many people breathed a sigh of relief.
Lu Jin was also paying attention to the situation in the crowd.
When he heard that it wasn't a real fire alarm, he raised an eyebrow and felt that it was a little strange.
Just as he was about to look for the hotel check-in attendant, a tall man walked over and whispered to him, "Sir, the car you asked for is here."
Lu Jin immediately became alert when he heard the voice.
It was the voice of the KGB, Peter Huo Shaoheng!
Looking at this person's figure, he was clearly the firefighter who had bumped into him just now!
Lu Jin finally understood everything.
The KGB had stolen the key card that he had lost, hadn't it?
This person was Huo Shaoheng.
He grabbed Lu Jin's arm and whispered, "The key card has been returned. Let's go. The car is outside."
Lu Jin heaved a sigh of relief.
He then caught a glimpse of the hotel management walking into the lobby and beginning to communicate with the police. He quickly turned around and left with Huo Shaoheng.
Because of the fire alarm just now, a large number of guests had also run out of the building.
At this time, the main entrance of the hotel was not restricting people from entering and leaving.
He followed Huo Shaoheng out of the lobby quickly and saw that Huo Shaoheng was carrying a travel bag in his hand.
When they walked near the fire truck, Huo Shaoheng took out the firefighting suit from the travel bag and threw it into the back of the fire truck when no one was around.
There were a lot of firefighting equipment piled up in a mess, including some scattered firefighting suits.
Huo Shaoheng threw the firefighting suit from the travel bag into the middle of the pile of firefighting suits. No one could tell that a firefighting suit had just been lost here..
Lu Jin noticed that Huo Shaoheng had his back to the surveillance cameras when he did these things.
"… You don't have to be so careful, do you? There's a fire alarm here, and the power has been cut off. "Lu Jin pointed at the surveillance cameras.
Huo Shaoheng said calmly, "… Our surveillance cameras in the Soviet Union usually have backup power. Of course, the surveillance cameras in this hotel don't have backup power. But it's better to be safe than sorry. It's good that everything's fine. "
Lu Jin pursed his lips and thought to himself, so what if he was photographed?
With his methods, wouldn't it be a piece of cake for him to hack in and delete it?
However, he had to admit that Peter's caution was indeed a sign of professionalism.
He stopped arguing and obediently followed Huo Shaoheng through the crowd on the lawn of the hotel building. He walked out of the door and across the street.
There was also a group of people on the opposite side of the road. Some had rushed over to watch the show, while others had been called over by lawyers and the relatives and friends of the guests. There were also some hotel guests who had run to the opposite side of the hotel because they were worried that the fire would spread.
After Huo Shaoheng and Lu Jin left the hotel, they did not walk very fast. Instead, they joined the group of people who were watching the show from the opposite side of the road.
Inconspicuously they crept back among the crowd, and when they had reached the furthest point, they looked up at the Dunhill for a moment, and then slowly moved away from the spot.
The two of them walked to the corner of the street. Huo Shaoheng remotely opened a car and raised his chin at Lu Jin.
Without saying a word, Lu Jin got into the passenger seat of the car.
Huo Shaoheng got into the driver's seat, stepped on the accelerator, and quickly drove away from the place.
They were not the only car that had left the hotel, so it was not particularly eye-catching.
Lu Jin was full of praise for Huo Shaoheng's actions, but he asked in confusion, "… How did you know I was here? I was sure that no one was following me. "
Huo Shaoheng did not answer him. Instead, he asked coldly, "Ishihara Baisan is dead?"
Lu Jin nodded and said with a smile, "Guess how he died?"
"Why did you want him to die?" Huo Shaoheng asked again, his heart a little heavy.
