Huo Shaoheng looked up in confusion. "… Nianzhi is missing? How could you not know? "
Yin Shixiong had immediately told Huo Shaoheng after receiving General Ji's call. He hadn't had time to investigate the truth.
When Huo Shaoheng said this, Yin Shixiong and Zhao Liangze looked at each other. They both remembered that Gu Nianzhi's security guards were from the Special Operations Forces.
Indeed, if Gu Nianzhi had really gone missing, they would be the first to know.
However, Speaker Long had asked General Ji to deploy the Special Forces, so it didn't seem fake.
Yin Shixiong immediately said, "General Ji's call is real, but we haven't contacted the people around Nianzhi yet."
"Then hurry up and contact them." Huo Shaoheng's voice became stern.
After the incident of Nianzhi being kidnapped to the other world more than a year ago, Huo Shaoheng actually didn't want to hear the word "missing" anymore.
However, he was a calm person and had a big heart. No matter how anxious he was, he remained calm on the surface, as if nothing could stump him.
As a high-ranking person, this kind of attitude was very important. It could stabilize the morale of the army.
Yin Shixiong and Zhao Liangze immediately used different methods to contact the people around Gu Nianzhi.
Soon, the person on the other end of the line picked up and asked them what was the matter.
Yin Shixiong quickly asked, "Where are you? Is Miss Gu with you? "
The person who answered the phone was by the door of a reception room in the Sheraton Hotel.
The door of the reception room was tightly shut and decorated with gold and jade. It was gorgeous to the point of being cumbersome. It was the standard 17th-century baroque style.
Because the roof was relatively high, it didn't seem oppressive.
Even the wallpaper was really gilded with dark gold stripes, and the chandelier on the ceiling was like a suspended Christmas tree. However, the decorations were all like real gold and silver, full of texture.
The murals on the surrounding walls and ceilings were all in a medieval religious style. Every outline of the furniture and seats was full of carved details. It was a feast for the eyes.
Gu Nianzhi sat in the reception room and felt like she would go blind at any moment. Therefore, she tried her best to keep her gaze on the COO, Kevin, opposite her. She didn't want to be distracted by the luxurious decorations around her.
Her two assistants sat on her left and right, and four security guards stood behind her. There were also two security guards standing at the door of the small reception room with their hands behind their backs.
Kevin only had one assistant standing behind him, and it was a woman. It was completely different from Gu Nianzhi's extravagance.
The security guard who answered the call was one of the two people by the door. He looked at Gu Nianzhi, who was sitting opposite him, and replied in a low voice, "The Sheraton Hotel. Yes, just ahead. "
The small reception room was filled with beautiful background music. It was the famous Baroque composer Antonio Vivaldi's "The Four Seasons". Like the decoration of the reception room, it was full of the beauty of the details.
The rhythm of the music was fast, but because the volume was very low, it did not affect their conversation.
One of Gu Nianzhi's bodyguards was wearing a Bluetooth headset. He took a step back and covered his ears with his hands. "What's wrong?"
Yin Shixiong was stunned for a moment, then said, "Turn on the video call."
The man's glasses were like miniature cameras.
He adjusted his glasses and opened the video call to Gu Nianzhi.
Gu Nianzhi's image quickly appeared on Huo Shaoheng's office screen.
She sat calmly on the intricately decorated gold and black chair. Her posture was elegant, and her smile was bright like a queen.
Huo Shaoheng couldn't help but smile. "Ask him if he knows what happened at the Sheraton Hotel. Also, where is Speaker Long? "
Yin Shixiong nodded and immediately asked, "… The Sheraton Hotel is suspected of illegally setting off fireworks, and there was a gunfight. Do you know? Also, where is Speaker Long? Didn't he go to the Sheraton Christmas party with Nianzhi? "
The security personnel over there looked around in surprise.
Only then did he realize that the so-called window in the reception room was actually painted!
It looked like the stained glass in the luxurious medieval churches, but it was not real glass at all.
They could not see the situation outside at all from here.
And it looked like the room was also very soundproof.
If something really happened at the Sheraton Hotel as Yin Shixiong said, why couldn't they hear anything from here?
He was about to open the door when the assistant standing behind Kevin suddenly bent down and said something in his ear.
Kevin immediately stood up and said with a solemn expression, "Something happened at the hotel. I'll be back soon."
Gu Nianzhi still didn't know what was going on. She only nodded politely. "Please help yourself."
Just as Kevin stood up, Huo Shaoheng's expression suddenly changed. His voice was especially low and hoarse. "… Get Nianzhi to leave now. She can't stay here anymore."
Yin Shixiong quickly informed the security guard.
The security guard saw this and immediately gestured to his colleagues.
The four security guards standing behind Gu Nianzhi suddenly sprang to life like statues.
The two men standing on the side quickly rushed to Gu Nianzhi's side and lifted her arms to support her as they rushed out the door.
The other two grabbed Gu Nianzhi's two assistants and ran out.
The two security guards at the door blocked Kevin and his female assistant's path and waited for Gu Nianzhi to catch up.
Kevin was still smiling, but his female assistant suddenly attacked. Her left elbow struck the chest of the security guard on the left and at the same time, her right leg kicked the lower body of the security guard on the right.
The security guards standing on the left and right side of the door instinctively stepped aside.
Kevin took advantage of this moment to open the heavy oak door of the reception room and quickly rushed out.
His female assistant glared at Gu Nianzhi's security guards. "What are you doing?! Something happened at the hotel. Our COO has to go deal with an emergency! You'll take responsibility if something happens?! "
Gu Nianzhi couldn't figure out what they were up to. She watched Kevin's back quickly disappear around the corner of the corridor and immediately said, "Let's talk outside."
As soon as she finished speaking, a muffled sound suddenly came from the complicated and luxurious reception room behind them. Two bursts of fire jumped from Gu Nianzhi's seat and Kevin's seat at the same time, followed by billowing black smoke. The fire was fierce and swift. If she was still sitting there, she would have been burned to a crisp by now …
Gu Nianzhi was extremely shocked. When they entered, the security guards had clearly checked the entire reception room to make sure there were no listening devices or remote-controlled bombs …
How did the remote-controlled bombs buried under her seat and Kevin's seat escape their detection?
Huo Shaoheng also saw the situation here through the instant video communication that hadn't been turned off. He didn't have time to investigate the truth at the moment, so he continued to order, "Meet up with Speaker Long. His side should be the safest."
No matter which force it was, no one dared to touch Speaker Long. Huo Shaoheng could see this very clearly.
Gu Nianzhi's six security guards and two assistants immediately formed layers of human walls to protect Gu Nianzhi in the middle. They walked towards the hall just now.
Only then did they hear the chaotic sounds in the hotel.
Some people were shouting loudly, while others were crying. The whistling of fireworks was mixed with the sound of gunfire. It was the sound of guns with silencers.
Gu Nianzhi's security guards were all wearing bulletproof vests. They cooperated closely and quickly escorted Gu Nianzhi to the hall.
Speaker Long was also anxiously looking around under the protection of a group of security guards.
He looked up to see Gu Nianzhi being surrounded by a group of people and sighed deeply. When she came to his side, he grabbed her arm and asked anxiously, "Nianzhi, are you okay?"
"I'm fine. Don't worry, Speaker Long." Gu Nianzhi was touched to see the look on Speaker Long's face.
This was someone who truly cared about her!
…
What happened at the Sheraton Hotel was tightly sealed, and not a single word was released on social media or the internet.
Police cars and fire trucks arrived, and the streets of the Imperial Capital became even more crowded.
At this moment, Song Jinning was driving towards the Sheraton Hotel. Lu Yuan, who had come to pick her up, was stuck on the road and couldn't move.
He turned on the GPS and looked at the situation in front of him. It turned out that a car accident had occurred and was being handled.
