Chapter 289 Ghost Story

Duanmu stepped forward and said, "Hello Mr. Mo Lin, I am Duanmu, and this is Cui Jian, my colleague."

Mo Lin nodded: "Thank you for your hard work."

Duanmu said: "No, who is this?"

Mo Lin understood and introduced: "Xue Mi, we met on the plane and had a great chat. Xue Mi once studied abroad at Hancheng University and is quite familiar with Hancheng, so I asked Miss Xue Mi to take me around Hancheng."

Duanmu hesitated and said, "Then..."

Mo Lin looked at Duanmu seriously: "We are traveling together, so maybe the hotel room we booked is not big enough?" Do I have to make it so clear?
Duanmu quickly said: "Of course not, please come this way." Damn it, plans cannot keep up with changes.

Looking at Xue Mi again, she kept smiling, and her hands unconsciously wrapped around Mo Lin's left hand, pressing Mo Lin's arm against her chest. As she walked towards the car step by step, she made Mo Lin so distracted that he didn't even bother to look at the surrounding environment.

Cui Jian was driving and glanced at Duanmu who was sitting in the passenger seat. Duanmu shook his head and said, “I don’t know why there was one more person.”

Maureen asked, "How long does it take to get to the hotel?"

Duanmu politely replied: "More than an hour, about 75 minutes."

Mo Lin nodded: "I'll take a break. If you need to stop the car, just do it and don't disturb me." Then he raised the partition.

After a while, the car body shook. Although the sound insulation was good, it couldn't block out Xue Mi's unbridled laughter. Cui Jian and Duanmu looked at each other, and Duanmu picked up the intercom: "Call Bai Xue."

Gui Yi replied: "Bai Xue received it."

Duanmu said: "Pull over and change the driver."

Gui Yi: “I understand.”

The two cars pulled over, Duanmu and Cui Jian got in the rear car and drove off first. Gui Yi followed them in his car, wondering: Is this some kind of anti-tracking trick? Why not change cars in the tunnel? Wouldn't it be more confusing if they drove a distance before changing cars? Is it really okay to just change the driver without changing the license plate?

Soon Gui Yi realized something was wrong and picked up the intercom and asked, "Call the princess."

Duanmu: "Princess received it."

Gui Yi: "What's going on in the back seat?"

Duanmu replied: "The dwarf and I are both single. We were worried that the dwarf would be attacked by sonic waves and wouldn't be able to concentrate on driving, so we changed cars. After all, women are beauties and men are beasts." The blonde beauty might make Duanmu and Cui Jian fantasize, but Mo Lin would never make Gui Yi fantasize. Plus, Gui Yi has a husband, so she knows all about these things and has a stronger resistance.

What can I say? Intern Gui Yi replied: “I understand.”

Duanmu and Cui Jian were discussing metaphysics. Duanmu asked, "Cui Jian, what is the probability that a greasy middle-aged uncle will meet a beautiful woman on a plane and she will be willing to serve as his tour guide?"

Cui Jian said: "The key is that this greasy uncle was in first class, which means that the beautiful lady was also in first class. How much should the uncle pay to get the beautiful lady to provide service?"

Cui Jian asked: "Will it be Qi Sha?"

Duanmu replied: "Impossible, I have never heard of Qi Sha using the beauty trap to sell herself. More importantly, Qi Sha will not expose her appearance to the public." Could it be that the Black Widow planted a spy next to Morin?
Cui Jian was suspicious. Could it be that besides Qi Sha, someone else had other plans for Mo Lin? This was a bit difficult. Not to mention Cui Jian and his team, even the two-headed dog didn't know the flight Mo Lin was taking until 3 hours before he boarded the plane. Mo Lin bought a business class ticket, but was upgraded to first class on the plane. Could it be that Xue Mi was also upgraded?
I don't know. I have to inform Shengzi about this emergency. If it really doesn't work, Cui Jian thinks he can do it himself. After all, he has Lawyer Mo and his previous record and reputation, so no one should suspect him. He didn't know that the housekeeper found out after detailed investigation that Cui Jian had never been suspected of being a traitor in his previous work. If he was suspected of being a traitor in the Seven Killings Bureau, his identity would be exposed. That's why the housekeeper asked Cui Jian not to participate in the assassination.

……

The car arrived at the Diamond Hotel. Duanmu led Mo Lin and the others to their rooms. Cui Jian and Gui Yi drove the car to the parking lot on the side. As bodyguards, they could not hand the car over to the waiter. Cui Jian noticed that although there was no surveillance in the parking lot, there were at least two security guards patrolling, and the security booth had two floors. There were security guards on duty on the second floor, and the field of vision covered the parking lot on the side of the hotel and part of the back and front of the hotel.

Cui Jian and Gui Yi took the elevator to the 23rd floor. There were two security guards standing in the elevator waiting area. As long as a guest opened the door and shouted, they would quickly go over to check. Is it a step backward to replace surveillance with manpower?

The hotel room is a luxury business suite, with two small guest rooms for the entourage to rest and a large living room. As for the small living room in the bedroom, the garden balcony, etc., they have little to do with the entourage.

Cui Jian connected with Yiyi: "VIP has arrived at the hotel, and the alarm system is being installed." It is mainly the alarm system on the door and window to prevent people from opening the door by various means. The principle is simple, opening and closing the door will trigger the alarm, but the alarm has a 10-second delay period. As long as the correct door opening password is entered within 10 seconds, the alarm can be avoided.

Gui Yi installed the alarm system with great agility. When she was standing on a chair and installing the window alarm, Cui Jian noticed that Mo Lin had been looking at Gui Yi's buttocks for a long time, and he didn't look away until Gui Yi turned around. Mo Lin looked away and found Cui Jian looking at him, so he followed his gaze and looked over. Cui Jian smiled and passed by.

This smile was not sarcastic or polite, but a response to Morin's behavior, not even to Morin. In the case of possible assassination, daring to attack the bodyguard is like teasing the waiter in a restaurant, and it is very likely to be attacked by the bodyguard and the waiter.

Duanmu came over and asked, "Mr. Mo Lin, if you have any travel plans, please inform us two hours in advance. It would be best if you could inform us one day in advance."

Mo Lin nodded: "I want to visit an old friend. The rest depends on Miss Xue Mi's arrangements."

Xue Mi sat on the armrest of the sofa, leaning against Mo Lin and looking at Duanmu: "I will notify you in advance."

Duanmu said: "If you need to order food, you can tell me directly."

"Okay, thank you." Xue Mi gave a friendly smile.

Duanmu walked to the side of the living room and looked at Cui Jian's laptop, which contained surveillance footage from the surveillance camera installed in front of the door. Duanmu said, "This damn place doesn't even have surveillance cameras in the elevator."

Cui Jiandao: "I heard that many celebrities, mostly public figures, stay at this hotel."

Duanmu: "Spend more money to buy privacy, rich people will not refuse. Guiyi, come here, four-hour shift, you start first. If the VIP wants to leave the room, you must call us."

Gui Yi nodded: "Okay." Duanmu called: "Yiyi, did you receive the surveillance footage?"

Yiyi replied: "Received, the hotel staff data has been connected. Anyone who enters the surveillance camera and stays there for more than 3 seconds will have their face captured by the surveillance camera and automatically compared with the staff data."

Li Ran was at the command center, turned the microphone and said, "Duanmu, are you really not considering hiring two groups of bodyguards to take turns on standby nearby?"

Duanmu replied: "The customer information of Diamond Hotel is not connected to the Internet and is highly confidential. I think the fewer people who know about it, the better."

Li Ran said, "The key is that the Diamond Hotel is the only hotel in Hancheng whose customer information is not connected to the Internet." The Diamond Hotel is like a strange flower in Hancheng. Li Ran didn't say that you left the airport openly, didn't change cars or license plates on the way, and if you really wanted to follow them, how could you not know the hotel where Mo Lin stayed?
Duanmu looked at Cui Jian: "What do you think?" He felt a little guilty.

Cui Jian said: "Then arrange two groups of bodyguards to take shifts." He also felt guilty.

Duanmu replied: "Okay, please arrange it, Manager Li."

Li Ran: "Okay, I'll send someone over in two hours and you'll take over."

……

A peaceful day passed, and at breakfast the next day, Mo Lin told Duanmu that he would go to Milin Restaurant to have dinner with an old friend at 7 o'clock tonight, and Duanmu would arrange the itinerary. So the news was immediately sent out by the two insiders.

The errand boy Gui Yi bought breakfast for the bodyguards. The three of them went to the small bedroom to eat breakfast. One person was supposed to stay in the living room, but Gui Yi invited them in. Gui Yi left the door ajar and whispered, "There's a suspicious vehicle nearby."

Duanmu looked at Cui Jian, fearing that Cui Jian might be suspicious, so he immediately contacted Yiyi, but was told that Yiyi was hospitalized last night due to diarrhea, and had no other problems except dehydration, and was currently being replaced by an entry-level technician. At Duanmu's request, the technician finally found the corresponding surveillance.

The surveillance camera captured the front part of the suspicious vehicle, but the distance was very far, and the pixels were very poor after zooming in. The passenger seat was vaguely visible as a man with short blond hair and sunglasses, and it was impossible to tell whether he was a man or a woman. The car was 300 meters away from the Diamond Hotel, at a corner, and was obviously not a surveillance position, but more like an action position.

Duanmu looked at Cui Jian: "What do you think?"

Cui Jian asked: "Go and have a look?"

Duanmu nodded: "Just take a look."

Gui Yi stayed behind, while Cui Jian and Duanmu went downstairs and walked towards the suspicious vehicle. Cui Jian had a cell phone in his pocket. Once he saw the driver, Shengzi, he would immediately call her and ask her to retreat. In comparison, Duanmu was much calmer. The two approached the vehicle, and Duanmu asked Cui Jian to stay behind to cover him while he walked forward. Cui Jian was relieved when he saw that the driver was an Asian man.

The suspicious vehicle showed no signs of guilt, so Duanmu easily knocked on the passenger window, borrowed a light to light a cigar, and gave the other party a cigar. The two leaned together to light cigars and chatted. After a few minutes, Duanmu came back and Cui Jian's hand left the gun.

The two walked back, and Duanmu said, "They are Mo Lin's secret bodyguards. This explains why Mo Lin is so courageous."

After arriving in Hancheng, Mo Lin did not show any nervous behavior and seemed to be very confident about the surrounding environment. The reason was that in addition to Dayin Security, there was at least one team of bodyguards protecting his safety. I think it should be the bodyguards arranged by Li Jie for Mo Lin. However, Cui Jian felt that it still could not fully explain Mo Lin's calmness. He thought that there should be secret guards around Mo Lin, and it was possible that someone used Mo Lin as bait to hunt down Qi Sha.

Because of the three-party cooperation, it is unlikely that the Nemo execution team would snipe Qi Sha without notifying him in advance. Then who would dig a trap? Cui Jian thought of the ice spike. However, Cui Jian knew his level of reasoning, so he just told Shengzi what he knew, without adding his own speculation.

After listening to this, Shengzi told Cui Jian a ghost story: "At three o'clock in the morning today, someone used your mobile phone." She was referring to the special mobile phone.

Cui Jian immediately broke out in a cold sweat. Indeed, there was only Li Ran's number on the phone. If anyone asked, he would explain that it was a backup number for emergency contact. No other information would be kept on the phone, and a password was required to turn it on.

Cui Jian recalled that Duanmu was on duty from 2 to 5 in the morning, and he and Gui Yi were resting. Cui Jian slept very soundly last night, which was rare for him when he was on a mission. After all, he knew that the one who came to kill Mo Lin was Qi Sha, so he might as well sleep a little. But this is not a reason for others to touch your phone.

The special mobile phone was placed in the inner pocket of his suit, located on the left abdomen. He took off his suit when he went to sleep, otherwise he would have to iron his suit the next day.

Cui Jian and Gui Yi slept in the same bedroom, the door of which was ajar, and outside the door was a large living room, where Duanmu was. The only suspect could only be Duanmu. But Cui Jian knew Duanmu well, and he knew that Duanmu would never touch his personal belongings easily, unless Duanmu doubted him.

Duanmu, the special agent, is one of the three partners of Qi Sha, but Duanmu, the bodyguard, is not and will not cooperate with Qi Sha's actions. Cui Jian is still confident in his acting skills and can't remember where he gave away his flaws.

Sure enough, what the housekeeper said was right. Worrying too much will lead to confusion. I should just keep my role stable.

On the other side, Duanmu was in the bathroom, sending a message as Black Widow's employer: Wasn't it you who did it last night?
Black Widow: No, when what happened?

Duanmu: The bodyguard on duty last night fell asleep.

Black Widow thought for a long time, how did you know that the bodyguard on duty fell asleep? Black Widow asked: Tell me more specifically.

Damn it! Duanmu also thought for a long time: When should we start?
Black Widow: This is my business.

Duanmu had no time to be angry with the Black Widow. He still couldn't believe that he fell asleep while on duty in the early hours of the morning. When he woke up, he found nothing. The things were still the same. Cui Jian and Gui Yi were still resting, and the alarm was intact. The only thing that was unclear was whether Mo Lin was gone. It wasn't until the morning that Mo Lin told him about the dinner. Duanmu began to doubt his life. Did he really fall asleep accidentally while on duty?

No, it's unlikely. There must be an external force. Assuming there is an external force, who could it be? Duanmu first thought of Cui Jian and Gui Yi, and Duanmu first ruled out Gui Yi. As for Cui Jian? It is highly unlikely, unless he begins to doubt himself. But as Tianxia Duanmu, Nemo Duanmu and bodyguard Duanmu, they are not in a position to harm Mo Lin. Of course, Cui Jian's mind is relatively simple, and he may not think from this perspective.

Duanmu came out of the bathroom. Gui Yi and Cui Jian were playing chess in the corner of the living room. Mo Lin had just taken a shower and was wearing a white bathrobe and sitting on the sofa in the living room watching TV.

Why are you watching TV in the living room? Don't you have a TV in your bedroom? Duanmu noticed that Mo Lin looked at Gui Yi from time to time. He stood aside for a while, but saw Mo Lin walked to Gui Yi and leaned over to look at the chess game. Then he naturally put his hand on Gui Yi's back and said, "You are in check."

Suddenly, Gui Yi raised his right hand, bent Mo Lin's hand, stood up, grabbed Mo Lin's hair with his right hand, and smashed his head on the chessboard. A chess piece brushed Mo Lin's ear, leaving a bloody line. Gui Yi pulled Mo Lin to the ground and returned to his position.

Cui Jian didn't even blink: "Rook 4 to 3, check."

Gui Yi blinked for a long time and answered honestly: "I can't remember, you win."
