Chapter 2044-2052 [The Source of Bourbon’s Hatred]

After entering the hotel, President Oda led the group to an elegant and spacious private room.

While enjoying the night view and tasting delicious food, a middle-aged man hurried in along with the meal.

President Oda glanced at him and introduced him to Jiang Xia, "This is Kajimura Yosuke, the manager of this hotel. If you feel there is anything wrong with the food, feel free to contact him."

Kajimura Yosuke had heard of the celebrity Jiang Xia, and he smiled and said, "I didn't expect that our hotel has just opened and a celebrity like you would come to visit. It's really a good start and a good omen."

Curacao: “…” The red one that sees blood?

Hashimoto Maya: "..." If it was just Jiang Xia, it would be fine, but it's a pity that this trip was all for Wu Zuo's land. In other words, Wu Zuo has been keeping an eye on this place. Your good start is a bad omen.

Xun Zhengwan: "..." Heh, you're fawning on celebrities like this. How can a little detective who has just become famous be comparable to the background of their aristocratic family?

He wanted to introduce himself, but everyone only recognized Jiang Xia and not him. In addition, Xun Zhengwan was exhausted after running two cases today, so he didn't say anything in the end: Forget it, what's there for him to introduce to a plain-looking man? Let's wait until we meet someone we want to get to know more.

Everyone's different thoughts did not affect the communication around them.

Jiang Xia was even easier to talk to than he looked. He held his chin with one hand and raised his wine glass with the other. The liquid in the glass reflected a noble red light. "If there is any publicity that requires my cooperation, I will do my best."

The movements are very cool.

However, Curacao glanced at the pomegranate juice in the glass, the corners of his lips rose quickly, and then quickly fell as if nothing had happened.

She finally understood why Wu Zuo, who had come into contact with so many cadres, only pursued Bourbon - President Oda didn't seem to be a person who paid much attention to rules. He treated this dinner as a business meeting, so he asked someone to pour red wine for Jiang Xia.

However, Bourbon obviously didn't want the "public figure violating the prohibition on underage drinking" incident to be on the news and affect their detective agency, so even when the ouzo was about to be brought to his lips, he forcibly stopped it.

Curacao had a great time at this dinner, as they could watch Uzo for fun and have bourbon to further attract hatred.

However, just as she finished laughing, her eyes accidentally fell on the dinner plate, and she suddenly met a pair of eyes - Wu Zo was looking at her in the reflection of the silver dinner plate.

Curacao: “…”

What are you looking at? I didn't steal your wine.

Every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt has its creditor. Go find Bourbon.

She looked away and gracefully cut a piece of steak, pretending that she had not thought about anything and that she was not laughing in her heart at her young colleague who was not of drinking age.

…

On the opposite side, President Oda did not catch Jiang Xia's brief glance away.

Hearing the famous detective's promise so readily, he couldn't help but burst out laughing: "You really like my hotel, don't you? My things are all the best! - By the way, by this time next year, the temple you visited today will have been completely transformed. By then, this area will be mine!"

After a pause, seeing that no one asked further questions, President Oda continued as if nothing had happened: "The renovation won't cost much, at most 6 billion. In addition to the temple, other nearby facilities and the mountain will also be renovated - once it is officially put into use, it will pay for itself in a few months."

Jiang Xia nodded: "Very good."

The manager next to him felt that the guests were not very interested. Worried that the two sides would not be able to continue the conversation, he changed the topic: "By the way, I haven't exchanged business cards with you yet..."

He was about to take out his business card to give to Jiang Xia, but President Oda glared at him and scolded him unhappily: "You love to steal the limelight too much! You have no right to speak when we are chatting!"

"..." Several guests who were originally looking at the manager turned back silently after hearing this, and their gazes fell on President Oda again, feeling a little embarrassed.

President Oda calmed down a bit after seeing this. He looked at Manager Kajimura and waved him away: "Don't you have to catch a flight tonight? Go now."

Manager Kajimura glanced at his watch and was slightly surprised. He quickly said, "Sorry, I'll leave now."

President Oda looked at his hurriedly leaving back and snorted coldly: "You are so careless. If I hadn't promoted you, you wouldn't know where you are now."

As he spoke, he adjusted his tie, and the large diamond on the tie pin reflected a dazzling light.

Jiang Xia was stunned and looked over there.

President Oda keenly noticed his gaze, and immediately straightened his chest and pulled out his tie: "Haha, you like this very much?"

Jiang Xia said objectively: "It looks good."

President Oda laughed: "Many people like to hide their love for property and treasures in front of me, but you are honest - don't worry, it's just a small 5-carat diamond. Once you cooperate with our promotion, you can buy as many of them as you want."

Curacao almost stabbed the steak crookedly: "..." You'd better pray that what he really wants is your big diamond and not something else.

Just as he was thinking about it, Toru Amuro wiped his mouth and said, "With his current salary and commission fees, he can buy as much as he wants."

Curacao: “…” Yes, he can still ask the organization for reimbursement, maybe his reimbursement amount is higher than yours.

President Oda was stunned for two seconds before he realized that this swarthy boss was criticizing him, perhaps because he thought that he was polluting the noble detective career with money.

He frowned and was about to lose his temper, but at this moment, a foreman came running over.

The foreman stopped beside President Oda and said respectfully, "President, this is the cigar you asked for."

President Oda was interrupted and had no choice but to raise his hand to take the cigar box.

The foreman delivered the items and turned to leave, but President Oda remembered something and stopped him: "By the way, where is the receipt?"

The foreman was stunned. He didn't expect that such a big shot would care about such a thing. He quickly took out the receipt that he wanted to throw away and handed it over.

President Oda snatched it away and snorted, "From now on, you must keep receipts for everything I ask you to buy for me, otherwise how can I deduct it from the public funds!"

As he said this, he opened his wallet and stuffed the receipt into it amid the foreman's repeated apologies.

When the wallet was opened, a thick stack of banknotes was revealed. It looked like there were more than a hundred of them, which made the wide front wallet bulge slightly.

——This man actually carried more than one million in cash with him.

Xun Zhengwan suddenly glanced at it and almost choked: He was originally worried that he would be a little arrogant after becoming the head of the family recently, but now it seems that he is still far from it.

Looking at the arrogant senior in front of him, he couldn't help but blurt out: "Do you usually carry so much money with you?"
