Chapter 454: Smoke Bomb
Mediterranean rushed into the dining room, pointed at Xia Xiaoman and the others and yelled at the waiter, "Who are these people? I'm going to hold a banquet tomorrow, and you let a group of people eat here and make it so smoky, so can I still hold the banquet tomorrow?"
The waiter looked embarrassed and said, "Mr. Su, your banquet will start at 8:15 tomorrow night. Before that, everyone has the right to use this dining room. Don't worry, we will definitely be able to rearrange the venue for you before 8 o'clock tomorrow night."
Mediterranean was furious. "This place is so filthy because of a bunch of country bumpkins. You still want me to continue holding banquets here? What if we get sick from eating too much or get some skin disease or infectious disease? Will you be responsible?"
"Hey, you baldy guy, who are you calling a country bumpkin?" Xiao Zheyu slammed the table and stood up.
Mediterranean glanced at Xiao Zheyu with contempt, "I'm talking to the waiter, why are you butting in? You should know your place. If you know you are a country bumpkin, get out of here and don't embarrass yourself."
"Hey, I have a bad temper. If I don't teach you a lesson today, I'm not named Xiao!" As he said that, Xiao Zheyu rolled up his sleeves and prepared for a fight.
Just then, the restaurant manager arrived with a few security guards, "Who's causing trouble again?"
These security guards were all as strong as bulls and holding rifles. Seeing this, Xiao Zheyu stopped and wanted to see how the manager would deal with it.
The waiter saw the manager coming over as if he had seen a savior, "Manager, Mr. Su is going to have a banquet in the small dining room tomorrow, and he is worried that the guests dining in the small dining room will affect his banquet tomorrow."
The manager looked towards the Mediterranean Sea and said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Mr. Su, the dining time you have scheduled is tomorrow. Now there are still 22 hours before your banquet. I can guarantee that within these 22 hours, the dining room will be restored to its original state and will not affect your banquet."
Mediterranean snorted coldly, "It's easy to say, those tables and chairs can be restored to their original state, but these tables and chairs have been used by these people, who knows what kind of bacteria they are contaminated with? Can you guarantee that these tables and chairs are clean and free of bacteria?"
Xiao Zheyu said sarcastically, "If you are so afraid of bacteria, just lock yourself in a sterile room to prevent yourself from coming out and biting people."
Mediterranean glared at him, "Do you have the right to speak here?"
As soon as he finished speaking, two daggers flew towards Mediterranean. The manager and the security guards he brought wanted to stop them, but the incident happened too suddenly. Before they could take a step, the two daggers were inserted into Mediterranean's left and right shoulders, and Mediterranean immediately screamed like a pig being slaughtered.
Seeing the guest injured, the manager's face changed drastically. He hurriedly asked the security guard to check Meitu's injuries, and then looked at Xia Xiaoman with a gloomy face.
Seeing that the manager wanted to hold her accountable, Xia Xiaoman waved her hand and said, "Don't get angry yet, look at this." As she said that, she threw out a black cylindrical object.
When Mediterranean saw the black object, his face turned pale.
On the other side, the manager raised his hand to catch the black object and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "What is this?"
Xie Yi, who was standing next to Xia Xiaoman, explained: "The new smoke bomb developed by the weapons research and development room contains snow rat venom. After detonation, the venom will evaporate into the air. One smoke bomb can knock out an elephant."
"Smoke bomb?" The manager frowned. "Where did you get this thing from?"
Xia Xiaoman pointed at the table and said, "We found it under the table. This may be the reason why Mr. Su came in and made a fuss and wanted us to leave."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zheyu ran to the table closest to him, lifted the tablecloth and took a look, "There is also a smoke bomb here."
There are ten round tables in the small dining room, and a smoke bomb is placed under each table.
The restaurant manager immediately understood Mediterranean's intention, "Mr. Su, could you explain why you need to install drug smoke bombs under each table?"
Yesterday, Mediterranean called to reserve a small dining room, saying that he would host a banquet for his 50th birthday at 8 o'clock tomorrow night. At noon today, Mediterranean came to check the venue and said that he wanted to arrange seats for each guest in advance according to the situation on site.
The restaurant manager found it a bit strange at the time. He had never seen a birthday celebrant host a banquet for himself and worry about every detail of the banquet.
But he did not think much about it. He just thought that Mediterranean's family might have met with an accident, and there might be a custom in the family that one must celebrate the birthday at the age of 50, so the birthday boy would prepare the banquet himself.
While Mediterranean was inspecting the scene, he sent the waiter away, saying that he needed to slowly draw up a list and locations.
The restaurant manager suspected that Mediterranean might have taken advantage of the waiters' absence to hide the smoke bombs under each table.
Mediterranean must have found out in advance that no one had booked the small dining room for a banquet today, so he placed the smoke bomb with knockout drugs at noon today.
Unexpectedly, not long after leaving the restaurant, the restaurant received a reservation call from Xia Xiaoman and his friends. The restaurant manager was worried that there were too many people and too much noise that would affect other guests, so he arranged for them to dine in the small dining room.
I don't know where Mediterranean got the news from, but he was worried that Xia Xiaoman and the others would find the smoke bomb under the table while they were having their meal, or when the waiter was cleaning up the leftovers, so he hurried over and tried to drive Xia Xiaoman and the others away with some clumsy excuses.
When Xia Xiaoman heard what Mediterranean said, she felt something was wrong. They were all people who had survived natural disasters and chaos. No matter what, there would be no such a brainless person who would come alone to cause trouble for them, right?
So when Mediterranean was talking to Xiao Zheyu and the others, Xia Xiaoman secretly discussed with Xie Yi, Ye Xiaojie and the others the purpose of Mediterranean's causing trouble. It was not until Maodan took out a smoke bomb from under the table that they guessed what Mediterranean's purpose was.
The plan was exposed, but Mediterranean still refused to admit it, "What smoke bomb? I don't know anything about it."
Seeing that he refused to admit it, the restaurant manager took out his mobile phone and played the surveillance video of the small dining room.
Except for the toilet, almost every place in the restaurant is monitored. Usually, there is no one to monitor the surveillance, but the cameras are always running. If there is an emergency, the surveillance can be checked at any time.
When Mediterranean saw the surveillance footage pulled up by the restaurant manager, his face turned pale.
He is from the Zhou family in the capital. The Floating City is out of the Zhou family's control. The higher-ups asked him to find a way to gather the important officials in the underground city together, knock them out, re-inject nanochips into them, control them to renovate the Floating City, and bring it back under the Zhou family's control to provide resources for the Zhou family.
Even though the Blue Planet is facing a catastrophe and humanity is facing the threat of extinction, there will still be people who will turn their blades against their companions for their own benefit.
