Chapter 2346 2358 [Gin’s Way to Wealth]
"We have to try." Hattori Heiji was obviously of the "want to leave by boat as soon as possible" camp. "Two people have died in the past two days. If we continue to wait here until the bus arrives, who knows how many more people will die. We might as well take the initiative and attack."
Senior Toono nodded. He looked out at the vast lake, thought for a moment, and said, "Cross the lake from here and walk a little further. There is a hotel under construction. Today is a weekday, so there should be someone on duty there. Even if there is no one, we can find the landline installed in the hotel and call the police."
Jiang Xia walked to the side of the boat and said, "You seem to be very familiar with this area."
Senior Toono opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he just shook his head and didn't say anything.
Vodka, who was watching silently, said: "…" How come each of these participants is more of a riddler than the other? These guys really don't know how to write the word death.
But it’s okay this way, as long as there is someone in a more dangerous situation than him, then he is safe!
Under the gaze of vodka encouragement, the participants looked out at the lake and began to look uneasy.
The tour guide, who was also the "vacation manager," took a step back and said, "I... I don't really want to go. I can't drive a boat."
Hattori Heiji looked at him scrutinizingly - "There is a boat on the lake", such important information that can break the blockade, was actually concealed by this tour guide... This guy is really a bit suspicious.
But now there is something else that is more important.
"We already have the boats, we can't waste them." Hattori Heiji looked at Jiang Xia, "Shall we go to the other side and take a look?"
After a pause, he suddenly realized something and quickly changed his words: "No, if both of us leave, what will happen if things get chaotic here?"
In Hattori Heiji's eyes, the only reliable people present were him and Jiang Xia - he didn't want to travel through mountains and rivers to successfully call the police, only to come back and see a river of blood in the villa area, so he might as well wait here for two more days.
"Who among us is going to go..."
Thinking about it this way, Hattori Heiji suddenly realized that this was indeed an extremely difficult problem.
"Let's not talk about the unidentified 'villa vandal', just the vodka next to it is a scary time bomb."
"Also, according to Kudo, 'Dr. Shinde' is likely to have problems as well. We don't know how long it will take to successfully call the police through the forest. If Jiang Xia and I leave, leaving all these people in the villa area... the consequences are really terrifying."
But at the same time, we cannot send these problematic individuals out to call the police: if they just take the ship and never return, that would be fine, but the fear is that they might kill the people who go with them in order to achieve their own goals.
"Tsk." Why did so many troublesome people gather together? Hattori Heiji was so anxious that he scratched his head. Now he was more pleased with the tour guide and the painter - it would be better if the ship was not discovered! That way, everyone would not have to worry about it, and could just stay in the villa and endure the next two days.
At this time, as if seeing his dilemma, Senior Toono hesitated and said, "Why don't I go?"
Hattori Heiji was startled: "You?"
Senior Toono nodded: "Everyone is trapped here... It's actually my responsibility as well."
Jiang Xia glanced at him and said, "Your responsibility? Do you know that villa vandal?"
"No, no." Senior Toono was startled and waved his hands quickly. After a while of wanting to say something, he finally gritted his teeth and said, "Actually, the person who invested in building this resort... is my father!"
"The investor is your father? Then don't you mean you are the young master of the wealthy consortium?" Mrs. Fu was stunned at first, then her eyes turned slightly, "So the ownership of the two lifetime membership tickets was actually decided by you, the young master who went on a secret visit?"
The focus of others was different. Hattori Heiji looked at Senior Toono with a different look of disgust: "I've been wanting to say this for a long time. The emergency plan you made is a piece of rubbish! I suggest you go back and ask your father to fire the person in charge, otherwise something else will happen here sooner or later."
Senior Toono shook his head helplessly: "To be honest, I have a useless younger brother. He is mainly responsible for this holiday villa. However, he is very enthusiastic when accepting tasks, but he finds it troublesome to actually do them, so he pushes everything to me."
That's a euphemism, but not that euphemistic.
Everyone understood, and the rich lady couldn't help but ask, "In other words, your brother takes credit in front of your father, but privately pushes all the hard work and mess to you? - You are such a coward as a brother. And your father, these things should be handed over to the eldest son, why is the second son meddling in it?"
Senior Toono smiled bitterly, "That's why I just said that I am also responsible for everyone being trapped here. I felt aggrieved, so I didn't take this mission seriously after accepting it. I just wanted my brother to make a fool of himself in front of my father. But now... I never thought that a momentary evil thought would bring such terrible consequences."
When everyone recalled what happened in the past two days, they couldn't help but sigh.
Vodka was listening to the stories of the two brothers, but suddenly remembered something.
He looked at Senior Toono in shock: “…” Wait, this guy’s last name is “Tono”, so his family’s consortium should be the “Tono Consortium”... I remember that before I left, the stocks that Brother Gin was tinkering with seemed to belong to the Toono Consortium!
"Brother is in cahoots with Uzo!"
Vodka was suddenly filled with grief, and it took him two seconds to change his words: "Hey, big brother... big brother is really good at using ouzo!"
He thought about this well-known consortium, and then about the small box of money left by the wealthy businessman whose body was hidden in the refrigerator, and silently wiped his face: "So this is the money I earned from selling my body... Now that I think about it, it seems to be more profitable than before."
When vodka comforts itself.
Next to him, Senior Toono also wiped his face vigorously, then clenched his fists: "Now that things have come to this, it's time for me to take responsibility. I have seen the construction drawings here, and I have also visited the hotel construction site on the other side. I have some impression of the layout here. I will take a boat to the other side to find a phone or employee to ask for help, and ask the police to come immediately and rescue everyone!"
…
With a humming sound of the motor, the boat broke through the water and gradually sailed to the other side of the lake as everyone watched.
"This is already the third person who left alone." Vodka counted on his fingers in his mind, "Judging from the interval between the first and second deaths, with this guy's sacrifice, I'm safe tonight!"
He happily thought he could sleep well tonight, but just as he finished thinking this, he suddenly felt something was wrong: "Is it really that simple? ... No, I can't let my guard down. Tonight I must check the room carefully before going to bed, just like I did last night."
