Under Zhang Yunhe's command, the patrolmen quickly began searching every area and room of the hotel from the first floor. Soon, a patrolman came running over breathlessly to report, "Sir, we found a rope on the roof connecting the hotel to the building next door. It looks like Lin Ashui escaped from the roof!"

After hearing the report, Zhang Yunhe immediately took people to the rooftop by elevator, checked the rope tied between the roofs of the two buildings, and determined that Lin A Shui had escaped from the rooftop using the rope.

He immediately issued an order: "Call the police station immediately and mobilize all available police officers to block all traffic intersections within the surrounding four blocks. Distribute Lin Ashui's photo and issue a wanted notice for him throughout the concession. Anyone who dares to slack off will be fired. Anyone who shields the murderer will not only be dismissed from their post but also held criminally responsible!"

"Issuing a reward order. Anyone who can provide accurate and effective clues about Lin Ashui and help the police arrest him will be rewarded with 10,000 yuan!"

"Yes, sir!"

The patrol room took swift action under Zhang Yunhe's command.

Such a big incident happened. Although Miyamoto Takazo himself was not injured, five accompanying officials were killed in the explosion. This matter was of no trivial importance, so Zhang Yunhe still took the necessary measures, even though the matter was out of his control.

He had to admit that he still admired the Blue Shirts Society. Despite his meticulous planning, they were still able to bring in a bomb and kill five people. If Miyamoto Takazo had been in Room 5008 at the time, he would have probably become a corpse like the other five accompanying officials.

However, Zhang Yunhe was also very annoyed. He had even called Yu Shuinong personally and asked the Blue Shirts Society not to take action in the concession. Unexpectedly, the people from the Blue Shirts Society turned a deaf ear to his words.

When Zhang Yunhe came down from the roof to the 5th floor, Police Chief Bao Daer, who had just returned home, heard what had just happened in the hotel and rushed over in a hurry.

"Mr. Ishida, what on earth is going on? How could the assassin succeed despite such tight security?" Baodar took the opportunity to criticize.

Zhang Yunhe immediately counterattacked: "Weren't you the one who led the team checking the hotel staff? I'd like to ask you, why didn't you notice anything unusual about the assassin, a waiter who had worked here for five years? Or, were you deliberately shielding the assassin from discovery?"

Bao Daer's defense was immediately broken and he flew into a rage: "Ishida, don't make false accusations without any evidence!"

"Then explain to me, you led the team to verify the identities of the hotel employees, why didn't you find out that Lin A Shui was the assassin? Tell me why?" Zhang Yunhe insisted on this matter.

Bao Daer roared: "You said he was an employee who had worked here for five years. How could I know he was an assassin?"

"I think you should think carefully about how to explain this matter to the Municipal Council's General Office and the Board of Directors. They should also give the Imperial Army a reasonable explanation, otherwise this matter will not end!"

After saying this, Zhang Yunhe turned around and walked towards room 5010.

Bao Daer felt something was wrong and stomped his feet and chased after him.

In room 5010, Miyamoto Takazo was sitting on the sofa smoking. The rest of the accompanying officials were here, as well as several of his personal bodyguards. Plainclothes agents sent by the Special High Technology Department and the Military Police Headquarters were guarding the corridors, elevators and stairwells.

Sato from the Military Police Headquarters also rushed over. Beside him was a Japanese lieutenant colonel officer who also looked like a bad guy.

"Ishida-kun is here. How's the investigation going?" Sato was quite familiar with Ishida's friend, so he asked first.

Zhang Yunhe walked into the room and nodded to Sato, who was questioning him. He then walked over to Miyamoto Ryuzo and said, "Your Excellency, the situation has been basically investigated. The assassin was Lin Ashui, a waiter at the hotel. He has been a waiter at the hotel for five years, so we didn't raise any suspicions when verifying his identity!"

"The explosive was probably a homemade time bomb. After the incident, we immediately checked all the employees in the hotel and finally locked on the waiter Lin Ashui, but he had already climbed a rope from the roof to the next building and escaped through there!"

"I've ordered the police to block all traffic intersections in the four nearby blocks. I've also released Lin Ashui's photo and are doing everything in my power to apprehend the murderer. I've also issued a reward of 1 yuan for any information leading to Lin Ashui's death that helps solve the case!"

"As for Lin Ashui's identity, where he belongs, or is he just a killer? We are still investigating!"

"Your Excellency, this incident is a dereliction of duty on our part. Please rest assured that as long as the assassin is still within the concession, we will definitely bring him to justice!"

Miyamoto Takazo was very annoyed and angry, but he also knew that Ishida Tomoto had tried his best. As the saying goes, the devil is always one step ahead of the saint. No matter how strict your defense is, there will always be a loophole. If someone wants to kill him, as long as they have enough patience, they will always find an opportunity and a flaw.

He stood up, shook hands with Zhang Yunhe and said, "You have done a great job. It is remarkable that you were able to find the murderer in such a short time. My safety in the concession depends on you from now on."

Zhang Yunhe nodded.

At this time, the Japanese lieutenant colonel next to Sato asked, "Ishida-kun, how did the bomb get into the hotel? I saw that you have patrols stationed at every entrance and exit of the hotel. Don't you search people before they come in?"

Zhang Yunhe looked at this person, and Sato quickly introduced him: "Ishida-kun, let me introduce you, this is the new head of the Special High Technology Section, Lieutenant Colonel Nakano Nagisa. He is now in charge of the Special High Technology Section."

"It's Nakano-kun, nice to meet you!" Zhang Yunhe shook hands with Nakano for a long time, then asked, "By the way, I haven't seen Tanaka Daiei for a while. I wonder where he's been transferred to?"

Nakano shook his head and said, "We'll talk about Tanaka-kun's matter later. It's hard to explain it in just a few words!"

"Okay, let's get back to this case. As for how the bomb was planted, the police officers stationed at every entrance and exit of the hotel will definitely not neglect their duties. There's no way the assassin could have brought the bomb into the hotel under the police's noses. After all, a time bomb is quite large. No one could have hidden it on their person or in a container and brought it in!"

"After investigation and analysis, we found that this time bomb was most likely brought in by the assassin before we officially took over the hotel. However, the time bomb was hidden very secretly, so the patrolmen and the gendarmerie headquarters did not find it when they cleared the hotel!" said Zhang Yunhe.

After listening for a while, Nakano asked again, "Ishida-kun's statement is still possible. Do you have any evidence to support this judgment?"
