Chapter 1665
"Last night, since everyone knew that they were going back today, there were no entertainment scheduled. Everyone returned to their rooms early and packed their luggage, preparing to go home. However, at around 10 pm, the power in the hotel suddenly went out. I went to the front desk to ask around. The hotel said that the line was faulty and would be fixed soon. After more than forty minutes, the line was finally fixed, and the electricity came in. "
After Xu Fang had finished speaking, Liang Tao also said, "Yes, yes. There is indeed such a thing."
Qin Hai said in a low voice, "After the power cut, did anyone leave the room?"
Xu Fang said, "Yes, the weather was very hot last night. After the electricity was cut off, a lot of people left their rooms and went to the beach outside the hotel to enjoy the cool air. They didn't go back to their rooms until there was a call."
"Did you see anyone enter the hotel during the blackout?"
Liang Tao and Xu Fang looked at each other and shook their heads at the same time.
Liang Tao said, "Because the entire building is already taken over by us and the security in the hotel is pretty good, no one has to worry about anyone going in to steal anything." When the call came, I asked around and everyone said they didn't lose anything. Chairman, could someone have stuffed our luggage with drugs in the event of a power outage? But if so, what are their motives? It's really strange. "
Qin Hai pondered for a moment and said, "Everything is possible before the matter is investigated thoroughly. You all should first tell everyone not to be anxious, this matter will definitely be investigated thoroughly, and everyone should be given a clean slate, so everyone can return home smoothly. "Liang Tao and Xu Fang nodded. Seeing that Qin Hai had no other orders, they turned around and continued to comfort the members of the group.
Qin Hai waited for a while. Seeing that Qiao Wei and Xiao Lingling still hadn't come back yet, he guessed that their negotiations with the airport police might not go smoothly. He then left the dark room and prepared to go over to take a look.
Not long after he left the dark room, Anna appeared in the airport terminal. After dialing Qin Hai's cell phone, she quickly arrived in front of him.Anna was called by Qin Hai, he had called Anna before leaving the villa. After all, this was Sydney, the world of westerners. Sometimes, in the eyes of foreigners, there was still some prejudice against the yellow skinned westerners, especially the Chinese. It would be better if Anna appeared.
"Qin, have you called Selina?" Anna asked.
"I tried, but her phone was turned off and she couldn't get through." Actually, Qin Hai had already called Selina when he was still in the villa. However, he couldn't get through to her. If Selina were to appear at this time, the results would be even better. After all, the Edwards clan was very famous in Sydney.
Qin Hai asked, "How is it? What did they say?"
"They've already searched all the packages, but they still won't let them go."Xiao Lingling said indignantly, "This group of people are really bullying them. They say that the three things we Chinese like to do the most are stealing, selling YIN, and drug dealing. They also say that the security in Sydney is terrible because of the large number of immigrants here."
Qin Hai's gaze darkened. "I'll go talk to them."
Anna quickly stopped him and smiled. "Don't worry, darling. We need professionals to deal with the police." After saying that, she made a call and very quickly a middle-aged man came in from outside the airport. After Anna's introduction, this middle-aged man was named Smith, a senior lawyer from Sydney who had worked with Anna many times before, so they were quite familiar with each other.
"Mr. Smith is a very professional lawyer, and it would be most appropriate for him to step in and mediate with the police." Anna said with a smile.
Qin Hai also knew that he had acted on impulse. It was indeed better to let a lawyer handle this. Then he told Smith the whole story, and entrusted it to him in full.
Smith did live up to expectations, and after half an hour, after collecting a million dollars' deposit, the police agreed to let everyone in the dark room leave the airport, but they had to return to the hotel to rest and not leave Sydney.As for the eight men who had been detained by the police, they could not be released for the time being.
Qin Hai asked Liang Tao and Xu Fang to lead the group back to the hotel, while he, Qiao Wei and the others followed Smith to the police station. Here, they saw the drugs and the eight pieces of luggage that the police had found in the boxes of Xie Shan and the other eight people.Perhaps because of Smith's appearance, the police treated them much better, but they still refused to give up and insisted on detaining eight people, including Xie Shan.
Since drug trafficking was a serious crime in Australia and parole was not allowed, Smith had no good way to deal with it. He could only hope that the police would find out what was going on as soon as possible and return Xie Shan's innocence. However, in Smith's experience, it would take at least a month or two, or even longer, to investigate the case. In other words, the rest of the group might be able to return home in a few days, but the eight of them would be detained in Sydney for at least a month or two. If the judge finally decided that they were suspected of drug trafficking, they might even be sentenced.This was too painful!
Qin Hai looked around from the entrance of the hotel all the way to the room that Xie Shan had stayed in before. He looked inside and out, but he did not discover anything.
He then looked through the rooms where the other seven people used to live, but he still couldn't find anything.
Then they went to the hotel's control room to check last night's surveillance records, only to find that the hotel's monitoring had been cut short by a power outage of forty minutes. As for the other monitoring periods, after the hotel's self-examination, there were no strangers entering or exiting Xie Shan's room.
Qin Hai still didn't give up and quickly arrived at the hotel's electrical distribution room. Here, Qin Hai quickly found the problem.
In the storage cabinet of the distribution room, a broken electric meter was casually thrown there. There were traces of smoke and fire on it, and it seemed like there was a serious short circuit fault that led to the meter being burnt down.Anna quickly found a circuit repairman, it was said that he was the one who repaired the electrical circuits after the hotel's power outage last night.
According to this person's instructions, the electric meter in the locker was changed by him last night. Last night, the electric meter had suddenly been shorted out and completely burned down, leading to a total blackout in the hotel. He changed the meter in time and allowed the hotel to regain its brightness.
When he heard this, Qin Hai finally confirmed that someone was secretly using drugs to frame Xie Shan and the others.
However, Qin Hai could not figure out who this person was or what his goal was.
This was Xie Shan and the others' first time in Sydney, and they hadn't had any conflicts with anyone in the past few days. Who would use such a sinister method to frame them?
At this moment, a hotel security guard quickly walked into the distribution room and handed an envelope to Qin Hai. He said that a 14 or 15 year old child had just delivered the letter to the hotel and wanted to give it to him by name.(End of chapter)
