Chapter 1208 Photo Suspicion

The history of the South Building of the Peace Hotel can be traced back to the fourth year of Xianfeng in the Qing Dynasty, that is, 1854, and was rebuilt in 1906 and remains to this day.

It is located in the Wanguo Building Complex, with a address of No. 19 on the Bund. It is well-known both at home and abroad. Lu Xun, Soong Ching Ling, Chaplin and other celebrities have lived here.

It adopts a novel Chicago Neo-Gothic style, with the exterior walls made of granite stones, entered from the revolving hall door, the lobby floor is paved with white Italian marble, and the bronze carved chandeliers at the top are luxurious and elegant, and are known as the "first floor of the Far East".

Under the leadership of the staff of the Peace Hotel, Han Xuan checked into the Sassoon Presidential Suite at the hotel for 88,000 yuan a night, and non-politicians are not allowed to stay, so his identity is naturally enough.

The Sassoon Presidential Suite with a total area of ​​550 square meters is located on the tenth floor. It has a living room, a dining room and a study. From the window, you can see the unrivaled view of the Huangpu River and overlook the Bund National Buildings.

It has not been renovated for many years and the decoration is a bit old. You can tell if a hotel is rich enough and you can visit the Presidential Suite.

I poured a cup of warm water, found a room after drinking, lifted the quilt and lay on the bed, and fell asleep quickly, without even changing my clothes...

the next day.

When Han Xuan got up, his short sleeves were wrinkled and his head was dizzy.

It was cloudy today and it was cooler at night, so he didn't close the windows.

After brushing my teeth, I washed my face and wrung my nose with a tissue. There was not enough paper and my breathing was still not smooth. Maybe I had a cold.

Just a small cold, you don’t need to take medicine. If you take too many antibiotics, your body’s immunity will decrease. Before he had no choice, his parents and mothers did not give him those since he was a child.

The breakfast was very rich, with soup buns, lean eggs and meat porridge, exquisite pastries, eggs, milk, etc., placed on a table where ten people can eat at the same time.

He and Anya must not be able to finish all of them. They waved their hands to the two secretary and bodyguards and said, "Take whatever you want to eat and come and go together.

I had long hoped that I could eat soup dumplings, but today I didn’t have the appetite, so I’ll drink some porridge…”

Hearing Han Xuan's muttering voice, Anya asked him, "Why did you catch a cold?"

“I forgot to close the window last night and it was frozen.

A cold is not a disease, and you will recover naturally after a few days."

Secretary Dawson didn't think so, and walked over to cover Han Xuan's head with his hands.

Han Xuan was slightly stunned. Secretary Dawson had never dared to do this before, and then said, "Don't worry."

It's really okay, if I have a fever, I'll know..."

I suddenly saw a photo in the cabinet.

This room was once the private room of the founder of the hotel, Mr. Sassoon, and many of his precious items were preserved, such as the photo of Jiang Baldhead, American comedy master Charlie Chaplin and the heroine Pauline Goudai, British writer Sir Carlo, etc.

There are many people on the photo he saw, which should be very historical. Because of the poor camera technology back then, most of the faces were blurred and they even deliberately marked the names of each character with a black pen.

Han Xuan was stunned. Among them were famous physicists such as Einstein, Madame Curie, Schrödinger, Dirac, Bohr, and Planck. This is definitely a photo of the world's highest IQ.

He murmured to himself: "If a truck hit me while taking a photo, I guess the modern physics textbook would be at least half thin."

Secretary Chen Yutong almost choked by the egg, patted her chest hard, raised her head and drank a bite of water, and looked soaked, her expression was sore and she felt uncomfortable...

There are many photos in the cabinet, and many Han Xuan can recognize who it is.

I accidentally saw a woman in the photo. He was surprised to find that he had seen this person, and just watched it for a while, she clearly was his grandmother!

Needless to say, the little girl in her arms is undoubtedly her own mother. Even the mole on the back of her hand is the same. Han Xuan saw the photos of her mother when she was a child, exactly the same as this little girl.

I never heard my mother talk about coming to China, but the background is clearly here on the Bund.

The reason why this photo was put in was because the old man standing beside them was known to almost everyone in the whole country, and it was definitely Premier Zhou himself!

"What a joke? My mother actually met Premier Zhou when she was a child?!"

Han Xuan had such a question in his heart.

I had no appetite at all, and now I don’t want to have breakfast. I tried to take out the photo from the cabinet, but found it was locked.

I was confused about my grandmother's identity. Thinking about it carefully, my grandfather and the others seemed to have never mentioned their grandmother's life experience since they were young.

Could it be that old man take a photo together? Maybe it’s an ordinary person?

Of course it is impossible. Thinking that maybe my grandmother left back then, she really had a last resort...

I used to check the car parked at the entrance of Villa No. 1, but later I found that it belonged to a car rental company. The renter paid a lot of cash and didn't even register his identity. The clue was cut off when he arrived here.

Xiangjiang is only that big, with a large population of not much, and a small population. It is not easy to find someone in that big city.

Unexpectedly, news about my grandmother appeared again. I called my mother. Facing her anger after being woken up, I asked tentatively: "Mom, have you ever been to the Shanghai Stock Exchange in China when you were a child?"

“Huaxia?

I have never been there. I heard that the scenery in some places in China is very good, you are there now, right?

If I was in the mood, I might go to travel with you. Your dad is so annoyed that I never want to go out with him again..."

Ignoring my mother's complaints, Han Xuan hung up the phone after hearing that he had nothing.

Judging from her appearance, she was only three or four years old at the time, and it was normal for me not to remember what happened when I was a child.

I picked up the landline receiver and called the front desk, and asked someone to find someone who could manage the hotel. Soon, the hotel lobby manager came over and knocked on the door, bowed slightly, and said to Han Xuan in English: "Good morning."

Master Han, is there anything I can help you?

A reporter came to see you just now, but we stopped him. He is still at the door of the hotel. I don’t know if you want to see him..."

Han Xuan hurriedly interrupted him and said, "Fortunately you came quickly, otherwise I would smash the glass. Please help me open the display cabinet. I want to see a photo."

The lobby manager was confused and followed Han Xuan into the room. When he saw the photo of Premier Zhou, he asked, "What do you want this photo?"

The negatives are gone, there is only this one in the world. If you like it, it doesn’t matter if you give it to you.

This display cabinet has not been opened for a long time. Because it is sealed, it does not require frequent cleaning.

You wait, I'll ask where the key is, the manager should know."

"Well, please try to be as fast as possible.

The little girl in the photo seems to be my mother. Do you know why she appears here? There should be a check-in list in the hotel, right?"

The manager looked embarrassed and said, "Is there any, there are any, they are all in the warehouse. Are you sure you want to check it?"
