"I have inquired through the Qinglong Association, but I have not received any definite information. However, a member who worked at the Sansheng Street Casino said that he heard from the owner of the casino that the brother-in-law of the general manager of the Jinling Hotel lost money.
I said it later. It was said that there is a secret passage in the Jinling Hotel, and the outside exit is in a certain hotel. But the general manager and the brother-in-law ran away before the Japanese occupied Nanjing, and now these people cannot be found."
"What did you say?" Zhu Youde said a little excitedly, "What kind of hotel is the exit outside? Wait, let's take a look at the pictures of the Nanjing neighborhood and look around the Jinling Hotel. There are some units called hotels.
!”
Feng Shuting became excited when he heard what Zhu Youde said. He quickly took out a map tube from the cabinet next to him, and then took out a roll of maps from the map tube.
Among these maps, Zhu Youde also found the geographical map of the neighborhood where the Jinling Hotel is located. They spread the map on the table and looked for it. They saw on the map that there were units with the name of the hotel around the Jinling Hotel.
, Dahua Photo Studio, New Era Hotel, East Asia Cinema, Lanzhou Ramen House, and Shanxi Guild Hall.
They have carefully considered and analyzed these units with museums, and found that they can become places for export. One is the New Era Hotel, and the other is the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce Hall.
If it is possible to say that the New Era Hotel is possible, firstly, it is very close to the Jinling Hotel, diagonally opposite the Jinling Hotel, and the distance may be only more than a hundred meters away. In addition, there is a large courtyard behind the New Era Hotel.
There are many houses next to the yard, and it is very convenient to have an exit there. If something happens, you can come to the hotel through the secret passage and leave the hotel again without attracting people's attention.
As for the Shanxi Guild Hall, the conditions here are better. One is that the Shanxi Guild Hall is not far from the hotel. More importantly, the Guild Hall occupies a very wide area with many houses inside, so it is easier to set up exits. Another thing is that when something happens, you can get there from
Going in and out here will not attract people's attention, because the hall itself is a place for people to gather. People coming and going is a common thing.
After Zhu Youde and Feng Shuting analyzed it, they believed that these two places were the most likely. They immediately made a decision that they would take a group of people to conduct on-site inspections in these two places. After the situation was clear, they would study
action plan.
Let’s talk about the Shanxi Guild Hall. After Ma Tianli asked Butler An Zicheng to convey the evacuation plan to all the people, many people in the guild hall took the money from the account and then left the guild hall. A few people did not buy the bus and ferry tickets for the day.
, they just sleep here for one more night and wait until dawn tomorrow before they leave here. They will never wait until noon tomorrow. If they don't leave here earlier, the Japanese will really come to arrest them. By that time,
They can only blame themselves.
When Zhu Youde took Jiang Hong and a few people to the Shanxi Guild Hall, he saw that the door was half closed. Just as Jiang Hong was about to call the door, a notice caught Jiang Hong's eyes. Jiang Hong pointed at the notice:
"Webmaster, look!"
Zhu Youde signaled not to do anything yet. He saw the notice saying: "Because the interior of the hotel is undergoing repairs, it is temporarily closed to all members and visitors."
After Zhu Youde read it, he asked Jiang Hong to start calling the door. Jiang Hong knocked on the door knocker and called, but after calling for a long time, there was still no one at the half-closed door.
