Whether this news is right or wrong, it will not cause any loss to mainland hotels.
Moreover, the person who leaked the news was the survivor and had nothing to do with the Mainland Hotel.
Anyone who wants to go to war with V can do so, but the Continental Hotel will not be a pawn in their hands.
As for the death of those 126 killers, what does it have to do with the Continental Hotel
The hotel is only a platform that provides intermediary and logistical services. It is neither the owner of the killers nor a training institution for killers. Winston doesn't care about the death of a few killers.
There are thousands of killers of that level in the archives of mainland hotels, and it is normal for one or two hundred of them to die every year.
If more than a hundred people die, then 200 elites from the reserve echelon will be promoted. The old will take over from the new, and the fittest will survive. This has always been the case.
Killers have always been consumable.
There are only a few killers who can live safely until retirement, not to mention that the "companies" that some killers work for are not very clean.
Some do it to silence witnesses, some do it to save money, and any killer who wants to quit will be killed as soon as possible.
This is the legendary way to solve the problem once and for all, saving money and trouble.
Winston looks down on these companies because they play too roughly.
In his opinion, even if someone explicitly wishes to withdraw, their files and membership cards will remain in the database of the mainland hotel.
As long as they want, the so-called withdrawal is just empty talk. They can quit in the morning and take up the task in the afternoon.
Once you become a killer, you will always be a killer. Even if you treat being a killer as a part-time job or a hobby, that's fine too.
He was too lazy to provide the killers with social insurances, retirement age, and the like. If they wanted to work, they could do it. If they didn't want to, they could get out.
This has always been the case with Continental Hotels.
In fact, many killer companies and agents are also the subordinates of mainland hotels, and their killers will receive orders through mainland hotels.
No contribution rate, no official membership card.
The contribution rate is low, so you cannot receive senior member tasks or get a variety of senior member services.
Want to increase your contribution rate? Just earn enough points from the hotel platforms in mainland China.
…
Luke didn't know the "bad news".
He didn't know much about Kingpin and Continental Hotels, so he was overly optimistic when making his expectations for scoring.
While making dinner and reading documents, he didn't know that the two big bosses who were expected to not give up had temporarily stopped their efforts. This plan could be regarded as a wink to a blind man.
At half past five in the afternoon, Elsa and Elizabeth arrived in the same car.
The car belongs to Elizabeth. As an invisible rich woman, she drives a pretty good car and also serves as a driver.
The car was parked in the cleaned up garage on the first floor, and the two were welcomed by Selena to the second floor, where they were given their respective gifts.
Selena took a quick look and realized that what Elsa gave her should be a set of tableware, tea sets or other porcelain items.
This gift is very adult and family-friendly, and any family could use something like this.
Even if you don’t use it, you can keep the product in its original packaging and give it to someone else next time.
Elizabeth's is also easy to guess. It is most likely a work of art, a vase or something like that.
This gift is very youthful and idealistic. After all, everyone's aesthetic views on art are quite different.
Selina didn't really care.
If it looks good, use it. If it doesn’t, just put it in the storage room. The building is big enough anyway.
She just casually asked, "Where's Dustin? Didn't he come with you?"
Elsa: "I called him on the way here. He won't leave the bureau until half past six and will be here on time at seven."
Everyone showed an expression of "as expected".
They are all Dustin’s old subordinates, and everyone is clear about the boss’s schedule.
In fact, the people present roughly understood each other's habits.
Elsa likes to prepare half an hour to twenty minutes in advance when doing things.
Luke and Selina set aside ten to fifteen minutes.
Dustin is at most five to two minutes early. Being late is inevitable, but he is the boss after all.
Elizabeth? She is more free, often doing irregular exercises within a period of five minutes to half an hour.
After going up to the second floor, they both greeted Luke who was sitting in the kitchen.
Luke responded with a smile, taking out the warm pastries from the oven and bringing them over: "I knew Dustin would not be on time, you guys can enjoy yourself and don't eat too much."
There aren't a lot of each type of pastries, but there are quite a lot of varieties. There are more than ten flavors of small cakes, small biscuits, and Taiyaki in different categories.
Luke just reminded Selina to serve drinks to the two girls, and then he went to the bay window to continue looking at the information.
Elsa and the others are here, so of course we can't look at the sensitive information, but there is too much relevant information in New York, so we can just exchange it for a less sensitive one.
Half an hour later, he heard someone calling out to him, "Luke, what are you looking at?"
Luke put the tablet down casually: "New York map."
It was Elizabeth.
Just now the three girls went upstairs to visit the training room on the third floor, and now she is the only one coming down.
Elizabeth looked at the picture on his tablet curiously: "Why does it feel like a photo?"
Luke: "It's a satellite map, it's almost like a photo."
Elizabeth was stunned: "Taken by a satellite? Then... is he a spy?"
Luke chuckled. “We’d have to arrest and interrogate hundreds of companies in the U.S. that develop related software and hardware to find out.”
Elizabeth understood immediately and was not embarrassed: "I have only heard of this kind of thing in movies."
Luke chuckled: "You'll get used to it in the future. Sooner or later, someone on the Internet will provide this kind of service for free."
Seeing her thoughtful expression, he chose to get straight to the point: "Okay, what do you want to ask me?"
Elizabeth finally returned to normal after hearing this: "I need your advice about the future."
"Sit down and talk." Luke motioned for her to sit opposite the small coffee table, then picked up the teapot beside him and poured her a cup of black tea.
She opened her mouth and explained the situation.
There is a female detective in the Intelligence Bureau who is facing various problems after giving birth, including troubles with her family life, physical health, and psychological health. Even a temporary suspension is not an option, so she has no choice but to resign.
This position is vacant.
If it is any other position, then seniority will suffice.
Unfortunately, this position requires a fairly high level of education and certain professional and technical knowledge. Many older female civil servants have enough qualifications but do not have enough knowledge to take this vacant position.
Luke: "What position?"
Elizabeth: "I am the team leader of the NYPD Intelligence Department, responsible for network information collection and analysis. This requires intelligence collection capabilities and certain network technology."
He then understood.
When in Los Angeles, he would intentionally or unintentionally ask Elizabeth to learn some network technology when completing tasks. It didn't have to be too advanced, but at least she had to understand the basic operations.
In the future, more and more cases will definitely involve the Internet, so it is always a good idea for her to get involved early.
