Ten minutes later, a piercing fire alarm sounded in the office building, and Qinghou's voice reappeared inside the SUV: "Boss, they are a professional fraud gang, very professional."
Beatrice was just a mid-level manager; her boss, the man in red, was codenamed Black Fox.
The hacker in the hotel last time was also one of their people; he was also present at the scene.
I didn't find any information about their superiors on their computers or phones. Even if I did, it's probably in Black Fox's head.
Wen Ming's voice carried a chilling murderous intent: "You've worked hard. If there are still people behind this, just wait for them to come out and continue killing. We're going to pick up Flora."
The SUV was switched to a Rolls-Royce Phantom luxury car halfway there, and Wenming picked up Flora, who had just finished get off work, on Walter Street.
Flora was very happy to see Wenming. Just as she was about to excitedly chat with Wenming about the interesting things that had happened recently, Wenming suddenly handed her a USB drive.
"what is this?"
Flora looked at Wen Ming with some surprise.
Wen Ming smiled and said, "It's a gift for your father."
"For my father?"
Flora was somewhat surprised, and Wen Ming explained briefly: "That Beatrice comes from an international fraud ring that specializes in deceiving wealthy elderly people. The so-called 'secret to immortality' is nothing more than a 'secret to wealth.' Here is some information about her and her organization."
Flora's eyes lit up with surprise: "Really? Thank you so much! I don't believe in this so-called immortality at all, but my father has always been obsessed with it. How can I thank you enough?"
“As I said, this is a gift, and also an apology, after all, I put his most beloved daughter through two dangerous situations.”
Wen Ming's face was full of apology: "I don't even know if there will be any danger tonight."
"No, it's not your fault, it's all the fault of those bad guys."
And Earl, he's been terribly negligent as the head of 911 in Metropolis. Not only has he allowed the security situation in places like Manhattan to deteriorate, but he's also allowed dangerous heavy weapons like RPGs to enter the market. His term is definitely over!
Flora shook her head repeatedly, her gaze towards Wen Ming filled with affection: "This isn't an apology; this is the best gift I've received tonight."
"No, that one is for your father, this one is for you."
Wen Ming took a box out of his pocket, and Flora looked at the box with great surprise: "What is this?"
How is he so good at this?
Wasn't it always impossible to flirt with him before?
What happened tonight?
"have a look."
Wen Ming handed the box to Flora, who opened it with great anticipation. Inside, she found a bottle of perfume lying quietly.
"This flavor is very unique."
Flora took out her perfume, sprayed some on her wrist, sniffed it, and said with a happy expression, "Thank you, I like it very much."
Thank you, Tru.
Wen Ming gave a polite smile: "I'm glad you like it. Let's go pick out a dress that suits you."
……
19: 00.
The Metropolitan Hotel Association's Mid-Year Cocktail Party was held at the Wolf Hotel, a five-star luxury hotel in the Metropolitan area.
The Wolf Hotel took this reception very seriously, even preparing a red carpet and a signature wall. Many media reporters from the Metropolitan Museum of Art were invited to attend.
When Wen Ming and Flora, dressed in a white and gold gown, walked onto the red carpet, they were immediately bombarded by countless cameras and microphones.
"Wen Ming, tell me about your new hotel!"
"Wen Ming, are you and Flora dating? When are you going to announce your relationship?"
"Wen Ming, I heard that Woven Hansen and his younger siblings have gone missing. What do you think about this?"
……
Flora linked arms with Wen Ming and walked forward. Hearing the reporters' jumbled questions, Flora maintained a polite smile while facing the camera, and whispered to Wen Ming, "Don't pay attention to them. Even if you don't say anything, they will write nonsense. If you pay attention to them, they will be even more excited."
"Thank you!"
This was the first time Wen Ming had been bombarded with so many questions from reporters, and he was almost blinded by the flashes of the cameras.
As the two were walking forward, a commotion suddenly arose behind them, and Flora immediately pulled Wenming to a stop.
"It's the Heaton sisters."
Wen Ming keenly sensed that Flora's tone carried a hint of displeasure. He turned his head and immediately saw a pair of beautiful sisters approaching together.
When they saw Wen Ming, the twin sisters both showed expressions of surprise and delight: "Hi, Flora, is this Wen Ming?"
“Yes, Wenming, this is the older sister, Pali Heaton, and this is the younger sister, Ginny Heaton.”
Flora introduced the two women to Wen Ming, then said, "They are one of the heirs to the Heaton Hotel Group."
"Hello!"
Wen Ming first learned about these two legendary sisters when he read their novels, and later watched some films about learning.
Yes, seriously.
As heirs to the Heaton Hotel Group, the two were born with a silver spoon in their mouths and were pursued by countless men and women. After growing up, they worked as models, singers and actors, and published autobiographies and movies.
Later, the older sister focused on the entertainment industry, while the younger sister focused on the fashion industry, each carving out their own niche. The younger sister even married into the extremely famous Childe family.
Time flies, and these legendary sisters are now over 40 years old. Although they are well-maintained, you can see the marks of time on them.
However, the two sisters did not toned down their flamboyant personalities after getting married.
"I heard a while ago that a super awesome guy came to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, but I didn't expect him to be so cool in person."
Pali showed no hesitation despite Flora standing next to Wenming, and suggested directly, "Let's go for a drink together after this is over."
I'm very interested in how you acquired the Wenxi Hotel; there must have been a lot of clever business maneuvering involved.
"Sorry, I need to take Flora home."
Wenming politely declined, but Ginny immediately chimed in, "After dropping Flora off, we can start the second half."
Flora's face darkened immediately. Just as she was about to say something, Wen Ming refused again, saying, "Sorry, I don't stay up late going to bars. I have to make breakfast for Flora at the hotel tomorrow morning."
Flora's little face immediately lit up with a bright smile. She raised her chin, a hint of pride on her face.
Ladies, did you hear that? Wen Ming only has me in his heart!
Parly, however, did not come unprepared: "I had already heard that Wenming's cooking skills are even better than those of the head chef at Milin Restaurant."
"Wen Ming, after we take Flora home, let's go back to the Flatiron Hotel together. I've always wanted to try the Presidential Suite there."
When the word "try" was mentioned, Parry winked at Wenming.
Ginny immediately chimed in, "I want to try it too!"
Wen Ming understood immediately: "It's my honor. Would you two sisters like to stay in one presidential suite or two separate rooms?"
The two sisters immediately became excited: "One or two rooms are fine too."
Flora's smile froze instantly.
Older women, you've gone too far.
"See you later then."
Wen Ming smiled and nodded to the two sisters, then led Flora towards the lobby. Seeing that Flora had become silent, Wen Ming whispered, "Two presidential suites, 20,000 US dollars, and I can buy you a beautiful dress."
Flora suddenly stopped in her tracks, her lips curving into a wide smile: "I prefer something more practical."
Wen Ming smiled happily: "How about the coffee for the next year?"
Flora raised her beautiful little face and looked at that handsome face, her eyes full of spring fever.
"You know perfectly well that I like drinking tea."
Green tea or black tea?
……
At tonight's party, Wen Ming was undoubtedly the center of everyone's attention.
Even though Wen Ming only owns two hotels and is not a chain hotel giant, owning two five-star luxury hotels in a metropolis like the Metropolis is something that ordinary people cannot compare to.
Moreover, Wen Ming owns both hotels solely.
With $11.66 billion in high-quality fixed assets, even without much liquid capital, it's something that most wealthy people can't compare to.
After all, with 956 rooms and an average occupancy rate of 70% in the Metropolitan area, room fees alone can contribute nearly $80 to Wenming's daily revenue.
If the occupancy rate is 100%, this revenue will double to $151.5 million.
This is just the revenue from accommodation.
In addition, the news of the disappearance of Woven Hansen and his younger siblings has shrouded Wen Ming in mystery, leaving everyone somewhat puzzled.
This made many hotel owners and major shareholders happy to chat with Wen Ming, and the Heaton sisters would also come over to talk to him from time to time.
This is the Eagle Nation, where the strong rule.
Just as Wen Ming was busy dealing with various hotel owners and major shareholders, a graceful figure carrying a tray with two glasses of champagne walked up to him.
Would you like some champagne?
"Thank you!"
Wen Ming casually took a glass of champagne from the tray and was about to put it in his mouth when his right hand suddenly shot out like lightning and grabbed a restless little hand.
"what happened?"
Flora looked at Wen Ming in surprise, while Wen Ming discreetly took a watch back from the small hand: "It's nothing, I ran into a friend, I'm going to the restroom."
Wen Ming squeezed the little hand hard, then walked towards the restroom first.
The owner of the little hand hesitated for a moment, but finally obediently followed Wen Ming to the restroom.
Flora found it a little strange, but she didn't say anything. Instead, she continued chatting with a hotel owner. The Heaton sisters, who were standing nearby, exchanged glances and whispered among themselves.
"It seems that his style is completely different from Wen Fugui's. Wen Fugui would never leave halfway to go on a date with a waitress."
"So eager, it seems we can have a proper in-depth conversation with him tonight. But why does your husband insist that you make contact with him?"
"Do you remember the passing of the fifth generation head of the Childe family two and a half years ago?"
"certainly,"
"He died at the Iron Hotel."
"what?"
……
Inside the restroom, Marcus quickly checked each stall, and after confirming that no one was there, he nodded to Wen Ming and left.
Wen Ming walked to the sink, washed his hands, and turned to look at the woman in the beautiful maid's outfit behind him: "Don't you only steal valuable jewelry and cultural relics? Why did you steal my watch? It's just an ordinary watch that Flora bought for me at the mall."
The woman wasn't embarrassed at all when she was exposed. She pointed to the watch on Wen Ming's wrist and said, "I've never seen this style of watch before. It must be quite valuable. Also, the strap has a row of steel balls, which is very unique. I've never seen a watch with this design before, so I'd like to borrow it to take a closer look."
Catwoman truly lives up to her reputation.
Wen Ming had hidden a dozen or so tiny steel beads, about the size of rice grains, on the watch strap. Most people wouldn't notice them even if they looked closely, but Catwoman was surprisingly perceptive and noticed the difference in her watch strap.
All I can say is, he truly lives up to his reputation as a professional thief.
Wen Ming decided to find a new place for the steel balls.
For example, a belt buckle?
"Stop stealing here. If you get caught, you'll be in big trouble."
Wen Ming walked up to her, carefully looked at her pretty face, and sighed that she was truly God's favorite.
Her Catwoman image is unparalleled.
What's more, it was played by her favorite actress, Anne.
Black Fox and his gang had found a fake Annie—Belinda—to "win him over," but now he had met the real one.
Moreover, this real person is clearly younger than Catwoman in the movie "The Dark Knight Rises".
It's important to know that there was a full eight-year gap between "The Dark Knight Rises" and Bruce Wayne's training with the League of Shadows. Therefore, Catwoman at this time was at least 10 years younger than the Catwoman in the movie.
Of course, this is on the premise that Bruce and Catwoman are from the same universe.
Wen Ming wasn't sure if the two of them were from the same universe, but the catwoman in front of him was undeniably young.
Wen Ming could even see the baby fat on her face. Perhaps sensing the desire in Wen Ming's eyes, the catwoman relaxed, her initial tension eased, and she boldly stepped forward, placing one hand on Wen Ming's tie, asking in a slightly husky voice, "You seem to know me quite well, so why don't you expose me?"
It has to be said that Catwoman is more alluring than a cat.
Wen Ming's heart raced as he smelled the delicate fragrance emanating from her. He quickly shifted his attention: "Do you want me to tell all these hotel owners that you're a professional thief from another world, Miss Catwoman?"
"Different world?"
The pretty maid stared wide-eyed at the handsome man in front of her, completely frozen: "What exactly do you mean?"
Wen Ming nodded and said, "You have passed through the spatial rift and come to my side. This is no longer your world, nor is it Gotham City."
"Selena, your name is Selena Kyle, right?"
"Uh, yes!"
Catwoman Selena was utterly shocked: "How do you know my name? Very few people know my real name, and even fewer know the nickname Catwoman."
Wen Ming pulled a pair of glasses from his pocket: "Put these on."
The graceful woman standing in front of Wen Ming looked puzzled, but still obediently put on the glasses: "You like women who wear glasses?"
"Marcus!"
Wen Ming called out loudly, and Marcus immediately walked in: "Boss."
“Take her to the car to look at the tablet, and let Haihou give her a beginner’s guide. She is very agile. If she wants to escape, don’t stop her. Let her run.”
Wen Ming's words made Catwoman even more confused.
Judging from what this man said, he knows himself very well?
Moreover, what does it mean that you didn't stop me from leaving?
Just then, Wen Ming looked at Catwoman again: "You must wear these glasses when you come to the Metaverse. This will prevent others from recognizing you."
Also, don't steal anything from my car. I don't have anything valuable, but what's in my car could kill you.
After saying that, Wen Ming walked out of the bathroom, leaving the catwoman standing there, unsure of what to do.
……
Where is Wen Ming?
Inside the Iron Hotel, Tony and Bruce meet again, their eyes meeting with displeasure, a result of their previous display of wealth.
Tony wasn't fond of Bruce, this young and wealthy playboy, and Wen Ming often compared him to Bruce, constantly expressing his belief in Bruce's character and saying that Bruce always had a plan B. This made Tony want to compete with Bruce.
"The boss went to a cocktail party, the Metropolitan Hotel Association Mid-Year Cocktail Party."
Karon politely invited the two to sit down in the bar area. Just as he instructed the bartender to prepare a drink for them, he suddenly pressed his earpiece and then calmly looked at the two super-rich men who were exchanging glances in front of him: "I wonder if you received any warning from the Queen of the Sea beforehand."
"What reminder?"
Tony took a glass of wine from the bartender, took a sip, and casually asked...
"The most dangerous person, Lex Luthor, has arrived."
The boss isn't here. Would you be interested in having a chat with him?
Tony raised an eyebrow; "Men or women?"
Bruce narrowed his eyes slightly: "I'm very interested in him."
……
Along with Lex came another person, Rick.
Rick, carrying a metal box, walked up to Charon and said, "I want to see Wenming."
"Is this Mr. Grimes?"
The boss went out to a cocktail party. He instructed me that once you arrive, you can simply tell me what you need, and I will prepare everything for you as quickly as possible.
After Charon handed Leigh over to Iron Man and Batman, he led Rick to the rest area: "Did you bring the gold?"
"Yes, I brought 3 kilograms."
Rick was a little nervous when he heard that Wen Ming wasn't there, but he still wanted to see what the man in front of him would say.
What year is it in your current era?
"2012."
"Okay, according to your timeline, the price of gold is $1569 per ounce. 3 kilograms of gold is worth $151350. What do you need? Do you have a list?"
Charon quickly calculated the price on his calculator, then looked up at Rick. Rick, hearing the price quoted, showed a hint of relief and joy on his face: "I have a list prepared. What I want to ask is, can I buy anti-tank mines and RPGs?"
Surprisingly, the other party did not take the opportunity to lower the price.
Wen Ming is a really good person.
"Sure, is it urgent?"
Upon hearing the other party's request, Charon immediately guessed that they were about to face a war.
Charon had already reviewed the episodes of "The Walking Dead" once, and with the help of what Wenming had arranged beforehand, he guessed that the enemy Charon would be facing was the Governor, that hypocritical and sanctimonious man.
"Ideally within 4 days, uh, I mean, within 2 days in the metaverse, our time flow ratio is 1:2."
Rick rubbed his hands together excitedly. Although he had guessed that the Iron Hotel could get these weapons for him, he did not expect that Wen Ming's employees could handle it for him without his approval.
"Okay, everything on the list can be prepared for you within a day. Would you like to stay here overnight and wait, or go back and come back tomorrow?"
Charon carefully reviewed Rick's list, and after confirming that everything was in order, he looked up at Rick with a smile: "$500 a night, gold settlement."
Rick hesitated for a moment after hearing the price: "I'll go back first."
$500, that's almost enough to buy an RPG round.
"I'm sorry, even we employees have to pay for our own accommodation."
Although the boss will kindly put it on our tab, I have to make it clear to you that the first night is free for newcomers, but afterwards you will have to pay, even if you don't have the money, you still have to put it on our tab.
However, I can buy you a drink.
Charon smiled and explained the hotel's rules to Rick.
Rick nodded his thanks: "Then let's have a drink."
……
"So, you're still interning at your father's company? In charge of a chemical plant?"
Tony stared at the bald man in front of him, feeling somewhat dazed.
This young man was regarded as the most dangerous person by Wen Ming, who treated him as if he were facing a formidable enemy.
These top-level dangerous individuals are worthless, aren't they?
Chemical plant?
What the hell is that?
Can you make money?
"Yes, I've just started looking into some family businesses. What about you?"
Lex smiled as he looked at the arrogant man in front of him, finding his smile extremely annoying, but he didn't show it. Instead, he asked with a smile.
“I have some small businesses of my own, and I can be considered a weapons dealer, well, a weapons dealer whose business spans the globe.”
Tony remembered Wen Ming's warning in the alarm and didn't reveal too much information to the other party. Instead, Bruce said frankly, "I inherited my father's business. Have you heard of our family business? Wayne Corporation."
"Wayne Corporation, my goodness, I've heard of it since I was a kid! It's an incredibly powerful and admirable company!"
When Lex heard that the other person was Bruce Wayne, he immediately showed surprise and even a bit of admiration, which immediately made Tony a little unhappy.
Are these two from the same world?
Is Wayne Enterprises really that powerful?
Stark Industries is awesome, okay?
Bruce shook his head slightly and said, "The reason I'm so powerful is because of my father. I didn't do anything. What brings you here this time?"
Bruce had only been testing the waters, but he hadn't expected to discover that Lex was from the same universe as him, which immediately raised his guard to the highest level.
Lex said excitedly, "Of course I want to do business with Wen Ming. I want to buy all his technologies."
Tony frowned, about to say something, when Bruce shook his head and said, "Sorry, I've already bought his technology, and it's the exclusive agency rights for our universe."
"what?"
Lex was dumbfounded: "Wait, didn't Wenming say that I could buy anything?"
"I'm sorry, you can buy Wayne Group products."
Bruce raised his glass to express his apology.
Tony, watching this scene from the side, thought to himself, "That damned bat seems even worse than Wen Ming."
When did Wen Ming ever say that the technology of the metaverse is sold to only one company per universe?
Tony paused immediately.
I must sell to only one company. If I sell to several companies in one universe, wouldn't my dream of becoming the richest person in the multiverse be ruined?
Damn it, I was a step behind the little bat?
Lex quickly figured out the key point, but he still pretended to be pitiful: "Bruce, give me some technology, our Luther Corporation needs this kind of technology."
Bruce shook his head and said, "There's nothing I can do. These are the rules of the metaverse. Wen Ming's word is law. Have you forgotten?"
Tony picked up his glass, took a sip, and cursed under his breath, guessing that even Wen Ming himself probably didn't know he had set such a rule.
Seeing that Bruce wouldn't listen to reason, Lex could only sigh in frustration: "Then what else can I buy here?"
"Bodyguard service?"
Tony joked, "The bodyguard business here is excellent; I'm very satisfied. Of course, you can also order custom-made weapons from me; we just need to pay Wen Ming a handling fee."
"Bodyguards? Weapons?"
Lex touched his bald head, feeling that these businesses were somewhat mismatched with this amazing hotel.
Is this all the space rift that can connect so many universes can sell?
Could these people be deliberately lying to me while Wen Ming is away?
By the way, where's the lovely Rebecca?
Rebecca would never lie to herself.
Just as Lex was feeling down, Charon brought Rick over, introduced Rick to Tony and the others, and then showed Tony Rick Rick's list: "The boss said he'll sell all these arms deals to you. Do you want to take them?"
Such a small order?
Tony complained out loud, but he was secretly quite pleased.
Is this business only for myself?
The little bat can't get it?
Haha, I knew Wen Ming cared about me the most.
"Yes, it's urgent. It's best to have it ready within a day, otherwise we'll have to give this business to John."
However, he's currently busy with his bodyguard business and probably won't have time for this job for the time being.
Lex glanced at the list in Tony's hand and became even more puzzled when he saw that it only contained weapons, medicine, and food.
No, such a prestigious hotel does this kind of small business?
An order of 15?
More than half of them are food and medicine?
This business is too small!
And that man next to you, grinning like an idiot, weren't you just bragging about your business spanning the globe?
That's it?
I can understand John, that strong man, going into the bodyguard business, but you're so excited about a small job of 15?
How uncultured are you?
Is this Metaverse Iron Hotel just a bunch of extras messing with me?
