Chapter 35 - Maple Leaf Hotel

Maple Leaf Hotel.Ye Chen wasn't unfamiliar with this hideout.In his past life, to take revenge on a loan shark gang, he had traced this hideout as well.He even went deep inside and collected a pile of evidence.However, by that time, the inspection team had already set up a covert operation and had gathered enough evidence to wipe out the gang. Just as he was about to provide the evidence to the team, the hideout had already been raided and destroyed.Fifty years had passed.When Ye Chen stepped inside again, his inner anger could not be suppressed.Putting aside his own vendetta, the secrets hidden within Maple Leaf Hotel were truly monstrous, worthy of universal condemnation!"Sir, do you have a reservation?"As soon as Ye Chen entered, the middle-aged lobby manager immediately approached with a smile."Introduced by Brother Biao," Ye Chen said.Based on the information Ye Chen had gathered in his past life, there were not only the words "Introduced by Brother Biao" to gain entry.He knew of a few other ways to get in.But those alternatives were unnecessary at this moment."Introduced by Brother Biao? Please, please come this way, sir!"Upon hearing "Introduced by Brother Biao," the lobby manager's attitude immediately shifted to one of obsequious flattery.As a thug at Maple Leaf Hotel, although Brother Biao's base appeared to be at the external Ando Financial Company, when it came to dirty work within the hotel, it was always Brother Biao who handled it.Therefore, to the staff of Maple Leaf Hotel, Brother Biao was truly a prominent figure, a trusted assistant to the boss.They also understood that "Introduced by Brother Biao" meant that the person in front of them was a big fish, someone who could be milked for millions.Under the guidance of the lobby manager, Ye Chen took the elevator straight to the 19th floor.As soon as the elevator doors opened, a few thugs who had been stationed there 24/7 asked, "Hey, could you tell me what the weather is like outside?""Clear and breezy," Ye Chen replied, delivering the password.The next moment, several thugs exchanged glances and, with respectful gestures, led him inside. "Sir, please!"After his card was swiped for verification, the ornate door opened.Ye Chen walked in leisurely.The air was filled with a mixture of expensive perfumes and the scent of cigarettes and cigars.The atmosphere was chaotic, like a miniature Las Vegas casino, with women in glamorous attire weaving through the men.No one would have expected that the seemingly inconspicuous Maple Leaf Hotel, which barely ranked in the hotel industry in Jiangzhou, had such an extravagant secret world.Had it not been for Ye Chen's experiences in his past life, where he had reached the level of a multibillionaire, he might have easily fallen into this lavish and indulgent environment as soon as he stepped through the door.However, as soon as he entered, he noticed several surveillance cameras turning towards him, scrutinizing the unfamiliar face.A cold smile crept onto his face.Ye Chen feigned a look of excitement and walked towards the chip exchange counter.He exchanged a million in chips all at once.Then he made his way to the gaming tables, playing the role of a typical gambler with dramatic flair.It wasn't until half an hour later that he noticed the cameras that had been focused on him had shifted their attention elsewhere.Red eyes, agitation, curses, excitement, anger, and hair-pulling—all standard reactions of gamblers—were flawlessly demonstrated by him without any sense of incongruity.An hour later, the one million in chips had been lost entirely."Damn, what terrible luck!" Ye Chen angrily stood up and left the table.At that moment, a seductive woman holding a champagne glass walked over to him. "Why the long face?""How could I not be angry? I lost a million in less than an hour and lost black ten times in a row. If it were you, would you not be angry?" Ye Chen replied, putting on an act of desperation."Calm down, calm down. It's normal to have a losing streak. Since you're having bad luck, why not take a break? You look like you're new here. Since you're new, let us offer you our special services. After some fun, maybe your luck will turn around," the seductive woman, who laughed coquettishly, suggested."Who are you?" Ye Chen asked.If Li Changfeng and Zhang Jingshan were here, they would be shocked.Was this really the calm and composed Ye Chen they knew?"Let me introduce myself. People here call me Sister Hong. You could say I'm in charge around here," the seductive woman giggled."In charge, huh?" Ye Chen's attitude immediately softened."About those special services, I heard Brother Biao mentioned it. Where can I find them?""Brother Biao? So, you and Brother Biao are close, huh?" Sister Hong said, a sly smile on her face.With a snap of her fingers, two young men immediately came over. "Sister Hong!""Take this guest to experience some of our services," Sister Hong ordered.She turned to Ye Chen and said, "Sir, these services aren't free. Basic service costs 18,000, advanced is 28,000, and deeper services are 38,000. There are other packages, like the King Suite and Emperor Suite. The girls will explain them to you. Is that alright?""Just money, no problem!" Ye Chen eagerly responded."Alright then, enjoy yourself!" Sister Hong said, and walked away with her champagne glass.Ye Chen, escorted by the two young men, moved deeper into the casino.After another door was opened, a spacious swimming pool appeared before him.In the pool, several women in revealing outfits were playing with the men who looked like nouveau riche.On the edge of the pool, more women were seated."Sir, if you fancy any of the girls, you can take her into the pool, or take her to a room for the services you need. They will explain the prices to you!" one of the young men said.Ye Chen nodded absentmindedly as his gaze swept over the women sitting by the pool.Soon, his eyes fixed on one woman who looked a bit dazed and disheveled."That one!" Ye Chen pointed."Got it, we'll arrange it for you, sir!" the young man said with a smile."Xiao Ya, come over here!" he called out.The woman named Xiao Ya stood up and walked over with a blank expression."God, can you stop looking like you're dead inside? Are you complaining about your good life?" one of the young men scolded her."I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" The woman named Xiao Ya trembled at the scolding.Ye Chen froze.Wasn't this the woman who had been buried in the cement at a construction site in his past life?After the Maple Leaf Hotel scandal was exposed, the details of several women who had died at the hotel were revealed.However, the authorities never disclosed their full details or photos.But Ye Chen had gathered detailed information about these women before the hotel was raided.The woman in front of him, Xiao Ya, was one of those women who had been murdered and dumped at a construction site, her body encased in cement.And the one who had killed her and buried her was Brother Biao!"Sir, do you want to swim first, or go to a room directly?" the young man asked, breaking Ye Chen's train of thought."Straight to the room," Ye Chen said without thinking."Alright!"The young man nodded and then shouted at Xiao Ya, "What are you still doing? Lead our guest to the room!"
