Such a place is obviously not something that three mushroom men can easily enter and leave. Unlike the surface world, even in the top hotels, as long as you are not ragged and have obvious abnormalities, you will never be able to enter the lobby.
If someone stops you, unless there are special guests in the hotel or special events that require curfew, that's another matter.
Under normal circumstances, no matter how high-end a hotel is on the surface world, you will not be stopped when entering.
But the inner earth world is different. Here, if you have a low status, you will definitely be interrogated at the door. If you can't show the matching check-in ability, or you don't have the relevant check-in certificate, or you don't deserve to be here.
Sorry, you will definitely be stopped.
Jiang Yue was well aware of this, so he did not take the liberty to approach. Instead, he wandered around a leisure square outside the inn.
Fortunately, Titan City-State is almost a city that never sleeps at the moment, and there are quite a few people of the same generation around here. The three mushroom men do not seem very obtrusive, and can even be said to have a very weak sense of presence.
This is exactly what Jiang Yue wants.
After wandering around for a while, Sangou became a little impatient: "Second brother, are we just hanging out here? Why don't we find someone to ask?"
Jiang Yue smiled and said, "No rush, just wait."
Of course Jiang Yue was not just wandering around, he had been observing. He was observing the people coming and going in the square, but the focus of his observation was the inn opposite.
Just as he guessed, many teams from big forces were staying in this inn.
"Second brother, what are you looking at? I'm really interested. Let's go in and have a look."
Jiang Qiao said, "You tiger, we don't live in that place and we can't get in at all."
"Didn't Mr. Duo provide funds for the event? In the worst case, let's get a room."
Jiang Qiao still shook his head: "It's inappropriate, absolutely inappropriate. We are mushroom people, and that level of consumption is not something that mushroom people can consume."
If you three mushroom people go to stay in the best inn, even if you don't get beaten out, they will definitely be targeted. They are all wealthy and noble people, what does it mean for you three mushroom people to sneak in?
Does this inn still have a high level of quality? Therefore, even if they can afford the money, there is a high probability that they will not be able to stay in it. They will not let them stay at all.
In normal times, maybe they wouldn't refuse. At this sensitive time, if the mushroom people move in, it will definitely be a disguised humiliation to the residents of other wealthy and noble families, making them feel as if they have eaten a fly. When will I
Have you fallen to the same level as Mushroom Man?
It has to be said that during the time Jiang Yue and the others entered the inner earth world, they slowly learned the way of thinking in the inner earth world.
Absolutely, sometimes the inner earth world is so direct, just like when the lizard people bullied the mushroom people, there was no beating around the bush.
This is really different from the surface world. Even if the surface world looks down on you, it most likely won't show it obviously, let alone openly step on you.
"Are we still worried about not being able to get in?" Sangou means, can't we be invisible?
Jiang Yue shook his head: "This Titan city-state has some evil ways. There is no need to play all the cards right now."
Stealth skills are useful, but they also depend on the situation.
In a downtown area like this, especially in a top-notch inn, if there is any talented group that can see through the invisibility technique, or can sense the invisibility technique, once it is broken through, it will be in big trouble.
Jiang Yue still didn't want to take risks unless necessary.
Of course, the main reason is that Jiang Yue has already made a calculation in his mind and knows what action to take next.
Just when Sangou was getting impatient, Jiang Yue's eyes suddenly lit up and he whispered: "It's almost done."
At the same time, he said to Jiang Qiao: "Dad, take Sangou to the tavern over there and book a private room. If there is no private room, a more remote private room will do."
With a generous stroke of his hand, Mr. Duo directly gave him 10,000 silver coins as activity funds. Naturally, there was no need to worry about not being able to afford places like wine shops and teahouses.
Jiang Qiao didn't know Jiang Yue's intention, but he didn't hesitate and went directly.
Jiang Yue, on the other hand, left the leisure square and came to the side door of the luxury inn. Through his observation, this door was the employee entrance.
Employees enter and exit through this side door when going to and from get off work.
And now, it is the time for shift change. The employees on the shift are on duty, and the employees on the previous shift who have worked hard for a day are getting ready to get off work, and they are starting to come out of the side door one after another.
This inn is very large, and its grade is almost the highest in Titan City. Therefore, the size of the staff is also amazing. During the shift change, there are at least one to two hundred employees off work.
Jiang Yue was obviously not aimless. He observed every employee who was off work. He read the minds of these employees, and at the same time, he also speculated on the personalities of these employees through the details of their actions.
Soon, Jiang Yue targeted one of the employees.
This man looked young, and there was nothing surprising about him among the crowd. It was just that his eyes were not very honest. To Jiang Yue, a person who was interested in observing him, this man's eyes looked a bit ghostly.
He was sneaky, even a little guilty, and his hands would touch his waist and chest a few times intentionally or unintentionally.
If you hadn't observed him carefully, you wouldn't have seen any significance in these subtle movements.
But Jiang Yue concluded that this guy must be dishonest, and he probably stole some things from the inn. Maybe these things were not stolen in the strict sense, but they were definitely not so aboveboard, otherwise, he wouldn't have to be so sneaky.
Haunted.
This man came out with the team after get off work, but he obviously had no intention of making friends. Jiang Yue waited until he was completely alone and walked two streets away, and caught up with this man at the entrance of an alley.
"Friend, stay." Jiang Yue greeted.
The man had already changed into casual clothes, not the clothes of an inn employee. When Jiang Yue called him, the man was a little surprised and even more wary: "Are you calling me?"
But when he saw clearly that the person coming was a mushroom man, the wariness on his face suddenly disappeared. His tone also became cold: "I don't know you, do I? Are you okay?"
Jiang Yue chuckled: "I have nothing to do, but I think you will soon."
The man obviously didn't have a good temper. He looked at Jiang Yue with an evil look: "Haha, it's strange these days. Do the mushroom people dare to come out and make noise? Get away, believe it or not, I will slap you and make you paralyzed?"
"
In this inner earth world, there are really not many ethnic groups that do not have a sense of superiority against the mushroom people. The single combat power of the mushroom people is too weak, and this thinking is rooted in the memory of the major ethnic groups in the inner earth.
Jiang Yue did not argue with him and said calmly: "You think you are doing things without the knowledge of gods or ghosts. You think the innkeeper has a great cause and it doesn't hurt if you pry a little and take a little. Right?"
The man's face changed drastically, and his tone became even more gloomy: "What are you talking nonsense about? You are really not afraid of death. Why don't you have fun with me at night?"
"You still don't know if I'm talking nonsense?" Jiang Yue smiled faintly.
The man had a fierce look on his face and stared at Jiang Yue, as if he wanted to kill someone if he disagreed with him.
Jiang Yue smiled contemptuously: "Okay, brother, you are just a waiter. If you don't have the courage to kill people, don't pretend that you can eat people. Besides, I dare to stop you, am I still afraid that you will do it? Do you believe it?
If you don’t believe it, if you take action, someone from the inn will break into your home tonight to investigate you? I guess your home must be full of things that came from the inn, right?"
Although the psychic technique cannot fully understand what the other person is thinking, it can vaguely grasp some real details.
How could Jiang Yue not see that the other party had a stern look but a soft heart? This guy must be a hard-working porter, and he must be moving a lot of things home every day.
Otherwise, how could he have changed his face and panicked as soon as Jiang Yue told him?
After all, he was a thief with a guilty conscience. Seeing Jiang Yue's calm expression, the man became more and more unsure of himself. His previous arrogance also restrained a lot.
"Who are you?" The other party began to test Jiang Yue's origins. He speculated that he was not sent by the inn.
Otherwise, why would you bother with him and go straight to his house to capture the stolen goods? And why would the inn send a humble mushroom man to do such a thing?
Is this damn mushroom man trying to rip me off by grabbing hold of me?
Damn it, how did this bastard know that I stole things from the inn? Could it be that he had been eyeing me for a long time and been observing me?
Does this guy want to get a piece of the pie?
It's no wonder that this guy has wild thoughts, because Jiang Yue's identity as a mushroom man does seem a bit strange in this situation.
Of course Jiang Yue guessed the other party's psychology and smiled lightly: "It doesn't matter who I am, and you don't have to worry too much. You still have the right to choose whether we should be enemies or friends."
This time, the other party can no longer be fooled.
Be friends? Be enemies?
Why does it feel so weird when these words come out of the mushroom man's mouth?
However, he did not dare to neglect the situation. If he did not go well, he would be in serious trouble, and he might even be put in jail, or even lose his life. It was not impossible.
"What's the point of being enemies? What's the point of being friends?"
Jiang Yue said with a smile: "Being an enemy is easy. If you fall out with me on the spot and prepare to kill someone and silence me, you will naturally become an enemy."
"As for being friends, that's even easier. I've prepared a private room at the Man Tangcai Tavern over there. Let's have a drink together and we'll be considered friends."
drink wine?
The man couldn't help but soften his tone a lot: "It's just drinking, why do you have to make it so thrilling? And, is it really just drinking?"
"If you don't feel satisfied with drinking, of course I still have a business to do with you."
"Business? What kind of business? I'm just a wage earner and I don't know what business to do." The man muttered, his tone softer.
But I muttered in my heart, could this mushroom man want to sell stolen goods to me and buy the things I brought out of the inn at a low price?
"Let's go to the Mantangcai Tavern and let's talk in a private room. You don't want to discuss business in the streets, do you? It's not good to be overheard."
Jiang Yue said and took the lead to leave. He was not worried at all that the other party would not follow. If the other party's details were exposed by him, he would definitely be suspicious in his heart, and there was no way he could leave him alone.
If he left like that, he wouldn't be able to sleep well even if he got home. After all, he was guilty of committing a crime.
Jiang Qiao had already opened the private room, and the drinks, snacks and dishes to go with the wine were all prepared.
After a while, Jiang Yue led this guy into the private room. After giving his name, he found out that this guy's name was A-Piao.
This guy is considered an old employee at the inn, having worked there for more than three years.
However, Ah Piao didn't go into details about the specific things, and it was obvious that he still couldn't let go of his guard.
Because he had something on his mind, even though this guy was also greedy for drink, he still drank too much and couldn't get enough of it.
However, after Jiang Yue drank some wine, this guy finally started to talk a little more.
"Brothers, you are blocking the road and inviting you to drink. Which song are you going to sing? Did I offend you in the past, or do you guys want to get in the way?"
After all, Ah Piao couldn't keep his composure and took the initiative to ask.
Jiang Yue chuckled: "We had no grudges in the past, and we have no grudges recently. To be honest, I only met you today. I don't mean to have any trouble with you."
His tone was sincere, which made Ah Piao somewhat believe him.
"Then what do you mean? The business you just mentioned, do you want to take over the things I have?" Of course Ah Piao would not directly say to sell the stolen goods.
Even if you are a thief, you still want to save face.
"You can keep the things for yourself, we have no intention of taking those things."
Ah Piao felt that he was being manipulated even more.
"You don't know me, and you don't have any ideas. So what do you want to do? You don't want me to do anything bad, do you?"
The more Ah Piao thought about it, the more he felt that this was a possibility. He couldn't help but emphasize: "Let me say it first. I made some profit from the inn. This is not new in our circle. But if you want to use the inn,
You may even bribe me to cause sabotage. I advise you to give up on this idea. This is absolutely impossible. Let’s not talk about losing our minds. I, Ah Piao, will never do anything unscrupulous.”
Jiang Yue was not in a hurry, he chuckled and said: "What do you say? All business in this world can be negotiated. In the end, it's just a matter of how many chips you have. Besides, I didn't tell you to do it.
Destruction. We have no enmity with the inn, so why are we destroying it?"
Not sabotage? Ah Piao felt a little relieved.
He was really worried. If the other party offered a particularly high price and just threw money at it, how could he resist this?
"Don't worry, I'm just going to ask for some information. Each question costs one hundred silver coins. As for whether to answer or not, you can decide for yourself. But don't lie or give random answers, or big trouble will happen."
Asking for news?
Just such a trivial matter, making such a big fuss?
Ah Piao was a little unconvinced: "Are you really just asking for information?"
"Absolutely true."
"One hundred silver coins is a question? Is it..."
"Your monthly income is less than thirty silver coins. If you answer ten questions from me, it will be worth your income for three years. I really can't think of any reason to refuse this deal. Of course, if you are not happy,
You can leave now. With so many of your colleagues, there must be many people who are more in need of money than you. There are many people who are willing to make this money."
Ah Piao was embarrassed and thought to himself, what are you talking about?
He wants to be reserved and push back for a while, and then bargain for a price or something, but if the other party disagrees, he may replace him, and the money will be earned by others?
