Before Xiaolan could realize what Qin Yin meant by "investigation", she had already pulled her into the corridor and headed straight to the new resident's room.
"Sister Xiaoyin, are you going to knock on someone's door directly?" Xiaolan couldn't believe it.
"Knock on the door first and take a look," Qin Yin said, "What if there are clues?"
"But what if we alert the enemy?"
"That's why we have to take things by surprise," Qin Yin stood in front of the door and nodded solemnly, "Xiaolan, come on!"
"Ah? Me?"
"That's right," Qin Yin pushed Xiaolan out, "You are a child and quite confusing. Come on."
Although Xiaolan was reluctant in her heart, she still knocked on the door awkwardly under Qin Yin's power.
Tuk-tuk-tuk...
A crisp knock on the door echoed in the corridor at night.
Qin Yin hid by the door and mouthed to Xiaolan, "There seems to be no movement."
Xiaolan shrugged.
"Knock again." Qin Yin ordered.
Xiaolan had no choice but to knock on the door several times, but no one answered the door.
"Hey -" Qin Yin folded his arms and looked at the door, "Didn't he run away with Scar Eye?"
"We don't know who is inside yet," Xiaolan said helplessly, "and...even if the person inside is really related to Scar Eye and Scar Eye has left, then there is no need for this person to stay here anymore."
Qin Yin held her chin and thought for a while, then grabbed Xiaolan's hand and said, "I know, let's go down and look for it."
"Who are you looking for?"
"Look for the landlady," Qin Yin said, "The landlady has seen that person before. Regardless of whether that person has left or not, let's first ask what that person looks like. If it is someone we have met, won't the answer come out?
"
This operation was still convincing. Xiaolan followed Qin Yin blankly, thinking that since coming to Qiaomei City, Qin Yin's IQ seemed to have made a qualitative leap, it was like a switch on his body.
It's like it's been opened.
The two of them walked into the lobby, but the person on duty was not the proprietress, but the hotel owner.
As soon as he saw the two of them, the boss quickly stood up with a smile, his eyes full of respect.
"What do you two need?"
"Isn't the eldest sister here?" Qin Yin was a little confused by the boss's admiring and envious eyes.
"She is sleeping," the boss said, still looking attentive, "If you need anything, I'll take care of it."
"Uh... why are you looking at us like that?" Qin Yin asked, shrinking his neck, "I know we are big customers, but it's not like... you look like you are looking at some rare species."
"Oh, I'm sorry," the boss felt embarrassed. He scratched his head and said vaguely, "It's like this. My wife said you are masters who are here to help deal with the dirty things here, so I...
"
Good guy, when the boss lady passed this word on, it actually turned out like this.
Xiaolan and Qin Yin exchanged glances, and then they both put on secretive expressions. They looked at the boss and said in a deep voice, "Since you already know, we won't hide it anymore."
The boss glanced outside the glass door, lowered his voice and asked, "We...are there really dirty things here?"
Qin Yin pursed her lips and nodded slowly.
"Oh my god..." The boss staggered a bit, "This is..."
"But don't worry," Xiaolan said, "We are very powerful, that dirty thing can't defeat us. Don't worry, uncle, we will definitely help you get it done, but only if you cooperate with us."
The boss's eyes suddenly lit up, with a little fear and a little expectation in his eyes.
"How do you cooperate? I promise to cooperate! As long as you don't harm my wife and children, I will cooperate with you in everything."
"First of all..." Qin Yin pointed to the top of his head, "Is there a new guest checking in today, living next door to us?"
The boss reacted for a moment, then nodded immediately and said, "There is one, my wife is here to receive you."
"Who is that person? What's his name? What does he look like?"
"I...let's take a look," the boss flipped through the register. "That person's name is Jia Ming. I don't know what he looks like. My wife didn't tell me much about that person. She went to bed after dinner.
Go and tell her to let her sleep well and dream..."
This landlady is really obedient.
"Let her rest first..." Qin Yin pretended to be deep in thought, "I don't know if that person is a man or a woman..."
"Look at the ID card number, it's a female," the boss said, "Little Master, is that person related to the dirty things here? It's so scary... But also, that person came to check in in the middle of the night, there is probably something wrong with that person.
…”
"Then take us up to see her room." Qin Yin said decisively.
The boss was stunned, "Ah? This... this is not good. After all, we have to protect the privacy and safety of our guests..."
"Well, let me change the question," Qin Yin said, "Boss, since when have you been on duty here?"
"I'm basically on duty during the day, what's wrong?"
"Did the new resident never come downstairs?"
"I haven't seen her."
"When we passed her room in the morning, she was already in the room," Qin Yin said, "So, she should still be in the room now."
"Yes, I did not see her on the surveillance camera, which means she has never left the room." The boss also followed Qin Yin's train of thought.
Xiaolan spoke, "But when we knocked on the door just now, there seemed to be no one inside."
The three of them stared at each other.
"She won't open the door for you, right?" the boss said, "This is quite normal, after all..."
After all, it was late at night, and two strange strangers suddenly knocked on the door. It would be strange not to be afraid.
"Uncle, you said you watched the surveillance, did you find anything unusual?"
"Abnormal? No..." the boss said, "There are no people on other floors, only your floor has movement. After I took over, I only saw a few of you on the surveillance camera, and no one else... Oh, yes, I
I seem to have seen the child among you helping a man back to the room. I didn’t see clearly who the man was, but he must be one of yours too, right?"
He saw the part where Miaozhen returned to the room with scarred eyes.
"He's one of ours," Qin Yin said confidently, "Boss, have you seen that man again since then?"
"No more," the boss said, "Maybe I didn't notice it. I went to eat just now and didn't look at the surveillance camera."
"No one has come down from upstairs yet?"
"It's just you two," the boss pointed at them, "and then it's gone."
Weird.
Neither Scar Eye nor the woman went downstairs, and the woman never came out since she entered the room. But Scar Eye disappeared out of thin air, and she disappeared next to Miaozhen.
