Xiaolan and Luo Jiutian held the window edge tightly with their hands, sticking to the outside of the dark window.
"How is it?" Qin Yin poked his head out of the window of the next room, "Is there no one inside?"
Xiaolan stretched her neck furtively and looked into the room.
The curtains were drawn, and the white curtains covered the world inside. Only the outline of some furniture arrangements could be seen through the moonlight.
"Can't see clearly," Luo Jiutian tried his best to press against the wall and suppress his voice, "There are curtains inside."
"Shall we just break in directly?" Xiaolan had already moved to the window handle.
Luo Jiutian nodded desperately, "Hurry up, Xiaolan, I won't be able to hold on any longer..."
Xiaolan took a deep breath and reached out to grab the window handle.
Twisting...
Sure enough, normal people cannot open it from the outside.
Twisting again…
Sure enough, it's not a problem for me.
"It's open."
Xiaolan opened the window with a calm yet pretentious tone, and the night wind blew across Xiaolan's face and poured into the room, exuding a warm and dry smell.
Luo Jiutian shrank his neck subconsciously, "Is there anyone inside?"
Why are you so skillful in your sneaky moves?
The cool breeze blew open the gap in the curtains. Following the gap, Xiaolan briefly observed the entire room.
"There shouldn't be anyone there," Xiaolan had already climbed up on the window frame, "I'll go in and take a look first."
"Okay," Luo Jiutian nodded, "You go in first, and if anything happens, call me so I can get reinforcements in time."
The rescuers on standby stuck their heads out of the window one after another and watched their performance.
Xiaolan jumped in quickly, and after landing lightly, the room returned to silence.
Here, except for the warm smell flowing everywhere, everything seems to be still.
"Xiaolan! Xiaolan!..." Luo Jiutian's voice came from the window, "Is there anyone inside?"
"Nobody."
"Then...then you pull me in!"
With a bang, Luo Jiutian fell to the ground.
"What does it smell like here?" Luo Jiutian also recognized the unique smell in this room, "Sure enough, Baomu should be here."
"This smell...it smells furry." Xiaolan said.
"Well, yes," Luo Jiutian opened the curtains a little, "This adjective is very appropriate. When I was a child, I had a long-haired dog. Every time I held it and inhaled it... when I played with it, the smell I smelled was similar to this.
It’s very similar.”
Shaggy dog?
"The layout here is similar to our room." Xiaolan took two steps deeper into the room. "The quilt is still spread out. It seems that someone has lived there, but... why is there no luggage?"
Except for the scattered white quilt, there are no other signs of staying in this room.
"Hey, Xiaolan, did the boss say that only one person came to check in?" Luo Jiutian asked.
Xiaolan seemed to know what Luo Jiutian wanted to say.
"Look," Luo Jiutian pointed to the bed, "both quilts have been touched, it doesn't look like there is only one person staying here."
"Let's look for other clues," Xiaolan said, "There must be other traces."
The two used the light from their mobile phones as a light source and searched the bed and the ground.
After a while, Xiaolan stood up from the ground and said, "Brother Jiutian, you check the living room first, and I'll go take a look in the bathroom."
Luo Jiutian was hiding something under the table and said vaguely, "Be careful."
"Um."
The rooms in this hotel are very uniformly decorated. The bathrooms are separated by translucent turquoise frosted glass, and there are floor-length blinds on the inside. Xiaolan walked to the door, grabbed the ring door handle, and opened it little by little.
The bathroom door.
Xiaolan was startled when a figure passed by, and she almost slammed the door back.
"What's wrong?" Luo Jiutian heard the noise and quickly crawled out from under the table.
"It's nothing..." Xiaolan looked at the mirror opposite and the person holding a mobile phone in the mirror in shock, "Oh my God, this is a mirror... I was shocked... It's okay, Brother Jiutian, I was caught in the mirror
I was scared inside."
"The bathroom in this hotel is really weird. There is a mirror right after you enter the door." Luo Jiutian muttered and went back in. "I noticed it as soon as I checked in. I have to tell the store manager when we leave. Decorating like this is not good for Feng Shui.
That’s not good.”
"That's right," Xiao Lan glanced at the mirror anxiously and complained as he walked into the bathroom, "The bathroom is so clean, there are no water stains on the sink, and the trash can is also clean.
…”
"There's no garbage in the trash can in the living room," Luo Jiutian shouted, "This guy doesn't make any garbage at all. It's his fault for being environmentally friendly."
"Could it be that person hiding his whereabouts?" Xiaolan asked.
"If this is the case... she should have folded the quilt when she left," Luo Jiutian said. "The quilts are all scattered. It can be seen that someone has lived here."
"That's right."
Xiaolan walked towards the shower area. The hotel's bathroom was designed with separate dry and wet areas. The shower area also had a special glass partition, which was similar to the specifications of chain hotels in big cities. Xiaolan pushed open the glass door of the shower area and used a light source to sweep it.
Take a look at this small space.
Nothing special.
Xiaolan was about to exit from the shower area.
Tick...
Xiaolan's movements paused.
Her head twisted back inch by inch.
The shower head above my head was dripping.
Speaking of which... there is indeed a smell of dampness that has just dissipated in this shower room.
"Brother Jiutian!" Xiaolan returned to the bathroom door, "Shower room, the person who lives here seems to have taken a bath in the shower room."
"Really!" Luo Jiutian struggled to get up from the ground, "Are there any traces left?"
"There is water vapor, and maybe something else. Let's look for it together... Did you find anything in the living room?"
"No."
"Then what were you looking at just now?"
"There is a white thing under the table. What kind of mark did I think it was?" Luo Jiutian curled his lips. "After a long time of searching, it turned out to be chewing gum. How can people nowadays spit out chewing gum..."
"Chi..."
In the dark room, a burst of laughter suddenly came.
The movements and sounds of the two men stopped abruptly.
"Is that you?" Luo Jiutian asked quickly.
"It's not me," Xiaolan's eyes widened, "Did you hear it too?"
Luo Jiutian nodded stiffly, "Someone is laughing."
The two of them stood at the door of the bathroom, a strange reflection was reflected in the mirror, the night wind blew the swaying curtains, the temperature was freezing, and the atmosphere was terrifying.
"Could it be that we heard it wrong?" Luo Jiutian asked.
Xiaolan didn't have time to answer.
Boom!
An extremely clear sound exploded not far from the two of them.
