Chapter 260: Outside the Cat's Eye

Hearing this, Star Swirl's footsteps pause. What's the situation? Do thieves still have to say hello when they come to the door?

Suddenly there was no movement outside, and there was a dead silence.

Star Swirl swallowed and crept back to the door.

It was pitch black outside the cat's eye, as if it had been deliberately blocked by something, and Star Swirl immediately hung up the chain of the lock.

"Who? Who's out there? Star Swirl asks boldly.

But she couldn't hear a response for a long time, and after more than ten seconds, she stood on tiptoe again and looked at the cat's eye, the shield was gone, and at this time, there was not even a figure outside the door, as if it was an auditory hallucination.

Maybe it's someone in the wrong room, or maybe it's a drunken tenant, Star Swirl mutters back to her room.

---

The next morning, Star Swirl looked at herself in the mirror, and sure enough, she had two dark circles under her eyes, and she looked at Bai Xiaohan with envy as she was drawing her eyebrows, and sighed.

"What, didn't you sleep well last night?" White looked at Star Swirl.

"By the way, Mr. Bai, didn't you hear a knock on the door last night?"

Bai Xiaohan shook his head suspiciously: "It's usually hard for me to wake up after falling asleep, it's so late, who is it?" ”

"I don't know, I don't see anything in the cat's eyes." Star Swirl said with a frown.

"I guess I'm in the wrong room." Bai Xiaohan put on the last touch of cinnabar-colored lipstick and smiled at Star Swirl, bright and moving.

In the lobby of the hotel, Lu Jingfan was chatting with the beautiful waitress at the front desk without saying a word. Star Swirl scoffed, "I'm talking again." ”

A slight muttering came to his ears, and Lu Jingfan immediately glanced at Star Swirl, "Don't think of me so superficially, okay?" ”

"Oh, so what are you doing?" Bai Xiaohan also joined the ridicule and asked with a smile.

Lu Jingfan said: "Did you hear a knock on the door in the middle of the night?" ”

"Did you hear that?" Star Swirl was surprised.

"That's not true," Lu Jingfan shook his head, "I just heard a lot of tenants complaining that they heard a knock on the door in the middle of the night. ”

"What time is it?" Bai Xiaohan began to ask the hotel front desk.

"It's about two o'clock in the morning, but not a lot of people complain...", the beautiful woman at the front desk replied hesitantly, as if for the sake of the hotel's reputation, and did not want to make the situation too serious.

However, these words happened to be heard by a couple who came to check out at this time, and they couldn't help but complain loudly: "The entire room on the eleventh floor has been knocked all over, and the security of your hotel is simply useless!" ”

"Excuse me, did you see what the person knocking on the door looked like?" Bai Xiaohan asked.

"Are you...?" A suspicious look appeared on the woman's face.

Bai Xiaohan took out his police ID card and showed it in front of several people, and the front desk of the hotel immediately changed his face.

"Did someone call the police?" The woman was also a little surprised.

"No, we're just here for a vacation, and we can't sit idly by when this happens." Bai Xiaohan smiled kindly.

"Comrade policeman, you should take care of it, the security system of this hotel is too bad!" The woman continued to speak indignantly, while the man beside her remained silent.

"Sir, can I tell you about last night?" Bai Xiaohan turned to the silent man.

"I'm sorry, but the car we booked has already arrived," he looked out the door, "Why don't you ask the other tenants?" ”

"Leaving in such a hurry, shouldn't you be weak-hearted?" Lu Jingfan stared at the man and looked up and down.

"What nonsense? Maybe it's a child's prank, and no one called the police to say that they had lost any valuables. The woman glared at Lu Jingfan without showing weakness, but the moment the two of them met, her pupils contracted suddenly, and she instantly lowered her head.

"It was also said... Lost belongings. Seeing this, the front desk had to tell the truth and the situation.

"What did you lose?" Bai Xiaohan asked.

"The tenant of 1303 lost a leather bag, which contained cash and other belongings totaling about 2,000 yuan. He said that he had left it in his room yesterday and suddenly disappeared this morning. ”

"In this case, you should report to the police station first," Bai Xiaohan said, and then looked at the couple, "I'm sorry to delay you for a while, if there is no doubt after watching the surveillance, you can leave." ”

"But—" The man glanced anxiously out the door, and then looked at his wife.

"There's nothing to be afraid of," the woman said angrily with her arms crossed, "Husband, cancel the reserved car, and let them reimburse the fare later." ”

"Oh," the man nodded reluctantly, and the two of them dragged the suitcases to the couch in the lounge area of the hall.

Mr. X, on the other side, glanced up at the two of them and nodded slightly expressionlessly.

"You look at this person like a star, he's still a half-breed!" The woman excitedly touched her husband with her elbow, but the man looked like he was in a state of despair.

In the monitoring room, Bai Xiaohan asked the security guard to call up the surveillance footage after one o'clock in the morning.

At first, there was nothing out of the ordinary, except for two tenants who passed through the hallway on the thirteenth floor in the middle of the night, and none of them stopped at the door of room 1303.

"Take a look at the elevator surveillance." Mr. X said suddenly.

The elevator monitoring is very strange, almost every time it stops on the seventh floor, and no one enters the elevator on this floor.

"Seventh floor..."The hotel security guard's face changed, and cold sweat oozed from his forehead.

"Is there anything wrong with the seventh floor?" Bai Xiaohan asked.

The security guard didn't seem to dare to meet Bai Xiaohan's gaze head-on, and stammered: "Officer, I, I don't know very well, but I heard that there was a tenant on the seventh floor who had an accident..."

"What's going on? Please let me know the details. ”

"It happened before I came," the security guard replied, considering the words, "I heard that there was a young female tenant who came to the hot springs alone and stayed on the seventh floor of the hotel. ”

"Didn't her family call the police?"

The security guard shook his head: "No one called the police, so at that time, I thought that the woman might just be unwilling to pay the room fee, so she left secretly." ”

"Then why did you just say something happened to her?" Bai Xiaohan asked in a deep voice.

"It's... The security guard realized that he had missed his mouth, and he couldn't go back, so he simply shook his head and denied it: "I don't know, I've also heard my colleagues talk about it." Comrade policeman, if you don't believe me, you can check my entry time, I really don't know the situation at that time! ”

Knowing that he couldn't speak from this point on, Bai Xiaohan sat down in front of the monitoring table and said, "I'll see for myself, you don't have to be here." ”

The security guard immediately agreed with a sigh of relief and left the monitoring room without hesitation, but when he passed by the hotel lobby, he caught a glimpse of the couple sitting in the lounge area, and couldn't help but chuckle in his heart.
