Chapter 2 Suspicious Characters
Looking at the white men who were looking at them suspiciously and talking in whispers in English, and at this very familiar hanging garden, Sun Xin was quite sure that his memory was not wrong, that he had indeed been here, and that this was indeed the Omni Hotel. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The Omni Hotel is a 4-star hotel located in the heart of downtown Los Angeles. If it weren't for the rich second-generation classmates who invited all their classmates to go when they graduated, Sun Xin would not have come to this hotel with the team to pay close to 1,700 yuan for an ordinary room a night.
Although he didn't know why he would choose a real-life hotel, he was sure that he would have an advantage over himself who was more familiar with the hotel terrain than anyone else.
Sun Xin quietly concealed this information, and did not intend to share his advantages with anyone. Even those nominal teammates he doesn't intend to share with - peers who don't have a stake in them and have good friendships can't be trusted, and when the time comes, maybe they'll all be thinking about how to kill you and save themselves.
Convinced of this hypothetical speculation, Sun Xin thought about it and decided not to stay where he was for onlookers. He had just noticed that a staff member had left the place in a hurry, presumably to notify the security guards that there was a suspicious person here.
Before the outbreak of the zombie virus, they would have been a group of smugglers without entry certificates, and if they stayed here, they would probably add to the serious crime of trespassing in private places in the United States.
"Keep up with me." Waving to a few members of the team who could not yet be trusted, Sun Xin walked towards the exit of the Sky Garden with a natural and nonchalant expression - they could not act panicked now, that would make them suspicious enough to become suspicious "dangerous people".
However, the timing and occasion of their appearance were too bad, Sun Xin's actions instantly attracted the attention of the waiters, and one of them stepped forward to stop him and said vigilantly: "Sir, can you wait here for a while?" ”
Although he asked politely, Sun Xin estimated that if he refused, the name of the suspicious person would be truly confirmed. So he immediately responded with an understanding smile and nodded, "Yes, but please try as fast as possible, I'm in a bit of a hurry." ”
The waiter who stopped Sun Xin was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect things to go so smoothly, and then said, "Thank you for your cooperation, sir." ”
At the same time, the rest of the groups had already begun to do something out of the ordinary. For example, the group of three young people, the younger two were fine, and they were visibly uneasy about the unfamiliar environment and the English-speaking crowd of onlookers. But the leading high school student was the opposite, not only extremely excited, but also aggressive in his eyes when he looked around, and he was vaguely targeted by three male waitresses.
The group of pilots and tattooed men was rather calm and deliberately distanced themselves from the three young men. It was only when one of the members, a man in a suit, took a cigarette from his pocket and lit it that a waiter went to remind him that smoking was not allowed. The man in the suit smiled apologetically, apologized in fluent English, and immediately extinguished the cigarette butt.
As for the white-collar men's team, they were a little far away from Sun Xin, and he only vaguely heard the white-collar men talking to one of the waiters in English about some strange things, including the word zombie and escape-this retarded. For the white-collar man's thinking, Sun Xin has no more comments.
They didn't have to wait long, and a few minutes later, a middle-aged white man with a sense of majesty strode up to them, pointed to the sixteen people who inexplicably appeared from the hanging garden in front of them, and asked the guard beside them, "Who are these strange guys?" Can anyone explain it to me. ”
Having anticipated his suspicious identity, Sun Xin kept enough composure, but although he did not look back at the reaction of those "companions", it was also known from the gloomy expression of the middle-aged white man that those "companions" probably couldn't calm down at all.
If only I were the only one......
Thinking of this impossible assumption for no reason, Sun Xin couldn't help but think: this group of people is here to increase the difficulty of the game, the identity and age of the original personnel are confusing enough, and now with the label of "suspicious or dangerous person", the difficulty has suddenly risen to the difficulty level.
At the same time, a thought that almost disappeared flashed through his mind - when he came to the Omni Hotel half a month ago, the service desk reminded him that he must bring his room key with him when moving around the hotel.
Obviously, Sun Xin doesn't think he has a so-called room card on him.
Suspicious characters in strange places, they don't even have identification, and before long, they have to face zombies. Sun Xin only felt that this start was to a certain extent, and it was already difficult to make it worse.
"Mr. Qiao, they are forest trimmers invited by the Personnel Department, and the Security Department has just found their information, and they are indeed registered in the system." Pressing the headset on his left ear with one hand, the black security guard continued, "Even though it doesn't look like it, they've carried out the prescribed procedures." ”
The middle-aged white man known as Mr. Qiao subconsciously turned the ring on his right hand and mumbled, but did not respond to the black security guard.
"We used to be forest pruners...... the high school student said with a smile and his two little followers, "The gardener is a good identity, I knew that this game would arrange our identities, and I told you that there is nothing to be afraid of." ”
The white-collar man seemed to be still trying to explain what was going to happen to the waiter, and although it was obvious that the other party thought he was a guy who had accidentally smoked too much marijuana, he still tried to explain in barely communicative English.
Except for them, Sun Xin stole a glance at the others, who seemed to be happy to stay in the hanging garden full of people, and were all waiting for what the hotel would do with them.
But Sun Xin could sense that the white man was suspicious of their identity, or that he had never trusted the sixteen strangely dressed Asians to be so-called forest trimmers - no tools, no uniforms, no staff cards, and Sun Xin couldn't think of how a man who hadn't smoked much marijuana and still had a sane brain could trust them.
The middle-aged white man was just wondering how he could get these sixteen weird guys out of the way without alarming the guests, or maybe he would want to get the fucking kids to the police station.
"Hello sir, I'm the pilot of Naman Air," the captain man, who was originally discussing with his teammates, suddenly took out the card from his coat pocket and said, "You can confirm my staff number." ”
After hearing this, the middle-aged white man hooked his fingers and motioned for one of the security guards behind him to step forward, but judging from the security guard's gesture of pressing his hand on his waist, Sun Xin was not optimistic about how friendly the communication between them would be.
Quietly observing this person's expression and small movements, Sun Xin realized that he had to do something, he couldn't consume with the other party here anymore, especially since he didn't want to mix with this group of mentally retarded people anymore. From the beginning of the mission, danger could come at any time, and he had to do something.
And the first is to get rid of this group of mentally retarded.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Joe, my colleague and I seem to have left our tools in the car." Sun Xin pretended to find his two pockets, and said apologetically: "If you can, can you trouble the security guard behind you to lead the way for us?" It's so big, I'm not familiar with it, I don't want to get lost here. ”
With a snap of his fingers, Mr. Joe granted his wish. In fact, he wished that all these sixteen people would be like Sun Xin, and they would automatically and consciously get out.
"Wayne, you send them," Mr. Joe ordered to another black security guard with a slightly chubby belly behind him.
"Yes sir." Wayne nodded in agreement, and at the same time stretched out his hand to indicate the location of the gate, and said coldly, "Please leave from this side with your colleagues." ”
stepped forward quickly, but Sun Xin accidentally bumped into a food delivery cart when he passed by, and the whole person was lying on top, but he quickly stood up again, smiled apologetically at the waiter of the cart and walked quickly to the exit.
"Thank you for your help." As he passed by the black security guard, Dong Yong nodded in thanks, as if he was trying to make himself appear to be involved in these things.
Wayne nodded silently and did not reply.
"You shouldn't be talking to him." Walking through the door to the front of the elevator, Emma still clasped her hands to her chest and whispered: "Since you don't understand anything, just shut your mouth and let Sun Xin complete all the communication, don't let your mouth affect our situation." ”
Glancing at Emma, Dong Yongtian smiled and said, "I know, thank you for the reminder." ”
"......" Emma's face suddenly sank, and she said coldly, "I'm only twenty years old. ”
"Is that so?" Dong Yong covered his mouth in surprise and said in disbelief: "I really can't see it--only twenty years old." ”
Not wanting to see the two of them fighting, Sun Xin interrupted them with a soft cough. He didn't understand how thick the nerves of these two people were, and they could quarrel in this situation, just as he didn't understand the thinking of these two people.
In fact, these two people, along with that Xiao Bin, are quite suspicious characters, and Sun Xin can't even figure out why they chose himself even now. If it is expressed in terms of the game he likes, it is that the initial favorability of these three people is too high, and they directly crossed the stage of acquaintance and became friends or above.
It wasn't logical, but since it had happened, Sun Xin believed that there was some unknown reason for it.
With a clang, the elevator door slowly opened. Looking inside from the outside, only the interior decoration is very simple, and there is nothing other than a few human-height mirrors. Wayne, a black security guard, walked in, raised his eyes to them and said, "Please come in." ”
Walking into the elevator as instructed, Sun stood at a distance of one position from Wayne, not too far or too close, as that would cause the other party to be wary, and this was due to their poor start.
The elevator was fast, and it quickly descended from the sky garden on the twentieth floor to the tenth. At this moment, Sun Xin suddenly reached out and pressed the button on the tenth floor, and Wayne raised his head sharply and asked in a deep voice, "What's wrong?" ”
Sun Xin was not frightened by his tone, only to see him touch his stomach and beg in a low voice: "Let me go to the toilet in this building, I can't help it......"
“…… I need to follow you into the bathroom. As soon as Wayne finished speaking, the elevator door slowly opened, Sun Xin waved to him anxiously, and then ran quickly in the direction of the toilet accompanied by the helpless Wayne.
Before leaving, Wayne turned to the three of them and warned solemnly, "If I don't see any of you when I come back, you're in big trouble, and I'm not kidding you." ”
