When Bai Yiquan returned to the box, his face became very unnatural.

The squad leader looked at him a little strangely: "You have a very bad face, are you sick?"

Bai Yiquan shook his head desperately: "No, no, no, I feel good." ”

"Where's the matter? You've been very wrong since just now. ”

Bai Yiquan sat back on the stool, looking at everyone's puzzled looks, he cleared his throat: "Ahem, the popularity of this restaurant doesn't seem to be very good, and not many people come to eat at this point in time." ”

"yes, that's why it's about to close. The squad leader stuffed a cigarette into his mouth, and then said vaguely while looking for a lighter, "But the food here still tastes good." ”

Bai Yiquan nodded reluctantly.

"What's wrong?" Ani asked in a whisper.

"I don't know if I'm overthinking it. Bai Yiquan wiped the sweat from his forehead, there was heavy snow outside the window, but the temperature in the window was still maintained at a very high limit. He didn't know if it was because of this reason that he was sweating, or if it was simply because he was nervous, "I just feel that there are a little few people in this restaurant." ”

"A little little?"

"yes, I couldn't hear anything in the hallway just now. It's quietly a little weird. Bai Yiquan said, "And the nearby box doesn't look like there are people, obviously there were a few waiters when we came before, but I didn't even see the waiter just now." ”

Ani thought for a moment and asked, "Is it off work?"

", how can you get off work at this point. But maybe I went to the floor below, maybe I thought about it too much. Bai Yiquan beckoned Ani to continue eating, "Come on, come on, don't worry about so much, just keep eating." ”

Ani nodded obediently. At this time, the squad leader stood up from his seat, walked to the door with a cigarette in his mouth: "I lost my lighter, go down and buy one back, you can continue to eat." ”

Everyone responded, and a boy smiled and said to the squad leader not to take this opportunity to escape the order. The squad leader said with an angry face how could he escape the order, he was a policeman. The atmosphere in the box became joyful again, which was completely in line with the atmosphere of the class reunion. However, Bai Yiquan's hanging heart could not be put down, seeing that the squad leader was about to leave the box, he couldn't hold back anymore, and jumped up directly from the stool: "Wait for me, I'm going to the toilet." ”

The squad leader looked at him suspiciously: "Are you going to the toilet again?" ”

"I just went to call, oh, I'm in urgent need of urine, you eat slowly, I'll be back with the squad leader right away." ”

Bai Yiquan pushed the squad leader's back and left the box and returned to the corridor again. At that moment, he wished he could see the two elderly waiters standing at the end of the hallway, not very good-looking, or hear the men in the next box scolding rudely as they drank.

But there was nothing, the hallway was empty, and the silence around was terrible.

"The toilet is at the end of the hallway. The squad leader and Bai Yiquan said, "You hurry up and go back to the toilet, everyone hasn't seen you for so long, but you ran outside three times and twice." I'll go down there and buy a lighter and I'll go back. ”

"I, I, I, I go down. Bai Yiquan gave a reason for nonsense, "The toilet at the end of the corridor is being repaired, I just went to see it." ”

"You're really a lot of!"

The squad leader scolded and walked down the next floor, and Bai Yiquan followed behind him. By the way, I glanced at the box next door, and without exception, except for the box they were in, the rest of the box did not have a single guest. Not even the lights were turned on, only empty tables and chairs.

"It's weird, where is the waiter. The squad leader also felt that something was wrong.

"Maybe it's all down there. Bai Yiquan said, "Isn't the main desk of this hotel just below?"

"That's true, but it's always weird. The squad leader frowned slightly, "Although the business of this shop is indeed not very good, it is not so bad." I remember there were quite a few guests when we came up, didn't I?"

Bai Yiquan did not speak. Because the two of them had already walked down the stairs to the next floor, just like the picture that Bai Yiquan didn't want to see, this floor was still empty. Even at the cash register, the white cash register was placed alone on the table at the front desk, and the small drawer used to hold the money had been opened, and a stack of red soft girl coins was neatly stacked inside, but it was left unattended. And the hall that should have been the most lively is now only empty tables and chairs, and steaming hot pots, but there is no shadow of people.

It wasn't until now that Bai Yiquan and the squad leader could be sure that something really happened.

"Damn, was it stolen?" The squad leader quickly walked to the front desk, glanced at the banknotes in the cash register, and frowned tightly, "No, there doesn't seem to be a shortage of money here." ”

Bai Yiquan sighed. I have to say that the squad leader's reflexes are very good, and when he encounters this situation, his first reaction is not to be stunned, but to suspect that the hotel has been burglarized...... I have to say that he is really suitable for the police profession, and he has an extraordinary sensitivity to items such as cash registers like thieves. But the current situation is obviously not explained by the word theft.

What kind of thief can steal an entire restaurant without a word?!

Soon the squad leader realized this, and he turned to suspect a higher-level man-made accident, such as a terrorist attack, or a ticket kidnapping.

"Stay there and don't move!" the squad leader took out his phone and walked to the window, "I'll make a call first." ”

Bai Yiquan stood still and did not move. He knew that the squad leader's phone would not be able to go out, because his own mobile phone did not have any signal, and even Jiang Yang's call with him was forcibly interrupted. He knew that eighty percent of the accident was wrong, but that little fluke in his heart made him try to convince himself that the real situation might be those two percent.

For example, the guest just left after eating, and for example, the phone call could not be made because there was a problem with the nearby communication base station. But now, these two reasons could not convince him. He silently walked up to the hotel, pushed open the glass door, and looked down.

Judging from his location, not a single figure could be found in the entire department store. The luxury counter on the first floor, the clothing store on the second floor, and the restaurant on the third floor, which is where he is, are empty. The expensive jewelry and beautiful clothes sat quietly on the counter or on the hanger, but no one took them away.

It's like a wordless tombstone.
