Chapter 326 Hungry No. 9

"What are you doing!" Liu Yu reacted quickly. When Xia Yanzhen took action, he shouted and quickly retreated out of the door.

His movements were so smooth that he couldn't even hear the sound of footsteps. His running skills were top-notch.

Prevent? nonexistent.

He didn't wait for anyone else to react.

The dead Richard opened his eyes suddenly, covered his neck and sat up.

"You..." He glared at Xia Yanzhen, the expression on his face fixed on anger, unwillingness, regret and fear.

On the neck, a black curse spread from the wound that looked completely non-fatal.

It quickly covered Richard's body.

He fell down with his hands covering his neck, completely dead.

A little bit of blood remained from his neck and dripped to the ground.

It soon stopped on its own.

A dream stone appeared in front of Richard.

Xia Yanzhen picked it up and looked at the message. It was the Dream Stone (small).

The reward for fighting the killing scene did not change with him into the second-level Dream Apostle and into the Dream Stone (middle).

This reward is very average.

However, "explosive equipment" still has a certain appeal.

Richard, on the other hand, was just as "poor" as Jin. He didn't have any equipment or props on him, and the mark space was completely empty.

Only a 305 room card appeared.

This thing only appeared normally due to Richard's death, and was not an equipment prop that was revealed.

"I'm so poor." Xia Yanzhen said.

"You..." Liu Yu looked at Xia Yanzhen, "How do you know he's not dead?"

She did not see that Richard faked his death and did not deliberately frame Eleven and wanted to do something.

"I don't know." Xia Yanzhen said.

What he saw, heard, and felt was that Richard was dead.

There were no clues that Richard had faked his death.

"Then you still..." Liu Yu didn't finish his words.

He was interrupted by Xia Yanzhen: "What's the problem? If he is dead, I will just cut the body with a knife. If he is not dead, I will give him a ride."

Xia Yanzhen stood up, turned around and looked at everyone at the door of the room: "I think we have never been companions who need to care about each other's lives, right?"

Liu Yu and others did not speak.

They certainly didn't care about Richard's life.

Rather than caring about Richard's life or death, I care about the meaning behind his death.

Was Richard's death caused by the hotel or the eleven people he killed?

This is what everyone cares about.

In the former case, investigating the truth will help everyone understand the hotel and improve the survival rate - at least it is certain that the safety of the room is not 100%.

The latter is to find a "dangerous element".

If possible, everyone should join forces to kill the most powerful and most threatening Eleven.

And now, Richard is faking his death.

Then, he really died in the hands of Eleven.

Eleven's actions and straightforward words revealed the true relationship between everyone in this mission.

They are not companions.

In the confrontation and killing scene, there is no fighting with each other, it is just "unconfidence" in one's own strength.

While not confident that he can kill others and make a profit, he completes the task by himself.

Harmony on the surface, intrigues, and mutual entrapment are the main themes of this mission.

help each other?

Even in cooperative scenes, it is difficult to ensure unity and mutual assistance, let alone confrontational killing scenes.

In a hotel, treating people indifferently and sweeping away the snow in front of each other is showing "goodwill" and "harmless".

Xia Yan really has no deceptive interests or ideas.

But he killed two people in a row, and coupled with those words, it undoubtedly became a "red alert" in the eyes of others.

The atmosphere on the field became more and more solemn.

"I think what Eleven said is right." He Mei suddenly expressed support for Xia Yanzhen, "This person deliberately faked his death, and he must have bad intentions. It's okay for Eleven to kill him, but it eliminates the unrest factor."

"That makes sense." Wang Defa nodded.

"Ha." Mrs. Jones always had a venomous tongue, "No one is hypocritical and wants to avenge someone they only knew for half the night, right? Oh~ Actually, I support someone doing this."

"I'm just surprised that Eleven suddenly took action." Liu Yu said.

Qin Feng shrugged his shoulders and Xiao Xiong spread his hands.

"Okay, I don't want to get involved in your intrigues. It's too much trouble." Xia Yanzhen said, "Don't mess with me."

He walked out of the room and headed towards the elevator.

"Should we join forces to kill him?" Mrs. Jones asked with ill intentions.

"If we join forces, I'll kill you too." Liu Yu glanced at Mrs. Jones.

Don’t you realize that you are in the minority now?

Over there Kazumi had already trotted away.

"Do you want to give it a try?" Mrs. Jones showed no sign of weakness and looked at Liu Yu.

"Forget it, I don't want to end up dying in the mission for a little Dream Stone." Liu Yu said, "Eleven is right, don't mess with me, everyone should be well."

She turned and returned to the room.

Qin Feng and Wang Defa left one after another.

"Haha." Mrs. Jones returned to the room with a half-hearted smile.

With the death of Richard, this already fragile alliance completely fell apart.

Taking the elevator to the lobby on the first floor, Xia Yanzhen saw that Douglas was no longer there, and there was a stranger sitting behind the service desk.

He walked over and asked, "Where was the front desk last night?"

The service staff raised his head and gave Xia Yanzhen a standard smile: "Hello, do you need any help?"

“Where is the guy who registered me last night?”

"You mean No. 8? He and I have switched shifts. I am No. 9. Do you need any help?" Compared to the real No. 8 who looks more humane, this No. 9 has a somewhat mechanical feel. .

The waiter is like "Teacher Luo, don't be like this".

"Yes, it's No. 8. Where did he go?"

"It's probably time to go back to the staff dormitory to rest." No. 9 said.

"Where is the staff dormitory?"

"Hello, only hotel staff can enter the staff dormitory. Guests are not allowed in." No. 9 said with a smile, "By the way, guest, do you have your room card with you?"

Xia Yanzhen took out the room card but did not hand it over.

"It's like this. According to hotel regulations, guests can only stay in the same room for one night, so I need to change a room for you." No. 9 explained the reason.

"Is there such a rule?" Xia Yanzhen picked up the check-in rules on the reception desk, "I didn't see it on it."

"This is only part of it. Please wait a moment while I look at the other house rules." No. 9 started rummaging around.

"Let's book a room first." Xia Yanzhen said, putting down the room card.

"Okay." No. 9 took the room card and stuffed it back into the "ATM" slot at the service desk.

The socket swallowed the room card.

No. 9 operated on the computer twice and took out another room card and gave it to Xia Yanzhen: "Hello, this is your room card."

Xia Yanzhen took it and saw the number 403 on it.

"Why not 310?"

"Hello, it's like this. According to the hotel's regulations, guests cannot stay on the same floor consecutively. They need to wait five days before they can stay again." No. 9.

"Five days?" Xia Yan really calculated.

The seven days of the mission are seven days and seven nights, and there will be no discounts - there may be discounts in the evening, based on the grandfather clock time.

It is also possible that it will be done according to the normal time.

If it's the former, according to hotel regulations, a room can only be stayed for one night, and then it will take five days for the same floor to "cool down."

Take Xia Yanzhen himself as an example.

I stayed in 301 on the first night, 403 on the second night, on the fifth floor on the third night, on the eighth floor on the fourth night, and on the ninth floor on the fifth night - because the sixth and seventh floors are not guest room floors.

By the sixth night, Xia Yan really had no place to stay.

On the last night, he could live back on the third floor.

In seven days of survival, there must be one night when there are no rooms available.

Also, from what I saw last night, there weren’t that many empty rooms in the hotel rooms.

The third floor is okay, but the number of empty rooms continues to decrease as you go up.

In other words, even if it is not the sixth night, some people will face the problem of being unable to check in.

What will happen if there are no rooms available after twelve o'clock in the evening?

I want to try to get into the room as much as possible without violating the hotel rules.

Reducing the number of guests became the only option.

All I can say is that the confrontational killing scenes make sense.

Before discovering this "rule", Xia Yanzhen reduced the nine Dream Apostles to seven.

It was a hit by mistake.

"Help me get a room for the next few days." Xia Yanzhen said after putting away the room card.

No. 9 smiled and refused: "That's right. According to regulations, only one room can be opened per day. You can renew and open a room after seven o'clock tomorrow morning."

"It's a rule again, what about other house rules?" Xia Yanzhen asked.

"Please wait a moment." No. 9 searched among the piles of documents and books at the service desk, but couldn't find it.

He left the lobby and headed toward the back.

Xia Yanzhen followed and came to the staff area at the back. No. 9 stopped and said to Xia Yanzhen, "I'm sorry, sir, this is the staff area. Please wait a moment."

"Okay." Xia Yanzhen nodded.

But there was no intention of stopping, and he followed No. 9 a few steps forward.

"This guest..." No. 9 turned around and looked at Xia Yanzhen, "Please do not enter the employee area."

"What will happen if you enter?"

"It would be against hotel regulations." No. 9 smiled.

The smile on his face began to become fake and stiff.

"What will happen if you violate the rules?" Xia Yanzhen took a step forward and stared at No. 9.

No. 9 wore a stiff smile: "If you violate the hotel's rules, you will no longer be a guest."

"What will happen if you are not a guest? For example?"

"For example, I'm actually very hungry." No. 9 approached Xia Yanzhen's ear and whispered softly.

His mouth opened, and the originally flat teeth turned into sharp jagged teeth at some point.

Without taking this bite, No. 9 continued: "I'm going to pack you into the dining area."

Service Personnel Handbook, Article 10—

If you feel hungry, it is important to remember that guests and other hotel employees are not food. Food is only found in the staff cafeteria and is not allowed to be eaten anywhere else! !

No. 9 is still following the rules of the manual.

But Xia Yanzhen doesn’t need it!

As No. 9 finished speaking, a hand was already on his face.

Xia Yanzhen grabbed No. 9's head and pointed it toward the wall next to him.

A hole was made in the wall, and No. 9's head completely sunk into it.

"Let me see what the consequences will be if you violate the rules!" Xia Yanzhen began to exert force on the palm of his hand holding No. 9's head.

The floor cooling time was five days, which was correct at first, but when I finished writing and revising it, I got confused and changed it to six days, which made me stupid - I even calculated it several times.

Now it's changed back.
