Chapter 202 Missing Person Notice (XI)
"Xu Lin knows the local dialect?" Qiao Yuan keenly captured this important information.
You know, according to the information, Xu Lin has been living in another city since he was a child. Could it be that the other party's language nerves are highly developed, so he was able to learn this language in such a short time?
Fei: “I just feel similar.”
She paused and added, "I asked, and according to the old couple, Xu Lin was in good spirits at that time and even greeted them."
Qiao Yuan's eyes lit up: "Great, this news is also very useful."
Fei also investigated this point, which made Qiao Yuan completely rule out the idea that Xu Lin was a language genius. After all, when 312 said that Xu Lin's mental state was abnormal, he had just moved into the room. And the old couple in 307 probably met Fei within the first one or two days of moving in, and they might not even have been exposed to the language environment.
Therefore, Qiao Yuan is thinking about another possibility——
Xu Lin had lived in this city before.
It is also an important question why the private detective did not give the information in the file. After all, this involves Xu Lin's interpersonal relationships in this world, which may be related to her disappearance. And the private detective seems to be so eager to find Xu Lin that he should not miss this important news.
Qiao Yuan quickly took out his cell phone, sent his questions to the private detective, and waited patiently for the other party's reply.
Here, Andre and Aning finally finished talking to each other from the heart. Aning seemed to realize that it was soon time to separate again, and her expression became reluctant again.
At this moment, a gentle female voice sounded: "Excuse me, are you staff?"
Qiao Yuan and others were instantly attracted by the other party's voice and looked in the direction where the female voice came from.
What came into view was a tall woman, with the lace ribbon of her lace hat wrapped around her hair and tied at the bottom of her swan-like neck. Her limbs were also slender and stretched, and her posture looked like a ballet dancer.
When she saw Qiao Yuan and the others nod, she seemed to finally breathe a sigh of relief: "Great, I'm the resident of room 303, and I'm going to check out today."
"It's just that I bought a lot of things these days, and I can't move them downstairs by myself. Can you help me? It's on this floor. I'll give you a tip."
The woman's face now showed a cautious look, as if she was afraid of being rejected.
Sheng Guiye was transferred to the front desk, and working in the same group with him was Yan Shen.
Even Sheng Guiye, who had only recently started to pay attention to the forum because of Qiao Yuan's desire and had not paid much attention to it, had learned about him from the various posts. He knew that he was the person who had experienced the most dungeons in the game. Some people conservatively estimated that he had experienced three digits, far surpassing the second place by a large margin.
However, although Yan Shen has many suitors, Sheng Guiye is not one of them. After all, he already has someone he really wants to follow.
Before this instance, Yan Shen was just a familiar name to him, and he would not pay much attention to him even if he met him. However, in this instance, coupled with the other party's concerned attitude towards Qiao Yuan, he subconsciously paid attention to Yan Shen's every move.
Sheng Guiye could feel that Yan Shen was also watching him out of the corner of his eye. His intuition told him that it was because of Qiao Yuan. In layman's terms, he hated the whole thing.
But where does this hatred come from?
Sheng Guiye was sure that the enemy and Qiao Yuan did not become enemies in the dungeon . After all, he had read many posts about Qiao Yuan in the forum before. If there were any conflicts between the two, there would definitely be viewers in the live broadcast room who mentioned it. However, it seemed impossible in the real world. After all, Qiao Yuan looked so unfamiliar with the enemy, it didn't seem like they knew each other...
Although he was full of doubts, Sheng Guiye still remembered what Qiao Yuan said, so he didn't ask directly. But what Sheng Guiye didn't expect was that the first one who couldn't hold back was the other party.
At this time, Sheng Guiye was processing the check-out procedures for Room 303, which was a twin room.
A young man who looked young, with messy hair from sleeping, was laughing and reminiscing about the past few days' journey with his classmates. When they talked about the interesting parts, they laughed as if no one was around.
Because he noticed that the other party was Room 303, the resident who lived next door to Xu Lin before he disappeared, Sheng Guiye wanted to ask and get some information. However, the two young men chatted as if they were alone, and Sheng Guiye spent a lot of effort to finally join the conversation.
What disappointed him was that the two young men were camping enthusiasts and therefore spent most of their time in the campsite and very little time in the hotel. As a result, they had never even seen Xu Lin and had no impression of this person, let alone contact with him.
After making sure that the two young men were not lying, Sheng Guiye stopped asking and watched them leave.
It was time for a break. Sheng Guiye was about to get up when he heard another cold but questioning voice: "What is your relationship with Qiao Yuan?"
Sheng Guiye turned his head and looked at the person who spoke.
In just a few seconds, Yan Shen's brows had already revealed impatience, but the other party seemed to be persistent in wanting an answer. So when he saw Sheng Guiye didn't say anything, he asked again.
Sheng Guiye didn't rush to answer, but just asked: "Why are you asking this?"
The other party brought up the topic first, so his response didn't count as a violation of his promise to Qiao Yuan.
Yan Shen: "You just need to answer my questions."
However, Sheng Guiye had no intention of giving in at all, and was obviously determined to let Yan Shen answer first.
Although it happened in Sheng Guiye's live broadcast room, the conversation between Sheng Guiye and Yan Shen spread quickly as if it had wings, and some people even moved it to the forum.
This naturally spread to Qiao Yuan's live broadcast room——
[Breaking news, Sheng Guiye and Yan Shen sat on stage, Yan Shen pressed him about his relationship with Qiao Yuan, but Sheng was evasive]
【? ? ?】
[! Sorry, this title, which media are you from? It sounds so familiar]
[It even feels like the entertainment section]
[Is this true? My CPU is about to burn out]
[Sorry, I have a professional disease, but that's what I mean. This is indeed true, I saw it on the forum]
Some people also paid attention to the key point -
[So I am the only one who is curious about why Yan Shen asked Sheng Guiye about his relationship with Qiao Yuan]
[I don’t know. Mr. Sheng also asked.]
[It seems that Yan Shen really doesn’t look at trending searches, so he doesn’t know that the relationship between Qiao Yuan and Sheng Guiye is just a simple relationship between pursuer and pursued]
[It is also possible that after watching it, I knew that there was something wrong between the two. After all, I think Qiao Yuan and Sheng Guiye are quite normal in this copy. It is all because I have to look at them with tinted glasses.]
[Colored glasses hahahahaha]
[Yan Shen’s live broadcast room or the entire forum has exploded]
[This makes it even more terrifying when you think about it. After all, does this mean that Yan Shen has been paying attention to them before? ]
[Ah? Ah? Are you okay, Iron? The two of them were trending at the time, and anyone who took a look at Weibo would know about it. How can this be related to the previous attention? ]
[But if you are just following my general concern, why are you asking here now?]
[This... Could it be that Yan Shen is also gossipy? But gossiping is also human nature.]
[But Yan Shen has always been a god in my heart, and the content of this gossip is not quite right]
[So the brother or sister mentioned earlier was not actually mistaken, Yan Shen was indeed looking at Sister Qiao at that time]
[Then those who said that Yan Shen didn’t even read Qiao Yuan’s words must have had their faces swollen.]
[Wait, let’s think positively . Maybe God Yan saw Sister Qiao’s talent and that’s why he has been paying close attention to her…]
[srds, why do you have to investigate people's relationship status? Does being single or not affect the chance of passing the level?]
[It is also possible that Yan Shen simply hates couples? 】
[The way this question is asked is too complicated.]
…
There was a lot of discussion in the comments, but no one could convince anyone else. Just then, a comment finally put an end to the dispute temporarily:
[So Yan Shen answered Sheng Guiye’s question?]
[Ah? Didn't that person say that Mr. Sheng was evasive before? Why is he suddenly speaking out now? ]
[I almost forgot about this]
[Family members, I have already rushed to Sheng Guiye’s live broadcast room. Please wait for my good news.]
[Can I still catch up if I go now? Then I will go too]
[No, am I the only one who saw what happened in the forum and found out that Sheng Guiye was processing the check-out application for Room 303 at that time? Then who is the woman who found Qiao Yuan and the others and claimed to be the owner of Room 303? ]
【ah?】
Andre had not forgotten the mission after all. When he heard the woman call out the room number of 303, he reacted instantly, realized that it was someone who lived near Xu Lin, and immediately agreed.
The woman seemed to be relieved: "That's great!"
Then he kept saying thank you, and it seemed that he was really grateful to them.
Qiao Yuan thought about it and agreed.
The woman walked in front, her skirt blooming into black waves at her feet like a lotus with every step, and finally the black waves stopped in front of a door.
The woman took out her key and opened the door, saying, "It's right here."
"Because I'm from another place, and it's not easy for me to go on a trip, I wanted to bring some souvenirs as gifts for my relatives, but I didn't expect to buy too much..."
As she spoke, she sighed in distress.
After opening the door, the woman walked into the room first , followed by the other four.
Although the woman said that the room was a bit messy, in fact, her room was very tidy. A large single bed was placed in the middle, and there was not a single wrinkle on the quilt. Moreover, the other party seemed to have sprayed perfume, and the whole room was filled with a faint fragrance, which made people's originally tense heartstrings subconsciously relax.
Andre glanced around the room and his eyes fell on a few packages near the bedside: "Is it there?"
The woman followed his gaze and nodded quickly: "Yes, but there is no rush. Do you want to take a break and drink some water first, and then we can start?"
Andre's eyes lit up: "Okay."
While answering the woman's questions, he winked at other people. His meaning was obvious: he wanted to take this opportunity to ask the woman whether he could get the information he wanted.
Aning was the first to respond and sat next to Andre. Fei hesitated for a moment and subconsciously looked at Qiao Yuan.
She finally sat down only after Qiao Yuan sat down shortly afterwards.
The woman stood up and poured water on the table nearby.
The other party's thoughtfulness made Andre and Aning have a better impression of the woman in front of them, and also made Andre feel that the subsequent inquiries would not be too difficult.
He followed the woman with his eyes, and finally asked, "Excuse me, do you know the previous resident of Room 305?"
"Room 305?" The woman seemed to be lost in thought. After a while, she nodded and said, "I know him."
"That little girl, right? I met her a few times before and said hello. But I haven't seen her since then. I think she moved away."
Her words made the other people's eyes light up. It seemed that the woman in front of them also knew something.
Andre: "Then...is there anything strange about her?"
Noticing the change in the woman's expression, Andre quickly added, "It's just that... other guests said she looked a little strange, and she caused trouble for some guests."
"Our hotel is deeply sorry for this, so we want to give some compensation to the disturbed guests. If you have any, I can help you apply. And you can also leave an address, and we will send the gift to it later..."
Of course, Andre made this up on the spot. After all, Manager Tang is very stingy, so how could he be willing to give out benefits?
But he was not worried about being exposed. Not to mention that the woman was about to move out, he could use the excuse that the compensation period was very long and most people would have forgotten about it. Even if the woman remembered, they would have already left the instance by then, so what happened afterwards naturally did not matter to him.
After hearing this, the woman was delighted: "Ah, the hotel's service is so good."
"But she didn't affect me much..."
