The woman's smile and her faint body fragrance filled his mind.
After thinking about it, he moved his hand between his legs. After a few minutes, as his body twitched, the waiter sighed comfortably.
It's all the shopkeeper's fault for not making any effort to give him a salary increase. Will it take him years and years to save enough money for his wife?
Sooner or later, I will become an old bachelor like the shopkeeper!
The waiter felt a little resentful when he thought of this.
At this moment, the sound of moving footsteps came to his ears.
The waiter's sleeping place was under the stairs. It was originally a storage room in the inn, but later a separate area was separated inside, which became a small place for him to spend the night.
The shopkeeper lives in Liyang and leaves every night, only to return when the store opens the next morning.
Because it is a room under the stairs and the decoration is relatively simple, there is almost no sound insulation. Any slight vibrations that occur upstairs will be clearly transmitted to this room.
The waiter is always alert when sleeping, and he needs to wait for travelers who want to stay in the hotel for the night. He also needs to listen to the movements upstairs at all times, so that he can appear at any time in case the guests need anything.
The inn was already extremely quiet, but the sound of footsteps was very obvious at this time.
There are no lights inside the inn at night. Only two red lanterns are lit at the gate to prove that the inn has rooms and to guide travelers on the road at night.
So it was pitch dark inside the inn.
Then there was the sound of the door opening. It should be the third room. Which two guests were in that room?
Then footsteps followed the corridor to the door of the fourth room.
"Dong dong dong."
The knock on the door was gentle.
"It's me." The man said softly.
The door opened.
The guest must have entered the house.
After a while, the door of the fourth room opened again, and footsteps were heard again.
The footsteps returned to the third room, and the door closed again.
When the waiter couldn't sleep, he would always pay attention to what was going on upstairs, and then make up scenes in his mind, paint the images of the guests in his mind, and then add love and hate according to his own judgment. The cliché drama of revenge.
Because of what happened after entering the room, it would be difficult for him to hear the room. This would give him enough room to imagine, and then he could fall asleep without realizing it by thinking about it.
The waiter thought this was quite interesting.
While he was still thinking, there was another noise from upstairs.
There was still the sound of the door opening, but this time it was the fifth room.
Isn't that the girl's room?
The waiter held his breath and concentrated, not daring to miss any details.
There were no footsteps.
Is the door just so open?
Just when the waiter finally couldn't help but go out to check, the door of the fifth house finally closed.
The waiter was wondering, what is this lady doing?
Just when he was wondering, the door of the fourth room was opened again.
The waiter was shocked.
Those seven guests were really restless.
Then there was the sound of the fourth room closing.
The inn became quiet again.
The waiter was thinking about what was going on upstairs, but suddenly he felt an overwhelming sleepiness coming over him, and he fell into a deep sleep.
Early the next morning, before it was fully light, he was awakened by the sounds of chaotic footsteps upstairs and hurriedly got up.
Why did I sleep so well last night? This is a new thing.
The waiter got dressed and came to the main hall. He saw four people sitting around the table, all looking solemn at this time.
The waiter put on a professional smile and said softly: "Dear guests, if you want to have breakfast, you have to wait a while. It's not yet time."
"Waiter, let me ask you, did you hear anything yesterday?" Qi Zhen felt moved when she saw the waiter and asked.
Others looked at him as well.
The waiter was a little frightened by the sight, and told him exactly what he heard last night.
What Qi Zhen and Li Qiang were most worried about happened, but they didn't expect it to happen so unexpectedly.
Lin Xiao disappeared, and so did Li San.
Yu Liang, who was originally in the same room as Lin Xiao, was now lying on the bed inside the room, sleeping like a pig.
Before dawn, Li Qiang had already gotten up and knocked on the doors of other teammates' rooms to tell everyone to get up and get ready to go on the road.
Li Qiang barely slept a wink that night, and the ominous premonition in his heart became more and more obvious.
He felt that it was not suitable to stay here for a long time and he had to leave as soon as possible. However, in order to take care of his teammates, he still did not choose to call everyone in the middle of the night.
He was afraid that his sudden behavior would start certain plots in advance and catch the team off guard.
In the innermost room, Meng Ran was more alert than Jiang Yan because of his profession. When he heard the voice of the captain, he replied and knew.
Then in the third room, Yu Liang and Lin Xiao made no movement.
In the fourth room, Li San made no movement.
Li Qiang immediately felt that something was wrong.
At this time, Jiang Yan, Meng Ran, and Qi Zhen had already walked out of the house.
Li Qiang didn't care about anything else and immediately broke in. As a result, he discovered the situation in front of him.
What the four people needed at this time was not to panic. At Qi Zhen's suggestion, the four people came to the hall, sat around the table, and began to analyze what might happen.
None of the four people heard any unusual movement last night. Even Li Qiang, who had barely slept a night, didn't hear any movement.
Yu Liang, the only one who might know the whole story, was sleeping like a pig in the room on the second floor and couldn't be woken up at all.
Li Qiang took out a cigarette from nowhere, lit it and smoked it one after another.
This is the second time Jiang Yan has seen him smoke since Plants vs. Zombies. Every time it comes to this time, it means that the anxiety in Li Qiang's heart has reached a point where it has nothing to add and must rely on nicotine to relieve it.
Without clues, there is no way to analyze it.
At this moment, the waiter came out of the room.
Everyone seemed to have seen hope at this time, and they couldn't take their eyes off the waiter.
Qi Zhen crossed her chest with her left hand, rested the elbow of her right hand on her left arm, and tapped her temple with her index and middle fingers.
"That is to say, yesterday the waiter heard someone from the third room knocking on the door of the fourth room. After entering, he didn't know what happened. Then he returned to the third room again, and then the fifth room. The door of the fourth room opened and closed, and then you fell asleep, right?" Qi Zhen summarized the waiter's words and asked.
"Yes, yes, that's it." The waiter nodded and said.
Qi Zhen signaled the waiter to go ahead and leave them alone, and then Qi Zhen asked a few questions.
"Let's assume that it was Lin Xiao who came out of the room. What was he doing to find Li San?"
All three people shook their heads to express their ignorance.
"Then if we say it was Yu Liang who came out of the room, then what did he do with Li San?"
"Whoever it was, what did they say in the room?"
"Then what happened after you returned to the room?"
"Why can't Yu Liang wake up?"
"How did two people disappear without anyone noticing?"
There are too few clues to analyze at all.
For the first time, Qi Zhen felt a little frustrated with her abilities.
While the four people were silent, there was a noise from upstairs.
"Why didn't you call me? What happened?" Yu Liang's voice came from the corridor on the second floor.
The four people rushed to the second floor almost instantly and came to Yu Liang.
Yu Liang felt a sudden change in his heart when he saw the four of them looking like they were facing a formidable enemy.
"Why do you think I'm doing this? Where are Li San and Lin Xiao?" Yu Liang asked in confusion.
"Tell me exactly what happened last night." Li Qiang didn't have time to talk nonsense with him, and it was rare for him to show his strong side.
Seeing the captain's seriousness, Yu Liang didn't dare to fight anymore, and hurriedly told his teammates everything about last night.
In the middle of the night, Yu Liang and Lin Xiao couldn't sleep and started bickering every day.
These two people can never live happily together.
Lin Xiao said that if you cover my mouth with your stinky hand again next time, I will give you a discount.
Yu Liang said that you will never be able to catch up with me in this life, so it’s not certain who gets a discount.
Lin Xiao said, "I finally understand why Sister Yanzi is always clamoring to kill you. If it comes to me, I want to kill you too."
This sentence evoked some unspeakable hidden pain in Yu's conscience, and made him completely angry.
Yu Liang sat up and asked Lin Xiao, "Is there something wrong with you today? Is there something wrong with you?"
Lin Xiao also stood up and walked to the door without saying anything.
Yu Liang asked what you were doing.
Lin Xiao said that if I change rooms with Li San, I will save my anger with you.
Yu Liang said nothing.
After a while, Li San came back.
Ask Yu Liang what happened to you two?
Yu Liang said he didn't know what happened to Lin Xiao today, and it was as if he had taken a shot after he came back.
Li San said: You two are just restless, go to bed quickly, we have to go on the road tomorrow.
Then Yu Liang fell asleep.
When he woke up again, Li San had disappeared, and then he saw Qi Zhen and four people sitting together from the second floor.
Then Li Qiang told Yu Liang about the disappearance of Lin Xiao and Li San.
"Impossible, I sleep very lightly!" Yu Liang shook his head in disbelief.
"Actually, the captain has been shaking your body just now, and you didn't react at all." Jiang Yan said calmly from the side.
"In other words, the first set of footsteps heard by the waiter last night was actually Lin Xiao and Li San changing rooms." Qi Zhen ignored the two's bettle and said softly.
"What do you think?" Li Qiang asked.
"That should make sense." Qi Zhen said.
"Don't show off." Yu Liang reminded.
"The reason why you sleep so hard is not because your sleeping habits have changed, but because someone else did it to you." Qi Zhen said.
"You mean, Li San?" Li Qiang asked.
Qi Zhen nodded.
Apart from Li San, only Qi Zhen knew how powerful the skill of the Sunflower Acupuncture Hand that he exchanged for Li San was.
There are countless acupuncture points on each person's body, and many different effects can be produced by hitting different combinations of acupoints. The body-fixing effect is only the most basic of them.
In other words, Li San used the Sunflower Acupuncture Skill on Yu Liang after he fell asleep, which caused Yu Liang to sleep until now without feeling anything.
Because the skill effect time has not yet arrived.
"But why did he do this?" Yu Liang asked doubtfully.
"Let's think about it again, what happened to the second wave of footsteps heard by the waiter." Qi Zhen gradually got an idea in her mind and reminded everyone.
"We assume that Lin Xiao purposely quarreled with you from the beginning to achieve the purpose of changing rooms with Li San, then what is his purpose of living in a single room by himself?" Qi Zhen asked.
"You mean..." Meng Ran said.
"I guess his purpose is to get close to the woman in the next room!" Qi Zhen said.
