Chapter 286: Locust Tree Hotel 4
Chu Yian’s first reaction was that this person had a problem.
“Why are you looking for me to cooperate and not someone else? Look at the people who just got off the car; there are plenty more capable than me.”
Chu Yian didn’t want to scheme against her own kind in a game full of dangers, so she directly laid her cards on the table, her eyes becoming serious. “What is your purpose in approaching me?”
Li Mingzhu hadn’t expected the person who was willing to help her in the car to turn hostile so quickly.
But she really wanted to follow the person in front of her, because… “You… You are the strongest.”
“What?”
Why the sudden use of honorifics?
“My game item is to find the strongest player within a certain range. I used it as soon as I entered the game and saw so many people in the car. Among all the players in the car, you are the strongest.”
Li Mingzhu was unwilling to give up this strong ally she had just found. “Please, take me with you this round. I promise to share any information with you and will never be a burden.”
Chu Yian hadn’t expected to be latched onto as soon as she entered the game.
“What else do you have besides this ability?”
“I can also do a little bit of ventriloquism.”
Li Mingzhu explained, “It’s the special skill of imitating many sounds.”
Hiss—
Chu Yian looked at her following along and nodded, indicating that she understood.
The two of them thus entered the main entrance of the Locust Tree Hotel, where several receptionists stood, their faces adorned with professional smiles. “Welcome, esteemed test sleepers, please collect your Hotel manual and room key here.”
Chu Yian took a Hotel manual and then looked at the many more manuals in the receptionist’s hand. “Can we take an extra copy?”
“If you need it, you can collect it every day at 3 PM at the first-floor guest service center.”
Alright.
Chu Yian also felt that the other party couldn’t give her multiple copies. She glanced at Li Mingzhu, who was looking at her in confusion. “Read it through quickly first; it’s best if you can memorize it.”
Upon hearing this, Li Mingzhu became even more certain of her choice.
Wang Da Ni was indeed the strongest among these people. Following her would save her many detours.
[Dear test sleeper, welcome to the Locust Tree Hotel. We are committed to providing the highest quality service to every test sleeper. For your life and safety, please strictly adhere to the following requirements during your stay.]
[1. Please responsibly complete the relevant tasks of a test sleeper. If you fail to perform your duties even once during the five-day test sleep, we will consider it a breach of contract. Your contract with the Hotel will be terminated, and you will no longer be protected by the Hotel.]
[2. During your stay at the Hotel, all your activities are completely free. You may use Hotel facilities as you wish, but you must take care of them.]
[3. Food is served daily for breakfast from 7:00-9:00; lunch from 11:00-13:00; and dinner from 17:00-19:00. Outside of these times, the Hotel does not provide any other food or drink besides mineral water.]
[4. The Hotel has a total of 6 guest elevators…]
Chu Yian didn’t have time to look closely; the people behind her were also jogging in.
She quickly put away the manual and, taking Li Mingzhu, rushed to the front desk to get the room key.
“Are there any requirements for choosing a room?”
“Avoid the very first and last positions, avoid the 4th floor, and ideally, arrange for the 6th or 8th floor.”
Since the other party asked for requirements, Chu Yian stated them without hesitation.
The rooms at the very end of a Hotel were called “dangtou” in her hometown, meaning she wasn’t sure what it meant, but it wasn’t very auspicious. Also, “4” was unlucky. Chu Yian had encountered paper figures in the car earlier and instantly became superstitious.
Li Mingzhu quickly added, “Also, the two of us need to be close, preferably next door to each other.”
She was determined to stick with Chu Yian.
“Okay, your rooms are 8806 and 8808 respectively. Please keep them safe.”
Chu Yian took the room key and felt the numbers were particularly auspicious. She ignored the other players behind her and went straight upstairs. Li Mingzhu, however, followed behind her, glancing twice more at the Hotel entrance.
The Hotel manuals had seemed abundant just now, but now they were almost all distributed.
More people were still coming in, and she began to worry about whether there would be enough manuals.
However, the elevator door had already opened. Li Mingzhu followed Chu Yian inside, tightly holding onto what was likely the biggest ally this round. Just as she swiped her card and pressed the corresponding floor, she suddenly caught sight of a stern-faced, tall man stepping out of the elevator opposite them.
The moment the elevator door closed, she saw his indifferent gaze briefly flick in her direction.
He was so handsome!
