The furnishings of this room looked a bit like the room Su Qiao stayed in on the night she asked me for the "unspoken rules" near film city.
The double bed was placed in the most prominent position with orange bedside lamps on both sides. The bathroom was completely made of frosted glass, so people outside could definitely see the outline if they showered inside.
A freezer that was commonly seen in supermarkets was placed opposite the double bed. It was filled with all sorts of drinks. It seemed very hospitable at first glance, but if you couldn't help it, you would have to pay a much more expensive price than outside.
On the cabinet of drawers next to the freezer, there was an electric kettle that could be used to boil water. Next to it was a neat row of condoms that ranged from Durex to Okamoto. But just like the drinks in the freezer, you had to pay extra to use them.
The class leader pretended not to see the incongruous items on the cabinet of drawers. She quickly scanned the rest of room 214 with her sharp eyes and the concentration of a crime scene.
There was a large locust tree outside the window. Its thick branches were very lush and it was also very close to the window. It even broke half of the glass on a windy day.
Up until now, the glass hasn't been repaired yet. I'm afraid the front desk knew this, so they purposely rented this room to us. How cunning.
The class leader first opened the window, stuck half of her body out, and looked at the window next door, hoping to find some clues.
Although we were only on the second floor, I didn't dare to imitate the class leader's movements since I have acrophobia. I could only pay attention to the class leader's balance from behind. If she made any mistakes, I would jump up and grab her.
Her long hair was draped over her shoulders and matched with her snow-white shirt. The upper half of her body was sticking out of the window, which made her jeans tighter around her legs. It inadvertently outlined the alluring curves of her butt.
I felt ashamed that the class leader, who was only focused on finding her classmates, was looking at her with a perverted gaze. Fortunately, the class leader quickly retracted her body from the window.
"The reflection of the sunlight is too strong, I can't see clearly."
With a bit of distress, the class leader put her long hair back to its original position.
"That's why I said, all I have to do is move a stool behind the peephole and wait for Gong CaiCai or Zhuang Ni to appear."
As I spoke, I pulled a soft chair towards the door.
The class leader rushed to sit on the soft chair first, planning to be the first to do duty.
The class leader squinted one eye and put the other eye on the peephole. She concentrated on the movement outside.
"Ye Lin, are you sure? If they want to leave the hotel, they have to pass by our door? "
"As long as they are indeed in those three suspicious rooms …"
Then the class leader stopped talking. She probably thought optimistically that Gong CaiCai and Zhuang Ni would immediately come out of their room and be caught by us.
Even if that's the case, I don't think the class leader has enough evidence to arrest him.
Two girls resting together in a hotel room, there was nothing unusual about that, was there? Even if Zhuang Ni was a lesbian, could the class leader still yell: "No lesbians! I'm going to tell your parents! "
Moreover, Zhuang Ni was not easy to deal with no matter when or where.
First of all, if Zhuang Ni and Gong CaiCai were really lesbians, then Gong CaiCai would definitely panic when she heard the class leader shout their names in the hallway. But Zhuang Ni would not easily let the cat out of the bag. She would probably cover Gong CaiCai's mouth to prevent her from making a sound.
Then, they would sneak up behind the door and watch us through the peephole. When they saw that we didn't come out of room 214, they would immediately realize that it was a trap. As soon as they showed their heads, we would run out and catch them red-handed.
So, the next step is a competition of patience.
I could bet that Zhuang Ni was also observing the movement in the hallway. As soon as she saw us leave room 214, she would take Gong CaiCai and leave at top speed. Then, it would depend on which side could afford to waste more time!
The class leader sat behind the door and watched for 20 minutes without moving. She did not notice any movement, which proved my speculation.
After I told the class leader my thoughts, she bit her lips.
"So, Zhuang Ni is fighting a protracted battle, right?"
The class leader looked at the time on her phone and set a timer.
"Ye Lin, from now on, we'll change shifts every 15 minutes, okay? I have to catch Zhuang Ni. "
I was on duty for the next fifteen minutes. First, I used my left eye, then my right eye. I played with my eyes for a long time, but I didn't see any suspicious figures passing by. Instead, there were a few people wearing heavy makeup and gold chains walking by.
During the time I was on duty, the class leader paced back and forth in the small space. Sometimes she would look out the window, sometimes she would sit on the edge of the bed and rest for a few minutes.
"Class leader, if you're bored, you can watch TV." I pointed to the remote control on the coffee table and said, "This room is rented until noon tomorrow, so it would be a waste if I don't watch it."
"That won't do, I didn't come to the hotel to play."
The class leader did not listen to my suggestion. At this moment, the alarm rang and she came to take over.
"Hmph, if you don't watch TV, then I will." I didn't ask for the class leader's opinion and directly turned on the TV. It coincidentally happened to be a sports channel that was playing highlights of the top ten NBA goals.
Since I was only following the class leader to 'help', the class leader couldn't really stop me from watching TV. The sound of the TV wouldn't affect the investigation outside anyway.
In the end, there was still no movement outside after 15 minutes. It seems like Zhuang Ni is really patient!
When it was my turn to be on duty again, the class leader saw that there was no progress. While she was secretly competing with Zhuang Ni, she also felt bored, so she used an electric kettle to boil a pot of water and poured it into a cup for me to drink.
The class leader wasn't interested in NBA programs, but she stood and drank while watching TV for a while. I felt like she wanted to change the channel, but she felt a bit embarrassed because she said she wasn't here to play.
"If you don't like watching basketball, then change the channel." I said considerately, but the class leader seemed to have been seen through. She turned her face away and didn't even watch the basketball.
I originally thought that no matter how patient Zhuang Ni was, she would make a move after an hour. I didn't expect her to hold on and not come out of her room for so long.
Did we think wrong? Zhuang Ni didn't even care that the class leader was right next to her. She and Gong CaiCai were having a lot of fun on the bed. But the class leader and I are staring at the peephole like idiots?
Both the class leader and I clearly thought of this possibility, but neither of us said anything. It was like we would admit we lost if we did.
After another hour and a half, the NBA program changed from 'Top 10 Goals' to 'Top 10 Fouls', but we still didn't make any new discoveries.
"Could there be a mistake?" The class leader said doubtfully, "Do they really have to pass through our room to leave? Is there another way? "
"There's no other way." I replied, "I looked carefully, the other side is a passageway for employees, and it's locked."
The class leader clearly felt that it would be stupid to continue monitoring us, but she wasn't good at showing her face in a special place like a hotel, so she didn't have any other good ideas.
"It'll be dinner time if we wait any longer." I said, "What do you want to eat? I can go downstairs and buy it. "
"Dinner?" The class leader held her chin and thought for a bit, "If Zhuang Ni and the others don't want to go downstairs, then they'll probably order takeout. Anyway, I have to continue monitoring you, you can buy something and come back. "
I nodded and went downstairs to buy 8 grams of meat patties and two bowls of millet congee. I came back in less than half an hour.
"Did anything happen?" I asked while putting food on the coffee table.
The class leader's shoulders drooped and she said dejectedly: "Nothing at all. If I knew this, I would have stopped Gong CaiCai before she entered."
I helped the class leader monitor us for a bit and let her eat first. She probably had a bad appetite because she was worried about Zhuang Ni and Gong CaiCai. If I knew this earlier, I wouldn't have bought so many meat patties.
After dinner time, the lights were turned on in the hallway, but the scene we were hoping for still did not play out.
"Something's wrong …" The class leader gave Gong CaiCai's mother a call, but the other party said Gong CaiCai was asked to stay for dinner by her classmates and would be back a bit later.
"In other words, they're still in their room." I analyzed, "Zhuang Ni might have prepared food in advance, or she might have taken some food from the freezer …"
I said as I pointed at the eight treasures congee in the freezer.
"Is there a need to go this far?" The class leader clenched her teeth, "What are she and Gong CaiCai doing in their room?"
The class leader suddenly received a text message.
"It's a text from Zhuang Ni." The class leader glanced at it and pointed the screen in front of me. I clearly saw the message: "It's summer vacation, don't worry about me and Gong CaiCai."
The class leader then called Zhuang Ni back, but she didn't pick up, so she could only send a message:
"Hurry up and let Gong CaiCai out. I won't forgive you if you hurt her. "
Zhuang Ni's reply came in less than ten seconds: "Class leader, your words hurt my heart, so I'll have to teach you a lesson."
"Lesson? You're saying you're going to teach me a lesson? "The class leader was furious. At this time, the lights in the room suddenly went out.
The class leader and I looked at each other in the darkness with the weak light coming through the peephole. We didn't understand why room 214 was completely dark when there was electricity in the hallway.
After a full minute, the lights came back on, and the magnetic card inserted on the right side of the door emitted a "beep ~ beep ~" alarm at this time.
I strangely took the card off and inserted it back. The alarm disappeared, but the door couldn't be opened.
"Damn it. The electronic door is broken. " I immediately called the front desk according to the emergency contact manual on the bedside table. As a result, the person on the other side said in a half-dead tone: The circuit suddenly broke down and the electrician is currently repairing it. Before it's fixed, the door to room 214 can't be opened no matter what. Please be patient and let us know if there's any news.
Damn it. Isn't this the same as the class leader and I being trapped in the room? Although we had just eaten dinner, we would have to sleep if we stayed any longer. Do you want us to squeeze into that double bed to sleep?!
