Li Rui was slightly surprised. He pondered for a while and said, "Could it be that Director Bai went to my room to check on the cleanliness?" After saying that, he also felt that something was wrong. If Bai Xiaojuan wanted to check on the cleanliness, she would definitely go during the day. She was working during the day and the light was good. Why would she go at night?
Sure enough, Xia Yan also said, "It shouldn't be. She never checks on the cleanliness of the rooms in the hostel. Unless the hostel is doing a thorough cleaning or the leaders of the province or city are coming to stay, she has never checked on any of the rooms. She is also rarely in the hostel. Most of the time, she is in her own department. You might not know, but she is the deputy director of the government office in charge of official reception. She is only in charge of receiving the director. "
Li Rui had some understanding of Bai Xiaojuan, but he was even more puzzled. He muttered to himself, "Then why did she suddenly go to my room?"
Xia Yan shook her head with an innocent expression and said, "I don't know."
Li Rui couldn't figure it out for the time being. He decided to go back to his room and take a look. He smiled and asked the beautiful lobby manager in front of him, "Why did you think of telling me this? Shouldn't you be siding with your director? "
It was a simple question, but it made Xia Yan embarrassed. Her face was red, her eyes were squinted, and her hands were clasped together. She was very uneasy. Her lips moved, but she couldn't say a word.
Li Rui didn't want to ask for an answer. He smiled and said, "No matter what, I still want to thank you. This is indeed an important situation for me."
Xia Yan hurriedly waved her hand and said, "You're welcome. This is what I should do."
Li Rui said, "Okay, let's talk again when we have time. I'll go back and take a look first. Goodbye." He smiled at her and turned to walk out of the building.
Xia Yan watched as he disappeared around the corner. She looked left and right, but didn't see anyone. Only then did she heave a sigh of relief.
Back in room 206, Li Rui hung up his briefcase and changed into slippers. He then started to check the room from the outside to the inside, and from the top to the bottom. He carefully checked every corner of the room. He wanted to see if Bai Xiaojuan did anything last night.
He couldn't figure out the purpose of Bai Xiaojuan's visit last night, but no matter how he looked at it, he felt that Bai Xiaojuan's actions were malicious. Could breaking into a private residence at night be considered good intentions? Although his room belonged to the guest house, and his room key was at the front desk, allowing the cleaner to enter and leave the room as she pleased, that was the authority of the cleaner. Even though Bai Xiaojuan was the director of the guest house, she had no authority to do so.
Another thing worth noting was that Bai Xiaojuan had chosen to go on a Saturday night. Could it be that she had found out that he was going back to the city on the weekend and wasn't staying in the guest house? That was why she had sneaked into his room. Moreover, it was effective to avoid the attendants and guests of the institute at night. Thinking about it this way, her intentions were even more unkind.
Li Rui deduced that Bai Xiaojuan was up to no good. Coupled with what had happened to him and his friends in the past few years, he finally concluded that Bai Xiaojuan might have done something to the room. That was why it was necessary to take great pains to check it carefully.
In fact, other than doing something to the room, Bai Xiaojuan had nothing else to do. Steal documents? Let's not talk about what Bai Xiaojuan could do to steal them. Li Rui had just come to work in Shuanghe and hadn't come into contact with any important official business. There were no important or even confidential documents in the guest house. Even if Bai Xiaojuan took the risk to enter his room, she wouldn't be able to steal any important documents. Check the traces of his private life? Please, Li Rui, as a deputy county magistrate, lived in a guest house with a prominent location. Even if he wanted to, he wouldn't have the guts to do so. Even if he wanted to, he would run outside to find a hidden place. Bai Xiaojuan must be well aware of this. Naturally, she wouldn't have such thoughts.
"Hmm? Why did the color change? "
After checking and checking, Li Rui finally checked the small table under the LCD TV. On the table, there was a set-top box that matched the TV. Suddenly, he found that the set-top box had turned black. In his memory, this set-top box was white. However, he only had a vague memory, so he couldn't be 100% sure.
"Uh, should I ask Xia Yan to come over and confirm with her?"
Previously, Li Rui didn't trust any of the staff in the guest house. However, just now, Xia Yan took the initiative to reveal that Bai Xiaojuan had secretly broken into his room. This made him immediately trust her. Although it wasn't 100% trust, currently, in the guest house, he trusted Xia Yan the most. He could only ask her for confirmation. If he randomly asked a staff member, and the staff happened to be Bai Xiaojuan's trusted subordinate, this matter might spread to Bai Xiaojuan's ears. He didn't want to act rashly and alert the enemy without any countermeasures.
"Forget it. I won't ask Xia Yan for confirmation first. If there's no problem with this set-top box, wouldn't it seem that I'm making a fuss over nothing? Or should I carefully check this set-top box to see if there's any mechanism or abnormality? "
Li Rui temporarily gave up the idea of asking Xia Yan for confirmation. He picked up the set-top box and looked at it carefully. He found that the front of the box was no different from most set-top boxes. There were four small lights, such as a power display light and a data signal reception light, located in their respective light holes. Other than that, there were no other functions. Now, there were two lights on. Looking at the symbols, one was a power display light and the other was a data signal light, indicating that the set-top box was working, but the TV was not turned on.
Li Rui checked the front of the box and didn't find anything strange. When he was about to turn the box to check the top, back, and side, he suddenly found that the leftmost of the four small lights at the front was obviously beyond the area where the display light was located. That area was surrounded by an oblong indentation line as the display function area. The leftmost small light was outside the oval, and there were no symbols or symbols below it. It was extremely abrupt and strange. But then again, if he didn't take the set-top box in front of him, he wouldn't have found this anomaly because the light hole was very small and the oval indentation line was not obvious.
After discovering this, Li Ruixin's heart sped up. Just in case, he pressed the power button of the set-top box to turn off the power. Then, he looked at the leftmost small light and found that the surface of the light hole was like glass. It was dark and layered inside. At first glance, it looked like a common display light, but in fact, it was more like a mobile phone camera with a focus adjustment function.
"If there's a problem, it's here!"
Li Rui put down the set-top box and walked to the bedside table. He picked up the landline and called the front desk, asking them to help call the lobby manager, Xia Yan, up.
After waiting for less than two minutes, there was a knock on the door. Li Rui said, "The door isn't closed. Come in."
The door opened, and a beautiful lobby manager dressed in a suit walked in from the outside. For some reason, Li Rui didn't feel anything when he saw her before, but now that he saw her, he had a good impression of her. He also felt that she was beautiful, but now was obviously not a good time to admire a beauty.
"Manager Xia, come over and take a look. Is there anything wrong with the set-top box?"
Xia Yan walked to the small table and looked down at the black set-top box. She frowned and said, "Hey, why is this black?"
Li Ruixin was shocked. He said, "All the set-top boxes in the guest house are white, right?"
Xia Yan nodded. She was still very curious about the color of the set-top box. She said, "No, before you moved in, I received a notice to arrange this room for you. At that time, the set-top box was still white. Why is it suddenly black? Is the original one broken, and this is a new one? But it's still not right. I didn't see anyone from the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television come over to fix it … "
Li Rui laughed and whispered, "This might be the masterpiece of your director."
He shouldn't have said this to Xia Yan, because it might let her know about his conflict with Bai Xiaojuan and involve her in this matter. But thinking about it, Xia Yan was no longer an outsider. At least she was "on" his side, so there was nothing that he couldn't say to her.
"Ah?" Xia Yan was dumbfounded. After a while, she came back to her senses. She looked back and saw that the door was closed, but she still whispered, "You're saying that Director Bai changed this?"
Li Rui said, "Yes, and she changed it when she came to my room last night."
Xia Yan couldn't understand and asked stupidly, "But why did she change this set-top box for you? Is the original one broken? "
Li Rui laughed. Just as he was about to tell her that there might be a hidden camera in the set-top box, the phone in his trouser pocket suddenly rang. He had to take out his phone to answer the call.
"Hey, why is it this girl?"
Seeing the name of the caller, Li Rui was surprised and happy. This was a busy person. Why did she suddenly have time to contact him today? He quickly pressed the answer button.
Xia Yan saw that he was on the phone and walked to the side to avoid arousing suspicion.
"You're a deputy county magistrate in Shuanghe, right? Are you free now? Come out and treat me to a meal. I'm in Shuanghe County. "
A young woman's voice sounded from the other end. Although the tone was not polite, Li Rui was happy from the bottom of his heart. He smiled and said, "Captain Duan, why did you suddenly come to Shuanghe? Where did the wind blow you from? "
"Cut the crap and come out quickly. I'm in a white Toyota next to the big willow tree on Dongguan Street. You have ten minutes to get here! Otherwise, I'll blow your head off! "
