Quick Travel: After the European Emperor can sign in

Chapter 282 Hell’s Daily Life 4 (Page 12)

I originally wanted to go straight downstairs to my room, but I paused when I walked to the bar, and finally walked in to see if there was anything missing that I could pick up.

I scanned the bar with my mental power and found seven or eight cards in the entire bar, all in the hands of the guests. They curiously discussed with each other. No one threw the cards away, but put them properly in their pockets.

They are not stupid either. Even if they don't see anything special about these cards, they will treat such a bizarre scene with caution.

"Sure enough, no one is a fool."

Yuan Xi, who wanted to pick up the leaks, no longer had any expectations for the trash can. Once midnight passes, these cards will come into play, and it will be even harder to pick up the missing cards by then.

Even so, while waiting for the elevator, he subconsciously glanced at the trash can next to him with a subtle expression on his face.

He took back what he just said, there are still fools in this world.

There is a transportation card in the trash can, with a bus drawn on it, and it is a large transportation vehicle. There is an impression in the memory of the original owner of this card. Once you start using it, a countdown will appear. The timeliness is one month.

In the memory of the original owner, this kind of transportation card was very popular. In addition to rushing, it could also serve as a temporary shelter. It was especially crucial for many people who did not have an asylum card and could not squeeze into the shelter area. In the early days, many people relied on it to survive. If what you pick up is a transportation card such as a bicycle, emmm... come on.

Throwing it directly into the system space, Yuan Xi placed it in a large box alone so that it could still be used after washing. After really picking up one in the trash can, he began to think about whether to go out of the hotel and pick up "trash" from the trash cans on the street.

but……

Do you lack those cards?

Would you die without those cards?

Is it worth sacrificing your sleep time?

It was almost half past ten, and it was time for him to go to bed.

Go to bed early and get up early for good health.

After asking himself, Yuan Xi gave up without much thought, yawned, opened the door and entered the house, brushed his teeth, washed his face, turned off the light and went to bed, covered with a quilt and everything was worry-free.

Just in case, before going to bed, he used the asylum card he just picked up at night to cover the house where he lived to ensure that no blind ghosts would come to disturb him in the middle of the night.

He picked up five asylum cards tonight, not counting those picked up by Su Qianyu. Yuan Xi even suspected that all the asylum cards within a radius of one mile were sent by Tiandao.

What about the limited quantity promised?

The validity of an asylum card is ten years, which is the longest period of use among all cards. This also shows that it is impossible for heaven to protect humans forever. If we do not want to make progress and live a stable life hiding in the shelter, humans will sooner or later become food for the ghosts.

As Yuan Xi fell into a deep sleep, the clock on the wall passed by minute by second.

At twelve o'clock in the evening, in the dead of night, the lights in the lobby on the first floor of the Haoting Hotel are as bright as daytime. There are two staff members on duty at the front desk, and there are two teams of security patrols inside the hotel.

Xiaoman quietly leaned against the front desk, took off her high heels, stood on the carpet, and gently moved her numb feet, and she suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

After only standing for an hour, she felt her feet hurt and numb. Thinking about having to stand until seven in the morning, she cried inwardly.

From the corner of his eye, he saw that she was moving a little too much. Lili, who was on duty with her, reminded her in a low voice: "Move slowly, there is a surveillance camera above your head. Do you want your wages to be deducted?"

"If you get caught by the manager, be careful not to let you become a regular employee."

"Sister Lili, my feet hurt."

"You're not used to it when you first come here. Just try to get used to it." Lili pointed to the time on the computer. "It's only been an hour, so bear with me. Did you see that that place is a surveillance blind spot? When it's a little later, we'll Take turns to go there and rest for an hour.”

Xiaoman glanced at the location of the surveillance camera, "Is it really okay to disappear like this for an hour? The surveillance above..."

"Don't worry, it's all tacitly understood. It's also a perk of working the night shift."

Then she said in an experienced tone: "It's just a night shift without a manager watching over you, and you can do some small tricks. Otherwise, you will be caught. You will be criticized, and if it's serious, you will be fired." "

"It's so hard to find a good job nowadays, not to mention that the benefits here are really good and the salary is high. If you can't do it, there are so many people wanting to come in. You can tell by looking at the interview situation. After screening and re-screening, only six were selected. You guys We may not all be able to keep the six, judging from previous years, half of them will be kicked out.”

Speaking of this, Xiaoman looked confused, "Sister Lili, don't you know that I was scared to death during the interview? So many people rushed to come to the front desk. The young lady in front of me was a Ph.D. I can’t figure out what to do with this degree, why would I want to be on the front desk.”

"You are really silly and cute, you just graduated." Seeing that she looked like she had never been beaten by society, Lili kindly explained: "We are here to find a job, and others may not be the same."

"You know that Haoting Hotel has a royal background, right?"

"Uh-huh."

"More than half of the rooms in the hotel have been reserved by various dignitaries in the capital. They occasionally come to stay, and many people come here because of them. I once had a colleague who successfully hooked up with a certain big shot, so you understand. Bar?"

The two were chatting and gossiping, and suddenly the phone rang. There were two exquisite retro handsets on the front desk, one of which was vibrating. Lili's conditioned reflex did not delay in answering the phone.

"Hello, this is the front desk of Haoting Hotel. How can I serve you?"

After saying that, she suddenly felt a chill. There was no reply, only a heavy breathing, which made her feel chilly. It always felt like what she was holding in her hand was not a receiver, but a piece of ice, which made her tremble a little from the cold.

She asked tentatively: "Hello?"

Without waiting for a reply, she felt a force behind her hold her hand and hung up the phone. Xiaoman pulled her away and huddled in the corner of the front desk, far away from the phone.

"What are you doing?" I wanted to scold Xiaoman, but seeing her frightened and trembling look, I swallowed my words and said, "You will offend the guests. If the guests complain to the manager, we will all Expelled."

Xiaoman slowly raised her head and looked at Lili. She wanted to point to the phone but didn't dare. Her lips trembled in fear, "Sister Lili, isn't that phone a decoration?"

Her legs softened, and Lili, who realized it later, collapsed on the ground, holding Xiaoman's hand tightly with both hands, as if she was drawing strength. She didn't dare to look at the two calls. Her scalp was numb and her heart was pounding.

She had never felt anything was wrong until Xiaoman revealed it, but she was an old employee of the hotel. Did a new person need to remind her whether those two phone numbers were decorations?

The more I think about it now, the more I am afraid. Did I just lose my mind? Maybe it was the lights in the lobby that gave her some confidence, so she looked back at the phone.

"Ling ring ring~~"

The phone started ringing again.

"what……"

Two high-pitched, piercing screams echoed through the lobby.

Xiaoman and Lili hugged each other tightly in fear.

"What should I do, Sister Lili?"

"It's okay, let's ignore it."

Xiaoman felt that something was heating up in her sleeves, but she had no time to care about it now. She looked at the decorative phone that kept ringing in fear.
