Everyone can act, but few can play Lin En so well.
After establishing the specific actions with Reiner, he opened the door and put his arms around the shoulders of the nearest security guard: "Yes, is there any sobering soup? I have a severe headache..."
"This..." Several security guards looked at each other.
"It's late at night, so don't bother me." Reiner stepped forward to advise, "Drink more water and get some sleep."
"Okay..." Lin En struggled for a moment, held the door and moved back to the room. Before closing the door, he patted his forehead and reminded the security guards, "In the morning, at nine o'clock in the morning, please knock on the door and call.
Let's wait, don't, don't let us oversleep, we still have to investigate the case..."
"Ah...ok..." the security guard responded.
"Bang."
The door was closed, Lin locked it, and yelled a few more times through the door that she had a headache and needed to sleep immediately.
"The hotel must have a key to open the door." Reiner whispered.
Lin En had an idea.
Use your mind power to jam the door lock.
"Let us hold on as long as we can." He said, "In the next period of time, their focus will definitely be on dealing with the mutinous security guards. By the time they come to check on our situation, we will have basically checked the situation and come back.
.”
"Well, we can only take risks." Reiner walked to the window, opened it, and looked outside warily.
It was already late at night, it was pitch dark outside, the dim street lights could only dimly illuminate the road, and the seventh floor was almost a blind spot.
After confirming that there was no danger, the six-pointed astrolabe with adjusted brightness was released outside the window.
"Be careful." Linn warned, while helping Reiner carefully climb out of the window.
After Reiner stood firm on the astrolabe, Linn climbed out of the window.
In the vast darkness of the night, without anyone knowing, Linn and Reiner returned to the rooftop of the Old South York Hotel under the support of the astrolabe.
Since this was the coldest time of the day, the two of them were shivering in the cold wind as soon as they went up.
"Are you sure they will take the body out from the main entrance?" Reiner stood on the edge of the rooftop, looking down.
"If there is no movement at these doors, it means they have secret passages. No matter what, we will gain something, right?" Lin En said.
"Well, just wait." Reiner and Linn each stood on one side, staring closely at the movements below.
——
At the same time, on the first floor of the hotel
It was still Linn, the room that Reiner had visited, Marquis Aldrich, Awakened Tabor, Butler Phil, Hotel Owner Ralph, and Manager Bowen, all looking coldly at the security guards who were tied up one by one.
The Old Nanyue Hotel implements the policy of being tight on the outside and loose on the inside, so more than ten security guards are stationed inside and outside the first floor alone.
At this time, the defensive personnel on the first floor changed.
They were originally stationed, but Lin En and Reiner were forced to slip in, and they were all tied up here.
"So far, no one has come forward to admit that they took the Sheriff's money, right?" Hotel owner Ralph paced back and forth in front of a row of kneeling security guards, "I only give you this one chance to admit it.
I can let it go. But if I miss it, things will become quite serious."
All the security guards were at a loss.
None of them had ever received any money from Lin En or Liner. Even before Lin En and Liner were arrested, they didn't even see a shadow of them.
But they have no way to ensure that other companions around them do not collect money.
"Whoever took the money, please come forward immediately!"
"The boss has given you a chance. Why are you still standing there? Do you want to drag us all down?!"
"Hurry up! Admit your mistake to the boss as soon as possible, and the boss will not pursue it!"
This group of people had been following Ralph for quite some time, and they were well aware of the consequences of betrayal, so under heavy pressure, they all screamed at their companions, hoping that someone would stand up and take responsibility.
However, everyone was yelling at their companions, but no one had the intention to stand up and take responsibility.
The four security guards with guns on the other side who were responsible for ensuring order saw this situation and couldn't help but exhort them: "Brothers, don't miss the opportunity given by the boss! If you admit now that nothing will happen, but if you don't say anything, you will be harmed.
Everyone has to finish playing!”
Still no one came forward.
Ralph narrowed his eyes.
He had doubts and was worried that these subordinates were innocent. Lin En and Reiner had never bribed them at all.
But there is one place that makes even more sense.
If they hadn't bribed the security guards, how could Linn and Reiner have sneaked in and not been discovered until the stairwell on the first floor?
Thinking of this, Ralph felt relieved.
No matter what, these security guards must die.
Got bribed, damn it.
He was not bribed, but a dozen people could not guard a few doors. Such a loser deserves to die even more.
"I will give you the last ten seconds. Tell the truth truthfully in these ten seconds. I can let you go, but if you don't tell me, you will be responsible for the consequences." Ralph's face was cold, and his patience was quickly exhausted.
"Ten, nine, eight——"
"Who the hell took the money? Come on and stand up for me!"
"What idiot! Do you have to drag us together to be buried together?"
"Hurry up! Hurry up! What are you still fussing over after the boss gave you a chance?!"
As death approaches, the security guard being held becomes increasingly agitated.
"...Three, two, one." Ralph sighed regretfully, "The opportunity is in front of me. I can't complain if I don't use it."
"Boss, it wasn't me who betrayed the hotel! You know me, I'm not that kind of person! Even if it were me, I wouldn't be so stupid that you still don't admit it after you gave me so many opportunities!"
"Boss, I am the innocent one! I have been with you for two years! In the past two years, I have not handled anything you have told me poorly! You should know that I will never betray you!"
"You saved my life! You are my benefactor, do you think I will betray you for the money of those sheriffs?!"
"Boss, listen to me..."
"Boss, this has nothing to do with me, it really has nothing to do with me..."
The security guard, whose hands and feet were tied, moved around and expressed his loyalty to the hotel owner Ralph with tears in his eyes, proving his innocence.
Marquis Aldrich, who was sitting aside and watching, said not a word.
The more silent the people around him were, the more Ralph knew what he should do.
Today's matter is ultimately a problem with his hotel. In addition to dealing with Lynn and Reiner, the hotel's security omissions must be given to Aldrich to make a sincere statement.
"You have disappointed me." Ralph sighed again, "I have never wronged any of you in these years, but you want to kill all of us for a small amount of money."
"boss--"
"Listen to me -"
"That's enough!" Ralph shouted to stop, "How can you have the dignity to tell me this now?! If you could stick to your heart, if you could cheer up tonight, would you let those two sheriffs sneak in?
!What if they collect important evidence today?! What if it affects the reputation of Marquis Aldrich?! The combined heads of all of you are not enough to compensate!"
The room suddenly fell silent.
"Huh." Marquis Aldrich was quite unhappy with what happened tonight.
Manager Bowen looked at him with an apologetic smile.
"Boss, then..." the gun-wielding security guard asked for instructions.
"Follow the rules." Ralph ordered ruthlessly.
Upon hearing this, the security guards who were being held in custody turned pale and began to cry and beg.
Ralph turned a blind eye to this and told the security guard beside him: "Don't make too much noise and alert the two sheriffs. Also, do things quickly and finish them before dawn. The hotel is not suitable for storing so many things now."
Something that is not good for us.”
"clear."
"Also." Ralph added, "Clear all records about them in the hotel and remind everyone that they have never existed in the hotel. Anyone who dares to leak a word in the future will suffer the same fate.
"
He still believed that someone here was bribed by Lin En and Reiner.
To avoid more trouble, it is safest to let them disappear completely.
In this way, even if Linn and Reiner find any way to expose them in the future, they will lack human witnesses and physical evidence, and will not be able to cause substantial harm to them.
The security guard in charge of the execution looked stern after hearing this, with both fear and determination in his eyes: "Yes!"
