Deadly Game: Almighty Boss’s Guide to Making Money

Chapter 1043. The Infinite Time-Space Hotel (83)

Although Meng Ye's eyes couldn't hide her sadness and pain, it didn't prevent her from communicating normally with people. Overall, she seemed quite normal.

Lin Xi and Huang Jingjing were relieved and teleported back to Lin Xi's room.

"Alright, I have to sleep even if I can't. Just consider it jet lag." Huang Jingjing laughed. "I'm leaving. You get some rest."

"There's still no cell phone signal," Lin Xi said. "It seems we're still in the era before cell phones."

"It's only been seven months, don't be too demanding," Huang Jingjing said as she walked out.

The next day, Lin Xi got up exceptionally early.

Because I really couldn't sleep.

However, when she went downstairs to go for a walk, she found that the gate to the courtyard was still locked.

Lin Xi was about to turn back when she saw an old man in his sixties coming downstairs with a key in his hand, going to open the front door.

Another employee; this is the tenth they've seen.

I wonder if the person who opened the gate is the same "Old Li" that Meng Ye and the others were talking about.

Lin Xi smiled at the old man and walked out the door.

Across from the hotel is a very large and wide lake.

The reason Lin Xi knew it was a lake was because she saw a sign next to it that read: "Yingyue Lake".

The name sounds quite nice.

Lin Xi had been walking along the lakeside for a short while when she saw Huang Jingjing and the other three suddenly appear beside her.

Luckily it's early, and there's no one else by the lake yet.

"The scenery is beautiful, with mountains and water," Huang Jingjing said.

“Yes, it’s perfect for healing,” Zhang Xuesong replied.

"Meng Ye's injury mainly came from Xiao Guo, not Da Min," Gan Ning said, not with doubt, but with certainty.

“Da Min’s death, after all, had nothing to do with her,” Zhang Yutong agreed.

“Even if she acts distant and indifferent, she’s only in her twenties,” Lin Xi said, sighing.

—123, you're only in your early twenties, no need to act so old-fashioned.

—123, you're only in your early twenties, the perfect age for dating.

—123, don't be like 105, who didn't have a proper relationship when he was young, and only started when he was old.

—She's not old yet, thank you.

—Even though she's old, she hasn't had a proper relationship. Thank you.

—Damn, you guys are really good at killing people. I just wanted to see Meng Ye as he is now.

The Meng Ye of today is the same Meng Ye who came before.

Thankfully, she didn't come from the future.

—I just want to ask, is it the same as last time, where do you suddenly send us 123 when you want us to see a particular segment?
—No, no, I want to do it in order, otherwise I'll be confused.

—Me too, I have to figure out the timeline myself, it's exhausting.

—I hope this broken game will at least have some humanity!

—Yeah, this game doesn't offer many opportunities to be a real person.

—Not bad, a dungeon where no one dies, just gossip.

—The players are immortal, but the NPCs are dead!
Lin Xi and the other five strolled around for a while longer, without going too far from the hotel.

"Let's go back, it's time for breakfast," Lin Xi said.

The five people walked back and saw several girls walking into the hotel courtyard.

They're all quite young, around eighteen or nineteen years old, the oldest probably only in his early twenties.

The girls were having a great time, chattering away.

"We're going shopping with Meng Ye tonight, anyone want to come along?"

The girl who spoke was quite tall, with big eyes, a round face, and short hair. "You're so quick to talk," another girl chimed in. "If you say that again, everyone will know the receptionist is going to give us preferential treatment today."

A girl with shoulder-length short hair secretly rolled her eyes.

—These two girls did it on purpose!
——Of course!

—It should be "showing off".

—Yeah, it definitely has a bit of a show-off vibe.

—What, is Meng someone who's hard to get an appointment with?
—She probably just seems aloof.

—Yes, she does appear aloof, and now she's added sadness to that.

“Going out with Meng Ye is nothing special. If you’re so capable, go with Piao’er.” A girl laughed.

"Never mind, Piao'er's eyes can only see the two colleagues at the front desk," said the big-eyed girl.

The girls chatted and laughed as they entered the hotel.

There were already quite a few people in the hotel, both men and women, some standing and some sitting.

The girls who were just there were wearing casual clothes, while some of them were clearly wearing work uniforms.

Black trousers, white shirt, red vest.

Lin Xi and the others didn't go to the second floor; they just sat on the hotel sofa.

A young man who looked to be in his early twenties was sitting at the front desk; he was quite good-looking.

After checking the time, the boys began calling out names one by one.

Lin Xi silently counted the votes. After all the boys had finished counting and everyone had left, Lin Xi glanced at Huang Jingjing.

Gan Ning and the other two also looked on incredulously.

"It's just a five-story building. I heard that the fifth floor is a dance hall with more than thirty employees."

“Thirty-three, including the one whose name was just called,” Lin Xi said.

“The person who just called roll was the office manager,” Xiao Bai interjected with a smile. “We also have a general manager, a vice president, a restaurant manager, a housekeeping manager, and an accountant and a cashier.”

"Thirty-nine people?" Zhang Yutong asked.

"Hmm, more or less." Xiaobai smiled, picked up the mop, and started mopping the floor.

"Where are we having breakfast?" Lin Xi asked.

"I'll give you a receipt and send it to the kitchen. You can just go to the designated room and wait," Xiaobai said, putting down the mop and going to the front desk.

Soon, Xiaobai finished filling out the order.

"Breakfast is a set menu, we don't accept à la carte orders. Please wait in restaurant number five. Turn left and go to the first room ahead of number five." Xiao Bai said, tearing a page from the receipt and heading towards the kitchen.

When Lin Xi and the others arrived at room number five, they found that the person inside was none other than the shoulder-length-haired girl who had been secretly rolling her eyes.

She was very tall, but not particularly pretty.

"Hello," Lin Xi greeted with a smile, then asked, "Number Five, pretty girl, what's your name?"

"Just call me Miaomiao," Number Five said with a smile, pouring water for the five people, placing it on the turntable, and rotating it to them.

"Thank you," the five people said in unison.

"You're welcome," Miao Miao replied.

Just then, someone pushed the door open and came in. The girl was stunned when she saw Lin Xi and the other four.

"Breakfast is served on the 5th today, so which number should we eat at?"

"Number six!" Miaomiao said. "We eat in either number five or number six. If there are many guests, we eat in the room where there are no guests."

"Okay, thank you," the girl replied and went out.

“She’s new here and doesn’t know the situation very well yet,” Miao Miao said with a smile.

"One person per room?" Huang Jingjing asked.

“Yes, one person per restaurant, plus a supervisor,” Miaomiao said. “The kitchen has eleven people, including a head chef.”

"So, in the entire hotel, your food and beverage department has the most people?"
