Deadly Game: Almighty Boss’s Guide to Making Money

Chapter 965. The Infinite Time-Space Hotel (5)

Lin Xi's room is 103 on the basement level. You can get there by turning right from the elevator and walking through a narrow, cramped corridor.

Huang Jingjing and the others' rooms were all to the left of the elevator.

As Lin Xi walked towards her room, she paused for a moment.

Is anyone in room 105?

It wasn't there this morning!

It's unlikely that another player would join midway through the game, so it must be an NPC.

Are you here to provide clues?

Or is there something else that requires them to complete the level? Or just observe?
As Lin Xi pondered this, she opened her bedroom door.

Back in his room, Lin Xi watched the live stream carefully for a while, but didn't find any new players.

She took out her phone and sent a message in the group chat.

Mu Xiaobei: [Are there any new guests staying at the hotel?]

Huang Xiaolin: [No, it's very quiet here.]

Zhang Yutong and the other two also stated that they had not found anyone else.

Lin Xi put down her phone and decided to eat first.

She ordered a carton of yogurt, a piece of bread, and a bag of spicy strips, happily turning lunch into breakfast.

After dinner, Lin Xi went to wash up and lay down on the bed. Just as she closed her eyes, she heard faint crying sounds coming from inside.

But the crying stopped after a short while.

Lin Xi got out of bed and opened the door, just in time to see that the door to room 105 was also open.

A middle-aged woman with long hair and wearing pajamas walked out. She wasn't particularly beautiful, but she had an indescribable charm.

The woman paused for a moment when she saw Lin Xi, but then smiled.

Hello, beautiful lady.

"Hello." Lin Xi waved to her. "Are you a new guest?"

The woman paused for a moment, then smiled: "Yes."

Lin Xi wondered if it was just her imagination, but the woman's smile seemed a little forced.

"You... you're here because of Lu Lin's matter too?" Lin Xi asked again.

Who is Lu Lin?

"Oh, it's nothing," Lin Xi said.

If it's not about Lu Lin, then it must be something else.

As expected, this so-called Infinite Time Hotel had more than one trap waiting for them.

I just don't know what's going on this time?

"Sister, are you here for tourism?" Lin Xi asked again.

The woman smiled but didn't say anything.

Is this an NPC?
—Of course, there aren't any live streams.

--maybe.

—Yeah, that young and handsome guy can't see the live stream. Maybe some players don't even have a live stream at all!
—How could there be so many special players? Impossible.

—There are many more than that. So far, it's not just Xiaobai.

Therefore, one more wouldn't be too many.

Lin Xi was about to return to her room when she saw the woman heading towards the stairwell. She hesitated, but still took a step forward.

go down.

Lin Xi was about to speak when she stopped.

The woman clearly didn't want to say anything.

Since the other party doesn't want to talk, she'll just have to watch.

Lin Xi immediately kicked his slippers aside, instantly becoming invisible, and quietly followed behind the woman.

The woman slowly walked down the stairs, step by step, and stopped at the corner of the stairs.

"Don't you like elevators? Why are you suddenly taking the stairs?" the woman muttered to herself, then chuckled.

Then, another step was taken.

—This older sister walks so slowly.

—I was worried that if 123 walked too fast, he might accidentally bump into her.

—Her expression was so sad, it made me feel sad too.

—Is she reminiscing about something? —Perhaps about someone!
—It looks like it.

—Whom are you thinking of?

The woman stopped again, thought for a moment, and then suddenly turned around.

Fortunately, Lin Xi stopped in time, otherwise he would have really bumped into that woman.

The woman remained silent for a moment, then turned and walked back.

Seeing the woman return to her room 105, Lin Xi felt a little confused and even forgot to undo her invisibility until she returned to her own room.

--what's the situation?
—Aren't NPCs supposed to provide clues? What clues is this woman providing?
—Should we send them back to six months ago? That woman didn't just leave halfway before coming back.

—How would you have replied six months ago?

—Yeah, doesn't the time only change after you check in?
—I don't think this person is here to provide clues. She seems to be living in her own world, and I don't know what she's thinking.

Lin Xi didn't watch the live stream, nor did she think too much about it. She went back to bed and closed her eyes.

Perhaps she was truly exhausted, because when Lin Xi woke up, it was already...

Lin Xi got up and started looking for her phone.

She remembered putting her phone on the bedside table, but it was gone!
Lin Xi shook the blanket again.

Great, several cell phones fell out of the blanket.

Lin Xi counted them; there were five in total.

Lin Xi opened one of them and found that the phone had quite a few contacts and a lot of chat history.

Lin Xi opened the pinned chat and looked at it, shaking her head as she read.

—123, what exactly are you looking at?
—Could we take a look too?

—Yes, what is it that we VIPs can't watch?

—Is it related to Lu Lin, or to the woman from earlier?
—I don't know, I don't understand.

Hello, Mr. Sanbu.

— He's a fake "Three No's Teacher".

Lin Xi opened another phone and browsed through it casually.

There doesn't seem to be any substantial content on this phone.

She checked two more phones, but there was nothing there.

Lin Xi picked up the last phone, and just as she opened the chat page, the phone disappeared.

Lin Xi paused for a moment, then looked at the other phones.

All five cell phones were gone, except for her own, which lay quietly on the bedside table.

Lin Xi grabbed her phone and went out without even changing out of her pajamas.

She arrived at Huang Jingjing's room and sent her a message.

Huang Jingjing opened the door.

“We have a new mission,” Lin Xi said.

"Come in and talk!"

"No need, we'll use stealth teleportation to room 105."

"You have to tell me what the new mission is!"

"Saving...a relationship?" Lin Xi asked.

"Huh?" Huang Jingjing exclaimed in surprise. "What kind of bizarre task is this!"

—Teacher Huang's shocked expression was so cute.

—Teacher Huang: I don't even understand my own feelings, yet I'm trying to save other people's relationships.

—Teacher Huang seems to have no emotions.

—Who says she doesn't? She has a strong affection for 123.

—Yes, the Tropic of Cancer is real.

—Huh? It seems like there are fewer fans shipping the daylily and cauliflower lately?

"Yes, there are two very awkward people, it seems like they're having relationship problems."

“Oh, that’s easy,” Huang Jingjing said. “We’ve solved so many murder and dismemberment cases, let alone a relationship between two people.”

"Don't be too optimistic," Lin Xi said. "I just saw some chat logs; these two people are mentally ill."

After saying that, Lin Xi sighed.

"Yu Chen isn't here. This task seems a bit difficult!"
