When he finally returned to his room, he felt a huge weight lifted off his shoulders, as if he had accomplished a difficult task. However, the thought that this was only the first day and he would have to stay here for three more days made Lin Ye feel anything but relaxed. He thought to himself that going to work was definitely much easier than taking a vacation.

Just when he thought the day was over, he saw Skadi waiting in the room. He was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered that he hadn't trained yet, and suddenly felt even more tired.

What puzzled him was that after he entered the room, Skadi sat silently on the edge of her bed, seemingly lost in thought. Lin Ye waited a while, and seeing that Skadi still didn't react, he couldn't help but ask, "Skadi? What's wrong?"

Skadi finally came to her senses, looked up at Lin Ye, and shook her head.

Lin Ye asked again, "What happened?"

Skadi was silent for a moment, then said softly, "I just saw a strange person."

"A strange person?" Lin Ye asked curiously. "What strange person? What's strange about them?"

Skadi shook her head and said slowly, "I can't quite put my finger on it, but it feels very familiar to me, like I've seen her somewhere before, but I'm pretty sure I haven't."

"Is that so?" Lin Ye didn't seem to care much. "These kinds of things happen all the time."

"Often? Why?"

"There's no 'why'... It's just a very common thing. When you're out on the street, watching the passersby, you'll occasionally run into one or two people who look vaguely familiar, but you can't quite place where you've seen them before," Lin Ye said. "That kind of thing happens all the time, doesn't it?"

Just like how he used to think he knew every beautiful woman he saw while shopping—maybe an old classmate he hadn't seen in a long time, a childhood sweetheart he'd lost for years, or even a childhood sweetheart he'd been betrothed to since birth… *cough cough cough*, his thoughts were getting weirder and weirder. It was definitely because he'd read too many nonsensical novels; his thinking had become a bit scattered. In reality, those girls didn't know him at all, and had nothing to do with him.

This was originally just something Lin Ye said casually, but Skadi listened to it seriously. She thought about it for a moment, and then nodded gently: "I see, but where did that hostility come from?"

"What hostility?" Lin Ye didn't hear clearly.

Skadi shook her head and remained silent.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

At that moment, Lin Ye's heart skipped a beat, and his body trembled as if by reflex.

Who's knocking? Ifrit or Lappland? What are those two up to now? It's already this late, can't they let a person get some rest? Will pretending to be asleep and not opening the door work? Tsk, I should have listened to White Owl's advice and brought those boxes of sleeping pills!

The moment the knocking sounded, a series of thoughts flashed through Lin Ye's mind. He was terrified; he'd been driving all day and was exhausted, and then he'd done so much with them. All he wanted to do was sleep, but those two rascals seemed determined to keep bothering him… Wait, if it was Ifrit knocking, the force wouldn't be light, and if it was Lappland, the words "quack" would already be on her lips, along with that highly distinctive "howling" sound.

If it wasn't those two, then who was it? Nightingale?

The fact that Nightingale is contacting him at this time means she must have something important to say.

Thinking this, Lin Ye immediately ran to open the door: "Coming, coming."

However, upon opening the door, he found that standing there was neither Nightingale, nor Ifrit, nor Lappland. Instead, it was a Lupo waiter dressed in white. The reason Lin Ye could immediately recognize him as a Lupo was because the man's features were so distinctive—a wolf's head that looked extremely fierce, though the chef's hat on his head confirmed his identity.

They actually hired Lupo people as waiters... The owner of this hotel is really bold. Aren't they afraid of scaring away the guests?

Lin Ye muttered to himself, then noticed that the other person was pushing a food cart, which was filled with various pastries and drinks. It should have been delicious food, but for Lin Ye, who had already eaten two late-night snacks, just looking at it made him feel full, and he even felt something churning in his stomach.

"Good evening, esteemed guest." The Rupo waiter flashed a "friendly" smile. "It's our inn's special late-night snack time now. Please take a look and see what you'd like to eat. These are all local specialties of our town. I personally recommend this drink; it is..."

"Thank you, no need, goodnight."

Before the Lupo waiter could finish speaking, Lin Ye decisively closed the door.

The waiter's smile froze in mid-air.

Chapter 375 Do you require special *room service*?

Luther never expected that before he could even finish speaking, the other party would dare to turn him away.

This angered him.

On what grounds?!

He's a warrior of the Lupo tribe! A member of the Mafia! Back when he was fighting alongside his family for Rusas, no one ever dared to say "no" to him. Anyone who dared to refuse him, or rather, anyone who dared to refuse his family, was thrown into the sea long ago.

But this guy, this guy actually dared to... wait, did he forget something?

Luther thought for a moment before realizing something was wrong.

Wait a minute, wasn't he looking for the "Ghost Finder"? Didn't the boss say the "Ghost Finder" was a woman? But the guy who opened the door just now was clearly a man. Why is there a man in the "Ghost Finder's" room?! Did he go to the wrong room?

Thinking this, Luther took a step back and glanced at the room number on the wall again.

357, that's right. Then what about that man from earlier... Could he be the "Ghost Seeker"? Just with a more masculine appearance, but essentially a woman? No, no, the lights here aren't dim. Although the other person quickly closed the door, Luther could still clearly see the other person's appearance.

No hair, no breasts, **cannot be confirmed, but has an Adam's apple.

That was clearly a man. But Rusas hadn't told him there was a man in the "Ghost Hunter's" room. Was the information wrong, or did he forget to mention it?

Luther knew the safest course of action was to go back and ask his boss, Rusas, but as one of Rusas's earliest henchmen, Luther knew Rusas's temperament well. If he went back empty-handed after doing nothing, he would definitely get a scolding from Rusas again.

Therefore, it was best to do something, such as finding out who the man in the "Ghost Seeker's" room was, or whether the "Ghost Seeker" was still in the room before going back. With this thought in mind, Luther knocked on the door again. About twenty seconds later, the door opened again, and Lin Ye's face appeared before Luther's eyes once more.

Although he really wanted to punch this man who seemed exceptionally arrogant to him, Luther had to suppress his displeasure for the sake of the bigger picture and put on a friendly smile again.

Lin Ye didn't feel any warmth from that smile. Just think about it: a wolf dressed as a waiter smiling—besides "Grandma Wolf," Lin Ye couldn't think of any other word to describe it.

"What is it now?" Lin Ye said. "Didn't I already say I don't need midnight snacks?"

“I hope you will reconsider,” Luther said with a smile. “After all, our food is truly unique, and every customer who has tried it raves about it, plus it’s free.”

"Free?" Lin Ye looked surprised. "Is it really free?"

“Of course,” Luther nodded with a smile. “This is a perk our boss gives to all the guests.”

Lin Ye's expression immediately changed from surprise to struggle.

Free? How could it be free?! He had spent so much money on a late-night snack downstairs, and when he couldn't eat anymore, someone came over and told him that the snack was actually free and would be delivered to his door, and that the money he had spent was unnecessary. This was extremely unacceptable to Lin Ye. He even felt that the owner of the place was deliberately trying to annoy him, since he had previously thought the owner was quite friendly.

Lin Ye glanced at the food on the food cart. To be honest, when he heard the word "free," he wished Luther would push the entire cart in, especially since he had previously paid a hefty price to eat the same food twice! However, Lin Ye also knew very well that even if it were free, he couldn't eat any more, and pushing it in would only leave it uneaten. Although he did like to take advantage of small things, he didn't really like wasting food.

"Never mind, I don't need it." Lin Ye shook his head. "I'm really full. Go and deliver it to someone else."

After saying that, Lin Ye prepared to close the door.

Luther panicked immediately.

As a Lupo warrior and a member of the Mafia, how could he be turned away twice in a row? So he took a step forward, braced his elbow against the door, and then leaned towards Lin Ye, startling him. After all, it was a wolf's head, and when it came close, Lin Ye felt like it wanted to devour him whole: "What are you doing?"

Luther desperately wanted to say, "I've come to bring you food myself, you're eating it whether you like it or not!" But his dwindling rationality told him that if he said that, the mission his boss, Rusas, had given him would essentially be over. He'd definitely be punished by Rusas; the Rupo tribe's punishments were notoriously cruel, and just thinking about it sent a shiver down his spine. This shiver spurred him to quickly activate his remaining intelligence, and in this tense moment, he devised a plan. So he lowered his voice and said, "Hey buddy, don't be so loud. I just wanted to ask if you need room service?"

"Room service?" Lin Ye was quite surprised. "What room service?"

“Look at what you’re saying.” Luther gave a knowing smile that sent a chill down Lin Ye’s spine. “Of course, it’s our hotel’s exclusive room service.”

"Special room service?"

“Yes,” Luther said with a smile, “Special room service.”

Having said all that, Luther felt he was a true genius, worthy of being the smartest person after the boss! He had come up with a solution so easily. Just by asking that question, even without entering the room, he could guess whether the "Ghosthunter" was inside.

After all, if this man lives alone, how could he possibly refuse "room service"? But if he lives with the "ghost hunter," no matter what his relationship with the "ghost hunter" is, he can't possibly order "room service." So, if this guy seems to "really want it, but has to reluctantly refuse because of some concerns," then the answer to the question is quite clear.

come on!

Seeing Lin Ye's hesitation, Luther couldn't help but smile.

Hurry up and tell me the answer!

To further encourage Lin Ye, Luther whispered in his ear, "Guest, if you're staying alone, I suggest you give it a try. We've recently had quite a few Felin girls here, I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

However, Lin Ye's next answer was something Luther couldn't have come up with no matter how hard he tried.

"A Filin girl? Why would room service need a Filin girl?" Lin Ye frowned.

"Hmm? You don't want a Felin girl to serve you?" Luther was somewhat surprised, thinking that this kid was a heretic who didn't like cute cat-eared girls. "That's fine too, we have others here..."

"No need," Lin Ye said. "Room service is fine with you."

Luther: "?"

He thought he had misheard: "What did you say?"

"Didn't you say room service?" Lin Ye said. "I said you can come here."

Luther couldn't help but gape: "Me!?"

“Yeah.” Lin Ye frowned. “What? You can’t do it? You look pretty big, you must be strong too.”

Luther's mouth twitched involuntarily: "You, you like someone as strong as me?"

"Yeah, how can I do this if I'm not strong enough?" Lin Ye said, a little annoyed. "Are you even a waiter? If you're not good enough, then forget it. If you are, then hurry up and come in. It's so late, I still need to sleep."

Luther took a deep breath.

This kid isn't just a heretic! He's also... he doesn't want to say the word.

Luther never imagined that he would be noticed by a man in a place like this! It made him feel like his worldview was about to collapse.

What should he do if he encounters such a situation?

If you agree to Lin Ye's request and follow him into his room to provide him with "room service," you can uncover the truth about the "Ghost Man." If you refuse Lin Ye and go back to report to Rusas, Rusas will definitely not let you off the hook if he finds out he missed such a good opportunity.

At that moment, Luther felt that this was all there was to life.

Ultimately, he made a decision.

Rusas! From this moment on, I have repaid all that I owed you!

He roared inwardly, but said aloud, "Okay, guest, let me provide you with room service."

At that moment, he felt his heart bleeding.

Until Lin Ye shoved a stick into his hand.

"Hurry, hurry, hurry," Lin Ye said. "Our toilet has been clogged for a while now. If you don't come, I'm going to call the guest room."

Horse, toilet?

Luxem was stunned.
