The man shouted, questioning the owner and his wife of the hot spring hotel: "I've heard that guests always lose things here!"
"You must have stolen it!"
In response to the guest's anxious question, the owner of the hot spring hotel showed an embarrassed look on his face. He smiled and said, "Well...it is true that guests often lose things here, but it is really not us who did it."
As the boss spoke, the lady boss chimed in: "That is to say... I think there may be a repeat offender in Fengsha Village, but you can't blame us."
"Yes, we have called the police for you. We will ask them to help investigate... If they can't find anything, there is nothing we can do."
"..."
It sounds like something was simply lost.
The man refused to give in. He looked very angry: "How can you do this? Don't you have any surveillance cameras here?!"
It's a pity that in a hot spring hotel like this, where everyone walks around in towels, it's unreasonable to have surveillance cameras in the corridors.
With this judgment, Cong Yu decided not to care about this farce. He had already started thinking about what to eat for breakfast today.
But soon, a few guests who had returned to their rooms to confirm something also rushed out in a hurry...
"The cash I brought with me is also gone."
"Me too... the ring I brought yesterday to propose to Yamei is missing! Damn it!"
"..."
Listening to the noise, the man in the black suit suddenly thought of something. He searched his pockets and his face turned ugly: "My money... I only have two or three thousand with me."
It seems that everyone has fallen into the trap... What a powerful thief.
Cong Yu thought so and he was not worried about being robbed because he was sure that no one had entered his room last night.
After all, Cong Yu thought that he was a person who was not worth being stolen.
Maybe that's why nothing was stolen from him.
But what’s more interesting is…
How did that [thief] act, and what pattern did he use to determine which people were worth stealing?
"It's strange...I woke up and the money was gone."
The man in the black suit frowned tightly, and couldn't help feeling a little scary: "Last night when I was sleeping, someone sneaked into my room and stole money."
Cong Yu crossed his arms and smiled indifferently at the man in the black suit who said this: "That's quite scary...wait."
Thinking of something, Cong Yu frowned and knocked on Yao Chuanguang's door: "Yao Chuanguang, are you awake?"
In response, Yao Chuanguang's voice came from the room.
"Well, Cong Yu-chan, please come in...it's so noisy outside."
As she spoke, Cong Yu opened the door, entered Yao Chuanguang's room, and looked at Yao Chuanguang who was searching for something.
Really?
At first he thought that Yao Chuanguang had not woken up yet, but then he thought...Yao Chuanguang's lifestyle habit has always been to go to bed early and get up early.
Because she usually gets up early to make breakfast for Cong Yu and Lan Tianzhu.
Cong Yu looked at Yao Chuanguang who was looking at him hesitantly and said, "Don't tell me your things are missing too."
In response, Yao Chuanguang nodded.
"Well, after I woke up, I was going to take the money and ask you to go have breakfast together...but the money was gone. It was stolen."
Yao Chuanguang frowned. She noticed what Cong Yu said before and said, "What do you mean by 'also'? Cong Yu-chan, were your things stolen too?"
However it didn't...
It's a bit embarrassing... In this situation, is it true that I should lose something myself so that I can appear more sociable?
Thinking about the mess, Cong Yu shook her head and explained, "The agent and many customers' things were stolen."
Moreover, it is a worse situation.
"Maybe someone stole it while you were sleeping last night."
Cong Yu said this while observing the traces in Yao Chuanguang's room... and basically confirmed that there were no traces of magic.
Of course, it is also possible that it is covered up better.
Just like how Cong Yu had successfully covered up the remaining magic of the Jörmungandr train countless times before, as long as the ritual was not made with much noise, it would be easy to cover up the traces and deceive him.
"Did you notice anything wrong?"
In response to Cong Yu's question, Yao Chuanguang shook his head hesitantly and said with some emotion: "No... Well, fortunately, only the money was stolen."
Indeed, for a young girl, it would be a terrible thing if someone secretly took advantage of her.
Cong Yu thought so, nodded and left Yao Chuanguang's room.
Although only a small amount of cash was stolen, Cong Yu was still in a bad mood...
The person who stole the things actually happened to Cong Yu.
"..."
"We own an entire hot spring hotel. If you lose something, why do you say we stole it?"
The proprietress looked a bit aggressive. She confronted all the customers whose things were stolen: "When the police come, everything will be clear."
The boss's attitude was softer in response to his wife's words: "Don't worry, everyone. When the police come, we will let them investigate. We can guarantee that we did nothing."
"..."
"..."
It seems to have a certain degree of credibility.
Cong Yu thought so, leaning against the wall with his arms folded across his chest, feeling that things were a bit difficult to deal with... because he didn't have much brains.
Ahem, that's too much.
To be precise, he wasn't some famous detective who became famous at a young age... He had no clue about this situation.
There are so many possibilities...
There is a possibility that the boss and his wife are insiders, or that they are unaware of the situation...there is a possibility that the property has been hidden.
There is even a possibility that your property will be eaten.
For example, the boss and his wife secretly raised a weirdo who liked to eat money and property to provide them with constant good luck... or something like that.
It seems that we can only wait for the police's statement.
Cong Yu thought so and looked around at the people whose things were stolen. He frowned slightly: "With so many people here, is it true that no one has discovered anything?"
There were about a dozen guests whose things were stolen.
Did everyone, including Yao Chuanguang and the man in the black suit, really sleep so soundly at night that they didn't even notice that their things had been stolen?
It seems a little abnormal.
And what the boss and his wife said was not wrong...
The two men ran a hot spring hotel, and there should be no need to steal things in Fengsha Village, a place with a large number of tourists.
From the perspective of motive, the two are unlikely to be suspected.
So is seeking wealth just a cover-up?
Cong Yu was in deep thought, frowning. He felt that the current situation was a bit mysterious... He also felt that his luck was very bad.
Cong Yu sighed a little, raised his head, and asked the two people at the center of the problem: "Boss, and the boss lady..."
The boss was stunned for a moment after Cong Yu's conversation, then showed a nervous expression: "What's wrong? This guest?"
The proprietress also looked at Cong Yu nervously.
Cong Yu didn't know what they were so nervous about, but she asked anyway, "Where's the green-haired kid who came to sell drinks yesterday? Do you know him?"
"..."
"!!!"
"!!!"
In response to Cong Yu's words, the two of them became nervous almost instantly: "That's our daughter...what are you looking for Xiao Cui for?"
Under such questioning, the boss's face suddenly became a little stern: "Just say what you want to say!"
At the same time, a hint of disgust and disdain appeared on the faces of the two.
Of course, it’s for the Xiao Cui they mentioned.
"..."
Why has the attitude become like this?
Cong Yu was a little confused. He thought about something and realized... the boss and the boss's wife were definitely insiders.
Although she may not know about the theft, she definitely knows that their daughter, named "Xiao Cui", is a magical girl.
So, perhaps what happened last night was somewhat related to Xiao Cui.
After making such a judgment, Cong Yu felt that there was no need to alert the enemy: "Nothing, I just didn't see it this morning, so I was curious."
"Has anything strange happened in this hot spring hotel recently?"
Cong Yu hesitated for a moment and decided to divert the two people's attention: "I wonder if it's a weird person."
The boss, the boss's wife and other guests had not responded to this pretentious inquiry. Yao Chuanguang leaned in first.
"What? Weirdos?!"
In response, Cong Yu slapped her back, saying that it had nothing to do with her... In short, he wanted to blur the view first.
Cong Yu cooperated with the police who arrived, and then contacted Kayoko Miyamoto on Linx with a lot of questions.
It might just be a hunch, but maybe she would know something.
If things don't progress...
Cong Yu directly used the [Hydra Brand] to control the owner and the owner's wife of the store... and then found out the truth.
After all, Cong Yu is the kind of person who doesn't mind cheating.
The [ding~] sound of Feng Ling Yueying is his attitude towards this world, and also the world's praise for his strength.
Why not play if there is a frame?
Chapter 100: It feels like a river of blood is about to flow
[Cong Yu: Regarding the hot spring hotel where Yao Chuanguang and I are staying, I have some doubts... This morning, many people found that their belongings were stolen. ]
[Miyamoto Kayoko: Stolen? ]
【Cong Yu: Yes, in one night, many people’s belongings disappeared. There may be a “thief”.】
[Cong Yu: The police came to search the hot spring hotel, discussing "another theft, how bad", and then as usual, they found nothing. ]
【Cong Yu: I am more curious about the methods used by the “thief”.】
【…】
In response to Cong Yu's question, Miyamoto Kayoko was obviously silent for a moment, and then she typed a response.
[Kayoko Miyamoto: Why do you ask me? ]
[Cong Yu: There is a young magical girl with green hair in the hot spring hotel. She is the daughter of the hotel owner and his wife... Do you know her? ]
[Kayoko Miyamoto:...]
Looking at the series of question marks sent by Kayoko Miyamoto, Cong Yu took out a few coins from his pocket while waiting for the other party's response.
In front of Cong Yu was a beverage vending machine.
In Futo, vending machines are not uncommon...
No, to be precise... In fact, vending machines can be found almost everywhere in Neon.
Japan's vending machine culture seems to have an inexplicably large audience. Perhaps it's a mentality of "not wanting to cause trouble to others"?
Cong Yu wasn't sure.
