Rhode Island Park Project

"The Crown Taikoo Hotel."

Chapter 385 Sorry to bother you!

"...Welcome aboard. For travel to Rhodes Island, choose..."

Yara closed the taxi door and looked at the building standing in front of her.

A huge stone signboard with flowing calligraphy stood in the center of the spacious front square, and was illuminated by lights as the dusk gradually fell.

"The Crown Taikoo Hotel..."

Yara muttered softly.

If it weren't for Luo Hang's friendly arrangement, she might have come here to get a reimbursed trip, right?

The Shi Huaiya family has close ties with Rhodes Island and is itself a well-known international enterprise. Such a high-end hotel was probably destined to gather many troubles in Rhodes Island from the beginning of the construction plan.

Yara walked towards the hotel gate under the receptionist's greeting.

There were many people around discussing what had happened not long ago, but other than that, she didn't even see any signs of fighting. The welcoming smiles and service were still professional, and the other people who were talking were mostly just watching the fun as if they were used to it.

"It seems that life in Rhodes Island is quite colorful."

After all, this was a city where most of the residents were infected people who could perform Originium skills without using a spell unit. She suddenly became curious about how lively this city would be in the future.

It feels like it should be quite... colorful?

Yara herself laughed at the scene she imagined.

Without any trouble, Yara was led to the front desk by the waiter.

"I'm here to pick up something, cabinet 1306."

"Okay, please wait a moment."

The receptionist responded with a standard smile, turned and entered a door, and soon came out, handing her an exquisite open envelope.

Yara picked up the envelope with the advertisement of 'Taikoo Crown Hotel Hotline...' printed on it and took a look inside the opening. As expected, she saw the universal room card she had reserved.

"Thank you."

"You're welcome. The elevator on the east side has just resumed operation. You can go upstairs from either the east or west elevator."

Yara nodded.

The elevator room that had just been restored was definitely related to the previous battle.

It was able to resume operation in such a short time, so it seems that it was not affected too much, but there may still be some traces left, so her first choice is of course that place.

Yara walked towards her goal.

The east and west elevators were located on either side of the hotel building, and suddenly they were completely invisible, but for some reason, Yara looked in the direction of the west elevator with some hesitation.

“I always feel like I’m missing something…”

Yara frowned, but still did not leave the elevator because of her unreasonable whim.

She had already sensed traces of the 'wind' left here. In order to ensure that Miss Quetzalcoatl had not done anything else along the way, she now needed to follow this clue.

The elevator doors close.

Two seconds later, an elf lady who had just come downstairs looked around and hurriedly ran from the west elevator to the hotel gate.

They arrived at the target floor on the 16th floor without any problems. Yara was basically certain that their Miss Quetzalcoatl should have controlled the elevator, then jumped directly into the underground garage along the elevator shaft and ran away. Now both parties were probably still making trouble in the city.

1601, 1602, 1603.

Holding the universal room card provided by the hotel, Yara walked smoothly through the crime scene and went directly to room 1602 through the big hole in the wall of room 1603. She already had a general idea of ​​what happened.

...Their Miss Quetzalcoatl, was she attacked?

Yara was a little surprised by this.

Although she did not doubt the mercenaries that the big companies armed at all costs, the feathered serpent was also undoubtedly a dangerous person. At least she did not want to fight with that kind of guy to the death.

On the one hand, as an old lady, she is indeed not fit for fighting now, and on the other hand, she is not sure that she can defeat the dangerous feathered serpent.

The fact that the Melander Foundation chose her as the main force for this operation is enough to prove Miss Quetzalcoatl's ability and strength.

Such a dangerous person... was actually attacked?

What on earth happened that caused the feathered serpent to make such a mistake?

Yara noticed that the problem was unusual, and her brows unconsciously furrowed slightly. She searched the room more carefully for clues.

then……

She noticed familiar scraps of paper.

"..."

It's letter paper.

The stationery she had received before.

Some guesses arose in Yara's mind.

She began to search the house purposefully for scraps of letter paper.

This was not an easy task. The room, which had been blown up and subjected to a firestorm, was in ruins. The letter paper was torn into an unknown number of pieces. Due to the impact of the battle, the final trace of the light papers was extremely difficult to confirm, and the distribution range was very wide.

After passing by all kinds of strange and inhumane corners such as behind the TV screen, between the curtains, above the chandelier, and on the torn down pillows, Yara, who had been busy for half a day, couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed.

Fortunately, most of the letter paper has finally been put together.

There was no writing on it, but—

Yara narrowed her eyes, extending her white fingertips to slowly sweep across the cracked letter paper. The remaining 'wind' collided with the artificially gathered floating Originium particles, and finally, a line of light blue space emerged on the gray letter paper.

1608

“…It’s the same number again.”

Yara murmured softly, her expression becoming increasingly solemn.

Miss Quetzalcoatl asked her to use this number to lure the opponent, and now she was attacked because of it. What exactly does this number mean?

Yara stared at the mark 1603 in the room, and suddenly realized something and looked in a certain direction in the corridor.

1608...

She carefully put the pieced letter paper into her pocket, then pushed open the door and looked at the door with the words [1608] nailed on it, which was quietly closed not far away in the quiet corridor.

Is that there?

Yara felt the dampness in her palms. Because of her nervousness, her palms were sweating.

Being able to make a dangerous feathered serpent mentioned twice, and being attacked by the enemy, and currently missing, she had to take the number and the door in front of her seriously.

What's in here?

A misunderstanding? A shocking secret? Or even... an opportunity that would make the Doctor owe someone a favor?

When she thought of the last possibility, Yara had to admit that her heart skipped a beat.

She had seen Kristen's plan and knew very well that if the plan succeeded, even if Kristen could return to Terra, she would never be able to return to Columbia.

The sky is Kristen's dream, and she knows it better than anyone.

When Kristen lost her parents, the girl was only 12 years old, and this year Kristen is 34 years old.

This means that the time she spent watching the girl grow up and supporting her life, studies and ideals has long surpassed that of her biological parents.

To her, Kristen was her daughter, regardless of blood or anything else. Her daughter could finally lay out the plan she hadn't shared with anyone, not even her closest friends and colleagues, without reservation. And she would also unconditionally support Kristen after she made the decision to pursue her long-cherished dream...even if that meant betraying the country she had long been loyal to.

Maybe after growing up, Kristen no longer needs her old lady's care, but even though she has never been married, she still has the consciousness of being a mother and some bad habits that cannot be changed...

Yara slowly crossed out the light screen that connected to the operator and took out her universal room card.

Although we suffered a crushing defeat in the previous round due to the doctor's design, this round might be the right one -!

"Click——"

The room card was swiped across the door lock, and as the unlocking sound rang out, Yara opened the door with the most agile movements of an old-fashioned agent who seemed to have returned to his youth. She rolled into the house tactically and looked at the scene in front of her with her nerves tensed.

A pair of emotionless green eyes filled her entire field of vision. The moment she saw those eyes, she realized that she was not facing a non-human being, but a monster that was absolutely alienated from "human".

She seemed to realize why a simple number like 1608 could be mentioned so many times by a dangerous feathered serpent. In order to pursue her own goals, her journey would inevitably be bumpy.

My limbs are weak, my mouth is dry, my head is dizzy, heat is rising in my cheeks and body, and unreal thoughts seem to be flooding into my mind...

She realized that she was rapidly losing her resistance. Facing this inhuman monster, a monster that no human could easily fight against, she had fallen into such a predicament simply because of a single glance. However... she also stepped through this door with the determination that she would never let go.

Yara bit the tip of her tongue fiercely. The sudden stinging pain cleared her chaotic brain for a moment. When she was about to seize this short and precious moment to take the next step -

"Yara?"

A man's voice came over, filled with surprise, some subtle emotions that were difficult to distinguish at the moment, and most importantly, a very familiar voice. "Why are you... uh, here?"

After recovering from the state where her vision and mind were occupied by those eyes, Yara heard the sound of the door slamming shut by the wind behind her. She looked at Luo Hang with a strange expression on the bed, and the two bodies stuck together in a terrible posture that minors absolutely could not see. Gradually, she opened her mouth little by little... and slowly revealed the same expression as Luo Hang.

"PhD……?"

She looked at Luo Hang, then looked at the woman who was still staring at her with emotionless eyes, her green hair covering her single eye again, and seemed to suddenly understand the other person's eyes.

It seems... that the problem is on my side...

As a veteran agent who had experienced all kinds of ups and downs, Yara also felt a rare sense of embarrassment and extreme shame.

Why was I so confident that I would barge into the room where the doctor had checked into with someone?!

He even thought he'd make the doctor owe him a favor, but now he's embarrassed from Columbia to Victoria! Forget about making someone owe him a favor, it's unacceptable not to apologize and treat him to a meal!

"Well, actually, I came here following a clue related to a certain agent. Doctor, do you have any ideas?"

Luo Hang looked at a famous movie star with subtle eyes, whose expression quickly returned to seriousness, as if nothing strange had happened.

As expected of a mature woman like her elder, her reaction was much faster and calmer than when Muir Seth showed up before.

Apart from the initial flash of surprise, he even suspected that if he had not been influenced by the shapeshifter, this genuine agent and movie star would have been able to suddenly break into an inappropriate room while performing a mission, just like the humorous plot in the movie, and apart from a brief surprise, he would not panic and asked for clues humorously, and continued to chase the next target in a cool and handsome manner.

Yara, who had the demeanor of a genuine secret agent, indeed stood up calmly in front of him, as if she had gotten the answer and was ready to leave.

Then--

Yara had just stood up when she suddenly swayed. She supported herself on the wall with one hand, and the blush on her cheeks became more and more obvious.

"I don't have any clues. After all, I've been staying in this room all day. But I'm afraid you're in trouble."

Luo Hang, feeling both amused and helpless, lifted the Transformer's legs and climbed up from the bed.

Fortunately, he had just changed the shapeshifter back from Muirseth's form, otherwise the fun would have been even worse.

Originally, he really wanted to continue studying the body of Miss Water Elf, but he hadn't studied it for long when the shapeshifter in front of him said that Muirseth asked her to protest to him, and he could feel it when he used her body to do bad things and left. It seemed that the previous mental pollution caused incomplete separation in a short period of time.

The result was that Yara came rushing in less than two minutes after he had transformed the shapeshifter back into form.

"Whatever you were planning to investigate, I suggest you put it aside for now and deal with your own problems first."

Luo Hang came to Yara who was leaning against the wall, reached out and touched the woman's hot forehead and cheeks as her breathing became more and more obvious, and said helplessly.

This wasn't a cold, but rather the contamination of the Shapeshifter's thoughts. Although Yara's condition wasn't as severe as that of Muirseth, where the Shapeshifter had captured her thoughts, it didn't mean she could just ignore it.

"If you go out like this, something terrible might happen. If your daughter knew, she would probably come to me herself."

Luo Hang shook his head.

"Ah ha ha……"

Yara gradually realized her problem and understood what Luo Hang meant. After imagining the possibility, she couldn't help but laugh dryly.

simply put--

She is developing ■ now.

As if she had been drugged, she could clearly feel a fire accumulating in her lower abdomen, burning more and more fiercely, and constantly sweeping towards her whole body and mind. Her eyes were still uncontrollably trying to glance at a certain part of Luo Hang's body as he stood naked in front of her.

The man's scent, mixed with the strange musk he had just left the bed with another woman, drifted into her sense of smell like accelerant. She could clearly feel an even stronger flame extending from her nose to her chest, and then her whole body went limp.

Now that you know all this, at least pay attention! !

Yara gritted her teeth, but her hands and feet could hardly support herself to stand against the wall.

Drugging is a method usually used secretly by some low-class people in places like bars and restaurants. For Yara, who is an agent, not only is such a trick unacceptable, but there is absolutely no reason for her to fall for it.

However, the method of 'drugging' she faced this time was completely beyond the comprehension of normal people. She was already old and this was the first time she experienced such a terrible feeling. Her mood was now as bad as it could be.
