"What's wrong?" Dai Ze walked over.
Song Xi picked up a few yellow hairs from the floor and suddenly asked, "Do you have a cat?"
"What?"
Song Xi slowly stood up, looked at the door of room A267 in front of her, and raised her hand to knock.
"Song Xi!" Dai Ze reached out to stop her. "What are you doing? Did you forget what you just said?"
"Brother Dai, is knocking on a door considered a violation of privacy?"
Dai Ze frowned. "Think about it, how sure are you that someone is inside?"
Song Xi thought seriously for a few seconds. "Twenty percent?"
"..."
Although Dai Ze was angry, he still pulled Song Xi behind him to protect her and instructed, "Don't say anything later."
But there was no reaction. The other side of the door was eerily quiet.
This time, Dai Ze knocked a few more times himself, with more force than Song Xi's knocks, but still no response.
Song Xi said softly, "Now I'm fifty percent sure."
Dai Ze lowered his eyebrows when he heard this.
Song Xi asked, "Brother Dai, can you kick the door open?"
"...What do you think I am?"
"Superman!"
"............"
Dai Ze was speechless, looked at her deeply, and said, "Are you sure it's this room?"
Song Xi squeezed her mask. "Not sure, I said, fifty percent."
Dai Ze took a deep breath, closed his eyes, as if making a big decision, and walked back.
"Where are you going?"
He didn't look back. "Stay put, don't go anywhere. I'll be right back!"
Dai Ze planned to go to the front desk to see if he could get the room card for this room. Although it was unlikely, he inexplicably believed Song Xi.
After taking only a couple of steps, a room door suddenly opened.
A man wearing glasses threw a card at him.
The card fell at his feet, with a string of numbers on it: "A267".
It was the room card for that room!
Dai Ze was greatly surprised.
The man pushed his glasses up and shrugged. "It has nothing to do with me. Someone ordered it."
He then whispered, "He's stubborn and it's not easy to help him directly, so hiss—"
The man behind him didn't say anything further. He seemed to have been hit by something.
His gentlemanly image was immediately broken. He covered his head and slammed the door shut. "Lou Yuming, you bastard!"
Dai Ze: !? President Lou!
When Dai Ze returned to room A267, Song Xi was lying on the floor, looking through the gap in the door.
Dai Ze put his hand to his forehead. "Even though there's no one around, can you at least pay a little attention to your image..."
Song Xi exclaimed, "Ah," not understanding. Seeing the room card in his hand, she said in surprise, "Not bad, Brother Dai, you're full of hidden talents!"
Dai Ze smiled awkwardly, hesitating whether to tell her that President Lou was nearby and that he got the card from him. Song Xi immediately made a "ding" sound and opened the door.
The room was a mess, giving the impression of a robbery.
A cup was overturned on the floor. Song Xi saw several paw prints.
Suddenly, there was a commotion from the bedroom.
A big orange cat pounced over with a "meow." Song Xi reacted quickly, sidestepping.
But Dai Ze, who was behind her, had no time to react. He felt a large orange mass descend from the sky.
"Ah—!"
"Meow!"
The screams of the cat and the man echoed in the living room.
Two seconds later, there were two scratches on Dai Ze's face. Fortunately, the cat's claws weren't sharp, so it didn't cut too deeply.
"Xiao Chenzi, where did you run off to again!"
Ahead, a small, pink figure ran out.
Song Xi saw it clearly and froze, "…Ling Ling?"
