Chapter 986: Chapter 487: Serious? Straightforward
Luo Fei’s words instantly caused cold sweat to break out on the other’s forehead.
"Sorry, Mr. Luo, we didn’t expect this to happen. I sincerely apologize to you and the two victims."
"It’s okay."
Luo Fei’s tone was calm.
After all, he didn’t mean to trouble the other party.
Besides, according to the current evidence, solving the case is crucial.
"Mr. Luo, it’s best that you don’t mind. In fact, we really hope to solve the case soon."
"After all, the impact of public opinion is becoming more severe. This is a huge blow to our local tourism industry."
Seeing the other being relatively candid, directly expressing their thoughts.
Luo Fei also nodded.
"Sir, if possible. We would like to see the room where the couple stayed earlier. If we can find any clues, it would help us make further deductions. What do you think?"
"Sure, Mr. Luo, follow me, this way please."
But just looking at the manager, sweating profusely, face full of tension.
Luo Fei still smiled and comforted.
"Manager, you really don’t need to be this nervous. Or is it that after the two encountered danger, other guests have stayed in that room? Are you worried that we will get angry seeing a tainted scene?"
Ah Runji hurriedly explained.
"That’s not the case, Mr. Luo. I can guarantee that. Since the news about the couple broke out, no one has stayed in that room. Now, even the surveillance originally placed on both sides of the corridor is fully aimed at that room 24 hours a day."
"Daily, there are duty police officers who come to specifically inspect the room to ensure no one randomly enters it or attempts to destroy the scene."
"So except for me, the manager, and the local police chief, no one else can obtain the key to that room."
The manager said, feeling a bit embarrassed.
"But it’s quite bizarre. Since the previous incident, more and more guests have come here to check-in, wanting to stay."
"I’m well aware that most people want to get close to where the victims stayed. It’s just a hype, or simply a matter of satisfying their curiosity. This really impacts the hotel negatively."
Looking at the manager Ah Runji with a somewhat embarrassed expression.
Feeling quite uneasy and very apologetic.
Feeling unfortunate for Song Qingyu.
On the side, Li Yu couldn’t help but sneer.
"Manager, your words seem to suggest that you’re feigning innocence despite benefitting from the situation."
"Clearly, you profited considerably from this incident. Your revenue doubled with continuous foot traffic. What troubles could you possibly have?"
Clearly, to Li Yu.
The manager is deliberately complaining.
Yet, in reality, he’s using this opportunity to rake in money.
Plus, it’s peak tourist season.
He might be smiling secretly right now.
These words are meant to prevent Luo Fei and others from noticing anything.
After all, appearances must be maintained.
But looking at Li Yu.
The tone was rather dismissive as if thinking he was just putting on an act.
The manager had to explain.
"Officer, although our hotel gained some economic benefit from this incident. It’s only temporary, not permanent. Most people view us mockingly."
"So until the case is fully exposed. Our hotel’s reputation might plummet, leading to having to sell the place cheaply, possibly even unable to sell."
The manager had some self-awareness, felt a bit embarrassed mentioning it.
Both the hotel’s reputation and management are precarious.
He sincerely hopes the case is solved soon.
Li Yu also realized.
She had spoken rashly earlier.
Whereas Luo Fei.
Entered the room cordoned off with police tape.
Scanned the area.
Confirmed it’s a roughly 40-square-meter double suite.
Took some photos in the bathroom.
Then said.
"Let’s go, Li Yu, seems like there’s no clues here."
???
Such a sudden decision made Li Yu’s eyes widen instantly.
"Mr. Luo, are we leaving already?"
Knowing.
Luo Fei had only been inside for ten minutes.
And now turning to leave.
Usually, when investigating.
Luo Fei would meticulously inspect every corner of the room, leaving no stone unturned.
But seeing Li Yu somewhat surprised.
Unable to believe they made a decision so soon.
Luo Fei just smiled and shook his head.
"Li Yu, I told you. We’re not here to investigate. We’re just here for sightseeing, to view the room interior."
"If we find clues, great. But if nothing turns up. No reason to linger unnecessarily, right?"
Luo Fei asked, thoughts crystal clear.
Tone calm and composed.
Realizing he is confident and prepared.
