Starting Sign-In from a Billionaire God-Chapter 916 - 915:
A small hotel, because it's located in a rather remote area, seems to have no guests. A middle-aged uncle is the owner of this small hotel, sitting at the front desk, looking down at his phone. Whatever he saw, it made him chuckle quietly.
"Are you the hotel owner?"
Suddenly, two people walked in from outside, the man was unbelievably handsome, and the woman was incredibly beautiful.
The question came from this beautiful woman. She was indeed very pretty, with a perfect face and an even more perfect figure, making the hotel owner's eyes light up.
The hotel owner immediately put on an enthusiastic smile: "Are you two getting a room?"
Seeing his slightly ambiguous smile, it was not hard to tell he must have thought Lin Fan and Loli came here for that kind of thing.
Loli also understood the hotel owner's misunderstanding, her face turned red. She wouldn't mind doing something with her idol... but she was here to investigate a case at the moment.
"No need to be shy, it's quite normal here. Don't be fooled by how remote my place is, some people just like secluded spots, afraid of running into acquaintances! My guests are mostly couples, young lovers like you, or those who can't show their faces, you know... hehe!" The hotel owner said with a laugh, getting more excited as he spoke.
Loli interrupted him: "I'm not, don't misunderstand!"
The hotel owner didn't believe her and said: "No worries, rest assured, my place is very safe. If you don't want to be caught, you can opt out of registering with an ID, but without an ID, you'll need to pay an additional 100 yuan. It's not expensive, a conscience price. You can ask around, mine is the cheapest. That's why my place is very popular. Don't be fooled by how remote it is, it's usually full."
The hotel owner enthusiastically pitched his little hotel, eager to have Loli and Lin Fan stay over, his enthusiasm bordering on fervor.
Lin Fan clarified again: "Alright, boss, no need to waste your breath, we're really not here to stay."
The hotel owner looked a bit disappointed. It seemed they didn't want to stay here. He wondered what part they might be dissatisfied with.
Trying to recover, the hotel owner said: "I'm serious, this place is very nice, very comfortable to stay, and the soundproofing is excellent. I've invested heavily; trust me, unless the price is the issue? One night here is 100 yuan, and without an ID, it's 200. Tell you what, since you look like newcomers, I'll give you a discount. If you don't register with an ID, I won't charge you, plus a 10% discount, just 90 yuan a night. How about it? Trust me, you won't find a better place. Mine is the best. If you don't believe me, you can look elsewhere, and I guarantee you'll come back. So, consider getting a room?"
The hotel owner continued with his rambling, endlessly persuasive comments, even offering a discount.
Lin Fan and Loli had never encountered such an enthusiastic owner before.
Upon hearing the owner mention the good soundproofing, the immediately understanding Loli blushed even more.
This hotel owner must have misunderstood them, thinking they were a couple out for some unspeakable activities.
To stop the owner from continuing, Loli simply took out her police ID.
"I'm a police officer," Loli said coldly.
The owner, once full of enthusiasm, suddenly froze with embarrassment on his face, awkwardly saying, "Turns out it's the police. Officers, please don't misunderstand. What I said earlier was just a joke. We strictly follow the rules here; registration with ID is a must, there's no such thing as not needing one."
Loli responded coldly: "Your non-compliant business practice is something we'll deal with later. I'm not here for that reason."
The hotel owner paused, then delightedly asked, "Officer, what is the reason for your visit?"
He bragged about not needing an ID for registration and charging an extra 100 yuan, yet never considered that on the other side was the police, equivalent to confessing illegal activities directly to them.
Now knowing Loli wasn't targeting him, he could finally breathe easier and start thinking about a strategy.
Loli asked: "Did three men and one woman check in just now?"
Three men and one woman—such a combination left a deep impression on the hotel owner. He immediately responded, "Yes, there was. Three men, one woman. I said to myself, young people today are really open. They play like this? I'm getting old...it seems they're much better at having fun. Officer, is what they're doing problematic? What do you need them for?"
Loli asked: "Which room are they in?"
The hotel owner replied, "I need to check the room records."
So the hotel owner lowered his head to check the records.
Lin Fan glanced over and clearly saw everything. He had top-level insight; nothing could escape his eyes.
"They checked in at 5 PM, meaning they got the room before heading out for supper. It's evident this was a premeditated act," Lin Fan said.
Loli gritted her teeth and said, "Unbelievable. Those three beasts, getting a room ready, then getting the woman drunk to bring her here to violate. It's disgusting! We have to stop them quickly!"
Just then, several police officers walked in, all colleagues of Loli.
"Lily, is it here?" the leading officer asked.
Loli nodded and said: "It's here, room 303. The suspect is currently planning to assault the victim."
"Ahem..." The leading officer suddenly coughed several times, saying, "Sorry, I've caught a cold."
Loli said: "Captain Jin, you're really dedicated. Even with a cold, you're still working?"
The leading officer said: "What's the big deal? When I'm needed, whether it's something minor like a cold or even a broken leg, I must stay on duty. Enough about that, Lily, how do you plan to proceed? Should we rush in directly?"
Loli replied: "Go up now and catch them red-handed. I'm concerned they might notice that call and flee."
The leading officer said: "Understood, let's begin the operation!"
So, the officers quietly headed upstairs.
Lin Fan stayed at the back.
"Hey buddy, what's going on? Who are those three men and one woman?" the hotel owner asked.
Lin Fan answered: "They're criminals. They planned to bring the woman here to assault her while you remained clueless. Do you have any requirements for your guests? As long as they pay, you let them stay, even if they break the law, as long as they pay the price, you even skip ID registration?"
The hotel owner was a bit embarrassed: "Well..."
Lin Fan chuckled: "Don't worry, I won't do anything to you..."
Just as he was speaking, Lin Fan suddenly frowned, his gaze falling on the owner's phone, which was placed face down on the table.
Lin Fan, with his superior insight, noticed the owner looking at his phone when they entered, quickly placing it face down in a somewhat flustered manner.
Just now, Lin Fan heard a strange sound from the owner's phone.
"It's nothing..." the owner chuckled, trying to pick up the phone to put it away.
But his hand wasn't as fast as Lin Fan's, who had already snatched the phone up.
