Chapter 727: Chapter 727: Awakening at Tomorrow’s Inn

When confronted with their native language, people often understand it more deeply and think more widely. However, for foreigners, Chinese characters, no matter how simple or complex, may just appear to them as a series of different shapes.

Bai Youwei examined the characters once more, thought for a moment, and then took out another sheet of paper. Using a pencil, she marked the locations of all the guests in the inn.

First was the second floor—-

Room 201 was Su Man, room 202 was the woman with a baby, room 203 was Robert, room 204 was Willard, and room 205 was the bald man.

Then was the third floor—-

Room 301 was Zhu Shu, room 302 was the businessman, room 303 was the basketball boy, room 304 was Lu Yuwen, and room 305 was the murdered female guest.

Lastly was the fourth floor—-

Room 401 was Lin Kui, room 402 was the effeminate man, room 403 was Yan Qingwen, room 404 was Carl, and room 405 was the middle-aged woman with the Tarot card.

…

Interestingly, the first room on each floor, i.e., 201, 301, 401, was occupied by a subordinate of Yan Qingwen.

This meant that if the people in the rooms behind ever wanted to use the stairs, they would most likely be spotted by Yan Qingwen’s men because the stairs were located right next to rooms 201, 301, and 401.

—-This convenience was probably granted by the game to Yan Qingwen. It was just unfortunate that he was abruptly arrested before he could take advantage of it.

Having finished her sketch, Bai Youwei decided to inspect the so-called crime scene on the fourth floor.

Su Man stayed behind to take care of Lu Yuwen, while Zhu Shu accompanied Bai Youwei upstairs.

The staircase was not carpeted, so footsteps echoed clearly.

Bai Youwei was increasingly convinced that the woman in room 202, after luring others out with her screams, hid in the nearest room 402. Otherwise, if she had run downstairs, her footsteps would have been heard.

So, could the guests in rooms 202 and 402 be Robert’s subordinates?

…Well, not necessarily.

When the victim fell at Yan Qingwen’s doorstep, the crime scene had been set up in advance. Therefore, the actual location of their death must have been elsewhere. After the victim had died, their body was moved to the fourth floor to mislead Yan Qingwen.

To move the body, the woman from room 202 would have needed help. She couldn’t have done it alone.

Who could it have been?

As Bai Youwei stared at the dried blood stains on the door, she pondered in silence.

Hurried footsteps echoed from the direction of the stairs—-

Su Man came running up, telling Bai Youwei and Zhu Shu, “Lu Yuwen has woken up!”

Bai Youwei paused for a moment, then immediately said, “Let’s go, let’s go check on him.”

The three women quickly went downstairs and returned to Lu Yuwen’s room.

Lu Yuwen was struggling to sit up, propping himself up on his elbows.

Su Man poured him a cup of water.

His hands were still numb and unable to grip the cup, so Su Man fed him the water bit by bit.

Despite her carefree personality, her feeding motions were incredibly smooth, as if she had done so before.

Bai Youwei asked Lu Yuwen, “How much do you remember before you passed out?”

Yuwen leaned against the bed, taking a moment to recuperate. He seemed more lucid now than before, not as dazed, it’s just that he was exceptionally tired.

“…I remember finding this paper in the flowerpot, I had just turned around when I was attacked…” After a bit of thought, he said faintly, “The assailant was a man…his sleeve… was white.”

White sleeves?

Zhu Shu hesitated, “Even if we’re sure the sleeve was white, we can’t necessarily identify the suspect as the guests in rooms 302, 203, 204 all have white sleeves on their clothes.”

Bai Youwei was puzzled, “Knowing there’s a risk of you seeing him, why didn’t your attacker finish you off? Even if time was of the essence, dealing with a paralysed man shouldn’t be that hard…”
