Chapter 365 Searching for the Enemy
"Yes, just give us one room." The boy answered crisply.
"Just one room?"
"Yes." The green-skirted woman next to him apologized, "We want a more economical room, it doesn't matter if it's a little crowded."
"Oh~" The innkeeper glanced at them, took out a key and put it on the table, "Room 301, 120 a night, is it okay?"
"Yes."
The green-skirted woman counted the money in her hand carefully, handed it to the boss after confirming that it was correct, took the key and led everyone to the stairs.
They walked for a while before realizing that one person was missing, and turned around in confusion,
"Boss~" The boy was still there, blinking curiously, his bright eyes flashing like stars.
"What's wrong?"
"Your glasses are so beautiful, where did you buy them?"
"This one?" The boss pointed to the glasses on his nose and smiled, "I bought them from a businessman in Li Town, but he has left now."
"...Okay."
The beautiful boy looked disappointed, sighed, and followed the other three people up the stairs.
Watching the four people disappear on the stairs, the smile on the boss's face gradually faded. He calmly took off his glasses on his nose and disappeared into nothingness the next moment...
He looked outside the door of the inn, as if waiting for something.
...
"Number 031, Lin Xi?"
The breeze blew over the dark willows. Under the moonlight, Lin Xi looked at the two dusty figures in front of him and nodded slightly:
"It's me."
"Sorry, I was delayed on the road." One of them stretched out his hand, "I'm number 030, you can call me Lao Lu."
"It doesn't matter, [Circle] still has more than 40 hours of duration, which should be enough for us to catch him."
Lin Xi said while shaking hands with him, and then looked at another person.
"Number 029, Fenggui."
The other person spoke lightly, without any intention of shaking hands with him.
These two people are the members of [Floating Life] who came to support Lin Xi. At this moment, it has been almost seven hours since Lin Xi sent out the distress signal. The sky in the distance is pale. If he had not applied to descend to the [Circle] in advance, I am afraid that Chen Ling would have run away to who knows where.
"We also came here after receiving the call for help. What is the situation now?" Old Lu asked in confusion.
Lin Xi's face sank slightly, and he recounted the experience of his fight with Chen Ling. Both of them frowned at the same time.
"You mean, the enemy is a suspected Xishendao, but has extremely strong close combat ability... an unkillable cockroach?" Old Lu said with a strange expression.
"The summary is very accurate." Lin Xi nodded.
"So weird?"
"No matter how weird he is, he is still a third-level player." Feng Gui snorted coldly, "With the three of us working together, and being able to apply for targeted support at any time, even if he has three heads and six arms, he can't escape."
"That's true... Lin Xi, have you found where he is?"
"No." Lin Xi shook his head,
"However, he should have discovered the existence of the [circle] by now and knew that he couldn't escape from Liu Town... In addition, he was hit head-on by Mo Lei and should be seriously injured at this moment. If it's as I expected, he will most likely hide in an inn."
"That's easy. There are only a few inns in Liu Town. Just look for them one by one." Old Lu nodded in agreement, "As long as you ask if there are any strangers staying in during this time period, you can basically lock his location... Feng Gui, what do you think?"
"Let's do this first." Feng Gui said lightly.
With the same opinion, the three of them immediately began to search the inns in Liu Town. According to the normal hiding logic of the enemy, they started from the smallest and most hidden inns first. After searching three in a row, they still found nothing.
Most of the people living in these inns are men and women who are having an affair or having a private relationship, or businessmen who are short of money. In the past few hours, there have been no suspicious people staying.
"Strange... Is he not in the inn?" Old Lu said with some suspicion.
"If you want to break into a private house to hide, you must kill the residents inside, but he is injured, so it is a bit risky to do so... If there is any noise, I will know it soon." Lin Xi's thinking is very clear.
"In any case, search the inn first. If it doesn't work, search the private house. Anyway, Liu Town is so big, it won't take much time to turn it upside down."
"There is another inn in front, which is the largest in Liu Town. If this one is gone, it will really be gone."
The three of them walked into the inn while talking.
It was dawn at this moment. The inn was quiet. Most people were still asleep. The three walked to the counter of the inn, and a figure was sitting there dozing off.
As if hearing the three people coming, the boss opened his sleepy eyes and slowly stood up.
"Are you three going to check in?"
"No, we're here to get some information." Lin Xi took out a police ID from his pocket and placed it on the table.
Seeing the police ID, the boss's face suddenly changed, and he asked in a panic:
"...What are you asking?"
"In the past seven hours, has anyone checked in? Or is he alone?"
The boss frowned slightly, as if he was thinking seriously... He took out the notebook under the table, and ran his fingers over it one by one, and finally landed on a room number.
"Yes!"
Hearing this word, the three people's eyes suddenly lit up.
"What does he look like? What are his characteristics?" Lin Xi asked immediately.
"He looks like he is around 20 years old. He is quite ordinary and has no special features... By the way, when he came here, he seemed to be a little lame? He also seemed weak when he spoke and felt very tired." The boss recalled speaking.
A glint flashed in Lin Xi's eyes, and she said firmly: "It's him!"
"Hey, what are you looking for?" The boss's heart trembled, "There won't be any dangerous people living in my inn, right?"
"You don't have to worry about it." Lao Lu waved his hand, "Which room does he live in?"
"309."
"Walk."
The three of them immediately walked up the stairs.
"I didn't expect that this guy would be so brave and live here..." Lao Lu snorted coldly as he walked away.
"The most dangerous place is the safest place. There are many people living here, and sometimes it is a good cover." Lin Xi's eyes flashed, "It seems that it won't take more than forty hours to catch him... …”
"He was hit by Mo Lei. He will have to peel off his skin even if he doesn't die. He should be still recovering from his injuries. Please step more slowly and don't disturb him."
The three of them walked quietly through the third-floor corridor. The dim light of dawn filtered through the windows and covered the ground with a thin layer of gauze...
Finally, they stopped in front of a room door.
