The next day, Tang Weiwei called a room maid to come in and change her bed sheets and quilt covers.
Pretending to be casual, he asked the waitress, "Is there a boss in your hotel named Shen Xiaobei?"
“Yes, you know our Mr. Shen?”
"I know her, but I haven't seen her in several years. Hey, doesn't she live in Jing City? She probably doesn't come here often, right?"
"Ms. Shen lives in Jing City, but she usually comes here once a month."
"Oh, once a month, then when does she usually come every month? I haven't seen her for a few years, and I really want to see her and catch up with her."
"Mr. Shen usually comes over at the end or beginning of the month, but it's not particularly fixed."
"Oh, so is she coming over this month?"
"Not yet."
"oh!"
After hearing what the waiter said, Tang Weiwei decided to stay in this hotel until she saw Shen Xiaobei coming.
When she comes, she will give her a "welcome gift".
Thinking of this, Tang Weiwei curled up the corners of her mouth and was already impatient to meet her.
Shen Xiaobei and Gao Hongmian stayed in Yanshan for more than half a month before returning to Jing City.
After resting for a few days in Beijing and finishing her work there, she came to Shenzhen alone at the end of the month.
As usual, we stayed at the hotel where Mu Fangting worked.
She usually only stayed for a few days each time, so she didn't have a dedicated guest room for herself, she just stayed in random rooms.
However, the front desk staff knew that she liked to stay on the sixth floor.
This time, she was arranged to Room 606, not far from Tang Weiwei's room.
The next morning, when Tang Weiwei was about to go downstairs to the restaurant for a buffet breakfast, she had just turned the corner of the guest room corridor when she saw a back that looked somewhat familiar.
A room attendant happened to pass by and nodded respectfully, "Good morning, Mr. Shen!"
Tang Weiwei immediately concluded that it was undoubtedly Shen Xiaobei.
After Shen Xiaobei came downstairs, she went downstairs, then went to the door of the restaurant and glanced inside, and found that Shen Xiaobei was holding a plate and picking up food in the buffet area.
She didn't want to be discovered now. She knew that this hotel was owned by her, so she left quietly.
I went to a breakfast shop outside to have breakfast alone.
After breakfast, I went shopping for a while and only bought an envelope at a stationery store.
Tang Weiwei returned to the hotel.
After entering her room, she immediately counted out a thousand yuan from her bag and put it neatly into the envelope she had bought.
At noon, she prepared to go out for dinner.
As she walked out of the room, she saw a waitress pushing a linen cart passing by in the corridor. She immediately walked over and said with a smile, "Waiter, please clean room 613 for me."
"Yeah, okay!"
After giving the order, Tang Weiwei took advantage of the waitress not paying attention and put the envelope containing one thousand yuan into the linen cart.
Then he left calmly.
It was not until the evening that she returned to her hotel room.
As soon as I came back, I closed the door.
Tang Weiwei deliberately messed up the quilt and pillows on the bed, opened the zipper of her luggage bag, and turned the clothes inside into a mess.
Then she pretended to be anxious and walked out of the room.
He grabbed a waiter in the corridor and angrily ordered her, "I'm the guest of room 613. Call your manager here immediately!"
"The money I left in the room is missing. I suspect your waiter stole it!"
"Ah, how is that possible? How much money have you lost?"
"One thousand yuan!"
"Ah, so many? Wait a moment, I'll call the manager right away!"
Seeing the waitress so shocked, Tang Weiwei guessed that the waitress must not have handed over the extra thousand yuan in her linen cart at noon, nor told anyone about it.
He must have been greedy and secretly embezzled the money.
This is exactly what she wants!
She was worried that the waitress was not a greedy person. As long as she was greedy, there would be a good show to watch.
After a while, Mu Fangting came over.
This was the first time she encountered a guest losing money in the room.
And he lost so much money, which is a huge amount that is not even as much as the annual salary of a room attendant.
She was still a little nervous, afraid that she might not handle it well and ruin the hotel's reputation.
However, in front of guests, she still habitually maintains the composure of a housekeeping manager.
"Hello, miss, our waiter told me that you lost a thousand dollars in your room?"
"Yes, Manager Mu!"
"I just got back from outside and wanted to take a shower. When I was looking for a change of clothes in my bag, I found that an envelope that I had put at the bottom of the bag was missing."
"There's a thousand dollars in that envelope!"
"I searched my bag and the room thoroughly but couldn't find it. I suspect your room attendant stole it!"
"I was only out for a few hours, and this happened. How can we, the guests, feel at ease staying in your hotel? You must give me an explanation!"
Tang Weiwei said to Mu Fangting with an indignant look on her face.
She was completely different from the friendliness she showed me on the first day we checked into the hotel.
"Miss, don't worry. If your money is really missing from our room, I will definitely investigate and return your lost property to you!"
"Did you ask the waiter to clean your room today?"
"When I went out to eat around 12 o'clock in the afternoon, I casually called a waiter in to clean up."
"Oh, do you remember what this waiter looks like?"
"If you see it, you should be able to recognize it."
"Okay, then I'll call over all the waiters working in the guest rooms on this floor today, and you can identify them in person."
"Okay, hurry up!"
Tang Weiwei said a little impatiently.
After Mu Fangting politely apologized to her, she immediately went with a housekeeping supervisor to find the waiters who were working the morning and afternoon shifts on this floor today.
The room attendants work in three shifts.
The morning shift ends at 5pm, and the afternoon shift starts at 2:30pm. The afternoon shift hasn't ended yet.
According to the time Tang Weiwei said, it should be the early shift waiter who entered her room to clean.
However, it cannot be completely ruled out that the mid-shift waiter did not enter her room in the afternoon.
So, to be on the safe side, Mu Fangting first asked the waiters on the mid-shift one by one whether anyone had entered Room 613 in the afternoon.
They all denied that they had ever been there.
Mu Fangting observed the expressions in their eyes when they answered and felt that they did not seem to be lying.
He immediately rushed to the staff dormitory.
On the way to the staff dormitory, she kept praying in her heart that the three waitresses on the early shift would not have gone out and would have stayed in the dormitory.
Otherwise, this matter would be really tricky!
