The staff took them past the carousel and through the path behind it.
This path is clearly a dead end on the map, and at the end is a tall hedge with a few small purple flowers.
But when the staff took them to the end, they found a door in the middle of the hedge. Like the mysterious door to wonderland in fairy tales, they could push it open by gently turning the handle.
There was no dazzling light as imagined. The world inside the door was in darkness, with a crescent moon hanging high in the sky.
There is a main road right at the entrance. Take a dark red passenger vehicle and you will arrive at the gate of the Wonderful Hotel safely.
Two greeters stood at the door, dressed the same as the staff who had brought them in. Wearing white gloves and with a standard, copy-pasted smile on their faces, they bowed and invited them in.
The most eye-catching thing in the hotel lobby is the huge round clock facing you as soon as you enter.
Its hour and minute hands feature cartoon images of a rabbit and a wolf respectively, indicating that it is currently five o'clock in the afternoon.
"It took us so long? It's so late." Liu Yingying glanced at the dark sky outside and changed her tone: "It's dark so early?"
"Dear tourists, please come to the front desk to check in." Perhaps annoyed that they had been standing at the door without moving, the receptionist reminded them.
"Oh well."
Zhang Bufan responded, and the seven people walked towards the hotel front desk.
"Hello, check in."
The front desk staff stared at them without moving their hands.
Qiu Yue thought for a moment, took out the card booklet, and repeated: "Check in."
This time he finally responded, showing off his eight perfect white teeth with a standard smile. "Okay, please wait."
One card book is used to register one room. There are seven people and seven card books, which means seven rooms. The time for each room is one day.
"Is there no double room?" Yan Bei asked, holding her room card.
"Today's double and multi-person rooms are fully booked." The staff member handed out room cards for a moment, then narrowed his eyes and said, "If you need one, we can reserve one for you tomorrow. How many rooms do you need?"
"Two double rooms and one triple room, is that okay?" Yu Waiwai thought of something and asked tentatively.
"I'm sorry, the triple room is already booked for tomorrow. If you don't mind, you can reserve a triple room for the day after tomorrow."
Now everyone understood that they could stay in a room with several people by swiping a few cards.
"Okay, thank you." Yu Waiwai nodded and looked at the number 1-1080 on the room card.
"Here are the hotel brochures." As he walked inside, Zheng Yi happened to see a ground-standing rack in the corner, which was filled with hotel brochures.
On the black cover, there is a round bright moon, and below it is written "Wonderful Hotel" in fancy white font.
Turning over the page, the first page showed a photo of the hotel's exterior. The silver-white building had eight floors, and its brilliance even outshone the moon in the dark night.
The second page records the history of the hotel. Its founder is "Mr. Gray Wolf". It is said that he found inspiration under the moon and then hired someone to build this hotel.
The hotel originally had no name because "Mr. Gray Wolf" passed away when the hotel was half built. Later, the hotel was taken over by the current owner "Mr. White Wolf" and cooperated with the Wonderful Amusement Park to become the Wonderful Hotel.
The lobby is 0, and the floors above are 1-8, so their rooms tonight are actually on the 2nd floor.
"Welcome to the Wonderful Hotel. We hope the Eternal Night can help you have a good night's sleep." Qiu Yue read the hotel slogan on the brochure word by word.
It's eternal night. No wonder it's so dark outside at five o'clock. It's not that the sun sets early, but that there is no daylight here at all.
What about the amusement park outside? There are no clocks there, and the sky seems to always be blue. Perhaps the Wonderful Amusement Park and the Wonderful Hotel are the opposites, one with endless daylight and the other with eternal night.
The hotel's elevator is very spacious, so it seems that it is not a problem to use it to transport goods.
I pressed the button for the first floor and watched the number on the screen jump from 0 to 1 rabbit as the elevator door slowly opened.
Seven people walked out of the elevator one after another, and there was a numbered sign on the wall in front of them to guide them in the direction.
From 1-1080 onwards, go right.
The hotel corridor is about two meters wide and three meters high, with no decorations in the middle.
The identical light green floral wallpaper paired with the long red carpet can easily make you dizzy if you walk in it for a long time.
Moreover, the lights on the ceiling of the corridor are spaced quite far apart. There is a section where no light can reach every few meters, and this cycle repeats.
The seven of them had consecutive rooms from 1-1080 to 1-1087, which made them feel a little more at ease.
We are so close, so we can help each other if anything happens.
Qiu Yue's room number is 1-1084. She entered very smoothly using the room card.
When it senses someone entering the house, the power is instantly connected, all the lights turn on, and the air purifier starts.
"Just knock if you need anything." She opened the door and reminded others, because she couldn't find any button at the door that might be the doorbell.
"When are we going to eat?" asked Liu Yingying, who lived next door to her. The hotel restaurant was on the first floor, and they saw the restaurant sign when they got on the elevator just now.
"Check the room first. If everything is ok, just wait in the hallway until everyone is gathered. Don't act alone."
The room is simply furnished with a bathroom on the left and a built-in wardrobe on the right. There is a small countertop next to it where the kettle for boiling water is placed.
Walking in, there is a clean white bed with a bedside table with a desk lamp and a telephone on it.
The curtains were drawn and there was no scenery outside, so Qiu Yue simply didn't open them. She was not in the mood to appreciate the endless night scenery.
There was a large TV hanging on the wall opposite the bed, and she saw the remote control on the TV cabinet below.
"Can we still play cartoons?"
When I pressed the power button, a boot animation of a rabbit and a wolf chasing each other appeared on the TV. What's interesting is that at the beginning it was the wolf chasing the rabbit, but later it became the rabbit chasing the wolf.
The boot animation ended, but the animation that Qiu Yue had imagined did not appear on the screen. Instead, there was only a reminder with white text on a red background.
My dear visitors, to protect others' privacy, please do not enter other people's rooms.
My dear visitors, for your health, please do not leave the room after lights out at 10 o'clock and have a good rest.
My dear tourists, please refrain from making loud noises in the hotel.
My dear tourists, please do not stay in the corridor for too long.
My dear tourists, our staff will never disturb you without any phone notification.
My dear tourists, please pay attention to the food you order when eating in the cafeteria.
Finally, my dear tourists, please come again!
