Chapter 941: New Plot
After Fang Dongmei 'obediently' handed over her phone first, the other six people also gave up resisting and obediently put their phones into the plastic box.
Peter was very satisfied with the paleness and fear that were almost written on everyone's faces.
He nodded and gave a slightly creepy smile. "Very good. Now Hannah will take you to get the room divinations for your respective rooms. Everyone, put your luggage away and tidy up a bit."
He looked at his watch and said, "Go downstairs and meet in the lobby in half an hour. Time is running out, so please hurry up."
Hannah picked up a stack of room cards with an expressionless face and began to assign rooms.
Fang Dongmei was assigned a room with a girl who looked relatively young and had been quite optimistic on the bus.
The girl’s profile shows that her name is Zhao Yunhua, and she is also a recent graduate this year.
At this moment, the optimism on Zhao Yunhua's face had long disappeared. Only forced calmness and deep fear in his eyes remained on his pale face.
Several people followed Hannah in silence towards the elevator. As the elevator rose, the small space was filled with the smell of disinfectant and suffocating silence.
Fang Dongmei's glasses silently recorded the elevator buttons and floor instructions. She also took a special look at the room cards in Hannah's hand. The numbers on the four room cards showed three different floors.
Fang Dongmei's room was on the third floor. Hannah swiped open the door of room 307 and handed a room card to Fang Dongmei: "Meet in the lobby in half an hour, don't be late."
After saying that, she turned around without even looking at the two of them and continued to lead the others to another floor.
The door closed behind him with a dull click.
Almost at the moment the door closed, Zhao Yunhua turned around abruptly, her back against the door, her chest heaving violently, her face drained of all color. She deliberately lowered her voice, but one could still hear her voice trembling uncontrollably: "Sister Fang, this, this place is wrong! It's so wrong!
Where did they take Cao Yang? What do they want to do? Should we…"
"Shh!" Fang Dongmei put her index finger to her lips and began to scan the room. At the same time, she interrupted her in a relaxed tone, "Xiao Zhao, don't scare yourself.
Although this place is a bit remote and the rules are a bit strict, at least it is the company's own training base and the environment looks quite safe.
It's not like those shabby hotels out there where you have to worry about whether someone has secretly installed cameras in your room or something, right?"
As she spoke, she paced seemingly casually, but her eyes swept across every corner of the room like a searchlight - the ceiling, the lampshade, the TV cabinet, the air-conditioning vents, the bedside table...
Zhao Yunhua was stunned for a moment, and when he saw Fang Dongmei's vigilant eyes and the word "camera" she said in a deliberately raised voice, he instantly understood something!
The fear on her face instantly solidified, but she quickly suppressed it, forcing out a smile that was uglier than crying. She continued with Fang Dongmei's words, but her words were halting: "Ah, ah? Yes, yes! Sister Fang, you are right!
The company's own place is always... always safer than outside... hehe..."
As he spoke, he looked around the room.
In the operations center, everyone's heart was in their throat.
Luo Yong stared at the images sent back from Fang Dongmei's first-person perspective, without blinking, and quickly scanned every possible location where a miniature camera might be hidden.
He turned on his headset and said to Fang Dongmei, "Pay attention to the location of the bedside lamp switch, the curtain hooks, the sockets, and... the bathroom! Check the bathroom first!"
In fact, there was a scanner for checking electronic devices in Fang Dongmei's luggage, but Zhao Yunhua was there at the moment, so it was not convenient for her to take it out and use it.
Fang Dongmei turned her gaze to the bathroom.
She pretended to be relaxed and said to Zhao Yunhua, "I've been sitting in the car for so long, I'll go free up some memory first." Then she pushed open the bathroom door.
The bathroom is not big, standard hotel configuration.
Fang Dongmei walked to the sink and turned on the faucet.
Amid the sound of rushing water, her eyes swept over the edge of the mirror, the toiletries rack, the towel rack, the shower head...
Finally, her eyes fixed on a power socket on the side of the sink, close to the wall.
The socket looks very ordinary, with a white plastic panel.
"Yes! It's the socket!" Luo Yong reminded, "There's an abnormal red light flashing in the socket on the right side of the sink! It looks like a pinhole camera!"
At this time, I also noticed that there seemed to be an extremely faint red light in the socket of the socket panel, flashing slowly!
I have to say that this camera is installed very secretly. It is almost impossible to find it unless you look for it deliberately and the angle is just right!
Fang Dongmei obviously noticed it too. She remained calm, squeezed a large amount of hand sanitizer, rubbed out a lot of foam, and then shook the foam on her hands vigorously. A large amount of foam was "accidentally" thrown onto the socket, blocking the faint red light.
Then, she picked up the hair dryer on the sink, as if to dry the sink that she had wet, and turned on the switch.
The hair dryer made a loud noise, causing several colleagues who had been listening to the video to suddenly take off their headphones.
They didn't put their headphones back on until Fang Dongmei left and put the hair dryer on the sink and walked to the bathroom door.
Fang Dongmei opened the bathroom door and waved to Zhao Yunhua, who was standing in the room at a loss, and motioned her to come in.
Zhao Yunhua didn't understand what was going on, so he hesitated for a moment before walking in.
As soon as she came in, Fang Dongmei closed the bathroom door.
The noise of the hair dryer roared in the small space, making the colleagues who were monitoring frown.
Fang Dongmei leaned close to Zhao Yunhua's ear and lowered her voice. She spoke very quickly but clearly, "Xiao Zhao, listen to me. Things are very wrong right now, but remember, no matter what happens, stay calm. Don't cry or make a fuss, and don't get into any direct conflict with them! Only by surviving can there be hope!"
Her words made Zhao Yunhua burst into tears. She covered her mouth tightly and nodded vigorously after a while, her voice still tinged with tears. "The people who picked us up weren't arranged by the company at all. They're human traffickers, right?"
At first, I was still wondering how Fang Dongmei would explain the current situation to her, but I didn't expect that Zhao Yunhua had already taken the initiative to imagine the plot of being robbed by human traffickers.
This saved Fang Dongmei the trouble of explaining. After all, no normal person would believe that the company was the mastermind behind the incident.
As expected, Fang Dongmei immediately echoed her words. "I thought so too," she said in a low voice. "The person who picked us up at the airport must have been switched. We're being targeted for some unknown reason!"
"But the license plate is real. It was in the notice before departure." Zhao Yunhua was still confused. "Could the person who picked us up at the airport have been killed?" At this point, she widened her eyes in horror and covered her mouth again.
