"Zhouzhou, last night when I was sleeping, I felt someone pulling my hair, and my scalp still hurts when I woke up this morning." He Tiantian suddenly remembered that she hadn't told Shen Yizhou about this yet, and the pain felt so real.
Shen Yizhou frowned and looked at the head of the bed. "Try sleeping in my room tonight. If you still have this feeling, let's switch rooms."
He Tiantian nodded. It was sunny outside, and the sun was so bright it was blinding. He Tiantian got out of bed and pulled the sunshade curtain closed. "Zhouzhou, I want to sleep for a while. Do you want to sleep?"
"Go to sleep." Shen Yizhou turned off the TV and turned up the air conditioner temperature a little. He then went to sleep in the spot where He Tiantian had been sleeping.
He Tiantian fell asleep after a moment's rest.
Shen Yizhou stared at the ceiling, needing to figure out what to do next.
The more he thought about it, the more his head ached. He simply got up and went to the balcony, picked up a cigarette and started smoking. He looked at the balcony next door and fell into deep thought.
The balconies of the two rooms are very close together, practically connected; you just need the courage to climb over them.
He suddenly realized something, stood up, glanced at the sleeping He Tiantian, took a room key, and went out.
After taking the elevator to the 13th floor, Shen Yizhou took out the room card for room 1306 from his pocket, swiped it to open the door, and went inside.
The smell of smoke and alcohol had dissipated by half, and he walked straight to the balcony, but after thinking for a moment, he came back.
He walked over to the TV, squatted down, and opened the cabinet door below. Inside was a small refrigerator. He opened the refrigerator door and found three bottles of untouched liquor. He examined the bottles carefully; they were the same kind Qin Zeyu had bought.
He took out his phone, snapped a picture, and put it back. Shen Yizhou walked to the balcony, then climbed over and stepped onto the balcony of another room.
He opened the balcony door and went inside. There was no one there at the moment, but judging from the turned-up blankets and the disposable slippers on the floor, he knew that someone was living there.
Shen Yizhou went to the bathroom and, sure enough, found a used baby diaper in the trash can. It was the same one they had found in Tian Leyu's room. There was also used toothpaste on the sink. He rummaged through the towels but found nothing else.
He took a picture, left the bathroom and went into his room. Just as he was about to check the trash can next to his desk, he heard voices outside the door.
Shen Yizhou walked to the balcony, gently closed the door, leaned against the side, and turned on his phone to record.
With a beep, the door opened.
"I'm telling you, Zhe, you're really doing Xiaoyu a disservice."
"Do you think I wanted this? The appearance of Lao Gao and his gang last night was just to warn me, you know that!"
"Why don't you think about what you've done? Why would someone warn you?"
"I really didn't mean it. Jiang Zifeng, speaking from the heart, I've been incredibly good to my brothers."
"Ah Zhe, this isn't a matter of good or bad, the important thing is that Tian Leyu is dead! She's dead, do you even know that?!"
There was a temporary silence inside, broken only by the sound of a lighter lighting a cigarette.
Ah Zhe exhaled a puff of smoke, his eyes vacant; he hadn't expected things to turn out this way.
"I wanted to tell Xiaoyu, but if I told Lao Gao and his gang, they would kill me, and Xiaoyu would kill me too. I don't want to die, Jiang Zifeng!"
"If you didn't want to die, why did you help him get into Tian Leyu's room?"
“They just said they wanted to see what she looked like. We knocked on the door from the outside but she didn’t answer, so we had to climb over from the balcony.”
"But I swear, I was absolutely not involved, and I have not wronged Xiaoyu."
"So, Tian Leyu's death is related to Lao Gao and his gang, is that right?"
A-Zhe fell silent. He wasn't sure if it was related; he had also gone to see Tian Leyu late that night...
"Anyway, when Lao Gao and his gang left, they told me that Tian Leyu was still alive."
Jiang Zifeng looked at A Zhe with disappointment, hesitating whether or not to tell Qin Zeyu.
"Zifeng, you won't tell Xiaoyu, will you? We're all brothers!"
"Okay, let's check out of this room as soon as possible."
There was no sound of conversation coming from the room. After turning off the recording, Shen Yizhou went back to room 1306.
He opened the door, looked around to make sure no one was there, and then went out. He took the elevator back to the 12th floor.
On his way back to his room, he kept thinking. It turned out that the woman Lao Gao and his group were talking about when he first met them was Tian Leyu. But from their conversation, it seemed that Tian Leyu was alive when Lao Gao left the room.
He walked to the door of room 1208, took out his room card and swiped it to open the door. He Tiantian was still sleeping in bed.
Shen Yizhou gently opened the balcony door, sat down in a chair, lit a cigarette, and took out his phone to listen to the recording again.
He had a feeling that Ah Zhe was lying, and that he needed to go back to that room again; there were probably still clues he hadn't discovered.
Time flew by, and it was already 2:14 PM. He stood up, looked at the sea, and lit another cigarette.
Old Gao and his group are the ones who need to be closely monitored; he needs to find A Qing and A Yu.
Knock knock knock, knock knock knock, knock knock knock, there was a knocking sound at the door, and it was a rather urgent knocking.
He Tiantian was woken up by the knocking on the door. "Shen Yizhou! Hurry up and see who it is, it's so annoying."
Shen Yizhou extinguished his cigarette, walked to the door, hung up the security chain, and opened the door.
Ah Yu poked her head out through the crack in the door, "Brother Zhou, it's me! Open the door quickly! We have something important to report."
Shen Yizhou thought to himself, "Isn't this a coincidence? The person I was just looking for has come to me."
He Tiantian sat up halfway and looked at the door. "Who is it? Shen Yizhou."
