Chapter 237 Pinhole Camera



Checking the list, Lin Jing dialed the encrypted internal line.

"Are you the person in charge of Zhangcheng Hotel? I'm Lin Jing, the manager of the Huaguo branch."

Zhangcheng Hotel.

As the largest hotel in Zhangcheng Film and Television Base, the crew arranged accommodation for Qiao Ruoxi, Yu Jinghe, and several main actors here.

When Qiao Ruoxi arrived, Yu Jinghe was checking in at the front desk.

The girl at the front desk kindly reminded: "Mr. Yu, are you sure you want this room? This is the last room, the one at the end of the corridor."

Yu Jinghe was very firm: "Yes, I want this room."

Hearing voices from afar, Qiao Ruoxi raised her eyebrows and walked towards the front desk.

"Mr. Yu, thank you for helping me just now." Qiao Ruoxi took the initiative to thank him.

Yu Jinghe took the room card and looked at Qiao Ruoxi: "I said your acting is better than Gu Feifei's. That's the truth. You don't need to thank me specially."

Qiao Ruoxi continued, "Also, thank you for letting me borrow your PAD and for helping me act."

Yu Jinghe nodded: "My purpose in doing this is the same as yours, which is to ensure the smooth filming of this drama."

Qiao Ruoxi smiled and said, "If you need my help, just ask."

Yu Jinghe hesitated for a moment, said "OK", then turned and left.

Xiaoyuan, standing by, blinked in surprise. "Sister Xi, this is the first time I've seen Actor Yu not utterly slam someone down with three consecutive sentences. And as far as I can remember, Actor Yu never accepts help from anyone!"

Qiao Ruoxi smiled and said, "Because he really needs my help."

Xiaoyuan’s eyes widened even more.

With Actor Yu’s current status and position in the entertainment industry, is there anything he can’t do?

Why doesn't she believe it?

However, Xiaoyuan was soon slapped in the face.

She and Qiao Ruoxi checked in and just walked to the elevator when they saw that Yu Jinghe had not left, as if he was standing there waiting for them.

"I do have something I want to ask you for help with. Can we talk?" Yu Jinghe lowered his voice.

Qiao Ruoxi smiled: "Of course."

The two came to the hotel booth.

Yu Jinghe looked at the hot coffee in his cup and asked with his head down, "Can you really see things that ordinary people can't see?"

"Are you talking about the soul after death?" Qiao Ruoxi pointed out directly.

Yu Jinghe's body shuddered slightly, and he nodded with a wry smile: "If the entertainment reporters heard what I said, I'm afraid my image would be completely ruined and I'd be on the hot search list of "house collapse."

Qiao Ruoxi picked up the hot milk and took a sip. She looked through Yu Jinghe and spoke slowly.

"The woman you want to see is a woman with long wavy hair and phoenix eyes. She was wearing a red dress when she died, and there was a small red mole on her ankle."

With every word Qiao Ruoxi spoke, Yu Jinghe's grip on the coffee cup tightened a little. Finally, he looked up at Qiao Ruoxi in surprise: "You, how did you know!"

Qiao Ruoxi looked a bit sympathetic: "You want to see her, but unfortunately she doesn't want to see you."

The female ghost in red standing behind Yu Jinghe was putting her hands together and making a gesture of asking.

Yu Jinghe's eyes were filled with sadness and disappointment: "Why doesn't she want to see me? Is it because she still hates me..."

Qiao Ruoxi pointed behind Yu Jinghe: "She said she doesn't hate you, and she doesn't want to see you for other reasons, so you don't think too much about it."

Yu Jinghe was stunned and turned to look in the direction Qiao Ruoxi pointed.

However, he could see nothing but emptiness.

"Is she here now?" Yu Jinghe asked tentatively.

"She has been by your side since she died and has never left."

"What!" Yu Jinghe stood up directly.

He looked to his side again, and after confirming that he still couldn't see or feel anything, he smiled bitterly: "Even so, she doesn't want to see me?"

"I said I would help you. If you really want to see her, even if she doesn't want to, I can help you fulfill your wish."

After hearing what Qiao Ruoxi said, Yu Jinghe pondered for a moment, and finally shook his head: "No need, thank you."

After saying that, he stumbled, pushed the chair away, and left in a daze.

Watching Yu Jinghe's back disappear in the elevator and the elevator number gradually rising, Qiao Ruoxi shook her head.

She drank the hot milk at hand, stood up and walked towards Xiaoyuan who was not far away.

"No, no, I can move it." Xiaoyuan waved her hand, rejecting the kindness of the man in front of her.

"What's wrong?" Qiao Ruoxi walked forward and her eyes were immediately attracted by the tattoo on the man's arm, which was exposed because his shirt sleeve was half rolled up.

It was another S-shaped flame tattoo.

It seems that a related murder has occurred in Zhangcheng before, which is not a coincidence.

"Sister Xi, you're back! This young man saw that we had a lot of luggage and offered to help us move it up. I told him I could do it without him, but he didn't believe me. I'm very strong!"

Qiao Ruoxi smiled faintly and handed over a red ticket: "That's troublesome."

Looking at the large amount of paper and pen, the man was obviously stunned for a moment, and pushed it away: "Ms. Qiao, this tip is too much. You are our guest, and it is our duty to help."

Qiao Ruoxi handed the banknotes to Xiaoyuan: "It's hard to refuse the kindness of the little brother, so let him help us move our things up."

Xiaoyuan immediately understood and insisted on giving the tip to the man. In the end, the man accepted it, carried all the luggage, and went upstairs from the freight elevator.

When they arrived at the guest room, they found that the man had already arrived and his suitcases were neatly arranged.

Seeing that they were still surprised, the man smiled and explained: "The freight elevator is faster than the passenger elevator, so passengers don't need to wait."

Xiaoyuan nodded blankly: "This is the first time I've heard that your hotel is quite humane."

The man smiled and handed Qiao Ruoxi his business card: "Ms. Qiao, if you need anything, you can call this number." Then he left.

Qiao Ruoxi took a look at the business card, threw it on the table, and Xiaoyuan picked it up again.

"It turns out she's the hotel's lobby manager. I looked up reviews saying the hotel's service was average, but it seems that's not entirely true."

Seeing that Qiao Ruoxi hadn't said anything, Xiaoyuan walked forward curiously.

I saw Qiao Ruoxi opening the suitcase, taking out something that looked like the size of a recorder, and walking back and forth. From time to time, I could hear the small recorder-like thing making a "beeping" sound.

Qiao Ruoxi reached her hand under the table and heard a "click". When she opened her hand again, there was a bug inside.

Xiaoyuan covered her mouth in shock.

Qiao Ruoxi threw the bug on the ground and stomped on it a few times before speaking: "There are eight more pinhole cameras in the room. Remove the ones that can be removed directly, and block the ones that cannot be removed."

Xiao Yuan's face paled instantly. "Eight pinhole cameras! Is this room still habitable? I'm going to call the hotel lobby manager right now!"

Then he went to look for the business card.

"Do you really think that person just now was the hotel lobby manager?" Qiao Ruoxi curled her red lips coldly.
