Chapter 322: Making a Fuss at the Hotel

"What time at noon?"

"Big brother said, the last time he called her was around twelve thirty."

"Twelve thirty? If she's still at the company, then after coming down from the company building, waiting for the elevator, and reaching the entrance, at the earliest it would be around twelve forty to fifty."

"Yes, and then taking a taxi from there, if everything goes smoothly, it should take about forty minutes to reach this spot."

"If that's the case, we can pull up this surveillance camera; we only need to look at footage after twelve thirty."

"Exactly, that's what I mean."

"What are we waiting for? But the key is, if we go get the surveillance footage like this, do you think they'll cooperate?"

"Don't worry, watch me—I'll naturally have my own way."

After saying that, Xiao Yuchun just gave her a mysterious wave, and then the two sisters walked straight into the lobby.

"What's going on? Didn't we say earlier? It seemed to be right here, but with people coming and going, how am I supposed to find it?"

Suddenly, Xiao Yuchun turned around and shouted loudly at Xiao Jingrou.

Xiao Jingrou froze for a moment—could this be the method she was talking about?

But no matter what, since she's already used this move, I should just cooperate; other things can be discussed later.

"Miss, I'm really sorry; I was in a rush leaving just now, so I didn't notice this."

"Let me tell you, do you know how important this is to us?"

"I know, I know, don't be anxious; look, otherwise I'll ask them again."

While speaking, Xiao Jingrou just put on a look of grievance, then walked over to the front desk.

"Miss, sorry, I came this afternoon and had a document that seems to have fallen in the lobby; I want to ask if anyone saw it."

"What document? No, if someone really picked up the document, they should have handed it to us, but this afternoon nobody handed over any document."

"No way, I clearly remember having the document when I came down from Bin Guan; but after reaching the lobby, it disappeared—doesn't that mean it fell here?"

"Miss, otherwise let me help you check—tell me which room you're staying in."

When the front desk lady said that, Xiao Jingrou suddenly froze.

Right, what room is she staying in? If we just make up a room number, they'll pull the guest info and it won't match—then wouldn't we be exposed?

"I..."

"What are you doing? I didn't ask you to look up records—why are you hesitating here?"

Fortunately, Xiao Yuchun seemed to have seen through all this, and rushed forward.

"Sorry, I'm currently negotiating this with them."

"There's nothing to negotiate—I saw clearly when you went downstairs that you were holding it, and after you left the lobby, the document had already vanished."

"Then, what should we do?"

"What else can we do? Doesn't he have any surveillance cameras in there?"

After saying that, Xiao Yuchun turned around and glanced around.

Soon, her glasses locked onto the surveillance camera right in the center of the lobby.

"Isn't this it? There's a camera—then you'll be able to see whether you came out from here, right?"

"Geez, you see my brain, Miss—could you help me pull up that camera's video?"

The front desk staff heard that, only hesitated a bit, looked up, then quickly shook his head at them.

"Sorry, miss, we can't just pull up these surveillance recordings."

"What? Can't? Go, where's your manager? Who's the manager here?"

As Xiao Yuchun spoke, she suddenly flared up, slammed the table, and shouted loudly here.

The lobby manager on duty over there heard the commotion and hurried over.

Because of their noise, it already drew a crowd, so for their hotel it's also a not-small impact.

"Sir/Miss customer, sorry, sorry, what's wrong with you? Can't we talk slowly?"

"What's there to say? Besides, I already told you—my person lost the document here; I just want to check the surveillance camera—what's wrong? I'm not looking at anyone else's privacy."

"Heh, you want to see the recording? Don't rush, come over, come over, let's talk here."

The manager still had experience handling such things, so he merely gestured them over.

Actually, the purpose is simple: just hope she can avoid this place and stop drawing their attention.

Xiao Yuchun naturally gave herself an out—after all, if they kept making a fuss, it wouldn't end well for them.

"Are you the duty manager?"

"That's right, I am."

"Alright, finding you makes things easy—he should have come out during this time, and dropped the document here; could you help us pull up the footage?"

"That's a bit against protocol, and without permission we're not allowed to casually pull up surveillance recordings."

"Fine, if we can't pull it up, then I guess I'll have to call the police—I want to see what a big hotel like yours is up to, failing even to protect guest data."

While saying that, Xiao Yuchun directly took out her phone.

At that moment, Xiao Jingrou suddenly seemed to realize something.

"You, you shouldn't do this—if you call the police, it'll probably attract reporters, and then I won't be able to explain things when I go back to the company."

Just the words "reporters" gave the lobby manager an idea.
