Chapter 38 - Sneak photography

Xin Gan slightly raised her head and glanced at him. The corridor light was dim and yellowish. He was tall, and the light came down, casting a shadow over him, making it hard to see his expression. It was full of mystery. A subtle ripples welled up in her heart. In the next moment, his gaze met hers. She immediately turned away and looked elsewhere without any focus.

Her voice was very soft. "OK."

After she finished speaking, she tapped the access card, opened the door and went in without stopping.

Cheng Jiu frowned slightly but said nothing. Glancing at Xiao Shi, he threw out a sentence: "Why are you standing there? Open the door."

"Oh, oh. Open it now."

Xiao Shi entered the room and said, "Brother Jiu, are you taking a bath?" Or go to sleep now?

Although the room is simple and narrow, fortunately, there is an air conditioner. I can turn on the hot air. The temperature is low at night, which is much more comfortable than inside the car.

Cheng Jiu took a cigarette and was smoking it, saying, "You wash first."

Xiao Shi didn't hesitate either and immediately rushed into the bathroom to take a shower.

Cheng Jiu opened the window, poked his head out to take a look at the surrounding environment, and saw that the window of the next room was also open, with the light on and no sound.

He finished smoking a cigarette and felt uncomfortable no matter what. He took another cigarette and smoked, leaning against the window and standing there.

Suddenly, a rapid scream rang out from the next room. It was Xin Gan's voice. He was alert and heard it. Immediately, he rushed out and knocked on the door of the next room.

Xin Gan heard a knock on the door. After a moment's pause, he opened it and saw Cheng Jiu standing at the door. He asked, "What's wrong?"

He moved quickly. Singan believed what he had just said.

The sound insulation is indeed not good.

She scratched her head and said, "There were spiders. I was scared."

She's not usually the kind of person who gets scared by bugs. It's just that the scene that happened a few hours ago seems to be happening right before her eyes. She hasn't recovered yet, and it's even more terrifying than the explosion that occurred at the station.

Cheng Jiu looked at her for a while and said, "Let me see."

He went past her and walked in.

Xin Gan stood against the wall and said, "Over there by the bedside."

Cheng Jiu picked up the pillow, pushed the bed aside and checked everywhere. He didn't find any spiders and probably had no idea where they had crawled. He checked the corner once and found no insects. However, he discovered a camera hidden in the corner, which was very concealed. If it weren't for the flashing red light when he got close, it would have been very difficult for people to notice.

Xin Gan saw him bending over and fiddling with something. She took a few steps closer and asked, "What did you find?"

Cheng Jiu's tone was somewhat cold: "There's a camera that secretly took pictures."

Xin Gan felt cold all over and said, "How could..."

"Turn off all the lights. I'll check."

Xin Gan immediately pulled out the room card and then heard Cheng Jiu say, "Turn on your phone, click on the camera and switch to video mode, and record everywhere."

After recording it once, Xin Gan also found a camera with a red light flashing in the bathroom. After looking at it like this, she was even more frightened. Her back was sweating. Fortunately, she hadn't taken a bath just now. Otherwise...

Cheng Jiu took apart all the problematic parts by hand. After inserting the room card back in, he turned on the light again. He put away the two mini cameras that had been removed and said, "It's too late now. You go to sleep first."

"Then this one taken secretly..."

"Go to sleep. Don't worry about it." This couldn't have been done by the innkeeper. It's all run by locals. There's no need to do such things. If it were discovered, their reputation would surely be ruined. Most of the time, it's just some people who have stayed there pretending. The methods are bad and not worth mentioning.

Xin Gan never expected that such a situation could happen to him. His heart was pounding in his throat.

Cheng Jiu said, "Do you feel very unlucky that everything happened to you?"

Need I say more?

Xin Gan is silent.

Cheng Jiu glanced at her again, thought for a moment, and comforted her, "Don't think too much. Go to bed early."

He was about to leave when Xin Gan suddenly asked, "Cheng Jiu, who are those people tonight?"
