At first they vehemently denied it.
This means that Qiao Nian and the others must still be in the hotel and there is no way they would appear at the auction venue.
It was Ali Dang who gritted his teeth and said in an extremely certain tone that the sign-in information of two people had already been received at the sign-in area at the entrance of the auction venue.
The third team quickly sent people to the 32nd floor and knocked on the door of the suite where Qiao Nian and his friends were staying to confirm.
“Knock, knock.”
"Is anyone there? We are hotel service staff, here to provide cleaning service for you two."
The hotel waiter stood in front of the peephole and, under the command of the mercenaries hidden on both sides, knocked on the door again and rang the phone bell inside.
"Hello, room service. Is anyone there?"
There was still silence inside, no response.
The captain of the third team was a scarred man. He could no longer hold his temper and said to the hotel waiter, "Swipe the card and open the door."
"…good."
The hotel waiters on Baishi Island were not inexperienced people. They quickly calmed down and took out the room cards they carried with them that could open any room.
Swipe the card on the sensor.
There was only a ding sound.
Everyone was on high alert, ready to follow the waiter's movements to open the door and rush in to see if there was anyone inside.
At this critical moment.
Suddenly, the lights in the hotel corridor clicked a few times and then went dark.
at the same time.
The hotel's alarm system went off.
The sharp sound of "buzz buzz buzz" instantly resounded throughout the hotel.
The guests downstairs also heard the alarm outside, and as their rooms suddenly lost power and internet, they all ran out of their rooms to ask the hotel staff what happened.
A dozen bloody mercenaries witnessed the hotel waiter swiping the card, which led to this series of incidents.
The scarred leader who was leading the group put his gun to the other man's temple almost reflexively.
"You're kidding me?"
The hotel waiter was so scared that cold sweat broke out on his back. He immediately raised his hands and almost cried: "It has nothing to do with me. I didn't do anything. You asked me to swipe the card to open the door. I don't know what's going on now."
Scarface signaled his men to snatch the room card from him.
The subordinate took the room card and checked it again and again, then turned around and reported to him: "Boss, he just has an ordinary room card, there is no problem."
Scarface frowned, thought for a moment, and then ordered, "Try brushing it again."
The man pushed the waiter away, walked to the sensor with the room card, and tried it again.
This time everyone's heart was in their throat, fearing that something strange would happen again.
But surprisingly, it was very quiet.
Apart from the alarm ringing outside the hotel, nothing else unusual occurred.
Without Scarface's orders, the subordinate took two steps forward and tried to open the door.
After pulling hard a few times, I soon found that it couldn't be opened.
He immediately turned around and reported to Scarface: "Boss, it can't be opened."
Scarface just turned his gaze to the hotel waiter, who immediately begged for mercy and shook his head in panic: "I don't know. I swear I brought the induction card that the hotel provided to open all the rooms. We usually use this card for cleaning..."
Scarface pushed him to his men and held him down, saying with a fierce look on his face: "Let's go down and see what's going on!"
The group went down with the hotel waiters.
