Today, some taxi drivers in Hangzhou City were behaving strangely for some reason.
They were all clamoring that they were not picking up passengers today and wanted to take the day off.
Of course, it wasn't really a complete day off.
If they encountered rich and powerful customers who were willing to pay more, they would still make the trip even if it was just an extra five or ten yuan.
They were reluctant but... someone else offered more money!
...
After asking the driver, Shen Man'ni and her team immediately called Han Fei:
"Captain Han, we found the driver. As we guessed earlier, Xu Mo gave the driver 200 yuan to drive around West Lake while empty. What's the situation over there?"
"On my side...," Han Fei hesitated: "The situation is not looking good. Xu Mo is deliberately messing with us. I saw dozens of taxis leaving the area at that time."
Shen Man'ni fell silent.
Xu Mo was just one step ahead of them.
With just that one quick step, Xu Mo had thrown them a bunch of smoke grenades.
Then, Han Fei shared his next idea:
"Checking the taxis one by one would be too troublesome. I plan to contact the taxi companies to help investigate if we can find any clues. Come over and let's meet at the taxi company."
"Sure, we'll head over now."
...
However, just as the investigation team was preparing to seek the taxi companies' help,
Xu Mo had already left the airport in a taxi for some time.
To prevent the investigation team from tracking down this taxi,
After entering the city, Xu Mo got out of the taxi.
He walked a long distance with Yang Jingxuan before finding accommodation, which was a must at this point.
But this time, instead of randomly asking a passerby to book a room at a hotel,
he decided to find a homestay.
Homestays are different from hotels.
Hotels have very strict identity registration procedures, while homestays are just the opposite.
In fact, some private homestays in poorer conditions can check customers in without online identity registration.
As long as you have money, anything goes.
Xu Mo quickly found a homestay with lax identity registration controls.
The owner was a middle-aged woman who loved to chat.
Seeing guests coming in, she greeted them very enthusiastically:
"Hello you two, looking for accommodation?"
"Yeah," Xu Mo smiled at the owner: "A twin room."
The owner looked at Xu Mo in surprise, then at Yang Jingxuan beside him.
A man and a woman coming to get a room together, yet they wanted a twin room?
But very soon, the owner's face showed an "I understand" expression.
She seemed to read something from Xu Mo's smile.
Giving me a hint?
Saying you want a twin room, but actually wanting a queen room in your heart.
I guess right?
This young man in front of me probably wants a themed room...
The owner pretended to frown:
"A twin room? Too bad, the last twin room was just booked a few minutes ago. Why don't you get a queen room? It's only 100 yuan more expensive than the twin."
The owner didn't say too much.
Her implication was very obvious:
'Young people, I can only help you this far. The rest depends on whether you can seize the opportunity!'
As for her mentioning the queen room being 100 yuan more expensive, that was purely an "extra service fee."
Helping so much, asking for a little extra...What's the problem?
No problem at all.
As soon as Yang Jingxuan heard this, her face turned red. She quickly waved her hand and explained:
"No, no, auntie, you misunderstood. We are not a couple. Don't want the queen room. You really don't have any twin rooms left?"
At this point, Yang Jingxuan even thought about changing to another homestay.
Homestays generally don't have suites like starred hotels.
She thought she could endure a twin room.
But there were not even twin rooms left? What's the point of staying here?
It's not like she could sacrifice herself just for a TV show...
Xu Mo didn't offer much explanation. He scratched his head and looked at the owner:
"Boss, just the twin room. Two beds more convenient. If we dirtied one bed, there's still another bed to sleep on... If you really don't have a twin room, can you think of anything to help us out? I'll add money."
The owner was clearly stunned.
Wow, this young man really knows how to play!
So that's how the twin room would be used?
But she didn't bother asking about the details. Any room booked meant money for her.
Moreover, they offered to pay extra.
"I suddenly remembered there might still be a twin room upstairs. 150 yuan per day, 200 yuan deposit. Here's your room card, Room 306 on the 3rd floor."
Xu Mo took out five 100-yuan bills from his wallet and handed them to the owner, taking the room card: "Thank you, boss!"
"You're welcome. Let me know if you need anything. We have snacks, drinks downstairs...and toys."
"Sure, I'll come down and buy stuff if I need it."
Then Xu Mo pulled the baffled Yang Jingxuan upstairs along the stairs.
Although this homestay had no elevator and the conditions couldn't compare to those better homestays or starred hotels, it was still acceptable.
After all, you could check in without showing your ID.
Who cares about facilities when no ID is required?
At this moment, Yang Jingxuan's little head was filled with questions:
"What does he mean by sleeping on the other bed after dirtying one bed?"
Xu Mo: "......"
Yang Jingxuan didn't understand.
But the live stream viewers did!
"Damn, Xu Mo...what a player!"
"I understood again in seconds. Can I still be saved, bros?"
"This is not a school bus, I'm getting off!"
"Arrest everyone here! Yes, including me!"
...
"Tap tap tap..."
As Xu Mo went upstairs, there came the sounds of high heels stepping on the floor from above the staircase.
Looking up, there was a young woman in a bandage skirt and black stockings walking elegantly down the stairs.
She was a very beautiful woman with delicate features and fair skin.
At first glance, she seemed completely out of place in this shabby homestay.
Anyone would feel that a woman like her should be staying in a 5-star hotel rather than renting a room in a place like this.
It was worth mentioning that the woman's eyes wandered back and forth between Xu Mo and Yang Jingxuan.
After taking a look at Xu Mo, she instantly shifted her attention to Yang Jingxuan.
At this time, Yang Jingxuan was dressed head-to-toe in designer brands.
Necklace, bracelet, handbag, clothes, shoes.
This outfit probably cost at least 150,000-200,000 yuan.
The corners of the woman's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a smile. But the smile disappeared in a flash.
For most people, they probably wouldn't even notice that fleeting smile on the woman's face.
But for Xu Mo, who had increased 2 points in brain cell activity,
he could easily capture such subtle expressions.
The next second, the woman descending the stairs deliberately missed a step and fell into Xu Mo's arms.
The woman smelled nice and felt very comfortable to hold in his arms.
But Xu Mo had no time to enjoy it, because he realized this woman had fallen on purpose, intentionally falling into his arms.
There was something strange about this woman!
