Chapter 133: Chapter 133: Fang Xiaocao’s New Plan

4:38 PM!

Inside Room 507, Fang Xiaocao, who had been cooped up all day, felt suffocated.

Although it was safer than the outside, danger lurked everywhere, giving Fang Xiaocao the feeling of being trapped like a soft-shelled turtle in a jar.

She was that soft-shelled turtle, sealed in a jar.

“No, I’ve got to figure out a way to break this deadlock.”

Fang Xiaocao stood up from the bed and began pacing back and forth in the room.

Now, Fang Xiaocao regretted it.

She shouldn’t have come to the hotel and checked into Room 507.

Confined to the room, she was like a little cat, blind and deaf.

With toxic beasts lurking outside, she was unable to discern where the danger came from.

5:03 PM!

While Fang Xiaocao was anxious, the screen of the smartphone on the bed suddenly lit up.

She immediately picked up the phone and unlocked the screen.

wuxiaworld.site wuxiaworld.site.Co

The smartphone was her only means to obtain clues.

Like a lifesaving straw.

It was also her way of staying in touch with Hot Noodles.

As soon as she unlocked it, she saw it was a message on WeChat.

Fang Xiaocao felt a surge of joy and hastily opened WeChat to check the message.

Upon seeing the contact who had sent the message, Fang Xiaocao was startled, then overjoyed again.

It was Tom!

The one who had sent her a message was Tom, who had been missing for some time.

[Tom: Princess Your Highness, I have returned.]

“Good that you’re back!”

“Where are you now?”

Fang Xiaocao immediately replied to the message, asking for Tom’s location.

[Tom: Princess Your Highness, I am now in the hotel lobby.]

[Tom: Princess Your Highness, do you need me to come up to find you?]

“Don’t come up!”

Seeing Tom’s message, Fang Xiaocao was startled and quickly sent a message to stop Tom from coming upstairs.

“The hotel is full of police, and there’s an assassin on the loose in the floors that hasn’t been caught.”

“Moreover, the fifth floor has suddenly filled up with guests, and I suspect assassins may have infiltrated.”

Fang Xiaocao sent all the limited information she had to Tom.

The Criminal Investigation Team’s undercover officers, the sounds of knocking on doors, were not only heard by Axi, but also by Fang Xiaocao.

Through the investigators, Fang Xiaocao had also obtained an understanding of the occupancy situation on the fifth floor.

[Tom: Then, Princess Your Highness, aren’t you in danger? Why don’t you come down, and I’ll escort you out.]

Tom, who had been branded with a spiritual imprint by Fang Xiaocao’s hypnotism, was loyally concerned for Fang Xiaocao’s safety.

“Now that you are back, I’m not in a hurry to leave.”

Fang Xiaocao pondered for a moment, then replied with a message to Tom.

At this moment, Fang Xiaocao had a new plan.

She would have Tom as her eyes, while she continued to stay in Room 507 and enjoy the protection of the police.

As long as she didn’t leave the room, even if Han Xue and Axi had checked into the hotel, they would only be focused on Room 508.

And inside Room 508, there were members of the Criminal Investigation Team lying in wait, hoping the assassins would fall into their snare.

Han Xue and Axi might well fall into the trap set by Wang Qiang.

[Tom: Princess Your Highness, is there anything I can do for you?]

In the hotel lobby, Tom sat on the sofa, casually observing the comings and goings of guests while chatting with Fang Xiaocao.

“Indeed, I have a job for you.”

Inside Room 507, seeing the message from Tom, a smile spread across Fang Xiaocao’s lips.

“Worthy of a professional killer, so clever.”

“Catching on with just a hint, this means you know that I have a new plan.”

In her heart, Fang Xiaocao gave Tom a thumbs-up.

[Tom: Princess Your Highness, please command Tom as you wish.]

“Can you get legitimate documents now, ones that the police can’t detect when checking at the hotel?”

Fang Xiaocao pondered for a moment and sent a message to inquire.

[Tom: Yes, my own passport is fine.]

Seeing Tom’s response, a glint of hope appeared in Fang Xiaocao’s eyes.

There’s a way!

Her plan could be put into action.

“You use your passport to check into a hotel room.”

Fang Xiaocao immediately began to remotely control Tom, putting her plan into motion.

[Tom: Understood. Do I need to pick a room on the 5th floor?]

Tom, in the hotel lobby, saw the message from Fang Xiaocao, immediately got up, took out his passport from his backpack, and walked toward the hotel reception.

He had been in the hotel lobby long enough.

The instincts of a professional killer told him that he had been targeted by many pairs of eyes.

If it weren’t for Fang Xiaocao’s new plan requiring his cooperation, Tom would have left the hotel by now.

“No need, you should avoid the 5th floor.”

“Police are concentrated from the 5th floor to the 1st floor; avoid these floors for ease of subsequent action.”

Seeing Tom’s message, Fang Xiaocao immediately replied, remotely directing Tom.

[Tom: Received, I will check in immediately, contact you once I’m in the room.]

The phone vibrated, Tom glanced at it, casually sent a reply, and then slipped the phone into his pocket.

“Good evening, sir. How may I help you?”

The hotel receptionist looked at the tall and handsome Tom and asked with a smile in English.

“Hello, I need a room.”

Tom replied with a slight smile, in fluent Chinese.

“Sir, your Chinese is excellent.”

The receptionist was momentarily taken aback, then responded with a smile.

“Of course, I studied Chinese.”

Tom said with a smile.

Guided by the receptionist, Tom smoothly booked a room.

8th floor, Room 806!

“Thank you, goodbye!”

Tom took his room card, said goodbye to the receptionist with a smile, and with his suitcase and backpack in tow, headed for the elevator.

Hotel surveillance room!

Wang Qiang, watching Tom’s figure on the monitor, hesitated for a moment, picked up the walkie-talkie, and pressed the talk button: “This is Wang Qiang, go to the front desk to verify the foreigner’s document information, ask for his room number.”

“Received!”

A response came through the walkie-talkie.

Hotel lobby!

A man dressed in a hotel uniform walked toward the reception desk, leaned on the counter, chatted with the receptionist with a smile, and then turned to leave.

“Team leader, it’s done.”

“I’ve sent the passport information to Shi Guang.”

Listening to the voice coming through the walkie-talkie, Wang Qiang nodded and pressed the talk button: “Received, Shi Guang, hurry up and verify it.”

“Received!”

The voice of Shi Guang came through the walkie-talkie.

“Ding-dong!”

The elevator doors opened, and Tom, dragging his suitcase and backpack, stepped out onto the hotel’s soft carpeted hallway, looking at his room number while comparing it to the door plaques.

Tom knew that the surveillance room was surely filled with police watching him through the monitors.

Soon, Tom arrived in front of room 806.

Pretending to be scrupulous, he carefully matched the room card before swiping it to unlock the door and entered the room with his luggage.

Locking the door behind him, Tom placed his backpack and suitcase by the door, casually turned on the TV, and the tap in the bathroom.

Tom pulled out a palm-sized device, resembling a handheld game console, from his bosom, and began to move around the room.

After making a round in the room, the device lit up with a green light and voiced: “Safe, no listening devices or cameras present.”

Pleased, Tom nodded and put away the device.
