C394 Hotel Stay
Yan Duoya rubbed her arms as she felt the chilly wind behind her, making her shiver uncontrollably. Looking at the remote street in front of her, Yan Duoyasi shrank her neck and walked deeper into the alley bravely.
On a dark and remote street, a tattered signboard was on the verge of collapse. Yan Duoya trembled when she saw a mouse occasionally running from one side of the street to the other. Looking at the words "a hotel" and those cheap lanterns, Yan Duoya felt a little disdain. After all, she hadn't stayed in such a shabby and dirty place for a long time. However, the present was not the same as the past. She could no longer be choosy.
The air was filled with a damp and musty smell. Yan Duoya covered her nose in disgust as she slowly walked into the hotel.
"A room at midnight or a room at night? The room will cost 15 yuan per hour. As for the night bag, let's talk about the price later. " Behind the counter, a fat woman in her forties was watching a series on her phone with relish. Hearing the footsteps, she didn't even look up as she spoke to Yan Duoya.
Yan Duoya didn't expect that there would be a room for an hour in the middle of the night. What a wonder! Yan Duoya rolled her eyes and said, "I want to stay for the night. How much is it?"
The reason why she asked for the price was so that this middle-aged woman would think that she was a poor person. She was afraid that if she ran into a scam shop, she wouldn't be robbed or something like that.
"Sixty-eight …" The woman continued without looking up, "Give me your ID!" With that, the woman extended her hand.
Hearing this, Yan Duoya looked troubled. After hesitating for a while, she slowly spoke up, "I left my identity card in such a hurry, can you …"
The woman raised her head and looked at Yan Duoya, wondering how much money she had in her backpack. Seeing that Yan Duoya was dressed in a rustic manner, the middle-aged woman said leisurely: "No ID card, + 50."
"Fifty? Can you reduce it? " Yan Duoyaeshen cautiously said with a troubled expression.
"Come on, come on, turn right around and walk five hundred meters. If you cause any trouble, you can go to the police station for free." The middle-aged woman retracted her gaze and continued watching the TV show in front of her.
Yan Duoya was only acting in the first place, so she naturally wouldn't leave this place. She pretended to be helpless and took out two bills from her bag, reluctantly handing them to the woman in front of her.
The middle-aged woman took the money and quickly looked for change. She then took out a key from a drawer, threw it on the counter and said to Yan Duoya, "Room 12, go upstairs and turn left for the third room. "Don't break something for me. If you break something, you'll have to compensate me!"
Yan Duoya picked up the rusty key and walked upstairs without looking back.
Yan Duoya came to room 12 and looked at the dilapidated door in front of her. It creaked as if it was still on the verge of collapse. She let out a long sigh, then opened the door and stepped inside.
Yan Duoya took a deep breath, walked into the room, turned on the lights, and closed the door. Under the dim light, Yan Duoya looked around the room in front of her. She felt nauseous in her heart.
The paint had already started to fall off the mottled walls and the corners were sprinkled with a circle of white powder. The furniture was old and full of the marks of time. The air was filled with a sour stench of decay. Seeing this, Yan Duoya couldn't help but frown.
Strange sounds came from the neighboring rooms. Yan Duoya had experienced the affairs of a man and a woman, so she naturally understood what that meant. No wonder the Lady Boss had asked her if she wanted to stay in the room for the night.
At the thought of this, Yan Duoya couldn't help but despise Nie Tian. If it wasn't for the fact that she was wanted, she would never have stayed in such a crappy hotel. But now, she was in a difficult situation — well, she had better make do with it.
Yan Duoya thought to herself as she pulled off the white quilt, preparing to sleep for the night. Tomorrow, she would go downtown and find a slightly better place to stay. However, as soon as Yan Duoya pulled the quilt away, she was disgusted by the scene before her.
Yellow and rust-red stains could be seen on the white bed sheet. There were also a few mosquitoes that had been killed. The blood of the mosquitoes was very obvious on the white bed sheet. Near the pillow, there were some hair that had fallen off, as well as two used condoms. "It looks as if the room has not been cleaned.
In the trash can by the window, there were two instant noodles boxes. There was a strong smell of old pot of pickled noodles. The remaining flour paste had long since swelled up from the water. Yan Duoya kicked the trash can. The soup in the bowl swirled along with the leftover noodles. It looked like a pile of squirming, fat maggots.
Seeing this, Yan Duoya retched. She couldn't hold it in any longer, so she left the room quickly and rushed downstairs to the cashier's desk. She found the owner of the hotel and angrily said, "Your room hasn't been cleaned at all, and the instant noodles are still in the trash, you haven't even changed the bed sheets!"
Hearing this, the lady boss was a bit surprised. She stopped watching TV and put away her phone. Then, she followed Yan Duoya to room 12. When she saw the scene before her, she was also a little angry and swore through gritted teeth: "This little bastard, he actually brought people here for the night and didn't tell me about it afterwards — but he was still a frugal fellow, at least he didn't take those odd women out to other hotels to get a room, which saved him a lot of money.
"Lady Boss, tell me, how should I deal with this?" Yan Duoya, who was standing to the side, looked at the Lady Boss with her hands on her hips as she asked aggressively.
Seeing this, the Lady Boss could only smile and say to Yan Duoya, "Since that's the case, I'll give you the best room in the shop for free. How about that?"
Upon hearing that it was the best room, Yan Duoya nodded in satisfaction and said, "Since that's the case, then quickly take me there. I'm so sleepy right now!"
The Lady Boss brought Yan Duoya to the corner room on the third floor. As soon as Yan Duoya entered, she was immediately satisfied — although this room was still far from the rooms in the city, it was still an excellent room compared to the one she had just entered.
"Alright, you should hurry up and leave. I need to rest!" Yan Duoya told the Lady Boss as soon as she entered the room.
"That's good. Have a good rest." The Lady Boss smiled at Yan Duoya. Then, she twisted her fat butt and slowly walked towards the staircase.
Although the room was not luxurious, it was clean. After Yan Duoya closed the door, she threw back her blanket and lay down on the bed, preparing to rest. However, the soundproofing in the room still wasn't effective, and sounds that caused one's face to turn red and their heart to palpitate could still be heard from their surroundings. Yan Duoya pounded the bed with some anger and used a pillow to cover her ears before she calmly emptied her mind.2
