Although the bleeding from Yang Qiqi's leg had stopped, her body had not yet recovered, and her face was still very pale. She limped as she walked. Even so, she was unwilling to stay in the room.
If she couldn't kill Lin Yi, then she would leave and come back to kill him another day. This was the principle of a killer. If you can't win, you don't fight to the death; that's not a killer, that's a daredevil.
Limping to the first floor, Yang Qiqi approached the reception desk: "Madam, what's the name of the man who brought me to room 209?"
Previously, Yang Qiqi hadn't asked for Lin Yi's name because she knew that even if she asked, Lin Yi wouldn't answer. Lin Yi treated her like a passerby, and since she was going to kill him, Lin Yi naturally wouldn't want to trouble himself.
However, Yang Qiqi wasn't stupid. She knew that hotel guests had to register, and since she was unconscious and had no identification on her, the person who registered must have been Lin Yi.
"Oh?" The madam was taken aback, but then, seeing Yang Qiqi's attire, she immediately recognized her as the woman the man had carried in.
No way? They didn't even know each other and they ended up together? And they even checked into a room? But looking at her earlier state, she was carried in, so maybe she was drunk? If that's the case, it's quite possible.
Young people these days! The madam sighed at the decline of morals, but she never thought that without these young people checking into rooms, her hotel business wouldn't be as good as it is now.
"He's called Lin Yi." The madam glanced at the register and said to Yang Qiqi.
"Thank you." Yang Qiqi nodded and remembered the name. Lin Yi, huh? Whether it's his real name or a fake one, she now hated this name.
"You're welcome." For the madam, it was just a small favor, a mere word.
Yang Qiqi remembered Lin Yi's name and turned to leave the hotel. Seeing Yang Qiqi limping out, the madam couldn't help but exclaim. No way? It was that intense? She can't even walk?
Looking at the man earlier, he didn't seem that strong, yet he was so powerful? Could it be that this girl was a first-timer? The madam shook her head, thinking evil thoughts.
For Lin Yi, Yang Qiqi was just a minor episode. He was somewhat annoyed that she had tried to kill him, considering he had saved her life. Although he had seen her thigh, he had to treat her wound, right?
If she insisted that seeing her thigh meant he had to kill her, then what about the nurse who saw her too? Should he kill the nurse as well?
Although the alcohol stove wasn't as powerful as a gas stove, it could still be used if handled well. He poured the prepared herbal soup into the sealed bags he had bought from the pharmacy. Since the soup was hot, it naturally contained steam. When the soup cooled, the steam turned into water, creating a vacuum in the sealed bags, which helped preserve the soup and prevent it from spoiling.
After doing all this, Lin Yi packed away the herbal preparation tools. These could be used again, and although the alcohol was almost gone, it was available everywhere.
After packing everything up and making sure nothing was left behind, Lin Yi called the reception desk downstairs to check out. However, when his gaze fell on the bedsheet, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. It seemed he couldn't avoid paying for it. The bedsheet was covered in blood and clearly couldn't be used.
Not long after, the madam wobbled into the room. It seemed the hotel usually had no staff, and she managed everything herself.
Lin Yi had opened the window before the madam came up to let in fresh air, so the herbal smell in the room wasn't too strong. The madam didn't notice much, but as soon as she entered the room, she was stunned by the large bloodstain on the bed!
"You... this bedsheet?" The madam pointed at the bedsheet, speechless. She was so shocked, beyond words. She had previously speculated that Yang Qiqi was a first-timer, which explained her limping. Now, seeing the large bloodstain on the bedsheet, it confirmed her evil thoughts. However, she thought, Lin Yi didn't know how to be gentle; the first time was so brutal, it looked like a major hemorrhage. Was he trying to kill someone? If someone died in her hotel, it would be a disaster!
Thinking about this, the madam's face darkened. A bedsheet cost several dozen yuan, and the room fee she earned wouldn't leave much after deducting the cost of the bedsheet!
"How did you mess up the room like this?" The madam asked coldly.
"Sorry, I'll pay for it." Lin Yi didn't want to explain, so he directly offered to compensate.
Since Lin Yi had agreed to pay, the madam didn't say anything more, thinking this young man was quite sensible. Otherwise, she would have been ready to scold him.
After checking the room facilities, the madam said, "A one-time-use towel, forty yuan; a bedsheet, sixty yuan; a total of one hundred yuan."
"Okay." Lin Yi nodded. The madam wasn't too greedy. A white bedsheet, bought in bulk, would cost about thirty yuan each. She was selling it to him for sixty, and the towel for forty, just doubling the price.
Seeing Lin Yi's willingness to pay, the madam didn't say anything more: "Come downstairs with me, and we'll settle the room fee. You rested in the room for five hours, so we'll charge you for a full day, which is sixty yuan. You prepaid one hundred yuan, so you need to give me another sixty yuan."
Lin Yi nodded, went downstairs, and paid the madam, then turned to leave.
"Wait!" The madam called out.
"Is there anything else?" Lin Yi turned and asked, thinking the madam might feel it wasn't worth it and wanted to extort more money from him.
"The girl you brought in asked for your name before she left, and I told her!" The madam, seeing Lin Yi's willingness to pay, kindly warned him.
By her intuition, they definitely weren't a couple, so she felt the need to say more.
"Ah?" Lin Yi smiled bitterly. He didn't want any further contact with the female killer, but he hadn't expected her to remember his name. He guessed there would be more trouble in the future.
Leaving the hotel, Lin Yi checked the time; it was already past two in the afternoon, and he hadn't eaten lunch. However, for Lin Yi, a meal wasn't that important.
Lin Yi hailed a taxi and said to the driver, "To the First High School."
