After leaving the underground casino, Xiao Lou found a public phone booth nearby, pulled the business card out of his pocket and called Mo Xuemin. “Old Mo, I am the challenge who just asked about the Intelligence Bureau at the railway station. We want to find a hotel to settle in temporarily. Do you have any affordable hotel recommendations?” He added, “Can we transfer the consulting fee to you?”
Mo Xuemin’s warm voice entered his ears. “You can! How many days are you going to stay?”
“First, stay for a week. Then we want to find ways to rent a house.”
Mo Xuemin thought about it and replied, “Then you can take a taxi to the Clear Pool District. It is a suburb of the City of the Moon. The hotels are very cheap and I recommend the New World Restore. The environment is good and the price of a luxury twin room is 15,000 gold coins for one night. I live there so don’t worry. The security there is very strict and it is very safe!”
15,000 gold coins were less than 150 yuan. This was really cheap enough.
Xiao Lou smiled. “Thank you, Old Mo.”
Mo Xuemin told him, “If you have any problems when you arrive then find me. I’m going back.”
“Okay. What room do you live in? I’ll give you the consultation fee then.”
“I live in 507. I’ll see you later!”
After hanging up the phone, Shao Qingge wondered, “Professor Xiao, why did you consult this person?”
Xiao Lou explained, “We met a senior at the railway station who sells information to make money. He is very sincere so I asked him first so that we don’t stay in an unscrupulous place again.”
Ye Qi was alert. “You encountered him at the train station? Would he be a liar?” He used to take a train and every time he got off, some uncles would pull him over and ask, “Stay here?” He was afraid and always felt cheated.
Xiao Lou told him, “We just have to ask a few locals to know if he is a liar or not.” He glanced at the nearby fruits store and went to buy some fruit. As he paid for the fruit, he casually asked the clerk, “Beauty, do you know how to get to the Clear Pool district?”
The clerk packed the fruit and smiled. “Are you foreigners? The Clear Pool district is to the east of the City of the Moon. You are currently in the west of the city. If you take a taxi then you should get there in an hour.”
Xiao Lou wondered, “Are there many foreigners staying there?”
The store clerk said, “Yes, the eastern suburbs have the cheapest prices in the entire city.”
Xiao Lou thanked her and came out with the fruit.
Shao Qingge suggested, “You shouldn’t have eaten yet? Do you want to eat something before finding the hotel?”
Xiao Lou was indeed a bit hungry. They found a fast food restaurant on the road and every person ordered a meal. During the process of eating, they asked the employees about the Clear Pool district. They all said it was a suburb with many foreigners. Obviously, there was no problem with the information given by Old Mo.
Since a taxi could take a maximum of four people, the five of them had to take two taxis to the Clear Pool district. Xiao Lou, Yu Hanjiang and Shao Qingge took one while Ye Qi and Liu Qiao followed in another.
The taxi driver was talkative. Once he heard that everyone was going to the Clear Pool district, he chatted with Xiao Lou about the district. He also recommended Clear Pool’s pedestrian street, saying that there were several cheap barbecue stores there. He also talked about several tourist attractions and shopping centres that foreigners must go to.
Xiao Lou suddenly had the illusion of encountering an enthusiastic driver when travelling to a strange city. “Thank you, Master. Please take us to the New World Resort.”
The taxi stopped near the hotel. Seeing that Ye Qi and Liu Qiao hadn’t got off yet, Shao Qingge whispered in Xiao Lou’s ears. “Professor Xiao, do you want to take in this Liu Qiao?”
“Yes, she lost all her gold coins in 4 of Clubs and we’ll take her for a while.” Xiao Lou turned to Chief Shao. “If she wants to join our team, are you willing to accept her?”
Shao Qingge shrugged. “I have no problem adding her as long as she doesn’t drag us down.”
“She shouldn’t drag us down. Liu Qiao is smart and cautious. She also has three S-grade cards in her hand. The Twin card that can copy anyone, Little Red Riding Hood and the Poison Queen she drew in 4 of Clubs. She is quite strong.”
Shao Qingge spoke with some surprise. “Is that so? She draws fairy tale cards?”
“Perhaps she has a relationship with the fairy tale card. Meanwhile, I draw historical figures and Group Leader Yu draws weapons.”
Shao Qingge touched his nose. “I seem to be the worst in the team? Ye Qi has a few instrument control cards while I haven’t drawn any useful cards.”
Yu Hanjiang interjected. “It is enough for you to make money.”
Shao Qingge, “……”
Okay, he was in charge of making money and lying down to win.
At this time, the taxi with Ye Qi and Liu Qiao arrived. The two people got off the car and walked to Xiao Lou. Xiao Lou smiled at them. “We will go in together to check in.”
The New World Hotel was 20 storeys high. There were two large trees in front of the hotel connected by a canopy, each one forming a beautiful natural shade. After entering the lobby through a long corridor, Xiao Lou’s eyes lit up.
The lobby that was six metres high looked extremely spacious and magnificent. There were many green vines falling from the ceiling and small white and blue flowers hanging from the vines. The white hall was like a romantic wedding scene.
The lights in the room were covered with leaves and soft light sprinkled through the gap between the leaves, adding warmth to the room. There were no sofas in the lobby. They were all wooden chairs and there was the natural aroma of grass. This was much fresher than the inferior perfumes of many hotels.
The hotel’s clock pointed to 23 o’clock.
Xiao Lou took everyone to the front desk. “Are there any rooms available? Please book three double rooms for us.”
The receptionist was a young girl with delicate makeup. She smiled slightly and said, “Sir, there are rooms available. Please show me your identity card.”
Identity card? A hint of doubt flashed in his eyes. Then immediately afterwards, he reacted by looking into his card pack. Sure enough, he had a new card in the pack after entering the City of the Moon.
[Identity Card]
Name: Xiao Lou
Height: 180cm
Weight: 65kg
ID card number: 89657741
There was no birthday on the ID card but the height and weight were written. This was probably the characteristics of the Card World? Xiao Lou handed the card over and the female smiled. “How many people do you have? How many days do you want to stay?”
Xiao Lou replied, “Five people for seven days.”
“All guests must give me their ID cards for verification. It is a rule.”
Hearing this, the others followed Xiao Lou’s example, found the identity cards in their bags and handed it to her.
The girl took the five identity cards and operated the co
