Chapter 615
Chapter 615 Just a Piece of His Scheme
As I had expected, there was no one in the room
Even... there was no trace of anyone having lived inside, as if the room had just been booked today, with even the packaging of essential items left unopened
If things were really as the staff said, that the residents requested them not to enter for cleaning, there should at least be signs of living inside
I don't believe anyone could clean a hotel room spotlessly amidst a busy work schedule. No, this is simply recreating the scene from when you first checked in, and no one can achieve that
If they told me that all of this was done by my Olive, it would be even more laughable
But precisely because of this, I became even more certain that the person appearing in the surveillance footage was definitely not my wife
She was just imitating Olive's figure and movements, even deliberately appearing within the range of the surveillance cameras at a fixed time every day. Obviously, all of these were done to show me
After I sorted out all the clues, I made an effort to calm myself down and turned to look at the hotel staff who was a little flustered by my previous actions
"Excuse me, where is the man who came with this lady?"
The staff was stunned for a while before stuttering and asking me what kind of man
In the end, Daisy on the side organized her words and repeated my previous question in a relatively calm tone
"Was there another man with this lady when she came to check in? Please try to remember carefully, did that man also check in later? The current situation is very clear now, Mr. Morris's wife is missing, and this person in the surveillance footage is likely to be an accomplice. Before we seek assistance from law enforcement agencies, we hope you won't conceal any clues."
Her tone was kind, but every sentence was telling the other person not to attempt to deceive
I knew that they might refuse our questions or even call the police directly. It is understandable for the hotel staff to handle the situation properly and deny any responsibility related to the hotel
But I didn't want to give up any chance, because if I were to go through the legal process, the complex transnational nature of the case would probably make it harder for me to find Olive as time goes by
So I continued to look at the person across from me with the same unfriendly gaze as before, singing in harmony with Daisy and secretly hoping that the staff would give us the answer Wwe wanted

But unfortunately, the other party always just shook their head
"We have never seen any man before. The lady came alone when she checked in, as you have already seen in the surveillance footage just now. She has never been seen walking with any man. However..."
She paused for a moment at the turning point, and my heart tightened. The damn hope ignited again
"But then I suddenly remembered something
The front desk staff had previously reported that the lady had used identity information for two people to register, besides herself, there was also a copy of a man's passport. She said he was her friend and would be checking in soon, but until today, that man has never appeared, let alone checked in with her."
This 1s a very important piece of information for me
I was already too late to blame the person in front of me for not telling me earlier, I just kept urging her to take me to the front desk to find the check-in record at that time

Although I already had the answer in my heart, when I saw the name of another person, Charlie Marilyn, on that check-in record, I still clenched my teeth tightly
His name was written side by side with Olive's name, and their passport copies were also stored together in the hotel's front desk logbook, as if waiting to be discovered by someone
And Charlie Marilyn was probably hiding in some corner at that moment, secretly delighting in everything he had arranged
Yes, I recalled how he had repeatedly urged me In an inciting tone to personally come to Tokyo
to investigate. At this moment, I already fully understood his intentions
He wanted me to come and see everything he had prepared for me, and Olive couldn't possibly fulfill my wishes in Tokyo
Maybe even the words spoken to me by the hotel staff today were deliberately arranged by Marilyn, just to keep me digging deeper when I catch a glimpse of a clue, ultimately to burn down the hope that had just sprouted within me
This 1s just one part of his plan, and I am here at this moment, with no purpose other than wasting time
