Sentozu arrived at Shinagawa Station at 9:50.Tidying up the house and getting ready to go home is taking longer than expected. She followed the crowd through the intersection in front of the station and walked towards the hotel. Although the pedestrian-only entrance of the Park View Hotel is on the road, to get to the main entrance, you must walk through the hotel's courtyard.Qianduliu was carrying a heavy luggage, advancing on the winding path.The lights illuminated the colorful flowers, but she had no intention of admiring them. Finally approaching the main entrance of the hotel, taxis drove into the entrance one after another to let the passengers get off.Qian Duliu thought, to come to this kind of hotel, after all, you still have to take a car to have style.The hotel concierge also seemed to turn a blind eye to guests arriving on foot.

Just as Chiduriu was about to go through the main entrance - "Miss, excuse me." Suddenly someone called her from behind.Looking back, it was a young man in a black suit. "I'm sorry, are you going to check in now?" the man asked. "Yes." Qian Duliu replied cautiously. "I'm a policeman." As he spoke, the man turned out the black ID from the inside of his suit and let her take a look. "I must ask you for help." "Me?" Qianduliu was very surprised, she thought she was not involved in any incident. "Please move this way." The man walked towards the courtyard, and Qianduliu followed helplessly.

"Are you staying alone tonight?" the man asked. "yes." "You must live here? There is also a hotel behind, can't you live there?" "It doesn't matter, but I have an appointment..." "That's why we want to ask you for help." "How to help?" "Actually, there is a suspect living in this hotel. We hope to monitor it nearby. But unfortunately, there is a group booking tonight, and the hotel can't make room." Qian Duliu already understood what the man wanted to say, "You want mine?" "Yes." The man nodded, "It's too difficult to change rooms for the tenants who have already checked in, and if there is any change, I'm afraid people will find out. That's why I wait outside for the tenants who have made reservations but haven't checked in yet."

"Oh, so..." Qian Duliu looked at the other party.On closer inspection, he looked rather young, possibly a new police officer, but his neat suits and sincere demeanor won her over. "If you are considerate, we will pay for your accommodation tonight and send you to the hotel," the man said.He has a Kansai accent. "Is the Queen's Hotel behind it?" Qian Duliu confirmed to him that the hotel was much more upscale than the beautiful scenery of the park. "We reserved a room worth 40,000 yuan in the Queen's Hotel." The man seemed to have seen through her thoughts and mentioned the grade of the room.

It was a room she would never pay for out of pocket, she thought, and it made her mind up. "In that case, I don't care." "Thank you! Now I will take you there." The man reached out to take Qianduliu's luggage.
