Chapter 2: Doomsday Hotel

The people who can enter here are either rich or powerful.

When Robinson Scott came out, Daisy Zane was looking at a vase worth at least seven figures in a corner spot.

"Superstar, what are you looking at?" Robinson Scott called her from a distance.

Hearing the voice, Daisy Zane turned around, and a hint of a faint smile appeared in her eyes.

"It\'s for you." Robinson Scott took a wooden box from his bag and handed it to her, "It\'s not as good as the last auction, but it\'s also a high-quality item, from a collector\'s hand."

Daisy Zane took it and opened the box to take a look.

Inside was a white jade hairpin, the head of which was an openwork carving, looking quite old but well preserved.

The last time at the auction, there was a dispute over a red jade hairpin, and the final raised price far exceeded the value of the hairpin. Daisy Zane didn\'t bid any further, allowing the other party to get it.

"Thank you, you\'ve gone to a lot of trouble."

"It\'s nothing." Robinson Scott\'s appearance had a bit of an exotic flavor, but when he smiled, it was very cute, "Just treat me to a drink."

"Alright, let\'s go, I\'ll treat you to a drink."

"Next time." Robinson Scott laughed, "I still have a task later."

"You seem to be quite busy." Daisy Zane\'s facial expression didn\'t change, still maintaining a cold and distant look, but the words carried a teasing tone.

Robinson Scott narrowed his deep eyes and complained in a low voice with some grinding his teeth, "That\'s because someone said they wouldn\'t take any tasks this year, so they all got pushed onto me. I don\'t even have time for a relationship!"

"How miserable."

Robinson Scott looked at her with a resentful expression.

Seeing his look, Daisy Zane couldn\'t help but lower her head and laugh softly.

The cold beauty\'s face had a touch of a smile, like sunshine falling on snow, making the cold snow even more beautiful.

"Seeing how pretty you are, I won\'t hold it against you." Robinson Scott was conquered by her smile, "By the way, how\'s your matter going? Did you find anything?"

"I haven\'t got any useful information." When it came to this matter, Daisy Zane seemed a bit annoyed.

"The item has passed through so many hands by the time it reaches him. And they are very careful, all transactions are done offline, just being able to trace this one thread is already not easy." Robinson Scott said, "Just take your time."

"Let\'s go, I\'ll walk you." Daisy Zane gave the hairpin back to her, "Ask someone to bring it back to the Imperial Capital and put it with the previous ones."

Robinson Scott took it and put it back in his bag. He just showed it to her to see if she liked it, not expecting her to keep it: "What kind of a habit is collecting so many and not using them, using some crappy wood, and plastic every day."

"Too poor to use something that expensive."

"......"

...

Daisy Zane accompanied Robinson Scott to the hotel entrance, as time already quite late, she planned to stay at the hotel for one night and leave tomorrow.

But as soon as she turned around, she ran into Amelia Miles, who had come out to see off a friend.

"Sister."

"..."

"Sister, are you here for my engagement banquet?" Amelia Miles walked a few steps closer to her, smiling very kindly.

"Happy engagement." Daisy Zane responded politely.

"Thank you, I\'m very happy that you could make it." Amelia Miles said, "However, the event has already ended inside. You can wait in the lobby for a while, and we can go back together later."

"No, I\'m not going back."

"If you don\'t want to stay at home, my brother can take you to your place later. It\'s too late, and it\'s hard to get a taxi around here."

"No need, I\'m staying here."

"Staying...here?" Amelia Miles looked at the big sign of Doomsday Hotel behind her, thinking she might have misheard.

"Yeah."

Upon Daisy Zane\'s response, she suddenly heard a burst of laughter, which was quite grating. She looked in the direction of the laughter.

They were the women who just left with Amelia Miles.

They also walked over, stepping on high heels with an air of arrogance.

One of them said, "Stay here? Do you know how much it costs to stay here for one night? This is Doomsday Hotel, not some roadside inn."

"Long Joy, don\'t say that." Amelia Miles pulled the person next to her, "My sister has been living in the countryside for a long time, she doesn\'t know much about things here."

Daisy Zane raised her eyebrow upon hearing this, with a flicker of amusement in her beautiful phoenix eyes.

She was an illegitimate daughter, living in the countryside since childhood, and without attending school. All of these things were spread by Amelia Miles in a seemingly protective tone.

"I\'m saying this for her sake." Clarissa Mason raised her chin, "She just had a cameo role and got some money. She shouldn\'t spend it all on one night here, or else she might not even have money for food tomorrow."

"Long Joy!" Amelia Miles whispered a rebuke and then said to Daisy Zane, "Sister, don\'t mind her. She\'s had a bit too much to drink today. Sister, the Doomsday Hotel is indeed more expensive than ordinary hotels. Let my brother take you back later."

"No need." Daisy Zane\'s voice was even colder than before.

After saying these two words, she glanced at Clarissa Mason and walked straight inside the hotel.

Just with that one glance, Clarissa Mason felt a cold shiver run down her spine, chilling her entire body, and making her feet feel cold.

Amelia Miles turned her gaze towards Daisy Zane, her face devoid of any sweetness, only contempt remaining.

She wanted to see how Daisy Zane would be driven out later.

But what she saw was Daisy Zane entering the grand hall of the hotel.

The waiter inside immediately greeted her, and Daisy Zane showed him her room card. With a respectful gesture, the waiter led Daisy Zane into the hotel.

Amelia Miles\' fingers hanging at her side tightened involuntarily. How could a countryside girl like her have the money or qualifications to stay in the Doomsday Hotel?

"She... really went in."

Suddenly someone spoke, and Amelia Miles\' sweet expression returned somewhat hurriedly.

The people she had sent out were in the entertainment industry and had a small reputation, but they were not top-tier.

They couldn\'t afford to stay in the Doomsday Hotel.

Clarissa Mason and Daisy Zane were in the same entertainment company. As soon as Daisy Zane signed with the company, she got a cameo role in a big director\'s movie. That role had belonged to Clarissa Mason before Daisy Zane joined the company.

"Sister, she is really good." Amelia Miles whispered softly.

"Good at seducing people, maybe." Clarissa Mason\'s jealousy was intense, as if she wanted to grind her teeth.

"Long Joy, don\'t talk nonsense."

"I\'m not talking nonsense." Clarissa Mason wrapped Amelia Miles\'s arm, "Amelia, you\'re too naive. How could she snatch my role without any tactics? I had already auditioned and secured the role before she came. And then she stole it."

"Yes, she\'s just a poor girl, wearing fake goods all over. How could she possibly stay at the Doomsday Hotel? Maybe she\'s with someone." The person next to them chimed in.

"You guys, don\'t talk about my sister like that." Amelia Miles said, but in her heart, she felt much more comfortable.

"Amelia, don\'t be stupid and think about others all the time." Clarissa Mason said, "You treat her as a sister, but does she treat you as a sister? You should be smart and not let the whole Miles family fall into her hands. She hasn\'t even gone to school, just a bumpkin with nothing but dirty tricks in her head."

Amelia Miles slowly lowered her head, her expression tense, and said no more.

...

"Arthur, shall we go next door and have a look?"

Allonzo Hobson and Kevin Clark were standing on the balcony of room 3603, looking next door.

After the fat man had finished speaking, Kevin Clark had him taken away.

"No need." Kevin Clark took his gaze back, "Since he\'s not the man\'s accomplice and has the same information as us, there\'s no need to meet."

"That\'s true." Allonzo Hobson sighed, "The news has been cut off again."

"Place another order with Celestial Pivot Detective Agency." Kevin Clark said.

Allonzo Hobson nodded, "Celestial Pivot is running into hard orders indeed."

Kevin Clark did not speak, his narrow eyes radiating cold. After standing on the balcony for a while, he turned and left the room.

As he opened the door, Kevin Clark couldn\'t help but glance at the door of the room next door, just in time to see Daisy Zane opening the door.

Daisy Zane also heard the movement and turned her head to take a look.
