I Get A Random New Occupation Every Week

Chapter 3644: Chapter 3636: Unusual Behavior

"Fuck, don’t be so dirty-minded."

"I also think Team Leader Lin wouldn’t do that." Zhao Fangming said.

"Finally someone who can see straight."

"Team Leader Lin wouldn’t do that because our team leader’s size doesn’t match Team Leader Lin’s preferences."

"Fuck, I’ll kill you!"

The cheerful mood diluted the tension inside the car.

But the update from Xiao Bing pulled them all back to the main topic.

"Lin Bro, looks like their route is the Chief Hotel."

"Chief Hotel?"

Lin Yi muttered, "If I remember right, that’s supposed to be the most high-end hotel in the world."

"That’s right."

"You sure about the route?"

"The road they’re on now basically leads straight to the Chief Hotel," Xiao Bing said.

"Jianfeng and Brother Hu have already gone over ahead of time."

"Good, switch off on the tail so they don’t notice."

"Got it."

Lin Yi drove while taking out his phone to check the map.

The route he was on did in fact lead to the hotel.

"If they really go to the Chief Hotel, that’s a bit unexpected."

"Yeah."

Lin Yi slightly sped up and headed for the Chief Hotel.

About ten-plus minutes later, Lin Yi got a message from Zhao Yunhu.

"Boss, I saw his car stop at the hotel entrance."

"Don’t rush it, stay calm. Did he go to get a room?"

"Let me see, he already went in..."

Zhao Yunhu’s voice cut off for a few seconds.

"Boss, he went to the front desk, but it doesn’t look like he checked in. He directly picked up a room card. Mammon’s people must have booked the room for him in advance."

"Good. Figure out the room number and have Xiao Bing hack into the hotel’s CCTV system."

"Roger."

He hung up the comms.

Lin Yi stepped on the gas and quickly arrived at the Chief Hotel.

As the most luxurious hotel in the world, you instantly understood why they called it that the moment you stood here.

The overall style of the hotel was like a castle.

The first impression it gave was: obscenely rich.

Even the seven-star Sailboat Hotel looked a bit dim next to this place.

"What the hell are these people doing?"

Qiu Yuluo’s question was also Lin Yi’s question.

Their meet-up could’ve been outside the airport or some shady back alley.

But no, they actually came to the Chief Hotel; the whole scene felt off.

ZZZ—

Xiao Bing’s voice came through the earpiece.

"Boss, I’ve hacked into the hotel’s CCTV system. Zhang Jinquan went into 602, it’s an ocean-view room."

"That room was booked for him by someone else. Check who was in that room before; that person is likely the Mammon contact."

"Understood."

After arranging the follow-up, Lin Yi and the other three stayed waiting in the car.

"The more I think about it, the weirder it feels. It doesn’t look like he’s defecting to them at all; it feels more like he’s on vacation." Liu Xueyao said,

"Maybe our guess is wrong and he just escaped here on his own."

"I kind of feel that too," Zhao Fangming said.

"All the major organizations have stations here. He could just as well be going to any of them."

"I agree with Brother Ming. He’s already at F-level. In a big organization he might not be anything special, but in a small one he could still live the good life, never worry about food or drink. It’s not like we can really do anything to him either."

"What you’re saying makes some sense, but there are also holes in that logic," Qiu Yuluo said.

"If he really wanted to hide, he wouldn’t act this high-profile. His level doesn’t justify it."

"You only realize how cautious Mammon is once you deal with them." Zhao Fangming sighed.

"You’ve got the cause and effect backwards," Lin Yi said.

"At this level of organization, their strength and standards are just naturally like this. It’s not some special trait of Mammon. It’s like me and Team Leader Qiu—we’re not team leaders because we’re awesome; it’s that anyone who can become a team leader is never going to be mediocre."

"I think I get what you mean," Liu Xueyao said.

"Alright, we can’t just have First Squad doing all the work. You two disguise yourselves and go out, link up with First Squad. For the specifics, follow their assignments."

"Got it."

The two of them straightened their clothes, adjusted their disguises, and got out of the car.

ZZZ—

Just then, the static came again.

"Lin Bro, CCTV shows that yesterday a foreign couple stayed in that room and left at nine this morning. After housekeeping cleaned it, no one else went in."

"What about that Black couple? Anything off about them?"

"Very young, around twenty or so, look rich. At their age, I really don’t see how they’d be connected to Mammon."

"Around twenty..."

Lin Yi muttered.

At that age, just being initiated would already be pretty impressive.

They really didn’t look like Mammon people.

"My guess is someone booked the room over the phone, or he booked it himself."

"Besides that, anyone suspicious around the hotel?"

"No, everything looks normal."

"Alright, keep watching."

He hung up the comms and relayed the details to Qiu Yuluo.

She said,

"From the looks of it, he’s the only one in the room right now."

"Maybe in Mammon’s plan, it’s not time to make contact with him yet."

"These people are really damn cautious."

"They’re getting harder and harder to read."

Like that, a full day and night passed.

First Squad and Second Squad kept watch the whole time, and Zhang Jinquan never left his room.

He only called room service once, to have some food sent up.

Other than that, he had no contact with anyone.

And over the next three days, Zhang Jinquan’s routine still didn’t change at all.

He ordered room service once a day, but only once, and at no fixed time—no pattern to it.

That kind of behavior was slowly wearing down Lin Yi and Qiu Yuluo’s patience.

If they hadn’t had people watching nonstop, they’d almost have suspected Zhang Jinquan had slipped out some other way.

"You think the waiter who brings his food every day might be a problem?"

Qiu Yuluo looked at Lin Yi.

"That they’re using this method to pass information."

"But doing it that way is pointless. If it’s just passing messages, there’s no need to make it this complicated."

"Maybe we’ve been made, but Mammon’s people kept quiet and switched to this method."

"Even if they’re passing information, it still doesn’t mean much," Lin Yi said.

"What Zhang Jinquan needs to do is throw himself into Mammon’s arms and use his R&D skills to get their protection. Any messages being passed out aren’t important."
