Chapter 009: Guest, Do You Need Service?

There was someone!

It seemed they had noticed their presence, and the figure turned around and walked straight toward them.

She was dressed in a black business suit, her tall and curvaceous figure accentuated by the outfit. Her long legs were wrapped in black stockings, exuding an irresistible charm of maturity and sensuality. Her flowing black hair swayed with her steps.

So beautiful.

The blond-haired Taisuke was completely mesmerized, and Tanaka Ichiro's eyes widened. Even with years of experience in society, it was the first time he had encountered such an elegant and stunning career woman.

A new participant in this bizarre game?

"Hello, dear guests. I am Fukada Mayu, a staff member of the Koi no Kokoro Love Hotel. Is there anything I can assist you with? Any service at all."

Her enchanting voice resonated, relentlessly stimulating their nerves.

Any service? Anything at all?

The blood in Taisuke and the middle-aged man's veins seemed to rush faster, and a fire of lust ignited within them.

At the elevator entrance, Hoshino Ai's face paled as soon as she heard this.

A staff member in the hotel? That's definitely something unnatural!

She swallowed nervously, instinctively wanting to retreat into the elevator and head to the third floor. However, she suppressed her fear and held her position, her gaze involuntarily shifting toward the lobby.

Faced with Fukada Mayu, the lust in Taisuke and the middle-aged man's hearts grew uncontrollable.

Just as they were about to lose themselves and respond to her, Lin Ye suddenly stepped forward and delivered a forceful kick to each of them.

These two couldn't die just yet. They hadn't even settled into the hotel. If they lost two members now, who would share the burden in the trials ahead?

The sharp pain brought both men back to their senses, and they quickly realized the gravity of their current situation.

A staff member? A staff member of the Koi no Kokoro Love Hotel? Seriously, there's actually a staff member?!

At this moment, Taisuke and the middle-aged man quickly lowered their heads, pulling their gazes away, no longer daring to look at the staff member.

The rules were clear: ignore her. Just ignore her.

"Dear guests, is there anything I can help you with?" she asked again.

Ignore her.

Continue to ignore her.

Under Lin Ye's silent reminder—a firm pat on the shoulder—Taisuke and the middle-aged man bit their lips hard, using the pain to resist the influence of her voice. They made their way to the self-check-in machine.

Taisuke began operating the machine, re-registering their stay.

Lin Ye avoided directly looking at the staff member's face. Instead, he focused on her feet to keep track of her position. After Taisuke and the middle-aged man started ignoring her, the staff member remained stationary and fell silent.

The spacious, brightly lit lobby, despite having four people in it, felt devoid of any warmth. Instead, an eerie silence hung in the air, broken only by the occasional sound of buttons being pressed on the machine.

Finally, the check-in process was completed, securing rooms 304 and 307.

Yet, neither man felt any relief. There was still a highly dangerous presence in the lobby, one mistake away from death.

"Let's hurry back to the third-floor rooms," they urged.

"Okay."

As soon as Taisuke finished replying, he suddenly realized something was wrong.

The voice he had just heard didn't belong to the middle-aged man; it was Kuroda Hikari is voice. But Kuroda wasn't even on the first floor!

Gulp…

Fearfully, he shifted his gaze, and with even the slightest movement, he caught sight of a pair of long, alluring legs wrapped in black stockings.

The woman, who had been over ten meters away just a moment ago, was now right beside him.

Instantly, a chill ran down Taisuke's back.

"Run…"

Taisuke didn't hesitate anymore and bolted toward the elevator. The middle-aged man reacted quickly too, both of them using every ounce of strength they had, terrified they wouldn't move fast enough.

Swish…Swish…

The once-bright white incandescent lights in the lobby began to flicker wildly, and the temperature dropped rapidly.

But no matter how hard Taisuke ran, he found he couldn't move forward at all, while the middle-aged man was already close to reaching the elevator.

"Help me…"

"Brother Lin, help me!" Taisuke screamed for help.

Feeling the oppressive force behind him and the icy chill growing stronger, Taisuke's legs trembled, and he was on the verge of tears.

Why me?!

An unidentifiable, hand-like presence began to slowly stretch toward him.

"Guest, service…"

"For you… service."

This kind of service, even a dog wouldn't want!

Clinging to the last shred of reason, Taisuke didn't dare respond in any way.

"Brother Lin, save me! I-I'll let Kuroda accompany you, okay? Please, she likes me, but I'll let her be with you! She'll definitely agree!"

Scum.

Lin Ye's expression grew colder.

This guy was even more detestable than Ichiro Tanaka in some ways.

[Time Freeze] activated.

Time came to a standstill once more.

"Let's see what's up with this staff member," Lin Ye murmured.

"I wonder if a purely physical approach could kill her."

As for saving Taisuke? Lin Ye had always considered Taisuke Zeyanaga to be better off dead.

But this wasn't the right time.

Who knew if participants killed by the supernatural here would become new supernatural threats themselves?

Moreover,

Given the "game" aspect of the Eerie Game and his knowledge from similar infinite-loop novels in his previous life, Lin Ye suspected that after clearing the game, rewards and points would likely be calculated.

The number of survivors would likely influence the evaluation rating.

Thus,

When it was within reason, Lin Ye didn't mind helping.

But he wouldn't go out of his way. That was Lin Ye's approach.

Grabbing a solid wooden chair from the lobby, Lin Ye began to walk forward, slowly but deliberately.
