โRest assured, some losses can never be compensated for, no matter what you
In an instant, everyoneโs gaze converged on the speaker.
The words seemed almost designed to provoke. The man looked to be in his forties and was speaking to the hotel manager. Though his eyes were fixed on the manager, his demeanor suggested utter disregard for him.
The hotel manager was unsure of the manโs background, but it was evident that the situation could escalate into serious trouble if not handled carefully.
โI am truly sorry for the inconvenience. We didnโt wish for this to happen. May I inquire what youโve lost? We will do our best to compensate you. If the loss is beyond compensation, we can discuss alternative solutions. What do you think?โ
The managerโs tone was as submissive as it could be, but the man seemed unwilling to afford him any leeway.
โWeโve already told you, you canโt compensate for our loss!โ ๐๐ณ๐๐๐ค๐๐ฃ๐ฏโด๐๐๐.๐คโด๐
The manager realized that mere words would not resolve the situation.
โSince matters have escalated to this point, could you please guide us on how to appease your anger?โ
Finally, the manโs tone softened slightly.
โOur item was lost just this morning. Weโve sealed off the entire hotel; the thief must still be inside. I want you to search every room, one by one, to find our lost property. โ
The managerโs face turned ashen. He knew that this method would surely uncover the thief but at the cost of upsetting many guests.
โOur hotel serves more than just you; we have many other guests. We cannot invade their privacy for one personโs sake.โ
The managerโs refusal was unambiguous. The man snorted disdainfully. โAre you willing to offend us for the sake of this motley crowd?โ
As he said this, he stepped back, and another individual emerged. The managerโs expression changed dramatically when he saw who it was.
โI apologize for the oversight. Had I known it was you, I would have cooperated immediately.โ
With a wave of his hand, security personnel moved to block all the hotelโs exits.
โSearch every room thoroughly. Donโt let anyone escape; we must find that despicable thief!โ
The other guests immediately voiced their objections. โWhat do you mean? Are you going to search our belongings?โ โIs this hotel shutting down or what?โ
Amid the uproar, the manager had no choice but to assert himself.
โCalm down! If youโre innocent, you have nothing to worry about. But if anyone here is the thief, rest assured, we wonโt let you off!โ
Luo Feng was somewhat surprised at the sudden change in the managerโs demeanor. He wondered who could possibly give the manager such confidence. But before he could ask anyone, objections arose.
โWho is this guy? Why should all of us accommodate him? If the hotel is going to search, then find my lost items too!โ
โExactly, forget about compensation. Letโs see how far this hotel is willing to freew(e)bnovel.com
Amidst the shouts, the manager smiled.
โHave you never heard of Mr. Hohenheim from the Summer Group?โ
As soon as the name โHohenheimโ was mentioned, most of the protesters fell silent, except for a few who didnโt recognize the name. โI donโt care who Hohenheim is. No one gets to override my rights!โ โWhoever it is, theyโre not searching my luggage today!โ
