“Rest assured, so losses can never be compensated for, no matter what you
In an instant, everyone’s gaze converged on the speaker.
The words seed 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 deanor suggested utter disregard for him.
The hotel manager was unsure of the man’s background, but it was evident that the situation could escalate into serious trouble if not handled carefully.
“I am truly sorry for the inconvenience. We didn’t wish for this to happen. May I inquire what you’ve lost? We will do our best to compensate you. If the loss is beyond compensation, we can discuss alternative solutions. What do you think?”
The manager’s tone was as submissive as it could be, but the man seed unwilling to afford him any leeway.
“We’ve already told you, you can’t compensate for our loss!”
The manager realized that re words would not resolve the situation.
“Since matters have escalated to this point, could you please guide us on how to appease your anger?”
Finally, the man’s tone softened slightly.
“Our item was lost just this morning. We’ve 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. ”
The manager’s face turned ashen. He knew that this thod would surely uncover the thief but at the cost of upsetting many guests.
“Our hotel serves more than just you; we have many other guests. We cannot invade their privacy for one person’s sake.”
The manager’s refusal was unambiguous. The man snorted disdainfully. “Are you willing to offend us for the sake of this motley crowd?”
As he said this, he stepped back, and another individual erged. The manager’s expression changed dramatically when he saw who it was.
“I apologize for the oversight. Had I known it was you, I would have cooperated imdiately.”
With a wave of his hand, security personnel moved to block all the hotel’s exits.
“Search every room thoroughly. Don’t let anyone escape; we must find that despicable thief!”
The other guests imdiately voiced their objections. “What do you an? Are you going to search our belongings?” “Is this hotel shutting down or what?”
Amid the uproar, the manager had no choice but to assert himself.
“Calm down! If you’re innocent, you have nothing to worry about. But if anyone here is the thief, rest assured, we won’t let you off!”
Luo Feng was sowhat surprised at the sudden change in the manager’s deanor. He wondered who could possibly give the manager such confidence. But before he could ask anyone, objections arose.
“Who is this guy? Why should all of us accommodate him? If the hotel is going to search, then find my lost items too!”
“Exactly, forget about compensation. Let’s see how far this hotel is willing to
Amidst the shouts, the manager smiled.
“Have you never heard of Mr. Hohenheim from the Sumr Group?”
As soon as the na ‘Hohenheim’ was ntioned, most of the protesters fell silent, except for a few who didn’t recognize the na. “I don’t care who Hohenheim is. No one gets to override my rights!” “Whoever it is, they’re not searching my luggage today!”
