After finally calming down in their hearts.

"Well, since we're already in, let's start acting quickly."

Although still a bit frightened, they couldn't afford to waste time because of this.

Moreover, they had to be cautious now as there could be police guarding this place.

So, the three of them, while being cautious and watchful, gradually approached their own room.

Well, although according to the previous draw, Ryuto and Miyuki were supposed to share a room, in the end, all three of them ended up in Ryuto and the others' room, as it was not very wise to split up at this time.

Upon closer inspection, they found that there was no one in front of their room.

Hmm? What's going on? Do they not know my room number? Or my identity? Or is this just a trap?

Well, regardless, they decided to sneak in first and figure it out later.

Speaking of which, why did it feel like they were sneaking into their own room?

Anyway, the three of them entered the room directly when there was no one in the corridor, of course, Miyuki had the room key card.

After entering, they looked around.

"It seems like no one has been here."

"Yeah, whether it's the things on the table or the luggage, it seems like nothing has been touched."

Miyuki tried to confirm.

"So, Ryuto, if that's the case, those people weren't here to find us?"

Facing Hiyori's question.

"Well... this is a bit contradictory."

Ryuto looked puzzled.

"If we think about it, with so many hotels in this city, why would those police come to this one? Especially after we caused a ruckus at the auction, it's hard for anyone to believe they weren't here for us."

"But the fact is, there's no sign of anyone tampering with the room, so it means it has nothing to do with us, which also means the police weren't here for us."

Miyuki tried to sum it up.

"So, it's quite contradictory, but if we look at it from a different perspective, maybe there's some kind of answer."

Ryuto's words piqued Miyuki's interest.

"A different perspective?"

"Yes, first of all, the police definitely came here to find someone, that's for sure."

"Yeah, you're right."

"And then, since our luggage hasn't been touched, it means the police weren't here for us."

"Ah, that's still contradictory..."

"No, it's not contradictory. The police might not have come to arrest us."

"Which means..."

Miyuki seemed to understand something.

"Exactly, because they weren't here to arrest us, there was no need to search our luggage. But for some reason, they needed to find us, so they have stationed, or rather waited for us in the place we were staying."

"Well, in that case, another question arises. If they weren't here to arrest us, then what were those police looking for us for?"

Saying this, Miyuki shifted her gaze towards Ryuto.

"This should be related to Asuka and the others, right?"

Ryuto directly gave the answer.

"They..."

"Yeah, if they weren't here because of the auction incident, then we have had almost no contact with them. The only explanation is that Asuka and the others did something, and because we are connected to them, that's why they came looking for us."

"Well, that does make sense," nodded Miyuki.

"But we still don't know the purpose of the other party approaching us now, only that it's not too bad," Ryuto's voice just fell.

"Just as you speculated,"

The already locked door suddenly opened from the outside.
