"Great, now everything inside this tavern belongs to me!"
Being someone who often engages in such activities, Cao Xing could be said to be quite experienced.
He went straight to the tavern’s bar and started rummaging through the drawers.
After some fiddling, he pulled out a large pile of Crowns from the counter’s drawer, along with many room keys.

He glanced at the liquor cabinet behind him, which contained many sealed bottles of alcohol.
Cao Xing wasn’t one to refuse free things and put them all into his backpack.

In total, he gathered 36 bottles of alcohol, value unknown.
Compared to such a large tavern, this small haul certainly couldn’t satisfy Mr. Cao,
He thought to himself, "Usually, taverns have a basement."
"The basement is where most of the supplies are stored."
After all, last time at that village’s tavern, Cao Xing found quite a few good things.
He began searching every inch of the ground floor.
The True Vision constantly scanned the area, leaving no corner untouched.
Curiously, after making a round, he found no signs of a basement.
He stomped on the floor, and it sounded heavy.
A look of doubt appeared in Cao Xing’s eyes, "Could it be that this tavern doesn’t have a basement?"
"Is their alcohol transported from elsewhere?"
It’s not an impossible thought.
If there were really a hidden area like a basement, with Cao Xing’s careful exploration, it would have been exposed long ago.
However, even without a basement, Cao Xing didn’t give up.
After all, he still had 24 keys in hand.
Looking at the staircase leading to the second floor, he stepped up directly.
Upon reaching the second floor, he found a series of rooms.
He randomly approached the door of one room, which had a plaque hanging on it.

[Hostess: Sati Romanuo]
Seeing the System Prompt, Cao Xing’s mouth twitched.
"Damn, this price is really expensive, 3500 Crowns an hour."
Clearly, this is a place usually used by those drunks or rich people for rest and pleasure.
Cao Xing directly pulled out the string of keys and found the number for ’1’ Room.
He inserted the key and pushed the door open.
A simple room appeared in front of him, with a large red bed inside and some wooden furniture.
Of course, there was not a single person inside.
Cao Xing began rummaging through drawers and cabinets.

It was all sorts of random stuff.
After searching one room, Cao Xing moved on to the next one. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ N0v3l.Fiɾe.net
Soon, he had searched through all the rooms on the second floor of the tavern.
In total, he obtained seventy to eighty thousand Crowns.
Cao Xing shook his head, "No, such a large tavern only has this little stuff."
However, fortunately, there is still a shred of hope.
Because there is still a third floor that hasn’t been searched.
He walked straight up the stairs, and once again a corridor appeared in front of him, with twelve rooms on either side.
Among them, two rooms were particularly special, seemingly at the far end of the corridor.
He glanced at the first room at the entrance.

The rooms on the third floor were priced even higher, directly doubling.
However, the service personnel inside were also younger.
Cao Xing shook his head and quickly finished scouring the ten rooms outside.
They still contained some coins and other random things.
Now, only two rooms remained unexplored on the entire third floor.
These were also the most special two rooms.
Cao Xing directly arrived at the end of the corridor.
The two rooms were almost opposite each other.
The special feature was that one used a beautifully carved wooden door, while the other was an iron door.

"Five thousand crowns an hour, robbery!"
However, Illusion Dream Tavern set prices based on these women’s figures and looks.
Since they dared to charge five thousand crowns an hour, it indicates that whoever is inside likely holds a very special position.
Moreover, with no name or age marked above, it also sparked a hint of curiosity in Cao Xing’s heart...
