"Why don't you go check the restroom?"
Roy definitely couldn't go into the women's restroom, or he'd definitely be seen as a pervert. But Jennifer would have no problem.
"Okay, I'll go take a look. It wouldn't be good if she passed out in the bathroom."
Jennifer nodded and left the private room, heading towards the restrooms.
A moment later, Jennifer rushed back to the room anxiously.
"Roy, something's wrong! Penny isn't in the restroom!"
"No way? Could she have gone into the wrong room?"
Roy didn't think too much of it. After all, it's normal to go into the wrong room when you're drunk.
Back in his previous life, Roy had once gone into the wrong private room after drinking too much and sang in there for half an hour before his friends found him.
So, Roy started knocking on the doors of each private room, looking for Penny. Soon, he arrived at the bar owner's room.
The door to this room opened a bit slowly, and the person who opened it was particularly grumpy.
"What's with all the knocking? Who are you?"
The bar owner glanced at Roy, and some unpleasant memories immediately flooded his mind. He immediately wanted to close the door, but Roy had already jammed his hand in the doorframe.

"I feel like I know you from somewhere!"
Being tipsy affected Roy's memory attribute a bit. After all, his impression of the bar owner wasn't as deep as the bar owner's impression of him.
The bar owner tried to slam the door shut, wanting to make Roy give up, but unfortunately, the pain only made Roy more sober.
"Fuck! I don't know you, get lost!"
That "fuck" finally awakened Roy's memory.
"You're that bar owner!"
Roy immediately understood that Penny must be in this guy's hands, so he put in a little force and pushed the door open.
"You, you better not come any closer!"
Jennifer followed closely behind Roy into the room and saw Penny tied up in the corner.
"Penny, are you okay?"
"I'm fine! This son of a bitch tried to rape me, but he couldn't even get it up!"
Penny spat on the ground, looking at the bar owner with disdain.
After Penny almost turned this guy into a eunuch, it seemed he had developed some kind of psychological trauma towards her.
Although his brain told the bar owner to retaliate against Penny, his body just couldn't do it.
"Damn bastard! Penny, how do you want to deal with him?"
Penny, who had been untied by Jennifer, walked up to the bar owner through gritted teeth. This guy seemed to realize something and desperately begged for mercy.
Unfortunately, Penny didn't want to let go of someone who had almost raped her.
"Go to hell, trash!"
She flew up and kicked the bar owner in the groin. The force was so strong that even Roy felt a phantom pain.
However, this guy's life could still be saved. Penny was still relatively kind.
"Roy, let's go!"
After watching the bar owner roll around on the ground for a while, with blood seeping from his hands, Penny's mood finally improved.
After this incident, everyone lost the desire to continue singing karaoke. After all, the police would be showing up soon if they stayed any longer.
Roy picked up Heather, while Jennifer carried Needy on her back. The five of them booked a room in a hotel near the karaoke bar.
They didn't choose the previous hotel, mainly because Roy wanted to avoid trouble.
Originally, he thought tonight was a perfect opportunity for a five-person game, but Needy and Heather were both dead drunk, so Roy had to settle for a three-person game first.
The first person in line was naturally Penny, the birthday girl of the day. Jennifer was also willing to give Penny some space.
In the bathtub, the two of them soaked in warm water together.
"Roy, it seems like every time I'm in danger, you appear like a hero to save me?"
"Really? How many times have I saved you?"
Penny started counting on her fingers.
"..."
According to Penny's calculation, it seemed like Roy had indeed saved her many times, but in reality, many of those incidents were things they had experienced together.
"So, how are you going to thank me?"
Penny stood up firmly, then slowly sat back down, letting Roy clearly feel her gratitude.
"Hmm! I'll follow you forever, Roy! No matter what, don't leave me, okay?"
Roy naturally wouldn't refuse such a humble request.
"As long as you don't actively leave me, I won't abandon you!"
"Are you guys done yet? Don't catch a cold in there!"
Jennifer outside couldn't take it anymore. It was impossible for Roy to catch a cold with his physique, so the main concern was Penny.
Roy thought about it, and Jennifer had a point. He himself was resistant, but he shouldn't let Penny catch a cold.
Caucasians had particularly poor resistance to colds, and it could easily turn into pneumonia.
"Coming out now!"
[Ding! Obtained Penelope Brown's Conquest Treasure Chest! Open it?]
So, Roy carried Penny, whose eyes were rolled back, out of the bathtub and used a towel to dry her body.
Jennifer stood with her hands on her hips, looking at Roy.
"Finally decided to come out?"
Roy scratched his head.
"Need a hand."
It took the two of them some effort to get Penny settled, and Jennifer ended up breaking a sweat.
"Whew, I need to take a shower first!"
"Wait for me, let's shower together!"
"Ah! What are you doing! Haven't you already showered?"
"I'm just a clean person!"
At this moment, Jennifer suddenly switched to Lilith.
"Well, because your bloodline fusion ritual was very successful, it allowed Jennifer's body to fuse into a perfect state. In other words, her body has now returned to its pure state."
Roy really hadn't expected the bloodline fusion ritual to have this kind of effect.
"You need Jennifer to maintain a pure body?"
"Yes, some magic can only be used with a pure body, so at least until my daughter is dealt with, it's best to keep Jennifer in her current state."
Roy hesitated for a moment.
Generally speaking, people who are drunk are always easily thirsty.
When the drunk Needy was sleeping groggily, she was woken up by some strange noises and then remembered she wanted a drink of water.
After opening her eyes, Needy found herself in an unfamiliar room.
Where is this? What are these strange noises?
Because the alcohol in her body hadn't completely broken down yet, Needy felt like she was walking on clouds as she went to the restroom.
Needy really wanted to leave, but she found that she couldn't control her body at all, and her legs even gave out, causing her to collapse onto the floor.
The noise behind her caught Roy's attention, and he turned around.
"Ah! Needy? Don't look!"
Roy gently laid Jennifer down and then helped Needy up.
"Needy, are you ready?"
Needy had originally planned to dedicate herself to Roy on his birthday, but sometimes plans just couldn't keep up with changes.
Just like now, Needy seemed to be unable to restrain herself, covering her face and nodding slightly.
"I, I've been ready for a long time! I, I look forward to this day every day!"
Actually, Roy also wanted to give Needy a more perfect first time, but with Claire's example before him, he felt it was necessary to change his approach.
"Then let's begin!"
"It doesn't seem like this in the movies?"
This made Roy laugh.
"You've even watched those kinds of movies?"
Needy was very shy.
"I was just a little curious, so I watched them!"
"Is that so? Then you can experience it firsthand today."
"Wait, wait a minute, I'm not mentally prepared yet!"
...
"Movies are movies, reality is reality!"
[Ding! Obtained Needy Lesnicki's Conquest Treasure Chest! Open it?]
Looking at his成果 with satisfaction, Roy originally wanted to see what he could get from the two treasure chests. Jennifer, who had the best physique, suddenly woke up and stretched.
"Roy, haven't you forgotten something?"
He really had! Roy had promised to go back and check on Claire and bring her dinner!
Looking at the time, it was already one o'clock in the morning.
Crap!
Roy quickly got up and put on his clothes.
"Jennifer, help me take care of the others, especially Needy!"
"Did you even need to say that?"
"Then I'll go first. Call me if anything happens!"
After saying that, Roy hurriedly left the room.
On the other side, Claire had been waiting for Roy in the hotel. Fortunately, she had eaten a lot of food at noon, and she hadn't exercised much in the afternoon, so her stomach wasn't too hungry.
However, lying in bed all the time was quite boring, so Claire turned on the TV, planning to watch some programs.
Suddenly, a news report caught Claire's attention.
A man in New York City died after being impaled through the mouth by a steel bar that fell from the sky while he was walking past a construction site.
Generally speaking, a few deaths in New York City are no big deal. After all, nearly a hundred people die unnaturally in this city every day on average, and that's just the ones that are counted.
Deaths of undocumented immigrants, homeless people, and the like are not counted at all.
And this man's way of death was quite unique, which is why it was on TV.
The reason Claire noticed this man was because this guy was the one who had called her during the day, one of the survivors of the plane crash.
This guy actually died?
Claire found it a bit unbelievable. Then she remembered what the man had said during the phone call earlier, suspecting that the airline wanted to kill people to silence them.
Could it really be a silencing? Otherwise, it would be too much of a coincidence, right?
Just as she was thinking this, Claire felt a sudden chill for no reason. Maybe it was because she had drunk too much water, but she suddenly needed to use the restroom.
When Claire stood up, she didn't notice that the glass on the table was suddenly covered in water droplets.
Despite a day of rest, Claire was still a bit uncomfortable, and she moved very slowly when walking.
After entering the restroom, Claire noticed that the mirror was inexplicably covered in steam, which made her feel a bit strange.
It was only April, and the climate in New York shouldn't be so humid.
"Could it be that the humidifier was turned on?"
The hotel's central air conditioning usually includes multiple functions. Sometimes the previous guest turned on the humidifier and didn't turn it off, and the new guest wouldn't notice.
Claire was about to check the air conditioning panel when she suddenly slipped.
Maybe the slip was too sudden, but Claire instinctively wanted to grab the sink.
This sink was a floating design, supported entirely by the side fixed to the wall.
However, perhaps due to disrepair, the place where the sink was fixed and supported had broken, and the entire sink actually fell off.
Claire fell to the ground unexpectedly and almost got hit by the sink.
Fortunately, Claire had been working out regularly for years and had good reflexes, but she accidentally pulled her wound while dodging, causing her considerable pain.
With the breaking of the sink, some of the water pipes also had problems, and these pipes started spraying water like crazy.
Claire really wanted to get up and leave the restroom, but she couldn't get up after several attempts.
Just at this moment, Claire suddenly noticed that a socket on the wall under the sink seemed to have come loose due to the spraying water, and the wires inside had popped out.
Claire instantly felt a chill run down her spine.
