Chapter 64: Hotel
Chapter 64: Hotel
'Hmm...so where's the nearest hotel?' Jin thought and pulled out his phone.
Maps app was as reliable as always and within a few seconds Jin was able to find several hotels nearby.
Instead of looking at the prices he instead looked at their stars. There was only one 5-star hotel near him so he decided to go there.
He raised his hand to stop a taxi and soon arrived at the hotel.
A 15-storey finely crafted building welcomed his eyes.
The Hotel looked enormous and luxurious. Jin knew it would cost him a lot to stay here and that it might attract suspicion if one looked into him therefore he had planned to book a room for 2 days at first.
Once he got accepted by an agency he could ask for an advance and using the advance as an excuse he could continue to live in this luxurious hotel.
"I would like to book a single room for 2 days," Jin said to the receptionist.
The receptionist looked at Jin and said, with a professional smile, "Certainly Sir," before proceeding to type something on the computer. Finding that there were rooms available she asked Jin for his ID.
"Sir, can you please provide me with your original ID,"
"Sure," Jin handed out his ID.
With the ID in hand, the receptionist filled in all the necessary information and the checking-in procedure was completed.
"That would be 25,000 Draks for 2 days Sir,"
The receptionist said as she pushed the card-swiping machine towards Jin.
Jin paid the amount. He felt a bit proud of himself. A few months back he wouldn't have imagined that he would be booking a room in a 5-star hotel like this even in his dreams.
"Mr. Jin, your room number is 84, it is on the 8th floor. Here's your keycard and I hope you'll have a pleasant stay here,"
"Thank you," Jin said and was soon guided to his room by one of the staff He showed him around his room and told him all the things that he needed to know to have a pleasant stay here.
"I'll be going the sir, call me anytime you need me," the man said as he prepared himself to leave.
"Alright, thank you," Jin nodded at him and saw him leave. Enjoy exclusive content from M-V-L
Now that he was all alone in the room the first thing he did was to take a shower. The bathroom looked fantastic and was worth every penny.
After a relaxing hot shower which soothed both his mind and body Jin fell on the bed like a log. He was way too exhausted to think about dinner.
When his eyes opened up it was already seven in the evening.
Growl~
He hadn't had lunch so it was obvious that his stomach was showing its dissatisfaction.
Jin got up and yawned. He changed into some presentable clothes and went to the ground floor where the restaurant was.
Murmur ~
While Jin was making his way to the restaurant he found something amiss. Several people were looking at him and murmuring things.
'Was my interview that famous?' Jin thought. He couldn't think of any other reason for people to know him.
As if to prove his thought right a 17-year-old boy approached him hesitantly and asked, "Excuse me, can I have a selfie with you?"
"Oh? Sure," Jin had no reason to refuse. He gave a signature thumbs-up with his right hand and smiled a little for the camera.
Seeing that Jin looked approachable more and more people wanted to take photographs with him to Jin's dismay.
Initially, he was happy to see this but soon realised how mundane it was to smile at the camera again and again and again.
By the time he was finished, it was close to eight and his stomach was raging over this delay.
Jin finally ordered his food and had a heart meal there. Here too, he didn't escape the eyes of other customers who were holding themselves back from approaching him since he was eating his dinner.
'I've not even become an actor yet but they're already making me feel like one,' He joshed himself.
With his stomach full Jin left the restaurant after taking pictures with a few more people.
When he was in his room Jin sat comfortably on the sofa to relax. The post-meal lethargy was as strong as always, unfazed by the 3 hours of sleep Jin had before.
He pulled out his phone from his pocket and started searching various Entertainment agencies out there. Some good samaritan had created a website where he had ranked these agencies.
Jin thanked the person in his heart and started going through all those agencies one by one.
He skipped the top most ones, cause he knew that his chances were close to zero if he applied there.
Jin's eyes went below the top 5 agencies and started looking at them one by one. Searching about how the agency was going on, whether they were making a profit, a loss, or just barely making it.
All the information was available on the website so he didn't need to go anywhere else.
He opened his notepad app and started writing the names of the agencies he would be visiting tomorrow.
By the time he was done with it, there were names of thirty different agencies in his app. It took him an hour to segregate them from 100 other mid-tier agencies.
Jim thought that he would be sleepy once he was done with this task but that didn't happen.
'Wasn't there a gym on the 3rd floor? I should go and sweat a bit, I'll naturally fall asleep if I'm exhausted enough,' Jin thought and made his way out.
When he reached the gym there was only one person in there. A woman in a hoodie who was running on a treadmill with headphones on.
'Damn, she looks locked in,' Jin thought in admiration. He didn't disturb her and started lifting weights.
