[00:15.64]The Coffee Cup
[00:23.30]神秘的咖啡杯
[00:32.03]Everyday, a half-empty cup of coffee was on that table
[00:36.68]when I opened and the chair was pulled back.
[00:40.60]I knew the restaurant manager inspected the dining room
[00:44.24]before locking up at night,
[00:46.76]so I believed the dinner crew when they denied leaving it.
[00:51.94]The only employee on duty at night
[00:54.83]was one of two graveyard 1 shift desk clerks,
[00:59.42]yet they both denied doing it
[01:02.43]and it really made no sense for them
[01:04.86]to leave the front desk unattended
[01:07.84]and risk being fired just to go through the hassle
[01:11.45]of unlocking 2 the dining room to sit in there
[01:14.37]and drink coffee at a back table
[01:17.06]when there was coffee and a television at the front desk.
[01:22.07]The hotel had no security guard,
[01:24.81]so that was not an available explanation either.
[01:28.64]Around the end of August,
[01:31.03]I again got to the dining room
[01:33.26]after the kitchen crew had turned on the kitchen lights.
[01:37.51]As I entered the dining room,
[01:39.54]I again saw the silhouette 3 of someone sitting at that table.
[01:44.74]I was not going to let the person escape again
[01:47.74]before finding out who it was,
[01:51.21]so without turning away to turn on the lights,
[01:55.10]I walked straight across the dining room
[01:57.84]toward where this person was seated.
