Is it possible that a drunk person can wake up in about half an hour and confirm the information of the person staying with the hotel staff?
The female employee involved in Ali said that she checked the surveillance. At around 22:45 that night, when Wang Mouwen and the female business employee drove her back to the hotel, “I was the room he was holding back to, and I had no consciousness at all.”
So how did Atour Hotel get the confirmation of a drunk person?

According to her, when Wang Mouwen applied for the room card, she was drunk and stayed in the room. If she did not go to the front desk, how did the hotel staff get her confirmation?
