Pippen is rich and ostentatious, so he holds grand events like gambling conventions in the city, and invites everyone to play with him. However, these are not important. The purpose of Guan Heng's visit tonight is to As Gray, win their family's ancestral solid gold crest.
"Besides, I didn't expect that Jacques is quite good at taking advantage of people." Guan Heng suddenly smiled: "He actually entrusted me to investigate other matters related to Pippen."
A force is often active in the territory of East County of Kauru Kingdom. This organization is notorious for hiring killers and robbing ordinary people. It is known as the "Poisonous Wolf".
There have been rumors from the outside world that the Poison Wolf Organization has colluded with some local nobles in East County. Because they received information and secret protection from these nobles, the army of the Kingdom of Kauru has been unable to destroy them. However, these are just rumors. Officials have never had any evidence.
Therefore, someone assigned the task of investigating the inside story of "Poison Wolf" to the intelligence organization Black Feather Crow. And this time, the target of Black Feather Crow's investigation has been vaguely pointed at a certain lord in East County, that is, Mr. Pippin. Father.
In the past few days since Pippin arrived in Digon City, the people from Black Feather Crow have been secretly monitoring him. However, in this small place, there are not many experts who can sneak up to Master Pippin and conduct an in-depth investigation.
But the appearance of Guan Heng gave Jacques, the person in charge of the Black Feather Crow stronghold, an opportunity. Jacques asked Guan Heng to conduct an investigation on Mr. Pippin and the people around him at this gambling conference. Anyway, he did it easily. , there was no need to take too much risk, so Guan Heng readily agreed.
At this moment, the gate of the mansion was already full of attendants, welcoming the guests who came to participate in the high-end gambling conference. Everyone was full of excitement and gearing up, preparing to kill everyone tonight and have a lot of fun.
In the back alley, Guan Hengzhuan instantly used the enchantment effect of the avatar mask to transform into Gray. Then he swaggered into the mansion where the high-roller gambling convention was being held, holding an invitation in his hand without any suspense.
After entering the door, I saw that the hall was already filled with dozens of tables, and games that dazzled all kinds of gamblers were played here, whether it was cards, dice or guessing booths, there were all kinds of things, and waiters were holding drinks and food. , flowing endlessly among the crowd.
The gamblers, like red-eyed soldiers on the battlefield, rushed to their favorite tables and began to spend thousands of dollars gambling.
Guan Heng found a deserted corner, first took off his disguise mask and put it into his arms, because the mask could only be used for disguise for fifteen minutes, and he had to use it when facing Mr. Pippin. Anyway, now The scene in the gambling hall was very chaotic, and no one paid attention to Guan Heng's face.
After exchanging a thick pile of chips at the front desk, Guan Heng casually placed two or three bets in front of several tables for playing cards and throwing dice. He gradually felt a little impatient. Thinking of the purpose of his trip, he grabbed a Waiter holding a tray.
"Hey, let me ask you." Guan Heng deliberately pretended to be extremely arrogant and said to the waiter: "Where is my good friend, Mr. Pippin? Why can't I see this kid now? The reason why I am here today I came here late just to have a good gamble with him."
"It turns out that this young master is a friend of Mr. Pippin." Seeing Guan Heng's extraordinary bearing and arrogant expression, the waiter immediately said with a smile on his face: "You may not know when you first come here, but the people downstairs are just ordinary people. Gamblers and Mr. Pippin’s distinguished guests are all having fun in the ten independent private rooms on the second floor.”
"As long as you go up to the second floor, an entourage will immediately lead you to a private room with available seats. In addition, Mr. Pippin still has some secular affairs in the city." The waiter then said to Guan Heng: "So he has already given us instructions in advance. , said he would not come to the high-roller gambling conference until after nine o'clock in the evening."
"I see, I understand." Guan Heng shouted carelessly, picked up a glass of wine from the tray, drank it, and threw a few gold coins to the waiter: "I'll give it to you, kid. ,get out!"
"Yes, yes, thank you very much, young master." The waiter was so happy as he took the gold coins. He said hurriedly: "Master, I wish you good luck in gambling tonight, kill everyone, and win gold and silver."
After saying that, the waiter turned around and ran away, as if he was afraid that Guan Heng would snatch the gold coins back again. Guan Heng was angry and laughed at the same time: "You are so greedy for money, you are easy to get rid of."
He looked at the wall clock on the wall of the hall. The time on it was already half past eight. Guan Heng knew that Mr. Pippin would be arriving in a while. He rolled his eyes, remembered what Jacques said to him, and decided to sneak into this gambler. Let’s explore the young master’s room first.
This mansion was originally the residence of a wealthy businessman in Digong City. However, according to Black Feather Crow's information, the wealthy businessman suddenly disappeared for no reason half a month ago. Mr. Pippin paid a small price to buy it from the wealthy businessman's widow. He bought a mansion in Li, and from then on, this became his residence in Digong City.
Before coming here, Guan Heng had seen the floor plan of the mansion that Jacques gave him. He knew that it was a separate private room for entertaining distinguished guests. The third floor was where the attendants and butlers lived, and the fourth floor was where Mr. Pippin himself lived. There were An extremely spacious living room.
"Well, it seems that climbing from the outer wall to the rooftop on the fourth floor should be an ideal shortcut, because if you take the stairs, you will definitely disturb the followers and servants." Guan Heng was standing at the edge of the garden at this time, looking up at the fourth floor The tall outer wall murmured to itself: "Start climbing up now..."
"Rustling…" At this moment, Guan Heng suddenly heard a rustling sound in the grass in the garden behind him. He frowned slightly and quickly hid in a dark corner. At this time, behind a short tree in the grass , a man's voice sounded in a low voice.
"Why did you come now?" The male voice said with a hint of anger: "I have been waiting for you for more than an hour."
"I'm sorry, dear." A young woman's voice echoed: "The kitchen is really busy right now, so I can't come out to meet you until now."
"Forget it, I don't blame you." The man's voice became softer: "It took a lot of effort for me to sneak in through the back door of the mansion pretending to be a handyman carrying things, just to meet you. We haven’t spent much time together recently, and I miss you very much.”
"My dear, I miss you too." The young cook suddenly cried and sobbed in a low voice: "You were able to become the deputy general manager in this mansion, but it was because I was too talkative and told you everything. They kicked you out because you were inquiring about it.”
