[Part 1. Just like that time and that moment] Lan
Note that this man’s name is Xiaoshuai. He works at the exchange in Eureka Volcano City. He is commonly known as a stock trader and is also a financial consultant for a shipping company.
He has long since left the life of the toiling masses relying on selling their labor for wages, and is a senior worker in a consortium.
He is diligent and thrifty, endures hardships and stands hard work, clocks in to work on time every day, and devotes himself to the club. Even after get off work, Xiaoshuai will never drink or socialize with his boss, and refuses useless socializing.
This middle-class man firmly believes that one day he will reach the top of the financial group and become an excellent carnivore. When his wealth reaches a certain level, he will be able to turn over and cross the dragon gate.
The ideal is beautiful, the reality is very skinny——
——Xiao Shuai avoided the sensuality, avoidance of the feast, and finally fell to pieces in a video arcade.
At this moment, he was in a game arcade on the seaside road, taking off the suit worn by adults, his hair was covered with sweat, and he no longer looked cool. Lan
His eyes were bloodshot, and he had not closed his eyes for two consecutive days and nights. His hands and feet were cold, and he was looking straight at the various light sources emitted by the electronic machines in front of him.
He has a notepad on hand, which corresponds to the different arrangement and combinations of the slot machine pictures. He records thousands of statistical results, trying to figure out the mysteries in the gambling machine.
】
Further away are empty cans of various refreshing drinks, and two ashtrays are filled with cigarette butts before they can be emptied.
At first, Xiaoshuai just wanted to come to the game arcade to relax and escape from the cruel battle of the stock market, so he went to the arcade to reminisce about his childhood.
But soon, he stopped and watched in front of the slot machine, thinking that this kind of mathematical logic was simple, and the game machine controlled by electronic program could not challenge him at all, so he became competitive - in his eyes, the stock market The K-line in it is more beautiful than a woman’s body curve. Could this trick of defrauding the elderly and children out of money be a problem for him, a top financial student?
So in forty-eight hours, he lost more than eight million, not even counting his tuition fees.
He has been completely tied in front of this machine and turned into raw material in the flesh and blood juicer. Lan
He could hear sounds, speak, and communicate with others normally, but he could not stop pulling the joystick.
Like a walking zombie, whenever the dial of the slot machine stops turning, he will immediately follow the strong sound and light stimulation, immediately put in new chips, and start the next game without hesitation.
At the same time, there are more than 300 positions in this Mengdie Game Hall——
——Others are like Xiaoshuai, flapping buttons crazily, trying to find signals of happiness from electronic programs.
They waved their right hands and the sound of tapping machines followed the beat of the music in the hall. Some people's fingers were already yellowed by incense smoke. Due to long-term use of one limb, many people's shoulders and necks have begun to feel sore, and their movements are unnatural and deformed. However, as long as the machine sends out clear signals of rewards and punishments, new numbers, pictures, sounds and lights will appear on the table.
These people will start the next game without hesitation.
Xiaoshuai's mobile phone was thrown aside. His personal communication number turned on the anti-harassment mode. He didn't answer any calls from the company. He didn't go to work for two days. He seemed to have forgotten his social identity and turned into a professional gambler. . Lan
In the crowded game hall, the landlady looked at this scene with satisfaction——
——She is the asset manager of the Eros Mercy Society, and her name is O'Connor Yin Elizabeth.
This pretty lady controls three large casinos, eight game halls, and sixteen comprehensive entertainment rooms. On Eureka's exchange, the assets of the Eros Mercy Society are managed by her.
She didn't take Concho Johnny's warning to heart, and she didn't want to follow the president and become a coward.
Her businesses need to be run by her personally, and she can use the soul power of [lucky seven·lucky seven] to quickly increase her wealth.
"My little cutie..." O'Connor picked up the phone and chatted with one of her lovers about the recent situation: "You don't know how sad this day is."
This beautiful woman was leaning against the counter, her slender fishtail skirt unable to cover her hot figure. Lan
"Ao Hun Mingde has just left. I can't possibly stay at the head office and enjoy the northwest wind, right?"
"They say money is hard to make and shit is hard to eat - if I were gone from these places, how much less would I make every day?"
"The president is old and wants stability in everything. He can keep his head down and come back to start over again in more than ten years. We don't have this chance. You have to know that if the blood-giving monster doesn't eat people, it won't survive. It won’t be long.”
She has shiny black hair, and the nasolabial folds and some wrinkles at the end of her eyes show that she is not young. Even if the blessed blood can slow down aging, Ms. O'Connor is probably over seventy. Years old.
As she said, based on the money-making efficiency of [lucky seven·lucky seven], without such a soul figure like her, the daily revenue of these casinos would drop by two-thirds. The president of the Cupid Mercy Society asked all cadres to obey orders, but O'Connor couldn't stop.
At this moment——
——The prize ticket stall outside the door has several new customers. Lan
Ms. O'Connor tilted her head, lit a cigarette, and blew out a stream of purple gas from her flaming red lips. It gradually gathered into a small person, and the spirit body became solid and powerful, and the whole body showed noble purple and gold colors. The top prize of the slot machine - Qiqiqi - is printed on his forehead.
The little man seemed to have seen a distinguished guest and trotted out eagerly. The guest didn't have much interest in the lottery booth, so he put away his gambling and was about to leave. [Lucky Seven] immediately grabbed one of them by the trouser leg.
The customer stumbled and fell on the steps of the store, breaking his tooth. Cursing, he got up and saw an extra ticket on his bloody chin.
“Oh! Wow! Wow!
! I won fifteen thousand dollars! So damn lucky! "
O'Connor smiled and stuck out her slender tongue, and saw [Lucky Seven] running in with Broken Tooth in her arms and bumping into her mother's mouth.
Looking around, a small number of people in the game room also have such a golden little companion with purple light.
As long as the guests feel frustrated because of the pain caused by losing money, [Lucky Seven] will immediately find ways to stimulate the guests' nerves from all angles to keep them playing. Lan
No matter how rich a gambler is, he will lose all his money one day. O'Connor's [Lucky Seven] has a strong ability to attract customers, giving these gambling establishments a steady stream of new blood.
"Have fun!" The landlady said with charming eyes. She hung up the phone and left her lover behind, and started talking nice words to the new guests.
She would never say "good luck" or "have fun" -
——Because the seaside casino in Eureka Volcano City is definitely not a place where gamblers can make money.
"Hehehe..." O'Connor looked at all this triumphantly: "President, I have to say that you are a very good leader. At first, when I got [lucky seven·lucky seven], I had no idea about it. What's the use of these little people? You, with your discerning eye, have allowed me to achieve what I have today - but unfortunately you are too cautious and too timid."

[part2·Star Runner]
At this moment, on the other side of the harbor.
Xueming and Xiaoqi spent their first night on the territory of the Fish Head Gang in Eureka Volcano City.
The boss and the King Hunter have left Eureka Volcano City. Ishimura Takuma and Lan Yinglong will also be escorted back to the Green Gold Tribunal for interrogation. Teacher Victor should be able to dig out more clues.
The students have all gone home, and Xueming and Xiaoqi can let their hands and feet go free.
They were able to avoid the eyes and ears of Canyon Pass and come in quietly with their equipment, and they also relied on the Fish Head Gang to help them——
——There are many native disaster beasts in the sea of Pompeii. The volcanic city of Eureka has a history of more than 400 years. The Fish Head Gang has always existed. It originally had a mutually beneficial relationship with the Cupid Mercy Society. Later, it was changed by Kang Qiang. Ni kicked them away, and the Snow Owl mobilized troops to steal the jobs of these beast units. Lan
Initially, the King Hunters entered Eureka Volcano City through the underground waterway, completely avoiding the search phase of the canyon pass land route.
The boss seemed to have an inexplicable entanglement and friendship with these ancient fish-men. Xue Ming was inconvenient to ask more questions. When he checked into the hotel in the territory of the Yutou Gang, he was still a little uncomfortable.
At around ten o'clock in the morning, the waiter on the first floor knocked on the door of the two distinguished guests and asked Xueming to pay for the room renewal.
As soon as the door opened, he saw a shriveled Yuyu face, looking at Jiang Xueming with sinister and cunning eyes.
"The price has increased today, it costs 300 pyroxene currency."
Xiao Qi shouted in surprise: "Isn't it only thirty yuan a night yesterday?"
The waiter's tentacles and beard twitched: "That's a friendship price for the boss, but it's different today." Lan
Xiao Qi was so angry that she rolled her eyes and spoke in dialect: "Friendship price? I'll cut you into pieces! Half of the whole barbecue platter, half of the whole small meatballs! Count the doves! Thunder..."
"Okay, okay, okay..." Xueming pulled her wife into the bed and took out her hc card to pay the bill.
The waiter sprinkled water on his head to moisturize, and said impatiently: "Your wife is too ignorant, gunsmith... It's not that I'm a big talker, there was a boss here yesterday..."
"Is there a problem?!" Xiaoqi complained under the quilt: "You're a shabby store! There's moisture inside and out, and the toilet leaks. I brushed my teeth in the morning, and when I lowered my head and looked at the good guy, there were many wash basins. I caught three fish! I'm always on tenterhooks when I go to the toilet, for fear that there might be some strange creature here that wants to take a bite of hot food! Just three hundred yuan for this?"
The waiter shrugged helplessly and left in a hurry without intending to explain anything.
Xueming opened the curtains and saw pitch black outside. Occasionally, there were fish swimming around, and from time to time, he could see the blood-giving brothers of the Fish Head Gang catching seafood.
"Xiao Qi, that waiter is right." Lan
9527 opened the quilt, her hair was messy. After hearing what her lover said, she stopped losing her temper and waited for an explanation. She doesn't care about money, she just wants to save face, and everyone in Huangshi saves face.
Xueming explained: "The boss was here yesterday. The boss doesn't have to worry about our safety. The room fee increased today is the confidentiality fee of the Fish Head Gang and the middleman. The people from the Love God Mercy Association don't know that we live here."
Xiao Qi curled her lips: "Hey, if you have something to say, just say it!"
Xueming: "You didn't give him a chance to speak. As soon as he raised the price, you asked him to turn into an octopus ball."
Xiao Qi shrugged helplessly and smiled stupidly.
A grouper swam out of the window and said hello with a smile. The fin on his arm lightly touched the glass of the undersea view room. Xiaoqi immediately blushed and closed the curtains - because she Wearing only underwear.
While going to brush her teeth, Xiaoqi asked about her schedule for the past few days. Lan
"Honey, we can't really spend our honeymoon here."
Xueming was changing clothes, still in casual clothes, and had no intention of using the Morpho clothes and weapon box.
He responded: "Just wait."
Xiaoqi: "When will we wait?"
Xueming: "Tangning and Hasben went to investigate the pavement information on the seaside street."
Xiao Qi: "They didn't return to Galahad?"
Xueming: "These two guys offered to stay at Eureka Volcano to collect intelligence." Lan
Xiaoqi raised her head to rinse her mouth, lowered her head to spit out water, and saw a few more small fry coming out of the washbasin. She flushed the little creatures away dumbfounded, and then asked again.
"When are we going to meet this... Concho Johnny?"
Xueming frowned and took out the mission briefing.
"It will be faster to take your time. Clip this guy's wings first - it is now known that there are more than 70 nominal industries belonging to the Cupid Mercy Society, but there are more and more corporate executives who dare to show up in public. The less, the guy knows we’re checking on him.”
Xiao Qi wiped her face and cursed fiercely.
"More coward than Lawrence Madison? He's really a running boy in the star world! Don't let me catch him! His white hair is all over the floor!"
Xueming took out another photo, which was a portrait of the governor of Eureka Volcano City. Lan
"Although the boss confessed in public that he wanted to remove the consul from his position - there were many, many business owners and political and legal personnel interceding for mercy. This guy wrote two sets of materials, one is a self-criticism to the public, and the other is a speech to the media. It’s so simple to keep the black hat.”
Xiao Qi said angrily: "We can't let this guy go! He colluded with Shi Cun, which is a heinous crime!"
Xueming: "You put your clothes on first. As for this consul, if the boss wants me to kill him directly, you can skip the trial process."
"Oh..." Xiao Qi started to put on casual clothes carelessly. Halfway through, he asked, "Which one should I wear? What are I going to do today?"
Xueming pointed to the two sets of Morpho clothes next to the dressing table: "We will go to the TV station today to wait for news from Hasbon."
In [kingdom·王地], there are many studios and indoor game sessions, all for recording programs for TV stations. The governor also relied on local TV stations in Eureka to whitewash himself and appeal to local citizens and businesses to support him.
If you want to dismember the Eros Mercy Society, the first step is to cut off their throats, so that other members of the Mercy Society and ordinary citizens can stay out of the situation. It is best not to hear the screams of these criminals. Lan
Xiao Qi then put on casual clothes: "Okay! There's no rush, right? We have to wait for the news, right?"
Xueming: "Yes."
Xiaoqi: "Go to the restaurant and get some food! Thank you for your hard work, my dear!"
Xueming nodded, then pushed the door open and walked out.
...
...
The hotel has a long history, and its name is Baiyuan No. - Lan
——It was rebuilt from a sunken ship and is located at the mouth of the underground water system of Eureka Volcano City. The boss is a well-known middleman. People call him Old Khan, but his real name is unknown.
Homeless people are taken in here. After the Fish Head Gang was abandoned by the Cupid Mercy Society, many homeless people and homeless people came here to work and find new jobs. There are also scavengers who have earned some money and can come here to make fake certificates, change their appearance, and start a new life.
The Cupid Mercy Society did not dare to offend the old Khan. Legend has it that the store manager could summon the undead water ghosts in the sea of Pompeii. There was once an unscrupulous salt dealer who caused trouble on the White Ape. This guy owned twelve merchant ships. They all sank in the raging waves of the Pompeii Sea, and finally disappeared in gray, never daring to return to Eureka.
If your memory is good enough, you should be able to recall that when Xueming and fe204863 were on the same flight, he also rescued two little brothers.
One of them is named Billy and the other is Foianini, both newcomers to the Little Brotherhood.
The two older friends accepted reform-through-labor and were released from prison early due to good behavior and came to Eureka Volcano City to make a living.
Introduced by a kid from the Fish Head Gang, Billy and Foianini came to the White Ape Hotel and found a job as a waiter in the kitchen. Lan
"But we can't keep doing this! Billy!" Foianini sat in the southwest corner of the cafeteria and said earnestly to brother Billy, "The little brotherhood is gone! We should find the right opportunity! Join the Cupid." Charity Society! Continue our glorious cause!"
"Shh!" Billy Boy covered his good brother's mouth: "You want to die! Foianini! The boss had dinner here yesterday! Are you going to go back to your old business today?"
Foianini felt aggrieved: "But it's really hard to make money by working hard! I admit, this place does have more oil and water than Clearwater Bay. I can earn seven or eight thousand a month washing dishes at the White Ape. But if you want to be a master, and want to be hugged in wine pools and meat forests, it’s not easy to make money according to this method!"
Billy took out his cell phone with a straight face——
——On the screen of the mobile phone was a photo of O'Connor Lisa White, the proprietress of the big casino.
"I'm about to get close to this rich woman! If you bear with me a little longer, she will call me [little cutie], and it won't be long before we can make an appointment to meet!"
Foianini: "But..." Lan
Billy explained patiently: "Nothing to worry about! Foianini! I once transported h16t for the people of the Little Brotherhood! This is a capital crime! If the boss hadn't been lenient, look at us helping the gunsmith and Mr. Plaque For our sake, little people like us have long been chopped up and made into pig feed.”
Foianini: "But this girl is a cadre of the Cupid Mercy Society! She is so bad! So cunning! I don't know how many people have been harmed!"
"So I, who is just, can't just sit idly by! I can't beat her! Of course I have to change my mind and pick her up!" Billy Boy said smugly: "I don't have any skills, but my face is still very good-looking, and I have a pretty good figure. Yeah! So I want to use love! To influence her!"
The gunsmith came to the two of them with two cups of soy milk and a square bag under his arm, and sat down.
Billy the Kid and Foianini didn't speak for a long time, and the atmosphere became subtle and awkward when they saw their old acquaintance.
Jiang Xueming sent out the soy milk and gave each of the two brothers a cup.
"Say it again, the one before, the cadre of the Cupid Mercy Society began to say." Lan
