Age of Empires From Scratch Chapter 554

Chapter 554 Burning

 Dajun was invited out. Although he quickly regained his consciousness, he was too embarrassed to sit back and continue the game.

What's more, what happened just now made him realize one thing: the man named David was much stronger than him, and he was no match for him.

 Staying here will only cause more embarrassment to you, so it is better to leave quickly.

As for what Haishan told him to do, it was obvious that he couldn't complete the task at all, and he could only rely on Haishan himself - he was not going to ask for payment or anything else, and all he wanted was to hope that the cruise ship would dock as soon as possible so that he could disembark as soon as possible. leave.

David watched the army leave and waved goodbye to him.

Then he turned to look at Gundam. This time Gundam no longer had a smiling expression, his expression was extremely serious as if he was going to the execution ground.

As a "well-known person in the circle", Gundam the Prodigal Son is very afraid of masters of special abilities, and he will try to avoid them unless necessary.

 There will be no good outcome if you confront this kind of person head-on.

 Unexpectedly, I met two people at the card table today.

 Judging from the situation just now, the man named David next to him had very powerful special powers and easily defeated the one-eyed dragon.

 What if you use the same trick on yourself?

 Do you want him to dance and strip off at the card table?

It is true that he is a prodigal, but he is not promiscuous to the extent of being promiscuous in public and in full view of the public. After thinking about it, Gundam made a difficult decision.

 “I abstain!”

 Pushing the chips piled up in front of him, he directly chose to admit defeat, regained his smile, and made a 'congratulations' gesture to David.

“In this case, I will be the only one at the table. Should I go to another table?”

With the help of the waiter, David took Cheng Leer and the chips to the next table.

 Compared to the light-speed ending on his side, the battle situation here is much more stalemate.

Although one of Haishan and Chen Xiaodao relies on high technology to cheat and the other relies on thousands of skills to deal with various situations, in general, they are still 'playing cards' normally.

 David's side is different. Dajun changes and exchanges cards in various ways. Not only can he easily let himself have good cards, but he can also let the dealer who dealt the cards give the target a bad hand.

 You can even use some small illusions to influence people's judgment, making them think that they have an advantage, and then place heavy bets, follow bets, or even stud.

This made the poker game over there progress very quickly, and it was completely over after just a few games.

In the eyes of onlookers, the entire card game is a bit inexplicable. Most people even suspect that the people at this table are just joking and are not prepared to play cards seriously at all.

 It's much more normal here. It seems like these people are really playing cards.

But after David joined, the rhythm instantly accelerated a lot. Although David did not use special functions, small tricks such as changing cards and changing cards were not difficult for him.

After a few rounds, although the chips in front of David did not increase much, he had successfully cleared out several pure gimmicks and background boards.

Haishan rubbed his ears and looked at the two remaining opponents, his face became extremely serious.

 He began to think about whether he had to use some means to seriously deal with the two people in front of him?

He would not regard David as an irrelevant passerby. It was impossible for a passerby who was just joining in the fun to deal with the army and the prodigal Gundam so quickly.

Although he didn't know that David and Chen Xiaodao had joined forces, he could also sense that it would not be good for him to remain in a stalemate.

 So, he planned to resolve the battle quickly and quickly, and then run away with the money he had collected - he had already arranged a ship to take over, and if everything went well, the cash he had collected during this period was being loaded on the ship.

 He would not wait until the cruise ship arrived in Japan before considering escaping. That would be too passive. And if he stays on the cruise ship for one second after the game, he will be at greater risk.

 So from the very beginning, he arranged for himself an escape vessel.

Haishan, who felt that everything was under control, began to not care so much about the outcome of the card game in front of him.

With this idea in mind, and with David helping Chen Xiaodao cheat, Haishan quickly lost all the chips in his hand, without any suspense.

Originally, he wanted to show off his grace and say congratulations to Chen Xiaodao who had won all his chips. At the same time, he wanted to provoke Chen Xiaodao and David to continue playing at the card table for a while.

 The period of time during which the two of them were dueling could be used by him to escape.

When these two decided the winner and won the charity poker competition, they found out that the organizer and all the money used for charity were gone. I wonder what their reaction would be?

Thinking of the happy place, Haishan smiles brightly.

However, the next second, not-so-pleasant news came from the earphones—the men who were carrying and loading the money were attacked. Haishan's face changed drastically. Haishan couldn't ask loudly what happened. He was about to find a reason to leave and see what happened, but he was stopped by David.

"Mr. Haishan, there is no need to leave in a hurry. Your ship will not abandon you and leave early."

Haishan's eyes became sharp and he stared at David: “I don't quite understand what Mr. Glamorgan meant.”

"You know." David threw away the cards in his hand and directly announced to the dealer that he would abstain from voting: "But now, as the organizer, Mr. Haishan, can he announce the final winner?"

"Of course, but please forgive me for going to the bathroom first." After saying that, without waiting for David and Chen Xiaodao to "retain", he winked at the security personnel behind him and prepared to leave directly.

Several of his men had just taken out their guns, but before they could shock the whole crowd, a series of gunshots suddenly rang out, and these men fell to the ground one after another.

Looking at the marks on their foreheads and hearts, it is difficult to expect them to continue to stick to their posts to protect themselves.

 The sudden sound of gunshots caused some confusion, but fortunately Cheng Xiaodong held up his ID and shouted: "Hong Kong Royal Police." The situation was stabilized.

Although the Fuki Maru is strictly a Japanese cruise ship, when sailing on the high seas, it is based on the principle of ownership of the place of registration, and the Hong Kong police have no law enforcement rights on the ship.

But the tourists on the boat are basically from Xiangjiang. Even those who are not locals in Xiangjiang have lived in Xiangjiang for a period of time and have more recognition of the Xiangjiang police.

When Cheng Xiaodong revealed his identity as a police officer, the chaos immediately stopped. These people followed Cheng Xiaodong's instructions and retreated to a safe distance, and then stretched their necks to watch the excitement.

When Cheng Xiaodong took control of the situation, Long Jiu also took out his pistol and killed several of Haishan's men who were hiding around. Gundam, who was originally among the crowd watching the fun, found someone in the crowd with a gun and wanted to make a sneak attack, so he also helped a little bit. , using playing cards to knock off the opponent's weapon.

Haishan's men in the competition venue were quickly cleared away. Except for the one whose hand was injured by Gundam using a playing card, everyone else was shot to death.

Looking at this situation, Haishan could only raise his hands and declare surrender.

Soon, Eagle Jack and Long Wu rushed over. When Jack saw Chen Xiaodao, he said directly: "The matter is settled. I did exactly what you asked. Remember to transfer the money as soon as possible!"

"no problem."

Feiying has been keeping an eye on the cash in the casino for the past few days. He found the escape route that Haishan had arranged for him in advance, and then took advantage of the situation to create some chaos, giving Long Wu an opportunity to quickly deal with this group of people.

His task is not difficult, so the reward is not high, but it is still an income. Feiying made a small profit by the way.

After Long Wu saw that Haishan was under control and that no one was injured, he simply told Chen Xiaodao about the situation: "Some banknotes were damaged due to the crossfire, but the loss was not serious."

 “Oh, it's a small loss, it doesn't matter.”

 Long Wu nodded. In fact, this loss was deliberately caused to facilitate the subsequent payment of David and Jack's remuneration.

  The final finishing work is the responsibility of Longjiu.

Logically speaking, the Fuki Maru is about to arrive in Japan, and it is completely possible to control this group of people and hand them over to the Japanese police after arriving at the port.

 But in that case, the Xiangjiang Political Department would be busy in vain.

So the final solution was for the Fuki Maru to stay where it was, and Xiangjiang came to take away all the people, evidence and a series of related things.

If it had not been found out in advance that the Fuki Maru and the company behind it were not directly involved in the Haishan incident, but that some of the staff had been bribed, they would have wanted to pack the entire ship back to Hong Kong.

 Because of this incident, the Fuki Maru arrived in Japan later than expected.

At the same time, because of this incident, the Fuki Maru's scheduled round-trip voyage could no longer continue—it was another disguised fraud, a shootout, and dead people. The tourists were no longer in the mood to continue playing on the Fuki Maru.

 The travel company has a lot to deal with. The first thing is to send the wealthy guests on the ship back to Xiangjiang.

"The originally scheduled voyage of nearly half a month was shortened by half." Cheng Leer didn't feel it was a pity. The biggest goal of this trip to sea had been achieved, not to mention making a small profit along the way.

As for the cost of the trip, the travel company has promised to provide a full refund, and will gradually return the cost of ferry tickets and accommodation to all guests.

"It's a pity that I took half a month's leave..." Cheng Xiaoxi felt it was a pity. She took a long leave specially, and now there are still many days that have not been used. She doesn't know what to do in the next few days to pass the vacation?

At this moment, she suddenly thought, could she go to the so-called Winter City before the vacation was over?

He and Cheng Leer looked at each other, and the good sisters immediately understood that the other party was thinking of the same thing as themselves.

But when he thought about going to Winter City, Cheng Leer suddenly felt a little nervous. He didn't know what kind of place it would be.

Also, do you want to follow David to settle in Winter City? Can I adapt to life there? Questions popped up one after another, and she felt confused about the unknown future.
