Chapter 0010: Borrowing Money

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

The profit from the casino for one night is only around 300 to 500 yuan. In less than half an hour, it was all lost. The most skilled gambler, Fast Hand Liu, took the stage, but ultimately he also could not prevail and was defeated.

A common ailment among many women

Winning so much money, Gong Hui's eyelids are twitching. If during the grouping, Luo Yao were to compete with her in gambling skills, she would definitely lose terribly!

I have good hearing. When you came down from upstairs to eat just now, did you happen to make a slight bow at the corner of the stairs?" Luo Yao chuckled.

So you just know when to stop

Seeing the other party greet him according to the rules of the martial world, Luo Yao chuckled and said: "You are being too polite. My sister and I are merely passing through your esteemed place and are a bit short on funds, just borrowing a little travel money."

... ...

Well

That's good. Luo Yao didn't pay much attention; even if the higher-ups knew, he wasn't afraid. During the body search, those people didn't specify what they were doing, nor were there any rules prohibiting hiding money or the like

"Casino, you actually brought me to a casino?" Moments later, Gong Hui arrived at the entrance of a casino with Luo Yao, and she was truly taken aback

Is it really that impressive

"Come on, follow me to a place first." Luo Yao chuckled, realizing that aside from being a bit aloof, Gong Hui was actually quite nice, though her mind seemed a little muddled.

Liu Jinbao, Gu Yuan, and Man Cang are in a group.

Five people are divided into two groups

"Guess what, do you think I am easy to deceive?" Gong Hui's expression immediately changed; she could detect the "perfunctory" tone in Luo Yao's words, which she found very displeasing

Do not mistakenly think that you are being mischievous

In this special training session, there will definitely be firearms training. Since you have never even touched a gun, you will surely fall behind in the training progress. Otherwise, shall I teach you

Is that so? Gong Hui expressed doubt

I do not know whether it is good or bad, but my mood at this moment is one of joy

An hour later, the casino manager Wei Laosan sat opposite Luo Yao, constantly wiping his sweat. He had no idea where this man and woman, who seemed to be formidable figures, had emerged from.

The money in front of Luo Yao has already reached nearly 2,000 yuan

I am guessing. Luo Yao did not know how to explain; he could say that he heard it, but there was also an element of speculation involved.

"No, I was really just guessing, but it wasn't a random guess either." Luo Yao did not want to get too close to Gong Hui, nor did he want her to misunderstand, so he explained, "Actually, when I got off the boat this morning, I noticed that your complexion wasn't very good, and you were also holding your stomach. Then, you spoke very little along the way. After we arrived at the inn, you went straight to your room and locked yourself in. When I called you for lunch, not only did you not open the door for me, but I also heard your voice through the door, which sounded weak. I know that women have their monthly periods, so I guessed that it might be because of that."

"Xiao Hui, let's go," Luo Yao nodded and turned to call out to Gong Hui.

"Did you not see how bulging that woman's waist is? If we forcefully detain her, she might act immediately, and we don't even know if the ones we are dining with can be kept safe." Wei Laosan shot a glance at his subordinate, "What is this amount of money worth? We can earn it back in a few nights. If life is lost, can you spend the money?"

"Can you really calculate this?" Gong Hui said in astonishment

Uh

"Hehe, what else can I do?" Luo Yao explained, "I can't do anything else, just pull off a big score to settle our travel expenses all at once"

What are your thoughts on our group's task

Luo Yao and Gong Hui are of similar age, walking together like a couple. As they walked, Gong Hui suddenly moved a little closer.

"Can you do it?" Gong Hui expressed her doubts

Of course, the scale and the level cannot be compared

What are we doing here

You really don't know how to shoot a gun

It turns out to be a matter of urgent assistance, why not speak plainly, I, Wei Laosan, am also a hospitable person, as long as one is willing to make friends, I welcome all who come. Wei Laosan let out a sigh of relief, as long as they are not here to cause trouble

So you were already prepared

"Then I will leave it to my friend, Wei Laosan." Wei Laosan was perceptive; although these two appeared young, the woman kept her hand resting on her waist, and her gaze never left him. He stood up and cupped his fists in salute

Give it a try

"Go back and wait for them, they should be back soon." Having won some money, Luo Yao was in a good mood, humming a little tune as he walked back to the inn.

Watching Luo Yao and Gong Hui leave without taking any action, Old Wei San remained still, but his subordinates could not contain their frustration, saying: "Third Master, are we just going to let those two go like this?"

Luo Yao nodded and said, "I wouldn't dare to come here without you."

After a simple and easy disguise, Luo Yao appeared with a small mustache, looking considerably more mature

I, hehe, cannot carry burdens on my shoulders, nor can I lift with my hands, so what opinions can I have? I will just listen to everyone.

"Luo Yao, how did you know about that?" Just now, Liu Jinbao and the other two were here, and Gong Hui didn't dare to ask, as this is a matter of personal privacy. She is very concerned about it being known by others.

I do not want it, the money is what you won back, I did nothing at all

Without you, I wouldn't dare to win so much from them. I just calculated that the money we won should be equivalent to their income for about five days

To speak frankly, however, we cannot be completely honest about this amount of money; at least half of it must be kept aside. Also, this money should be kept with you for the time being, as I will be sharing a room with them

"Otherwise, you can try to catch up. Once you step out of this door, whether you live or die has nothing to do with me..." Wei Laosan said with a cold smile

Although I have only been a police officer for a few days, I have fled from Jinling to Xiakou, not knowing how many checkpoints I have passed. If I do not come up with some way, the money on me would have long been searched away by those people

Aside from losing a few rounds at the beginning, I then swept through with great momentum

"They didn't find anything on you; that's their own incompetence. What does it have to do with you?" Gong Hui snorted coldly, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone."

Could you please provide your font size

Indeed, I am a sharpshooter. Many have wanted me to teach them, but I have not done so!" Gong Hui proudly declared, raising her head.

"That is not correct; these cannot support that assumption. What if I caught a cold while on the ship?" After listening, Gong Hui seemed to ponder for a moment and then spoke again

Luo Yao is in a group with Gong Hui

How should we say it when we go back later

Where did you get the money to buy those things for me

... ...

Luo Yao chuckled lightly, not paying it any mind

Gong Hui understood: "So you think of me as your bodyguard?"

Wealth should not be displayed openly, and even those close to us should be treated with caution

Ah, you..." Gong Hui's face instantly flushed with a rosy hue.

Where are we going now? As they walked, Gong Hui suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to ask Liu Jinbao for the location of the police station

Can he really say that? His relationship with Gong Hui is merely ordinary.

"Where are we going now?" Gong Hui asked.

Well, this loss is roughly within the psychological range that the other party can bear, and since the gambler won money but cannot take it away, the casino's reputation would be damaged. To lose one's reputation over such a small amount of money, what do you think the owner of the casino would choose to do

"Isn't it because of you? Otherwise, at most, I would just go in to make a little pocket money." Luo Yao chuckled and continued to walk forward

After leaving Xiakou, Luo Yao felt that his mindset seemed to have undergone some kind of change, different from his former self, perhaps due to the influence of the fusion with his second soul

"Well, I really haven't. I have never even touched a gun in my life." Luo Yao was not lying; there was indeed no memory of ever having touched a gun in the first soul's recollection.

"Naturally, it was a loan." Luo Yao chuckled.

"Miss Gong, will you take half of this money?" With no one following behind, Luo Yaocai finally felt relieved, stopped, and spoke to Gong Hui

We are not accustomed to owing others favors; what we earn ourselves is more gratifying to spend. Luo Yao also knew when to stop, packing away the silver dollars and banknotes on the table

Luo Yao felt somewhat helpless; could it be that he detected a hint of "blood" in the air outside the door, heard her talking to herself, and then inferred that Gong Huisheng was on her menstrual period

Aren't you afraid they will take action after you leave the casino

The lights are bright and the wine flows, with the songs of warblers and the dances of swallows.

"Alright, then it's settled. " Luo Yao nodded, thinking that having someone to teach him was not a bad idea. He agreed, "When we get to Xiangcheng, you can teach me how to shoot."

If you are infected with a cold, your breathing and wheezing will be different; this can be discerned with careful listening, " Luo Yao said in a moment of inspiration.

... ...

Investigate the backgrounds of these two individuals

"You teach me?" Luo Yao was taken aback.

I study mathematics, and with just a glance at this small casino, by comparing the take, I can estimate their daily profits said Luo Yao with a hint of pride

This is called being prepared for any eventuality. Luo Yaoshan said with an awkward smile, However, you must keep this a secret for me, otherwise, if the superiors find out, I will be in trouble

"Rest assured, I will take care of this money for you," Gong Hui said earnestly

Although Yueyang City cannot compare to large cities like Xiakou, it does have a nightlife, and there are entertainment venues such as dance halls on the most bustling streets in the city
