Chapter 177: Gambling Game Competition
Fourteen years ago, he asked Benson to send a few guards to protect his mistress and live with Sally in a small courtyard, until two years ago, when he sent Zack to investigate the case, he learned that Sally had an affair with a guard named Ryan fourteen years ago.
Then he learned from the Archbishop of the Constant Sun, Mr. Craigie Longman, that one of his two children, the youngest son Led, and the youngest daughter, Elena, was not of his own blood!
Now he learns that Sally has something to do with what happened twelve years ago!
However, the most powerful person, the Earl of Wellington quickly suppressed the true emotions in his heart, his expression regained his calm, looked at Zach and asked:
"Is she also extraordinary?"
Zach knew who "she" was here, and his tone affirmed:
"Yes, and most likely an extraordinary person of the 'witch' path. ”
"'Witches'?" Wellington recalled, recalling his little occult knowledge, as if he had heard Sophia mention it before.
Looking at Zach in front of him, Wellington asked:
"How much do you know about 'witches'?"
Zach recalled the important information he had seen from the Constant Light Sun Church and replied:
"As far as I know, sequence 8 of the 'witch' path is called 'Lady of Pleasure', and I heard that they are good at seduction, and they are good at bringing unforgettable joy to the opposite sex in love. ”
Looking at the sudden horror in Wellington's eyes, Zach continued:
"And Sequence 6 of the 'Witch' path is called 'Calamity Witch', who loves to spread diseases and plagues, so it is not tolerated by all churches and nations!"
Finally, Wellington remembered what Sophia had said after she got married, that every "witch" is very dangerous and will bring unimaginable disasters to the city!
Sophia, did you already know that? Are you warning me tactfully?
Thinking of that generous, decent, beautiful and graceful wife, Wellington suddenly regretted why he didn't notice it at the time, why he provoked Sally.
Nineteen years ago, when he followed his father to Atlanta, he met this famous lady, and the two fell in love at first sight.
But Sophia's father was not optimistic about himself and decisively rejected his marriage proposal. Later, on the lonely way back, he actually saw Sophia who was chasing all the way.
The two had a grand wedding in Federenburg, which was not until later...... I know who she is extraordinary.
Because of his father's influence, he has been particularly reluctant to the extraordinary since he was a child, and since then, he seems to have changed his mind, and then, he met a girl from a civilian background, Sally.
She has a face that is more beautiful than Sophia, a more graceful body, and an extremely seductive attraction.
And just like that, he fell. And after Sophia's death, he ignored everyone's discussions, married his mistress Sally, and also exposed his illegitimate son Rowan to the eyes of the people.
In the years that followed, the lord and the new lord's wife were not only ridiculed privately by the nobles of Federenburg, but also became the talk of the people after dinner.
Unexpectedly, Sally, who she treats wholeheartedly, this woman, may be the murderer of her wife and son!
Thinking of this, Wellington's anger rose again, but a smile appeared on his face, and he looked at Zach who bowed his head in front of him and said:
"You're doing a good job, and then you're going to look for evidence of this, and report back to me as soon as you get the news. ”
Then he went to the door, and commanded Brant, who was guarding the door:
"In a moment you give Zach five hundred gold pounds, and remember not to attract attention, especially Madame and the butler. ”
After hearing his master's command, Brandt nodded in response and immediately left the place with Zack.
After watching his valet and guard Zack leave, Wellington snapped his fingers.
I saw a man dressed in black appear next to Wellington out of thin air.
"For the next few days, you follow Zach to see who he comes into contact with, and remember to be careful not to be found by him. ”
The man in black didn't see any response, and disappeared in an instant. He's obviously an extraordinary being, but he doesn't know what the sequence path is.
As the lord of a city, how could the Earl of Wellington lack the covert protection of the extraordinary.
From the conversation just now, it can be seen that on the surface, the servant Brant is guarding the door, but how can this prevent extraordinary people with different abilities, and the extraordinary people in the secret are the key to Wellington's reassuring conversation.
"As for Sally, it looks like you'll have to let Mr. Craigie Longman do it. Wellington stood still, his eyes darkened.
On Tuesday morning, the Extraordinary Squad gathered in their offices on the second floor behind the police station.
A few days ago, Elton, Jeffrey, and Paul solved a transcendent case together, so today James reassigned the two cases in his hands.
"Did you hear that?" said Elton, looking at the others, "the 'Berta Entertainment Casino' on the Southern Side has a large game tournament that includes playing cards, a sieve, and some puzzle games. ”
Wayne raised his eyebrows, and said as white as Elton:
"What's there to focus on this kind of gambling game? We're very busy. ”
But Elton's next words made everyone including James breathe.
"I heard that the winner of the competition can get 200 gold pounds, the second runner-up can get 100 gold pounds, and the third place can get 50 gold pounds. ”
200 gold pounds! Chris was shocked in his heart, if 1 gold pound is equivalent to more than 1,000 yuan, this is equivalent to more than 200,000 yuan in his previous life!
"This ...... That's too much, isn't it? Wayne stammered a little.
Bert, who was sitting in a chair sorting out the file, also looked up, looked at Elton with blue eyes, and asked:
"Where did you hear that? Is this accurate?"
Elton sneered and said:
"I heard the news from a friend in the church, and it started three days later, and the game lasted three days in a row. Because I had been there with him before, he came to tell me as soon as he got the news. ”
"No wonder you borrowed money from us for a while. Wayne scoffed, "I finally know what you're doing." ”
"It's not that you don't want to go with me, otherwise with your ability, you would have returned to your roots a long time ago. Elton exclaimed.
Wayne was so angry that she wanted to throw the teacup in her hand directly at Elton, but after thinking about it, her ability was indeed ......
Then Wayne looked at James and said tentatively:
"Boss, why don't we try our luck at the 'Berta Entertainment Casino'. ”
She has always been a fan of money, and she doesn't want to let go of this opportunity easily.
