Chapter 196: Wellington's Investigation

When Chris returned to the bedroom, he sat down at his desk and wrote a sentence on a blank piece of paper:

"Did you sense any other 'gamblers' in the 'Berta Entertainment Casino'?

After that, Chris went back to bed, ready to rest and sleep, after all, with last night's watch, he hadn't rested for two days.

Coupled with today's day-long dice guessing competition, not only did it consume a lot of spirituality, but this body was already very tired.

In the bedroom next to him, Bonnie, a little girl in pink pajamas, was lying on the bed, smiling and frowning.

Thinking of Chris's intimate actions to himself today, Bonnie's beautiful face turned red again.

"Why do you always think 'Chris' is a little weird today?" muttered Bonnie, "I don't know what is strange, but I always feel that the person in front of me is not the real him." ”

I have to say that a girl's sixth sense is really scary, especially the opposite sex who cares about herself.

The soul in Chris's body swore that no one would be able to see his abnormality, but Bonnie still subconsciously noticed a trace of abnormality, but she felt that it was the reason for her nervousness, and she didn't think much about it.

In Bert's bedroom next door, Bert, dressed in sky-blue pajamas, is still experimenting with his ritual magic.

Although this ritual magic has failed more than a dozen times in a row, after each failure, Bert will sum up the experience of failure and try to change the steps and spiritual materials of the ritual.

Also in Paul's room on the third floor, Paul, who has a shy and quiet personality, is looking at a book with relish, but the name on the pink cover is more eye-catching and explicit, and the big words on it are:

The Vampire and Juliet

And in the author's column it is written:

Great poet and statesman - Russell Staff.

In James's bedroom on the second floor, the captain of the macho appearance was thundering and snoring in bed at this time.

In the bedroom of Sister Wayne's head, Wayne was calculating the increase in the funds of the extraordinary team in the past few weeks, and when she saw the final result, the corners of Wayne's mouth couldn't help but smile, and muttered:

"I didn't expect that since Chris and the others joined our team, our financial luck has started to improve. ”

After all, from the case of the rose perfume, Madame Hibel paid 60 gold pounds.

A few days ago, James had informed them that they had been rewarded with an additional 100 gold pounds for solving the case of the missing traveler in the small town of Solari and recovering a seal.

Today, with the joint efforts of several of them, they won another 200 gold pounds.

Just when Wayne was in the air, Elton next door was grabbing his hair and sighed:

"Even Chris's kid was so lucky, how did I get a 36 today. It's really hateful, it seems that for this period of time in the future, I am afraid that the cynicism of Wayne's fake woman will be indispensable. ”

In Jeffrey's bedroom, Jeffrey was making silver charms with a blank face, and their team's consumption of charms had increased a lot recently, and he also needed to exchange some more with Rowan.

At 6 o'clock the next morning, Chris opened his eyes and saw that he was already dressed, but unlike yesterday, Chris still had a men's bow tied around his neckline today.

Chris casually removed his black bow tie, walked to the desk, and sure enough, behind the sentence he wrote yesterday, he saw:

"I didn't perceive the same way in the casino yesterday, of course, I can't rule out that there was no 'gambler' yesterday, maybe because his partner didn't score well, so he didn't get the final prize, you can check the information about the second and third place winners later.

"As for whether my cheating will be seen by the casino, I used the basic skills of 'gambler', and I didn't take the initiative to use extraordinary abilities, so no one can see my cheating methods only if there is no extraordinary person above sequence 6 at that time. ”

After seeing the answer, Chris was relieved, although he knew that cheating was shameful, but Chris was not a pedantic person, especially the money in this kind of gambling house, there was really no psychological pressure to pit.

Because yesterday, the host of the "Berta Entertainment Casino" explained that in order to allow more people to get rewards, each group composed of single or multiple people can only get a reward once in the past three days, so they can't also participate in this game competition today to get bonuses.

Although there were two other gambling houses in Federenburg at this time, this kind of game was also played, but because of the distance, Elton did not know the news.

It wasn't until Saturday morning the third day that they learned the news.

Because the gambling house in the North District was only open to the nobles of Federenburg, Wayne and his party hurried to the gambling house in the Eastern District.

Although they didn't participate in the game early in the morning, Wayne and they still won the second prize of 100 gold pounds.

No way, Wayne, Paul and Chris are too strong to allow the final score to be low.

So this evening, Wayne went back to the backstage of the casino again and received the £100 runner-up prize.

And in the City Lord's Mansion in the North District, the Earl of Wellington, who had just returned not long ago, also saw a familiar name on the note handed by Brant again.

"Go get Zach over. Wellington stroked his mustache and instructed his valet Brant.

"Okay, master. After Brant respectfully returned, he went to the small red-painted building not far away and informed the dark guard Zack.

The night before, Wellington had asked him to write down all the people who had won the prizes on it, and all but the official extraordinaries had to look into the information of the others to see if there were any contestants who might be 'gamblers'.

After about five minutes, Zach walked up to Wellington's study again, bowed, and asked:

"My lord, what do you command?"

"How's it going to get you to check the day before yesterday?" asked Wellington after taking a sip of the tea on the table.

Zach immediately replied:

"It has been found out, the second of them, the group represented by Cowper Shelley, should be the official Extraordinary of the Constant Light Burning Sun Church, and the third group represented by Sophie Cook should have the existence of wild extraordinary people, and at present, it can only be found that Sophie Cook is a wild extraordinary person.

"As for the two gambling houses in the East and North Districts, it should be a similar scene, and several teams of winners have official and wild extraordinary figures in them. ”

"What about those people from yesterday, did you find anything?" Wellington put down the ceramic teacup in his hand, his fingers tapping on the mahogany tabletop.

"Yesterday's people were in a similar situation, the nine teams of the winners were a mixture of officials and wild extraordinaires, and there were very few winning groups that were purely ordinary people. ”

Wellington was silent for a minute, and then handed the note to the current Zach, which listed the winners of the South, East, and North Districts.

Zach saw Chris's name again in it, and said with a wry smile:

"My lord, I didn't expect this 'punisher' to participate in the gambling competition in the Eastern District for the second time, and they really took advantage of the loopholes in the rules. ”

Yes, although the host of the original "Berta Entertainment Casino" explained that he had participated in the game many times, but after all, the three major casinos were not one, so there was no substantive connection between them, so Wayne hurriedly brought Chris and others to participate in the game after knowing the news.

Unexpectedly, from noon, he finally got the second place result and got a reward of 100 gold pounds.

Wellington looked at Zack, and a few days ago he sent another secret guard to spy on Zack, but he didn't get anything out of the ordinary, and he didn't see the old friend of the "Gates of Hades" that Zack said.

So he recalled the secret guard and stopped monitoring Zack, Wellington still trusted Zack very much, but the news reported by Zack that day was really heavy, so he wanted to send someone to monitor and confirm.

I only heard Wellington say helplessly:

"At a glance from yesterday's situation, Mr. Gabriel, the 'Sun Priest', did not find a 'gambler' in the three major gambling houses, and there are many extraordinary people in the path of 'scholars', 'readers' and 'Qiguang people'. ”

The implication is obvious, that is, there are indeed many people from the two major churches participating in the competition, but his target "gambler" has not appeared.

If you can't find a "gambler", the event is meaningless and a waste of time and energy.

Zach spoke:

"My lord, do you want to check the names on this list today?"

"Let's check, although Mr. Gabriel says that there is no such thing as a 'gambler', there may still be relevant clues. Wellington said with some reluctance to give up.

"Your Excellency, if you are to visit the Archbishop of the Constant Sun Church again tomorrow, Mr. Reggie Longman, perhaps he will have some good advice. Zach suggested.

Wellington pondered for a few seconds, and then said helplessly:

"It seems that this is the only way to go, and tomorrow morning I will visit the archbishops of the two churches. Okay, it's already so late, so you can go back and rest. ”

After Zach nodded respectfully, he strode out of the study, and Brant, who was outside the door, also walked in through the door and walked in front of his master, waiting for instructions from the Earl of Wellington.

"You go and prepare two prayer posts, arrange the time, remember that tomorrow morning we will go to the Archbishop of the Constant Sun Church first, and then to the Archbishop of the Church of the God of Machines and Wisdom. ”

After listening respectfully to Wellington's instructions, Brant picked up the note on the table, burned it in the kerosene lamp, and hurried out of the study.
