Chapter 145 - Dior's Heaven and Hell 06

Dio came to the gambling house. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info is a simple gambling house on the outside, but the internal facilities are quite complete. Dio gave a cursory punch, but couldn't find a reason why Amami Ken had been frequenting this place lately.

Yujian Jian is not easy to gamble, at least after she began to attract the attention of the Ming Empire, she only came to the gambling house at this time. Believing that she must have come here for some other reason, Dio said hello to the Ming Empire Catchers in the gambling house, and then stood with the patrolmen, carefully observing the entire gambling house.

A casino is a casino, and no matter how fresh it is, it will never become fresh and refined. In a space filled with the smell of copper, everyone's purpose is clear at a glance, and it is very easy to find something slightly different in this kind of place. And the most unique existence of the whole casino is to stay away from all kinds of equipment, sit alone in the corner of the casino, sit cross-legged on the trestle like a compartment, and condescendingly look down on the "monster" of the entire casino.

She has a distinctive appearance, with animal ears and a long tail, and is dressed in a green shirt with intricate patterns and a feather coat embroidered with blue patterned edges, such an outfit that even some noble children of the Ming Empire will not wear on a regular basis, the most conspicuous thing is her long pale blonde hair, which shines like a morning star in the smoky gambling house. She also noticed Dior, but her eyes only flashed over her. Perhaps, it is not uncommon for foreigners to appear in this gambling house.

"Who's that person?" Dior whispered to the catcher beside him.

"My lord, don't you know, she is the 'signboard' of this gambling house, and the reason why there are so many people in this gambling house is precisely because of this monster," Catcher Kuai also lowered his voice and said, "Not long after this gambling house opened, this monster came to this gambling house as a plaster, and then I don't know if she took over this gambling house, so she let out a word and said, 'As long as you can win me, this gambling house will be yours'." During that month, there was a steady stream of people coming to the gambling house, but all of them lost to her. If you think about it, you can understand that woman is a monster, and it is impossible for us ordinary people to know what is going on. ”

"You can see it thoroughly," Dior nodded, "and what is she doing in the gambling house now? I don't think there will be 'people' to bet against her." ”

"This, it's strange to say, many people who have gambled with her once, many of them have come to her again and again to gamble, just like they are enchanted," Catch Kuai's face was a little strange, "Some people say that she is a legendary fox demon who can confuse people's hearts, so those people come to gamble with her again and again like fools, until they go bankrupt." ”

It's a lot of fun. Dio suddenly remembered Zi Buyu, although that guy didn't know what kind of monster it was, but Daria had said that she didn't know why she had a good impression of Zi Buyu, maybe it was this wonderful power that affected those people. The best way to test this conjecture is to reach out to the other person... Thinking of this, Dior shook his head.

"Did Yumijian bet with her?"

"Yes, just yesterday afternoon," Catcher nodded, "she seems to have lost or something, anyway she said she would come back in a few days... Uh, I remember the adults were there?"

The corners of Dior's mouth twitched, she didn't even notice that there was the fox demon in this gambling house.

Wait a minute... Didn't notice?

A light suddenly appeared in her eyes, and this time she slowly and carefully watched everyone in the gambling house. Only then did she discover some blind spots, this gambling house had a lot of Western faces before, and she really didn't look too special. But why hadn't she noticed before? she frowned, and thought about it again. Right... The Qinglou of the Ming Empire also often used hallucinogenic spices, if only in small amounts, it would not cause damage to the human body, but would only make people's attention less concentrated. And the one who can maintain the victory at the table must be the most sober.

"If there is anything related to this monster, immediately contact Wang Zhutou and ask him to contact me, and I will leave for a while. ”

After Dior finished speaking, he immediately left the gambling house. She had an idea that might be able to solve all this in one fell swoop.

She immediately ran to the alley where the misty workshop was located, only to find that the workshop was closed today. Dio didn't knock on the door, she stood in the doorway, waited for a while, closed her eyes, and listened to the sounds around her. There were at least two people in the room, and Dior's eyebrows twitched, and he immediately stepped forward, knocked on the door, and then pushed the door open and walked in without waiting for anyone to open the door.

"Welcome to the Humble House, if I'm not mistaken, we only met yesterday," Wakakibai glanced at Dior, "Do you have anything to do with the workshop today? ”

Dio looked around, but saw no other figure, so he spoke:

"I want to see her. ”

"This is really difficult for a strong man," Wakaki rubbed his chin in embarrassment, "If I can let her come out to see you by herself, I may be able to agree to your request." ”

"Don't say such ambiguous words, she's here, right?" Dior took his pipe and put it in his mouth, looking around the workshop, "Of course, if it doesn't matter what happens to the loss to that fox, I'll leave now." ”

After saying that, Dio was about to turn around and leave, but when she turned around, she saw Yumi Sword standing at the door. Dio raised an eyebrow, exhaled a puff of smoke, and waited on tiptoe.

“... Who are you?"

"You can call me Dior," Dior smiled 'gently', "It seems that I guessed correctly, you will live here, right?"

“......”

"If you don't answer, I'll take you by default," Dior turned his face sideways, his fingers clenching his pipe, "after all, there are only a few people you know, and there are only a few places you can go, so it's easy to find you." If it were normal, I wouldn't have been able to find out where a freewheeling guy is, but when a person has a strong sense of purpose, behavior becomes predictable. ”

"What the hell are you here for?"

"I'm here for you, I've already said it," Dio raised his pipe and pointed it at her nose, "You've been hunched over and standing vigilantly, with your right foot back, ready to break through the door." It seems that you are a cautious person, your clothes are quite fancy on the surface, but judging by the material of your clothes, you are not rich, the cuffs are badly worn, and there are some stains that are difficult to wash off, which means that you have to do your daily life yourself, and you still have a lot of physical work to do, although you are a "monster", you are just as depressed as an ordinary person, and I can't think of a reason now. But even so, you are still wearing such fancy clothes, and you have a lot of vanity, so you must not be reconciled to losing to that fox. You don't have anyone to talk to, so you come back to one of your few "acquaintances" to discuss the matter. So I came here and found you. ”

"You've got a lot of words," Amami said impatiently, "and then?"

"That's the point," Dior narrowed his eyes, "I can help you deal with that fox, of course I need your help." The price is also very simple, Zhu Yuanfang, the dog emperor, asked me to solve you, but I don't think I have the ability, and now I need you to solve your own problems by yourself. ”

"Heh," Yumi Jian straightened up and looked at Dio for a moment as if he had lifted his guard, and said, "Of course you can, but... I also have one more request. You also have to do one thing for me, originally I stayed here for that thing, and after that I did, I would naturally leave this country. ”

"I'll do my best. Dio said perfunctorily.

"Well, deal. ”

"It was a pleasure to work with. ”

-Now--

"You didn't use any 'monster' powers in your gamble," Dio said lightly, "and you're just using hallucinogens to pull off some simple magic tricks to get to this point." You didn't think that your clothes are so gorgeous, so gorgeous that people can't help but think that you are a woman from a noble family, but if you don't wear a crown hat, there is actually another kind of person who will have your outfit. ”

Su Xiang trembled, she looked at Dior with frightened eyes, as if she was very taboo about the words that Dior would say next. Dio grinned, leaned down and whispered in her ear:

“... That's a prostitute, I'm right? The hallucinogens are the incense that is often used in the green houses, and it's a misfortune, I happen to know about it. ”

"You... Who the hell is it?"

The fox looked at Dio differently and asked in a trembling voice.

"Is it important?" said Dior, lighting his pipe.

But just as she raised her pipe, the fox demon in front of her suddenly burst into laughter, and Dio and Yumi Jian were stunned together, neither of them understood why the fox in front of her was laughing so happily.

"That's really good, your name is Dio Connor, right? I heard that catcher say quickly," Su Xiang wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and said with a smile, "How is it, my acting skills." Ah, it's really fun, it's been a long time since I've met someone like you. Yes, you're exactly right! Congratulations!But ~yes~, don't forget our bet at the beginning. ”

"Huh?" Dior frowned.

"I didn't lose anything," Su Xiang stuck out his tongue mischievously, "Whether I win or lose, I will tell Yujian what she wants to know, and because she has already lost to me, she has to do one thing for me." And what about you, Dior, you used 100,000 taels as a bet, although in the end you and Yumi Sword were tied to avoid losses, but you didn't get anything. The so-called gambling is just that. ”

“......”

"What's more, didn't you promise Yu Jianjian to help her do something?" Su Xiang smiled slightly, "That's what I asked her to say, that is..."

“... Don't you care that your identity as a prostitute is revealed?" Dior's hand trembled.

"Why do you care?" Su Xiang shook his head and said, "I'm just a geisha, and I have the aura of this 'monster', and those guys don't dare to come to me for trouble." Dior, this time, it's my complete victory. ”

Why is this happening... Dio glanced at Yujian in amazement, only to see her helplessly looking at herself.

It seems that she has been trapped by similar methods?

"Okay, let's introduce myself seriously," Su Xiang jumped up and clapped his hands lively, "My name is "Su Xiang", Su from Suzhou, Xiang from Xiangshan, his hobby is gambling, his profession is a gambler, by the way, he is a half-demon, so the so-called monster ability, I basically don't have it." ”

"Half-demon?!" Dior cupped her forehead, completely ignoring this possibility.

It was the first time she had encountered such a presence. Conceited... There is a price to pay.
