230 Gathering of Heroes (Part I)
……………… 230, Gathering of Heroes (I) ........................
Qiu Ci asked casually, Dao Lang ignored the Ou family's pursuit order at this time, and appeared in the Central Administrative Region of the Capital Star with a big grin, if he said that he was not serious, I am afraid that no one would believe the mecha hunter.
And the business of a killer is undoubtedly to carry out the mission, but I don't know who ordered his mission this time, and whose life he bought?
Daolang was noncommittal, the pair of peach blossom electric eyes were discharging in all directions towards the beautiful lady beside him, and after a while, he seemed to react to what Qiu Ci said, and said "ah" in his mouth, and then brought the topic like this.
Qiu Zi doesn't care, killers have killer rules, and things related to tasks, even if they are as close as a father and mother, or a lifelong partner who shares the same bed, they are also tight-lipped as a bottle. The first criterion of a killer is to be strict, and the second is the means.
As the prodigal son of the king of killers in later generations, Daolang undoubtedly abides by this criterion very much, because this killer criterion was proposed by Daolang in later generations and has been recognized by the killer association. The killer organization he leads is also the most reassuring organization entrusted with tasks, even if it fails, it will never **** itself.
The casino was bustling with activity, vulgar yelling and yelling, and it was full of people with red faces or trembling feet pretending to be calm. Such a scene is extremely familiar, this is the circle of life she is familiar with, artillery fire, bloody killing, happy revenge, and happy casino.
"Do you know why only paper fans can open in the Capital Star openly?" Daolang stretched out his hand and pulled Qiu Ci to his side, avoiding the few reckless men who bumped into her.
"Because its owner is the Wang family." Autumn words replied.
Daolang nodded. He asked again: "Then why can only the Wang family open a casino on the Capital Star?" You must know that among the seven great families, the Wang family is not the richest and most powerful family. ”
This question cannot be answered, alliances are different from empires. The League emphasizes the rule of law and humanity, and every decree is enacted by the Supreme Court of the Union, and then needs to be approved by more than two-thirds of the members of the National Assembly. Finally, the government will enact and implement it. Under such a separation of powers, mutual supervision and mutual restraint will not be able to achieve absolute fairness, at least on the surface, there will be no privileged class.
No matter how powerful a person is, if he breaks the law, he must find a scapegoat to help him accept the criminal law, and it is impossible to be like the empire, where commoners and slaves are killed by nobles. The nobility will not be punished in the slightest.
It is because the Wang family has enjoyed such special treatment over the years, but no one has ever raised any objections, although the people of the alliance do not know what the alliance's high-level people are thinking, but they know that there must be some secrets. Those things are too far from their lives, and boring lives. It is rare to have a place to relax, so the privilege of the Wang family has been acquiesced in for thousands of years.
Dao Lang smiled, took her hand and walked to the smooth transparent elevator in the middle of the lobby, and said: "When the alliance was established, it was also like the Empire's Independent Alliance, which was united by the rebels of all planets in the Pandora system to overthrow the last feudal dynasty in the Pandora system. At that time, the ancestor of the Wang family made a big bet, and what he wanted to bet was to change the day. ”
He smiled. Turning his head to see that Qiu Ci listened carefully, he continued: "The Wang family started with gambling, and at that time it could be said to be the most powerful family in the gray world, and its power spread all over the planets of the Pandora Galaxy. The ancestor of the Wang family was the first to join the Rebel League, which is now the Alliance, and he used the money accumulated by the Wang family for thousands of years to support the revolutionary army in purchasing weapons. Use the casinos owned by the Wang family as a secret stronghold for the rebel alliance. In the modern history of the alliance, although the ancestor of the Wang family has not been recorded in it, he is a hero in this revolution, and no one in the alliance dares to deny his merits. ”
"Later, the revolution succeeded, the alliance was established, and the ancestors of the Wang family retired after success, and he only had one privilege, that is, the Wang family could open a casino anywhere in the alliance."
The transparent elevator slowly rose with the two of them, Qiu Ci listened silently, and looked at the lobby farther and farther away under X, and those dense figures made her feel very much like a nest of black ants.
"I don't understand what the ancestors of the Wang family think, since the Wang family was already the first family in the gray world at that time, why bother to do this?"
Dao Lang looked down with her gaze and said with a smile: "The feudal dynasty has a barbaric problem, the people in power always think that other people's things are theirs, as long as you fancy it, you have to obediently dedicate it to him as a mecha hunter." The Wang family had countless assets at that time, if it was a pig, it was time to slaughter, you said, should the pig at this time be in a hurry? ”
Qiu Ci smiled heartily and treated the Wang family as pigs, and slaughtered them when they were fat, which may be what the people in power thought at that time. It's a pity that this pig is too smart and knows that his life is short, so he fights back.
She admires the long-term vision of the ancestors of the Wang family, and even more appreciates his courage to dare to make a Bo. And the ancestor of the Wang family is worthy of being the head of the gambling family, and he saw that he was not only betting on changing the day, but also gambling on the wealth of the Wang family every year.
The elevator door opened, and the two of them had entered the casino on the second floor, which was much cleaner than the lobby on the ground floor. A reception lady walked over next to her, bowed to the two of them, and asked softly, "Sir, miss, is there anything to serve you?" ”
"Playing two?" Daolang lowered his head and asked Qiu Zi beside him.
Qiu Ci's gaze wandered around the hall, although there were more than half of the people here compared to the hall on the ground floor, it was by no means a clear one that could be counted in a short time. She secretly guessed which one was the Knight of the Black Rose. After a long time, she finally gave up her blank search, the Black Rose Knight was just like Lin Feng, with different identities and appearances on different occasions, to recognize him at a glance was tantamount to a needle in the sea.
"Let's play two, then." Qiu Zi looked up and responded with a smile. Since the Knight of the Black Rose asked him to come here, he would have come to her, so why bother?
Daolang snapped his fingers, took out a bank card from his pocket, and handed it to the beautiful maid, and deliberately pinched the white and tender little hand with his fingers when he handed it.
The waitress raised her head, her face flushed, and Dao Lang threw a wink at her, full of electricity. The girl didn't know if she was really tender or clever, so she glanced at Daolang shyly and timidly, and then took the bank card to help the two exchange chips.
"What do you want to play?" Daolang asked again.
Qiu Ci glanced at him strangely, and said curiously: "Shouldn't you have a task?" Aren't you afraid of delaying your business by following my words? ”
Daolang raised his eyebrows and said tenderly: "A true gentleman, no matter how important the matter, will never snub the women around him." ”
Qiu Yu laughed dumbly, ignored him, and walked towards the rightmost table, where there were the fewest people and the quietest.
Casinos are lively places, but any quieter place than elsewhere is often because the stakes are too large, and ordinary people can't afford or are reluctant to gamble.
The best dice on the table, the dealer is a middle-aged man with a mediocre appearance, and two deputies around him. There were only seven people sitting on the seats, five men and two women, all of whom were guarded by guards behind them.
There are a total of eight seats, and there is one left, Qiu Ci was unceremonious, and sat down directly, Daolang smiled bitterly, and had to stand behind her as her guard.
The seven of them looked up at the new gamblers at the same time, and then they all withdrew their gazes lightly, as if they didn't think that Qiu Ci was young and there was anything wrong with gambling at the same table with them.
Qiu Ci also glanced at the seven people lightly, the two women were about thirty years old, and the five men were old, middle-aged and young, and the last one on her left hand made her eyes widen.
This man in his fifties, Huo Ran is her eldest brother Louis. Jon, and the guards who followed him, Qiu Ci took a closer look, and it was Xie Kaiyan whose face was full of beard again.
Xie Kaiyan also saw her and Daolang, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then his gaze swept over Qiu Ci and fell on Daolang's face. Daolang raised his eyebrows at him with a hippie smile, and then pouted and kissed him in the air.
Xie Kaiyan twitched the corners of his mouth that was fortunately not covered by his beard, shook his head fiercely, and resolutely did not look at this guy.
Qiu Ci moved his gaze to the right again, and suddenly the whole person was stunned.
If Louis. If Jon's presence only surprised her, the old man sitting in the third place on her right hand surprised her.
The old man sat there with white hair and eyebrows, dressed in a snow-white robe, just like a real old man.
But how ordinary is his identity?
The most famous high priest of the Dikal Empire in the past thousand years descended on a casino on the star of the Alliance's capital, what a huge impact did this give Qiu Ci?
No wonder Louis. Jon would be here, as President of Parliament and Minister of Foreign Affairs. When the High Priest came here, whether he was a private person or on behalf of the Empire, he had to be received by someone worthy of his status.
Behind the high priest, there stood two acquaintances, Hongni and Chiming, who had followed Huo Su's side, and the two of them stood respectfully and respectfully.
Qiu Ci suddenly felt as if she was sitting in the wrong seat, no wonder this place was the cleanest, no wonder there were few people at this table, she sat here, and suddenly felt out of place.
There shouldn't be any big names, right? She thought, her gaze shifting, and she breathed a sigh of relief. Opposite the high priest sat an unusually burly old man, this old man had a bronze complexion, black and white hair was messy, and he was wearing an extremely ordinary practice robe. But for some reason, this old man sat there ordinary, but his momentum was not lost to the high priest opposite, and he even had a tendency to fight in court.
was looked at by Qiu Ci, the old man's eyes glanced at her faintly, and there was lightning in his eyes. Qiu Ci suddenly felt a suffocating oppressive aura coming from her face, and she hurriedly turned her head away...... (To be continued.)
