Chapter Twenty-Seven: Quiet
Li Long knew that as long as it was Duan He's decision, it would never change, so he had no choice but to instruct, "Be careful yourself." ”
Duan He saw Li Long's worries, his heart warmed, and a confident smile resurfaced on his face, and said, "I know, I learned some tricks in the Golden Triangle, and self-protection is definitely no problem." ”
Li Long listened to Duan He's words, and no longer dwelled on this question, and said, "What's the matter with that friend of yours?" It's that Yin Tian, I heard that you paid off your gambling debts for him today. ”
At the mention of Yin Tian, Duan He's expression darkened, there was a faint sadness between his eyebrows, he thought about it, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "It's Senior Brother, he asked me to take care of Yin Tian." ”
Li Long was surprised again: "What! Have you met Big Brother? ”
Duan He shook his head and denied, "No, it was the master's words, I was also surprised at that time, the senior brother has disappeared for more than ten years, but why did he suddenly pass the word to me through the master." ”
Li Long secretly sighed and said, "I thought you had news of Senior Brother." ”
In fact, Li Long has had the best relationship with the senior brother since he was a child, Duan He entered the division later, and when he entered the division, the senior brother had already left the division and came to the casino, it seems that Duan He and his senior brother are not very deep, but in fact, there are only two people in the old man's division who specialize in gambling, one is Duan He, the other is Duan He's senior brother, this unmet senior brother left a lot of codex notes about gambling, between the lines, Duan He has been friends with him for a long time, and some feelings do not have to be face-to-face to be deep, Duan He's admiration for his senior brother was almost to the point of worship.
So seeing Li Long's disappointment, he didn't feel very good in his heart, patted Li Long on the shoulder and said, "It's okay, since you can send back the news, it means that the senior brother is still alive, maybe the senior brother didn't show up because he wanted to do his own business." ”
Li Longmu nodded, panicked for a long time, recalling the bits and pieces of himself and his senior brother, Li Long's nose was sour, his eyes were moist, a strong man would only show helplessness when he touched the weakness of the depths of his soul, Duan He didn't speak anymore, he just wanted to give Li Long a little time to be quiet.
The room was quiet for a long time, and when Li Long's eyes were clear, he stood up and said to Duan He, "Xiaohe, I haven't heard from Senior Brother for a long time, and I just lost my temper, don't be surprised." ”
Duan He understood, "Senior brother, don't worry, even if I turn over the casino, I will find out the senior brother." ”
Li Long looked at Duan He with relief and said, "I'm relieved to have your words, it's getting late, you can rest early." ”
After speaking, Li Long stood up, walked to Xiao Zhang's corpse and put him on his shoulder, walked out of the window, opened the window, glanced back at Duan He, nodded, and then his figure flashed, and he jumped down, this is a sixteen-story building, how can a normal person survive such a jump, but looking at Duan He again, he looked at it with a relieved look, if he turned light work, Duan He, this senior brother, can be called to the ultimate realm, jumping off a sixteen-story building, only need to borrow a few points to jump without injury, this light skill can almost be said to be unpredictable.
After Li Long left, Duan He was also a little tired, many things happened tonight, and now it is one o'clock in the morning, even the iron beaten people will be a little tired, stretch their waist, and Duan He entered his room.
There was nothing to say all night, and the next day, Duan He got up at five o'clock in the morning, and now that the Nine Demon Fingers had just broken through, he needed to consolidate diligently, and walked the acupoints and meridians around his body for a big Zhou Tian, and walked a few small Zhou Tian on the acupoints of his left and right hands, and it was already eight o'clock in the morning when he opened his eyes.
Quickly put on the suit, and walked out of the hotel, Duan He wanted to buy some clothes and shoes for himself today, yesterday's set was too shabby, and it was okay to enter the general casino hall, but some private casinos or gambling ships are estimated to not even be able to enter the door.
In the early autumn of the casino, the streets are extremely deserted, the casino is usually lit up at night, and there is no one to see during the day, Duan He stopped a taxi, got in the car and told the master that he was going to buy clothes, and the master soon took Duan He to a shopping mall, in fact, it was not far from the Bund, Duan He also wanted to go to see Li Long after buying clothes.
The shopping plaza is divided into five floors, the first floor is some specialties of the casino, souvenirs and other things, at the moment because it is too early, the general shops are not open, they are different from the mainland, generally after nine o'clock will open for business, the same night will not close until more than two o'clock in the morning.
The second floor is a place to buy clothes, Duan He went directly to the elevator to the second floor, and there are not many shops open for business here, but a few shops have opened their doors, Duan He has never picked what he wears, and he just chose a shop and went in.
The clerk is a delicate little girl, in terms of appearance, you will not be amazed at first glance, but if you look at it again, you will look more and more beautiful, she bowed to Duan He and said, "Welcome, what can I do for you." ”
Duan He never liked that there was a shopping guide next to him who kept talking, so he waved his hand and said, "Buy two sets of clothes, I'll see it myself." ”
It wasn't the first day that the little girl had opened a shop here, and she could see at a glance that Duan He liked to be quiet, so she quietly stepped aside and stopped talking.
The store is not big, Duan He quickly walked around, casually chose two suits, and three sets of casual clothes, the little girl saw Duan He choose, then stepped forward to help Duan He try it on, several sets of clothes are still fitting, Duan He is also very satisfied, just about to settle the bill with the little girl, a red-faced, drunken middle-aged man staggered to the store.
As soon as the middle-aged man entered the store, he sat down on the ground, obviously drinking all night, and was a little confused at the moment.
When the little girl saw the middle-aged man enter the store, she didn't even care about Duan He, and hurriedly stepped forward to help the middle-aged man and said, "Dad, why did you drink all night again, did you go gambling again." ”
Reading between the lines, Duan He had already heard that this middle-aged man was the little girl's father, and he had perennial habits of drinking and gambling.
The middle-aged man burped and said, "No, quietly, how dare I go gambling and drinking again." ”
opened his eyes and said nonsense, quietly ignored it, helped his father to sit on the chair, and then walked to Duan He, very embarrassed and said, "Sorry sir, let you see the joke." ”
Duan He smiled and said, "It's okay, how much are these?" ”
Jing Jing looked at Duan He's clothes, made a rough estimate in his heart, and said, "A total of four thousand five hundred yuan, I can give you a twenty-percent discount." ”
Duan He said, "It's cheap, wrap it up." ”
Because the things in the casino have to go through the customs tariff, the things are ridiculously expensive, Duan He bought a total of five sets of clothes, one set is only more than 900 yuan and less than 1,000 yuan, and this store is considered to be good and cheap, so Duan He didn't bargain, and directly asked Jing Jing to wrap it up.
Jing Jing held the clothes handed over by Duan He, and was really going to find a bag to wrap up for Duan He, when he walked past the middle-aged man, the lower skirt was pulled by a hand, and Jing Jing knew that his father had something to say to himself, so he squatted down and asked, "Dad, what's wrong?" I'm in business. ”
Jingjing's father lowered his head, a little embarrassed, and squirmed for a long time before saying, "Jingjing, do you still have any money?" ”
In fact, Jing Jing already knew in her heart that her father came to her today to ask her for money, and sighed helplessly, who let herself be raised by such a father, her mother died early, and now only she and her father are left to depend on each other, and if she doesn't help him, who else can help him, so she can only ask, "How much money do you need?" ”
Jingjing's father lowered his head, never dared to look at Jingjing, and said, "I need a lot of money this time." ”
Jing Jing frowned, and said a little angrily, "Are you in gambling debt again?" ”
Jingjing's father nodded, and then lowered his head even more, almost stuffing it into his clothes.
Jing Jing said helplessly: "How much do you owe?" ”
Jingjing's father stretched out five fingers, did not speak, glanced at Jingjing, and then hurriedly lowered his head.
Jing Jing exclaimed, "Fifty thousand! Dad, I said you ......."
Before Jing Jing finished speaking, Jing Jing's father said timidly, "It's 500,000!" ”
