Chapter 141: The Nightingale
The five major families in the capital do not involve the military and the government, except for Min Shengdong and Wang Mingxu, whom she had already met that day, there are also Qi, Jin, and Yu.
The forces in the capital are complex, and they all have some connections with each other, and no one can tell which force they belong to, but almost all of the five major families made their fortunes from business, and on the surface, they have never had any close contact with the military and the government.
It can be said that it is precisely because the five major families are twisted into a rope with each other that they can stand in the capital for a hundred years, and it is even more important that several top leaders firmly control the economic lifeline of the capital, and on the surface they can block the encroachment of foreign forces, and kick out all the forces that want to squeeze into the business circle of the capital, but secretly they are united and not deprived by the joint suppression and deprivation of the military and the government.
But with the change of the times, not only the change of leaders, but even the five heads of the family are no longer the heads of the family they once were, so the current situation is that the five major families have secretly found their own backers, and the so-called collusion between officials and businessmen is nothing more than that.
At the beginning, it was indeed more effective, but as the mud feet fell into the depths, the connection between each other became closer and closer, and more and more drawbacks were exposed.
The five major families, which have formed alliances with the major forces, have to stand one after another at this moment.
For example, Qi Ming and Tu Qiwen who appeared here, as well as Cheng's second brother Cheng Minjia.
Ye Liqi took a deep breath slightly, watching Yue Chengxuan throw all the chips on the table into the white circle in front of him, but his calm mind was suddenly disrupted, and a bad premonition suddenly appeared.
Ye Liqi coughed lowly, and looked back at behind him, as well as the dark night sky outside.
The personal terminal on the wrist suddenly shook.
Ye Liqi slowly lowered his head, looked at the personal terminal that suddenly lit up, swiped the screen slightly, and closed the lit screen.
Patting Yue Chengxuan's shoulder, Ye Lixuan said in a low voice: "I'll leave for a while, you should be careful and act when you have the opportunity." ”
Yue Chengxuan nodded, Ye Liqi nodded, turned around and left his seat and went to the bathroom.
Using a dagger to pry open the staff's utility room, Ye Lili walked in, closed the door again, opened the personal terminal, and a message suddenly jumped out of it, Ye Lili tapped lightly on it, and then a new special task appeared in her task list.
"Special mission, this task is the first task of the Awakened Dream Devourer, it cannot be refused, it cannot be repeated, and it cannot be failed."
Ye Liqi narrowed her eyes, and this tone reminded her of her last special mission.
"The Awakened Dream Eater will carry out this mission on the cruise ship of the belonging Yin Chenghao tonight, and the mission deadline is 8 o'clock the next morning."
"The following is a detailed description of the mission, please read it carefully: The Awakened Dream Eater will go to Room 407 on the fourth floor of the cruise ship at night after the cruise ship leaves the open sea, and contact a missionist codenamed Nightingale in the room, and bring back the message conveyed by the Nightingale completely, and at the same time erase the Nightingale without leaving any traces."
"Reward after the completion of the task: a set of defensive soft armor, 600 points, and 1,000 personal contribution points."
Ye Liqi closed the personal terminal, took a deep breath, put his hand on the door bolt, and was about to pull the door bolt to push the door out, but suddenly heard the sound of the bathroom door opening.
Ye Liqi's hand paused slightly, but he took it off the deadbolt again and stood quietly in the toilet cubicle.
The person who came in seemed to casually pushed open the toilet door next to Ye Lingli, and then pulled the door bolt, and then there was no normal unzipper or any other sound, but remembered the key sound of the phone.
Ye Liqi measured his face slightly, looked at the white baffle on the right side, and heard a man's angry voice on the other end of the phone: "How is it?" ”
"I don't know where I went, I lost it!" The woman whispered back.
"What the hell, such a big person can be lost, what about his companion?" The man on the phone reprimanded.
"The companion is still there, and we have someone to keep an eye on at all times." The woman replied.
Ye Liqi squinted his eyes, but his right hand quietly touched the black dagger on his waist.
"That's good, you be careful, this little girl might be fooling around in someone's bed now." The man's hateful voice rang out.
"Okay, do you need proof?" The woman asked.
"Damn, if there is the best, I see how she quibbles this time, and if you find evidence that Yuan Muqi is really fooling around, send a copy to Li Yaxiu first, I don't believe that Li Yaxiu can protect this little slut again this time." The man's smug voice rang out.
The woman answered, replied simply, then hung up the phone, pushed open the toilet door and walked out.
Ye Liqi slowly put down his hand from the three [ridges] [army] thorns, and the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, he suddenly came up with a clever plan, but it depends on whether Yuan Muqi's fish will be baited.
Seeing that no one came in anymore, Ye Liqi pushed open the door and went out, and then closed the staff utility room again.
Sitting next to Yue Chengxuan, Ye Lingqi actually found that in just such a short time, Yue Chengxuan had already won all the chips he had lost before.
Ye Liqi looked at Yue Cheng Xuanzhi proudly holding a large number of loose chips to exchange them for large chips, and smiled slightly: "Luck is so good?" ”
Yue Chengxuan nodded, and walked to the next venue with Ye Liqi: "That's nature, how about it, do you want to play dice?" ”
Ye Liwan: "I also have this intention. ”
Yue Chengxuan smiled, pushed open the door of the dice playing room, walked in with Ye Li, and sat down in the middle.
As the dealer pressed the button on the dice machine, the dice inside also began to spin rapidly, and the continuous sound of "dong dong" dice hitting the inner wall also sounded.
"Do you know this person Li Yaxiu?" Ye Liqi turned his head slightly and asked, the two seemed to be talking about whether the dice were big or small.
Yue Chengxuan pinched his fingers on the chips, and glanced at Ye Liqi without a trace, but found that Ye Liqi was also looking at him.
After thinking about it, Yue Chengxuan asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Ye Liqi understood Yue Chengxuan's psychology, so he said directly and simply: "I heard a message in the bathroom just now, including Li Yaxiu, and an old enemy of mine, I want to find something to do for them." ”
Yue Chengxuan's heart was relieved, and said: "Li Yaxiu, who is two months younger than me, is also one of the main heirs who can inherit all the property of the Li family. ”
Ye Lixuan blinked, smiled slightly, and simply understood Li Yaxiu's personality and temper, and asked for a phone number that could be contacted at any time, Yue Chengxuan thought about it for a while, and then didn't ask anything anymore, and put his interest into the gambling table.
Waiting for the dealer to signal that everyone could start betting, Ye Liqi directly took a chip of 10,000 yuan and threw it in the "big" white circle.
Yue Chengxuan glanced back at Ye Li, but said with a generous smile: "Since you are sure, why not go down to it all." Then he threw all his chips into a small white circle.
Ye Liqi raised his eyebrows, but he didn't object.
When the dealer opened the lid of the dice cup, the three dice inside showed that they were five, six, six, and seventeen o'clock in size.
Ye Lingqi smiled, motioned for Yue Chengxuan to continue playing, took three 10,000 chips, and left the room.
The cruise ship is very large, divided into four floors, the first floor is the hall, there are probably no less than 20 tables of gambling tables on it, all kinds of tricks, all kinds of ways, everything, the second floor also opened more than a dozen gambling games, but they are all in a separate room, the chips played are ten times larger than the outside, the outside may bet at least a few hundred thousand, inside the room, are from 10,000 prices.
The third floor is the rest room for some VIPs, and almost every room has his own bodyguard guarding the door, and there is no shortage of tall foreigners who can be seen in it.
Of course, how can such a luxurious and luxurious cruise ship not be accompanied by beautiful women, but these beauties are only available to those guests who have VIP private rooms.
The fourth floor of the cruise ship belongs to the private space, usually Young Master Yin meets some friends, or talks about anything on the fourth floor, in addition, there are also study, gym, and bedrooms and other places, so the defense measures here are also the most tight.
Ye Liqi's goal was the fourth layer, but before that, she still had some small arrangements that had not been completed.
Finding a place where no one was, Ye Liqi used his personal terminal to contact Luo Ka, and simply explained what he needed, Luo Ka immediately nodded, indicating that he would be able to do this little thing soon.
The visitors on the cruise ship are mixed, all kinds of gamblers, businessmen, officials, or criminals, just like a small society, the only kind of people lacking are ordinary people.
But everyone knows whose ship this ship is, naturally, there is also an unspoken rule, as long as you get on this boat, no matter what your identity, no matter what kind of past you have, you must abandon it, no matter how much hatred, no matter what the reason, no human life is allowed on the cruise ship, not only for gamblers, including anyone on board, waiters and those beautiful ladies.
Although the gamblers on the cruise ship all have complex identities and unknown origins, there will be a simple distinction between these people.
It is also this distinction that allows ordinary gamblers to wander around in the lobby on the first floor, and can enter and exit the small private rooms on the second floor, but can no longer go up to the third floor.
Ye Liqi went to the entrance to the third floor, there were only two elevators, and there were four bodyguards guarding the elevator.
