2. Lost Golden Deer
"Golden deer? Golden Deer is a name I have never heard of. ”
Two fox monsters, one cold and one hot, sat facing each other, thinking while flicking their tails. Yuzuri, on the other hand, sat beside them expectantly and nervously.
The youkai named the Golden Deer may be able to temporarily suppress the growth of its bad luck. If she told her mother the truth, she would have tied up the monster even if it turned the world upside down, but obviously this will not work.
Originally, if you ask for help from others, you should be on the weak side, but if you not only need the other party's help, but also use threats to get the other party to agree, isn't this no different from kidnapping for ransom?
So now the only ones who can discuss are their two bodyguards, but fortunately, they still seem to be able to understand a little reason, and they haven't done anything sneaky. It's just that the existence and whereabouts of this monster are much more difficult to search than expected.
"I've used all the intelligence networks I can mobilize individually, but no one knows anything about this monster, let alone its whereabouts."
Qinghu sighed, as if he was frustrated by his unfavorable behavior, "In order not to let anyone know about this, so you can't casually ask those monsters who can't be fully trusted, miss, I think it's better to talk to Madame, and then ask her to use the broader intelligence network to search for it." ”
"But that's the mother'......"
"Hey, I know Madame's temperament, but compared to the other party's situation, your safety, Miss, is the first thing we need to consider. So even if the responsibility is shifted to us, it must be ......"
"Hey...... Wait. What about me? ”
After being ignored by his brother, he was ignored by Yuzuri. Chihu finally couldn't help it. "I also used my own special way to do a good investigation."
"Your particular way is to just find a random place to play anyway. Then ask passers-by, 'Have you ever heard of the Golden Deer'?" ”
"Goo...... Brother, you know me very well, but ...... Hum. ”
Chihu, which was supposed to be bitter-faced, suddenly became unavoidable. Theoretically, Qinghu's words can't be wrong, this bodyguard who is very "idle" during the break must have gone to play, but this time it always feels ...... He's very fearless.
"Brother, miss, this time you are very wrong. Because I was just playing and I accidentally found out about that guy. ”
After stupidly admitting that he was just going out to play, Chihu continued. "I was a little too tired before, so I wanted to go for a ...... There are beautiful bunny girls to hang out, and when it comes to bunny girls, of course, it's a casino! Carrying the plate back and forth...... Mutter. ”
"Getting to the point."
"There is news of the Golden Deer, although it is not yet certain."
After being rewarded with a punch on the head by Qinghu, Chihu finally came back to his senses from his complacency, and it looked like he was waiting for this punch to bring him back to his senses.
"At that time, it was a scene that scared me to death, so I asked more questions. I probably learned that the golden deer likes to be luxuriously decorated in major casinos, and to put it bluntly, it is a big casino gangster. ”
"What do you mean?"
"It's hard to explain this sentence or two, anyway, you can just come with me."
Chihu said and stood up. With Yuzuri and Qinghu, I walked towards the car that had been prepared in advance. After slowly fastening the seat belt, he stepped on the accelerator before continuing the previous topic.
"At that time, it was because I went overseas. So it would be difficult to pull her over at the moment, and my identity would probably be on guard. So I rushed back overnight and borrowed my wife's casino. ”
"Casino...... This direction. ”
Qinghu, whose face changed suddenly, suddenly looked around, and then grabbed Chihu's collar desperately, and the speeding car also drew an exaggerated arc on the road.
"Brother! It's going to kill you when you're driving! Miss is still behind!"
"That's one of Madame's important sources of funding, do you know what you're doing!"
"Well, anyway, Madame won't care about something to the extent that it can cure Miss's illness, so I'll reveal it a little, so I got Madame's permission?" Chihu smiled slightly, "Actually, I don't want to do this, but if it weren't for the casino in Madame's name, I'm afraid that no event would have attracted that golden deer." Luckily this time it was good luck, and the informant told me that the guy was now in the casino. ”
"Whew, just mess around, but if something really happens, don't hide behind me."
Seeing that the destination had arrived, Qinghu took the lead in getting out of the car and opened the door for Yuzuri, while Chihu climbed on the shoulders of the man in the suit who immediately greeted him with a relaxed face.
"Whew, what's the matter, is the money enough? If it's not enough, go directly to finance and let them continue to call. ”
"Brother Chi, it's not a question of enough!"
Maybe it's because Chihu's usual personality is more easy-going than his brother's, and it seems that even his subordinates don't treat him so strictly.
"That guy is totally ...... You told me to keep her anyway, and I've already gone to get the finances to settle the accounts twice, and it seems like I'm still going to see the light. I'm afraid it will continue like this......"
"It's okay, well done."
Chihu patted the other party's shoulder, "It's just better than I thought, it's just a robbery." Anyway, take us in first, Miss is also behind, pay attention to the guards. ”
……
Overemphasis is placed on luxurious casinos, and to be honest, except for those who have so much money that they want to come in and have a good time, ordinary people who care a little bit of money will not be stupid and delve into it.
In fact, the real profit of the casino is in these few people, with near-perfect service and high-end venues to win the favor of the rich, attracting them to make some meaningless spending here.
It was supposed to be like this, but today it seems a little strange, although Chihu had expected it. But I still couldn't help frowning.
All the guests gathered around a table. Apparently they are "watching" and not "playing". And the place surrounded by everyone is probably the guy who is really looking for this time.
Rather than visiting, the youkai named Golden Deer looks more like it's doing magic here. Dressed in a rather delicate tuxedo, her blonde hair was loosely tied behind her head, a black hat on top of her head seemed to be as strange as a bunch of pigeons coming out of it, and under the monocle in front of her right eye was an undisguised smile, as if she could not lose every gamble here.
In fact, she will most likely not be defeated, as Chihu has seen before. arrogantly raised the gambling equipment in his hand. Then shouted out arrogantly.
"Straight flush, ahhhh......h Bankrupt? ”
"Woo......"
The old man sitting opposite the golden deer almost fell down without taking a breath, and his resistance was quite strong, and he pointed at the golden deer immediately after finally relieving himself.
"You...... You're out of thousands! ”
"Huh? What kind of thing is out of a thousand, but there is a circle of people around us who are watching it? And I didn't even turn over the cards, and my hands were empty, so what way to get out of a thousand. ”
At the end of the smile was the arrogant taunt of the golden deer, "I'm just just lucky, I'll go to the nursing home if I lose all the money." Old and immortal! ”
"You...... You ......"
"If you don't have a dime, you can go to find relief subsidies, this kind of high-end place is not suitable for a poor person like you!"
"Wow......"
The old man, who finally couldn't help it, fell on his back after a whimper. Although he was immediately helped up by the waiter behind him, his face looked like he was dying soon.
Really...... This golden deer is not fake.
Even the fact that it swept away all the money in the casino and made other gamblers vomit blood in anger. Several of the previous casinos had gone from top-notch to the verge of bankruptcy because of this guy's all-night visits.
The stacks of chips beside Jin Lu have fully proved this, and most of the casinos of this size are just a slightly larger cake in her eyes. Golden Deer ...... This kind of guy seems to belong to the kind of luck that is particularly lucky, if it is really Miss's cure, say no......
"Wait, what are you going to do!? Take the old man to the hospital and contact his family. ”
After an uncharacteristically forceful move to push aside the unkind waiter, Chihu came to the golden deer, and at the same time used his hand behind his back to hint at his brother not to move.
"This young lady is a legitimate winner, we are not an underworld."
"Oh, that's good." Seeing that someone could finally understand, Jin Lu looked very happy, "So, what do you want to do next?" Clicked me at night while I was sleeping? Or is it straightforward...... Why don't you let me go? ”
"How, since we can afford to open a casino, we are ready to lose money. This time it wasn't revenge. ”
Chihu said and stepped out of the way and pushed Yuzu pear in front of him, "Actually, it's rare for our young lady to come out to play today, so how about you please accompany her to play a little bit?" ”
"Hey! Ay? But ...... "Should it be said that it is worthy of the master-servant relationship for many years, after being surprised for a while, Yuzuri still understood what Chihu meant, but then she still looked a little frustrated, "But I don't know anything......
"It doesn't matter, as long as you want to play, Miss, any rules can be changed temporarily. How about the size of the bet this time? ”
After getting the nod from the golden deer, Chihu's eyes fell on Qinghu, "Brother, please shuffle the cards." ”
“……”
The rules are too simple, but Rao is so, and it still attracts a lot of guests because of the existence of the golden deer. Trying to cheat in this situation is simply a fantasy, in other words, this time the comparison is really a simple competition for "luck".
So, since Miss's bad luck has always been very strong, and it will even directly affect the people who have a relationship with her, and the golden deer seems to belong to the kind of monster that is so lucky that it explodes, if the two of them directly affect each other, what is it......
"So, let's make a remake, everybody."
"Uh......h Three of spades. ”
The first to cry was Yuzuri, and considering Yuzu's bad luck, this result was actually basically determined. But what really makes Chihu care is the side of the golden deer.
"Ah, what a pity, Miss, I'm a cube four on my side."
Although it is also a small number, at least in terms of victory and defeat, it is better than Yuzu. No, that alone is a bit of a problem. According to the strong luck of the golden deer, she is a little sorry for herself if she doesn't touch a card like a king, but now she is only touching a single digit. Could it be ......
"Ah, I think I forgot to mention the bet just now. But forget it, just warm it up first. ”
Jin Lu said and laughed, "If I win the next one, how about bothering the eldest lady to sell this casino and then convert the money to me?" ”
"Huh!?"
"Okay, I agreed on behalf of Miss."
There was an exclamation all around, but the most surprising thing was the yuzu pear itself.
"Red Lake!"
"Ah, miss, don't be so excited, this level of local lady will never care, I will bear the responsibility. And ......"
Chihu leaned closer to Yuzuli, "Miss, if you really care about me, why don't you just take it a little more seriously and win?" After all, this kind of game is 'fighting for luck', right? ”
"Woo......"
"Then Miss, if you win, you will take the money, what if we win?"
"Puff puff...... You guys? Jin Lu laughed evilly, "Whatever you want?" I'm not going to lose anyway. ”
"Ok, that's what you're waiting for, then brother, deal the cards."
……
The fingers were trembling, as if the grapefruit and the golden deer that couldn't survive even a second formed the most stark contrast. In the end, Yuzuri, who couldn't bear it most, opened the card in front of her with a sad face.
Block 4......
It's a little bigger than just now, but the win rate hasn't changed at all. However, while the surrounding guests were sighing, Chihu was keenly aware of the change in the golden deer's face.
Finally, is it affected? It's time to close the net.
"It's ready to be lifted...... Kim, Miss Deer? ”
"You ......"
"Or is your card smaller than a 4 and you have no face?"
Facing the golden deer, whose face changed suddenly, Chihu snickered. And Qinghu, who was still dealing cards just now, had silently come behind Jinlu to prevent her from escaping. The cooperation between the two brothers no longer needs words to remind each other.
"Hoo ......"
A gentle gust of wind lifted the slap in front of the golden deer table that was frozen in place, and the three hearts ...... Of course, the Golden Deer lost. Lost to Yuzuri, who was supposed to be unlucky and couldn't win at all.
"I remember when you said you could ask for anything, right?" (To be continued......)
