Chapter 51: The Praying Mantis Wants to Catch Cicadas
At half past seven o'clock in the evening, the south bank business district of City C is still prosperous, Yunhai Hotel is located in the most valuable area of the river, during this time period, the underground parking lot has long been full, and the various luxury cars parked at the door are dazzling.
Yunhai Restaurant is golden, and from a distance, it looks like a huge gold brick, and it is a landmark building on the south bank.
Chen Dong stood in the shadow across the road, looking coldly at the drunken gold fans under the night, one by one brightly dressed guests, constantly entering and exiting the hotel, two sweet-looking welcome ladies at the door of the hotel, were frequently nodding to the men and women in front of them, saying welcome, or please go slowly.
Chen Dong's body seemed to be a little stiff, he had arrived here three hours earlier, and had been squatting opposite the hotel, hoping to see the silver and peaches appear.
It's a pity that either these two people are very vigilant and enter the hotel in disguise, or the two have already been ambushed in the hotel, in short, Chen Dong didn't see the shadow of the two at all.
Seeing that the time was approaching, Chen Dong also felt that it was not meaningful to continue waiting, so he moved his legs and feet and walked slowly towards the other side of the road.
Chen Dong walked into the door of the hotel and immediately greeted a waiter wearing a cheongsam, who turned a blind eye to Chen Dong's shabby demeanor and bowed his head slightly: "Is Mr. dining or looking for someone?" ”
Chen Dong didn't speak, took out the black invitation card from his arms, and shook it in front of the waiter.
Seeing the black card in Chen Dong's hand, the waiter's attitude became more respectful, and he said with a professional smile: "Sir, please wait a moment." ”
Not long after, a waiter who looked like a foreman came to Chen Dong, bowed down and raised his hand in the direction of the hotel's private room: "Please come with me, sir." ”
Chen Dong put away the black card in his hand, followed behind the foreman, and soon came to the private room area of the hotel, but the foreman's footsteps did not stop, but walked straight through all the private rooms and came to a door.
There are four words written on the gate: Employee Passage.
The foreman pushed open the door, and an elevator immediately appeared in front of Chen Dong's eyes, the elevator looked a little old, and some looked like a freight elevator to deliver food or sundries to the hotel.
The elevator door opened, but the foreman did not go in, but stood in front of the door respectfully with his hands down, and said, "Please sir, press the minus three floors, and after the elevator arrives, someone else will take you into the banquet hall." ”
Chen Dong nodded, and pressed the B3 button on the elevator according to his words, but his hand was placed on his waist, ready to deal with the surprise attack from Silver and Peach at any time.
With a ding, the elevator door opened again, and a burly man stood at the elevator door, wearing a black suit, with intercom headphones hanging on his ears, and his hands crossed in front of him, as if waiting for Chen Dong's arrival.
But this man is not anyone in silver or peaches.
"Please sir show your invitation card." The man's accent was a bit stiff, and he seemed to be a foreigner of Asian descent.
Chen Dong handed over the wild card, and the other party picked up the wild card and checked it carefully, then showed a warm smile and made a "please" action.
After stepping out of the elevator, it turned out to be a zigzag corridor, and there was a large door at the end of the corridor, and on both sides of the door, there were several heavily armed men, who saw the corner of Chen Dong's eyes jump.
The security power of this underground boxing arena is much stronger than Uncle Lin's!
The man walking in front of Chen Dong handed Chen Dong's invitation card to several people, and only after getting confirmation again did they cautiously open the door.
A loud and noisy sound immediately came to the face.
Chen Dong walked into the door and immediately found that this underground space was quite spectacular.
The whole boxing arena is about the size of a basketball hall, and the layout pattern is quite similar to that of a general theater, with a giant boxing ring in the middle about three meters high, surrounded by a circle of stepped stands.
Although it is underground, the ventilation conditions are excellent, and the strong light makes the whole stadium brightly lit.
At this time, it was close to eight o'clock, and the seats in the stands were almost seated, and Chen Dong was led to a corner to sit down, and immediately someone walked in front of Chen Dong.
"Will the gentleman bet or the end?"
"Place a bet."
Hearing Chen Dong's answer, the man hurriedly handed over a booklet, which recorded the information of the boxers who had signed up for the boxing match at the moment.
"The information of the fighters is updated every twenty minutes, and we will let you know when a new fighter joins."
Chen Dong looked at the booklet in his hand, the production was relatively simple, but considering that it was made on the spot after the boxer signed up, he could understand it, he looked up at the waiter next to him and waved his hand.
"I'm going to wait until after the opening to buy the bet."
Hearing this, the waiter nodded to Chen Dong and then stepped aside.
In the betting rules of the underground boxing stadium, it is divided into two kinds of bets and bets later, and betting before the boxer enters the arena is called the first bet, and the bettor can only judge the strength and victory of the fighter according to the information provided by the boxing venue, so the general odds will be relatively high.
As for the post-bet, just like Chen Dong, after the bettor and other boxers enter the arena, according to the boxer's posture, body shape, mental state, etc., combined with the boxer's information given by the boxing stadium, the most important choice is to choose the object of betting.
The back bet is obviously more secure, and it also tests the punter's vision and experience, and the odds will be lower than the first bet.
Chen Dong didn't come to the boxing stadium today to gamble, but he also had to make the necessary gestures, of course, if possible, Chen Dong naturally wouldn't let the boxing prize money he had saved over the years go down the drain.
So after the waiter left, Chen Dong was secretly observing the guests in the boxing ring, trying to find the traces of silver and peaches, and on the other hand, he also carefully looked at the information in his hand.
As expected, among the boxers who signed up for the competition, there was no name of silver and peach, if it wasn't for the two of them temporarily changing their names to compete, it means that these two people are not here to fight today, their target from the beginning, is Chen Dong.
It's a pity that there are too many people at the scene, and finding silver and peaches from so many people is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack, and it is difficult for Chen Dong to dig out these two people in such a short period of time.
But Chen Dong was not in a hurry, because he knew that since Yinzi and Peaches dared to use this method to attract themselves, then they must have a way to find themselves!
Since you can't control the enemy first, let's strike later!
Thinking of this, the corners of Chen Dong's mouth curled up, cocked Erlang's legs, and began to carefully look through the booklet in his hand.
Chen Dong's guess was right, although he couldn't find the silver and peach at this moment, but as early as when he just stepped out of the elevator, his figure fell into two pairs of eyes.
"And he came." Yinzi's face was full of flesh, and when he laughed, his cheeks were uplifted, quite like a silver ingot, from which his name came from.
Peaches didn't say anything, just stared at the man on the screen with a gloomy face, and the short hair on the top of his head that made up the peach pattern was like steel needles, glowing with a cold cold light.
At this time, neither of them was in the ring, more precisely, the two of them did not participate in this so-called "charity dinner" at all, they were not underground, but on the ground!
Chen Dong didn't expect that the silver and peaches that he was trying to deal with at all were not in the place he could see, but in the hotel room several floors above his head!
Yunhai Hotel is an industry integrating catering, entertainment and accommodation, and the silver and peaches were settled in an ordinary room in Yunhai Hotel a few days ago, just waiting for Chen Dong to take the bait.
Of course, during the period, with the opportunity to reveal Chen Dong's news to the boxing ring, the two set up a camera in the corner of the boxing ring that was hidden enough.
Attacking when the enemy least expects it is the best option.
Yinzi and Momoko didn't know that Chen Dong had learned about them, but the two of them were still cautious enough to make arrangements, and even made a plan to deal with Chen Dong's direct appearance outside their room!
"Peach, if you want me to say, you don't have to be so troublesome at all, just with the skills of the two of us, we can definitely eat him hard!" Silver was a little unimpressed by Peaches' strategy.
At this time, Peaches finally spoke, his voice was a little hoarse, all thanks to Chen Dong, because Chen Dong punched Peaches on the Adam's apple at that time, almost puncturing his vocal cords.
"Do you want to die again?"
Yinzi smiled, didn't quarrel with the other party, walked to the side of the bed and lay down on the soft mattress, and said, "Okay, okay, I can't tell you, call me when he leaves." ”
There seems to be a perfunctory attitude towards Yinzi, and Momoko is not annoyed, he knows that the other party is such a character, and Yinzi is not a light enemy when he is lying in bed now, but he is seizing all the time to recuperate and adjust his state.
It's not a game yet, and obviously it's going to be a very long night.
In the computer screen in front of Peach, Chen Dong looked very relaxed, as if he was really a gambler, he slowly flipped through the book in his hand, looking calm.
But Peaches didn't know what to do, and at an angle he couldn't see, even if Chen Dong's right hand was holding a pamphlet, it was always on top of the dagger on his waist!
After another quarter of an hour, Chen Dong finally finished reading the information distributed by the boxing ring, from which he selected two groups of fighters to fight and was ready to place bets on them.
And at this time, a woman suddenly walked onto the central boxing ring, and the noise in the boxing ring suddenly became much quieter.
The woman wore a fiery red trench coat on the outside, but only a black underwear on the inside, and the long hair of the shawl fell to her chest, which looked like she wanted to cover up.
The beautiful figure, beautiful face, and sexy dress immediately made the male audience in the audience breathe heavily.
It turned out to be Yu Ji!
Chen Dong frowned, he didn't expect Yu Cheng to be the host of today's boxing match, and Yu Cheng didn't tell him about this in advance.
Yu walked to the center of the ring, bowed in all directions, and then raised a hand high.
With Yu Ji's movements, the scene was completely quiet.
Yu Ji smiled slightly and said, "First of all, on behalf of the boss of the boxing stadium, thank you for coming. Yu Ji's voice was calm, and there was quite a lot of demeanor between her gestures: "The corresponding rules must not be repeated by me, as long as you win the bet, then you will get the full amount of compensation, the credibility of this field is absolutely reliable!" ”
Speaking of this, Yu Ji gently stroked her hair, revealing the snow white on her chest, and waved her hand with one hand: "Next, we invite the boxers of our first boxing match to fight!" ”
After speaking, the lights around the boxing ring suddenly went out, leaving only the incandescent lights directly above the boxing ring, reflecting the entire boxing ring in snow-white.
