Chapter 355: The Battle of the Square Table
This title made the atmosphere in the entire casino that was originally noisy because of this incident suddenly cooled down. The people who made trouble did not dare to make trouble, the onlookers also restrained their smiles, and some people showed respectful looks. But one thing is clear, that is, no one cares if this casino will give Fang Xing money or not, because that's the weight of the name in this city.
"Of course." Robin nodded at Fang Xing with a smiling expression, "Then please follow me." ”
Fang Xing didn't say anything, didn't continue to ask for the so-called chips, and followed.
For this almost farcical gamble, although the people around him were eager to know the result, but in the end they all dispersed from their own aspects, and the turntable dealer also fell to the ground gasping for breath of relief, this strange unfolding was simply unexpected, but in any case this result was the best for him.
Following the red carpet, I passed through the glorious white passage inside the rain banquet.
Robin introduced as he walked, "This is where the rain banquet is used to entertain VIP customers. ”
"VIP customers?"
"Well, it's usually some wealthy businessmen who come here to trade, and some people who trade weapons and intelligence." Robin is straightforward.
"Then I have nothing to do with the word VIP, I'm just a simple gambler."
Robin smiled but didn't answer, if it weren't for the incredible things she learned from the intelligence, as well as Fang Xing's terrifying bounty, she would probably think that Fang Xing was a stunned young man who came to the casino to make trouble.
After walking to a door, Robin stopped, looked at Fang Xing and continued, "The boss is waiting for you inside. ”
Robin pushed open the door and put on a welcoming posture, and Fang Xing walked in without retreating.
Unlike the proportions of the door, the room is a spacious room that can be called a square. From the top of the door down is a staircase with a festive red carpet. Walking up the stairs, below is a boxy conference table. By this time, a man was already sitting in the corner of the square table. The swivel chair was facing away from the square table, and the man only showed a side face. It was a man who could feel the gloom on it even if only one side was exposed.
Fang Xing didn't pay attention to it, but jumped onto the escalator, just slid down the escalator, and came to the square table, and then sat up.
At this time, the transfer slowly moved over to face the square table, and the man actually revealed his appearance.
This is a man who pays attention to his appearance, whether it is the clothes he wears without wrinkles, or the neatly groomed hair on his head. In addition to this image, there is a stitch mark on the bridge of his nose on his face, which makes people feel intimidated at first sight. And he also has a feared name, Klockdahl.
Klockdahl just looked at Fang Xing like this, feeling a little displeased with his rudeness, and said coldly: "Reward the offender Fang Xing? ”
As if in response, Fang Xing said smoothly: "What are you doing?" ”
Klockdahl's face stiffened, his mood was as bad as his expression, but he still suppressed his temper and said coldly, "I want to make a deal with you." ”
"What deal?" Fang Xing asked knowingly, he had already gotten the answer from the person Klockdahl had sent to contact him before.
Klockdahl looked cold, and the answer was explained by Robin, who walked over from the side, "I hope you can provide the blueprints of the Immortal." ”
"That's... Stuff? Fang Xing fell into a hesitation, but said, "I have it, but what price can you offer?" You won't let me provide it to you for nothing, I believe you have done business so many times, and you won't let me provide it for nothing. ”
Klockdahl raised his forehead, which had no eyebrows, and looked a little surprised by what Fang Xing said, but not surprised. It was surprising that Fang Xing would speak like this and confess that he had drawings so directly, and it was not surprising that he would not hand them over so easily.
"Of course I won't let you give it for nothing." Klockdahl said flatly, but suddenly his tone aggravated, "So what if I say that I will exchange your partner's life for it?" A woman, a man, plus a tanuki. ”
"Do you think they're worth the value of the Immortal?" Fang Xing asked rhetorically.
Klockdahl was silent for a moment, "It's not worth it, but judging by your actions, it's worth it." So what about your decision? ”
Fang Xing's face was indifferent, and he replied lightly: "But I don't think you can do anything with them." ”
"I've had people ambushed by your companions beforehand, and I'll kill them all with a single order."
"You mean Kosha? That Mr.2? Fang Xing crossed his hands and dragged his head forward, his eyes lowered, as if a student was distracted and absent-minded during class.
Klockdahl was silent, Fang Xing's words made him realize that his plan had been revealed long before it was carried out, and his eyes were as gloomy as a storm approaching.
Robin on the side also showed a sudden look, no wonder Klockdahl had to hide something about the previous incident, because he had already had his own plan. After having Mr. 2 use the fruit ability to pretend to be Vivi to attack Kosha, and then have him disguise himself as the injured Kosha and hide in the camp. The reason why she was concealed was probably because of distrust. In Robin's view, Crocodale is a real individualist, who doesn't trust anyone, and what he hates most is deception.
"But things can be more interesting than you think." Fang Xing pointed at him, he looked at Klockdahl, and words like sharp knives came out of his mouth, "I'm afraid your order to Mr. 2 is to come to this city, and start after I leave." ”
Klockdahl's face was gloomy, and his mouth spat out a cold tone that was different from the weather, "Mr. 2 betrayed me? ”
"Who knows." Fang Xing shook his head, then jumped off the table, walked to the table with the fruit on the side, picked up the plate containing the fruit, and then walked back slowly.
Klockdahl wasn't a man to wait, and he seemed restless about anything, and this time was no exception, and he couldn't wait to ask, "What does that mean?" ”
"I've tried..."
Fang Xing said something that made Klockdahl puzzled, then sat down gently, and tasted the fruit brought and the fruit wine that came from nowhere, and tasted it again, muttering in his mouth, "It would be better if there was a barbecue to match." ”
……
"Ahem, ahem.."
The sound of a gentle cough alarmed Vivi in the room, making her aware of the man's awakening.
She walked to the head of the bed and looked at the man who was gradually opening his eyes. The first moment the man woke up, he focused his attention on the beautiful shadow on the side, and said with trembling lips and a voice as thin as a mosquito's chirping: "Weiwei... Princess? ”
"Yes, Kosha. How is your body? Vivi asked with concern while breathing a sigh of relief.
"My body is fine except that I am a little weak." After finishing speaking, Kosha turned his neck to look at the unfamiliar surroundings and asked, "Where is this?" ”
"It's a small hotel in the rain." Wei Wei said bluntly without concealing it, and asked on the other side, "What happened?" ”
Kosha propped up his hands and wanted to sit up, but Wei Wei reached out to help, but Chopper, who came over on the side, helped him up first, and at the same time explained before Wei Wei said: "You are a patient, your current condition is not enough to move casually, you have to lie down and rest." ”
However, when Chopper replied, he was out of breath.
Vivi put Chopper down, looked at it like this, and asked, "Chopper, you took care of Kosha all the way, didn't I let you go to rest?" Why did you start those movements instead? ”
Chopper replied with an embarrassed and reluctant reason: "I'm dissipating heat, this is the way reindeer dissipate heat!" ”
Vivi looked confused, and equally confused was Kosha, who asked strangely, "Vivi, is it... Your tanuki pet? ”
Chopper jumped up, "Didn't I say it's a reindeer?" And I'm not a pet! ”
Vivi smiled and comforted Chopper a few words, while explaining to Kosha, "This is Chopper, the doctor who healed you, its medical skills are very good, thanks to it, your injuries have not deteriorated." ”
"Is that so? Thank you so much. Kosha said gratefully.
"Bastard! Even if you praise me, I won't be happy. Chopper first looked happy as usual, and then went about his workout.
"It's this..?" Kosha asked.
"Uh..." Wei Wei couldn't understand Chopper's abnormality, so she had to follow what Chopper just said: "The way it dissipates heat, and who caused your injury?" ”
As if being recalled, Kosha's abdomen ached sharply, and he gritted his teeth in pain and said slowly, "You attacked me." Before Vivi could react, Kosha continued to say, "But I know it's not you!" ”
Vivi had a shocked expression, she attacked him?
"Can you elaborate on the situation?"
"You suddenly visited my camp, asked to meet alone, and then attacked me." Kosha briefly explained what had happened in three sentences.
"But I..."
Vivi tried to explain, but was interrupted by Kosha.
"I know, you didn't do this. For you, who cherish friendship so much, it is impossible to do that kind of thing. Kosha said with emotion.
“... It seems that someone has framed the rebels and the king's army to fight! Vivi said firmly.
"Who is that? Who would do such a thing? Kosha asked, confused.
"Baroque Workshops." Vivi said.
"What is the Baroque Workshop?" There was something strange in Kosha's eyes.
Vivi pondered for a moment, "This is an organization hidden under the kingdom of Alabastan, it is the source of the chaos in Alabastan over the years, and even the dancing fan incident where my father was framed was arranged by these people. And the boss behind these people, that is, the root of all evil, is the Seven Martial Seas, Klockdahl! ”
After saying this, Kosha's expression changed visibly.
"Wh.... What the! You say that the boss of the Baroque Workshop is Klokdahl? ”
"yes, it's hard to believe, isn't it? In fact, I didn't believe it until the person gave me a positive answer. At first, she thought that Klockdahl was the patron saint of the country and would expel the pirates who came to the country, but it was so unexpected, and he was the one who really caused damage to the country.
"I need you to help me explain this to the bewildered people." Vivi pleaded with Kosha.
But Kosha shook his head, "I can't do it, and I suggest you leave this country too, this country is hopeless." ”
Vivi's face changed drastically, and she shouted, "What do you mean by that! This is Alabastan, the country we live in! Chieftain! ”
It was the first time she had called out the word of the leader since they met, and her memories seemed to go back to the past, the Kosha who guarded him and loved the country at the same time.
"That's the Seven Martial Seas! is a group independent of the Navy. Kosha said slowly, "And the country has been almost eroded by the Baroque Workshops, and it is only a matter of moments before it is destroyed." ”
"How do you know?" Wei Wei finally realized what the problem was, and her body suddenly stepped back a few steps to widen the distance, and asked vigilantly, "Who are you?" ”
"Did you find out?" Kosha sighed, and his originally handsome cheeks instantly turned into a man's face with makeup, a shemale face to be exact. After the transformation was completed, the man introduced, "I'm Mr. 2, von Clay to be exact. ”
Mr.2?
Vivi's complexion changed dramatically, and the meaning of her natural word in the Baroque Workshop Society. It's a high-level agent! So what he came here for, and how he hid into Kosha.
Vivi remembered the abnormal Chopper, but when she looked back, she found that Chopper had stood by her side at some point, and her body had changed from a young state to a human form.
"Chopper, you already knew?" Vivi asked.
Chopper nodded, "I know, Fang Xing has already told me in advance, and I'm not good at hiding things, so he asked me to keep my body in use, so I won't expose anything." ”
The two looked at Mr. 2 vigilantly.
"Since Fang Xing has seen it, he will always be prepared." Vivi said.
Chopper shook his head, "He just confessed this sentence, telling me not to expose it, and didn't say anything else." ”
"And what about Valpo?" Vivi asked.
"Looks like I'm out looking for something to eat." Chopper said.
Vivi looked at Mr. 2 with a wary expression, she didn't think that Chopper and she alone would be able to defeat Mr. 2, an agent who was at the top of the Baroque Workshop.
But at this time, Feng and Clay said, "Don't be nervous. Although my mission is to kill you, I am not ready to carry out the mission. ”
"Huh?" Vivi understands the importance of her mission in the Baroque Workshop, how could this almost top-notch agent say such a thing, did she hear it wrong? Or is it the other party's preparation to let his guard down?
"The friendship you have shown to Kosha has touched me, and the bond between you has been wonderful. And my injuries are real, you can be regarded as saving me, although I am not a good person, but I am not the kind of person who will forget my kindness. "Feng. Clay explained.
Chopper nodded at this point, "His injuries are indeed real. ”
Vivi was a little surprised by this inexplicable unfolding, but she still didn't want to believe it.
"Let's go, the boss has arranged more than just a killer for me."
……
Before Fang Xing could eat the fruit in his mouth, a sandstorm had already penetrated the square table and swept straight over. However, the moment this wind and sand touched Fang Xing, it was bounced back again, and Fang Xing also swallowed the fruit in his mouth smoothly, revealing an extremely happy expression.
"Your plan is indeed perfect, even I didn't expect you to be so insidious, but you didn't count people's hearts." Fang Xing looked at Klockdahl, who had a blue expression, and said.
Klockdahl's face darkened, "People's hearts? That kind of thing is the darkest thing in the world. According to you, Mr. 2 will betray me, but so what, I didn't believe him in the first place. ”
"Have you arranged a backhand?" Fang Xing showed a clever expression, "Me too." ”
