Chapter 0336 - Infiltrating the Mansion
Pippen is rich and ostentatious, so he will hold a grand event like the Gambling Conference in the city, that is, he does not hesitate to invite everyone to play with him, but none of this matters, the purpose of Guan Heng's visit tonight is to win their family's ancestral pure gold family crest as Gray.
"Besides, I didn't expect this Jacques to be quite good at taking advantage of people." Guan Heng suddenly smiled slightly: "He actually entrusted me to investigate some other things with Pippen." β
In the territory of the eastern county of the Kawulu Kingdom, there is often an active force, this organization is notorious for hiring killers and plundering ordinary people, known as the "poisonous wolf".
It has been rumored that the poisonous wolf organization has colluded with some local nobles in Dongjun, because of the information and covert protection of these nobles, so the army of the Kawulu Kingdom has not been able to exterminate them, but these are just rumors, and there has been no official evidence.
So someone handed over the task of investigating the inside story of the "poisonous wolf" to the intelligence organization of the Black Feather Crow, and this time, the target of the Black Feather Crow's investigation has faintly pointed to a lord in the East County, that is, the father of Pippen Gongzi.
In the past few days since Pippen arrived in Digong City, the Black Feather Raven's people have been secretly spying on him, but in this small place, there are no masters who can sneak into Pippen's side to do an in-depth investigation.
But Guan Heng's appearance gave Jacques, the person in charge of the Black Feather Raven Stronghold, an opportunity, and Jacques asked Guan Heng to investigate Pippen's son and the people around him at this gambling conference, anyway, it was easy to do it, and there was no need to take too much risk, so Guan Heng readily agreed.
At this moment, the gate of the mansion was already full of attendants, and began to greet the guests who came to participate in the high gambling conference.
In the alley, Guan Hengzhuan instantly used the enchantment effect of the incarnation mask to transform into Gray's appearance, swaggering with the invitation in his hand, and blending into the mansion where the gambling conference was held without any suspense.
After entering the door, I saw that the hall was already filled with dozens of tables, dazzling all kinds of gamblers' games, whether it was cards, dice or guessing the number of stalls, everything, the waiters with drinks and food in their hands, in the crowd of people endlessly.
One by one, the gamblers rushed to their favorite tables like red-eyed soldiers on the battlefield and began to gamble with a lot of money.
Guan Heng found a corner where no one was, first took off the incarnation mask and put it in his arms, because the time limit for the mask to be disguised was only fifteen minutes, and it should be used when facing Pippen Gongzi, anyway, the scene in the gambling hall is very chaotic now, and no one pays attention to Guan Heng's face.
At the front desk, he changed a thick stack of chips, and in front of a few cards and dice tables, Guan Heng casually pressed two or three bets, and gradually felt a little impatient, thinking of the purpose of this trip, he grabbed a waiter with a tray in his hand.
"Hey, I'll ask you." Guan Heng deliberately pretended to be extremely arrogant and said to the waiter: "Where is my good friend, Pippen?" Why can't you see this kid now, the reason why Lao Tzu came here tonight is to have a good gamble with him. β
"It turns out that this young master is a friend of Pippen's son." Seeing Guan Heng's extraordinary bearing and even more arrogant expression, the waiter immediately said with a smile on his face: "You may not know when you first came that the guests downstairs are just ordinary gamblers, and the VIPs of Pippen are all entertained in ten independent private rooms on the second floor. β
"As soon as you go up to the second floor, there will be an attendant to guide you to the private room where there is a vacant seat, and besides, Pippen has some mundane affairs in the city." The waiter then said to Guan Heng: "So he has ordered us in advance, saying that we will not come to the gambling conference until after nine o'clock in the evening. β
"I see, Lao Tzu understands." Guan Heng shouted with a big grin, picked up a glass of wine in the tray casually, raised his neck and drank it, and threw a few gold coins to the waiter: "Reward your kid, get out!" β
"Yes, yes, thank you for this young master." The waiter took the gold coin and his mouth was crooked, and he hurriedly said: "I wish you good luck tonight, young master, and win the gold and silver mountains." β
After saying that, the waiter turned his head and ran, as if he was afraid that Guan Heng would snatch the gold coins back, Guan Heng was angry and laughed: "It's really an eye for money, you kid is easy to dismiss." β
Looking at the wall clock on the wall of the hall, the time on it, it was already half past eight, Guan Heng knew that Pippen should arrive in a while, he rolled his eyes, remembered what Jacques said to himself, and decided to sneak into the gambler's room to investigate.
This mansion originally belonged to the residence of a wealthy merchant in Digong City, but according to the information of the Black Feather Raven, half a month ago, the rich merchant suddenly disappeared for no reason, and Pippen bought the mansion from the widow of the rich merchant at a low price, and since then, this has become his residence in Digong City.
Before coming here, Guan Heng had seen the floor plan of the mansion given to him by Jacques, and he knew that it was a private room for entertaining VIPs, the third floor was where the entourage and butler lived, and the fourth floor was where Pippen himself lived, where there was an extremely large living room.
"Well, it seems that climbing up the roof from the exterior wall to the rooftop on the fourth floor should be an ideal shortcut, because if you take the stairs, you will definitely alarm the entourage and servants." Guan Heng stood at the edge of the garden at this time, looked up at the four-story faΓ§ade and muttered, "Let's start climbing up now......
"Rustling ......" At this moment, Guan Heng suddenly heard the sound of a whisper in the grass in the garden behind him, he frowned slightly, and quickly dodged and hid in a dark corner, at this time, behind the low trees in the grass, a man's voice whispered sounded.
"Why are you here now?" The male voice said with a bit of annoyance, "I've been waiting for you for more than an hour. β
"I'm sorry, dear." A young woman's voice echoed, "The kitchen is so busy right now that I can't come out to meet you until now." β
"Forget it, I don't blame you." The man's voice turned soft: "It took a lot of effort for me to get in from the back door of the mansion pretending to be a handyman carrying things, just to meet you, we have been spending less time together recently, and I miss you very much." β
"Honey, I miss you too." The young cook suddenly cried and whimpered in a low voice: "You were supposed to be the deputy head of this mansion, but it was because I talked about you everywhere that they kicked you out." β
