"How's Xiren doing?"

Catherine's eyes became a little strange: "It's alive." / "Although it looks like a Barley Town rabbit (a rabbit with black spots).

"Her abilities are very special, as long as they are well maintained and expanded, they will be a very good weapon." Anthony. "If I were a decision-maker, I would use the Ebola variant with a longer incubation period, at least for a month or more — hopefully your leader, I mean, the real leader did it on purpose, not because of negligence and forgot about it — even a small team that was 'messing around' on the streets to buy and sell small packages of drugs or pimping would not allow an 'outsider' to step into their vital position in such a short period of time, let alone 'Samael,'" and the white, small teeth were "colored" in Las Vegas Colorful night sky sparkles: "This should be a warning - 'Samael' has been playing too big lately, the big one is annoying, buzzing. He made a gesture, as if to drive away a swarm of annoying flies: "Okay, it seems impossible to catch them all, but it is still very convenient to let them suffer a small loss, I believe that in the future, 'Samael' will not be so blatantly searching for supernatural people, who knows if the next target will be a virus culture medium?" ”

Oh, Catherine didn't seem to think so much, the expression on her face was indescribable, Dr. Hopkins admired everything in front of him with great interest, he liked this, Catherine and his deceased wife, that is, Catherine, resembled more than just appearances, their feelings were equally abundant and easy to "expose", like lettuce "exposed" outside a pancake, which could be bitten with one mouth, crunchy, and the ghoul calmly made himself a glass of mokit, one with syrup, A liqueur made with rum and mint leaves (there are even fresh mint leaves in the hidden cocktail bar), he didn't mash the mint leaves, but put them in his mouth. Along with the fear, disgust, and anxiety of one of the right-hand members of the "Agency", he stuffed it between his teeth and chewed it slowly.

Catherine was silent for a few minutes, followed by a deliberate deep breath, "Tell the truth, Hopkins," she said dryly, "I don't know if it's a coincidence, but the 'head' did give me instructions - a little fish that slipped through the net, he's in Las Vegas, and we must close the net before he finds out and escapes - but this, well, it's different here than anywhere else." Las Vegas has its own laws and rules, and even the local police department is reluctant to get involved with an unfamiliar outside organization without the permission of a local gangster. ”

"What's more, this organization is quite righteous." Dr. Hopkins said sympathetically, "Wild beasts don't like traps and traps. ”

Catherine took a deep breath, "We need you to do me a favor." ”

"I thought I had helped." Hopkins said.

Catherine's face had become very bad, they did take advantage of Hopkins, so she was able to stand here, Sean. Having lived in Las Vegas for nearly fifty years, Battier is not an idiot and would not casually send an unknown outsider into his beloved cottage.

"It's okay." "I don't really mind this," Hopkins said kindly, "you're Sasha's aunt after all, but I think I can at least know a little bit more before I can decide what happens next—you need to know." I don't like to work two jobs at the same time. ”

"It has something to do with that job, too." Catherine said: "Our clue ended up with Ivan? Sergeyevich. ”

Sean. In fact, there are only nine villas in Battier, and there is a pure white "colored" building named the Ten Heavens (Heavenly Sphere), which is a small casino for "VIPs" to gamble privately. Here, they are able to avoid the laws of Las Vegas and some uncomfortable dark rules, and of course, relatively, it also has its own threshold, the first, the most important and the main one, you have to bring benefits to the owner of the building, very big benefits.

The minimum chips here are 100 yuan, and the black "color" is inlaid with 24k pure gold wire. Wu Baiyuan's chips are "milky" white "color", and they are also inlaid with gold threads (this is the same as the casinos outside), and the 1,000 yuan chips are bright red "color", inlaid with two circles of gold wires, and the highest value of the chips is as high as 10,000 yuan each, made of sterling silver, the surface is gold-plated, and it is heavy in the hand.

"Ivan never bets with the first time, or with people who don't know much about it." Sean. "He likes to gamble with people who are lucky and a little bit smart, he doesn't even mind losing a little bit first, he knows how to get people to be impulsive and gamble," Battier said. He is also very observant when someone has lost too much and has the intention of quitting. He'll go back a little; He likes to wear a dress with wide pockets, never stacks chips in front of him, beats his chest when he loses, shouts loudly, appears in pain, and doesn't say a word when he wins — to give the illusion that he doesn't seem to win much, even though the opposite is true. To be honest, if he wasn't from the north, I would have paid a lot of money to dig him into my casino. ”

"What is he good at? Craps, roulette or something else? ”

"Baccarat Solitaire," Sean. "Like you," said Battier, "this is probably the fastest money to come in — I mean, as gamblers, we can't when the others refuse to follow up, and as long as he's still in that chair, we're going to have to gamble with him one by one." ”

"How many each?"

"A thousand dollars." The owner of the casino "revealed" a painful look: "But he has paid up to 100,000 yuan each." ”

"A man who dares to take risks."

Battier shook his head, "I don't think so," he said, "he must have a way to cheat, but we can't find it." My dear friend, I hope you can expose him, and if you can't, then see if you can get the money back from him. He paused: "I know it's a bit difficult, but I don't force it, you can withdraw at any time, the money you lose is mine, and if you win, as I said before, a tenth of it will be yours." ”

"I can try," Hopkins said, "is he still in Las Vegas?" ”

"He lives on Martian days," Battier exhaled sullenly, "I still have to offer him free vodka and women, an energetic bastard, he asks for a maximum of five women at a time, and I pay a full three thousand dollars for it!" But there is no way to get even a dollar back from him! He waved his hands, "He's obviously carrying two women!" He can totally play on his own! But he just can't get along with me! ”

"If you can't," he said gloomily, "I'll have to take the risk—I'll have to kill him, there's always a way." Of course," he said, looking at Hopkins, "my greatest hope is in you, my dear friend, and I will never forget how you won the seventy-five thousand, and I almost became a neighbor of the cactus." ”

He thought for a moment: "But I think you should not appear in front of Baccarat or Blackjack in the first place, you can try roulette and craps first, he seems to prefer the latter two, although his luck does not extend to them, but he is often looking for prey in these two places, especially those who are winning, he seems to like to deal with fools who are immersed in happiness and joy, he will behave generously and friendly, but also a little clumsy and forgetful, But when you want to take advantage of him, you find that you have been kicked into hell by him. ”

"By the way," added Battier, "you also have to bring a female companion, Ivan likes a woman who belongs to someone else." I'll try to arrange one for you, and you can use this to hook him if necessary. ”

"Oh," said Hopkins, "I think I've got a better fit for that." ”
