Chapter 2: Good luck and bad luck
The night in the heart of the Vatican is the final stop of the bustle, and today the weather is fine, but Ford is still fulfilling his obligations as a horse-drawn carriage driver, and he is constantly on the move. Although a series of not-so-rosy things have happened recently, he is ready to continue to do it.
The first customer of the evening was the young man he had seen earlier, Kikke, who would rather buy a lottery ticket than pay for his full car. He must have been very happy to win so much money, and when Ford habitually looked behind him, the other party was already so surprised that he came directly at him.
"Sir! No...... My lord! ”
"Hmm...... It's a little disgusting that you're courting me like that......" Ford leaned forward a little, "Guest, where are you going?" ”
"Go to Daisy Street." Kirk smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll give enough money this time." ”
The carriage started immediately, and looked at Ford, who was a little overwhelmed in front of him, and was a little incoherent with joy: "Oh, it's really ...... Should I say you're my savior? ”
"A lifesaver?" Ford wondered.
"Of course it didn't get to that point."
Ford didn't know that the numbers he had reported earlier had won Kicke: "What the hell is it?" ”
"Your Excellency, you have changed my life! In other words, God! Kick happened to see the flyer inside the carriage, "Ah, isn't this a mysterious kiss?" Is it not you, master, God......"
"My name is Ford."
"Lord Ford, are you also obsessed with mystical kisses?"
"Well...... Ford couldn't explain the reason to him, "sort of." ”
"Aha! It's really Ford-sama! Kirk said happily.
"What the hell did I do......"
Kirk leaned his head mysteriously: "Actually, I won the lottery, using the number that Master Ford told me!" ”
And Ford just said flatly: "Really, it's amazing." ”
"It's so bland, it's too bland!"
Ford shook his head and said, "After all, it's just a string of numbers that I just said." ”
"Because you didn't hear how much money I won!" Kirk stared at him seriously, "It's 20 million gold coins!" ”
Ford turned his head in surprise and said, "Really? ”
"Really, I haven't claimed my prize yet." Kirk smiled and leaned into the back seat of the carriage, "But it's been confirmed a hundred times." ”
"If it's true, then it's best not to tell anyone else."
"In reality, it's the first time I've told someone in person...... Sure enough, I still have to report to Lord Ford. ”
"In reality, you say?"
"I told someone in a newspaper, but after all, it's just a small newspaper, and the secrets that one person hides are always heavy." Kirk said, "I just want to say it, I want to say it!" ”
"Then you can buy the disc of the mysterious kiss." Before Ford finished speaking, he was startled by Kirk, who was stealing the words from behind.
"yes, I'm waiting for the song disc to go and claim the prize, and now I carry it with me."
"Hey, don't lose ......"
Kirk continued, "I also want to do something to thank Lord Ford. ”
"Not really." Ford decisively refused.
Instead, Kirk shook his head vigorously and said, "No, no, no! Absolutely not! Are you short of money? ”
"It doesn't seem to be lacking."
"Is your family or an important person short of money?"
Norma immediately appeared in Ford's mind, but he still paused and said, "No." ”
"And how desireless are you...... Do you have time now, Lord Ford? ”
"As you can see, it's clearly work...... Ford pouted.
laughed, "I'll pay you for what you can see today, so come with me." ”
Ford changed his destination under Kikke's instructions, and the scenery on the side of the road gradually became more dazzling, and Ford, who was a little puzzled, had to fulfill his duties as a driver after all, and sent him to a nightclub called "White Rose" without saying a word.
"Not really......" Ford was dragged out of the car by Kik, he didn't really want to stay in this place for long.
Kirk smiled and gestured to Ford to come in: "I'm working as a waiter in this nightclub, Lord Ford doesn't want anything, I'll give me a permanent free coupon here." ”
"Huh? I don't really need ......" Before he could finish speaking, he was taken by Kikra to the middle of a box full of beautiful women.
There are only a few forms of entertainment offered by nightclubs, and the ones that cannot be missing are the good-looking escort girls, who decorate their graceful posture in a fancy way, in this way to win the favor of customers and get a good tip to live.
"This is a distinguished guest, Lord Ford!" In the blink of an eye, changed into the nightclub waiter's costume, "He's already paid, please order whatever you want." ”
As soon as these words were finished, all the escort girls laughed without exception, and they said in unison: "So handsome! It's amazing! What did Mr. Ford drink? ”
Ford looked very embarrassed: "No...... I'm going to drive. ”
"Can we drink?" A wine lady said expectantly.
Ford nodded, and all the remaining women cheered, and the clinking of glasses on the wine table rose repeatedly, and all sorts of precious liquor were brought up, and they were rapidly consumed at an extremely rapid rate. Ford took advantage of the chaos to break away from the crowd and ran to the bathroom, a slightly secluded corner.
But it didn't take long for his whereabouts to be discovered by the perceptive Kik: "Lord Ford, where are you going?" ”
"That's enough, I'm going back." Ford said with a squint.
"Alright, alright, don't say that!" Kirk laughed, "Enjoy it again......"
Ford finally found an excuse to go to the bathroom to avoid the limelight, and he looked at himself in the mirror and sighed slowly. He subconsciously took out the communicator in his pocket and opened it to see that it was full of calls from Norma, but he didn't answer them. And his latest message to her is "Don't have anything to do with me anymore".
There should be no more follow-ups. Presumably. The fate between the two of us is over, and if you get any closer to me, you will most likely be swept into this vortex. Ford thought this as he stared at the communicator in his hand, his face gradually crumpled together, as if someone was pinching his arm fiercely, and it was uncomfortable.
Ford was startled by the sudden gunshots outside the door, and after a brief lapse of consciousness, he suddenly noticed that the noisy music outside had suddenly stopped. Other words......
A scruffy man with a skull mask was standing on the largest table in the nightclub, the mouth of the fire gun in his hand was constantly leaking a faint white smoke, and the smell of gunpowder suddenly filled the wide room, like an illusory big hand, carrying the hearts of everyone present.
"Ahh
Ford was also terrified, and the toilet door was slammed open, causing him to startle and fall backwards to the ground.
"What the hell is going on?" Ford swallowed, sweating coldly.
Kick leaned his back against the bathroom door and said softly, "A man with a gun walked in and shot the stereo......"
"Handcuffs?" Ford's legs were still a little weak.
Kirk immediately crouched on the ground, pulled up Ford and whispered, "Lord Ford, please escape through the back door!" You can't see the back door from the hall! ”
The skeletal masked man in the hall looked around the empty ground through the dim light, dragging his body like a walking corpse to the bathroom where the two were located.
