Chapter 373: Childhood Shadows
Sure enough, just like Deborah said, his cousin was not only born a few years earlier than her, but the key is that he has much more support from the family, not to mention that the start-up capital is rich enough, and he directly gave away a few long-term big businesses as soon as he opened, and winning or losing a million dollars is nothing.
In contrast, even Deborah, who is now making some money with Locke, is not completely unfeeling about winning or losing a million, after all, she has gone to great lengths to let Locke take her to make money together, and how much she has earned in the first one.
At this time, Locke felt that the pattern of winning 1.8 million pocket money he wanted yesterday was too small, and he had to multiply it at least tenfold. ”
……
"Mr. Locke wins!"
“……”
"Come on, come on, it's almost time to play, let's have a drink."
But after a while, seeing that Carrot had unknowingly lost fifteen million, which was no longer a decimal for them, Joel, who was beside Carrot, hurriedly gave him a ladder to go down.
Karot is not a person who knows what to do, so he seized the opportunity and slid down directly: "Today's luck is really bad, let's come to the bar." ”
Locke couldn't insist on continuing either, gave Leonard a regretful look, put away the chips, and let the casino exchange them for the funds in the account.
There was supposed to be a dinner party next, but Locke didn't want to continue to stimulate Carrot Youying, so he and Fleur left, and the group found a restaurant to settle the dinner first.
After all, in just half an hour, Locke won 15 million against Carrot Youying, and the other two also lost at least 5 million.
Leonard is also very satisfied, although it is inconspicuous compared to Locke, he also won more than two million, which is comparable to the previous years of hard work, and it is really a wave of fat.
As a professional gambler, if he dares to sweep away so much in a casino in Las Vegas in one night, it is not as simple as being blacklisted, and he may not even wait for a warning, and he will directly become a member of countless missing people.
After having dinner together, Caroline proposed to go to the banquet hall on the first floor to watch the show, and it was really not pleasant to gamble with Locke and chat with the women just now.
Locke didn't stop it, nodded in agreement, and the group got up and prepared to leave the restaurant, and it was at this time that Locke's intuition told him that something had happened.
Along with the intuition, it was the strange voice I heard earlier!
Before Locke could use the spirit scan to probe the cruise ship, the next moment.
"Boom!"
A violent impact appeared, causing the entire cruise ship to shake violently, and everyone who was still standing fell with great force.
"Shet, don't panic!" Feeling the shaking deck, Locke quickly helped Fleur and the others stabilize their bodies, and then confirmed the reason through a mental scan.
"A big octopus from the bottom of the sea? No wonder it wasn't discovered before. ”
I didn't think that the danger might come from the sea creatures on the bottom of the sea, and after Locke noticed the abnormal sound, he had been scanning the cruise ship for any danger, but naturally found nothing, and the danger detection confirmed that there would be no fatal danger, so he put it aside first.
It wasn't until now that the big octopus from the bottom of the sea hit the cruise ship from the bottom of the sea, and he knew the source of the uncomfortable feeling before.
While scolding in his heart, Locke comforted several girls, especially Caroline, compared to Ashley, who had experienced a lot of things, Caroline was the most panicked at this time.
Under Locke's comfort, the girls gradually regained their composure, but the other passengers were visibly panicked, and everyone scattered in panic, looking for a 'possible safe' place to hide, and Locke's side could hear the obvious sounds of various screams.
But this scene seems to be somewhat familiar, there are big octopuses on the cruise ship, how can the more I think about it, the more it looks like the shadow of my childhood. ’
I didn't think about it carefully before, but now combined with my memory, I suddenly remembered the movie "Extreme Cold" I watched when I was a child in my previous life.
"Shet, what the hell is going on?" Leonard asked, pushing the chair that was pressing on him and standing up with his forehead in his hands.
"It must have hit something, such a violent impact, the damage will not be small, maybe the ship may sink." Leonard was an outsider after all, and Locke didn't say anything directly about the big octopus, just ordinary speculation.
Leonard looked at Locke, who was as calm as he said when he said this, without any fear, and the horror in his heart was also suppressed a little.
At the same time, he also sighed that it is no wonder that he can break into such a big career at a young age, this is not simply because of luck, inheriting the family fund can be explained, under normal circumstances, ordinary young people in the United States suddenly inherit the inheritance, and it is normal to lose the family property.
"It's not a good idea to stay here, so let's get the captain to check with the captain first."
After figuring out what was going on, Locke didn't worry, for ordinary people, that big octopus was indeed a very ruthless and dangerous monster, but for Locke, it was just like that, even if he couldn't exert his full strength because of the transplantation of bloodline, he could still do it with a single stroke of magic.
But after thinking about it, he didn't want to kill the big guy directly, took out his satellite phone, and contacted Lorraine.
"Sir!" Lorraine said on the other end of the phone: "I will immediately contact Canton and the crew on the cruise ship to confirm the situation, this is likely to be done by Canton, and then I will arrange the action......"
"This situation has nothing to do with Canton." "It was a big octopus from the bottom of the ocean that hit the cruise ship and seemed to be going to make dinner for all the passengers on the ship," Locke said. ”
"What?!" Lorraine was a little confused by the sudden explanation.
"There is always something in this world that is beyond the common sense of ordinary people." Locke said
This sentence reminded Lorraine of her previous performance in Brazil, when Locke snatched back the blood orchid alone, and then she asked, "Then what should I do next?" ”
"Since there has been an unexpected change, then there is no need to carry out the original plan, you go and kill Karot You Ying first, he should still be on the fifth floor now, and then when your people arrive, leave first, and the cruise ship will be handed over to me."
"Yes, sir." Lorraine hung up the phone, quickly took out the walkie-talkie, and urgently contacted his subordinates on the cruise ship to arrange tasks.
At the same time, the big octopus from the deep sea had already begun to enjoy his dinner at this time, and the first to suffer were the passengers hiding in the toilet, because most of the discharge pipes of the toilet were directly connected to the sea, and the tentacles of the big octopus could just swallow these passengers into their tentacles along these official roads.
