Chapter 228: Casino Hostage
The official looked Huang Ming up and down, and asked in Mandarin, which also had a local accent.
"You said you got a call to ransom someone? Which casino do you recognize to call you? ”。
"Which casino? I don't know, I just answered a phone call asking me to bring money here to redeem people, this big brother is the leader, in fact, you don't need to be so suspicious, I'm just a person, there's no need to worry."
"We're not worried about you, we're worried about what you're bringing money."
"Big brother laughed, I'm here to redeem people, how dare I come if I don't bring money? But I have to make sure my friend isn't here? As long as he's here, I'll be able to call you right away."
"Call us? What do you mean with cash? ”。
The official frowned.
"Big brother, I have to pay 500,000 yuan, if all of it is exchanged for cash, what if there is an accident on the road? So for safety, I'm carrying a card."
"What are you carrying? The card is too troublesome, we only accept cash, if you bring a card, then you can only pay in the casino, but you can rest assured, as long as you pay, we will definitely release people."
"Going to the casino to pay? Well, that's fine, but I'll have to make sure my friend isn't here, what if I make a mistake? ”。
Huang Ming patiently continued to make up, he had to confirm Lao Li's situation.
The official looked at Huang Ming carefully, and finally nodded.
"Okay, it's okay to show you a look, but you'd better play tricks, let's go, then enter Ke to recognize a Ha person."
After that, Huang Ming followed these people into the small courtyard.
The courtyard was small and there was nothing in it, except for a stone table in the center, and only a row of chairs of the kind used in the cafeteria under each of the two courtyard walls, and two other militants carrying AK47s on their backs.
"Bring out all the people in the house and let this brother see it."
The official commanded.
"Yes".
One of the militants, sitting in a row of chairs, quickly ran to the second floor and opened several rooms.
As soon as the door was opened, the militant yelled.
"Come out and stand in a line next to me."
So the people in the room came out one after another, and stood in a row in the outer corridor on the second floor.
"Lao Li, Lao Li, isn't it you? Answer me if so! ”。
Huang Ming shouted at a man in the crowd who was beaten into a pig's head, this guy looked a lot like Lao Li.
"Nani? Is it you? It's me, it's me, I'm Lao Li, lose me, you lose me."
Lao Li's mouth has been swollen into steamed buns, and his speech is leaky, and when he sees Huang Ming, tears flow out.
The people next to him also began to get excited, crying and crying, and suddenly they became a mess.
"Okay, you've seen it, bring it all back."
The official waved his hand.
The people upstairs, including Lao Li, were immediately driven back to the room, and one of them walked too slowly and was "snapped" with an AK47 by the militant who went to open the door.
"Okay brother, the people upstairs are from the three casinos, your friend is from the Venetian Hotel, you can pay that little bit, as long as you pay, we will release the person when we get a call."
After the official finished speaking, he waved his hand at Huang Ming, signaling that Huang Ming could leave.
Huang Ming hesitated, he wanted to use force directly, but suddenly had an idea.
Since Lao Li was imprisoned because he owed gambling debts, wouldn't he be rescued by going to the casino to win the money back? After all, once force is used, some things are not easy to explain to Lao Li.
Huang Ming made a decision.
"Okay, then I'll go to the casino and pay, but who do I go to the casino? And what should I say? ”。
"You look for the lobby manager in the casino, and say that you are here to gamble on the big head, this is the code word of the casino, the big head is the head, they will recognize it when they hear it, and they will tell you to do it."
"To gamble on the big head is to redeem people? Well, okay, but I paid for it, are you really going to release them? ”。
Huang Ming deliberately pretended to be a little suspicious and asked.
He was afraid that his indifference would arouse the suspicion of these people, and if these people transferred people after he left, it would be troublesome.
"Brother, we are just a partnership with the casino, they pay for us to guard, as long as you pay, we will release people immediately, you don't have to worry about this, we still have a good reputation."
"Okay, then I'll go to the casino and pay now, and you're going to release people."
After Huang Ming finished speaking, he nodded at the official, and then left the small courtyard.
Huang Ming didn't go directly to the casino, he stayed in the dark for a while after leaving the courtyard, wanting to confirm whether what the middle-aged man said was true.
After waiting for more than half an hour, seeing that there was still no movement in the small courtyard, Huang Ming was relieved.
It seems that the official did not lie, and then flew to the city center with a flying magic weapon in a no-man's land.
Descending to the ground in a dark place in the city, Huang Ming took a motorcycle and came to the Venetian Hotel.
The Venetian Hotel here is said to be modeled after the Venetian Hotel in Macau, and all the decoration style and business items are no different from Macau.
Some people even say that this casino originally had a stake in The Venetian Macao, but of course, these are just legends and have not been confirmed.
After entering the casino, Huang Ming didn't go to the lobby manager, he went to the service desk to change a thousand yuan in chips.
He had to win enough money before he could ransom people, after all, the wool had to be on the sheep, and it was impossible for him to pay for it himself.
After turning around the casino several times with chips, Huang Ming didn't know what to play, he had never entered the casino.
Although I have watched the movie and have a certain understanding of the various ways to play in the casino, after all, I have not played it, and I am still a little weak.
After wandering around for a long time, Huang Ming came to a roulette table that he felt he could control.
He has seen this kind of play in movies, there are many small boxes with numbers written in the roulette wheel, and as soon as the roulette wheel turns, the sieve inside will beat, and after the roulette wheel stops, where the sieve stops, there will be corresponding multiples.
In order to save time, Huang Ming picked a maximum multiple bet, he can't change cards at will as shown in the movie, but he can use his mind to control the direction of the sieve, so he won the bet.
After three or four moves, Huang Ming's chips changed from 1,000 to more than 100,000.
He studed again and again, putting the biggest multiplier in the handle, and his action caused the surprise of fellow gamblers, many of whom had already placed bets with him.
"Wow, hit again, brother, are you possessed by the God of Gamblers, how can you hit all the tricks?".
"Brother God of Gamblers, what kind of bet is there? Or bet on the maximum multiplier? We're betting with you."
The gamblers at this table were so excited that they followed Huang Ming to place bets.
However, their commotion immediately attracted the attention of the casino security guards, and two black and strong men came behind Huang Ming.
