Chapter 50: Spotting the Deception
In the hall of Hongyun Casino, Wang Yan stared at Yueting and Yueyu with a gloomy face, and saw that the two of them were furious in their hearts, and the happiness brought by winning suddenly disappeared.
"Have you made enough trouble, come back with us!" Wang Yan's voice was unusually cold, and in the surprised eyes of everyone, he turned around and left.
"Let's go. Zhou Shan knew that Wang Yan was really angry this time, and he didn't mean to protect Yueting and Yueyu anymore.
"If you don't let you play, forget it, you can use such a fierce scare to scare people. Yueyu grabbed the silver ticket she had won and re-held it in her hand, venting her dissatisfaction in a very low voice.
Zhou Shan seemed to glance at Yueyu perceptively, but didn't say anything, just grabbed her arm, dragged her away from the gambling table, and followed behind Wang Yan.
Dong Yun also hurriedly pulled Yueting, followed closely behind, and communicated with Yueting in a whisper.
"Your actions just now are too conspicuous, I haven't heard of anyone, who can win nearly 10,000 taels of silver in such a short period of time, you look at the eyes of those gamblers around you, you can understand what greed is. Dong Yun kindly reminded Yueting.
"Sister, I don't want to do that, it's just that my sister saw that my method was feasible, and she was a little impulsive, and I didn't control her for a while, which caused the situation just now. Yueting explained their unintentional behavior.
"In any case, your actions must have attracted the attention of those with ulterior motives, which is why Wang Yan is angry. You should understand that he has important things to do, and he doesn't want to make trouble. Dong Yun said as she paid attention to the gamblers around her, secretly remembering the appearance of those gamblers who had been staring at them in case of accidents.
"Sister, we'll be careful in the future. Yueting also noticed that some gamblers looked at them in a way that was not quite right, and greed and evil coexisted.
The five of them quickly walked through the crowd in the lobby of the casino, left the hall, and walked towards the garden of the accommodation.
"The guest officer stayed. Just as Wang Yan and the others had just arrived at the garden, a voice came from behind them that stopped them.
Hear the sound, stop, and turn back vigilantly. The five of them saw Wu Tong, the attendant who had led them here to rest just now, and walked over from behind.
"Five guest officers, disturbed. In line with the principle of thinking about all the guests, we will provide a free meal to all the guests staying in the hotel. Originally, seeing that the five guest officers were in a hurry to rest, I didn't mention this matter to the guest officers. Just now, when I saw the two girls in the hall having a good time, I realized my negligence, and hastened to inform that a meal had been prepared for the guests, and that I would like to come and enjoy it now. Wu Tong came to Wang Yan and apologized very politely.
"Is there such a thing?" Wang Yan's first thought was that it was impossible, the people in the casino must have seen that Yueting and Yueyu had won too much silver, and wanted to go back through this method.
"This is the first time for the guest officer to come to our Hongyun Casino, of course, I don't know the principle of our hospitality. But I am the attendant here, receiving a few guest officers, and I must do what we ask the casino to do, and I dare not be slack. Otherwise, if you are told by the boss, you will lose your job. Wu Tong smiled and explained the reason for this.
"It's not the first time I've been here, why don't I know that there is such a thing in Lu Dao?" Dong Yun asked on the side. She had followed the people in her family to the Fortune Casino, and she had not heard of what Wu Tong mentioned.
"This girl has been here? That's great. As you know, in the lobby of the casino, there is a special place for free meals for guests who come to play. As long as the guest officer is willing, he can go to pick up the food at any time, which is very convenient. Wu Tong reminded.
"I know. Dong Yun nodded at Wang Yan, indicating that Wu Tong was not lying. This is a well-known fact for anyone who has been to Fortune Casino.
"We treat all our guests the same and don't give preference to one over the other. Guests who participate in the play are entitled to free meals, and guests who come to stay are treated in the same way. Wu Tong further explained, hoping to dispel Wang Yan's doubts.
"Why is it free?" Yue Ting was curious and a little incomprehensible. So many people eat and drink for free, isn't it a loss-making deal, is the owner of the casino a fool?
"The girl didn't know that the so-called wool came from the sheep. When we do this, we have already done so. ”
Wu Tong seemed to have accidentally leaked his mouth and explained the reason for providing free meals.
"Your boss is so shrewd, fame and fortune, no wonder business is so prosperous. Yue Ting looked relieved.
"I saw a few guest officers, mostly women, who had prepared their meals in a quiet box, so as not to embarrass the girls by eating in the hall. Wu Tong took all factors into account, in order to reflect the service tenet of Hongyun Liby for the guest officer.
"Thank you for your kindness. We still have to rest for now, so that we won't trouble you. The king was unmoved, but still politely refused.
"Guest officer, the small ones are old and the ones are small. If I lose this job because of this, I am afraid that my life will not be sustainable. Wu Tong begged for embarrassment.
"No, it won't. If your boss blames you, we'll explain everything and excuse you. Zhou Shan finally spoke, dispelling Wu Tong's concerns.
"Thank you for your kindness. It's just that everything we do, we keep a record. As soon as the guest officer leaves tomorrow, when the boss finds out in the future, where can I find the guest officer to prove it? I hope that the guest officer can understand my difficulties and stop making the small ones in a dilemma. Wu Tong pleaded again, his face full of embarrassment.
"This ......" felt that what Wu Tong said seemed to be very reasonable, and Wang Yan and they were speechless at the moment.
"Please, officer. Wu Tong very appropriately grasped Wang Yan's hesitant mentality, and took the opportunity to make a polite invitation, so that they could not refuse.
"Alright, let's go and get back quickly. Wang Yan said to Zhou Shan, Dong Yun, Yueting and Yueyu.
In the box, a large round table is filled with sumptuous dishes.
"Slow to use, I hope you are satisfied. I won't bother. Wu Tong beckoned Wang Yan to sit down and turned to leave.
Out of the box door, Wu Tong let out a sigh of relief, with an imperceptible treacherous smile on his face. The boss's plan is really seamless, no matter how careful you are, you can't escape the boss's careful calculation. Ha Luha, the task is complete, just waiting for tomorrow to receive the reward.
"Let's finish our meal quickly so we can go and rest. Time is really running out. Wang Yan picked up the chopsticks and prepared to pick up the dishes.
"Master be careful, the dish is poisonous!" The beast suddenly came into Wang Yan's mind with an anxious voice.
Wang Yan was shocked, instinctively let go of the chopsticks, and threw away the dishes that had been picked up. At the same time, they quickly knocked out the dishes that Zhou Shan, Dong Yun, Yueting, and Yueyu sandwiched on their chopsticks.
"Wang Yan, what's wrong with you?" Zhou Shan's eyes widened, looking at Wang Yan, she felt a hint of danger from Wang Yan's movements.
"Wang Yan?" Dong Yun didn't know why, her face was full of surprise.
Yueting and Yueyu sat on their chairs, their faces full of grievances. Even if they didn't obey just now, they wouldn't be guilty of treating them like this.
"We were fooled, the food was poisonous!" Wang Yan said through gritted teeth.
"Ahh
"How is it possible?" Dong Yun couldn't believe it.
"Wang Yan, are you sure it's really poisonous?" Zhou Shan believed what Wang Yan said, but he didn't understand how he could find out that the food was poisonous because he hadn't eaten it yet.
"It's true. This food has been poisoned with the intention of killing us. Wang Yan was very sure of his judgment.
"There's no reason?" Dong Yun looked at Wang Yan. She had heard that someone had won hundreds of thousands of taels of silver in the casino and was still safe, so she said: "The reputation of the Fortune Casino is very good, and we will definitely not do such a thing because we won nearly 10,000 taels of silver." “
"Brother, the color and smell of this meal are normal. How do you know that the Dao is poisonous?" Yue Ting and Yue Yu expressed the doubts in their hearts.
"Believe it or not, it's true. Wang Yan didn't bother to explain. He was already thinking about what to do next.
"In my opinion, it's better to test it out. Dong Yun felt the need to conduct a test to confirm the accuracy of Wang Yan's irresponsible guess.
"It's really a silver hairpin specially used to test poisons, and once it encounters something poisonous, this silver hairpin will turn black. Dong Yun pulled out a silver hairpin inserted in her hair bun and said to everyone.
"I also know this truth. Yueyu agreed with Dong Yun's statement.
Everyone knows this truth, and quietly watched Sister Dong Yun's test. Yue Ting motioned to Yue Yu not to make a sound and watched Dong Yun's movements.
I saw Dong Yun pick up the silver hairpin and stir it a few times in each dish. However, until all the dishes were tested by her with silver hairpins, the silver hairpins in her hands were still as bright as new, without a trace of black marks.
"Brother, you see, the silver hairpin has not turned black. It proves that this food is not poisonous. Yueyu immediately said to Wang Yan.
"If it's not poisonous, you can eat it!" Wang Yan was thinking hard, when he was suddenly interrupted by Yueyu, and he was immediately angry.
"......" Yueyu suddenly shut up, what a terrible thing, beast!
"Wang Yan, can you tell what kind of poison it is?" Zhou Shan hurriedly played the round and changed the topic.
"I'll give it a try. While Wang Yan answered Zhou Shan, he glanced at Dong Yun, Yueting and Yueyu: "Not all poisons can be measured with silver hairpins. “
Wang Yan took a plate of dishes, put it to his nose, and sniffed it carefully. The rich aroma of vegetables obscured all other smells, and Wang Yan couldn't help frowning. But out of absolute trust in the beast, he changed to another dish and continued to smell.
Zhou Shan, Dong Yun, Yue Ting and Yue Yu, the four of them quietly watched Wang Yan's movements, not daring to make a sound, for fear of affecting Wang Yan's judgment.
After changing seven or eight dishes in a row, Wang Yan finally smelled abnormal in the relatively light vegetarian fried yam. In addition to the smell of yams, he also smelled another hint of medicine.
Putting down the dish, Wang Yan took out one of the medicine bottles he was carrying, opened the bottle, smelled it, and then said, "That's right, there is a smell of drugs in this dish." “
"Ah, drugged! Are they going to rob again? Yueyu tightly covered her waist bag, which contained more than one, twenty thousand taels of silver tickets.
"Is it a drug, not a poison?" Zhou Shan saw that what Wang Yan said before and after was inconsistent, so he understood why Dong Yun's silver hairpin couldn't be tested......
"I was in a hurry just now, so I said that. But when they put drugs in their meals, they must have been equally uneasy. Wang Yan said.
"Let's run now. Yueting realized that there was danger again, so she wanted to escape.
"I can't run away. Since they are deliberately framed, they will definitely be watching outside. We're not familiar with this place, and we're going to suffer for sure. Zhou Shan analyzed the unknown factors and said it.
"Are we just sitting still?" Dong Yun disagreed with Zhou Shan's statement, she felt that only by rushing out of the rue could there be greater hope.
"No! I want to see why the people in this Fortune Casino do this?" Wang Yan said confidently, stabilizing Dong Yun's nervous mood.
