Age of Empires From Scratch - Chapter 549

[Chapter 546 This is the legendary 25 million]

“What shall we do first?”

“How about going to the deck to bask in the sun and enjoy the sea breeze?”

“That sounds good, what do you think, David?”

Sophia and Cheng Le’er were both standing next to David. Cheng Le’er was originally talking to David, but unexpectedly, Sophia took over the conversation very naturally.

Regarding the suggestion of basking in the sun, Cheng Le’er seriously considered whether to change into a swimsuit? And then bring sunscreen.

Is it too impatient? Maybe you can wait two days before using this trick.

“Le’er, did you bring sunscreen?” Sophia took out a swimsuit from her luggage. It was obvious that she was going to wear a swimsuit to bask in the sun on the deck.

“I brought it.” Seeing this situation, Cheng Le’er also took out her swimsuit, in addition to sunglasses, sunscreen and other things.

Cheng Xiaoxi looked at the invisible sparks between the two and decided to hide in a safe place first: “I’ll go say hello to the sisters and find you on the deck later.”

After saying that, she ran away without a trace. David silently watched Cheng Le’er being led by Sofia. Until several people came to the deck, she didn’t wake up. All this was calculated by Sofia.

Of course, it is possible that she realized it, but just refused to admit defeat.

For example, Sofia wanted to wear a swimsuit, and she also wanted to wear a swimsuit.

Sofia asked David to help apply sunscreen, and she also wanted David to help apply sunscreen.

Sofia ordered a sandwich by the way, she… Cheng Le’er didn’t learn this, her appetite was much smaller than Sofia.

However, looking at Sofia wearing a swimsuit and showing her perfect figure, Cheng Le’er cursed Sofia in her heart that she would become a fat man sooner or later, and she also had a little doubt about her choice.

She always thought she had fair skin, beautiful looks and long legs, but compared to the cheating Sophia, she was still a little inferior. After putting on a swimsuit, she was simply exposing her shortcomings!

“What a cunning woman, she must have done it on purpose!”

Cheng Le’er had always thought of Sophia as a naive girl, but she suddenly realized that Sophia had such a sinister and cunning side.

In the next few days, she must not sunbathe with Sophia, nor go to the swimming pool.

Fortunately, there are many things to play on this cruise ship. In addition to various performances at night, there is also a casino on the cruise ship for tourists to spend leisure time.

Even if it is in the name of a charity cruise, the casino will not be officially opened until it leaves the Hong Kong waters.

Looking up and looking around, the Fortune Pill has already gone a distance. The casino should be open, right?

Cheng Le’er is not in a hurry to pull David to the casino to play, that would make her seem too eager, as if she is in a hurry to avoid Sophia.

Pull David to sit there and chat, and wait until the time is almost right before going.

This chat lasted nearly an hour.

What made Cheng Le’er happy was that Sophia seemed to be asleep. She lay there without interrupting the whole time until David gently patted Sophia’s shoulder and woke up the girl who was sleeping very sweetly. Then they returned to the suite and prepared to change clothes to go to the theater and casino.

When they came back, they found that Cheng Xiaoxi and her second sister Cheng Xiaonan were chatting here, and the eldest sister Cheng Xiaodong was not there.

David guessed that the senior inspector of the serious crime team was wandering around the ship, screening all suspicious people.

“We are going to go to the casino. Do you two want to go together?”

“Casino?” Cheng Xiaonan is a social worker with a kind heart and a friendly personality. Usually she advises people to stay away from these things. Now she feels weird to let her go to the casino to play.

“Second sister, go and see it! Anyway, we are not playing.”

“That’s no problem.”

“Change clothes first!” Cheng Xiaoxi pulled her second sister Cheng Xiaonan into her bedroom, and warned David when closing the door: “Don’t peek!”

David spread his hands. If he wanted to see, did he need to peek? It was just a door, it couldn’t stop his various means of investigation.

But there was no need.

Using magic to change himself into a relatively formal suit, David poured himself a drink and waited quietly for the women to come out.

Sophia and Cheng Le’er had to take a shower and change into formal clothes first. With the sisters Cheng Xiaonan and Cheng Xiaoxi, they probably wouldn’t be able to come out for a while.

David, who had a premonition that he would have to wait for a long time, was considering whether to check the entire cruise ship in advance and “mark” all the terrorists to avoid knocking on the door in case of an accident.

He opened the door and it was Cheng Xiaodong who came in.

“Is my sister here with you?”

“They are changing clothes.”

Inviting Cheng Xiaodong in, David pointed to the wine cabinet: “Would you like something to drink?”

“Pure water is fine.”

Unlike his sister, Cheng Xiaodong had a slicked back hair and wore a suit with trousers. From the perspective of dressing, she didn’t have any femininity. With her unique temperament, many people would believe that she was a handsome and beautiful man.

But David looked at Cheng Xiaodong and found that it had nothing to do with the above reasons.

He stared at Cheng Xiaodong for a long time, all because of the extremely high popularity of “this person” in the past. In any work related to Hong Kong, this person will definitely appear, and there is a high probability that she will become the heroine, or at least one of the heroines.

“You are staring at me like this, do you have any intentions towards me?”

“No, I just think you have a very special temperament.”

“Save these words for the two girls who are changing clothes!” Cheng Xiaodong emphasized after he finished speaking: “I’m not talking about my two sisters.”

As an elite detective, Cheng Xiaodong, who has seen too many people, saw through David’s nature at a glance: Although he looks very handsome, this guy is definitely a super playboy!

When talking to her sister Cheng Xiaoxi just now, she had warned her third sister not to get too close to this man named David, or she would be eaten up with her bones.

Cheng Xiaoxi denied it very straightforwardly, and even brought up Cheng Le’er and Sophia as shields.

Cheng Xiaodong knew that David was busy dealing with the two girls and did not extend his evil claws to his sister for the time being, so he did not lose his temper.

Otherwise, with her temper, why would she say so much to David? She rushed up and gave the other party a punch and kick warning.

David, from Cheng Xiaodong’s reaction, was sure that the other party didn’t know who he was. It seemed that Director Zhang or Cheng Xiaodong’s direct superior did not tell her that she could ask for help when she encountered trouble.

In other words, if something really happened, it was entirely up to David to decide whether to take action.

Although he would definitely help if something really happened, it felt different to decide to take action by himself and to be forced to take action when someone asked him to.

Director Zhang is really a wise old man!

It was a very inconspicuous arrangement, but it satisfied all parties. Otherwise, how could he be the director?

Just when David was considering whether to say hello to Cheng Xiaodong first and explain his cooperative relationship with the police, Sophia and Cheng Le’er opened the door and walked out almost at the same time.

Both of them changed into formal dresses for formal occasions, wearing earrings, necklaces and other jewelry, and put on exquisite makeup, as if they were deliberately trying to compete with each other.

Seeing this scene, Cheng Xiaodong felt that there would be a big show next, and he didn’t even know when his two sisters would change their clothes and come out.

The result was that Sophia and Cheng Le’er surrounded David in front, and the three sisters of the Cheng family followed behind – it can also be understood that David was surrounded by five beauties. It was so cool all the way and attracted a lot of attention.

When David walked into the casino, he also attracted the attention of everyone in the audience.

“Who is this boy? He looks so arrogant!”

“Wow! Aren’t you afraid of dying on the ship?”

“If there is such a blessing, I would be happy to die on the ship!”

“…”

Cheng Xiaodong suddenly realized that it was a huge mistake to follow David, so after entering the casino, she took her two sisters and separated from David and his group.

Anyway, the sisters just looked around and didn’t really want to play, so it didn’t matter if they separated.

David was different. As soon as he entered the casino, he noticed a person.

He walked straight to the table where the person was sitting and sat down. David looked around and found that there were many familiar people here.

In addition to the king sitting next to him, Jack and another king were also there.

“Help me change it into chips.”

After taking out a stack of cash and asking the dealer to change it into chips, David smiled and greeted the person next to him: “What’s your name?”

“Michael.”

“David!”

After greeting the man who called himself Michael, David glanced at the two cold faces standing next to him and confirmed that the man in front of him was the gambler who won 25 million with 20 yuan.

“Are you betting on the banker or the player?”

“Player.”

After hearing this, David took out a stack of chips and bet on the player.

Then, he and Michael watched the excitement and made a fortune. In the next few rounds, David followed the bright light Michael to place bets steadily. He noticed that Michael always bet on the person on the other side of the table to win.

At this time, the Cheng sisters who had been walking around the casino also strolled here. Cheng Xiaodong saw David sitting here and wanted to take his sister away directly, but he turned around and met the person behind Michael.

After the two looked at each other in surprise, they felt something was wrong almost at the same time.

“Sister, who is that?” Cheng Xiaoxi noticed the strangeness of the elder sister and asked about her identity in a low voice.

“Senior Inspector Long Jiu from the Political Department.”

When the two younger sisters heard that it was the Political Department, they immediately understood why their elder sister reacted like this. That also meant that the young man sitting next to David was a very important person?

At the same time, Senior Inspector Long Jiu from the Political Department whispered to another cold-faced person to introduce the identity of the person opposite him: “Senior Inspector Cheng Xiaodong from the Serious Crime Unit, I don’t know why he is here.”

Long Wu carefully looked at Cheng Xiaodong and the people with her, and realized that the companions around Cheng Xiaodong were all ordinary people, not like trained police officers.

“Maybe it’s just a coincidence.”
