On Sunday, five well-dressed gentlemen sat at a gambling table in a villa in a southern city. The chips on the table piled up like a hill. The card game has been going on for more than four hours.
For gamblers, time is never a reason for them to give up playing. As long as they have a dollar in their pocket, they can sit for a while, and maybe a miracle will come.
A lap of cards will soon end. For these gamblers who enjoy the moment of winning or losing gambling to stimulate adrenaline to obtain the pleasure generated when their heart beats faster and their blood pressure rises, the gambling game doesn''t need to be very clever, but it must be simple and exciting.
They are playing in this way. Each person issues three cards in turn, then discards one hand, and then shows the cards in his hand. There are different opinions on points and colors, but generally speaking, it is very simple.
A very simple way of playing games doesn''t even need brains. Although some people think that such "pairing" needs brains and technology, in fact, it doesn''t.
The bottom bet of each game is one yuan. You can raise it in the process of three licensing, and you can raise it once after abandoning your hand, a total of four opportunities.
Four opportunities are enough to pile up more than hundreds of chips in several card games. These people keep blushing, their heart beats faster, and keep quiet. There is a special atmosphere in the air, which makes people involuntarily excited.
Just when the five people were full of joy and seemed to have forgotten the time and place, a gentle knock on the door startled them.
They looked at the door one after another and took back their eyes. There was no cash in everyone''s pockets when playing cards here. They settled with chips, calculated the gains and losses directly after the card game, and then settled with cash checks.
This made them not worry about whether the people outside were the police. One of them sat back in his chair, stood up and walked towards the door, "who''s outside?"
"Take out, hurry up, I have something else to do." the sound outside the door was distorted when it passed through the wooden door. At this time, everyone noticed that it was almost seven o''clock, and it was really time for dinner.
I didn''t think so just now. Now I''m reminded that everyone feels a little hungry.
Originally, their plan was to have a big meal after the end and play in the evening, but now I don''t know who was so considerate and sent them takeout. It seems that it can save some eating time for the card game.
The man who opened the door didn''t doubt anything. First of all, this is a rich area. The security work of the service company is very good.
Most of the high-end communities in the Empire will install some very useful alarms in the room for the owners. Just pat them hard, and the security duty room of the service company will send people to rush over immediately, just a minute or two at most.
Secondly, few fools commit crimes in high-end communities in rich areas, not that they can''t find money here. Of course, this is also one reason. The most important thing is that those criminals know that they can''t afford to offend all the rich in a city.
If a rich person is hurt, other residents living in this community will be frightened, disturbed and angry.
These are ordinary people who have this emotion. They can only hold it or secretly find a place to vent, but for the rich, the rich, powerful and powerful, they will spend money.
It has been very effective to solve the problem by offering a reward. Although the police do not advocate this method, they will not stop it. After all, they have to deal with some criminals.
In addition, not only these five people know about this gambling game, but also some others know that if they don''t come this time, there will always be some good friends who will miss their stomachs. This is a very normal thing. It may even be that one of them has ordered takeout for a long time, but they forget bala.
For these reasons, the man directly opened the door and looked at the alarm button by the door.
"If I were you, I wouldn''t do that!" the young man who opened the door was wearing a round felt hat and a black windbreaker with a high collar. The muzzle of the gun in his hand was almost stuffed into the mouth of the door opener. His fingers had an obvious tendency to close on the trigger, and everything fell into silence.
Behind the windbreaker man, other people quickly poured in. These people were holding weapons. They soon controlled the situation in the house.
No one will have the courage to make some misunderstandings when several pistols are aimed at the muzzle.
Finally, two more people came in from outside the room.
Three of the five people involved in the gambling almost screamed out, because one of the two people who later entered the room was the local mayor, Mr. schnod.
The person standing next to schnauder was his wife, with some unclear expression on her face. She went to five people, examined them carefully one by one, stopped in front of the fourth person whose body was already slightly shaking, and then slapped her arm.
The slap was very strong, and the slap was very loud. Half of the face of the man, who was almost 1.75 meters tall and at least 150 pounds, was quickly swollen, and a hole was opened in the corner of his mouth, slowly overflowing with bright red blood.
It was this man who had been threatening schnauder''s family some time ago, and also made blood bomb, which frightened their children.
In the negotiation between schnauder and boworth, he asked the man to apologize to his family, that is, the man appeared at schnauder''s house after the incident, slapped himself in the face and apologized to his wife for what he had done during this period.
Legally speaking, a single evidence can not be used as key evidence to "kill" the defendant. If you want to convict the defendant, there must be a chain of evidence that can fully prove each other.
This man is a link in the chain of evidence.
Schnauder''s wife returned to her husband, pointed to the man and said, "it''s him. I won''t forget his appearance and the shock he gave us."
Schnauder comforted his wife, then looked at the windbreaker man around him, "the next thing is up to you, but can I ask, what are you going to do with him?"
The man in windbreaker grinned, "he will accept the Holy Baptism!" and then turned his head. The two gunmen raised their weapons and smashed them on his head. After the flesh and blood were blurred, he was also knocked unconscious.
The man in windbreaker asked Mr. and Mrs. schnauder to leave here first, and then asked someone to load the man away. Then he looked at the other four pale, sweaty guys and smiled.
This smile was very common, but it made the four people tremble. One of them''s legs trembled violently. After holding on for less than five seconds, he fell to the ground and knelt quickly.
"Write down your name, home address and work unit. If you don''t lie, that''s all..."
Then someone took pictures of them and checked them through their own channels according to the information they wrote. After making sure they didn''t lie, the man in the windbreaker who was sitting at the gambling table and playing with chips nodded with satisfaction.
He patted his legs and stood up. "Good, sir. You are very cooperative. That''s good. There will be no misunderstanding between us."
"But I need to remind you that if I hear any news related to what happened today after today, I will personally preside over the memorial service of your family."
He went to one of them and flicked the dust on the man''s shoulder. "Do you understand?"
Without waiting for these people to make a statement, he turned and left, and the gunmen in the room walked clean in an instant.
The remaining four people, you look at me, I look at you, and start packing without saying a word.
They know what happened some time ago. This is also what the man named ad showed off recently. After all, it is definitely not an ordinary small thing to threaten the mayor''s family. It is enough for him to show off.
Now, his consequences have emerged, whether these people are schnauder''s people or others, which means that their mayor is not as simple as he appears.
Almost ten gunmen. These people can smell a trace of cold killing intention from them. They may have really done something.
Everyone has their own survival instinct, and they are no exception. They have even thought of taking their family out to travel for a period of time, and then come back after the storm.
On the other side, schnauder''s wife was upset after she was angry. "Honey, how do you know these people? Will it involve you?"
Schnauder stroked his wife''s uneasiness and whispered in her ear, "I''ve found a new backer, you know, that man!"
His wife was stunned for a moment, and then quickly responded, "but... I heard that you didn''t... Have a contradiction?"
Schnauder smiled with self mockery, shook his head and sighed, "no one can be independent outside the rules of the game in this world, neither can I, and there is no contradiction between me and him. This work is equivalent to giving me a rare opportunity."
He clenched his wife''s hand, "for more than 30 years, I finally saw hope..."
At night, the noisy city put on a quilt called night, and gradually fell into a deep sleep.
In the station warehouse, ad woke up from a coma. The pain in his head was like an axe embedded in it. His brain was about to break.
Some vague memories woke up completely after a punch hit his face. He hissed like a drowner, took a deep breath, and stretched his whole body.
In the dim light and some people hidden in the shadow, he struggled for a moment, but it was meaningless. He was tied to a chair.
At this time, a man hiding in the shadow suddenly made a voice and made him quiet all at once.
"Mr. durin has a few unclear questions. Maybe you can answer them for him?"
