Quick Transmigration: Kitten's Healing Handbook - Chapter 114
Chapter 114: Infernal Labyrinth 10
He didn’t understand. An Jiayi knew that Lu Junsheng had put a chip in her necklace to locate her position and monitor her life. He was clearly a disgusting creep. Why would she agree to Lu Junsheng’s approach and contact? Could the temptation of money really make people lose their bottom line…?
The next day, Liuli, as per their agreed-upon time, got into Lu Junsheng’s car. She first got her hair and makeup done, wearing the dress she bought the previous day, beautiful beyond compare.
“Among the crowd, a radiant glance, worldly beauty like dust. An An, you are truly too beautiful. ”
An Jiayi was indeed pretty, but compared to her own transformation, there was still a huge gap.
Of course, girls all like to be praised.
Zhou Yonghou only felt that An Jiayi was even more dazzling than yesterday, so dazzling that he unknowingly lost his focus, and Lu Junsheng noticed his anomaly: “A Hao, you wait in the car first. ”
“Okay, Lu Sheng. ”
At the thought of An Jiayi and Lu Junsheng laughing and chatting, Zhou Yonghou felt particularly irritable.
After only half an hour, the ground beside the car was littered with cigarette butts again.
After boarding the yacht, Lu Junsheng intentionally distanced Zhou Yonghou from An Jiayi’s attention, so he gave him some money, instructing him to find a place to eat or gamble, not to be a lightbulb beside him.
Zhou Yonghou came aboard naturally with a mission. His contact told him that there would be an auction at this yacht party. On the surface, it was an artwork auction, but in reality, each artwork corresponded to an illegal transaction project, the highest bidder wins.
His task was to obtain the specific contents of these contracts, and ideally also record which artwork each contract corresponded to and who bought it.
Of course, just photographing the contract contents was relatively simple; matching them up was more difficult, and he might only be able to wait for other colleagues at the police station to investigate the subsequent actions of the people who bought the artwork to make a judgment.
Now that he was on board and didn’t have to follow Lu Junsheng, it provided him with convenience, but this convenience didn’t make him feel very comfortable…
After boarding the ship, Liuli enveloped the entire yacht with her spiritual sense, paying particular attention to the situation around Zhou Yonghou.
Liuli watched as Zhou Yonghou skillfully entered a room, put on a waiter’s uniform, ruffled his hair to change his hairstyle, put on non-prescription glasses and a mask, and then purposefully slowly approached a certain room, clearly having scouted the location beforehand.
Zhou Yonghou wore a hidden earphone, listening to the other party’s commands.
“I’ve synchronized the ship’s surveillance, making the corridor and room surveillance footage appear as a single frame without people, but people occasionally pass by that location, so you need to hurry. ”
“Understood. ” Zhou Yonghou chose a moment when there was no one before or behind him and entered the room.
After Zhou Yonghou went in, the corridor’s surveillance restored real-time footage.
Zhou Yonghou, wearing the waiter’s gloves, nervously searched for the location of the contracts, ensuring speed while being careful not to trigger any alarms, and also being careful to find a place to hide if anyone came in from outside.
To prevent unforeseen delays, Liuli directly transformed a strand of her spiritual sense into a gentle breeze to blow the curtains, revealing the hidden compartment’s mechanism behind the curtain.
Zhou Yonghou’s gaze naturally fell on the moving curtain, and he saw the button behind the curtain. Was this a coincidence? Was he so lucky?
The room wasn’t large; he’d already searched the obvious places. There was clearly a hidden compartment; regardless of whether the button triggered an alarm or opened the compartment, he had to try it.
Zhou Yonghou secretly prepared to retreat and pressed the button. A “click” sound was heard—the hidden compartment opened.
Zhou Yonghou breathed a sigh of relief, took out the three documents from the hidden compartment, and quickly photographed them using the watch’s built-in photographic function. After taking the photos, he removed the memory card and inserted a blank one.
“Employee, replace the corridor surveillance footage. ”
“So fast? Nice! ”
Because Zhou Yonghou was fast enough, after leaving the room, he went to the toilet, waited for the surveillance footage to return to normal, then walked out of the toilet, went to the room where he changed waiter clothes, and changed back to his original attire and hairstyle.
The memory card was then taped to the inside of the arms of a pair of sunglasses he brought onto the ship, put into the glasses case, and thrown into his luggage.
The non-prescription glasses he had just worn were broken and thrown into the trash can.
Liuli, on the other hand, was mildly punished by this small world, experiencing a splitting headache and being unable to use her spiritual sense recklessly anymore.
Seeing An Jiayi frowning in pain, Lu Junsheng could only take her to a room to rest.
“An An, if it’s too uncomfortable, I’ll have the captain turn the ship around. ”
“Lu Sheng, I’m sorry, it’s my first time on a boat, and I may be seasick. I took seasickness medicine before boarding, so I should be fine after resting for a while. ”
“There’s nothing to be sorry about. Everyone gets sick sometimes. Rest for a bit, and I’ll have someone bring you a cup of honey lemon water, which should help. ”
Fortunately, Liuli was now a Supreme God, her spiritual sense strong, and by the time the waiter brought the lemon water, Liuli had already recovered.
“Lu Sheng, thank you so much. I’m much better now. ”
“There’s a casino on board. Do you want to experience it with me? ”
Speaking of which, this was Liuli’s first time encountering a casino in all these worlds.
Before, she had seen such activities in different small worlds within the Forbidden Zone, but the forms were varied, and the underlying logic was not the same. Basically, the casino always controlled the odds of winning.
Although Liuli wasn’t very interested, she had already come, and the boss had kindly invited her. It would be impolite to refuse: “Of course I want to. I’ve seen photos of the Macau casino in travel guides, but I haven’t had a chance to go yet. ”
“The one on board is naturally not comparable to Macau’s. I’ll take you there next time. ”
Lu Junsheng took An Jiayi to the place to exchange chips, and Zhou Yonghou also received a notification from Lu Junsheng and carried four full boxes of money to exchange for chips.
The chips exchanged from four boxes of money barely filled two small boxes.
The waiter took the four empty money boxes back to the room. Lu Junsheng didn’t look closely, opened one of the small boxes containing the chips, and casually grabbed some, giving them to An Jiayi.
Lu Junsheng also casually took a few, and took An Jiayi to the Texas Hold’em poker table.
Only those who were invited and influential figures could come onto the yacht, so it wasn’t smoky and noisy like other casinos.
The loudest sound in the hall was the sound of roulette balls colliding.
The moment the chips touched, a jade-like whisper spread. When the ivory-colored discs collapsed, it was like ice cracking. The gamblers’ gentle whispers of comfort and the dealer’s low chanting of celebratory words, in the amber waterfall of light from the hanging lamps, the shadows of the stacked chips spread layer by layer like obsidian steps, weaving a nocturne flowing on the velvet table.
After sitting down at the poker table with Lu Junsheng, Liuli discovered that their chips were different from the other chips on the table.
