Chapter 185 Cui Bisi: What is your purpose in coming to Port Nerna?
While being chased, Chu Xuange accidentally touched something and opened the hidden door located at the corner.
His pursuers also became more cunning, attacking him from both sides, leaving him in a dilemma. He made a tough decision and walked into the invisible door.
When he saw what was happening inside the hidden door, his heart sank.
The first thing you see is a large, intricately carved wooden table, around which are ten genuine leather seats, each with a box wrapped tightly in blood-red silk.
Chu Xuange noticed the names of the invited VIPs in the leather seats: Carter, founder of Blue Space; Field, designer; Eugene, world sprint champion; Pell, painter; Barton, diplomat; Merke, royal translator; Senaxi, renowned scholar; Martyrs, racing champion; Marshall, heir to the Exxon Group; and Sophia, violinist.
Chu Xuange didn't see Pei Hening's name, so he frowned and quickly memorized the names on the seats.
He smelled a faint, intermittent odor of blood. Following the scent, he discovered it was coming from a box wrapped in blood-red silk placed on the leather seat bearing the name Merke.
Just as he was about to open the box to see what was inside, he heard a loud shout: "Who's there!"
Immediately afterwards, he was chased by wave after wave of people, first by pursuers with electronic voices, then by pursuers wearing clown masks...
——
Pei Hening had been squatting for a long time, and just as her patience was about to run out, she heard a series of loud noises coming from the bathroom through the security camera.
Sang Jincheng began to struggle; it seemed that the glass water cup she had left in the bathroom had already served its maximum purpose.
Half an hour later, Pei Hening heard Sang Jincheng cursing.
"Hiss, they're tied up really tightly. These two despicable men and women are abusing their prisoners!"
Pei Hening listened to the birdsong and fragrant flowers and fell silent. She knew that it would be right to gag this girl when feeding her. She could scold so happily when no one was in front of her. Wouldn't her aggression be doubled when someone was in front of her?
"...Locked up?"
Pei Hening heard her kicking the door, banging on the door, and trying every means to pick the lock.
The doors to the luxury suites on floors 22-27 of the Dawn Casino are not easy to open, let alone the fact that she deliberately blocked them, making it possible to open them from the outside.
Sang Jincheng tried for a long time but found that she really couldn't open the broken door. Finally, she gave up and took out her phone to contact her assistant, bodyguard, and personal butler to come and rescue her.
When Sang Jincheng opened his contacts, he was almost driven mad by that cunning woman, Cui Bisi. That bastard had actually deleted all the contact information except for the invited big shots!
Sang Jincheng picked up a phone, dialed it, and cried out in despair, "Where are you? Come save me."
"27-02, she's not here. She left more than an hour ago. Hurry up, I'm afraid she'll come back early."
"I'm waiting for you, hurry up."
Pei Hening listened to the sounds from the surveillance video, a slight smile playing on her lips. "Very good, it's finally coming."
Half an hour later, she finally saw the person that Sang Jincheng had shaken over—the gambling king Mary.
Casino Queen Mary wore a light brown casual suit, her long black hair was tied in a high ponytail, and she wore exaggerated red gemstone earrings. Under the white light, the earrings sparkled with colorful diamonds.
To be precise, it's dispersion, or more accurately, fire.
She had a clear goal and headed straight for apartment 27-02.
She steadied herself and pulled a small item from her pocket: [Master Key] (Rank C).
When you possess a key that can open all doors, you need to consider whether that door should be opened at all. It can open locks of grade C or lower, consumes 30 mana, and has a 5-minute cooldown.
Just as she was about to open the door, she felt a chill on her neck; a gleaming samurai sword was pressed against her neck.
The sharpened blade was pressed tightly against her carotid artery, threatening her life.
Mary broke out in a cold sweat. Her hand holding the [Master Key] trembled. She was about to turn around to see who it was when she heard a soft chuckle behind her: "Ms. Mary, I don't recall inviting you into my room, did I? Are you trying to sneak in and steal something?"
Pei Hening glanced at her with a half-smile, her gaze landing on the [Master Key]. This little thing was quite interesting, but unfortunately its level was too low, so it wasn't very useful.
Upon hearing her words, Casino Queen Mary tried to quietly slip the [Master Key] back into her pocket. She asked, "You've misunderstood. Put the knife down first. It's not good to use knives or guns."
"I'm sorry, I don't think I misunderstood you."
Pei Hening added, "You were sneaking around outside my room, it's very suspicious."
Mary paused for a moment, then began to negotiate: "What will it take for you to let me go?"
It wasn't that she was afraid to fight with Tribes; the main problem was that she didn't want to make a scene, which would only complicate matters further if others were involved.
Pei Hening reached out and took the [master key].
"This little gadget is pretty good."
Mary's face darkened. She suppressed the urge to snatch the [Master Key] back and said, "Can you let me go now, Tribes?"
Pei Hening's eyes widened: "When did I say I would let you go?"
"Put your hands above your head and behave!"
She pressed the knife even closer to Mary's neck.
Mary: "..."
"speed!"
She reluctantly raised her hand as Pei Hening requested.
Pei Hening took out the room key and opened the door with one hand: "Go in."
After the two went inside, Pei Hening locked the door from the inside.
In the bathroom, Sang Jincheng heard the noise, his eyes lit up, he stood up from the chair and pounded on the door: "Mary, I'm here, save me! Tribes is completely inhuman, she's especially outrageous, she even abused prisoners!"
Pei Hening threatened Mary to stop her from answering before asking in a high-pitched voice, "How outrageous was she?"
"She and Field tied me up for a day and a night and didn't give me any food. They're absolutely insane."
To avoid being out of character, Sang Jincheng used much more elegant language; she originally wanted to curse the adulterous couple.
"You poor thing, wait here, I'll get you out of here right now!"
Sang Jincheng then realized that the voice was wrong. Suppressing her panic, she asked, "You're not Mary, who are you?"
Mary saw through the mirror that Pei Hening was focused on the bathroom, and she clenched her fist in preparation for a counterattack. However, the sharpened katana was once again close to her neck, with a bloody mark on it.
"If I were you, I would behave myself and not cause any trouble. After all... you really can't beat me, Ms. Mary."
Pei Hening said, taking out a piece of hemp rope from the drawer: "Hands behind your back."
Mary tried to bargain: "Tie it in the front, it's uncomfortable to tie it in the back."
"Please recognize your current situation, okay? Don't be so shameless, Ms. Mary."
Mary still cooperated with her, mainly because she didn't sense Pei Hening's murderous intent.
Seeing that she was honest, Pei Hening led her to the living room and asked, "What is your purpose in coming to Nerna Port?"
