It's okay for me to bully my wife for the sake of the young master's dignity, right?

Chapter 610 [028] Father-in-law is enjoying a good meal in the wine cellar?

The VIP rooms on the fourth floor are far apart from each other. There is another room at least 10 steps away from Qin Jiandan and Mu Yue's room. The people living in it are Zhu Shengzhi and the captain of the royal guard Yan Cangye.

In order to personally confirm whether the gambling boat "Dragon Palace" is worth buying, Zhu Shengzhi left his staff officer "Uncle Wu" to take charge of the Shengzhi team. Because Uncle Wu took good care of Zhu Shengzhi when he was a beggar, Uncle Wu was one of the few people Zhu Shengzhi trusted.

Qin Jiandan had just settled down in the guest room when she heard someone knocking on the door. From the rude knock, she knew that it was no one else except Zhu Shengzhi.

When I opened the door, I saw Zhu Shengzhi standing on the brown carpet with white stripes. His clothes, a hybrid of Tang suit and Western style, matched well with some of the incongruous accessories in the Dragon Palace.

"Didn't we agree to split up? I'm looking for my father-in-law, and you're looking at your casino, why are you knocking on the door?"

Zhu Shengzhi glanced into the half-open door and saw that Sheriff Mu Yue did not follow him out, so he spoke more casually.

"Young Master, I am at least the hero who made it possible for you to board the ship. If I don't pay the old ship owner a deposit in advance, how can he sail the Dragon Palace to Dongcheng? Maybe my deposit will be wasted."

Zhu Shengzhi raised his left hand as he spoke.

"Why are you lifting your pig's paw?"

"Who the hell is a pig's paw! I want to ask you, is this "rift alarm bracelet" you gave me real or fake? Will I call the police if a funny ghost approaches me?"

Qin Jiandan leaned against the door and smiled, "Of course it's true. How could I lie to you?"

Zhu Shengzhi touched the six scars on his bald head and said doubtfully: "That's the best way. But why is the alarm bracelet on your wrist different from mine? It looks different and has an extra button?"

Qin Jiandan shook his left hand: "This one. Mine is an old model, and yours is a new model. They are exactly the same in terms of protecting against funny ghosts."

"Isn't that right?" Zhu Shengzhi asked, "Young Master, are you saying it the other way around? You mean yours is a new model and mine is an old model, right?"

Qin Jiandan put his hands on Zhu Shengzhi's shoulders and said sternly, "Do you think I'm the kind of person who gets bored with the old and loves the new? I told you this is the new model, the Youth Plus version, which eliminates useless buttons and reduces weight. It's most suitable for successful people like you who are ugly!"

"Take away the word 'ugly'! Young master, you are just fooling me. If the funny ghost comes and this bracelet is useless, I will turn into a ghost to settle the score with you! Forget it! I will appear when you are enjoying yourself to the extreme and recite the Diamond Sutra, and I will definitely leave you with the sequelae of impotence!"

Zhu Shengzhi called Yan Cangye, and the two went to observe the operation of the casino. His fat body dragged dark marks on the carpet in the corridor. Yan Cangye, wearing a tight black outfit and showing his curves, bowed his head to the young master.

The extra button of the "Night·Fissure Alarm Bracelet" not only has the function of "entering night in one second", but also can serve as a call function similar to a walkie-talkie.

The walkie-talkies issued by the National Police Department are large in size and limited in number, and can only be activated after police officers have completed biometric authentication. They are not suitable for communicating with each other during covert operations, especially now that the position of the Chief of Police is being questioned.

Feng Jian and Lin Lin established the Night Dragon Society's own network, modified and integrated the recorder chip and the recorder chip into the alarm bracelet, and added a call function to the alarm bracelet. Several bracelets can be grouped into a group through computer background operation, which is similar to the "WeChat group" in the Earth era. The difference is that everyone can only send voice messages, and there is a network delay.

After Qin Jiandan closed the door, Mu Yue confirmed with him again that he had mastered how to use the alarm bracelet.

"Jian Dan, you should have remembered. After pressing the button hard, people within 15 meters will be pulled into cognitive darkness for up to 10 minutes. Pressing the button lightly will start a group call. Each voice message is up to 30 seconds. Too frequent calls will cause network congestion."

"I remember it very clearly! Isn't it just a light press for talk and a heavy press for night?" Qin Jiandan tapped the side of the alarm bracelet with such force that Mu Yue was worried that she would accidentally touch the button. "Besides, it's already night, and the lights on the ship are bright. Even if I pressed the wrong button, no one would notice."

The so-called "cognitive darkness" is to make people within the range mistakenly believe that night has fallen. It can be simply considered that it is just blocking the sun. One second of darkness is most suitable for situations where you are being chased or besieged by the enemy in broad daylight. It may be completely meaningless in other situations.

"Jian Dan, don't forget that the alarm bracelet uses batteries. The one-second darkening function consumes a lot of power. What if you press buttons randomly and use up the batteries? Then the alarm function and call function will be unusable."

"That's true." Qin Jiandan accepted Mu Yue's reminder, "Although I brought a few extra No. 10 batteries, it's better to use them sparingly." At this time, the bracelets of both of them vibrated at the same time, but it was not the kind of violent vibration when the subspace was detected.

Mu Yue raised her wrist and pressed the button lightly, and Feng Jian's voice immediately came from the bracelet.

"Uh-huh...testing...this is a voice message coming from the backend of the headquarters' computer...please reply if you hear it."

Mu Yue put her lips close to the hidden microphone of the alarm bracelet: "We can hear that the human voice is slightly distorted, but it does not affect the call."

After adjusting the noise with some "clack clack", Kazama's voice became clearer.

"Young Master, Chief Sheriff, I have embedded the design of the Dragon Palace provided by Linlin into the positioning program. Now I can determine your approximate location based on the alarm bracelet. Let me confirm, are you in the VIP room on the fourth floor now?"

"That's right." Qin Jiandan joined the conversation. "Your positioning is more accurate than the satellite positioning of the Earth era... Forget it, I won't ask technical questions. I can't understand your explanation. The receptionist told me the general situation of each floor. Fengjian, you should tell me again. I want to see if the other party deliberately concealed information."

There was a pause on Fengjian's end for a while. I don't know if he was searching for information or encountered a network congestion.

"Sha... Young Master, the 4th floor where you are is the VIP floor, which includes the VIP guest room area and the private casino area."

Qin Jiandan looked towards the circular porthole at the head of the bed. Because of the high viewpoint, he could see the bright lights on the river bank, most of which came from Zhu Shengzhi's entertainment industry.

Mu Yue said: "Although private gambling halls are of higher quality, the identity verification is also stricter. I'm afraid it's not easy for my father to sneak into a private gambling hall. He is more likely to appear in the public gambling hall and the wine cellar on the lower level."

Qin Jiandan asked: "Which floor is the public gambling hall on?"

There might be a network delay on Fengjian's side. She did not answer Qin Jiandan's question immediately, but continued to introduce step by step:
"The top 5th floor is the 'Purple Star Palace', which belongs to the private domain of the ship owner. The management closely related to the ship owner will be active here, and some wealthy people in Xicheng who have a particularly good relationship with the ship owner may also live here."

Qin Jiandan nodded: "The wealthy man who came to me for treatment should be on the 5th floor. George Kennedy. He said he would notify me when he settled down. He is really procrastinating. It is not easy to make 5000 million."

"Ah, young master, are you asking which floor the Mass Casino is on? Even if Mr. Han is more likely to appear in the Mass Casino, you may have to pass through other floors when tracking him. So please wait for me to finish slowly, and first leave a general impression of the entire Dragon Palace in your mind."

"The 'Golden Scale Pavilion' on the 3rd floor is a high-end consumption and entertainment venue, including the 'Thousand Machines Casino' and the 'Colorful Feathered Clothes Hall'. The 'Hundred Plays Building' on the 2nd floor has a mechanical puppet gambling arena and a food court. The 'Dragon Gate Hall' on the 1st floor is a public casino. The underground 1st floor includes a food storage and a wine cellar, where Mr. Han is most likely hiding."

Qin Jiandan remembered the homework he had done before.

"I think it's called 'Blue Fin' Food Storehouse and 'Shipwreck' Wine Cellar? After the people in West City bought 'Dragon Palace' from East City, they kept names like 'Purple Star Heavenly Palace', but the names of the food storehouse and wine cellar are very Western, especially 'Shipwreck'. This name is too unlucky!"

"...Shasha... The young master's evaluation is not without reason, but it is said that the Blue Fin food warehouse stores top-grade wagyu beef, black truffles, caviar, and Iberian ham, and the Shipwreck wine cellar has a complete collection. If Mr. Han uses the subspace ability to frequently enter and exit the negative 1st floor, he must be very lucky."

"Well, my father-in-law is quite good at enjoying himself." Qin Jiandan glanced at Mu Yue's expression. The cat ears on Mu Yue's head trembled unconsciously, and her tail slapped the edge of the bed anxiously. Qin Jiandan reached out and gently stroked her tense shoulders, feeling the slightly trembling temperature under her dress.

"I'm here, Mu Yue, you can relax a little. Why don't you start exploring the "Golden Scale Pavilion" on the 3rd floor tonight? I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to enter the negative 1st floor without being suspected."

Mu Yue stood up and adjusted her ink-black evening dress. Her fingertips brushed across the silver chain around her waist. The dark patterns on the hem of her skirt rippled under the light, like a phantom flower blooming at midnight.

"That's all we can do. Let's talk to the insider and conduct the investigation as little as possible."
