Whispering Verse

The moment the two sides looked at each other, both Dr. Schneider and Xia De's eyes widened, and Xia De even read the meaning of "Why are you here" from the other's eyes.

When Xia De asked about his clothes, he told the doctor that he was going to attend a more formal dinner recently because of the task entrusted by the firm, but he did not mention that it was the dinner at the Lake View Manor, and the doctor did not ask him where he was going, probably Didn't think Shad would be in this place.

He wanted to leave the poker table and go to the doctor, but the doctor shook his head slightly at Xia De seriously, and at the same time, the conversation with his friend about the difference between silver and gold thumping did not stop.

They passed by the grape trellis in this way, and there was a friend of Dr. Schneider's companion at the card table, and they also greeted each other a few words.

The doctor did not have any conversation with Xia De, but very covertly made a series of more complex movements with both hands, and left with his companion after confirming that Xia De could see clearly.

"But what do those gestures mean?"

Xia De thought suspiciously while staring at the grapes hanging from above.

Although he could see clearly, he didn't understand at all. He doesn't understand sign language, and he doesn't understand hints. It doesn't matter how clear Dr. Schneider's gestures are.

"However, now Mrs. La Soya of [Blood of Mercury], the ring warlock team of the Orthodox Church, the high-level ring warlock 'that lady' of unknown level, and Dr. Schneider have all appeared in Lakeview Manor. What is going on here? What's going to happen...try to find a doctor after playing cards...will Miss Louisa and Priest Augustus be here too?"

The second game of Rhodes between the horticultural artist Sir Solar and the flour factory owner Mr. Sikh is obviously more interesting than the first game between the two barons. The two almost stalemate in the way that you win a round and I win another round. At the end of the fight, both of their foreheads were already sweating.

And when the second round ended with a score of 4-4, not only the participants, but even the onlookers dared not take a deep breath.

"This round, I won."

Sir Solar used the face-up "Flower 12" to pick apart the back-up cards, took a long breath, and turned the "Sun 9" face-up. Mr. Sikh, who was sitting across from him, let out a long sigh, and turned himself on his back. Lien Shade couldn't help but feel sorry for him.

Mr. Thick's face-up card is not important, because his back-up card turned out to be "Queen". In the competitive rules of the Rhodes card, once a party draws the "queen" or "king", the card must be suspended. Although the other party can continue to draw cards, unless they can finally get exactly 21 points, otherwise they will be losers in any case.

And if both parties draw both the king and the queen, compare the size of the other card under the same situation, and the king is greater than the queen under different circumstances. If a player holds both the "King" and "Queen", they automatically win, but this is only possible when the cards are dealt.

So Mr. Thicke's queen was drawn, but he lost to Sir Solar's blackjack, enough to be talked about by spectators for months.

Sir Lavender stretched out his head to look at the cards on the stone table with a red face, and patted Sir Solar's shoulder heavily with his hand, almost slapping the toothpick that Sir was holding out.

Both sides got up and left, and compared to the atmosphere in the first round, the atmosphere at this time was obviously much better. Sir Solar and Mr. Sikh had no conflict of interest, and the two shook hands in a friendly manner, and the latter continued to express his regrets.

So the game became a game for each, and the final candidate was particularly important. The shrewd Baron Rwanda decided to play again by himself. Baron Lavender thought about it carefully, and finally took out a deck of cards and asked his "friends" to draw one each. Germany play.

Now even Xia De had nothing to say:

"However, this kind of luck is already a bit strange."

But the Baron of Rwanda has something to say, he is a bit shorter than his friends around him, and he looks more like a glowing potato after sitting down early:

"Lavender, we agreed to play fairly. The people we invite are all our friends, not Rhodes masters who have been hired with money. Otherwise, this game will be meaningless."

He didn't directly say that Xia De had a problem, but he obviously didn't agree that Xia De, a stranger, played against him.

"Yes, this young detective is my friend. We had a good chat just now."

Baron Lavender said without changing his face, Xia De took the opportunity to hand over the few business cards he had left to the somewhat short baron, and after seeing the address of "No. Somewhat surprised, he carefully put away his business card.

"You see, I am a native of Tobesk, not an out-of-town Rhodes player. If I am a very good player, it is impossible for you not to have heard of me. Oh, Baron, if you don't believe me, I can tell you I swear to God, I am definitely not a Rhodes master."

Xia De said very seriously, the Baron of Rwanda still looked at him suspiciously, but still nodded to indicate that the game can start. But before Mr. Candela of the Prophet Association began to shuffle the cards, Baron Rwanda said to Baron Lavender:

"Since Detective Hamilton is your friend, why not give him my bet after he wins, and I will give you 20 pounds as another bet."

The Baron of Rwanda smiled all over his face:

"Since you're friends, I guess it's okay? You don't need to raise the stakes."

Although 20 pounds is a lot of money~www.wuxiamtl.com~, it is still not as valuable as that [Ancient Fairy Tale Match Girl]. According to the market price that Xia De knew, once the [Match Girl] with special rules can find a suitable buyer to sell, it will be worth no less than 50 pounds. This is a real rich man's collection.

Baron Lavender certainly didn't want to agree, and there was no reason to agree to this request now. But seeing that everyone was looking at him, his heart skipped a beat, and the issue of face instantly took over. He raised his head and said:

"Of course, Detective Hamilton is my friend. If he wins the bet, the bet is his... Your twenty pounds go to Sir Solar."

While talking, he patted the shoulder of Xia De who had already sat down. Xia De understood that Baron Lavender would definitely ask for the cards afterwards, but he would pay a sum of money.

"I have no objection either."

Xia De said, and Sir Solar, who was watching the game from the sidelines, nodded indifferently.

So the third round officially started, and the deck was still the deck of the two barons, so after the shuffling, Shad, who had a faint red light in his right eye, roughly knew the contents of the opponent's first two cards.

Of course, it is impossible for him to remember the bloodstains of all 54 cards, but after using the spell [Echo of Blood], he not only has a keen observation of the subtle bloodstains, but also strengthens the memory of the bloodstains, so he dares to confidently think that roughly know.

"The other party's first two cards are flower 10 and flower 9, there is a high probability that they will not continue to ask for cards..."

Xia De thought in his heart, seeing that his open card was Sun 1, and his hole card was Star 9. He stretched out his hand to signal Mr. Candela to continue to give the card, and it turned out that it was Moon 11 after it was opened.

"No, this luck is definitely not right, what happened?"
