[Zhongyingmei] After inheriting the throne
Chapter 72 Bloody Mystery
Everyone knows that a casino in Penguin's hands has been quietly handed over to others.The situation was so calm that it seemed that this was a deal that had been negotiated for more than half a year, and now the contract had been signed, and everything had been properly transferred. There was no trace of any major action at all.
Even if no one believes it, this is really a peaceful business.
Just kidding, who is the penguin? Is it possible that he still does charity? This is how he gave a piece of cake in his hand to others
However, this also proves from the side that there is indeed a lot of content in this transaction.And now, the current new boss of this casino, the forces behind it must be not simple.At least, what makes Penguin so docile is either too deterrent or enough benefits.
Or, maybe both.
Many forces are eyeing this, eager to know who this "newcomer" is.But no one is willing to be the first one.
Those who have survived in Gotham until now are not stupid people.
The underworld in Gotham is full of curiosity about this, and another force in the dark night of Gotham naturally did not miss a change in the situation that has obviously shaken the world in Gotham.
Bruce Wayne sat in front of the Batcomputer, waiting for what he could glean from the database.Unfortunately, he failed.
According to the limited monitor records, he confirmed at most that the person who made a big fuss in the casino that night, then went to the Penguin duel and gained the upper hand, and finally took the casino as his own, was the lady in the red dress.
There is no one in the database who matches her face and identity.There is no similar role in the entry and exit records.
She seemed to emerge from the ground suddenly, and she acted in a high-profile manner as soon as she appeared on the stage, making it difficult for people to understand the energy behind it.
Bruce pondered for a long time, and decided to meet for a while in person.
Isn't it a normal social activity for Gotham's young and old to come and go here?
The casino that belonged to the Penguin and now belongs to the Red Queen is still operating as usual, as if nothing happened.Even the Red Queen sometimes plays a few games herself with the more skilled guests.
The Red Queen doesn't seem to care much about the task assigned by Cinderella.In other words, after she confirmed that there was such a thing that must be done, she put the business on hold for the time being, probably waiting for the opportunity to come to the door by herself
No one can force the Red Queen to do a certain thing, and the Red Queen will not be happy to do something under other people's orders.
In other words, if you want her to accomplish a certain goal, sometimes, even if you ask thousands of times, the Red Queen may not agree.
She does what she pleases.
Today is a rare fine weather, and it is rare for the Red Queen to have the patience to watch the surveillance upstairs for a while, to see if there are any guests worthy of her going downstairs to play for a while.
It didn't take long for her eyes to be attracted by a new visitor.
The reason that attracted her was not the other party's handsome and charming appearance, nor his obviously expensive net worth, nor his incomparable skills.
He is probably the so-called person with the physique of a focusing light. As soon as he entered the arena, he attracted the attention of many people around him. Chat with each other for a while.
The Red Queen felt a long-lost emotion, which might be called jealousy.On occasions where she is present, she is the only one who attracts the most attention from the crowd, not one of them.
"Interesting." The Red Queen looked at it for a while.
"This is Bruce Wayne, Your Highness." Jack announced his identity from the side.
After this Mr. Wayne greeted some people, he said that he came to relax.So, everyone wisely stopped disturbing him too much, but warmly invited him to come and play at their own table.
Mr. Wayne soon joined a certain battlefield with his arms around a new female companion who was already on the field.He played a few games casually, winning big and small, holding a wine glass and chatting with his girlfriend, and then started throwing coins again.
Who wouldn't like a guest who can afford to lose?
The atmosphere was very good.
And just after Mr. Wayne integrated into the casino, he asked in a joking tone, "I heard that the owner of the casino here has been replaced by a rare lady."
The smiles of the guests froze and they looked at each other.There are a few well-informed people who wink at each other.This strange atmosphere lasted only half a second before disappearing, and the spirits at the scene quickly continued the atmosphere, and then said "whispering" in a classic gossip tone.
"I heard that she is a rare beauty."
"However, it must be a rose with thorns that can swallow a casino."
"All I know is that Cobbot seems to be very polite to her. Tell me, did he bow down under her skirt?"
"She's upstairs. It is said that she will come down sometimes. However, I have been here for two days and I haven't seen her yet."
"Then I'm lucky. Just the day before yesterday, I took a look from a distance. At that time, she was at the table on the second floor."
"What I heard is that her gambling skills are unrivaled, and those who play the best will have a chance to be invited to play with her."
"Speaking of which." Mr. Wayne asked curiously and honestly after listening to the news that he didn't know whether it was true or not, "Does anyone know who she is?"
The guests looked at each other and just pouted.
A person spoke hesitantly, as if he was not sure, "I heard that someone called her the Red Queen."
This is obviously not a name, but just a code name.But the biggest criminal in Gotham has never been so hidden, so this name that has not yet emerged in Gotham is not a piece of information that can be investigated.
It's no different if you say it or don't say it.
Why don't we find a chance to beat up the Penguin?
Bruce, Batman, Wayne put back the backup plan in his mind.
Thinking about it in his heart, with a consistent smile on his face, he held champagne and said, "Then I really want to see it with my own eyes."
Just as he was speaking, the atmosphere on the scene changed suddenly.
At that moment, all the service staff in the casino seemed to have entered the slow motion mode, and there was an obvious shift in the object of attention.And they're looking in the direction
central main staircase
Bruce Wayne happened to have his back turned, seeing that the guests around him were all distracted at this moment, he also turned around.
On the stairs, two rows of service staff dressed in black and red lined up on both sides of the stairs, facing each other.In the middle, there was a lady wearing a bright red dress, and behind her were two attendants who could tell by their clothes that they were of a higher rank. The three of them were slowly walking down the stairs one after another.
Bruce Wayne looked into her face.
She has gorgeous red hair that doesn't seem to be of the level that can be achieved naturally. At this moment, she is slanted into a unique and elegant bun, coiled behind her head, and fixed by a series of beautiful gold ornaments. .
Her eyes are emerald green, but not the kind of green that reminds people of the forest, but full of a sense of deterrence of predators, so that people can tell at a glance that they are pure prey in her eyes.
She wore a long bright red dress, the color matched her red hair, and the part designed by Huatuo on the back was like a grand cloak attire, making her look like a king who was patrolling her territory.
Red can conjure up a lot.For example, it is as warm as a leaping flame, and as gorgeous as a bright red rose, but using these to describe the "Red Queen" is not so meaningful.
Bruce Wayne keenly sensed some sense of crisis hidden under the water.The other party's red color seemed to condense life and be full of bloody meaning.
This period of time is actually very short, and it only takes a few seconds to go down the stairs.But when the Red Queen walked downstairs, everyone felt that it was a time played in slow speed.
They held their breath involuntarily, and now they exhaled deeply.
All the service staff bent down and put their hands on their chests to salute like the Red Queen, while the guests stood there stiffly, a little overwhelmed by the grand atmosphere.
The hall, which was still extremely lively just now, suddenly fell into a kind of silence.
The Red Queen raised a tall crystal glass polished with exquisite animal patterns from the tray brought by her entourage, in which lay a light layer of burgundy red wine.
"Have a good time."
The Red Queen raised the cups, and the guests also involuntarily raised the cups in their hands, thanking them from a distance.
The Red Queen put down the cups, and the service staff resumed their work at hand, while the guests began to turn their attention back, making the scene once again heated up into that luxurious atmosphere.
Bruce Wayne looked at the one who was still aloof just now and attracted the attention of the audience. The Red Queen with an extremely aggressive aura walked into the crowd, reducing his unique sense of presence.
She has restrained all her aura now, except for the unstoppable sharpness between her eyebrows and eyes, she doesn't look that extraordinary.
And this "Red Queen" lady, now with a clear goal, is walking towards herself.
The tap of her heels on the carpet was supposed to be silent, but Bruce couldn't help but watch her pace and dub her in his head.
"Da da da."
She stopped and walked in front of her.
"Hello, Mr. Wayne," said the Red Queen, raising her hand. "Welcome here. I am the Red Queen."
"Nice to meet, ma'am." Bruce gently held her hand, bowed his head and offered a standard hand kiss.
Now, he suspects that he is indeed meeting the ruler of a certain country.
Bruce Wayne, who had seen countless people and wandered around, felt a familiar aura that belonged only to the superiors from her body.
He looked up and met her emerald green eyes.The other party was looking down at him, "I hope you have a good time here, Mr. Wayne."
Even if no one believes it, this is really a peaceful business.
Just kidding, who is the penguin? Is it possible that he still does charity? This is how he gave a piece of cake in his hand to others
