[Comprehensive British and American] How agents solve the single problem

40

The game continues.

Eggsy would rather thank James Bond for taking his place at the poker table, because he didn't feel like he could concentrate on playing with Phoebe dangling around—and, as Merlin said, he wasn't very good either.

"What's the matter with you?" The current Galahad glanced at the people around him, lowered his voice, "Merlin will kill me... no, kill Bond!"

"I came here with a mission."

"Mission 6?!"

"Q's mission," Phoebe replied, "I can do it! If you can face me, I won't do things for Q."

"..."

The incumbent Galahad really had a big head for two full laps.

He could only be thankful that today he was just preparing to cast bait. Even James Bond would not bomb the casino the first time he saw Rachev. Phoebe was in no danger here for the time being.

But she has been exposed to the public, or as someone who knows the Swedish prince, what if Rachev is going to take her down?

"This isn't a tape game with me, Phoebe," Eggsy said. "You're in danger."

"Of course I know!"

Phoebe frowned, obviously she didn't like Eggsy's words very much.

Eggsy: "No, you don't—"

He paused for a moment.

Phoebe tilted her head: "Eggsy?"

Eggsy sighed: "That's all right, Merlin is on his way here, and you will explain to him in person later."

Phoebe's eyes lit up.

Their conversation came to an end for the time being. There was a complaint from the gambling table in the northeast corner. Eggsy turned his head and found that another man had decided to leave.

He turned to Phoebe and winked at the girl.

"Do you mind if I join?"

Eggsy led Phoebe to the gaming table and smiled at the players on the table.

Rachev raised his hand indifferently, but Bond half-jokingly warned: "Be careful to lose everything, young man."

Eggsy: "It is said that novices have good gambling luck."

Rachev, who was sitting opposite James Bond, showed an impatient look: "Can we start?"

Bond made a gesture of please.

Eggsy stretched out her hand towards Phoebe, and the elf-like girl obediently sat beside him, leaning on his arm like a vase in those spy movies that is useless except for being pretty.

To say that as a vase, Phoebe is too qualified: the blonde girl who is curious about everything looks at the dealer seriously, and after seeing the cards Eggsy got, she asks him in his ear from time to time A few questions about the rules.She also observed the other players, Bond when he got the card, the opponent who was about to check, and the Rachev.

The dark-haired man held the cards expressionlessly, his gray prosthetic eyes were particularly conspicuous on the angular face.As if sensing Phoebe's gaze, Rachev looked up at her.

Any other girl would always look away, whether out of fear or shyness, but Phoebe was no "other" girl, and she boldly met Rachev's gaze and stared straight at him half an hour.

Until Rachev said bluntly: "What's the matter, miss?"

Phoebe: "It's nothing, sir, it's just that you've won a lot of games, and I want to see what a good poker player looks like."

Who can resist a lady's heartfelt compliment?Phoebe who said these words had an innocent expression, clear eyes, and a face full of admiration and exclamation. Even for a character like Rachev, she relaxed her tense expression a little.

He moved the corners of his mouth indiscernibly, which could hardly be called a smile: "Then miss, if I were you, I should persuade your male partner to stop."

Phoebe turned to look at Eggsy.

After a few rounds, he lost a lot, and in this round, Eggsy pushed out all his chips.

But when he heard the provocative words, the young man just raised his eyebrows.

Eggsy also turned to look at Phoebe. He picked up the card from the dealer and put it on the table: "How about giving me another lucky kiss?"

Phoebe smiled. Like those beautiful girls, she took Eggsy's card and dabbed crimson lip gloss on it.Eggsy held her hand, and it was Phoebe who revealed the last hole card.

He pushed all the cards out and smiled a victor: "Rookie luck."

Rachev, who lost the game for the first time tonight, quickly put away all his smiles.

He threw the cards in his hand on the table, and his sinister eyes locked on Eggsy: "Then, should we talk about business, Your Excellency?"

Eggsy knocked on the table casually, then stood up: "Of course."

If Phoebe knew Morse code, she would have noticed that Eggsy had typed "Dangral is hooked", but Phoebe didn't understand, it was Eggsy who was reminding Merlin.Phoebe instinctively followed Eggsy to her feet, trying to follow him, but James Bond, who was still sitting there when he took the first step, reached out and grabbed the girl's arm.

"Phoebe," he reminded.

Ok.

Phoebe reluctantly stopped, and of course Eggsy knew she was very reluctant. The young man turned around and patted her arm reassuringly before getting up and leaving with Rachev.

The people at the card table dispersed, and Bond took Phoebe to the railing upstairs. Agent 007 looked down at her: "What are you looking for?"

Phoebe lay on the railing, looking at the hall where people were coming and going: "Eggsy said Merlin is on his way."

Bond: "That's not for you either."

Phoebe snorted and murmured, "I know."

Of course he came here for a mission. Even if his own house was on fire, Merlin would finish the work before going back to save the property.Phoebe wouldn't be angry about this kind of thing, if Merlin only cares about her and doesn't care about the task, then he is not Merlin.

But like Phoebe said to Eggsy, she came with a mission.

The girl soon found Merlin among the crowd in the hall.

Tall and hairless, Merlin stood out in the noisy environment—of course, nothing special.He was wearing a dark casual suit, no tie, and an ink-colored shirt with an open neckline. Even though he still wore glasses, he was no different from ordinary tourists wandering around.

He stood in the corner of the hall until Eggsy, who was well-dressed in formal attire, walked out, and then he took a step to follow.

Phoebe turned and ran away immediately.

"Phoebe? Phoebe!"

By the time Bond realized, Phoebe had already run down the stairs. He yelled a warning behind his back in vain, but Phoebe turned a deaf ear.

She was stepping on eight centimeter high heels, carrying a light-colored skirt, and ran towards Merlin.

"Jim!"

Merlin walked across the hall, but Phoebe was still on the stairs, and she couldn't help shouting.

"Uncle Jim?"

With Phoebe's knowledge of Merlin, he must have located her when she stepped into the casino, and he must have heard her calling him behind her back.But the man didn't pause at all. Seeing that Merlin was about to walk out of the gate, Phoebe's voice was filled with anxiety: "Uncle Jim!"

The girl who stepped on the last step tilted her foot in anxiety.

Her exclamation was accompanied by the sound of her knees hitting the floor.

Merlin finally stopped.

The man's broad back froze in the air for a few seconds, then he sighed, gave up on following Eggsy, turned and walked towards the fallen Phoebe.

Phoebe fell to the ground with tears in her eyes, this was really not light.Merlin knelt down and helped her up from the ground: "What are you in a hurry for, girl?"

"Uncle Jim!"

Phoebe climbed onto Merlin's neck.

Because of the sprained foot, even the tone of her soft voice changed.Phoebe hugged him tightly like a drowning man catching driftwood.

"I thought you didn't hear me." She said aggrievedly.

"Just because you want to keep me," Merlin tilted his head, his lips were next to her ear, "deliberately stepping in vain? Too desperate, Phoebe."

Of course she did it on purpose.

Merlin couldn't believe that Phoebe, who could jump onto the wardrobe with almost no strength, or simply stepped on a hook to hang on the wall, would fall flat because of her unsteady walk in high heels.

He had already discovered that as long as it was something Phoebe decided to do, she would use all means to accomplish her goal.

The girl around Merlin paused and complained softly: "Who told you to ignore me!"

Merlin: "Okay, girl, let me see your feet."

Phoebe obediently let him go, and Merlin lifted Phoebe's skirt, revealing her slender and white legs.

The heel of the left foot was broken abruptly. The fall was intentional, but it caused real damage.Her ankles were already swollen, not to mention the knees that directly touched the ground. Although there was no bleeding, the blood from red to purple spread to the entire kneecap, which was still very serious.

Merlin lightly touched Phoebe's ankle, and she gasped, "It hurts!"

"Now I know it hurts," Merlin said in a serious tone, "It will last for a long time, and you will regret it."

"I do not know."

Phoebe blinked.

"Merlin can't expose himself so early," her voice was barely audible, "Q asked me to stop you, he has other plans, and I will discuss it with you tonight."

Just know that.

Merlin was silent for a moment, then asked, "Where is your communicator?"

Phoebe touched the tiara hanging from her forehead.

Well, the bone conduction headset is still made for women, either there are women in the new 00 agents, or they are indeed planning to recruit a female agent.

"Phoebe."

The man reached out to grab Phoebe's slender waist and scooped her up from the ground.

The petite girl snuggled into Merlin's arms, and she helped him on the shoulders again, her delicate face was full of happiness: "Uncle Jim, I miss you so much."

Merlin raised an eyebrow.

He looked down at Phoebe, Merlin's brown eyes meeting her gray ones through the lens.

"Phoebe, you have to tell me," he said calmly, "what condition did you agree to Q in order to take this trip with Bond?"

Phoebe froze.

Well, Merlin was Merlin, she was just showing her face, he had already guessed this step.

Agreeing to Q, I really took over Maosheng... the biggest challenge in life.

The author has something to say: Phoebe: Look at my tricks!

Speaking of it, I want to complain for a long time, you Uncle Mai, the character design of Ratchev, is good at calculation and math genius, and you are invincible at the gambling table. You don’t even talk about one eye and shed blood and tears, it’s too sensual! ! !It's like the settings in Danmei comics or AVG games! !

But that being said, you Jiang Hua still really want to describe him, hehehe
