The Secret Chamber of the Card Game

Shu Xiaomeng and Liu Xiaoyan are sitting at a dining table not far away, chatting while eating. Their chats have always revolved around Luo Yan, the queen of the music scene. Several of them have liked the goddess Luo Yan since middle school, cell phone ringtones, alarm clocks , are also all the songs of the goddess.It can be seen that they are indeed Luo Yan's diehard fans.Forming a group to go to the 20th anniversary commemorative concert, on the surface, there is no problem.

Ye Qi quickly searched for Luo Yan's information, and said to his teammates in a low voice: "This queen of music has more than 8000 million fans. Judging from the evaluations on the Internet, she is not only good at singing, but also very talented. She has written a lot by herself. The popular pop songs are also very humble and gentle. Her status in the music world is almost unmatched. Several well-known singers in the music world today are students brought out by her. These people will also be special guests. Support this concert."

Shao Qingge raised his eyebrows and said, "There shouldn't be a murder case in the entertainment industry like 9 of Hearts, right?"

I still remember the homicide case of 9 in the entertainment industry, the complex interpersonal relationships in the entertainment industry shown, opened everyone's eyes.Three days later, there were so many music superstars participating in the concert in Sun City, everyone always felt that something would happen.

Xiao Lou suddenly thought of a question, looked at everyone, and said in a soft voice: "Luo Yan is a well-known singer in this world, people who go to her concert should be more aborigines in the card world, there will be 'outsiders' 'go?"

Lao Mo said: "Not necessarily, there are many 'outsiders' who decide to live in this world. If they are interested in music, it is not a burden for them to go to the concert. The ticket price of Luo Yan's concert , Compared with our top singer concerts in the real world, it really pales in comparison."

Shao Qingge agreed: "That's right. I remember that in reality, the ticket price for the VIP seat of the celebrity concert is more than 2000 yuan for the official ticket, which is 20 yuan when converted into gold coins. But for Luo Yan's concert, the VIP ticket is officially sold. The price only needs to be 5, and the highly speculated scalper ticket is only 20, which is almost a quarter of the reality.”

In other words, in this world, VIP tickets for the Goddess concert can be bought for 500 yuan, and ordinary tickets may be [-] yuan.

The low price may attract a large number of challengers to go to the concert.

Hearing this, Ye Qi couldn't help feeling: "That's really cheap, 500 yuan is just the price of a meal with friends. I don't know about the concert. If I knew about it earlier, I would like to buy a ticket to see it. "

Liu Qiao said: "If you are not in a hurry to pass the barrier, such a low ticket price is really attractive."

There must be many challengers with this idea of ​​"joining in the fun", especially young people who love music, the low ticket price, the gimmick of the 20th anniversary concert, and several special guests from the music industry, the idle challenger said Maybe I will buy a ticket to see...

Xiao Lou asked, "By the way, what day of the week is the concert?"

Shao Qingge said: "Tuesday."

This is strange, usually concerts are held on weekends, which is convenient for students and office workers to watch, but this time it is Tuesday?Xiao Lou thought about it carefully, and suddenly thought of a key point: "On weekends, all challengers will be forced to enter Zhou Chang's secret room."

Yu Hanjiang frowned slightly: "If the concert is held on the weekend, the challengers have to do weekly tasks and cannot go to the concert, but if the time is on Tuesday, most of the challengers will be free. Such an arrangement is Coincidence? Or is it intentional to lure challengers into the concert?"

Everything is just speculation at the moment, without any proof.

It's just that everyone is always a little uneasy.Especially after returning to the carriage after breakfast, Xiao Lou casually asked a few young passengers who were unfamiliar with him about the concert, and he found that one-third of the young people in the entire carriage were going to the concert of.

Luo Yan's influence in this world is definitely at the level of a queen.

At noon, the train stopped at a halfway station, and many people got off the train. Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou went to the conductor to make up for tickets. They happened to get eight sleeper tickets, and everyone took their luggage to the sleeper compartment to rest.

Yu Hanjiang whispered to his teammates: "Everyone pay attention to observe the passengers around. If something is wrong, tell me and Xiao Lou immediately. It's best if nothing happens on this journey. If there is a case, we may have to help solve the case again."

The replenished tickets were scattered in different carriages, and the teammates found their respective beds to sleep, and followed Yu Hanjiang's instructions to observe the surrounding passengers.

There were no accidents during the ensuing journey. The 72-hour journey was a little too calm. Except for the appearance of Shu Xiaomeng's six-member girlfriend group, which made everyone nervous for a while, no other acquaintances or friends were found on this train. suspicious person.

After a long wait, the train finally arrived.

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang purposely got out of the car behind Shu Xiaomeng and the others. When they walked to the exit, they didn't see anyone coming to pick them up. The six girls directly hired two taxis and took them to the hotel.Seeing that the taxi disappeared from sight, Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang had no choice but to stop and follow, and they also hired two taxis to go to the New Century Hotel that Mr. Tang had booked.

This hotel is located by the sea and is a five-star sea view hotel.

Different from the mountain and forest scenery of Moon City, Sun City is a seaside city. There are coconut trees everywhere along the road. Many people wear cool swimsuits and walk barefoot on the beach. Some people lie on the beach and bask in the sun. Many children squat Come down to pick up shells, and young people are playing surfing in the sea.

The people here live a really leisurely life.

Ye Qi liked the sea since he was a child. Sitting in a taxi, looking at the blue sea and the white and fine sandy beach outside the window, he couldn't help saying: "Sunshine, sandy beach, sea water, the scenery of this city is much more beautiful than the City of the Moon. It's gone!"

Shao Qingge joked: "How about we move our family here? Anyway, I still have a lot of money in my card, so I can buy a sea view villa to live here."

Ye Qi waved his hand hastily: "Don't bother, the most important thing is to go back as soon as possible. Everything in this world feels unreal to me, just like in a dream. People's lives are so beautiful that people can't believe it."

The beautiful beach can't see a little bit of garbage, but unlike some tourist attractions in reality, the beach is dirty by tourists.The sea water here is as clear as it has been washed, and everyone has a smile on their faces, as if they don't need to worry about anything.

If there is a heaven, this is probably the so-called "heaven", right?

But for some reason, seeing the same smiles on the faces of the people playing at the beach, Ye Qi felt a chill down his spine.

The car quickly arrived at the hotel.

Tang Ci booked rooms for them in advance, four double rooms, two girls, Liu Qiao and Qu Wanyue, one room, Ye Qi and Mr. Shao, one room, Lao Mo and Long Sen, and the remaining room. Xiao Lou lives with Yu Hanjiang.

After completing the procedures, everyone took the elevator to the 17th floor and put down their luggage.

The room is big and clean. The floor-to-ceiling windows on one wall provide a panoramic view of the sea view not far away. There is also a large bathtub that can accommodate two adults. It is worthy of a five-star hotel. The decoration is luxurious and the price should not be cheap.

Xiao Lou just wanted to send a message to Tang Ci to say thank you, but the other party took the initiative to send a message: "The restaurant on the seventh floor, let's eat first, I will welcome you."

Xiao Lou took everyone to the restaurant on the seventh floor.

Following the waiter into the VIP room, he saw Tang Ci sitting in a wheelchair at a glance.

The man looked very young, wearing a white short-sleeved shirt, and his clothes were spotlessly clean.

A thin blanket covered his legs.He has a handsome appearance, exquisite facial features, and a sickly pale complexion, but he does not have the slightest "weakness" of a patient, but his eyes are calm. Just sitting there is full of aura, which makes people dare not underestimate him.

After seeing Xiao Lou, he nodded politely and said, "You're here?"

Xiao Lou smiled at him, and took the initiative to introduce to his teammates: "This is the director of the Intelligence Bureau, Tang Ci, Mr. Tang. As for my teammates, Mr. Tang should already know them well, so there is no need to introduce them one by one, right?"

Tang Ci said: "Well, everyone, please sit down."

Except for Shao Qingge who had met Tang Ci before, Ye Qi, Liu Qiao and the others saw this legendary Director of the Intelligence Bureau for the first time, and they were very curious, but when they met his cold gaze, everyone was not happy. It was too presumptuous, so I had to sit quietly around the round table.

Yu Hanjiang asked bluntly, "Where's my brother?"

Tang Ci said: "He encountered a little trouble and couldn't get away. Don't worry, Huaying went to meet him."

Xiao Lou asked doubtfully, "Then it belongs to the old man?"

"Gui Lao has a dinner party tonight, and I can't come for the time being. I'm here to receive everyone, and discuss the next plan by the way. You must be hungry after riding the train for so long. Let's chat while eating." Tang Ci pressed the button The service bell said in a low voice, "Room 3 is ready for serving."

The sumptuous meal arrived quickly.

Garlic prawns, spicy crabs, steamed lobsters, white clam tofu soup, abalone, as well as various shells, pipi shrimp, spicy fried razor clams... This big table of seafood makes everyone's mouth water when they are hungry .

Tang Ci explained: "Sun City is rich in seafood, I wonder if everyone is used to eating it?"

Ye Qi nodded hurriedly: "I'm used to it! We eat beef and mutton every day in Moon City, and haven't eaten seafood for a long time."

Shao Qingge said with a smile: "Mr. Tang will spend a lot of money."

Tang Ci said: "You're welcome, let's eat first and then talk."

With his words, everyone began to feast on it unceremoniously.Tang Ci didn't peel the shrimps and crabs with his hands, but only filled a bowl of fresh shell soup and drank it slowly. He said that he was not very hungry after eating.

After the seafood on the table was cleaned up, Xiao Lou asked, "Mr. Tang, is your plan to team up now?"

Tang Ci said indifferently: "Brother Jiu said, after we meet up, we should do one or two weekly tasks first to get acquainted with each other. Otherwise, if we go directly to the S-level secret room, we will not have a tacit understanding and may drag each other down."

Xiao Lou also agrees with this decision: "Indeed, we are not familiar with the cards of the four players at all. We will learn more about them first, and it will be convenient to go to the S-level secret room to cooperate. I just don't know what type of weekly routine will be this week. chamber of secrets?"

The week is randomly generated every time, and it is possible to choose arbitrarily among hearts, spades, diamonds and clubs.But Shao Qingge's Insect King Card can only be used in the secret room of spades and clubs.In other words, if this week's Zhou Chang's secret room is not spades and clubs, Tang Ci's legs still cannot be cured.

Seeing Xiao Lou's thoughts, Tang Ci said calmly; "My wheelchair can also be brought into Zhou Chang's secret room. I rely on the wheelchair and can still walk. I have already tested this, so even if I get hearts and diamonds randomly, Don't worry either."

Xiao Lou breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said, "The weekly tasks will only start on Saturday, and we will get to know each other for the next few days. Then we will cancel the contract, and when Brother Jiu comes back, everyone will sign in Brother Jiu's book together? "

Tang Ci said: "Brother Nine means that you will be the captain, and the four of us will cancel the contract and sign to you."

Xiao Lou was startled: "Brother Jiu really said that?"

Tang Ci nodded: "Well, he hopes that you and Yu Hanjiang will lead the team this time. Besides, it's the same everywhere you sign in. As long as everyone is on the same contract, they are a team."

There is really no need to worry about this point. Since Lu Jiuchuan believes in them so much, Xiao Lou no longer refuses, saying: "Okay, we are going to attend the concert of Goddess Luo Yan tonight. Any news of the killer?"

Tang Ci shook his head: "Their operation is concealed this time, not to mention me, even the ninth brother can't find out the specific target of the organization's operation. The ninth brother only knows that suddenly a large number of hunters came to the city of the sun, so send us a message An alarm has been issued. Mr. Gui is using his contacts to investigate, and I have also used my intelligence network. From the current point of view, the concert is the most likely event.”

He opened the laptop he was carrying with him and pulled up a data sheet.

It is the floor plan of Luo Yan's concert site.

The huge stadium is big enough to hold nearly 10 spectators, and all the tickets have been sold out.Each seat is marked with red and blue, and Xiao Lou asked puzzledly, "What do the different colors mean?"

Tang Ci's eyes flashed sharply, and he said slowly: "The blue is the ticket bought by the aborigines, and the red is the challenger."

Hearing this, Yu Hanjiang couldn't help but frowned, pointed to the distribution map on the screen and said, "You mean, the tickets for these red seats were all bought by challengers? Why are they so concentrated? Judging from the distribution map , Areas A, B, E, and F are all aborigines, while areas C and D are all challengers, aren’t the concert tickets going on sale at the same time?”

Tang Ci explained: "I hacked into the ticketing system of the official website and found that they had set up an internal program. Although the tickets for this concert were released at the same time for everyone to buy together, the internal program classified the seats. When rushing to buy, you need to register your ID card, and once it is found that the ID card of the ticket buyer is a foreigner, other areas will be automatically locked, and you can only buy tickets for areas C and D.”

Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang looked at each other, and at the same time a chill rose up their spines.

ID card locked ticket?Is this forcing the challenger to sit in areas C and D?

Xiao Lou couldn't believe it and said: "For a large-scale concert with 10 people, by secretly classifying and selling tickets, the challengers are secretly concentrated in a certain area. What are they trying to do?"

Tang Ci said: "This is also what I doubt."

In fact, if Tang Ci hadn't been a top hacker who could hack into the ticketing system of the official website and discover this secret, no one would have thought that concert tickets could be divided according to ID card.

The challengers and aborigines who bought the tickets certainly didn't know that there would be a problem with the location of the tickets they grabbed. 10 tickets are released at the same time, and they are sold out within 5 minutes. Those who can get them will only feel lucky. Who cares whether the location is in Zone A or Zone C?

Ye Qi whispered, "If the hunters did it, wouldn't they have planted bombs in areas C and D?"

Tang Ci shook his head: "In the main city, explosives and guns are all controlled items and cannot be used. Many of our cards will also be banned. Besides, there are security checks on-site for such a large-scale concert, and it is impossible to bury them. Drop the bomb."

Ye Qi blushed and said, "I'm just guessing, otherwise, why did they gather the challengers in one area?"

Yu Hanjiang frowned.

The hunters have a very strong hatred for challengers like them, but with tens of thousands of challengers gathered together, including a large number of aborigines, they will not blow up the concert venue, right?What is the conspiracy?

Seeing that the time had reached 06:30, Yu Hanjiang stood up and said, "Xiao Lou and I will go to the concert in person."

Tang Ci looked at him: "Where did you buy the tickets from?"

Shao Qingge said with a smile: "I bought two scalper tickets at a high price on the Internet, both of which are in Zone A, and I can even sit."

Originally, Shao Qingge wanted to buy a few more tickets, but the concert was about to start, and there were very few scalpers online, so it was not easy to get two. He sent the redemption code of the e-ticket to Yu Hanjiang's phone: "You can directly Just use the ticket code to go to the door to pick up the ticket.”

Tang Ci looked at the two of them and said, "Two be careful."
