068 Seize the opportunity

Niu Qingliu: “4,5,6,7,8,9,10!”

Shirley: “7,8,9,10,J.”

Niu Qingliu pointed to the playing cards helplessly and said, "I have six pieces, why do you have only five pieces?"

Shirley smiled shyly, took back the five playing cards, and then subconsciously glanced at Zuo Rong beside her.

Niu Qingliu was numb.

He was full of questions now, that is, Zuo Rong is not as handsome as the level of being so handsome, so why did he fascinate the two foreign maids who were first meeting?

Niu Qingliu glanced at the counter again. Sure enough, the maid named Pamela who was standing at the counter was also staring at Zuo Rong.

I'm numb, really numb.

Niu Qingliu sighed and shook the only two remaining cards in his hand: "I'll report double."

Zuo Rong shook his head: "I can't afford it."

Shirley: "I can't afford it, either..."

Niu Qingliu threw the last two Qs on the table and smiled and said, "You guys lost again."

"Master, you are so awesome!" Shirley praised seemingly sincerely.

Zuo Rong plucked his hands perfunctorily: "Awesome."

Niu Qingliu scratched his head: "Why do I feel like you didn't seem to be playing seriously?"

Zuo Rong: "We are all very serious, mainly because you have excellent skills in the card, so you have won so many times."

Shirley nodded very well.

Niu Qingliu looked at these two people, and the first word that came to his mind was "House and wife follow". Then he looked down at the playing cards scattered on the table. He always felt like he had won the game but lost his life.

So Niu Qingliu patted the table and sighed, "Forget it, I don't want to play anymore."

At this moment, Pamela walked out from behind the counter and smiled and said, "Because it is the Spring Festival, our store will be closed early. In less than half an hour, business will be closed."

Niu Qingliu was surprised: "Is it so early? I remember your store is usually open late..."

Pamela still smiled: "I'm sorry, but this is true for the holiday."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shirley stood up and walked to Pamela.

Then, she asked in the common term for the magic world: "Why should we go so far ahead? This is not the case."

Pamela also answered in another world language: "Because I decided to change my plan. We just found out that guy's name, but I still know nothing about the rest. If there are irrelevant people, it is not convenient for us to ask core questions. Just close early, then keep him and interrogate carefully."

Shirley: "But how do you keep him? What excuses?"

Pamela said meaningfully: "I just found out that he seems to have a good impression of you..."

Shirley immediately shook her head: "I don't think that's good, I don't think so at all. And captain, have you emphasized to me that a high-level magician must have the ethics of a high-level magician?"

Pamela: "I didn't ask you to do anything to break the bottom line, I just pretended to seduce you."

Shirley: "This sounds like a lot...but, since Captain, I'll give it a try."

Pamela nodded with a smile: "Leave it to you."

After the two agreed, they turned around and saw Niu Qingliu and Zuo Rong standing up as well.

Niu Qingliu: "We won't play anymore, let's pay. We will pay our own."

Zuo Rong: "I'll treat you?"

Niu Qingliu: "Haha, why are you and your brother pretending to be generous!"

The two of them laughed and paid for the drinks. Of course, the main thing that made them laugh was Niu Qingliu, and Zuo Rong was really not joking.

After paying the bill, the two of them were about to leave. But at this moment, Shirley stood in front of Zuo Rong.

The blonde and ponytail lady in a maid outfit, said softly with a shy look on her face, "Master Zuo Rong, I think...I want to ask, are you free now? Can I talk to you alone?"

Niu Qingliu was dumbfounded. He thought he had been numb for a long time, but at this time he realized that today's shock could reach a higher level.

Zuo Rong was also a little stunned and asked back, "What are you going to talk to me?"

Niu Qingliu couldn't stand it anymore and pushed Zuo Rong's back hard: "Are you an incompetent waste? Don't pretend to be stupid. Anyway, you are single, so why don't you have a good chat with others?"

Zuo Rong looked back and saw a hint of bitterness in his eyes.

He knew that his best friend must have misunderstood and thought Shirley really wanted to happen to him. However, Zuo Rong understood that although Shirley had good acting skills, the other party definitely did not like him. Perhaps, it was more like the feeling of a detective locking in a suspect or an important witness...

However, Niu Qingliu was still talking:

"Don't waste your chances, you kid. This is the only advice I can give you. Play slowly, chat slowly, and I'll leave first."

After saying that, Niu Qingliu walked out of the cafe.

Pamela walked to the door, hung a sign of [Stop Business] on the door handle outside, and closed the door.

She turned around and walked to Zuo Rong, with a slightly deep smile on her face and said, "We can have a good chat."

Zuo Rong: "Isn't Shirley going to talk to me?"

"We can all talk about all three," Pamela said meaningfully, "you know what to talk about."

Zuo Rong seemed to have not realized it and asked, "What do you think I should understand?"

Pamela raised her index finger and fluorescently glowed her fingertips.

Obviously, this is not a miracle that existing conventional technological means can achieve, but for magical civilization, this demonstration is quite easy.

Zuo Rong suddenly widened his eyes and said in a lost voice: "You are really magicians!"

Pamela and Shirley looked at each other, and their eyes were a little excited.

Then Pamela asked in a deep voice: "Have you ever seen a magician?"

Zuo Rong nodded, then shrank back.

Seeing this, Shirley said softly: "Don't be afraid, we are senior magicians sent by the association and will not do evil things."

Zuo Rong swallowed, his face nervous, and even his voice trembled: "I met two female magicians a few days ago and were robbed... My wallet and cell phone were stolen by them. And they not only robbed me, but also used me for experiments!"

Pamela asked quickly, "What experiment did they do on you?"

Zuo Rong seemed to have recalled some terrifying scene and said in panic: "I don't know, I don't remember anything... I just remember being tied to a magic circle by them... I don't know what they were going to do. What happened later... they said I was useless, so they let me go..."

Shirley was suddenly a little indignant: "It must be a particularly dangerous experiment!"

Pamela analyzed: "It is already very dangerous to directly operate the memory. What's more, their evil deeds must be more than that. The question is, what is their intention."

Zuo Rong looked at the two magicians in front of him and tried hard to continue to perform his acting skills. After all, it is his only feasible strategy to deceive the other party's trust and provide wrong information in this way.

"I don't know, I don't know..."

Zuo Rong said tremblingly, and suddenly, he felt his hands being held.

Shirley held his hand and comforted softly: "Don't worry, you'll be fine with us."

However, Pamela still analyzed expressionlessly, and seemed to have not completely believed Zuo Rong's words.
