Something's wrong with my roommate

Chapter 406 Help Me Find Someone

The reason why Xu Cheng borrowed money from Ed and asked for leave, of course, was not because he had nothing to do, but because he was going to find Colin's whereabouts.

It turned out that Xu Cheng mistakenly thought that Colin ran away with his own money, and planned to find someone to teach him a lesson.

It was only later learned from a yellow-haired man that not only did Colin not run away, but he followed his instructions and looked for people to borrow money everywhere. As a result, the money was robbed and the person disappeared.

Xu Cheng felt a little guilty about this, if it wasn't for his order, Colin wouldn't have had this kind of experience.

So today, taking advantage of nothing, he planned to get Colin back.

When he came to the garage, Xu Cheng found that the driver McGee had gone out. Although there were other cars in the garage, he didn't have a key.

Not knowing when McGee would come back, Xu Cheng walked around the garage, and soon brought out an old bicycle.

Although it looks old, it should be a high-end product. There is no damage, and even the air in the tires is still there.

Xu Cheng got on his bicycle, drove out of the gate under the surprised eyes of the guards, and sped down the winding mountain road.

Half an hour later, Xu Cheng returned to the castle of the Violet family.

This castle belongs to the public area, and there are a lot of public facilities nearby, such as sports fields, cinemas, supermarkets, bars, etc. It is like a small town, and all the collaterals that have not been selected live here.

And the blood descendants of the direct line also live in their own fiefs or manors, and will not mix with collateral lines.

Xu Cheng rode his bicycle around the castle and entered the center of the town.

Even in winter, it is very lively here, many people are shopping, and there are children building snowmen and playing snowball fights on the street.

Xu Cheng is considered a celebrity now, so he pulled up his collar to cover half of his face, so as not to be recognized by possible enthusiastic fans.

Relying on his memory, he rode his bicycle to an alley, made several turns and then entered an alley.

A man was squatting under the eaves to avoid the snow. Seeing that Xu Cheng had no plans to stop, he immediately jumped out to stop him.

"If you don't understand the rules, pay the toll!"

Xu Cheng didn't stop, and a wheel knocked him over.

The man fell to the ground, struggling to get up, but Xu Cheng stepped on his chest, and then lay down again.

"Help me keep an eye on the car, this is the parking fee."

Xu Cheng took out a banknote from his pocket, stuffed it into the opponent's pocket, and punched a hole in the wall next to him.

"If the car is lost, I will ride you back, understand?"

The anger on the man's face turned pale, and he nodded repeatedly.

Only then did Xu Cheng pass the man and walk in. There was a secret door in the alley. After opening the secret door, he entered a spacious courtyard.

There are several rooms in the courtyard, and each room is full of heat, and various shouts and shouts can be heard.

This is an underground casino, and it is also a place for daily recreation of collateral descendants.

The reason why it is so secretive is not that the direct blood is forbidden to gamble, but that regular casinos are opened by the direct blood, and the general collateral cannot afford to spend, so they can only come to this kind of place.

Xu Cheng walked up to a thug guarding the door: "I want to see old Buck with three arms."

Seeing Xu Cheng's underage appearance, the thug waved his hand impatiently: "Where did you come from, kid, get out."

Xu Cheng had no choice but to repeat the old trick, punching a hole in the concrete wall next to him: "I can't hear what you are talking about."

The thug's eyes almost popped out of their sockets, he swallowed, his dull face suddenly turned into a smile: "You...you please come with me."

Like a dog's leg, the thugs brought Xu Cheng to a room on the third floor of the casino.

The thugs entered the door first, and came out after more than ten seconds, inviting Xu Cheng to enter.

The room was a simple office. An obese middle-aged man was sitting on the boss's chair with his legs crossed. Behind him was a scantily clad girl who was giving him a massage.

This obese middle-aged man is the three-handed old Buck, whose nickname is a bit like the four-handed sword Willie.

Willy got his nickname because of his speed with a sword, while Buck Sr. got his nickname because he was a thief when he was young.

Later, I didn't know how to make a fortune. He also opened an underground casino and became the number one person in the local area. It is said that he has friendship with direct descendants.

With his cigar in his mouth, Old Buck squinted at Xu Cheng: "Who are you? What do you want to see me for?"

"Help me find someone."

Xu Cheng took out the money he borrowed from Ed from his pocket, withdrew one-third of it, and threw the rest on the table.

Old Buck is already a local leader, not only opening an underground casino, but also taking care of many other businesses, and finding people is one of them.

Old Buck glanced at the money on the table, his face slightly gloomy: "Too little, at least [-] for someone."

If it weren't for his subordinates who said that this guy could punch a hole in the wall, he wouldn't be so polite at all, and would have called someone to beat this guy out with a stick.

"Ten thousand..."

Xu Cheng borrowed one month's salary from Ed, which was less than 1 yuan, and [-] yuan was equivalent to his salary for working in the manor for a year.

He reached out and took back another third of the money on the table: "I only have so much, find someone for me, and I owe you a favor."

Old Buck's face darkened, he took out a pistol from his pocket, and slapped it heavily on the table: "Are you here to play me?"

Accompanied by his stern shouting, there was the sound of running outside, and in a blink of an eye, seven or eight thugs broke into the room and stared fiercely at Xu Cheng.

Without looking back, Xu Cheng took back all the money left on the table and put it in his pocket.

Then he raised his foot and kicked backwards, hitting the chest of a thug behind him.

The opponent was kicked and flew backwards, knocked over the people behind him, flew out of the room, hit the guardrail of the corridor, and fell downstairs with a scream.

boom!
Old Buck had already picked up his pistol and shot Xu Cheng.

Xu Cheng dodged, jumped over the desk, and kicked Old Buck in the chest.

"what!"

The scantily clad girl ran away screaming, and Buck Sr. was kicked and fell to the ground.

He endured the pain and raised the pistol, and the next second his hand was empty.

Xu Cheng dodged the pistol, turned around and shot back one after another.

Accompanied by the intense gunshots and the girl's screams, several thugs were all shot in the thigh by pistols, and fell to the ground screaming.

Xu Cheng left the last bullet and aimed it at Old Buck on the ground.

"Wait a minute, sir!"

Old Buck raised his hands and said with an apologetic smile, "Looking for someone? No problem at all, I'll serve you right away."

Xu Cheng said, "But I don't have 1 yuan."

"I have, I have."

Old Buck was very knowledgeable, and quickly said: "I have 2 yuan, of which 1 yuan is the cost of finding someone, and the remaining 1 yuan is a gift for you."

Xu Cheng smiled: "Then I will have to visit you often in the future."

Old Buck's smile became stiff all of a sudden. He wanted to spend money to eliminate the disaster, but he didn't want to be used as a cash machine.

Ten minutes later, the injured subordinates were all taken away. Xu Cheng was sitting on a recliner in the office, with Old Buck waiting on his side, and the scantily clad girl cast seductive looks at him from time to time.

Soon, a thug came in cautiously, whispering in Old Buck's ear.

Old Buck smiled and came to Xu Cheng's side: "Sir, the Colin Charles you are looking for has been found, and he is locked in the dungeon. If you need it, I can arrange for you to enter the dungeon to meet him."

The dungeon is a place specially used by the Violet family to detain some prisoners. It is not easy to get out after entering.

When Xu Cheng heard that Colin was still alive, he was slightly relieved, and then got up to leave.

"It's okay to help me arrange, but you won't help me arrange a trap by the way?"

Old Buck was slightly startled, and hurriedly followed.

"How could it be? I have always kept myself safe and will never seek trouble on purpose."

"really?"

Xu Cheng glanced at the old Buck: "I know that there is a direct blood standing behind you. You can ask the other party for help and see if you can kill me."

Old Buck was able to change from a thief to a local snake who opened an underground casino and had dozens of younger brothers. He must have the help of his direct blood behind him.

To put it bluntly, it was a black glove, otherwise it would not be his turn to be a thief to earn this shady money.

Old Buck's silly smile froze on his face. He really planned to deal with Xu Cheng first, and then seek help from the backer behind him to kill this dangerous guy.

Now that Xu Cheng took the initiative to bring it up, it made him startled.

Seeing Xu Cheng walking away, he quickly followed.

"You are joking, my old Buck is definitely not a person who stabbed in the back, we can be friends."

Old Buck sent Xu Cheng all the way out of the underground casino to the alley outside.

The gatekeeper who was showing Xu Cheng's car was lying on the ground, bleeding from the back of his head. He must have been attacked by surprise, but the bicycle was gone.

Xu Cheng: "..."

Old Buck thought it was Xu Cheng's doing, so he didn't say a word.

Xu Cheng said, "I didn't do it, and my car is gone."

Old Buck was furious instantly, and yelled at the younger brothers behind him: "Who did it? Who dares to behave wildly in Lao Tzu's territory, go find him immediately."

After yelling, he immediately turned his head and smiled apologetically at Xu Cheng: "I'm not talking about you, please don't get me wrong."

Xu Cheng stretched out his hand and patted him on the shoulder: "Don't worry, today is the first and last time, and I won't trouble you again in the future."

After finishing speaking, he turned and left without waiting for Old Buck to answer.

The smile on Old Buck's face gradually disappeared and became gloomy.

If he was ten years younger, he would definitely not let it go, even if both sides were hurt, he would have to make the other party pay the price.

But now, thinking of the child in his family who was less than ten years old, Old Buck could only sigh helplessly.

……

After losing his car, Xu Cheng had no choice but to walk all the way back to the castle of the Violet family, and met the person sent by Old Buck.

Under the arrangement of the other party, Xu Cheng came to the dungeon smoothly.

The dungeon, as the name suggests, is a prison built underground. The environment here is dark, cold and humid. Even if you are not punished and tortured, you will get sick after staying for a long time.

In a certain cell, Xu Cheng finally saw the missing Colin.

"Archer?"

Colin yelled in surprise: "Why are you here? Has your injury healed?"

Seeing that he didn't look injured, Xu Cheng felt relieved: "I'm here to look for you, how did you get locked in here?"

"I'm wronged."

Colin looked unhappy: "I wanted to borrow money from someone, but the two guards insisted that I stole their money, and then locked me up."

After the money for buying medicine was robbed by Mark and other villains, Colin originally wanted to find someone else to borrow money, but he met two guards on the way, and was imprisoned directly by the other party's desire to steal the money.

According to the laws of the Violet family, stealing must be imprisoned for at least three months.

"Don't worry, I'll get you out."

"Don't mess around. I'll be locked up for at most three months before I go out. There's food and drink here."

After saying goodbye to Colin, Xu Cheng found the prison guard and asked who locked Colin in.

Seeing the prison guard practicing Tai Chi, Xu Cheng took out a banknote from his pocket and stuffed it into the prison guard's hand.

The prison guard looked down at the denomination of the banknote, and his smile became a little more sincere: "It was the former captain of the guard, Willie, who asked him to be locked in."

"Four-handed sword Willie?"

Xu Cheng frowned slightly. Willie did this obviously to prevent Colin from buying medicine for Xu Cheng, which also meant that Willie had been sending people to watch every move of Xu Cheng and Colin.

But is it necessary to do so?
Was it so much time and effort spent just to prevent Xu Cheng from appearing in the selection assessment?
It's a pity that Willie is dead, so there is no way to know what he thinks.

"Can you let people go early?"

"At least let the current captain of the guards order the release."

Xu Cheng took out two bills and stuffed them into the prison guard's hands.

The prison guard smiled: "In two weeks, the dungeon will release a group of prisoners, and you can add your friend's name to it."

Xu Cheng stuffed a few more banknotes, but this time the prison guard refused to let go. It seemed that Colin could only be wronged to stay in the dungeon for a while. Fortunately, the prison guard promised to take good care of him.

After one matter was resolved, Xu Cheng felt a lot more relaxed, and went back to the dungeon to chat with Colin for a while before taking his leave.

Just as he walked through the narrow corridor of the dungeon and was about to leave, a middle-aged man who was walking in a hurry suddenly emerged from the corner and almost collided with him.

Xu Cheng took a step back to avoid it, the middle-aged man looked up at him, and his face froze instantly.

But the middle-aged man immediately reacted, lowered his head, and left in a hurry.

Xu Cheng looked at the back of the other party, frowning slightly.

Because of the meeting with Colin just now, Xu Cheng put down his collar and showed his face, and the reaction of the middle-aged man was obviously that he knew him.

Of course, there are quite a few people who know Xu Cheng. As long as they have seen yesterday's selection and assessment, there is no one who does not know him.

But because of his natural ability, Xu Cheng is extremely sensitive to emotions.

He could feel that the middle-aged man became extremely nervous the moment he recognized him, his breathing was stagnant, and his muscles were tense, which meant that he was afraid.

afraid of what?
Xu Cheng thought for a while, then quietly followed.

Outside the dungeon, the middle-aged man rushed to the parking lot, got into his car and started it, drove on the road, looked back in the rearview mirror, and then heaved a deep sigh of relief.

I didn't expect to be so unlucky that I would run into this mixed bastard. Shouldn't he be in Snow Mountain Manor?How could you run into the dungeon?

But if you think about it carefully, the other party has just joined Snow Mountain Manor, so he doesn't know him at all, and he won't reveal his whereabouts.

At this moment, the phone rang suddenly.

The middle-aged man took out his mobile phone to look at the incoming call, hesitated for a few seconds, and then chose to answer.
