Chapter 90
"Back door?" The woman thought for a while, "There should be, whose house doesn't have a back door?" She thought for a while, and then said, "Speaking of the back door... I heard that someone saw it at the back door of the gambling house. A furtive figure..."

"How to say?" Cheng Muqing raised his eyebrows.

"I know a stall owner. She passes through the back door of the casino every day when she goes home. She said that she always sees a tall man in tight clothes recently." The woman said, "I don't know who he is waiting for. We usually It's late enough to close the stall, I didn't expect him to leave even later than us."

"Is the stall owner still there?"

"She didn't come today, but we all know about it." The woman turned her head and looked at the stall next door.

The stall owner next door also affirmed this statement.

Cheng Muqing was thoughtful, "Then... is he just waiting there for the past few days?"

"Hmm..." the woman nodded, "It's because of this period that I was so impressed."

"Thank you." Cheng Muqing stood up and looked at the casino.

"Girl, don't you want to block your husband-in-law? Oh, don't waste so much energy. If you have the skill, you might as well go home and hide the money. Once he dies, you can enjoy yourself. We women can't keep live a life with a man."

"..."

What this big sister said is really... interesting?Cheng Muqing smiled, took out the broken silver and threw it to her, "I bought this hairpin."

"Alas!" The woman gritted her teeth as soon as she took over.After confirming that it was genuine silver, he wiped it clean and put it in his pocket.When she looked up, the girl just now was gone.She shook her head, "It's a silly girl who has so much money and regards men as important."

At this time, the "silly girl" had already arrived at the gambling house, she covered her cloak over her head, only showing a pair of eyes, and walked towards the gambling house.

Seeing her appearance like this, the two servants at the gate of the gambling house subconsciously stopped her.

"Get out of the way, I'm here to play with money!" Cheng Muqing raised his hand, and slapped the boy away.

The boy staggered two steps and looked at her in surprise.

Is this person male or female?Hand strength is so big?The boy quickly regained his composure, "If you really come here to play, you will be aboveboard..."

"Here." Cheng Muqing threw out two silver coins, "Is this sincere enough?"

The silver was heavy, and the servant held it in his hand, looking at his companion beside him in dismay.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Cheng Muqing has already stepped into the gambling house.

Compared with those big gambling houses in the capital, this is simply unbelievable.The whole room is filled with the stench of sweat and stinky feet.Cheng Muqing gathered the cloak, covered his nose, and slowed down his breathing.

"Come, come, come! Press big!"

"Open! Open!"

"Three past four!"

The house was filled with all kinds of chaotic noises, and all kinds of people stood on both sides, shouting loudly.

Cheng Muqing raised his eyes to scan around, and finally saw Lin Heng.She walked quickly and came to him.

"Lin Heng."

Hearing the familiar voice, Lin Heng turned around subconsciously. When he saw her, he was taken aback, as if in disbelief, "Ah Qing? How could you come in?"

"Looking for you."

"Leave it to me here, you go out."

"You're here, why are you leaving?" Cheng Muqing elbowed him, "Tell me, why are you here?"

Speaking of this, Lin Heng turned his eyes away, and looked at the man who was having fun not far away.

The man was wearing a big hood so that his face could not be seen clearly.The clothes he was wearing looked ordinary, but if you looked closely, you could see that the fabric was faintly reflecting light.

It should be made of fine silk and satin.

"Oh? This is it?" Cheng Muqing was obviously taken aback. Is he the young master that the woman said?
"That person is very special." Lin Heng said, "He has a great gambling addiction, and he is fearless in betting."

Cheng Muqing remained silent, staring patiently at the man in front of him.She touched her chin, "How did you find out that there was something wrong with him?"

"In the past few days, I have been in and out of various gambling houses in the capital, and found that there are different people in each gambling house. These people include rich children, and there are also poor people who gamble until their wives are separated... These people are without exception. , or take a small gamble for fun, or desperately want to win. Those who can persist in the casino for a day, what they have in common is that they are fearless and have no worries."

He omits the part where he pretends to be a beggar.

"Only this man, he is clearly a kid from a rich family, but he wants to hide in this place to gamble. He plays a lot, and every time he leaves, he can pay the money in one lump sum... According to my statistics, these few days, he has less money. Say, I lost 1000 taels."

"One thousand?" Cheng Muqing was a little surprised.

1000 taels of silver, enough for how many families live for ten years?This guy doesn't take money seriously!Cheng Muqing couldn't help swallowing, at the same time, she was a little surprised that Lin Heng could observe so carefully.

"I didn't expect you to be very careful." Cheng Muqing smiled.

Lin Heng, who was praised, lowered his head, and two blushes appeared on his cheeks.

"Huh? Someone came in." Cheng Muqing said.

I saw two teenagers in the same clothes walking towards the door, and the two quickly locked on the young man and walked towards him.

"These people are the people who follow him every day!" A Feng said from the side.

Sure enough, the two teenagers stood behind Brother Young Master, one on each side.

"Big! Big! Give it another shot! I can win!" Brother Young Master didn't seem to notice the two extra people behind him. He leaned forward and stared at the game.

"Tsk tsk tsk..." Cheng Muqing shook his head, "You must stay away from gambling."

When the dice is rolled, it is big.Brother Young Master held the circle with both hands, and there was a violent shock, as if he was shouting.

"Master, madam asked you to go back earlier today." The guard took the opportunity to speak.

"Tell her, I have something to do, don't come to me." Brother Gongzi became impatient in an instant.

"Master, go back quickly." The guard said, "Madam said, master found out."

"If you find it, you will find it! Get out of the way!" Brother Young Master said angrily, "Tell him that no matter how much he locks me up, I can escape! Young master is having a good time playing now, I advise you not to spoil the fun!"

The two guards wanted to say something, but the young master kicked them away.

Cheng Muqing sighed, "This isn't gambling, it's simply devoid of humanity."

"Yeah." Lin Heng nodded lightly.

The two stayed in the casino for a long time, during which Cheng Muqing even played a couple of games in order not to attract others' attention.She accepts as soon as it is good, and stops immediately once she loses money.

As the sky gradually darkened, Cheng Muqing and the croupier asked for two bowls of tea.

The croupier served tea without saying a word.

The hourglass in the gambling house passed by, and the watchmen outside the door were beating the gong and shouting.

Hai hour has arrived.

After betting the last round, the man in the veiled hat put away his purse and walked into the gambling house.

He's going to the back door?Cheng Muqing stood up and followed.

But before taking two steps, that person appeared again.

In order to prevent him from seeing the clues, Cheng Muqing had no choice but to bite the bullet and walk in.

"Are you going to relieve yourself?" The casino boss looked at her with a smile, "This way."
