"Waldo, we've been exposed. The casino has their eyes on us! They even sent someone to catch us in a car. That guy looks fierce, and he's not a good person. They might even kill us … "
Because he was too nervous, Checkered Shirt's trembling fingers dialed the wrong number twice. When he dialed the number, he immediately spoke.
"Calm down, man," the man named Waldo said on the other end of the phone. "We just made a little money from the casino. No casino will kill people for a mere few tens of thousands of euros."
"That's because you haven't seen those guys. The leader is like a psychopathic serial killer, and he has a group of men who are like the Terminator! They want to catch us and put us in their car!!! God knows what will happen to them. I've seen similar movies. They will torture us, tie us up, electrocute us, and torture us cruelly until we tell them everything we know. They will even tell us who the girl we liked in elementary school was. "
"Hey … Philip, listen to me. You need to calm down. This is how the casinos do things. They will bluff and try to break through your psychological defenses, forcing you to make mistakes. But as I said before, they don't want to get into trouble unless it's absolutely necessary. By the way, they have already found you. How did you get away?"
"To be honest, I don't know. There was a guy dressed like the Green Arrow, but without an arrow or bow. He suddenly jumped down from above, just like in a movie. It took him only a minute to get rid of the casino's thugs. Justina and I escaped while they were fighting." Philip hesitated. "Did we just meet a superhero, like Batman and the Green Arrow?"
"I don't know, but you're right. We should go. Where are you now? Hurry back to the hotel and pack up. We'll leave in half an hour. " Waldo paused, but this time, no one answered. "Philip, Philip, are you still listening?"
Phillip hid his phone behind his back and looked at the masked man who was walking toward him. He did not feel any more relaxed than he did when he faced Baldy. The masked man was a ruthless character who had taken down four people in one go. Now that he was in front of Phillip instead of the black Buick, it meant that he had taken care of everyone in the casino, including Baldy.
"You … what do you want? The money we made from the casino?" Zhang Heng stopped in front of Justina when he heard that.
Zhang Heng stopped in front of Justina. Not only did she not show any fear, but she even puffed out her chest. She had a lot of money. Although she only worked in a bar in a small town, she didn't think she was worse than her peers in big cities. All she needed was an opportunity, and that was why she always wanted to make money.
Because only by earning enough money could she leave that lethargic town and go to a bigger stage. Therefore, if possible, she also wanted to keep the money in her hands. She didn't care if she had to sacrifice something else for it.
To her surprise, the masked man didn't look at her small handbag with cash, nor did he look at her cleavage that she was so proud of. Instead, he chose to take the bottle of red wine in her hand.
Zhang Heng smashed the bottle on the ground, and the red wine splattered all over the floor. At the same time, the rich aroma of the wine made Justina's heart ache. Even if she didn't drink this bottle of red wine, she could sell it for two or three hundred euros. It was such a pity that it was brutally smashed. However, the masked man in front of her didn't seem to have such thoughts.
Zhang Heng squatted down and found what he was looking for among the broken glass. It was a miniature GPS device, waterproof and attached to the inside of the bottle. It was hidden by the paper logo on the outside. Unless the bottle was broken, it would be difficult for ordinary people to find it.
Zhang Heng then threw the GPS device and the phone that the bald man used to track the GPS device into the trash can beside him.
Phillip also noticed that what Zhang Heng had done so far was to help him. Just as he was about to say something, Zhang Heng stopped him and asked at the same time, "What's wrong?
"Where do you live?"
"Uh … we are staying at the Port Palace Hotel, but we are planning to leave. We will go back and pack up." Phillip said. Zhang Heng's accent sounded a little strange, but considering that the other party was Asian, he didn't care too much.
"Very well, lead the way," Zhang Heng said.
"Ha … Are you coming with us? But how do I know if you have any other intentions? Don't misunderstand, I'm just saying that I'm grateful that you saved us, but that doesn't mean that we can trust you immediately, right? I've seen a lot of movies. It's not against you, but some bad guys will pretend to be friendly and approach the protagonist first. But it turns out that they have a bigger secret behind them. "
"You don't have a choice," Zhang Heng said.
"Okay, I understand."
Zhang Heng's words quickly made Phillip realize the reality. After that, he obediently led the way and brought Zhang Heng to their residence.
The hotel they stayed in was not far from the casino. Of course, considering the size of Monaco, even if it was far, it wouldn't be that far.
The three of them walked and soon returned to the hotel.
"Uh … you have to take off that thing on your face. Otherwise, the people in the lobby might get suspicious," Phillip kindly reminded him.
Zhang Heng didn't say anything. He asked for Phillip's room number, then asked them to take the elevator up first.
Although Justina kept winking at Phillip, the latter obediently told him his room number.
When he returned to the room, Waldo had already packed up his things. When he saw Phillip, he breathed a sigh of relief. "You're finally back. The phone call was cut off all of a sudden. I was thinking about calling the police. There are no trains to Nice now, but we can drive. I just rented a car."
"Waldo." Phillip interrupted his companion and scratched his head. "That … we may have one more passenger."
"What do you mean by one more passenger? Wait, did you pick up some chick in the casino? And with Justina by your side? How is that possible? Since when can you attract a woman? What does she look like? How old is she? "
"Waldo, it's a man, and … oh my god, he's standing behind you now!!!" Phillip's eyes widened.
