second victim

Reese's birthday party is going on lively.

Su Ge held a glass of amber champagne in his hand, maintaining an elegant posture and walking through the dance floor in the center.

It's just that his purpose is not to find a suitable dance partner, but to take on an exciting and dangerous challenge.

After the whole party started, he was surprised to find that the guests present were all people of great status and status. However, he also understood that with the influence of Viscount Fried, most of the upper-class elites in the entire city of York were probably at this moment

They all gathered at the Foel Mansion.

Su Ge was not interested in their identities, but the accessories on these people were all priceless and very suitable for practicing.

What Su Ge is doing right now is just such a thing.

He knew that he was just a "porter of other people's property" rather than a real "thief", but in order to imitate the tense and exciting experience that a "thief" must go through, in order to feel like a "thief"

Overjoyed that everything was safe after he succeeded, he came up with a way to take the wrong approach.

Quietly take away the collar pin of Men's No. 1 and put it on Men's No. 2 collar. Then put the gauze scarf of Men's No. 2 collar under Women's No. 1 shawl. Then pin the hair accessories of Women's No. 1 to Men's No. 1 collar.

needle position.

After ten minutes, return these items to their original locations.

Through this method, Su Ge can experience the ultimate tension of doing things secretly, the sense of stability of maintaining normal self-control when everyone is paying attention to him, and the ability to complete this without being discovered.

All the joy.

Su Ge took advantage of the gap and put an emerald lapel pin back into its place. He finally breathed a sigh of relief and went to the self-service area nearby. He took a glass of amber champagne and drank it while no one was looking.

Go down.

He is not very interested in these alcoholic drinks, but at this time, he can use them to relieve his nervous mood.

"Huh." Su Ge let out a long sigh of relief.

It's so exciting. It's much more exciting than roller coasters and haunted houses. If I have the chance, I can tell Miston Ge that I have found a good way to treat hypotension... Su Ge tried his best to calm down his pounding heartbeat and felt his chest

It seems that what is inside is not a heart, but a volcano about to erupt.

However, the experience just now was not in vain. Although I was almost discovered a few times, fortunately, I was safe all the time.

After doing all this, Su Ge could clearly feel that a lot of the "Stealer" elixir in his body had been digested, and it seemed that with just a little more, it could be completely digested.

It's pretty good. This trip was not in vain... Su Ge felt the progress of his digestion and nodded slightly.

Sure enough, he still had to do what a "thief" should do in order to digest it to the greatest extent. Although his previous experiences as a valet were helpful, the effect was far inferior to what he had just done.

Just as Su Ge was considering whether to have another round, Noli slowly walked over, raised his glass to Su Ge, and took a sip of the liquid in his hand.

Then he started coughing.

"Why don't I give you orange juice instead?" Su Ge handed Noli the handkerchief for wiping and asked with concern.

If you can't drink it, don't drink it. It's not like you don't know what's going on with your body...Su Ge felt helpless and began to search for orange juice among a bunch of alcoholic drinks.

"What I drank, cough, was orange juice, but I choked." Noli waved his hand, "I've been looking for you for a long time. Reese and the others were playing cards over there and asked if you wanted to participate."

"Playing cards?" Su Ge's eyes lit up. He felt that these two words were intimate. He was about to agree when he suddenly realized something and asked tentatively, "Them? Are they these nobles? Are they playing cards with money?"

?”

Among the city of York's bylaws, gambling is prohibited.

For the working people at the bottom, there are not many entertainment methods in life. Apart from going to bars to drink, they can only use their meager salary to make small bets and numb themselves with yelling and shouting.

Of course, most people end up losing all their money. After losing all their money, they can only go back to work honestly. But after they save a little, they can't help but play a few games, and finally the cycle starts over again.

However, these are only on a small scale and may even occur at a temporary dinner party, so the police have no way to completely eradicate them.

But Su Ge knew that this kind of behavior did not only happen among the people at the bottom. Those high-end people in the upper class of society would also play it occasionally. However, considering their status and influence, the police also maintained their attitude towards it.

The attitude of turning a blind eye.

So when Noli invited him, Su Ge had some scruples. On the one hand, he didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing. After all, he was just a person who was called in temporarily. In normal life, he had nothing to do with these people.

It is impossible for nobles to have any intersection at all.

On the other hand, it's because he has no money.

Noli looked at Su Ge's expression and suddenly laughed, "Of course there is no need for money. We are good law-abiding citizens. How could such a thing as gambling happen to us?"

Su Ge looked at Noli's smile and relaxed.

Then I heard Noli say in a confident voice: "We all use horses."

????????????

When Su Ge was sitting at the card table in confusion, Noli's words were still echoing in his head.

An adult horse, the kind that pulls carts, the most common ones weigh between 150 and 200 pounds. Not to mention the high-end horses used by nobles to practice riding skills, which weigh more than a thousand pounds, and those

Pulling out the horses used for farm work will only bring disgrace to the nobles.

But Noli said that the Freed family has a tradition of receiving riding training from childhood, so they raise a lot of horses, some of which are even specially used for giving to each other between nobles, so Suge is allowed to play as much as he wants.

There is no need to think about other things.

As a cousin whom he has not seen for many years, Noli has the aura of "risking everything to throw an unforgettable birthday party for Reese".

Su Ge didn't think about this because he was doing a simple conversion.

After discovering that the five cards in his hand were worth four horse legs, and maybe half a horse's butt, Su Ge couldn't help but start to tremble.

"Let me introduce, this is a friend I just met. Kallen and I have both been helped by him. He is a man of high quality. His name is..."

"Mr. Helper." Karen interjected.

Reese hid her face and snickered, nodded, "Yes, Mr. Helper."

Before Su Ge could express his opinion, Reese went on to introduce the two unfamiliar faces at the card table, "This is Sid. We have been playing together since we were children. Now that I think about it, it has been ten years."

The boy named Sid was the one whom Su Ge had met before when he played the role of a valet. Perhaps Su Ge's performance was too successful at that time. At this time, Sid nodded slightly to Su Ge and turned out to be a

The first time we met.

And Su Ge noticed that although Sid was at the card table, his attention was always on Reese, and he always cast his eyes in Reese's direction intentionally or unintentionally, but he did not dare to look blatantly.

Everyone at the card table should be able to see Sid's thoughts, except maybe Karen... Su Ge thought silently and looked at the other person.

"This is Ramos, my classmate." Reese introduced simply.

Although Reese was simply introduced as a classmate, Su Ge would not simply think that Ramos was an ordinary student. After all, the identities of those who could participate in this birthday party were all unusual.

After a brief introduction, the card game began. Su Ge could only ignore the non-existent horse in his mind and focus on the cards in his hand.



"Three sixes." Su Ge gently put down the cards in his hand, his tone was calm, and his eyes fell on everyone in turn.

There were bursts of low shouts from around the card table, and the expressions on everyone's faces were completely different.

"Mr. Helper, you have won three games in a row. You have never told me before that you are so good at cards."

Kallen is indeed a natural supporter, but she is a bit lacking in discernment. It was obviously Reese's birthday party, but her bursts of exclamations and compliments made it look like Sugar's birthday party.

Fortunately, as the master, Reese didn't mind, and Su Ge also decided to stop in the next round.

"It's indeed very powerful. I didn't expect that in this situation, you still have three sixes in your hand, but I have to say that its effect is beyond everyone's expectation." Reese made a fair evaluation.

.

Of course, if you have the ability to grab three more cards in your hand without others seeing it, then all you need to do for the rest is to spell out what you want from it.

It's just a deck of cards... Su Ge thought in his heart.

After playing a few simple games, Su Ge discovered that his "thief" ability also played a very good role in this kind of card game. For example, he could draw a few more cards without being discovered, and for example, in

Put back the extra cards without being discovered.

Noli was the only one here who knew Su Ge's true identity, but Noli didn't reveal it because he was holding up the cards in his hand, pursed his lips and thinking hard, and didn't pay attention to Su Ge's actions at all.

"Damn it, let's play again." Ramos said through gritted teeth, while glaring at Sugar fiercely.

"I'm going to the bathroom." Sid said on the side.

Ramos withdrew his gaze from Sugar, turned to look in the direction of Sid, and followed directly without saying anything.

There were four people left on the card table at this time, Noli was still thinking hard, Kallen was staring at the three sixes on the table and blinking hard, while Reese was looking at the direction Ramos and Sid were leaving.

Showing a hint of helplessness.

Su Ge saw a complicated emotion in Reese's eyes, and followed her without saying anything.

"Thanks."

Reese's voice came from behind.

Su Ge didn't say anything more, nodded slightly, and walked towards the bathroom.

The Foer Mansion is actually very big, but the place where a few young people are playing cards at the moment is at the back far away from the dance floor, and it is on the second floor. The surrounding area is relatively quiet. Standing in the corridor, Su Ge can clearly see

Heard a sound coming from the corner ahead.

There was a "boom", as if something made a dull impact, and then Su Ge heard a slight groan.

"Are you convinced?" Ramos' voice sounded.

"Don't talk? I know you like Reiss. Things have always been simple and everyone competes fairly. But you insist on doing some little tricks, which is really disgusting."

Then came Sid's struggling voice, "I didn't."

After a sound of pulling and tearing clothes, Ramos's voice sounded again, "Don't you think I can't tell? You've been giving cards to that helper, don't you just want to see me lose face in front of Reese?

What does it look like?"

After a fierce collision of bodies, Su Ge finally couldn't bear it anymore and cleared his throat, making a small but very clear sound.

After a moment of silence, Ramos snorted, dropped Sid, and turned to go to the bathroom. When Sugar appeared from the corner, he happened to see Ramos closing the door from the inside.

Su Ge thought for a moment, said nothing, walked over and helped Sid up.

When he touched Sid's arm, due to his "thief" nature, Sugar easily discovered that Sid was protecting his breast pocket intentionally or unintentionally.

Lightly, a palm-sized portrait fell to the ground. The person in the portrait was none other than Reese.

Sugar clearly felt that Sid's body began to become tense, but he did not say anything, but turned his face away, and waited until Sid had packed up before taking Sid back to the card table.

"I, I just slipped and soiled my clothes. I'm going to change first." Sid said and quickly went to a room in the opposite direction of the bathroom.

In fact, everyone saw Sid's cracked armpits and the red handprints on Sid's neck, but they didn't say anything.

"They may have some misunderstanding." Ruisi whispered to Su Ge.

It's all because of you, Miss Reese...Su Ge sighed and finally chose to shut up.

"Where's Ramos?"

"Going to the bathroom, it will probably take a while." Su Ge replied.

The card table suddenly became quiet, and even Kallen was aware of the strange atmosphere on the card table. She just rolled her eyes but said nothing.

After a while, Sid also came out, changed into a new dress, and sat at the card table.

After a long wait, no one saw Ramos coming back. Just when everyone thought that Ramos had a bad stomach, Su Ge and Noli realized that something was wrong at the same time, and asked Reese and others to stay where they were.

Finally, I came to the bathroom.

Su Ge knocked on the door and found no movement inside.

The ominous premonition made the two of them alert at the same time, and they quickly entered the state of purifiers.

Su Ge and Noli looked at each other. The latter retreated a few steps, while Su Ge rushed forward and knocked open the bathroom door.

A strong smell of blood filled the air, and Su Ge instantly pulled out the dagger hidden in his lower back to be on guard.

In the bathroom, Ramos was lying in a pool of blood and had lost his breath.
