"Me? I just graduated." Alok blinked and said with a smile. "Drol City Second High School."

Viscount Mason looked at Alok in surprise. He didn't expect that such an outstanding young man was still a student not long ago.

He spread his hands in confusion and sighed:

"Heroes are born young, and time makes people grow old. I think I didn't know anything at your age."

"The longer you live, the more experience you have. I'm just lucky and inexperienced. If you do it again, you might see me in the cemetery." Alok boasted to each other.

"You're kidding. Your Excellency. There is no chance to do it again. Success is success." Viscount Mason said with a smile.

"That's right. There is no turning back in life." Alok nodded in agreement.

He took a big sip of beer and suddenly said:

"Let's not talk about such topics. I heard that we will dock at Fugen Harbor for supplies today. Does Viscount Mason have any plans?"

"Well~~ When people get older, they don't want to move. Besides, it's too dangerous on the ship now." Viscount Mason politely rejected Alok's proposal to get off the ship together.

Of course, this was exactly what Alok wanted. He continued to say along with Viscount Mason's words:

"I don't really want to get off the ship either. There is a bit of commotion on the ship. Something is not right."

"Yes, I heard that there is a lot of commotion in the lower cabin? Lord Phasma knows the chief of guards, do you have any inside information?" Viscount Mason asked.

"It is said that they are protesting against the stowaways and the poor food. There are also protests against thieves." Alok gave a general introduction.

He didn't have much time to care about the things on the lower level, after all, there were still tasks to complete.

This was enough to worry about.

Although a thief was caught, it seemed to have nothing to do with the events on the lower level.

"This is really terrible. I hope nothing serious will happen." Viscount Mason said sadly.

As soon as he finished speaking, an alarm suddenly sounded on the ship.

Viscount Mason suddenly stood up from the stool and glanced at Alok, wondering what happened.

Alok understood in his heart.

It seems that the assassination was successful.

When everyone didn't know what happened, a staff member hurried to the deck at the stern. He shouted loudly:

"Everyone, hurry back to your cabin. There is an emergency on the ship now. Please stay calm and return to your cabin. Protect your personal property safety."

"What happened?" A well-dressed middle-aged man asked loudly.

This is exactly what Alok wanted to ask, which made Alok happy.

"It's just that the untouchables in the third class cabin are having a large-scale fight. But in order to protect everyone's safety, I hope everyone will return to their cabins, close the doors and windows, and protect their own safety." The staff member responded in an impatient and urgent tone.

Hmm~? ? It turned out that Edward was not assassinated? ? But a fight in the lower cabin? ? ?

Alok and Viscount Mason looked at each other.

Viscount Mason said helplessly:

"This is really what you said. Damn it."

"It's not our fault. Let's go back to the cabin quickly." Alok comforted.

But if I'm alone in the cabin, then wouldn't my alibi be gone again?

However, I don't have it, and neither do anyone else. It doesn't matter.

It's really a series of twists and turns.

"Indeed, it's too dangerous. We should go back quickly." Viscount Mason nodded.

Viscount Mason held Alok's hand while walking with a staggering pace. When he walked out of the bar, he suddenly said:

"I always feel that it's not safe enough for an old man to stay with a young girl."

"Indeed." Alok said quickly.

He understood what Viscount Mason meant.

Of course, while protecting the two of them, I can also satisfy my desire to find an alibi.

"Maybe I can stay with the two of you. Oh, and my servants." He continued.

"That's so sorry." Viscount Mason waited for what he wanted to hear, so he stopped and said sincerely.

"You're welcome. It feels safer to have more people together. What do you think?" Alok said with a smile.

"That's right."

The two smiled at each other. After everyone had returned to their rooms, they slowly returned to room 311.

Alok first said goodbye, returned to his cabin, and called Roger.

Viscount Mason also knocked on the door of room 310 and called Miss Mason to his room.

Including Viscount Mason's servants. Five people stayed together. This gave His Excellency the Viscount a full sense of security.

"We can all get together to play cards. Maybe we should have some entertainment in such an environment." Viscount Mason suggested.

"Good idea." Alok raised his eyebrows and said.

Viscount Mason also nodded, then turned around and instructed the servants behind him.

After seeing the servant obey his order and go out, he turned to look at Alok and said, "It seems that such a day is not boring."

Soon, the servant returned to room 311, with several staff members behind him, and moved a table similar to a mahjong table into the room.

He found a flat and wide place to put it, and then left respectfully.

Although the popular cards in the Hutt Empire are similar in shape to mahjong, they have various ways to play. After collecting a complete set of cards that can "win" the game, you can win the game.

There are four suits in total. They are the king, the temple, the nobles and the commander. They also represent the four major forces in the Hutt Empire.

Although Alok is a time traveler, he is familiar with this mode of playing cards.

In principle, Roger cannot play cards with his master, but since he is missing one, he was pulled by Alok to sit opposite him and make up a table of "mahjong".

"We have to add some prizes." Viscount Mason said to Alok.

"Of course. Otherwise, what's the point of playing cards?" Alok answered absentmindedly.

Viscount Mason glanced at Alok and said:

"We are all family. Let me see how 10 Kates are."

"No problem." Alok said absentmindedly again.

Afterwards, Viscount Mason thought Alok was worried about the alarm just now, so he smiled and comforted him: "Don't worry. Anyway, the chaos is downstairs. It has nothing to do with us."

Alok was indeed thinking about it and was a little absent-minded.

But he was thinking about whether Connor's commission had been completed.

Why is there no news yet? It should be landing soon. I hope it's not too late.

Second, I was wondering what happened.

He was not as arrogant and indifferent as Viscount Mason, but he didn't want the ship to be in chaos.

After several people got the cards, Alok played absent-mindedly.

"A Kafka I." He picked up a card and played it casually.

"Ha. Hu." Viscount Mason grabbed the card that Alok dropped and pushed the card in front of him on the table. "It seems that my luck is finally back."

He looked at Alok, who was a little stunned, and pointed at the card and said:

"A total of eleven, 1 Deben and 10 Kate."

"Uh~~ You are so lucky." Alok shrugged helplessly and said.

He pushed the cards in his hand down and joined the shuffling team.

······

As time went by, Alok never waited for the news he wanted. This made his mind more confused, and he also successfully lost a sum of money.

He frowned slightly. Played the "Kafka I" again.

"Hey~~ It's you again. Phasma." Viscount Mason exclaimed.

Then, he looked at Alok's slightly frowned brows and thought that he was in a bad mood because he lost the whole afternoon, so he said:

"Young man, keep calm. Don't get anxious the more you play. That will make you lose more. I'm winning again, three times."

Although Viscount Mason's words were not directed at Alok's plan, it also reminded him.

He took a deep breath, calmed his anxious mood, and smiled slightly. He said:

"Of course. It seems that what I said this afternoon was said to myself."

"Things change. There will always be a chance for you." Viscount Mason comforted. "Let's continue."

Buzz~~~~Buzz~~~~~

The huge alarm on the ship sounded again. It seemed more nervous than the last time.

Alok's heart tightened.

Take a deep breath again.

This time it should be Connor's assassination. .

I wanted to write more scenes of playing cards, but after thinking for a moment, I gave up this dangerous idea.

Gambling for a long time will lead to losses.

Say no to gambling, starting with me.
