At this time, the waiter came over from a distance, holding a fruit plate and a pot of black tea in his hand. He walked closer, placed it on the table and left. Chu Long then picked up the cut dragon fruit in the fruit plate that had just been delivered.
After eating, he looked at the female pendulum player next to him and asked, "Do you want to eat?"
The female pendulum player shook her head and said: "During work, you are not allowed to talk too much with customers. There are rules."
"rigid!"
"By the way, what's the difference between the hall style and the private room style?" Chu Long said after picking up a piece of dragon fruit with a toothpick inserted into it.
"Private rooms are generally not open to the public. They are only available to shareholders who have invested in the hotel, or those invited by shareholders."
"It belongs to the VIP room." The female swing player looked at Chu Long and said.
"Each billiards room has a small bar, drinks, and fruit plates are all free. Even the billiard balls inside are made of ivory, which is very rare nowadays, and the cues are also made of fine sandalwood."
"The clubs in the hall are all made of ash wood. Although it has good elasticity, it is easy to decay."
"Each room has dedicated players and waiters, all of whom are trained. Their salary is several times ours, and they take care of food, accommodation, transportation and hotels." The tall and thin waitress was quite envious of being able to work there.
Those people said in a slightly lower tone.
"You may not always be here. Maybe I will move you to the VIP room one day. No one will stay in one place forever. There will always be a chance to change places." Chu Long looked at the waitress and smiled.
He said.
"Chu, I'm going to the bathroom, can you help me?" Osmond walked up to Chu Long, handed the club to Chu Long and said.
"But I can't!" Chu Long said as he chewed the apple chunks in his mouth.
"It's okay, I'm just playing for fun." Osment handed the club to Chu Long again, looking like he was in a hurry to go to the toilet, obviously because he was holding back his urine.
"Okay, wait a minute!" Chu Long quickly wiped out the apples in his hands before taking the cue handed over by Osment.
After handing the cue to Chu Long, Osmond quickly walked out of the billiard hall. As soon as the door closed, Chu Long saw him running towards the bathroom like flying.
After Osmond left, Corporal Linn changed the table and asked the female players to play snooker. Chu Long looked at Corporal Linn and said: "I don't even know how to play snooker. You ask me to play snooker."
Nok?"
"I don't even know the basics!"
"You can lay a solid foundation by practicing proportional billiards, but you can also try snooker first!"
"This is not like going to school. You must have a basic foundation before you can accept profound knowledge." Corporal Linn said, motioning to the female swing player to change his club.
"There are two ways to play billiards in London now. One is the old-fashioned way most people play ① three-ball pocket billiards, and the other is snooker played by a few people. It was played by a soldier who is now the Minister of Health.
Zhang Yilun brought it back from outside." (Note: British proportion billiards are three-ball pocket billiards)
"Many people in the military like this kind of game, but more people still don't accept it. I just asked, this hotel has two kinds of billiards, one is old-fashioned billiards, and the other is snooker. I
I prefer snooker, but just now Osmond prefers proportional billiards, so I played two games with him."
"If you really don't want to play, let's try another one." Corporal Linn walked to the table, took a cup of black tea and took a sip.
"Let's play snooker! Anyway, I don't know how to play, it's all the same." Chu Long looked at Corporal Lin who had finished drinking tea and walked up to him, shaking his head and saying.
I don’t know if Osmond was constipated, so he went to the bathroom for forty minutes. Corporal Lin En taught Chu Long how to play snooker for three rounds. Now he can start playing snooker normally. There is no need to teach and play at the same time.
If he doesn't come back, it really makes people wonder if he collapsed when he went to the bathroom and passed out.
If Osmond doesn't come back at the end of this game, Chu Long and Corporal Lin plan to go to the bathroom to "rescue" him.
At the beginning of a new round, Corporal Lin En kicked off the ball. As the two of them went back and forth, soon only the last black ball was left. The score at this time was that Corporal Lin En was 2 points higher than Chu Long.
, the black ball becomes crucial. Corporal Lynn
Hit the white ball on this side of the table and hit it towards the end of the other side where the black ball is. The black ball is hit and goes diagonally towards the hole. It hits the outer eaves of the hole and bounces.
Go to the other side and stop on the other side
One side of the hole was diagonally in front of the hole, and the white ball bounced to the center due to the impact just now. Due to the position of his body, it was inconvenient for Chu Long to hit the ball, so he took the pole, took the shell powder from the table and wiped the pole
behind the head, resting on
On the rack, there was a "bump", and the white ball came out and hit the straight line after adjusting the rack. It hit the black ball with a "pop", and the black ball fell into the hole. The round was over. Chu Long
With a 5-point lead over Corporal Lin, Chu Long won.
"Wow! Chu, you win." Osmond walked into the billiard hall at some point, and when he walked in front of him, he happened to see Chu Long scoring a goal.
"Are you okay?" Chu Long asked, looking at Osmond in front of him.
"It took me almost an hour to go to the bathroom. Are you constipated or are you cleaning the hotel?" Corporal Linn also looked at Osmond and said.
"My stomach feels a little uncomfortable for some reason, so I went back to the room to rest for a while."
"It's better to come over here." Osmond's excuse was too lame. It was obvious that there were other reasons, and Corporal Linn didn't ask further.
Next, Chu Long played four games with Osmond and Corporal Linn successively, losing three times and winning one. He lost all games with Corporal Linn and won one game with Osmond. After playing four games in a row,
Chu Long sat on the sofa, eating fruit, drinking tea, and watching Corporal Lin En play with each other. From time to time, he would go to other tables to watch others play.
"Hello, sir, are you Corporal Lynn?" When the game between Osmond and Corporal Lynn was about to end, a waiter opened the hall door softly, walked up to Corporal Lynn and asked.
"Yes, what's the matter?" Corporal Linn hit the ball with one cue, and the white ball hit a red ball into the bag. Then he looked up at the waitress with short black hair who came in front of him.
.
"Corporal Linn, there is a phone number for you at the front desk of the lobby. It is from the police station." The short-haired waitress said to Corporal Linn.
"What, the police station?"
"Yes, Corporal, I have confirmed it," the short-haired waitress said affirmatively.
Osmond walked over at this time, looked at Corporal Linn and whispered: "Corporal, you go take care of things first, we will wait for you here."
"Okay!" Corporal Linn looked at Chu Long and Osmond, smiled apologetically, and walked out of the hall.
It’s strange that the London Police Department could have anything to do with me. Wasn’t the attack case handed over to Lieutenant Avery? Why did no one notify me when they found me? Corporal Linn walked toward the front desk on the first floor full of suspicion.
As I walked, I wondered why the police were looking for me.
