The Gambling House
As the woman leaves, everyone peeped at Jack from where they were seated
Jack
Thank you Miss Loxorn. We will find her as soon as possible.
As Jack was turning, Richard pounced up to Jack and asked.
Richard
So? What's the case?
Before Jack could finish everyone flashed towards Jack and formed an arc around him like a school of piranhas.
Jack
Miss Alice Loxorn wants us to find her missing ..... Albino python.
Everyone uttered in confusion.
Jack
Yes, an albino python named Pepe
Jack
Last seen around the Gambling house near the Pier.
Munice
Ah! the Blue Rock Gambling house?
Jack
There are no known suspects and the only identifier other than the fact that it's a rare albino python is that it has a golden tooth with Pepe engraved on it.
Everyone looked confused.
Jack
I'm calling the case open. case missing python.
Jack
Alright. Will you are paired with Richard and Chester I'm giving you Munice
Jack
DON'T. LET. HER. DRINK. OKAY?
The replies came almost at the same time.
Jack
We will investigate the Gambling house
Richard
We will take the Pier. I wanna see if someone is keeping the snake in the warehouses down there.
Jack
And Chester and Munice?
Chester
We will ask around Miss Loxorn's house. See if there is anyone suspicious there.
Jack
The Case is formally open.
Jack walks into what seems to be a store room and brings out a big notice board.
Jack
Any updates and suspects are to be reported here.
After a couple of minutes, they left for the investigation.
Jack and Anna reach the Blue Rock Gambling house
The huge five storied, exquisitely built gambling house comes into Anna's eyes.
Anna
Whoooah! that's huge for a-a gambling house.
They walk up to the front door and suddenly a hand the size of Jack's head blocked their path.
An absolute Giant came to view from the sidelines
Anna zips behind Jack peeping at the gigantic man infront of them.
Giant Gary
Welcome to The Blue Rock Gambling House. Please read the terms and conditions on this file before entering.
He hands them a writing pad with some papers on it.
Jack took the papers and started reading through it.
Suddenly a phrase strikes Jack's eyes
Jack
No Cops or Detectives.
Giant Gary
Yeah. You wouldn't happen to be a cop would ya?
The man said with an innocent but threatening voice.
Giant Gary
So... Mind showing me your IDs?
Jack reached into his pockets and took out what seemed to be his ID.
The man took Jack's ID and looked at him again.
He gave a nod of confirmation
Giant Gary
Okay. What about the little lady?
Anna seemed almost petrified.
Jack suddenly interfered and said
Jack
She is my little sister. Don't worry we ain't cops or anything.
The man turned and opened the door to the Gambling House and gave a pretty scary smile.
Giant Gary
Welcome to the Gambling House.
Jack took Anna by her hand and walked her in while she was trembling in fright.
The door behind them closes.
