Mr. Burner
As Jack and Anna entered the Gambling house, they are welcomed by a luxurious interior with warm lighting. Everything was glistening gold.
The interior unlike the outside was bustling with gamblers and rich guests who were eagerly waiting for something.
Jack felt something tucking at him from behind, something almost subtle and soft.
Jack turned around. It was Anna. She was still super scared.
Jack gave the warmest smile and asked,
Anna
Did you use a fake ID? Won't we get in trouble?
She spoke with an almost non existent voice.
Jack
We usually get cases where we have to enter places where law is not the same as the outside. Then we have to use such methods to get in.
As they were looking around a man, rather rich looking, hurried across. Jack stopped the man.
Jack
Sir? is there anything special happening today?
Random Stranger
Yes, yes! The auction hall is auctioning something rather unique today.
Random Stranger
Oh! I'm in a hurry. If you want to see come and see.
Jack and Anna started to follow the man. The man entered a room.
As Jack was reaching for the room a voice interrupted him.
Stranger
That room is occupied, you know.
Stranger
Do you need a room?
as Jack was about to say something, the stranger said.
Mr. Fredrick Burner
I'm Burner, Fredrick Burner. The owner of this humble establishment.
Jack
Ah! Mr. Burner, I'm Jack, Jack Hugh.
Mr. Fredrick Burner
Nice to meet you Mr. Hugh. Do we know each other from somewhere?
Jack
I don't think so. I'm new around town. So...
Mr. Fredrick Burner
Well, never mind.
Mr. Fredrick Burner
Do you want a private room, Mr. Hugh?
Mr. Fredrick Burner
That will be $7000 per person.
Mr. Fredrick Burner
So if you want a room come find me or go to the reception. I'll be around.
As he was about to leave, Jack stopped him and asked.
Mr. Fredrick Burner
Yes! Mr. Hugh, anything I can help with?
Jack
What is being auctioned today?
Mr. Fredrick Burner
Oh!? You will have to find that out at the auction.
Mr. Fredrick Burner
If you don't have anything more to say, I'll be off.
Jack
Wait. Mr. Burner, I'll take a private room.
Suddenly, Mr. Burner stopped and turned with a pleasant smile and said.
Mr. Fredrick Burner
Oh?! Call me Fred.
Mr. Fredrick Burner
That will be $14k.
Jack reached into his pockets and took out an electronic teller machine and gave it to Mr. Burner.
He typed something on it's screen and returned it back to Jack.
Mr. Fredrick Burner
Follow me Mr. Hugh.
He led them to a door with number 26 on it with a Rose gold hue.
Jack and Anna entered the room.
