What's going on?

Busted for cheating

You can't say you're surprised to see casino security approaching since you weren't very discreet about cheating at the blackjack table. In your haste to test out your new ring, you hadn't thought about the consequences of winning without any effort.

"Sir," the man leading the security team addresses you, "Please come with me." The name tag on his suit says his name is "Alphonse."

"What seems to be the matter?" you ask, feigning innocence.

Alphonse sighs and shakes his head, like he's been in this situation before. You're sure he's had his handful of cheaters to deal with in the past, but you doubt any of them were like you, with magic powers at your fingertips. More likely that they were card counters or cheats of other kinds, like using spare cards up their sleeves.

"You know what's the matter. Please, don't resist or my friends," Alphonse pauses for effect as you glance at the 2 burly security guards accompanying him, "will have to rough you up."

"You're going to hand me over to the police?"

Alphonse shakes his head again. "No, normally, we'd just throw you out, but nobody in the control room can figure out how you're cheating, so we'd like to have a discussion with you."

You chuckle. "A discussion?"

Alphonse smiles too, although a little too creepily, like a robot forcing human emotion. "Yes. A discussion. Tell us how you did it, and we'll let you go, no harm to you. You can even keep the money. Of course, we'll have to ban you from the casino, but that's only reasonable. So, what do you say?"

Now, you're intrigued, and since you possess 6 magic rings now, you couldn't be more confident in your ability to avoid harm to yourself, so you decide to play along. After all, your fun evening had been cut short due to the deal with Bruno, and you could use some amusement. You throw the chips back on the table behind you and get up from the chair.

"Keep the chips. I don't need the money, but I'll come with you anyway," you declare.

Alphonse raises his eyebrows, surely surprised by your reaction, before he composes himself and leads the way. "Good. Follow me."

As you start to walk behind Alphonse, the 2 security guards wait for you to pass before they follow in your footsteps.

Who do they take you to?
