Chapter 52: Defeat of Mai City

Aaron watched Robert's car drift away, and then he eagerly got into a taxi and left the place.

As Yang Yan guessed, Ah Lun was going to gamble, he couldn't fight in the Imperial Palace Casino anymore, and he was afraid that Wuwei would know, so he had to choose a new casino to gamble.

Some people have likened gambling to drug use, which is a very apt analogy, and the number four heroin can be inhaled for the rest of your life. If you can easily win tens of thousands of yuan in the first gamble, then this person will fall madly in love with gambling at once.

People who gamble say that people who just start gambling have 'virgin luck', I don't know if all people who participate in gambling for the first time have 'virgin luck', if there is, this kind of luck is really not good luck. Once a person tastes the sweetness of unearned gains from the beginning, it will leave an indelible mark on his heart, and emotions will remind him to try this experience again from time to time.

Although it is not the first time for Arun to gamble, but he has never won so much money, in his heart seems to have lit a magic lamp, what do you want, seeing the chips come to him like flowing water, Aaron was carried away by victory, he feels that he is a winning general, with a wave of his hand, everything can be achieved. Ah Lun had forgotten the advice of Zhou Gong and Wuwei. Greed swelled in his heart, and the fanatical desire to possess money made him lose his mind. The theory that man is an emotional animal has been tested again in Aaron's body, and he now only feels that there is a mountain of gold in front of him, waiting to be excavated by himself, and everything else is lost from his mind.

Finding the right casino in Las Vegas is easier than grabbing a beer from your fridge.

Ten minutes later, Aaron was sitting at a baccarat table at a casino. He took out $10,000 from his pocket and threw it to the dealer, and several stacks of colorful chips were immediately pushed in front of him.

After Aaron sat down, he did not rush to bet, but first observed the display card, the boot card has been issued about half of the cards, the display card is very messy, Zhuang leisure alternately opened, sometimes one or two, at most three or four times, there is no long leisure long Zhuang, there is no jumping card, chaotic and irregular.

Alun didn't think much about it when he saw the last two handfuls, picked up a purple 500 chips and bet on the bank.

The dealer was a beautiful girl, and when she saw that several of the guests at the table had placed their bets, she said according to the rules, "No more bets." (End Bets) and then the cards are dealt.

The cards were opened, the player was winning, and Aaron's chips were collected.

Without even thinking about it, Alun bet two more chips of 500 on the bank.

If you re-open the cards, you still win. Before I could understand it, the chips were collected by the staff again.

Alun shook his head, sobering himself up, he seemed to be a little unconvinced, the display card showed that this deck of cards did not have a long time, how could he bet on the card and change the way of the card? He bet two thousand yuan in chips to the bank, thinking that if this one could win, he would not only win back the money he lost, but also earn five hundred. In his heart, he didn't even think about what would happen if he lost.

After the bets are over, the beautiful dealer habitually lights up his empty hand to the gamblers and then begins to draw the cards from the box outward. Baccarat is usually played with eight decks of poker, shuffled in the shuffle machine and put into a transparent plastic card box, and then one by one from the inside to the outside of the cards, generally to about three-quarters of the time, the remaining cards will be discarded, reloaded with new cards and start again.

The god of luck seems to have moved away from Aaron, and this one is another idle victory.

The lucky one falls into the sea and comes up with a fish in his mouth. The unfortunate went to sell coffins, and no one in the world died.

Alun pushed the rest of his chips to the bank at once, and he didn't believe that a boot that didn't open a long time would open a long time after he came. The cards are really playing hide and seek with him, and they are idle again. Aaron's face became ugly. Looking at the already empty table in front of him, the 10,000 yuan chip was quickly gone.

Aaron decided to try again at a different table, and if it didn't work, he would withdraw himself, saying that he couldn't throw his winnings back in. After changing the table, Alun asked for 10,000 yuan in chips, the situation was slightly better, winning and losing, but losing more than winning, and unconsciously the chips in front of him became less and less, and after a few hours, 10,000 yuan was gone.

Alun was unwilling to return the money he won to the casino like this, he still had 20,000 yuan in his pocket, which was the capital given to him by Wuwei, and now he couldn't take care of so much, Alun had only one thought in his heart: win the money back!

Alun decided to change the gambling game, pai gow, blackjack these gambling games are too slow, he came to the roulette area, on the roulette board bet on the size of the same as baccarat, is close to 50% probability. Alun numbly pulled out a stack of money and threw it to the staff without counting them.

When I first entered the casino, I had a few pockets full of stuffed pockets, and it was a good feeling, but now I only have money in one pocket and everything else is deflated. Alun didn't seem to believe in the reality that a few pockets were empty, and couldn't help but reach into them to fumble inside, but no matter how much he touched them, he couldn't pull out the money.

After more than ten hours of hard work, Aaron didn't feel anything, and his thinking became numb. There was only a spinning roulette wheel in his eyes, and the silver ball kept spinning, stopping and spinning again, and then stopping and spinning again, Aaron's expression had frozen, and he just mechanically took money out of his pocket, as if winning or losing had nothing to do with him.

When he couldn't take out a single note in his pocket, Aaron's heart was as cold as ice, and he sat there for more than ten minutes, he couldn't believe that he had lost his armor and sunk into the sand. Slowly stood up, wandering in the casino in despair, as if he couldn't find the door to get out of the casino, the sound of chips around him, and the noise of gamblers seemed to come from another world, it was so far away and insignificant, Aaron didn't know where he was, he felt that his whole body was weak, he had no strength at all, and he was physically and mentally exhausted to the extreme.

Aaron sat down on a chair casually, just a drinking girl passed by, Aaron asked for a glass of Magritte, he suddenly took a big sip, the sourness of the lemon and the indescribable bitterness stimulated his sense of taste, making the bitterness in his heart a little heavier, Aaron suddenly had a feeling of wanting to cry without tears.

The last thing Aaron wants now is to leave the casino, because he has no face to meet Wuwei and them, he really can't think of how to explain Wuwei, he trusts himself so much, saves himself regardless of the danger, and he deceives him. He didn't know how he got out of the casino, wandering aimlessly along the road like a walking corpse with a lost soul. There was no penny left in his pocket, and Arun couldn't think of what he should do, and Wuwei had no face to go back again.

Looking at the magnificent hotel buildings on both sides of the street, Aaron felt so small, even less than an ant. Wandering in a world made of reinforced concrete, you feel like a leaf floating on the sea, ready to be swallowed by the waves. He felt so lonely and helpless that he suddenly had suicidal thoughts. His friends were gone, his money was gone, everything was gone, and he couldn't tell if he had abandoned the world or the world had abandoned him. He now truly experienced the dead silence of the birds flying in a thousand mountains, the sunlight turned gray, and the colorful world around him became eclipsed.

Wuwei and they returned to the apartment after dinner, it was already more than ten o'clock in the evening, and they didn't find Arun coming back. Wuwei picked up the phone and dialed Alun's mobile phone, and a female voice inside prompted that the phone was turned off.

"How's it going? The dog can't change to eat, and this guy is stuck in the casino again. I think it would be nice to be back tomorrow morning. Yang Yan said angrily.

"Forget it, leave him alone, let's rest. Robert was afraid that Wuwei would be angry, so he hurriedly played a round.

The three of them said no more, and each went back to his room.

The next morning, Ah Lun hadn't come back yet, Wu Wei felt that something was wrong, knowing that Yang Yan had no good impression of Ah Lun, and it was inconvenient to say anything in front of her. Until the afternoon, he hadn't seen Ah Lun come back, and Wuwei called his mobile phone a few more times, but it was still turned off.

"Robert, could something be wrong with Aaron? Otherwise, it wouldn't have been turned off all the time. Wuwei said to Robert with some concern.

"I think the two of us should go out and find him, no matter how much you gamble, there is a limit. Robert whispered.

"Okay, let's go. Wuwei turned to Yang Yan again and said, "You are guarding the phone at home, and if there is any news from Alun, call us." ”

"Got it, if you find him, call me too. Although Yang Yan usually quarrels with Ah Lun, now that Ah Lun has not returned, he is still very worried about him, and when he disappeared, Ah Lun also worked hard to find himself everywhere.

Robert was just about to walk out, when he suddenly remembered something, he stopped and said to Wuwei: "Wait, let me make a few phone calls to a few friends in the casino first, let them all inquire about each other, sometimes for various reasons, some gamblers will be seized by the casino, if so, we blindly go out to find it is fruitless." Let these friends who work in the casino inquire and see if there is anyone detained by the casino. ”

"Yes, you hurry up and call, if there is no news, we will go out to look for it. ”

Robert picked up the phone and called his friends who worked at the casino one by one, asking them to find out if there were any casino detainees. Robert made more than a dozen phone calls in a row, and then began to wait for news from his friends. After more than half an hour, the friends gradually called back, but they didn't hear that there was a person like Arun who was detained by the casino.

Wuwei saw that the time was not early, and it would be dark if he waited any longer, so the two hurriedly drove out to find Aaron.
