Johnson came as promised and left Las Vegas with Liu Wei. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The two drove east, and it took Johnson hours before he got off the road and traveled dozens of kilometers on the Gobi River north of the Colorado River.

"Right ahead."

Following the direction of Johnson's finger, Liu Wei saw the hole in the cliff wall ahead.

The cave was so large that the buggy drove straight into it and stopped about two hundred meters from the entrance.

"You wait in the car." Johnson got out of the car after saying that.

Although it was dark in the cave, Liu Wei could see it clearly. Ahead is a large iron gate that can accommodate two vehicles, and it looks a bit like an abandoned military base.

After the lights came on, Johnson returned to the car, and the door in front of him slowly opened with a creak.

It is indeed a long-abandoned military base, and the faint sign on the door panel indicates that it once belonged to the U.S. Air Force.

"This was originally an ammunition depot," Johnson drove in, pulled down the handle on the left wall behind the door, and the door slowly closed again, "When it was expanded, it was discovered that there was an underground river underneath, which was abandoned by the military." Two years ago, the military cut back on spending, and I bought it. ”

"How big is it?"

"It's huge, I don't know." Johnson turned off the engine and pulled the handbrake, "Alright, let's get out of the car, just a few steps away." ”

The base is very dilapidated, and there are still a lot of engineering equipment and crates that have not been removed.

It looks like he's been a bit old, and Johnson certainly doesn't come here very often, so he doesn't bother to take care of it.

After walking a few dozen meters, the two entered a room. Liu Wei realized that not everything in the base is very old, at least the furnishings in this room are very new, and many things have only recently been moved.

"Sit down, what would you like to drink?"

"Just whatever." Liu Wei glanced at it, and there were only a few bottles of mineral water on the cupboard.

This room is a bit special, although a lot of equipment has been moved, but it can be seen that it was not like this. Judging by the size and layout of the room, it is a bit like a command center. Metal seals were installed on the door frames and metal mesh was installed on the vents.

Liu Wei suddenly understood, this is an "electromagnetic shielding room".

What does this guy want to do?

Johnson brought two glasses of water. "If I'm not mistaken, you won Fortuna by mental arithmetic, right?"

Liu Wei smiled, caught the water cup, and picked up the playing cards on the table. "Since you're looking for me to gamble again, you have to gamble something, right?"

Johnson laughed too. "What are you betting on?"

"If I lose, I'll tell you the secret of defeating Fortuna."

"What if I lost?"

"Do one thing for me."

Johnson hesitated for a moment and said, "You don't want to know my secret?" ”

"Do you still have secrets?"

Johnson looked at Liu Wei and said, "Yes, but you have to do it in a different way." Gambling blackjack, you sit in the bank, I sit idle, and I buy the banker or buy the leisure, how about it? ”

"No problem."

"One will determine the winner, or three will determine the winner."

"Whoever wins two first, wins."

Johnson nodded, didn't say anything more, and asked Liu Wei to shuffle the cards.

Liu Wei's shuffling skills are not very good, and his movements are a bit rough. When Liu Wei shuffled the cards, Johnson didn't cut the cards, so he let him deal the cards.

"This one, you definitely want Zhuang to win, don't you?"

Liu Wei didn't speak, if the family won, he would have already calculated it.

"By common sense, you think I'm going to do the opposite, so you're going to shuffle the big cards to the dealer." Johnson smiled and said, "Let's open." ”

"Are you so sure?"

Johnson nodded, gesturing to his chest.

Seeing his move, Liu Wei was suddenly suspicious.

Johnson didn't guess wrong, Liu Wei did deal the big cards to the dealer. The problem is that Liu Wei has already controlled his electrocardiogram, and it is impossible for Johnson to perceive his inner activity.

Is there something wrong with this room?

Liu Wei flopped and looked around.

The room has indeed been altered, and the location of the two is peculiar, with the halfway point between the two being right in the middle of the room. If the room is not a cuboid, but a conformal spatial structure composed of two parabolas, then it is likely that the two are exactly at the focal point of the two parabolas.

Thinking of this, Liu Wei immediately understood.

The electromagnetic waves emitted by his physiological current are reflected by the parabola behind him, and like a searchlight, they are reflected on the parabola behind Johnson, and then converge on Johnson. As a result, Johnson felt a hundred times stronger than normal.

After thinking about it for a while, Liu Wei closed his eyes, scattered the playing cards on the table, and then put them away at will, and then began to shuffle the cards.

This time, it was Johnson's turn to be puzzled.

"You're going to bet your luck with me?"

"Why can't you bet on luck?" Liu Wei shuffled the cards, but still didn't open his eyes. "I don't have any chances. Bet on your luck, there's at least a quarter of a chance. ”

Johnson smiled and said, "Deal the cards." ”

"Zhuang, or idle?"

"Zhuang!" Johnson said it without thinking.

As a result, he was greatly disappointed, this time it was Zhuang Xiaoxian Da.

Liu Wei concocted the same method and shuffled the cards again in a blind state. Johnson still didn't cut the cards, leaving him to deal them directly.

"Zhuang, or idle?"

This time, Johnson hesitated a little and said, "Idle! ”

Liu Wei opened his eyes and laughed at the same time.

Johnson frowned and looked at Liu Wei, as if aware of the problem.

"Deal?"

Johnson gritted his teeth and said, "You...... Are you really lucky? ”

"Of course not, you forgot something."

"What?"

"Instinct."

Johnson's brows jumped a few times, probably not understanding what Liu Wei meant.

"The last two shuffles relied on instinct." Liu Wei pointed at Johnson's chest, "And your instinct, after winning the first time you buy the bank, you may have a bigger surname when you buy the bank again." After you lose in buying a bank, you may be more likely to buy an idle person. Knowing that you would have such a reaction, so my instinct was more than reason. ”

"You ......"

"If you don't believe me, look at the hole cards."

Johnson let out a long breath and said, "What do you want me to do?" ”

"Come with me somewhere."

Looking at the hole cards on the table that had not been turned over, Johnson stood up and left the room with Liu Wei.

An hour later, the two drove back to the road.

"Go back to Las Vegas first, then turn north."

"To the north?" Johnson glanced at Liu Wei, "Where are you going?" ”

"You'll know when you get there."

After passing Las Vegas, the two headed north for about a hundred kilometers before Johnson pulled the car over.

"Not yet at ...... destination"

"Go yourself." Johnson took out the key, handed it to Liu Wei, and said, "I can do other things for you, but I don't want to go to that place." ”

"Where?"

Johnson hesitated for a moment and said, "You already know my secret, don't you?" ”

Liu Wei nodded and didn't say much.

Johnson hesitated for a moment before he said, "When I was fifteen, I first discovered this ability, and I thought it was a novelty and I could do a lot of things. You're afraid you won't believe it, for example, I can know who the prettiest female classmate likes, why my neighbor Uncle Tom didn't return all night, etc. In short, I can perceive other people's mental activity, especially when there are mood swings. Five years ago, at the age of twenty-one, I came to Las Vegas and with this ability, I swept all the casinos and won a lot of money. ”

"Joy begets sorrow."

Johnson smiled wryly and said, "That's true, several casinos sent people to hunt me down at that time. Desperate for my life, I didn't shut it that much at all. ”

"The result?"

"I went there." Johnson glanced ahead and said, "I ran in the desert for two days and two nights, and I was so tired that I couldn't climb." Feeling free from them, I hid in a bush and fell asleep. When I woke up, I was in a lab. ”

"Lab?" Liu Wei immediately tightened his brows.

"I think it's a lab, I don't know if it's a lab or not, and I don't know how long I've been there. Memories in between are intermittent, and a lot of things have happened, just very vague fragments. When I found an opportunity to escape, I realized that it was already two years later. ”

"Brainwashed."

"It's also a good thing for me, though." Johnson smiled and said, "After escaping, I can no longer see the inner workings of others, but I can feel the emotions of others, especially when they are excited." For me, that's enough. ”

"That is, those who kidnapped you, did something to you."

Johnson nodded and said, "In retrospect, I was able to escape, and it had something to do with it. If I could still see the inner workings of others, I would never have had a chance to escape. ”

"Any idea why you have this ability?"

Johnson shook his head and didn't say anything more.

Liu Wei hesitated a little and said, "Okay, let's go back." ”

"You're not going?"

"I'm just talking about it, I want to make friends with you."

Johnson glanced at Liu Wei in disbelief.

"The third hand, you actually win."

"......" Johnson's eyes immediately widened, and he looked at Liu Wei in disbelief.

"I'm really betting on luck, the second hand is lucky, the third hand we win and lose half of the hand, and you get the big card." Liu Wei threw two playing cards to Johnson, one for aces and one for kings. "Those words to you are just taking advantage of your doubts, as long as you don't look at the cards, the winner is me."

"Are you cheating?"

Liu Wei smiled and said that this was what he meant.

"But you weren't lying."

"It's true that I'm not lying, because I convince myself that I'm not panicking, it's all the truth."

"You ......"

"It's called self-deception."

Johnson smiled bitterly and said, "I am also convinced of losing to you." ”

"Have you ever thought about where you will go in the future?"

Johnson shook his head and didn't say anything more.

"Capua asked me to take care of the casino for him, if you're interested......"

"With you, do I still have a future?" Johnson smiled and said, "After going through these things, I know what it means to have a sky outside the sky." I just want to find a place to spend a few years quietly, and maybe I'll leave the United States. ”

"Have you figured out where to go?"

Johnson didn't answer Liu Wei's question, and Liu Wei didn't ask more.

This guy has been working under Capua for three years and has won a lot of money, so it is not a problem to go anywhere.
