Chapter 025: Clues
The next game was very relaxed, with Shi Hu relying on a huge chip base, with the participation of mind reading and luck, he happily fought against the players. But he restrained himself a little, and did not deliberately use the psychological tricks of confronting professional poker players, and playing scheming is actually very annoying, especially now.
In professional poker, he can play the role of an actor, disorienting and distracting each other, but here...... You have to keep a snack, and the owner of the gambling boat is responsible for safety, and no one will mess around, but when you get off the boat, the guy with a bad mouth usually dies miserably, so refreshment is also the element.
He is simply and crisp, if the card is good, he will give up. The focus of the back is on his beautiful female companion and the fragrant kiss she sent. Eva, who was wearing a low-necked dress, had a figure and charm that made the men's mouths dry, and the game ended hastily, hearing that someone was going to buy women.
Shi Hu counted the chips, $25 million.
In just three hours, before the first break began, the gang lost it all. The scattered heart is scattered, and the woman is looking for the woman...... He never thought that winning money would be so simple, he happily threw a hundred thousand chips to the dealer, the person in charge of the casino kept the account, and he pulled his female companion away.
They were hanging out in a bar, listening to the melancholy voice of the Italian male singer, but the conversation was more focused on the gambling game just now. Michael is throwing himself into his five bodies, as long as he learns one or two successful husbands, there will be girls who can't be soaked in the future? Shi Hu patted him on the head: "It's not promising." ”
"Eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling is not the true meaning of life!" Michael disgruntled.
Paul smiled: "You are doing very well, you can't see the style of a professional master, just a rich kid who tries his luck and has a little skill, plus you have a huge amount of money, there will definitely be people who want to win this money from you, look forward to the next few days." ”
"I won't let you down." Shi Hu said very confidently, with the invincible skill of mind reading, who can beat him now?
……
Winning money made Shi Hu sleep soundly.
The woman's incense in his arms also has the effect of promoting sleep, but unconsciously, the familiar scene reappears: his body shrinks into a baby, being held in the arms of a woman, the man looks from the sidelines, a smile appears on his cold face, and the beautiful woman leans over to kiss him, her face full of joy.
He knew it was a dream, but he couldn't wake up and could only watch passively.
The scenes changed, some vague, some clear, and he speculated that this should have been when he was very young. It's strange that childhood memories can still be so clear? It's like a long movie until they last appear, backwards in the street scene, a brand new family......
Shi Hu opened his eyes abruptly and woke up from his dream.
I'm having this repetitive dream again...... He sighed, took his hand off the woman's carcass, turned on the light, got up, went to pour himself a glass of water, and walked to the balcony to drink. The moonlight sprinkled on him, bringing a touch of coldness, and the cruise ship was moving slowly, as smooth as the ground.
He couldn't figure out why strange dreams appeared so often, since his memory was enhanced, he was indeed able to recall many forgotten big and small things, and even now he can clearly see his early childhood, it stands to reason that the memory of infants and toddlers is difficult to preserve.
I feel ridiculous when I think about it, people in their twenties still dream of looking for their parents. Let go of what should be let go, they are absent from their childhood and youth, and there is not much need to find them back. What's more, he has his own relatives and cares about his adoptive parents, so it's useless to think about it.
……
At dinner the next day, I heard Paul say that there were several games last night, and the amount was not small, tens of millions, but because Shi Hu was resting, Brian did not inform him. Until this morning, the three tables in the poker room were active and enthusiastic.
Shi Hu wondered: "Suddenly interested?" ”
Paul guessed: "Maybe it was for yesterday's excitement, seeing you win tens of millions in just a few hours, everyone's interest was aroused." ”
Shi Hu smiled: "It seems that you have to thank me." ”
In fact, the poker room is more lively than they think. Shi Hu's big win yesterday was a point, gamblers took care of their personal affairs, and finally ushered in their free time, and it was also the reason why they were about to land. After finishing their business, before getting off the ship and leaving, it is really not a problem for them to try their luck with a few million.
Shi Hu took a turn and did not participate. Brian didn't receive an invitation either, but he had it last night, but unfortunately he was spending a good night with a beautiful woman, how could he stop at a critical moment? Shi Hu did not rush to participate in the gambling, but simply played on the cruise ship again, unruly.
When the cruise ship was about to dock in Naples (Italy), the game was suspended.
John Smith interviewed the gamblers, and he brought the news that Naples would have friends who like to play poker on board, and he suggested a short-term poker game, which would be held in several stages, with an initial participation of five million, which could be made up halfway, and the withdrawal would naturally be abandoned.
This kind of play is very common, and in the case of a large number of players, it is possible to compete for a huge prize pool with a small amount of money, five million per person, and hundreds of millions for twenty people, not to mention those who join in the middle of the game - if they want to gain a chip advantage, they must carry a larger amount of money to participate.
Five million is hundreds of millions, and everyone's interest has increased greatly.
John Smith smiled: "Everyone is welcome to participate in the evening meeting to discuss the relevant details!" ”
In the evening the cruise ship docked in Naples, and some people went away, and some also came up. Gambling on the high seas is illegal, and the gambling game is not carried out. Everyone is either going to have fun or attending the owner's banquet. The rules are Western: formal attire and a female companion. Shi Hu also attended.
He also learned that the event was not the first time it had been played, and that it was usually held when there were more customers playing poker on board, like this one. There are many customers who want to try their luck, and there are others who are learning ...... So enthusiastic, don't do a big event, sorry for the audience.
The more lively it is, the more appetite for Shi Hu is, and it is best to explode more than a billion.
It's unlikely, but who doesn't want to get rich overnight? Under the influence of mentality and environment, there are more than 20 people who are interested in participating, and some of them have just come on board from Naples, with gangs involved, with a lot of black money in their hands, and they are very keen to beat other players and double their funds.
Listen to the Chinese words in everyone's mouths and sip champagne...... Shi Hu's swaying footsteps suddenly stopped, and in Michael's strange eyes, his gaze stopped on a few men and women who were talking, and doubts were written on his face. Seeing this, Michael asked, "What's the situation, master?" ”
"What language does she speak?" Shi Hu raised his chin and stopped at a face ...... On a woman in her forties.
Michael listened to a few words and shook his head: "Russian? Ukrainian? I can't tell. ”
"I'll ask." Shi Hu walked towards her, and only then did he feel that the language in which they were talking was very similar to what his "parents" said in his dream.
Shi Hu stepped forward, and several men in suits stared at him, quite vigilant.
"Excuse me, ladies." Shi Hu said in English, it can be seen that women are in charge of this circle, especially this middle-aged woman with a lot of temperament.
A blue-eyed young woman spoke first: "You, leave!" ”
The other party was not polite, and then looked at the fierce man in black beside her, and thought that there were a group of ruthless characters on the gambling boat...... Shi Hu hit a wall and planned to leave.
"Wait." The lady spoke, and she looked at Shi Hu: "What's the matter?" ”
In the end, the older one is more sensible, Shi Hu asked kindly: "Sorry to interrupt, I just want to ask, what language did you just speak?" ”
"Russian." The lady said.
"Thank you, very helpful to me." After Shi Hu finished speaking, he turned around and left.
The young woman asked the man in black, "Where did he come from?" ”
"Gambler, from China." The man in black said, "There's nothing special. ”
The young woman looked at Shi Hu's back as he left, and then said, "Pay more attention lately." ”
"I know." The man in black nodded.
Shi Hu didn't know what they were discussing behind their backs, and he didn't care, so he just ran into a strange person. In fact, most of the VVIPs around are weirdos, such as the Middle Eastern, drinking and gambling, and doing things that are not allowed by the canon, but they are sandwiched between a large group of weirdos, and they are not prominent.
But Michael was full of gossip in his heart: "What's the matter, it turns out that you like the old?" But this trick of picking up girls is too ...... Rotten, right? ”
"I'm just curious what language she speaks, simple."
"Pretty charming, isn't it? That wonderful body, unique to mature women, is willing to take a shot! Michael continued to blow the wind in his ears.
"Shut up!" Shi Hu glared at him, "If you kid is looking for a beating." ”
Michael shut up and didn't speak, but squeezed expression.
Shi Hu ignored him. Russian? He pondered the sentences in his dream, and he also guessed that, like the Slavic languages, he was currently inclined to the former. And the man in the dream, the yellow race, is undoubted, he also has a Chinese, as for women...... Up in the air. He looked up thoughtfully and saw that they were gone.
