Chapter 7 No matter how high the gambling skills are, they can't beat the mind reading skills
At 12 o'clock in the morning, when the sun was at its most scorching and the sun was at its most painful, I arrived in Toshima Ward and entered the "BLUE SKY Casino".
is not the same as the old TV series of Panlong Kingdom, as well as some Hong Kong films, and the casinos in Japan are not lively at all. Although there are a lot of people in the casino, the size of the casino is also large, and the music and footsteps are endless...... But it's not like the scene in the movie, and it's not like in the movie, where a group of people are around, shouting "big big" and "little little" while dancing......
There are many guests from different countries and regions, but most of them are wearing masks, which can only be judged by the eyes and physique.
An old man of Amelica put his arms around the two bunny girls and was silent as he watched the roulette ball in the dealer's hand; A guy who looked like a dragon man looked carefully at the playing cards in his hand; The former Luvaros generals and politicians drank champagne and chatted about their views on the sand crab and the country......
This is a gathering area for high-class scum in Japan. As an underground casino that does not comply with Japanese law at all, it is reasonable to hide filth.
I'm not here for them. When despair comes, they either die or are infected with despair, and together they destroy human civilization.
Walking through the hall, I made my way to the elevator to the basement and pulled out a special pass that had been prepared for forgery. The waiter at the door bowed respectfully to me and opened the elevator door.
The atmosphere here is more ambiguous. Bedroom doors are mostly closed, and the gentle tunes make you drowsy. There weren't many customers, the dealers were surprisingly out of proportion, and many of the tables were empty.
"Hello, I'm looking for the vampire princess."
Looking at the tip of 10,000 yen in his hand, the waiter who was still a little contemptuous in his eyes just now instantly changed his face and showed a charming and flattering smile.
"No problem. I don't know...... What is this gentleman called? The waiter asked flatteringly.
“…… My surname is Shigeori. I shook off her outstretched hand and casually made up a last name.
"Okay, Mr. Shigerori, come with me."
After turning several bad alleys, I finally arrived at the so-called "top gambling house". I took out another tip and threw it to the waiter.
I heard her. She taunted me in her heart, and wished that the so-called "vampire princess" would ruin my family later.
The door was pushed open. Before a panicked guy in a mask, I saw an insolent sign on the door.
"The odds between a guest who comes to the casino and Miss Vampire are one to five hundred."
It's really ...... Insolence to the extreme......
I gently took the handle and pushed the door in.
It's a little darker. There was nothing but a rectangular gaming table, a sofa, a cabinet next to the sofa, and curtains that blocked half of the space.
I sat down on the couch softly, knocked on the table, and shouted, "Good afternoon, Princess Vampire - or, rather, Miss Serres." ”
Then a girl in a black gothic costume with a petite Lolita charm squeezed out of it.
"Good afternoon, sir. What do you call it? Cyrus asked me with her hands crossed, in the usual anime pose, and with a smile.
Although his expression was smiling, Cyrus was still able to release an aura of arrogance. The smile on his face, which is whiter than a vampire, is almost like saying "another idiot".
The reputation of "Miss Vampire Cyrus" ...... I think that in the gray-black realm of this world, I am afraid that it is already too famous.
"You can call me...... Ghost Hand. ”
"It's funny," Cyrus chuckled, covering her mouth, "how is it the same as the news about repeat offenders who steal everywhere." ”
"If you believe it, if you don't believe it," I replied, "it is all the guests who come, and it seems irrelevant to the identity of the guests." ”
"Of course," Cyrus smiled again, looking rather charming, "anyway...... No one has beaten me yet. ”
"How about a game of chess?" I chuckled, "Just two minutes of rapid chess." ”
Very good. Although there are monitoring probes, there are no recording devices. So, what I'm going to say next shouldn't be heard.
"There's no tape recorder," I said coldly as Cyrus set up the chessboard and timer, "You know what I say, what you hear." Isn't it? ”
"I'm not going to release water," Celes interrupted without hesitation, "for whatever reason. ”
"On the contrary, I want you to take the fight seriously," I retorted, "so that when the talks are going to be together, you will realize your gap." ”
Two hands. On one side was a hand wearing a fake nail with a silver chain, and on the other side was a hand wearing a black tactical glove, and they all quickly picked up the chess pieces in the air and landed, and each quickly stretched out his hand and pressed the timer on the side.
White Soldier E5, Dark Horse C2.
White Horse F6, Black Soldier D4.
White Elephant F4, Black Horse C6.
"It's better to strike first," Cyrus said suddenly, "to strike first, and then defeat a strong enemy." ”
"Not necessarily," I picked up the black soldier as Cyrus pressed the timer, "and acting rashly without knowing the details of the other party is called looking for death." ”
The white soldier eats d4, and the black queen eats d4.
White horse F2, black rear D8.
Although there was no exchange of discs, white was all stuck at home, and black was attacking all the way.
"It's not going to be good." I chuckled.
White king short wing, black elephant e7.
White soldier F8, Black Horse D5.
"Don't be too happy," Celes said lightly, "not until the last minute." ”
"Maybe we can talk about it...... What if you fail? I asked.
White soldiers eat black elephants.
"Doesn't the punishment for the loser depend on the winner?" Celes sighed, "If the odds of five hundred to five hundred can't satisfy you, do you still want to ......?"
Black horses eat white soldiers.
"You're thinking too much," I said, "tomorrow morning at nine o'clock in the 'Kotobukiya' in Akihabara." I have a good deal, talk to you about it. ”
White horses eat black elephants.
"How can you be sure I'm coming?" Cyrese asked softly, "In other words." What are you going to do if I refuse to come? ”
I held up a finger and gently placed it in front of my lips. Due to the angle, I can be sure that at the end of the monitoring probe, it is estimated that the person in the monitoring room cannot see the chessboard clearly.
"Black Queen...... G8," I lowered my voice to make sure only Cyrus could hear me, "which seems to be called ...... Lore. But forget it, just take it as a deposit for tomorrow. ”
Then I shoved the $5 million chips on the table in front of me, pretended to be angry, pushed the couch, and slammed the door in a hurry. Only Celence, who was still ignorant at the beginning, and was in a hurry to turn the direction of the chessboard after reacting.
