Chapter 21: Breaking the Deadlock
"I'm eight o'clock." Gundam reveals its cards.
"I'm seven o'clock, a little bit worse than you, congratulations, brother master, you won again!" Zhuo Ao threw his cards out unconcernedly.
"Hey, brother, why am I not happy at all when I won, your attitude really makes me feel very unfulfilled in winning." Gundam looked at the chips in his hand, and sighed speechlessly, for so many years, it was the first time that someone had lost and congratulated the winner, and most importantly, the expression on his face was so special that Gundam, who was looking forward to seeing his opponent frustrated and annoyed, had a feeling of punching the cotton with all his strength.
"The way you look now, you're really fighting!" Zhuo Ao casually flipped over his cards, rolled his eyes and said, "You have won again." ”
"A lot of people think so, but no one has ever delivered on it." Gundam shrugged his shoulders in a chic manner, looked at Zhuo Ao and said, "I really want you to be the first, but it looks difficult, how about a drink together in a while?" ”
"I'm sorry, I don't drink with men." Zhuo Ao has lost three in a row, but the chips on the table are not much less, because he only presses the smallest bet each time, so that he can play for a long time, but for Gundam, this is undoubtedly the most painful for him, his good gambling skills do not mean good luck, ten bets and nine cheats, each one wins, does not mean that each is really bigger than Zhuo Ao's cards, and the change of cards will not be discovered by the people around him, it is really a very energy-consuming thing, and the final result is that he can only win so much, but he is also a proud gambler, as long as he is on the table, I will never allow myself to lose, so it is really entangled to meet an opponent like Zhuoao.
Hearing Zhuo Ao's words, Gao Gao choked on a puff of cigarette in his throat, coughed uncomfortably twice, and stared at Zhuo Ao fiercely: "I'm not interested in men!" Any idea what my nickname is? Prodigal! Do you understand what he means? ”
"I don't understand, but this prodigal son, it looks like you lost." Zhuo Ao glanced at the Gundam card in surprise, six points, a little smaller than himself.
"Uh......" Gao Gao looked at the cards in front of him in amazement, and then looked at Zhuo Ao speechlessly: "Forget it, don't gamble, you are the first person to win money from me at the table, although it is only a thousand yuan, but for me, it is definitely a shame, I will ......"
"Win it back?" Zhuo Ao looked up and looked at Gundam in surprise.
"Uh......" Gundam's expression froze on his face, it seems that winning a rookie like Zhuo Ao is not a difficult thing at all, and the most important thing is that people have never cared about winning or losing, Gundam tangled and found that he seemed to want revenge, but he couldn't find the direction, he glanced at Zhuo Ao depressedly, threw his sleeves and left.
"I'm not gambling anymore, it's boring." At this moment, another wealthy businessman also stood up and walked away with a gloomy face, betting with Gundam, he lost endlessly, and betting with Zhuo Ao won more and lost less, but the lowest bet at a time, once the chips were added, the other party immediately passed, and he couldn't find the pleasure of spending a lot of money on the gambling table.
The others looked at Zhuo Ao and walked away one by one, and after a while, Zhuo Ao was left alone at the table.
"Gambling is a disease, it can be cured, and my brother is the one who specializes in curing this!" Taking back his chips, Zhuo Ao remembered that in the original story, Gundam should have had a conflict with the boss, but because of his own participation, a heart-wrenching gamble became unremarkable, and it was also an indirect avoidance of a conflict, well, doing good deeds, should be praised.
"If you can force a gambling master like the Prodigal Son Gundam to quit, you can't see that you are still a gambling master." The cold voice was accompanied by a gust of fragrant wind, and the figure of the bud appeared in front of Zhuo Ao.
"I thought you had forgotten about me." Inexplicably, the originally depressed mood suddenly brightened up a lot, looking at the bud with a cold face, Zhuo Ao smiled.
"I'm not as ruthless as some cold-blooded animals, and I can still remember the life-saving grace." Yazi snorted coldly and said, "Getting back to business, your gambling skills are so powerful, why have I never heard your name before?" ”
Zhuo Ao knows that Bud has a high status in the police department, and has his own ambitions, and he knows about some famous criminals or gray characters, such as Gundam.
Stalling hands: "Just bet two and you'll know." ”
"Humph!" With a light snort, the bud glanced at the dealer with a twitching expression and said, "Deal." ”
Half an hour later, the tangled Bud stood up, shook his head and said, "I know why Gundam will automatically quit, and I have some sympathy for him when I gamble with you." ”
"Hmm." Zhuo Ao nodded, and put his chips back together: "He is a proud gambler, and he can't allow himself to fail once, but ...... In this world, no matter how strong the gambling master, there will be a day when the horse stumbles, for them, the higher they go, the worse they lose, I think in this world, there is only one way to guarantee never losing. ”
"Male, what's the method? Teach me! Da Bo Mei didn't know when to come over, looking at Zhuo Ao excitedly, if there is really this method, then what kind of policeman is she, what kind of golden beetle is fishing, as long as she masters such a gambling technique, in this life, she has no worries about food and clothing, in her mind, she can't help but look forward to a better future, and the buds on the side are also curious to look at Zhuo Ao.
"A lot of things, think about it from a different angle, in fact, the answer will be very simple." Zhuo Ao handed the chips to the dealer, looking at the hesitant dealer, Zhuo Ao rolled his eyes, and said to the big wave girl with an expectant face: "The way to never lose is to ......"
"What is it?" The big wave girl leaned forward expectantly, not caring at all that she was gone at the moment.
"Never Gamble Again!" After Zhuo Ao finished speaking, he turned his head to the dejected dealer without squinting and said, "Can you help me exchange my chips?" At this moment, his chips seem to be at least half more than at the beginning, no way, get used to it, and unconsciously, from the hands of Gundam and others, let his assets be doubled by half.
"Huh~" is probably too far from what she thought in her heart, Da Bo Mei couldn't help but compare her middle finger, seeing Zhuo Ao's sweeping gaze, she couldn't help but lose her momentum, and retracted her fingers in a sneer, but the buds on the side couldn't help laughing, and then found that something was wrong, resumed her cold look, and pulled the big wave girl who was frightened by Zhuo Ao's momentum at that moment, and left without looking back.
Looking at the direction of the two, Zhuo Ao sighed, and walked up, what is there to be entangled, a manly man, how can he be entangled because of a woman.
"Hey, Yazi, did you see it just now, the look in his eyes just now is really scary." Da Bo Mei said to the bud with palpitations.
"It's not surprising, he's a fighter in the underground boxing tournament, and it seems that it's still the top one, you'd better not provoke him in the future, otherwise, no one will help you." Bud said indifferently.
"No wonder...... Uh......" Da Bo Mei said halfway, her voice stopped abruptly, looking at Yazi's puzzled eyes, and pointed to Zhuo Ao behind her now.
"Let's go!" Yazi glanced at it, turned around, and was about to leave with Da Bomei, but the hand that was just stretched out was grabbed by Zhuo Ao.
"This young lady, I want to talk to her alone, please leave." Zhuo Ao ignored the struggles of the buds, and looked directly at the big wave girl, although she was not a superior person, but the cold arrogance honed in the Colosseum, once it was used, the big wave girl couldn't hold it.
"Oh." nodded subconsciously and turned around obediently to leave.
"What the hell do you want to do!?" Bud looked at Zhuo Ao angrily.
"I'm supposed to ask you, right?" Zhuo Ao reluctantly let go of Yazi's hand, rolled his eyes and said, "You also said that I am your life-saving benefactor, is this the attitude towards your life-saving benefactor?" ”
"Hmph, you know it yourself." Yazi turned his head, looked at him coldly, and said, "Why did you throw away my business card?" That was the first time I volunteered to give someone a business card! ”
"Uh...... Did you see that? When Zhuo Ao heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I thought that we wouldn't have a chance to meet again, so it's better to be decisive than to stay and feel uncomfortable." ”
"Hmph." Yazi clasped his hands to his chest: "You can be decisive to the end." ”
"You still don't understand your charm." Zhuo Ao sighed and said: "As long as I see your man, I'm afraid it's hard to restrain myself from approaching your **, like a blooming poppy, knowing that it is poisonous, but people still can't help but want to get closer." ”
"I didn't promise you anything." Bud sneered, "I just want to treat you as an ordinary friend." ”
"It's not bad, in the first place, it can't give you happiness." Zhuo Ao laughed.
"Haven't tried, how do you know?" Yazi said casually, but then, he also felt that his words were a little ambiguous, and his fair cheeks unconsciously flushed.
"There are some things that you don't need to try." Zhuo Ao smiled helplessly, and in the annoyed gaze of Yazi, he took off his coat and naturally put it in Yazi's hand: "Help me take it, suddenly, I really want to swim." ”
"You ......" Bud frowned and wanted to say something, but the next moment, watching Zhuo Ao take off his shirt, accompanied by a burst of exclamations around him, Bud Zi's eyes widened, and for a while, he forgot to speak.
Zhuo Ao's muscles are very smooth, and his figure is not bad, so that the big wave girl can say the title of a man, which is enough to show the pride of Zhuo Ao's figure, but this is not the reason for the exclamations around, I saw that at this moment, Zhuo Ao's body, there is almost no complete skin, criss-crossing scars, covered with Zhuo Ao's strong body, Bud Zi, as a police elite who is aspiring to sprint to a higher position, at this moment, it can be seen that those scars, at least eight are enough to kill, and there are repeated scars in some places.
"You ......" Bud Zi looked at Zhuo Ao with a complicated gaze.
"My life is coming to an end, and now every step I take, my life will be overdrawn, feelings for me are a very luxurious thing, happiness, it's not that I don't want to fight for it, but I know that even if I win it, it will only bring you harm." Zhuo Ao said very casually (well, I'll admit it's indeed pretending to be X).
"Come out for a walk with me." Bud threw the clothes back to Zhuo Ao and walked straight to the outside of the clubhouse.
