The crowd gradually dispersed. It seems that no one wants to gamble with Roberia anymore, except for the guy who almost lost his wife Ben before. No matter how loudly she says, "Do you men have a good reputation and a little backbone?" Yes?! Or tempted, "If you win me, maybe I'll be able to stay with you for the night." "It's the same.

A few eager guys were quickly pulled by their companions. Then the bar was full of people and more than half of the people left.

"Cut, it's boring." It was when Robella wanted to leave that I sat across from her.

"Oh? Little handsome guy, do you want to have a handsome game? "Roberia was a little surprised, but more of a little more joyful, as if he had wronged me.

"Of course, what else would I do here?" I replied.

"Ah, it's also possible that you have fallen in love with other people's beauty and want to soak me." Roberia smiled and said rather bold words.

"That's how it should be." I shrugged my shoulders and snapped my fingers and asked the guy at the bar for another beer. Take a sip and put it in the corner of the table. I've been pretending to be aristocratic for so long, so it shouldn't matter if I indulge once in a while.

"Let's get started." Roberia said this as she tried to shuffle the cards - but before I could do that, I held down her wrist.

"I don't hate being so impatient, but it's ......" Before she could say the second half of the sentence, I unveiled her hole cards. Sure enough, it was neither a flush nor a straight flush. A club and a heart don't even have a pair, pure miscellaneous cards.

"Allah, you've found out."

Robella chuckled, seemingly unembarrassed at all.

"Sure enough, the more beautiful a woman is, the more she can lie." I didn't say anything more, and after a little emotion, I let go of her wrist. Sit back down, then take the poker, shuffle the cards, then cut the cards, and knock the cards on the table, which looked as neat as bricks.

"It's kind of interesting, it's different from the average useless man, little handsome guy." Roberia chuckled and reached out, ready to draw a card, but I stopped him again.

"Anything else?"

"Of course." I said, "Before we do that, let's explain what exactly we want to bet on, shall we?" ”

"You can bet on anything, the most ordinary thing is money, and one franc is fine, and there is no cap. Of course, if there is something valuable, you can do it. My eyesight won't let you down. ”

"Well, anything?" I asked again.

"Yes, anything." Roberia nodded yes.

"Well, then, let's bet on the most valuable things." I laughed wickedly: "The way of gambling remains the same, and there is a principal of one thousand francs per person." If you lose, you're mine. ”

"Oh? Hehehehehehe......" When Robella heard this, he couldn't help laughing, very happy: "What about you?" What do you want to lose to me if you lose? ”

"If I lose, I'll lose myself to you." I replied very seriously. So Robella couldn't hold back any longer, and laughed: "Funny, it's so funny, it's completely different from your appearance, little handsome guy, I can't see at all that you are such a shameless guy." ”

"No, no, no, I think it's a very fair bet, Robella. You see, one against one, isn't it? I said, "But if you really don't think it's appropriate, I'm not without a replacement." ”

As I said this, I pulled a small box out of my pocket and opened it.

In the dim light of the bar, a brilliant pink diamond appeared in front of Robella:

"You said you have good eyesight, so you should be able to estimate the value of this gem, right?"

"Yes, but I don't think any gem is worth more than mine." Roberia looked confident.

"Of course, you're the most charming woman I've ever met." I complimented, "No gemstone can compare to you." Even if I were to pile all the gems in the world together for me to choose, I would definitely choose yours, Roberia. ”

"You can really talk." Roberia smiled: "So, little handsome man, what do you want to do?" ”

"Then I'll bet on you with something else." I dropped the diamond on the ground. Hard and brittle diamonds don't have the same slogan as they say, forever or anything like that. It shattered into countless pieces at once.

Such a loser's action, even Roberia, who prides himself on seeing the world, is secretly frightened. However, she remained silent on the surface, and just smiled: "You, little handsome guy, I am becoming more and more interested in you." ”

"Then use Paris." So I said.

"Paris?"

"Paris." I nodded: "Take Paris as a bet." If I lose, I'll give you Paris. ”

“…… Hey, hey, it's not funny. Hearing me say this, Roberia was slightly irritated: "Who are you, Charlemagne or Napoleon?" ”

"Needless to say, that outdated stuff." I calmly replied, "You just have to tell me to say yes or no." ”

"Of course, how could I give up on such an interesting thing?" Roberia chuckled. Then he reached out again and grabbed a poker. This time, I didn't stop it. So, the gamble on the fate of the city and the fate of the girl began in such an understated casualness, in the dimly lit little bar. Each person's chips are a thousand francs, which feels very hilarious. But Robella will be serious, because he feels it, and I'm not kidding her.

……

An hour and a half later.

We just talked casually, drinking and playing cards. Roberia and I didn't seem worried, nervous or depressed at all. It's already two o'clock in the morning.

The only difference is the chips. In the game just now, Roberia had already lost almost eight hundred francs. At the beginning of the twentieth century, this was quite a lot of money.

This is the end of the game. I still looked relaxed as the winner, but Robella was starting to get a little nervous.

"But this time it should be fine, right?" I looked into her eyes, and her eyes looked at my cards, revealing something like this.

On the bright side, it's a two.

And then another two.

And then the third one.

So Robella couldn't laugh anymore. Her hand is exactly the same as the previous one, spades, five, six, seven.
