At the moment of passing by, the dealer who was originally in charge of "roulette" whispered a word. Xiang Yun turned his face in surprise, just in time to meet her hesitant gaze. The latter's lips opened slightly, but in the end he did not say anything more.
At this moment, Xiang Yun realized that the victory and defeat just now was not simple.
In casinos, it is very common for gamblers to change seats or even tables, which is not necessarily a loss and leaves the table, some are just superstitious to change their luck. In contrast, the situation of dealer substitution also occurs from time to time, but this is not in response to the illusory transfer, most of the reason is that the gambler's methods have exceeded the dealer's control, and stronger people are needed.
The departing dealer was clearly in a difficult position, so she obediently gave up her position after losing a game and left the strange colleague to handle it for her. And she obviously wanted to give Xiang Yun a hint, but in the game just now, even she didn't figure out where she lost, so she considered that in the end, it was just a pale sentence of "pay attention to the timing".
"Watch the timing...... What to pay attention to when to do it? β
Xiang Yun maintained the calm on his face, but his mind was spinning rapidly, trying to find the real hint from this sentence. At the same time, her own rhythm was not disrupted. In these few steps to the dealer's position, her gaze slowly swept over the scene, silently observing the expressions of each gambler.
At this time, she finally saw the man's face.
Judging from his facial features, this person looks quite ordinary, not handsome, but not ugly, the kind of standard passerby face that you can't find when thrown into the crowd, except for the ponytail, which is simply featureless, it is not difficult to understand why he was able to weaken his sense of existence to that extent before. But underneath the ordinary appearance, only those eyes made Xiang Yun's gaze stay for a few extra seconds. Compared with his whole temperament, his eyes were particularly sharp, like a sharp blade that had just been unsheathed, flashing with a different kind of cold light.
Just now, those eyes were still quietly looking at Xiang Yun, as if they wanted to engrave her every little movement into their eyes. But this sense of oppression only lasted for a short moment, and at the same time that Xiang Yun noticed it, these eyes suddenly lost their brilliance, and the man's body was completely integrated, shrouded in a mediocre aura.
It was not an unpleasant reaction, but the tiger's unintentional fangs were enough to alert its prey.
"Okay, okay, everyone, let's start again."
Xiang Yun had a professional smile on his face, but his heart trembled at the glimmer of truth he had just glimpsed. She ran her fingers around the surface of the wheel, then rolled the ball on it to show that there was no mechanism in between, and then flicked the wheel and let it spin smoothly to mean the same thing. On casinos, these are quite normal moves.
In reality, however, while she was attracting everyone's attention with these movements, Xiang Yun's other hand was groping around the edge of the table, trying to find out what she had speculated should be thereβthe secret mechanism that controlled the roulette.
She felt a small button.
"Okay, then we're ready to go." She smiled and held up the ball, "The dealer has changed, do you need to change the ball?" β
Taking advantage of the moment when everyone subconsciously looked at the ivory ball, Xiang Yun gently pressed the button. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the roulette wheel move imperceptibly, tilting slightly to her side. Sharp-eyed people may notice this change, but if it is used in gambling, everyone's attention is followed by the ball, and it is difficult to notice that the roulette wheel itself is moving. Although it tilts slightly, it is well controlled enough to roll the depleting ball into the designated grid.
"She just said to pay attention to the timing, to remind me that I can use this mechanism?"
As soon as the idea came to her, she immediately rejected it.
"That's not right." Xiang Yun thought secretly, "Although this mechanism is unknowable to the guests, it should not be a secret among the dealers, and it can even be said to be the default rule on this ship." Although she didn't know me, I was also a dealer, and she should have assumed that I knew about it, and there was no reason to specifically remind me that there were still mechanisms to use. β
"But there's another possibility that she's actually talking about this mechanism, but it's a reminder that I can't use it as I normally would, but rather pay attention to the timing and use it at a different time than usual. In other words, something must have happened in that game that cannot be solved by this usual approach. β
In just one or two seconds of showing the ball, Xiang Yun's brain had quickly sorted out the clues he had found so far, but he failed to guess the most important core of the event. With doubts, she took one last look at the "ponytail", and suddenly found that in the little time she was distracted and thinking, Lu Jia had come here at some point!
He was standing behind the man, looking down thoughtfully at the ponytail and red scarf. He held the half-smoked cigar in his right hand, but rubbed his thumb lightly on it, looking very hesitant.
Obviously, he had recognized the features in the memo, but he was still a little hesitant to connect with the other party. From this point, it is not difficult to see that the two should meet for the first time, and like Xiang Yun, this old fox also plans to take a look at each other's appearance first, and then consider the next behavior.
It's just that Xiang Yunbian doesn't intend to let him get his wish.
"The equipment has been shown, since everyone has no opinion, then you can start betting, is there anyone else going to enter......"
Xiang Yun smiled and looked around, but this smile was obviously frozen when he saw Lu Jia. The eve of the opening game is when everyone's attention is at its highest, and they naturally don't let go of the subtle changes on the dealer's face. Xiang Yun was stunned, everyone looked in the direction of her gaze, even the ponytail turned around and looked up, and Lu Jia, who originally just wanted to watch in a low-key manner, suddenly became the focus of attention
Seeing this, Lu Jia had no choice but to shrug his shoulders, simply pulled out the chair, and sat down directly next to the ponytail. He reached into his arms, took out a chip and threw it directly at the "number 13" position.
The chips are black, one for one million, which is the second largest in this casino. As the first hand after entering the game, this bet is inevitably a little reckless, but it shows the pride of the bettor.
Xiang Yun's brows moved slightly, his ponytail was stunned, and the crowd of onlookers was also in an uproar.
"Since it's a game of chance, it doesn't matter if it's tempting, just play bigger."
Lu Jia laughed and explained to the surroundings, but the words he said seemed to have another meaning. He glanced at the ponytail meaningfully, and when he turned his head, his gaze fell on Xiang Yun's face again.
"Miss Dealer, I've placed a bet, can I start?" He asked with a smile.
"Then we'll have to see if the other guests want to bet." Xiang Yunjiao replied with a smile, and at the same time secretly gave Lu Jia a step.
"Makes sense."
Lu Jia nodded, not letting go of this opportunity. He then turned his head to the ponytail and said, "Then little brother, are you going to bet?" Do you want to consider following me? It is said that wealth and luck depend on nobles, and if you meet me today, it will be your luck. β
He took a deep breath of his cigar, threw his head up and let out a long puff of smoke and laughed. Everyone saw that this rich man had already had a good time, and knew that if they wanted to have a good relationship, now was the best opportunity. So for a while, everyone followed suit, and the small grid of "No. 13" was soon filled with large and small chips.
However, the ponytail himself only smiled, and the chips he tossed with his fingertips spun around and pressed back against his table.
"For me, it's not the time to bet yet." His words also seemed to mean something else, "Mr. Lu can cast a wide net and try to be happy, but my family has a thin foundation, and if I want to win, I can only find a chance and find a way." β
Lu Jia smiled, "Isn't this kind of roulette game just to see who is lucky, and there is still a reason to find an opportunity and find a way?" β
Ponytail also smiled. "There's a lot of truth to that." He leaned over with a smile and whispered a few words in Lu Jia's ear. The attention of the surrounding people was already focused on them, and at this time, they all pricked up their ears to hear what he said. Helplessly, the ponytail spoke in too small a voice, and the others could only see the smile on the corner of Lu Jia's mouth getting thicker and thicker, but they couldn't capture the mystery in it.
"Okay, good, interesting, then wait to see what you can do!"
Lu Jia stroked his palms and laughed, looking very happy. At the same time, the corner of Xiang Yun's eyes caught a gaze cast from the adjacent table. It was the dealer who was in charge of the roulette wheel before, although she had changed shifts with Xiang Yun at this time and was sitting on the side of "blackjack", but her mind always had a part of her mind to pay attention to the movements here. Obviously, she was also a little worried that Xiang Yun would not be able to cope with it.
"If there was any information, I should have made it clear just now." Xiang Yun could only smile bitterly.
With all the chips on the table settled, she had to announce the start of the game and let the roulette wheel spin. According to the rules, gamblers can still place bets while the wheel is spinning, and usually bet larger at this time than at the beginning of the game. It's just that Lu Jia's one million has set a too high threshold for this table, and everyone has placed a lot of bets from the beginning, which is equivalent to pressing the amount of money to be placed in a game at the beginning. So during the time when the ball was rolling, Lu Jia did not bet, and the others did not dare to move, but there was a strange scene of no one betting in the process.
At the last minute, the ball slowed down, and the otherwise steady arc began to sway, as if it could fall into one of the squares at any moment. At this moment, no matter how seasoned gamblers are, they will inevitably look forward to it, and Lu Jia can't help but stand up, staring at the ivory ball with his eyes, and chanting the words "Thirteen, thirteen......
Not only him, but almost everyone in the audience was praying. The ball rolled slower and slower, and when it was about to pass the small grid of "No. 13", it suddenly shook for a moment, and then it slid down, and it was about to roll in!
"Get in!"
Everyone's wishes converged in a single voice, so loud that it almost toppled the ceiling of this hall. However, just as the ball was about to fall into the grid, it was suddenly touched by the partition again, and finally fell into the next grid.
"Ugh."
Even the sighs were deafening.
Xiang Yun secretly wiped a handful of sweat in his heart. This was the first game, and it was only the first time she had used the mechanism, and she almost failed to master the power well, which was self-defeating. In fact, this game could have done nothing, and the probability of one in thirty-six was very small after all, and it would not have been possible to win the jackpot when it came up. She thought that she could ensure safety as long as the engine turned off when the ball rolled to the other half of the circle, but she didn't expect that the effect of the mechanism was a little different from what she expected, and she almost sent it directly.
"But I've tried it myself, and I'll be sure next time." Xiang Yun secretly cheered for himself.
Although it was none of her to lose money in the casino, she always felt uneasy when she couldn't find out the secret that Ponytail told her. This uneasiness is not only directed at the gambling game, but also at other things. She knew that although it was just a gamble in front of her, it carried the burden of three people observing each other, but fortunately, she was the only one in the shadows so far.
Regardless of the process, this round is always a win for the dealer. Xiang Yun swept the chips on the table in front of him, and then announced the start of the second game with an elegant smile.
But the moment she saw the ponytail betting, her face changed significantly.
"That's what you think?"
She almost blurted out the amazement.
