In Japan, the development of private gambling is quite strictly controlled.

But even so, gamblers can always find a place to have fun.

In many neighborhoods, especially near the station, there are many small legal casinos called "pachinko".

Pachinko is home to a variety of gambling machines, including pinball machines, slot machines, and fishing machines.

This small gambling venue is very popular in Japan, and you can see adults of all ages coming to sit in this place for a day.

Japan's gambling law stipulates that pachinko establishments are defined as entertainment establishments and cannot be gambling in nature.

The points and chips won by customers in various machines can only be exchanged for small gifts at the front desk, and cannot be exchanged for money directly.

However, among the gifts that can be redeemed, there is one called the Gold Coin Card.

As long as customers grab their coin card and leave pachinko to go to the nearest convenience store, it will be easy to find a "coin card for cash" business.

After going around in a circle.

Pachinko venues do not support points for cash, pure entertainment; And customers who want to make money with money can also get what they want.

Everything is legal and compliant!

However, the gambling in Pachinko is only a small fight after all.

And if you want to gamble big, you either go to a legal gambling horse farm, or you can go to an illegal underground casino or sparrow casino.

Meguro-ku, Tokyo.

A street with no features.

In the depths of the alley, under an ordinary low-rise building, is an underground casino with no name.

The noisy human voices and the choking smell of smoke are the main themes here.

The underground casino is divided into two large areas, with people on one side playing Texas Hold'em and people on the other side playing mahjong.

At the edge of the field, there are also a few pachinko machines scattered around.

In the venue where the sun is playing, at the third table in the vertical row, there is a middle-aged man who is not good-looking.

At the age of nearly 40 years old, his appearance looks a little decadent, but when he rubs mahjong, he is full of energy.

This man's name is Nagatomo Takahei, the father of Xiao Pingtou.

Sitting across from Takahei Nagatomo was a woman in her mid-30s who looked like a housewife, and now it was her turn to play her cards.

The woman was very hesitant, holding up her signs, and from time to time she would glance at Nagatomo Takahei opposite.

No way.

Nagatomo Takahei was very lucky, and he had several handfuls of beard, which made the woman a little jealous.

"Auntie, hurry up, Auntie." A yellow-haired young man on the side urged impatiently.

The woman rubbed the corners of her forehead: "Eight cylinders." ”

Nagatomo Takahei instantly became more energetic, and he pushed the card in front of him: "Hu! One go through twice, one Treasure Brand, one Roubao Brand, four times. ”

"Tsk." The other three people at the table didn't have very good expressions.

I was fooled by this man again.

Whoop -

After counting the chips, all the cards are knocked down.

The mahjong machine shuffles the cards with a bang, and at the same time quickly creates a new deck.

Once again, the crowd was in the middle of the game.

On the belt around Nagatomo Takahei's waist, a round bell with a golden metallic color hangs and is tied to a red rope.

Golden ball bells.

Of course, the so-called Golden Ball Bell is just a name.

The bell is not really made of gold, but brass, which is not worth much in itself.

Strictly speaking, this golden ball bell is not the property of Takatohei Nagatomo, but his wife, Nagetsu Kono.

Before his death, Kono's father left some relics for his daughter. There's a bunch of worthless things in it, and that includes this bell.

After Kono got this thing, he didn't take it too seriously, and stored it at the bottom of the box with other relics.

It wasn't until not long ago that Takahei Nagatomo happened to rummage through the bell.

The time to play mahjong always flies quickly, and before you know it, you have played three more rounds.

Changyou Longping didn't win these games, but he didn't shoot either, and even played a game.

I just didn't lose much anyway.

The four gamblers at the table were tireless, and the new game was played for about seven or eight minutes, and Nagatomo Takahei happily pushed the cards: "Self-draw." One in the service card, two times in one color, one self-draw, four times. ”

After playing for almost an afternoon today, he has already made a lot of money.

The remaining three poker players were again digging out their chips with bitter faces.

At this time, there was a soft exclamation on the edge of the table, which could not be heard by normal people: "Ah! ”

The voice was made by a little girl who looked to be about seven or eight years old, wearing a red kimono and a doll's head.

A delicate little face with a little baby fat, very cute, people can't help but want to pinch it when they see it.

There is no doubt that this is Zashiki Boy.

The only regret is that there is such a cute face, but this seat always likes to put on a mournful expression.

The little girl with a sad face has been standing at the edge of the card table since Nagatomo Takahei sat down to play mahjong. However, none of the people present could see her.

Including Nagatomo Takahei is the same.

In addition, since the first game of hemp, there has been a red aura lingering on the body of Zashiki boy, which is gentle and auspicious.

However, things changed about half a minute ago, and the original auspicious red turned into an ominous black.

Because of this, Zashiki just screamed.

"Ahh

The aura on his body had become ominous, and he began to reach out and pull the hem of Nagatomo Takahei's clothes.

However, the latter was completely unnoticed.

As an ordinary person, and an adult who still has difficulty seeing Zashiki, it is impossible for Nagatomo Ryuhei to notice.

A new round begins.

This one, Nagatomo Takahei's luck is still good, and he listens to W Lizhi at the beginning.

According to the rules of Nichima, after doing riichi, you can hit whatever you touch.

But it doesn't matter, Nagatomo Takahei can play four cards in this game.

"Win a few more and you'll be off the table." He thought so in his heart, and this one seemed to be inevitable.

Fighting, the housewife on the opposite side and the little yellow hair on the side also stood upright.

Changyou Longhei touched a card of 50,000, not to Hu, and played it.

After this card was released, the expressions of the remaining three people on the table changed, one was happy, and two were ecstatic.

"Hu!"

"Hu!"

"Hu!"

Almost at the same time, all three knocked down the cards in front of them.

"Stand straight, serve the card white, one breath through two, mix one color three times, treasure card three times. Ten times, double full! ”

"Riichi one, seven pairs twice, two Treasure cards, one Ruby card, two times the Libao card. Eightfold, double full! ”

"Broken ninety-one, two-fold, three-fold. Six, jump full! ”

This one is 50,000, and there are three artillery points, and all of them are Hu Gaofan.

Nagatomo Takahei only felt that the world was spinning, and his eyes were dark.

"Ah......h

And the boy who was emitting black gas on his body was regretful and silently loosened the hem of Mr. Nagatomo's clothes.

Oh, I just reminded you.
