Chapter 1162: The realm of gambling (2)

“Come to think of it … When he challenged Mr. Jing, he was the one who chose the table. However, against that third-rate … He shouldn’t have had to cheat.” Jin mianchou thought to himself,”when I challenged him, I didn’t consider changing the table … But looking at it now, including this match … He’s already had three matches on the same table.”
He looked at the judge’s expressionless face, which was half-covered by the sunglasses, and then he turned to brother Jue.
“When he issued the first challenge, although he seemed to have randomly chosen the table closest to him, in the end … Isn’t it up to him to decide where he’ll stand ‘? In other words … The actual situation is very likely that Jian Jia found the judge he bribed among the many judges, then deliberately slipped to the table near the judge before challenging him. ” The more Jin mianchou thought about it, the more he felt that his reasoning was reliable.”He used the dramatic method of ‘spinning straw’ to choose the Challenger to cover up this fact. In a situation where no one was willing to step forward to fight, his actions would undoubtedly make the people around him exclaim that he ‘could even choose his opponent at random’, thus ignoring the two points of ‘the table was also chosen by him’ and ‘this table was likely not randomly chosen by him’.”
Di di di di di
Just as Jin Michou was deep in thought, an urgent buzzing sound interrupted his thoughts.!!
“The time limit for feedback is up, Sir.” The judge’s cold voice was heard.”The penalty for exceeding the time limit is 1% of the maximum amount of gold you can hold at the start. In addition, the next 30 seconds start immediately …” He looked at Jin mianchou and pointed at the timer.”The penalty for the next time will be 2%. Please take note.”
“This …” At this moment, Jin Michou finally realized that he had wasted too much time thinking about all sorts of things. For the first time in his life, he felt that … He didn’t have enough time to think.
This was a situation he had never encountered before …
Jin mianchou was an outstanding person. He was an “elite” in the true sense of the word.
His family was not well-off, but they were quite well-off. He had never attended a public school since he was young, so he was outstanding in any group.
Top-notch academic performance, top-notch athletic ability, and even looks were an innate advantage.
When he was a student, he was always associated with the words “cadre, representative, special student,” or, to put it more directly, he was the legendary “other people’s child.”
Before he graduated from University, he had already received an offer from a well-known company and became the youngest Senior Manager in the company’s history in his sixth year.
He was a typical winner in life. He almost didn’t know what a setback was because he never failed.
To be praised and to win … It was a matter of course for him. He was also very happy to bathe in the envious and Worshipful gazes of others.
In his eyes, the mediocre people who appeared in his life were all insignificant ‘extras’, and he … Was like the ‘main character’ of this world.
Until…He was thirty-two years old this year …
A month ago, Jin Michou had a disagreement with his superior on a certain project. He, who was conceited to the point of being headstrong, chose to ignore the other party’s dissuasion and forcefully carry out his own choice.
In the end … He was utterly defeated, causing a huge loss.
This gap, if he relied on himself … Even if he went bankrupt, he would not be able to make up for it. However, if he could get an eight-figure sum of liquid funds, he still had a way to mediate and remedy the situation. At least, no one would find out about his actions for a long time.
And so, he appeared on this ship today …
Today, as always, he thought that he was the “main character” here.
However … The nightmare-like reality gradually woke up this person who had not experienced many ups and downs in life.
And the name of the ‘reality’ was Feng bujue.
…………
“Hurry up and write.” Brother Jue saw that the man was still hesitating, so he smiled and said,”what? Do you think 1000 dollars is not enough? It’ll be 2000 if you go any further. ”
“I … I protest!” Jin Michou suddenly turned around and shouted at the organizer by the railing on the second floor.
His howl not only attracted the attention of the organizer, but also made many people in the main hall look in his direction.
“Ha …” The host opened his mouth and exhaled. He then stood up and looked at the other party.”What are you protesting about?”
“He bribed your people! They’re working together to cheat!” As Jin mianchou shouted at the host, he had already raised his hand to point at the man in the suit and sunglasses and brother Jue.
The judge was stunned and didn’t know how to react.
“Hehe …” When Feng bujue heard that, he spread his hands and laughed.”Look at that ‘Tattletale’ attitude of yours … Tsk, tsk, tsk …”
There was no actual meaning behind his taunting, but … He just liked it …
“My people … Have been bribed by him?” Two seconds later, the host also smiled and replied,”why do you say that? Do you have any evidence?”
“The evidence is this!” Jin Mian Chou shouted with certainty and raised the paper in his hand.
“What’s wrong with this piece of paper?” The host asked.
“He guessed 1A5B in the first round!” Jin mianchou replied.
“Oh …” The host replied weakly,”so?”
“So?” Jin Michou’s tone had changed.”So they must be working together to cheat!”
“He … Hehe …” After hearing this, the host shook his head and laughed dryly.
Almost at the same second, Feng bujue laughed in the same way.
“What are you laughing at?” Jin mianchou had already sensed that the atmosphere was not right, so he lowered his voice.
“Who said that … We can’t guess 1a and 5b in the first round?” The host asked.
“And who decided it … To guess 1A5B in the first round, it must be a cheat?” Feng bujue asked.
“Ridiculous!” “No!” The Golden-faced man shouted.”If he wasn’t cheating, how could he have guessed all six numbers in the first round?”
“Then … Did you see or see through his technique?” The host asked.
“I …” Jin Michou didn’t answer the question directly.”My method is to cooperate with the judge! The judge must be somewhere I can’t see … For example, in a blind spot … He must have given the number to the crow Man through hand gestures or secret signals!”
As soon as he said that, the adjudicator instinctively wanted to defend himself. However, he looked up at the organizer and swallowed his words.
He knew that … In front of the host, it was unnecessary to explain. The act of “explaining” itself was a kind of questioning of the organizer.
“No, he didn ‘t.” As the host spoke, he had already operated the tablet in his hand a few times. He pulled up the surveillance footage of Feng bujue and Jin mianchou’s table in the past few minutes and showed it in fast-forward mode.”From the video captured by this camera, it can be seen that he did not move at all. Be it his hands, feet, shoulders … They were all very stable. There was not even any movement of lips or fingers.”
“This …” Jin Michou saw this and said,”then Crow Man must have cheated in some other way! The judge either didn’t see it, or he was bribed by him … He pretended not to see it!”
The host let out a long breath, picked up the mysterious drink beside him, and took a sip. Then he said,”let me organize my thoughts …” He paused.”You accuse my men of cheating, but you can’t produce any evidence, nor can you tell me the exact method. The only thing you can rely on is …… The answer given by the opponent in the first round. ”
Even Jin mianchou could tell that he was in the wrong from his words. He quickly added,””No! “There are many other signs …” He pointed at Feng bujue.”He … When I finished writing the answer, he said something like ‘I see, it’s these numbers’! And he only declared seven rounds! These are all signs of cheating!”
“A sign …” The host sneered.”Hmph … That’s an interesting way to put it.” He turned to brother Jue and asked,”Mr. Crow, how do you explain this?”
“Psychological tactics.” Feng bujue gave a simple and concise reply.
“You heard it?” The host said to Golden Mask worriedly.
“He … This …” Jin Michou didn’t know what else to say. After all, he had no evidence, which was his weakness.
However, Jin Michou did not want the duel to continue because he had already decided that brother Jue had cheated. Taking a step back, even if brother Jue did not cheat, he was already 1A5B in one round, so the possibility of him guessing the answer within seven rounds was extremely high. In other words … Jin mianchou could not have made it to the eighth round before surrendering. If he lost the bet of 100000, he would be eliminated.
“Then … This round doesn’t count!” Jin mianchou continued,”I request a fresh start! And change the referee. ” He then turned to the organizer and said,”heh … How is it? In order to prove the fairness of the duel, I don’t think you will refuse …”
“Alright, alright, I know.” The host interrupted the other party and said to the man in the suit B beside him,”do it.”
“Yes, young master.” MAN B in the suit responded.
Before his voice died away, the nearly two-meter-tall brawny man jumped over the railing of the second floor, which was several meters tall.
His aura was like a fierce tiger coming down the mountain and an evil Dragon pouncing into the sea.
After landing on the ground, the man rushed to brother zhijue’s cart in five steps and grabbed Jin Michou’s shoulder with one hand.
“Ah!” Jin mianchou cried out in pain.
However, before he could say the second word, he was pressed to the ground by the other party with a set of skillful and powerful grappling skills.
“You … What are you doing!” Jin Michou, with his mask stuck to the ground, shouted loudly. He tried to resist, but he found that he was completely unable to move, as if he was being stepped on by an elephant.
“You’ve already been ‘completely defeated’.” Suited MAN B continued,”leave this place with me.”
“What? What nonsense are you spouting?” Jin Michou shouted even louder,”organizer! What was going on? Please explain!”
“Are you kidding me?” At this moment, the host had already sat down again and was leisurely playing with his tablet.”You’re still asking me what’s going on? Don’t you know the rules of the gambling table?”
“What … What rules?” Jin mianchou answered with difficulty.
“The rule is …” At this time, Feng bujue replaced the host and said to the gold-masked man,”those who cheat will have their hands and feet chopped off, or their lives will be taken.”
Jin Michou was exasperated when he heard this.””I … I’m not cheating! It’s you …”
“It’s the same to accuse the other party of cheating without any evidence. ” The next second, the host said,”why don’t you think about it? if what you said is true, what kind of treatment will my men receive?” He raised his hand and pointed at the judge.”The world of gambling is not the kind of place where you can point at someone’s nose and shout that they cheated while you stay out of it …” He shook his head.”You don’t have conclusive evidence, the ability to catch people red-handed, and the awareness of the consequences … And you dare to say that the other party is definitely cheating …”
Bang Bang Bang
The host immediately slammed the railing in front of him and shouted in a stern tone for the first time,””Do you think this is a kindergarten’s game room? He still dared to request for a rematch? And you want me to’ prove the fairness of the duel ‘?” He waved his arm and pointed.”If it wasn’t for the presence of a lady, I would’ve had your sh * t beaten out two minutes ago!” He paused for half a second and shouted to suit MAN B,”he signed a ‘protection contract’, right? Drag him out immediately!”
“Yes!” The big man in the suit moved his knee away from the Golden-faced sad column, picked up the guy, and left.
“No… Don ‘t!” At this moment, Jin Michou finally knew fear, but begging for mercy … Was undoubtedly too late.
“Hold on.” To his surprise, at that moment, Feng bujue suddenly called out and tried to call for suit MAN B’s bet.
However … Big man B in the suit ignored brother Jue. It was as if he didn’t hear anything. He wrapped his steel-like arms around Jin Michou’s neck and dragged him out.
“Hold on,” Two seconds later, the host spoke again, and this time, MAN B stopped.
“Mr Crow, do you have any other opinions?” The host asked.
“No, no, I just … Have a few words to tell Jin Michou.” As Feng bujue said that, he strode forward and stood before Jin Michou.
The latter’s expression at the moment was almost the same as the mask he was wearing.
“Mr … Mr. Crow …” Jin Michou sobbed and said to brother Jue,”help me! I’ll give you 3…No… 50000!”
Brother Jue ignored the man’s begging and continued,””Do you want to know why I was able to guess 1A5B in the first round?”
Jin mianchou was taken aback by the question. He replied woodenly,””W-why?”
“Actually, it’s very simple,” Feng bujue said.”It’s just my guess.”
“That’s impossible!” Jin mianchou replied almost instinctively.
“No, that’s easy.” “First of all, you must have written a 1,” brother Jue said.”That’s what I ‘saw’ because when you wrote the number 1, the movement of the pen was very obvious. I’m sure that there must be a ‘ 1’ in the answer.
“Secondly, you must have written an 8 and a 9 as well, because you know that my guessing habit is to start from six zeros. If the answer doesn’t contain an 8 or 9, it can help me save one round. At least, before I made the ‘seven rounds’ declaration, your way of thinking was reasonable.
“And now, it’s just a simple guess …
“Due to my job, I have done a lot of research on puzzle-solving, and I once read about it in a document from the 1990s … When people randomly write numbers, the three most common numbers are 3,5, and 8. Even though I wasn’t sure if the information was reliable, it was just a guess. There was no need for me to’ confirm ‘anything. In addition, in my previous duel with Mr. Jing, the numbers he wrote also included these three numbers. In a sense, it can also be regarded as evidence.
“In short, at this point, I have the five numbers 13589.
“Then … I considered ‘repetition’. Adding a repetition will increase the confusion of the answer. You know this very well, and I don’t think you will let it go. Which one is the repetition? “If you follow the order I guessed … It’s best to choose 9. This will ensure that I won’t get all six numbers until the ninth round.
“So, I wrote ” 135899. That’s the origin of the answer.”
“No…” Jin mianchou stammered,”…No!” You lied to me! It couldn’t be such a coincidence! “The reason of guessing 1,8,9, and 9 is still valid, but 3 and 5 …” He swallowed his saliva and said,”the probability of guessing more than four correctly is very high, but if you get all of them right …”
“I didn’t plan to guess all of them.” “My original plan was to’ guess four to five numbers correctly in the first round ‘,” Feng bujue said.”As long as I can do that, my plan will be considered a success.”
This sentence was like a sharp arrow that pierced through Jin Michou’s heart, causing his blood flow to stop.
“You … You didn’t plan to complete this duel …” Jin mianchou muttered after a few seconds of thinking.
“You finally understand.” Feng bujue replied calmly,”as I said before, you are a ‘second-rate’. The difference between a third-rate and a second-rate was that the former was too weak, while the latter was self-righteous. Therefore, compared to third-rate sects, second-rate sects are more likely to be ‘implanted with ideas’.” He shrugged.”To tell you the truth, I … Never intended to cheat. I just gave you a feeling that ‘I must have cheated’ through my ‘previous performance’. And in a moment of desperation, you made a ‘suicidal’ reaction. ”
When Jin mianchou heard this, he seemed to realize something.””Could … Could it be? When you were playing against Mr. Jing, you were already …”
“Yes, I am.” Brother Jue smiled.”At that time, I had already completed my ‘plan’.”The reason I asked the judge about ‘cheating’ in public was that … In the following duels, I might meet some opponents who are very outstanding in the ‘domain of calculation’. At this time, the shadow that I buried in the opponent’s heart …’As long as I don’t get caught cheating, I can safely pass’ became an invincible blade in my psychological battle.”
Shock, despair, fear, and unwillingness …
Feng bujue’s philosophy flowed in the air. He made Jin Michou feel a complicated and indescribable sense of defeat.
After a moment of silence, Jin mianchou spoke again,””One day, I’ll come back … Five years, ten years … I’ll pay off my debt and start again! When the time comes, I’ll have to … Reply to you on the gambling table …”
“Hmph … How naïve,” Feng bujue chuckled coldly and interrupted,”one day?” Dongshan rises again? Ha … People who say such words when they fail will probably only gradually get used to failure …”
As he spoke, he put his hands in his pockets and took two steps back.””It’s just like the mentality you had when you challenged me …’Because you’re not sure if you’ll still have an advantage in the next game, you want to get rid of the potential enemy first’. However, the world of gambling had never been reasonable. People lose everything for some inexplicable reason, and even die … That is a gamble. Your level of scheming and your plan of ‘putting yourself in a safe place as soon as possible’… Will not work here. Not only will it not work, but it will also cause you to bring about your own destruction. ”
At this point, Feng bujue had already turned around and left.””A person who hasn’t really sat on the gambling table yet is full of confidence and wants to win … Ridiculous. You’d better go back to the field you’re familiar with and pay for the other wrong decisions you’ve made in your life. ”
