My MCV and Doomsday Novel - Chapter 180

Chapter 180: Local Tyrant

Jiang Liushi noticed several macho men in the four corners of the casino; they were in charge of security. They were wearing black suits, deliberately revealing the guns on their waist.

Ran Xiyu’s voice suddenly sounded in Jiang Liushi’s mind, “There is someone that possesses a psychic ability similar to mine.”

“Similar to yours?”

“Yes. He is sitting next to a small table on the left.” Ran Xiyu continued.

Jiang Liushi was walking, while looking around. He noticed a dark-eyed man, sitting in a humble corner, looking down at his phone. If Ran Xiyu didn’t mention, Jiang Liushi wouldn’t have noticed him at all.

“He must be in charge of detecting people like me and watch over here,” Ran Xiyu said.

“How do you know?” Jiang asked.

“When we walked in, I felt that someone was observing us.” Ran Xiyu said.

Jiang Liushi thought, and turned around asking that lady, “What are the casino’s rules?”

“Nobody is allowed to use special abilities in any game. If someone gets caught, he or she will be forced out of the premises. Moreover, the casino doesn’t provide chips, so you should use food stamps or other resources.” That girl said.

“Ah,” Jiang Liushi nodded, then he said in his mind, [He should be monitoring the paranormals.]

[I feel that his mental strength should be weaker than mine.] Ran Xiyu said.

Jiang nodded and decided to pay a little bit of attention to that person.

“Sir, in our casino you can on tables for blackjack, Texas Hold’em, Baccarat, and so on, which are our mainstream games. Miss and Sir, which one would you like to play?” The girl went on to ask.

“I’m sorry, I don’t know how or what to play.” Jiang Liushi said.

“So Mr., is it your first time visiting a casino? I think you could start with Craps.” The girl’s smile had always been sweet.

Craps was the game of shaking dice. Jiang Liushi noticed one table, packed with guys shouting “big!” and “little!” Those gamblers were all with red faces.

Seeing Jiang Liushi having little interest in the game, the girl smiled and said, “Sir, you can play…”

“What games give the highest interest?” Jiang Liushi interrupted her and asked.

The girl was shocked for a moment, then a girl wearing a business suit, black socks and high heels, like a white – collar woman, walked toward them and said, “Sir, you want to play some exciting games, right?” Jiang Liushi glanced at her without speaking but he consciously or unconsciously touched his bulging pockets.

The white-collar woman suddenly revealed a hint of a bright smile, “Hello sir, I am the lobby manager here, and my name is Angel. If you’d like to have fun, then ‘the three cards’ would be a better choice for you.”

“OK, take me there.” Jiang Liushi nodded.

“Please, please this way,” said Angel warmly, then she turned around and glared at that girl.

It was the first time this young man with such a beautiful female companion visited Gold Cave, of course, he would love to show off his wealth. Actually, their most popular customers were just like Jiang Liushi; inexperienced ‘young children’ with a beautiful companion.

Angel attentively brought Jiang Liushi to a long table.

Not too many people were playing ‘three cards’. Four or five individuals were sitting on the long table, and a dealer was responsible for dealing.

When they came, these people were in the middle of a game, so Jiang Liushi looked for a moment and almost understood the rules. The so-called ‘three cards’, was also called HD by some ordinary people.

“Have you ever played card?” Jiang Liushi asked Ran Xiyu.

Ran Xiyu shook her head, “No, Jiang brother.”

“It doesn’t matter. When we win, I’ll buy whatever you want.” Jiang Liushi said.

Ran Xiyu could not help but smile because she did not expect Jiang Liushi’s acting skills were so good. But Angel also could not help but reveal a trace of smile because she thought her judgment was right; Jiang Liushi was indeed a player.

Angel glanced at Jiang Liushi, and she was sure that he had been attracted by this game.

“F*ck, I lost again.” A big fat man threw the card in his hand, leaving a dozen food stamps before storming out.

“Do you want to play?” Angel smiled and asked.

Jiang Liushi nodded, and then he sat down with Ran Xiyu.

The dealer was wearing a grayish dress, it looked like a layer of mist was looming over her white skin. Although she didn’t look particularly beautiful, her eyes were quite enchanting.

“Let’s try our luck.” Jiang Liushi said.

Ten minutes later…

Jiang Liushi had played a few turns, but it seemed that his luck was really bad.

Angel looked to the side and was sure that this young man had never played cards before. The secret of winning this game lied about the ability to grasp everyone’s psychological changes. At the same time, he or she should be calm and decisive, otherwise, their opponents would easily defeat them. In other words, it was a game of psychological warfare.

However, after losing for several turns, Jiang Liushi was still quite calm with no change in his face.

“Gambling such small amounts is quite boring.” He grabbed lots of food stamps and threw them straight out saying, “Raise! 1000.”

“So big?” Someone directly shook his head at the table. In fact, most people couldn’t afford to gamble. After all, all the money was earned by themselves. However, it seemed that the wealthy Jiang Liushi spoke louder than others. Although some people had left, others still stayed.
