what?
Grina paused for a moment, just as she was about to throw the card to the nearest MCX.
When she looked up, both MCX and Lightning gave her a wink, as if they had already conspired together.
M16 said in a deep voice again: "Send it to Lightning. We can communicate with the cloud map. Give her three big cards, and leave the rest to us. Don't worry. If anyone causes trouble, all the Ironblood workers present will protect you."
...Can personal safety be guaranteed? It makes sense, considering that almost the entire Ironblood Factory is located here.
However, we must not be complacent and must do our business work well, at least we must not do anything strange.
Grina threw out a few cards, which landed squarely in front of the Lightning table. Just then, she finally discovered the pattern of the markings. The Griffin players were kind enough not to make the markings too inhumane, such as requiring infrared detection.
Perhaps several cards have already reacted with the alkaline solution on her gloves and turned other colors, but these are only visible to the girls.
Therefore, her dealing motions became much lighter and more natural, allowing each hand of cards to fall into the dealers' hands in the shortest possible time.
"Mondragon, it's time to act."
Grina secretly made a hook with her fingers, and not far away, Mondragon, dressed in a tuxedo, immediately stepped forward and began pouring red wine for each of the wineries.
This is the time for outsiders to spy, but nowadays, it is quite difficult to communicate discreetly to their own people in the arena. However, for the girls, it is as simple as speaking. After all, Yuntu is still beyond the understanding of the other gamblers in the arena, and they can exchange all known information without hindrance.
"The Rothschild brothers have five big cards: the Queen and King of Spades, the Ace of Hearts, and the Jack of Diamonds... The Quinn Group's cornerstone has three big cards: only the Jack. The member with the Ace can play and pass the card to the beak."
This was the information they exchanged in secret. Mondragon could use his position to convey a lot of key information to others, thereby accumulating the highest score to win the bet.
This method has always worked, but this time they're going to target the two powerful family members above them.
This gambling match that night was merely a show of force...
481.1
The dealer taps the table twice, then places the fist-shaped object on the table (no Ace of Spades).
"MCX, activate the hidden blade, take the Ace of Spades. The other two Aces of Spades are in the corner's hand. Lightning will cut off the Aces of Spades later using the hidden blade."
(Hidden badge in cuff)
"Watch out for the dim lights, someone is watching the away team."
Upon hearing the information provided by M16 and Mondragon, Beak secretly glanced to both sides, then threw the King in his hand backwards into the draw pile.
Mondragon happened to be pouring her a drink when he caught sight of her folding her card, and the shock in his eyes almost burst forth.
"Shh, let's play the long game and catch the big fish. It's time to slaughter the pigs. Let's give those insignificant guys a good beating first."
He placed the cards in front of his mouth and took the opportunity to chuckle for a few seconds.
“Hey, I said,” just as the card game was in progress, the Quinn Group’s gang leader suddenly slammed his fist on the table twice, startling the girls.
Exposed?
"Can I smoke? I'm craving it."
......
"Anything without leaves is fine; leaves are not allowed on our territory."
The voice came from behind; it was the executioner, answering on behalf of Grina as a figurehead.
The gang leader had naturally been paying attention to this impressive woman for some time, and then smiled, took out a cigarette from his cigarette case.
"Of course, I don't have the habit of smoking marijuana."
Just as the cigarette was lit, Grina realized...
Oh no, Mondragon isn't in that direction, and nobody noticed if there were any markings under the cigarette pack lid!
These gamblers, who belonged to families, were usually followed by members of their own families. They would only step aside when Mondragon came forward to pour drinks, and since Mondragon wasn't around, he didn't have time to notice whether the guy was cheating.
Furthermore, the area under the cigarette pack lid needs attention, as that happens to be a blind spot for surveillance cameras, or rather, an angle that should be impossible to observe...
It's a small matter if he cheats, but it would be troublesome if they were discovered to be cheating. If he finds something wrong with the pattern of the cards, he might actually discover their intentions.
Nevertheless, he couldn't say it out loud, since he had discovered others cheating through cheating methods.
However, there is no probability in gambling; it's all about who has the better cheating skills.
Thinking this, Grina extended her index finger, pressed it on the dice roller, and then gently swung it to the left twice.
(The player in position number one leaves the stage, a substitution is made, and the measurement officer prepares to enter the stage.)
It's unclear whether the other party is actually cheating, but at least let's stabilize the situation first.
We need to lose this game first, then open up the lanes, push out the number one player, and slowly start setting up our strategy...
Therefore, Beak deliberately discarded all the high-value cards provided by his teammates, and with a series of coordinated moves, "smoothly lost" the bet.
"Oh dear, what bad luck, such bad luck in the very first game."
Faintly dissatisfied, she shrugged and leaned back in her chair, allowing certain individuals to move the chips around her to the cornerstone, the Rothschild brothers, and others.
Then, he pretended to want to leave the table.
“Don’t rush, hahaha,” Joris happily took his chips. “I’ll win it back next time. I’m sitting at this table to find an opportunity to win it all back in one go. And this place is called the Promised Land, what a great name.”
"Tsk, alright, let's try again..."
She pursed her lips, crossed her legs again, and showed off her perfect curves under the bodycon skirt.
Haha, it is indeed a good name. The Promised Land. Because of his piety towards God, Abraham, the ancestor of the Israelites, made a covenant with God, promising his descendants a land flowing with milk and honey.
Myths are just myths, like this casino, ultimately a trap. God's vows will never be fulfilled, and the milk and honey reward for those who come will remain a long way off.
In the end, let's see whose promised land this really is...
In the second shuffle, the cards were shuffled back to the original measured order using card-collecting and restoration techniques. Meanwhile, the player in position number one left the game due to a complete loss, and the statistician personally participated in the gambling.
"If we give this big hand to the Measurement Officer, she'll find an opportunity to cut out the two jokers with Lightning and the others, and then MCX will take them back."
Big cards... The King is for the statute officer, tsk, although there are three decks of cards, there's still only one pair of Kings and Queens, so this hand can't be cut.
Grina tapped the table three times and then sighed.
(Because someone is watching us, ACE can't be given to our own people, so it can only be distributed randomly.)
It's certain that surveillance will be carried out. Every important figure involved in the game will have a hidden spot around them to prevent anyone other than themselves from cheating. And if the ace doesn't reach three hands with the deck, it becomes a skill to reasonably give all the ace to one's own people.
"Grina, just play normally. All the aces are for our own people. There's no need to worry about other people's situations. We'll be there if anything happens."
"In this round, give the lowest card to the Rothschild brothers."
......
Following M16's instructions, Grinna shuffled the cards back to their original order and handed the two Jokers to MCX and the Measuring Officer, respectively.
That should make things simpler...
The smallest cards, 2 to 9 of each suit... four cards, maybe even fewer.
......
After receiving the card, MCX began to examine it carefully.
"I have the King, two Jacks of Spades and Diamonds, the Judge has the Joker, the Beak has the King of Hearts and two Queens of Diamonds, and the remaining Lightning is basically all low cards, so..."
What about Mondragón's away hand? What's the distribution of cards?
The person in question happened to walk past MCX, but she shook her head at MCX and then walked straight to the metrologist's side.
"He didn't drink any of the wine, perhaps because he didn't intend for me to pour him any more."
Okay, it seems we can only deduce based on the subsequent discards. Nearly half of the high-ranking cards are in our hands. We just need to draw back the high-ranking cards we've placed beforehand based on the color changes of the cards, and then find an opportunity to cut the Ace into our hands...
"Away points, 8 points~"
After checking the dice roll, Grina announced the numbers to the gamblers in the room.
A smaller one is fine...
The time has come to cooperate.
"Please begin folding at home."
Hurry up, Beak, it's time to give out the cards!
What's the rush! Two important figures are watching us closely with their lights on; I need to think this over.
It seems that they lost badly in the first wave, which made them the target of their attention.
That's normal. Away teams are always wary of whether the home team is deliberately losing to lure in bigger fish.
Almost all of their high-ranking cards were discarded in the first hand, which seems to have caught their attention, making the situation a little troublesome...
P.S.: Let me promote the group again: 751214314
483 made a move
Seeing that the time was ripe, and under the premise that everyone outside the venue would think it was reasonable, he took the opportunity to throw out his big card.
Here's your chance!
MCX discarded all his small cards and then retrieved them with the help of a central shuffler.
"ah!"
He revealed the card, feigning shock: "The Royal Backyard."
Tsk, sigh...
Lightning immediately realized what was happening and announced the end of the game to everyone with an extremely mournful sigh.
It must be said that the two actors' performances were perfectly coordinated. When the woman saw MCX reveal several Queens and a combination of single Kings and multiple Jacks, she even seemed disdainful. But if this woman reacted this way, it meant that the Kings and Queens on the table were not in anyone's hands...
Damn, that means this pink-haired girl made the right bet. Nobody has the King and Queen, so she has already formed the best possible combination.
Damn it, I bet big on this!
"Hey, you're lucky! You got a bunch of Qs. Next time, you should try getting a couple of opium pipes."
Without any staff intervention, MCX cheekily snatched the chips from the other side's table.
"Tsk, you've already gone all out, how about going even bigger next time?!"
He shouted.
“Call!” MCX tossed a black chip and caught it steadily with his fingertips: “Of course I’ll call. There’s no reason to run away after winning money.”
The fish has taken the bait; this is the moment he's been waiting for, after all, he almost "won."
M16 had been monitoring everyone's hand using the surveillance camera. If he had drawn the first card earlier, he would have actually won.
Unfortunately, this is an MCX game, and she had already planned it out.
But since M16 can see everyone's cards, why not just use the cloud map to inform the girls on the field?
In MCX's words, "Cheating is one of the joys of playing cards. Cheating techniques are also card skills, which require both luck and skill. That's why this dangerous game with the devil is so alluring."
The third round is about to begin. Grina switches to a gripping position with three fingers and slowly pulls them upwards (Should I increase the bet again this round and crush him?).
"Yeah, MCX said to just go for it and let him go."
The sound of M16 rang out again, and looking in that direction, the pink-haired gambler at the table had revealed a determined smile.
It's faster than expected, but that's okay.
......
In the following rounds, MCX gradually increased the betting amount, tying the opponent's dignity to the betting amount, thus driving up the stakes. As for the two brothers, they were not the girls' target; they were merely appendages in the process of fleecing this big fat sheep.
"Damn it, I lost all night!"
Joris slammed his fist on the table in anger, sending some cigarette ash onto the gambling table.
The girls were all pretending to be annoyed by losing money, but MCX was still beaming with pride.
"Don't tell me, you won a few rounds, didn't you? But you ended up losing everything in the end."
Just like fishing, once a fish bites the hook, you can't reel in the line too tightly. You have to keep the line moving in and out, slowly wearing down the fish's energy.
Now we've caught the fish, but it looks rather fierce...
"You got two straight flushes in a row at the end, and you dare say there's nothing wrong with that?! I've been sitting at the gambling table for so many years, and even with this kind of new gambling method, there's no way this could happen!"
"Maybe I'm just lucky? You're not really getting angry, are you?"
"I'm in a hurry for you!"
