"boom!"

The heavy card table was lifted by the man, the cards were flying all over the sky, and the brilliant gold coins were scattered all over the ground with a tinkling clang.

The atmosphere in the casino was quiet for a moment because of the sudden movement, only the sound of people breathing could be heard for a while, but then the noise sounded again, and the atmosphere in the casino was still lively, as if the previous pause was just a kind of non-existent illusion.

A group of people who watched the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal gradually gathered around the card table, completely blocking the way to leave.

"What happened?"

"Ah... that pirate..."

"What? What? Is it going to start again?"

One by one, they couldn't see the panic and worry that ordinary people should have about the chaos. On the contrary, they were discussing in whispers, and their faces were full of excitement and enthusiasm that they were about to eat melons.

Li Guanqi: "..."

Apparently this isn't the first time something like this has happened here.

With a casual attitude, Li Guanqi looked at the expressions on the faces of the people around him, thinking that all the troublemakers in the world are just ordinary black people, and the whole hall is full of people, but they can't come up with one that can help her, a weakling. The heart of justice for students to sneak into the police.

Tsk tsk tsk... What a downturn in the world, what kind of old people's hearts, and how cold the world is.

As the saying goes, if you see someone being bullied and don't help, then you are an accomplice.

Li Guanqi does not dare to compliment the character of these "good people", even though she has long understood that good people are like this, but when the facts are in front of her, she still sincerely feels that there is still a bottom line and a lower limit for being a human being That's good.

Looking away as if nothing had happened, Li Guanqi looked at the still angry man in front of him again, and sighed silently in his heart.

Alas... Right now, this is also a lack of great virtue.

"You cheat!!"

The man roared, his face was flushed, his eyes were bloodshot, full of the anger of a gambler who became angry because of losing cards.

"Do you think you've won these gold pieces? No! You vile outcast! Filthy poor! I'll kill you! To make you pay for your deeds!"

"You can't just rely on your words to wrong someone, let alone you say I cheated, but you have no evidence."

In the face of the man's questioning and anger, Li Guanqi sat on the chair as firmly as Mount Tai and smiled politely. Even if the man standing across from him flashed his knife out of embarrassment, he still had an indifferent expression of "That's it?"

"I'm willing to bet, sir." Li Guanqi waved his hand, like a puppy, and asked the casino waiter to come over and collect the gold coins on the ground and put them in bags, "This is an unchanging rule in the casino."

"...I didn't lose!"

The man looked at Li Guanqi in a trance, although he was still angry at the fact that he was cheated instead of being cheated, but at the same time he was vigilant.

After all, the person who can kill the admiral's wife and children and get out of the way is definitely not a brainless idiot.

Although the man was targeted by the navy because of this, he abandoned his identity as a pirate and became depressed, but his murderous and sadistic nature did not change because of this.

And the casino was a geomantic treasure he found after escaping from the sea.

Born with a villainous face, coupled with a tall and burly figure, it is possible for a man to show off his power and domineeringly in the casinos of various small countries by virtue of his force value, which is not even ranked high on the great route.

According to past experience, whenever he sneered and showed a fierce look on his face, the most common thing he saw was people's pale faces, showing panic and fearful expressions.

But no matter what, it shouldn't be like Li Guanqi's calm appearance like Li Guanqi who doesn't enter into oil and salt, doesn't realize the imminent disaster, and can even talk to you with a smile.

The guy's reaction is not normal.

Speaking of which, when I entered the casino before...

This guy didn't hesitate at all, and came straight towards him... Damn, could it be a scam?
Thinking of this, the man was a little apprehensive, so facing Li Guanqi's confident attitude, he subconsciously softened his tone, subconsciously subdued his anger, "...it doesn't make sense at all. It is impossible for me to lose everything to you !"

"Haha, you are so funny. Gambling is unreasonable, sir." Li Guanqi shook his head and said with a smile, "What's more, I'm very lucky today."

"Lucky enough to win all my gold coins with two gold coins?! That's a full 150 gold coins, kid!" the man said through gritted teeth, with a ferocious look on his face, "I don't believe you will be so good life!"

Yes, I think so too, Li Guanqi nodded, agreeing with the man.As soon as three were released, three more were exploded, what a fate.

"It is because of good luck that we can win money."

Lazily throwing back the three [A] cards in his hand, Li Guanqi shrugged, "Besides, I didn't really just use two gold coins to win your money, sir."

man:"…………"

"Two arms, two legs, and a pair of eyes."

Li Guanqi stood up from the chair, opened his hands, and slowly turned around as if displaying goods, then sat back on the chair again, straightened his back, and nodded politely and reservedly to the man , "This is a bargaining chip that you personally choose and agree with, sir."

"...But you cheated, you cheated!" The man stared into Li Guanqi's eyes and raised his voice, "It doesn't count at all."

"No counting? But in this gamble, you pick the chips, you decide the game, the cards are newly picked, and even the right to shuffle the cards is always firmly in your hands. If this You can’t do the math, so how can you count it? Do you bet until you win?”

Li Guanqi spread his hands, his face full of helplessness, his expression of "I'm easy to talk, but can you really be unreasonable like a child" is extra hooligan in such an occasion.

"If you really want to think so, the slaughterhouse can satisfy your requirements better than the casino. Not only that, sir, it may even give you money there, why do you come here to make fun of it?"

The crowd around burst into laughter because of this humorous description, and this made the man with good face so annoyed that he yelled—"You are the one who issued the card!!"

"It's not justified, sir, and it doesn't prove anything."

Li Guanqi almost laughed out loud because of the man's exasperated appearance, so he cleared his throat tactically, forcibly maintained a calm appearance, and continued, "Since you think I'm cheating, you can catch him on the spot, you can now Empty words, to put it bluntly, this is slander."

"Slander? I slander you? How is that possible?!"

The man really wanted to fight, but Li Guanqi's fearless attitude made him sure that there must be fraud in it, and if he really wanted to do it, he might end up falling for this kid and ruining his own life.

Wait... my life?
Why did he feel that this bean sprouts that didn't look like an adult would threaten his life?
Cold sweat unknowingly climbed up the man's forehead. Although his subconscious mind told him that admitting defeat was the best choice at this time, his habit of committing crimes all the year round made him feel annoyed by Li Guanqi's attitude.

"What nonsense are you kidding?!"

"Okay, then just treat me as nonsense." Li Guanqi nodded indifferently, and continued to ask kindly, "Then what do you want to do, sir? Return the gold coins and start over again." Bet?"

"...Okay! Let's do it like this!" The man was silent for a moment, and then he agreed with a grim expression, "Return the gold coins to me, and we will gamble again!"

The crowd began to commotion. After all, the man's behavior was so rascal that even those who watched the excitement despised the man's behavior.

However, even so, no one stood up to accuse the man of rascal behavior.

After all, the matter has nothing to do with their own arrogance, and no matter how much they despise men's behavior, they will not be able to become the kind of heroes who will draw their swords to help when they see injustice.

Yes, it's just a group of gamblers who don't think it's a big deal to watch the excitement.

"...You are really shameless." Li Guanqi paused and smiled, "Okay, let's do this, but I don't have that much time, so let's go crazy, Stud (Note: Showhand, meaning all-in )Bar."

"Then it's the same for you...not just gold coins! Including your two arms, two legs, and your eyes! You have to bet them all together!"

Li Guanqi: "..."

Good guy, it's really climbing up with a pole!

Li Guanqi was not surprised by the man's behavior, after all he was a sixth child with low morals and zero credit, it was normal to do any kind of thing.

It's just annoying.

Like a fucking wild dog, staring at her hands, her legs, and her eyes, all with the intention of killing her, trying to bite her to death!

No grievances, no enmity... how outrageous isn't it?
Li Guanqi was really angry about this. Although she still maintained a smile on the surface, an emotion called anger began to boil and burn in her blood, like a shell. Her mind was on a rampage.

After all, there is a saying from our ancestors that is good - people don't offend me, I don't offend others, if people offend me, then kill him!

Hiss, famous quotes!How well said!Li Guanqi almost wanted to applaud.

"Sure, stud after all! You shuttle and I shuttle, we have a lot of fun together!" Li Guanqi nodded slightly, she still maintained her smile, as if wearing a mask that could only smile, "But the same Yes, you have to bet on your hands, feet, and eyes, otherwise it would be unfair to me, you know, I have been accommodating you from the beginning, sir."

man:"…………"

The man was silent, his face fluctuating, he thought for a long time, hesitating whether he should just give up, willing to admit defeat, and then leave.

But after thinking about it for a long time, in the end, his greed for money and his desire to torture and kill the weak prevailed.

"Bet!"

"Okay, then, before the game is officially established, I will ask you one last time, have you really considered it, sir."

Li Guanqi asked again as if he was sure.After all, the rabbits of flower growers are gentle and kind-hearted, but before they do anything serious, they should give people a chance to rein in their horses from the precipice, to show politeness, and to leave basic decency and dignity.

"It's too late to regret it now."

As Li Guanqi said so, she put away the smile that was always on her face, and looked at the man expressionlessly, her black and white eyes shone with a strange light like a dead fish.

It's not scary, but it's definitely not comfortable either... inexplicably creepy.

"You know, don't say it's unpredictable."

[And if the other side is not decent——]

"...Don't f*cking haggle, kid!"

The man shivered, but he still didn't believe that the bean sprouts in front of him could make a big wave, but he was instinctively annoyed by his retreat, eyes red, took a deep breath, and growled, "You're going to die!"

[Then let's help him face up. 】

Li Guanqi: "..."

Li Guanqi smiled: "Okay."

Oh shit.

Die.

Apologies are useless.

You prepare the coffin board!
