Mystery: Lucky One

Chapter 189 Chapter 63 Double happiness!

The two mice that were regarded as targets ran away separately, while the black and white dog retracted its paws in pain due to excessive force.

It seemed to be very painful... Alice felt a little regretful for her behavior just now. She regretted that she had done that.

It was at this time that the experienced black dog jumped up suddenly, but this time, its target was not the mouse, but its opponent.

The trajectory of its attack made Alice's pupils constrict, and she gave it another dose of misfortune without thinking.

Then the strong black dog's front legs cramped, and it changed from attacking to rolling on the ground.

But its hostility was discovered by another black and white dog. It turned to the black dog, its silly eyes also became fierce, its body was slightly arched, its claws dug into the ground, and it bared its teeth and let out a threatening growl.

This game of dog and mouse finally turned into a duel between two dogs under Alice's instigation.

Those gamblers didn't realize the seriousness of the matter. Under the call of the most excited gambler before, they became enthusiastic again: "Go ahead! Tear it up!"

The two dogs seemed to be affected by this atmosphere. They pounced on each other and struggled with each other. You gave me a paw and I bit you. They were inseparable.

Alice thought for a while, moved to the bar, and leaned on the bar to watch the two dogs fighting.

Although there is not much difference in size and strength, the black dog is obviously more experienced, more ferocious, and more explosive than the other one.

But unfortunately, it carried more bad luck, which made the battle go very unsmoothly. There was basically a draw between the two dogs.

The mice squeaked and fled away from the center of the cage, leaving the battlefield to the two dogs.

The evenly matched battle initially attracted Alice's interest, but soon she felt that this scene was not dramatic enough.

She thought for a while and began to act like a water master who swayed left and right but refused to spill the water in this battle.

As a result, the gamblers' moods followed the bowl of water. Until the water was poured out, everyone's suspense finally died - the two dogs on the stage were dead or not. It's hard to say, but they probably couldn't get up to catch the mice. .

In this dog-and-mouse game, the number of mice caught by both dogs is 0.

What a wonderful number, Alice happily admired the expressions of every gambler after they failed.

Some were devastated, some were shocked, some were clamoring for their money back, and...hey, why is he laughing?

Alice frowned and looked at the gambler who had always had the most agitated attitude.

He happily got back his gambling capital and the money he won... Oh, no wonder, it turned out that he bet 0!
"It's Warren again..." "How lucky. How many times has he won?" "I don't know, it's like he was kissed by the goddess of luck. He's so lucky..." "Yeah, so lucky..." Lucky..."

The comments came one after another, some were envious or jealous, and some were regretting not following him in betting.

From the exchanges of people around her, Alice understood that this gambler named Warren came here for the first time today and made several bets, all of which were big wins.

Everyone wanted to bet with him, but this time the result of his bet was too biased - he actually bet that neither dog could catch a mouse. So in the Brave Man Bar where gambling was not popular, the gamblers hesitated for a moment and decided to bet again. give up.

Alice looked at Warren's face which was blushing even more because of winning money, but her brows furrowed little by little.

But why... is he dying?
Alice watched him excitedly count the money in his hand over and over again, and collapsed when he counted it for the third time.

Then, the scene instantly became chaotic.

It seems that this kind of situation is not uncommon in the bar. The person in charge soon appeared, took care of the scene, and calmed the guests. After a while, as a new game of dog and mouse began, the scene that had cooled down became lively again, and there were only a few occasional comments about Warren.

"What a bad luck..." "Yeah..."

Alice thought for a while, moved to the bartender, stuck her head in and asked, "Hey, do you know about that Warren thing?"

Alice felt that she should push some money out at this time, but it was the first time she did this kind of thing, and she had no idea how much money she should give, not to mention she didn't bring much money in total...

Alice, who had been doing hundreds of thousands of pounds of transactions in tarot meetings for a long time, touched the 5 sole note in her pocket and thought.

The bartender looked at Alice and laughed: "Is that you?"

Alice asked blankly: "Do you recognize me?"

"I'm impressed by you," the bartender explained. "After all, it's rare that a... well, such a girl like you comes to a businessman."

Alice tilted her head and understood what the bartender meant from his words. She did not comment on the bartender's words, but asked tentatively: "So Warren..."

The bartender rolled out a drink price list.

Alice lowered her head and browsed it carefully from beginning to end, and finally raised her head and said: "Minors are not allowed to drink."

These words made the bartender silent for a moment, and then he knowingly pushed out a glass of orange juice and asked with a complicated expression: "...Do the adults in your family care about you?"

Alice blinked twice and replied truthfully: "I am the only one in my family."

The bartender fell silent again. After a while, he changed the subject: "That Warren was kicked out by the people from the Oceani Tavern two days ago."

"Why?" Alice asked doubtfully.

The bartender chuckled and said, "Because he seemed to have been kissed by Lady Luck suddenly. He has been winning since three or four days ago."

Alice was slightly startled.

"Who didn't envy his luck at that time? But now..." The bartender smiled and shook his head.

Alice took a sip of orange juice, and then asked doubtfully: "Did he have bad luck before?"

The bartender shook his head and said: "How many gamblers are always lucky? It's not always like that. Occasionally, you win, and then you invest more money, and lose all your money."

Alice lowered her head thoughtfully and thought for a moment, then raised her head and asked, "Are you sabotaging business like this?"

The bartender looked at her and replied, "Underage people can't gamble."

Alice opened her mouth slightly, then closed it again, and changed the subject: "For a gambler like Warren, the best ending should be to get rich or die, right?"

"Although he will most likely use the money to gamble when he gets rich...but you can't be wrong." The bartender spread his hands.

Alice frowned and asked in confusion: "Then...since two good endings appeared at the same time, why do you say he is unlucky?"
