my old life

Chapter 120 The New Gambler
At six o'clock in the evening, the sky was dark and gloomy. I stood on the poop deck smoking a cigarette. I don't know why, but the sky has been cloudy everywhere I've been lately.

The slight river breeze is very comfortable on the body. The most relaxing time of the day is the rest time at [-] o'clock in the evening. You can leave the cabin to breathe fresh air, and you can also look at the distant city.

I took a few photos and sent them to Seventeenth Sister. Check her news, see what good food I ate, or what beautiful clothes I bought, and my mood will improve a lot.

Every time I watch Sister Seventeen’s news, I can always see the shadows of other people. A group of girls often get together to eat and go shopping. To be honest, I am quite envious, but when I see Sister Sixteen, I can always feel her eyes very lonely.

Since I promised Miss Sixteen to attend her birthday party last time, there has been no movement. I don’t know if she has called me, but the phone number has been changed, and I don’t know how to explain it to her.

In fact, many things cannot be explained, and we can only make up excuses to prevaricate, but to be honest, I don't want to lie and deceive people, especially girls.

My second uncle said before that don't deceive people easily, because the people you can deceive are those who are willing to believe in you...

Soon the outline of a city appeared in front of me, and I saw a huge tower crane at the pier. It seemed that the gambling boat was about to stop. Could it be the end of it when it arrived here?

The gambling boat is docked at a pier. There are gamblers disembarking on the boat, but there are more people waiting to get on the boat. I thought that the boat would not dock halfway, but I heard from others that going down the river is different from going up the river. .

Gambling boats going down the river can reach the place in a day and night, and they will not stop and dock on the way. The speed of the boat going up the river is slower, and they will also stop at the pier halfway, so that the lost gamblers will disembark and add some new gamblers.

People who gamble on a gambling boat are different from others. If they lose all their money, they can’t go back to get it back. They can only stare blankly on the boat or choose to swipe their cards. However, adding new gamblers can bring greater profits.

Such a huge ship, let alone how much it costs to refit, just the oil that needs to be burned every time the ship is sailed, so many salaried people on board, and Jin Ye who wants to make money, all of these come from the gamblers ?
Perhaps in this world, only those who gamble will become blind and participate in the high consumption of gambling, but there are many people who do not seem to be rich...

My second uncle said before that gambling demons will make people blind. Sometimes they know that it is a dead end, but gambling makes people have no way out, so they can only gamble without hesitation...

Among the group of new gamblers, there is a special person, in his 30s, wearing shirts and leather shoes, dressed very seriously, except for a strand of white hair, followed by a beautiful woman in a black skirt, and behind him are five or six people who are full of evil spirits youth.

The one who can take girls and younger brothers when going out, looks like a good one, the beauty next to her is wearing a black hat, she looks a lot like a certain celebrity...

Aunt Hua greeted these people as soon as they boarded the boat, and greeted them warmly. They were clearly distinguished from other gamblers. Maybe they felt that I was staring at him. The man looked over from a distance, with a smile on his face. Evil.

Generally, people in the rivers and lakes have money, and it is not uncommon to play on a gambling boat, and they will not feel bad if they lose some money...

I lay on the railing and smoked a cigarette, looking at the city not far away, and I could even see the shops on the street and the cars on the road.

Empty your mind and yourself, feel the gentle river breeze at this moment, and enjoy the rare rest time. Once you sail, you have to blow the air conditioner in the cabin, which makes your whole body sore.

Suddenly, I felt someone approaching. Looking back, it was the young croupier wearing black-rimmed glasses. He looked like he was in his 20s. As soon as he appeared, I knew what was going on.

"Hey, it's quite leisurely to blow hair here by myself." He came over as if nothing had happened, took out two packs of soft Chinese from his body and handed them to me, I was slightly taken aback.

"The guest gave it to you. I don't smoke and I give it to you." He said it easily, but I felt that his expression was a little nervous, but he was very well disguised, and it was almost invisible.

"Thanks." I took it and lit a cigarette, knowing in my heart what he wanted to do, it was nothing more than to test my tone, to make sure I had seen through his cheating.

In fact, I think he is a bit superfluous, he didn't even see the bright lights and dark lights on the gambling boat, why is he worried that I will see it, and he can cheat in front of Qian Xinyun and Fox, I guess he must not First time doing this.

"Seeing that you have just come to work, let me make friends. My name is Wang Wenjie."

"Okay, my name is... Shackles." After thinking about it, I still said the name Shackles. The gambling boat is different from the outside world, everything is different.

"Shackles? It's a strange name, but it sounds cool! By the way, do you also like to play Jinhua?"

As soon as I heard this, I knew in my heart that he couldn't help but want to test me. I shrugged and said, "It's okay. Actually, I don't know how to play very much, but watching others gamble is very enjoyable."

"Oh? You really don't know how to play?" He looked at me in disbelief, and I nodded to show that it was true. In fact, I wanted to reassure him. Mind your own business.

"I see you've been watching it all the time, thinking you like to play."

He was obviously relieved, patted my shoulder and left with a smile, but the feeling was obviously different from when he came. Before leaving, he looked at me with contempt, and I couldn't figure out why he was like this.

Could it be that after I'm sure I didn't see through him, there will be hatred in my heart instead?Or was it the look I gave him that made him feel scared?How could he be angry if he wasn't afraid?
Go back to the boat gambling hall at seven o'clock and continue to work. The gamblers are different but the atmosphere is the same. It is almost the same every day. Occasionally, I can meet a few long, beautifully dressed and charming gamblers, secretly enjoying the eye addiction.

In the rest area next to the boat gambling hall, I saw Qian Xinyun and Hu Lizi were there, and Jin Ye was also there. I don't know what they were talking about, but their eyes were always looking towards the hall.

I found that they were all looking at Wang Wenjie. He was doing something, and he didn't notice that Jin Ye and others were looking at him.

I thought to myself that this kid is bold enough to collude with people to cheat secretly, no matter where he eats inside and out, the inside ghost is the most hated.

Coincidentally, that middle-aged man with a wisp of white hair was sitting at that table. Could it be that these people are masters hired by Master Jin?
But it doesn't feel like it. Generally, the masters who watch the game are very low-key, try not to attract people's attention, and will pretend to be ordinary gamblers to watch. It is really rare to see people sitting down with such a swagger. They should really come to gamble.

Qian Xinyun beckoned to me to go over, I walked over bravely, the last thing I wanted was to face Qian Xinyun and the fox at the same time, God knows if they would treat me as a punching bag.

However, they are much more at ease with Mr. Jin present. Mr. Jin looked at me with a smile and asked slowly, "How is it? Are you still used to working here?"

"Well, it's okay." I nodded to show that it's okay, I only have anger and hatred in my heart, no matter how polite he is to me, it can't change the fact that he threatened the second uncle.

"That's good, work hard here, and Xiong Jiudong will come to see you in a few days." Master Jin waved his hand with a smile, and I prepared to leave tactfully.

Before I left, I saw Aunt Hua walking over quickly, and said with a smile: "Master Jin, Maobai brought people over to play today, and I want Sister Mi to come and play with me after roll call."

The fox obviously frowned, but Master Jin nodded as if nothing had happened, and said meaningfully: "Go, don't let him play tricks, let Xinyun go over together, there may be a problem with this table."

One sentence made me nervous. I don't know if Lord Jin has discovered something, but he hasn't done anything to Wang Wenjie yet, so I'm afraid there is no definite evidence yet.

"Don't worry, Mr. Jin, I will definitely catch him tonight!"

"It must be our people who caught it first!"

Qian Xinyun and Hulizi began to compete secretly again, Jin Ye stood up and said in a low voice: "If there is someone who wins easily at this table next time, grab it and ask carefully to find out what's tricky inside."

"Understood." Qian Xinyun and Hulizi agreed at the same time, their eyes looked at me at the same time, I hurriedly lowered my head and ran away.

I knew that the people on the gambling boat were not fools, and Mr. Jin was not a fool if he was able to survive until today. A not-so-smart game can be fooled once, but it is impossible to hide it many times.

Even if the position of the wounded flower is changed, it will not be such a coincidence. I think Master Jin should start to doubt Wang Wenjie. I am afraid that he will definitely test him on purpose tonight...

Wait, does a ruthless person like Jin Ye need evidence to do things?
