The Voyage of Exchange——Chapter 53: Upstart

Sofia's words are indeed very clever, but Nina will think as long as she is alive, and she will suffer while she is still thinking.

It's not so much an encouragement, but Sofia's words are just to keep moving forward. Even if I get some comfort now, I will feel empty in the future.

"So, don't be entangled. If you are still entangled, just listen to me and just do what you are doing now."

"If you still have any questions or ideas, come to me. I will always be by your side. So you can no longer give up on yourself and think wildly. You cannot bear all this alone. If you are struggling or hesitating again,

If you stop moving forward, I will give you a push and you can just keep moving forward. If anything happens, Alexander and I will take care of it for you."

At the moment she finished speaking, Sophia seemed to understand that assuming no one distorted Nina's concept, Nina became the most important existence in her life and everything she could entrust to her instead of dedicating all gratitude to God.

In other words, only by having the awareness to trample on Nina's will can we truly rescue Nina from the abyss of thinking and self-abuse and the still extremely heavy guilt.

But this conversation has ended here.

The children in the slums came to Nina's side as if they had seen a savior. Nina put on a fake smile and checked the homework she had set. She was teaching how to survive in the gray triangle area, not

Simply bring grace.

Nina did not respond to Sophia, and Sophia didn't know why Nina knew so much knowledge needed to survive in the gray area. For a paladin who believed in the God of Holy Glory, all this was too cruel.

[Have you done so much in just two days? It seems that Nina has experienced a lot more than I thought.] Sofia sighed secretly in her heart and stayed quietly next to Nina, watching her activities and helping her from time to time.

Be busy for a while.

After wandering around for a long time, Ryan walked to the entrance of a casino. This casino looked much more grand than the Snow Dog Casino, and most of the people coming in and out were rich people and their families.

Originally, Ryan just glanced at it, but there was a flash of red inside, which must be someone moving at super high speed, which made people concerned. He was not too interested in the casino, but he still hurriedly followed in.

"This guest, in such a hurry, how many chips do you plan to exchange for?" A two-meter-tall strong man blocked Ryan from the shadows and ignored the exchange port because he had never been to a casino.

Ryan paused and asked about the exchange price of chips here... one chip per Lindsay.

Ryan quickly changed thirty chips and walked into the corridor of the casino and walked inside.

There are only twenty gambling tables inside. Generally speaking, it is ideal to have just enough seats. However, there are not many people in this casino, and there are no people in red clothes.

Maybe it was because of the morning, but there were only four tables open now. Ryan looked at the people sitting there in different attires.

One of the dice tables has two gamblers, there are two tables where a person is playing black and red cards alone with the dealer, and the last table is where a few people are lying comfortably on the sofa and watching the battle flag type of spell circuit projection.

game.

Ryan thought that many of the walls decorated with hanging paintings could be set up with secret doors, but this made no sense. Seeing that there was no red-haired person on the gaming table, Ryan was a little disappointed, but thought that person might be nearby.

Ryan showed great interest in gambling. He first looked at the gambling situation of the first three tables. He also walked around twice, pretending to watch the situation at each gambling table, but actually trying to find the person in red.

people, or there is some passage leading to other places.

It is really not appropriate to wander around in a casino with only four tables. The eyes of the gamblers and dealers seemed to contain sarcasm and impatience. It could be seen at a glance that Ryan did not intend to play, especially with the money in his hands.

None of them were holding a box of chips.

These rich people may be pursuing the excitement of spending a lot of money and not playing seriously. In other words, in this case, relying on the chips in his hand, Ryan has a good chance of winning. Not to mention the dice that rely on luck, black and red cards require strategy

of.

But Ryan didn't have much interest in cards, so he simply sat on the dice table and played two games, hoping to get some clues about the man in red.

This table requires at least ten chips at a time. The gameplay is to bet on odd and even, big and small, and leopard. For example, if you guess odd and even, you can get double the chips you bet. If you guess odd and triple the big, if you guess leopard, it will be four times. If you guess correctly, you will get double the bet.

The leopard plus the odd sum is five times. The leopard plus the odd sum is six times.

Ryan was wearing the clothes he had bought at the Gold Cave before. He behaved like a lazy aristocrat and slowly walked to the first dice table. He pulled out a chair gracefully and sat on it. He was ready.

Let’s play a little to warm up first.

Two gamblers threw dice with fifty and sixty chips respectively. One bet on the leopard and the other on the double jackpot. One of them was a male, with his belly exposed, gold teeth inlaid, and eight gold rings on his hands. Look.

Look like a nouveau riche.

The other one is a woman, wearing a black veil, moving the chips with her fingers and holding her chin in a very elegant manner.

Ryan made up his mind to bet on doubles and took out ten chips and put them over. The final points were one, six, and two, and the total was nine. However, the colorful chips in front of the three people were taken away by the dealer, and no one won this round.

The woman in black gauze sneered lightly, while the upstart sneered. "It hurts, isn't it bad to bet on a simple matter of size?"

Later, the nouveau riche bet on the leopard again, while the woman in black gauze changed her name to Shan Xiao.

This guy gave a warning, which made him feel disgusted, but it also made Ryan feel that it seemed that the smaller size was more suitable. He frowned, then looked at the woman in black veil, trying to see clearly the face under the veil. Then he took out again

Ten chips, a big bet.

Of course, Ryan's sight could not penetrate the black veil, and it was also rude to do so, so he withdrew his gaze in an instant. Then the dice fell four, four, two, big! One lost and the other won, and Ryan got his principal back.

At the same time, two people lost again.

"How do you think about it? My proposal can make everyone profit together." The upstart once again pressed the remaining chips to Leopard, a total of 500 chips.

Ryan was about to see where the girl in black gauze was pressing. The woman in black gauze pressed the 660 chips in front of her towards the leopard pair. "It is also very risky." Her voice was like a silver bell.

Ryan thought for a moment and chose to take out thirty chips and follow the local tycoon's gold push. However, the dealer did not give Ryan time to place his bet, and the numbers came out of the reels as two, five, and six.

So the woman in black veil stood up and walked out of the casino with steps as graceful as a cat. The upstart also stood up, not sure whether he was planning to leave the casino or exchange chips. The croupier watched quietly as the two people played dice.

In fact, it was Ryan who was involved in the negotiation.

Ryan watched the upstart's next move to make sure of his move. But the place to exchange chips was the door, unless Ryan followed him to the corridor. He got up, left the casino, and carefully followed the woman in black gauze. At the same time, he used the emblem to check this side

Share the situation with your peers.

Ryan did not use the remaining chips. When he left the casino, he was asked by the staff at the exchange office what to do with the chips. Either return the chips to Lindsay who had only half the original amount, or use them all.

After all, the chips cannot be returned to the same amount of money, and the casino cannot easily let the chips flow out. Of course, they can also be exchanged for vouchers that can be exchanged for some small prizes.

It is precisely because of this problem that the woman in black veil has left the casino. If she doesn't use her strength, she will definitely be lost. But if you are quick with your hands and feet, you can still see the back of the upstart.

In the end, Ryan changed the chips directly into exchange coupons and walked out of the casino. He also tried to use his power to see if he could catch up with the woman in black veil.

He did not see the woman in black gauze in his field of vision, and when he let go of his hearing to endure the headache and tried to find the sound of someone hidden in and out of sight, he failed. After leaving a certain range, I am afraid that only Carlin's hearing can perform this level of work.

positioning.

But judging from the pace of the woman in black veil, she must have used some kind of supernatural power to leave. At this time, a carriage came. The upstart grabbed the door frame of the side door of the carriage and got into the carriage, and then the carriage sped away.

.People also avoided the carriage’s path one after another.

Since the other party was leaving in the direction of the lower city, Ryan probably crossed the bridge to the west bank of the upper city on the opposite side. He also made sure to move quickly towards the west bank of the upper city without attracting too many people's attention.

Ryan ran toward the west bank at twice the normal running pace. This was the only way to avoid attracting too many people's attention.

But even so, it cannot catch up with the speed of the carriage. Obviously in a big city with a large population base, the fact that the carriage can maintain this speed without disturbing or even injuring pedestrians proves that people have accepted this situation. Therefore.

There is no doubt that by the time Ryan could see the bridge, the carriage had already crossed the bridge and moved from the east bank to the west bank, which also meant that it was undoubtedly lost.

The pursuit based on the idea that the carriage would slow down was wrong from the beginning. So Ryan quickly went to the place where he last saw the carriage and looked around to see if there were any beggars or civilians around to see if he could ask questions from them.

The direction the carriage is going.

But it's a pity that the pedestrians near the Shuangkong Bridge are all in a hurry. Although it seems that you can make a lot of money by begging here, in the city of Se'an, no matter how poor or even disabled and unable to work, people will still support each other.

live passionately

Uptown and downtown are the dividing line between rich and poor, especially near the bridge. Lane was a little annoyed when he lost the woman in black veil and the rich man one after another. He felt his own shortcomings. If he could learn some investigation skills

Maybe he won't be so passive.
