Chapter 87 Guessing the seeds on the street

"Are you going out?" Rebecca asked.

"Yes!" Mo Zhi nodded: "The captain gave me a task."

The tasks between the Punishers are confidential and reported in a single line... Rebecca was very experienced and did not ask any more questions. She waved her hand to the unpredictable and turned back to the office:

"be safe!"

After leaving the door of the Supervisory Office, Mo Mei took a breath of the sweet air of freedom and felt very good.

In addition to field work, I just sit in the office and read newspapers, drink tea, and tease Carlisle... This kind of life in a state-owned enterprise that I looked forward to in my previous life may seem wonderful, but it will become boring after a long time.

It's so boring... which is another reason why Mu Zhi applied to investigate the Xinglong Villa nightclub.

If you keep holding it in like this in the office, you'll probably be able to hold back two tentacles and turn into a dragon...

Of course, you still have to find out the source of the Source Stone. After all, this is a task that you applied for on your own initiative, but... it is best to get the missing Source Stone before closing the network... Source Stone, mission, freedom, public funds are in vain

Whoring, this is a good thing that kills multiple birds with one stone!

Unpredictable once again liked his diligence (chou) and endeavor (not) to advance (face)...

Get on the tram and arrive at Puning Road, a commercial street.



In the VIP room of the Federal Commercial Bank, the female account manager came over with the deposit in Shen Mi's account and smiled brightly...

"Mr. Shen, it has been verified that your account received a wire transfer this morning, totaling 60 gold yuan." The female manager said gently with a rare respectful tone:

"Your deposit amount has exceeded 50 gold dollars, meeting the Federal Commercial Bank's private banking customer standards, and you can enjoy private banking services."

"Private bank..." Mo Zhi tried hard to recall this term that he never dared to think of in his previous life.

"It is a private service provided by the bank to high-net-worth customers. It provides high-end financial services such as asset investment and management to help you obtain investment income..." The female manager sat next to Mo Zhi in a very understanding manner. The collar of her shirt in her uniform was looming, and she reached out and handed it to her.

Come over and pass the bankbook.

Mo Chu glanced at the manager out of the corner of his eye and calmly took the passbook, but felt an itch in his palm...

The female manager's white and tender fingers deliberately crossed the palm of her hand.

The female manager had charming eyes and a smile on her face: "You are young and promising, so you can enjoy private banking services..."

"It's very personal!" He added in a low voice later.

This is the money for making "communications" for the time traveler chat group, not mine... Mozhi smiled casually:

"The money in this passbook is just for pocket money, there is no need for any investment or financial management..."

Hearing Mo Zhi's relaxed and casual tone, the female manager's eyes widened in surprise and her body trembled suddenly.

Without any hesitation, she sat a little closer, almost pressed against Mo Zhi's body, and reached out and pulled out a business card with a metallic luster:

"Mr. Shen, if you have a large deposit, please feel free to contact me..."

"We at Federal Commercial Bank, no, my service will definitely satisfy you!"

"Okay! I will consider it."

Mo Zhi put the business card in his pocket, looked at the pretty female manager again, got up and left...

Don't take away a single cloud.

It's great to have money, and the happiness of rich people is really unimaginable...

What a pity, I am a scholar!

...After leaving the bank, he walked straight into Qingyun Building not far away and ordered three silver rings.

This is a contract item prepared for communication. The reason why I chose the silver ring is because it is cheap and I have to save money for Ouyang Ao, the "finance owner".

Everything is ready, all we need is the Origin Stone... Mo Zhi looked at the time on his mechanical watch and saw that it was not yet noon and the nightclub would not be open during the day.

I have never been to a nightclub. If I go in with a different face, I will probably get a black eye... I pondered for a while and used the symbol to activate the mechanical watch:

"Is Douglas here? Let's go to the nightclub tonight!"

After a few seconds, there was no reply from Douglas, but the unpredictable communication was like a stone thrown into the calm water, causing confusion among his colleagues:

Carlisle: "I'm so dizzy, so unpredictable! You are obviously a college student!"

"I misjudged you. You are not the innocent person I imagined... Alas, men are all the same! I am full of disappointment in men."

Uncle Cat: "Fuck, I want to go too... I'm following you so much that I can't leave!"

Vera Alexandra: "Old Cat... Even if you go, what can you do?"

Uncle Cat: "Can't you take a look?"

Vera Alexandra: "If you just look, you can't always..."

Uncle Cat: "...Hey, it seems so!"

Luo Qing: "Unpredictable, how do you go to a place like this?"

"You have fallen. It's not right for you to do this. What's the point of those things? You can't give in to your desires... Those are just red and pink skulls, white bones and flesh."

"...Isn't it good to live a life full of sunshine? Captain! Don't you care about the unpredictable? Don't worry, I will never go to that kind of place."

Apart from being a pretty boy, you are still a Tang monk... Seeing Luo Qing's preaching, Mu Zhi shook his head in disdain.

Vera Alexandra: "Luo Qing, you can go, I don't mind..."

Luo Qing: "Uh..."

Rebecca: "Here's the gangster! He was playing cards in the office just now. Where did he go? Look, you've led someone astray again!"



Communication cannot be used for private chat, which seems to be a big problem...

After waiting for a few minutes, Douglas replied: "I was spreading water just now...who said I was a hooligan?!"

"Eh, unpredictable? No problem, call me after get off work!"

"You're treating me to a treat..." I added at the end.

There was another lament among the group, as if they were regretful to see a young ironman full of vigor slipping into the abyss of eternal destruction...

These guys... Ignore the chatter of his teammates and plan to spend the afternoon walking along the commercial street.

At the end of the commercial street, in front of the city center square and the Statue of Immortality, Mo Zhi was about to pass by when a shout attracted his attention.

"Guess the melon seeds! Guess the melon seeds! Bet casually for one payout."

"As long as you have good eyesight, it's easy to make money!"

"You won't suffer if you give it a try. You won't be fooled if you give it a try. It depends on today to catch up with Bai Fumei..."

Looking around, he saw a white-haired old man wearing a Chinese tunic suit sitting on the ground, with a rather celestial spirit. However, the words he shouted were completely inconsistent with his appearance as an outsider.

There was already a man squatting in front of him, playing some game, holding a wad of bills.

Gambling on the street?

Although he won a lot of money gambling last night, Mo Zhi still lacks interest in this kind of street trick...

Not strong enough!

Whether it is an old man or the squatting man holding a yellow copper dollar in his hand, it is difficult for a winning or losing game of this level to arouse the interest of a "casino veteran" like Mu Zhi.

But, just as he was about to turn around and leave;

Suddenly I felt a weak fluctuation of the source of symbols.

Although it is weak, it is undeniable, and the direction is exactly the direction of the old liar.

Contractor? Unexpectedly frowned and walked over...

The old man and a few others had a great time playing, and they had already accumulated a lot of copper coins in their hands...

As for the rules, they're simple:

There is a white porcelain cup on the ground to the left of the old man, and a lot of watermelon seeds are scattered on the right... Every time the old man will grab a handful of watermelon seeds with his right hand, then quickly throw it into the tea cup and cover it with the lid.

People around guess, of course, before guessing, you need to place a bet, such as betting one copper dollar. If you guess the number of melon seeds in the porcelain cup, you will win one copper dollar from the old man. If you fail to guess, you will win one copper dollar.

The copper dollar goes to the old man...

The test is the moment when the melon seeds fall into the porcelain cup.

Most people have no problem with this kind of eyesight. They can usually see the number of melon seeds instantly. Normally, the old man would die, but the result is exactly the opposite.

The handful in front of me, when the lid of the white porcelain cup was placed, there were five melon seeds inside. Unpredictably, I could clearly see that there were five melon seeds inside.

But after several players placed their bets, the lid of the porcelain cup was opened and seven melon seeds were found inside;

This made the bettor who was originally sure that there were five melon seeds in it almost unable to believe it, but unable to argue with it, he could only watch the old man happily take away the copper coins he had bet.

This handful also brings in an income of dozens of copper dollars.

"What the hell!" A man who had lost dozens of copper dollars stood up angrily, pointed at the old man and shouted.

"Don't make any noise, don't make any noise, don't make any noise..." The old man sitting on the small bench put away the banknotes he won, crossed his legs, and said impatiently:

"Can you afford to lose? If you can't afford to lose, don't play. If you lose, will you rely on me to cheat?"

"If you don't have money, why don't you guess melon seeds? If you're poor, go work in the South District. Don't embarrass yourself here..."

The old man seemed to be very good at coping with the situation at hand. He put the banknotes he won into his arms, looking like an old street gangster, which was completely inconsistent with his strong character in white clothes.

"No! You are a liar..." The man refused to give up: "Give me the money back!"

The old man laughed nonchalantly and pointed to the tea cup and pile of melon seeds in front of him:

"You say I'm doing something wrong? Then check it out and point out how I'm doing it?"

"If you can't say it, just talk nonsense!"

The man squatted down and checked the white porcelain cup and melon seeds several times...

The white porcelain cup is an ordinary white porcelain cup, so it’s no problem for drinking water. The melon seeds are also normal watermelon seeds, so you can eat a few of them without any problem... There’s nothing fishy about it.

As a result, the man who had no choice but to leave dejectedly.

However, because of the man's doubts, no one came together to gamble with the old man, and the crowd gradually dispersed.

Seeing that there was no one around, the old man was ready to pack up his things and move his position.

"Wait!" Mo Zhi walked forward, squatted on the ground, took out a ten silver dollar bill and put it in front of him:

"I play!"

The biggest bet in the audience appeared... Guazi Guazi's eyes lit up and he put down the white porcelain cup he had put away: "Come on, come on, next game!"

A handful of melon seeds were put into the white porcelain cup, and the lid was quickly closed...

Mo Bian saw clearly in an instant that there were six melon seeds inside, there was no way they were wrong.

However, he was not in a hurry to guess, because he could clearly see the trick inside just now.

I have seen this kind of roadside trick of guessing melon seeds countless times in my previous life. I have even watched various videos of solving roadside tricks on Bilibili - there are magnets on the lid of the white porcelain cup, and the melon seeds

There will be an option to replace the melon seeds with iron pieces.

The moment the lid was closed, the iron melon seeds stuck to the bottom of the lid by the magnet were knocked down into the cup due to the impact. It was a very simple trick.
