The hustle and bustle in the casino made Victor very uncomfortable, but he could only stabilize his mentality to avoid making wrong judgments on the hexagrams in panic. This is a matter of life and cannot be careless.
After calming down, Victor glanced at the pendulum hanging at the highest point, and immediately raised his hand to start fortune telling.
A, B, C, Ding, Wu, Ji, Geng... Zi, Chou, Yin, Mao, Chen, Si!
Victor muttered something in his mouth, and every time his thumb touched a knuckle, a faint golden light appeared on the six hexagrams.
He tried his best to cover up his left hand so as not to be seen by Henry or any passing daredevil.
"There are too many people..." Henry was more nervous than Victor. He looked at the gamblers in the entire hall and was helpless. It was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
A series of mantras were read out, and Victor's thumb fell on "Suxi".
"Good luck is coming soon. Go south to seek wealth. If you lose your property at noon, look for it when you meet someone on the road."
Victor muttered something, and Henry listened to him muttering for a long time and asked in surprise: "What?"
Victor waved his hand hurriedly, signaling Henry not to disturb him.
He kept trying to figure out the meaning of the hexagrams in his mind.
"The so-called seeking wealth and traveling south is an auspicious sign, but I'm not here to win money..."
Victor estimated the direction and looked at the tables of cards to the south.
"Sudden joy belongs to fire, and the three, six, and nine are the masters of planning."
"Three occupying the Yin position in Gen Palace is the northeast; six occupying the Si position in the Xun Palace, it is the southeast; nine occupying the Shen position in the Kun Palace, it is the southwest!"
"Go to the table in the northeast first!"
Victor told a bunch of mysterious and obscure jokes and dragged Henry to the table in the northeast where they were playing Texas Hold'em poker.
Henry was pulled to the table with a confused look on his face. Victor took advantage of someone to leave the table after losing money, and he sat on it.
"Hey! You rude guy, the cards haven't been played yet!"
Several men across the table were cursing the man who left the table, and Victor threw the cards into the pile: "Shuffle the cards again, let me play a few."
"Where did you come from, you bastard? I have a skeleton in my hand! Just wash it again if you tell me to wash it again?"
A bearded man slapped the table and stood up, glaring at Victor.
Henry immediately stood beside Victor, blocking his sight.
Upstairs, Weeden saw the two of them having a conflict with the gamblers, and the beardless eunuch's face was almost crooked with a smile.
"Don't rush to do it!" Victor spread his hands, raised his fingers easily, and pointed upstairs: "This is Mr. Thomas's ship..."
Just saying these words, using Thomas Cornwall's tiger skin, effectively frightened the other party. The bearded man was stunned for a moment, and then sat back unhappy.
"Place the blind bet!" Henry stepped back. Victor looked at the other five people present, then turned to the former and said quietly, "It depends on your eyes..."
The next moment, everyone at the poker table began to place blind bets.
Seeing the French banknotes with the president's face on them thrown to the table, Victor felt heartbroken.
Thomas only gave Victor money to play two rounds. If he lost money once he came, it would be troublesome.
The dealer dealt each person two hole cards.
Victor turned it over and saw a 3 of diamonds and a 10 of spades, and his whole heart froze.
"Follow!"
"Add!"
Two people on the other side placed bets, three people withdrew cards, and Victor was left to express his stance.
Victor glanced at Henry and gritted his teeth.
The three public cards in the second round are dealt.
Heart 4, Club 6, Diamond Q...
Victor's entire face changed again.
"Damn, I really want to make money in the south. I was so bad at the first poker game in the northeast..." Victor shouted silently in his heart.
Add!
Follow!
Victor gritted his teeth and listened to the opinions of the two guys opposite him. He glanced at Henry again, and the other man's eyes were always staring at the card pile.
"Did you see the clue?"
"It's not even close, let's play a few more games..."
Seeing that Henry had no results, Victor felt that there was no need to continue spending his wallet on this, so he chose to give up.
After he withdrew the cards, the remaining two people fought to the end. As a result, a man with a sharp chin won the last hand.
"Sanjo! You should give up earlier!"
"Shit!"
The man with the pointed chin laughed and took away all the banknotes on the table.
Victor touched the little money he had left, and said sadly to Henry: "Detective, my fate is in your hands, and I can give you another one!"
Henry ignored him, and his attention was highly focused on the dealer's hands shuffling the cards.
The second round has begun.
Place a blind bet.
Victor followed, and when he got the hole card, he turned it over, and well...it was the 3 of diamonds and the 10 of spades again.
Grass!
Victor was so angry that he wanted to turn over the table.
"No matter what, let's fight to the end! It's the last fight!"
Victor's face turned red, and with a heartache, he followed the opponent's bet.
Three community cards are dealt.
Ace of Hearts, 7 of Clubs, 8 of Diamonds...
Worse than the last one!
Victor couldn't stand it anymore, so he took out all his money and followed the opponent's bets to the last round. This time, only he and the man with a pointed chin fought to the end.
The last two community cards are the 6 of hearts and the 3 of spades.
"I'm afraid you'll have to pay for your pants here, sir..." The man with a pointed chin showed a sinister smile, spread out the combination and took a look, "56789, Shunzi."
Victor stared at his pair of three and fell into deep thought.
However, at this moment, Henry suddenly lowered his head and whispered to Victor: "That's him..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Victor immediately slammed the table and pointed at the other party: "You're out of luck!"
This slap stunned everyone at the table, especially the man with the pointed chin. He was stunned for a moment before he reacted. Then a burst of anger burst out, and he argued loudly and righteously: "
Did you eat shit in your fucking mouth!"
Immediately afterwards, the man subconsciously touched his waist for a gun, but his touch was empty, because after entering the gambling boat, almost everyone's weapons were taken away by security.
Henry quietly revealed to Victor the situation of his card recording. Victor was slightly startled, and then he did not give the opponent a chance to resist. He pointed at the remaining card piles and the cards in other people's hands and said: "I remember very clearly, four 9 points.
Three of them were dealt to the three gentlemen on the opposite side, and one was in the dealer's undealt pile. It is impossible for you to draw 9 points."
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
In fact, Victor was also surprised. Ever since he met Henry, he knew that Henry had good memory and observation skills, but he did not expect that he could reach this level and remember the positions of all the cards during the shuffling stage!
"You're talking nonsense! Damn it, I won't play anymore, it's so disappointing!"
The man with the sharp chin stood up and prepared to run away. Victor took the cards from the dealer's hand and found the 9-point card. The other three gamblers at the card table also understood and unfolded their trump cards.
The truth is revealed instantly!
The man with a pointed chin turned green all over his face, and the next second, Victor shouted loudly and called two casino security guards, who quickly caught this rich guy.
p>
Amidst the other party's wailing, Thomas on the second floor was leisurely drinking champagne. He had a meaningful smile on his lips and looked at Victor and Henry with interest.
"I caught one in less than ten minutes. Now I am starting to be interested in Mr. Victor..."
After Thomas finished speaking, the sinister smile on Weeden's face gradually disappeared. He looked towards Pierce. Accompanied by two thugs, the guy gradually fell into the card game, almost forgetting that he was going to arrest him.
It’s a scam.
"Maybe it's just bad luck..." He said a little unconvinced.
