Things finally didn't develop in a worse direction.
At around one o'clock in the afternoon, Xue Mingjie finally closed the stall and closed the shop. He went to a nearby local bank and walked out after a while carrying a suitcase.
"Although the box is not big, it should still contain three to four hundred thousand..."
Knowing what he was going for and having just come out of the bank, Xia Xu naturally guessed what was inside.
After leaving the bank, Xue Mingjie took a taxi. Fortunately, Xia Xu had already considered the possibility of him taking transportation, and the station was at the corner of an intersection where there were often motorcycle taxis soliciting customers.
Xue Mingjie had just stopped the taxi and didn't have time to get in. He immediately stepped onto the back seat of a motorcycle and signaled the motorcycle driver to follow the car later.
The wind was strong when the motorcycle was driving, and the whistling was poured into my ears. It was basically impossible to hear clearly if I wanted to chat, so the driver was not as eloquent as the taxi driver. After negotiating the price, he followed up honestly.
After seven or eight detours along the way, the taxi Xue Mingjie took finally stopped in a deserted neighborhood.
The area around here is all newly developed or under development, so it is basically uninhabited. There are only a few construction sites where construction teams are working, and the rest of the place is deserted. The ground is either pitted or covered with loess and dust.
In order not to be too conspicuous, Xia Xu let the motorcycle follow him from a distance. After watching the taxi enter a vacant community, he got off the car and paid the bill, and followed it on foot instead.
After walking into the community, he happened to see the taxi turning back with only the driver left. Xia Xu followed the direction and soon discovered Xue Mingjie, Yao Dawu and his group.
Yao Dawu's side was still composed of six people in suits and leather shoes. They were directly in an open-air shed, and there was a square table inside. Except that the place was a little off, it was no different from ordinary playing cards.
"What about gambling? I thought it could be like a Macau casino."
Xia Xu stared at this scene from a distance and curled his lips.
I was also influenced by various gambling movies. When I saw the gambling, I subconsciously thought that it might be an underground casino with a lot of money and money. I never thought that it would be no different from an ordinary gambling gathering. I found a remote place to build a shed and started.
But thinking about it, according to the synopsis of "The Dying Man", Zhang Jianmin did not seek gambling specifically but accidentally bumped into him after being hungover. This shows that the place where Xue Mingjie and Yao Dawu gambled cannot be too hidden, and it is basically not
It will be indoors or a professional casino like those in gambling movies.
Now that the two main supporting actors in the first act are in place, all that remains is for the protagonist to take the stage, and the big act can officially begin.
Before the protagonists even appeared on the stage, Yao Dawu and Xue Mingjie were already at the table for gambling. There were four people at the table, and three of them were Yao Dawu and his younger brother. They were very ungrateful.
It could be seen that the four of them were playing poker, but Xia Xu did not dare to get close, so he could not clearly see the specific gameplay and situation, and he was not paying attention to the game. His entire attention was focused on the intersections around him.
The card game is just a small plot of a dying man. The core of the entire plot is always the protagonist Zhang Jianmin. It doesn't matter if you miss the card game. As long as you find the protagonist, there are always other opportunities to gain benefits.
"finally come."
The surroundings were deserted and empty, but if there were any figures walking on the road, they would still be very conspicuous.
More than ten minutes after the game started, a middle-aged man with a haggard face and bloodshot eyes staggered over, and when he passed by Xia Xu, there was a strong smell of alcohol.
【Name】: Zhang Jianmin
【Life Level】:1
[Fate Potential]: [Protagonist: "The Dying Man"]
[Talent potential]: Driving (1 star)
【Special】: None
[Obsession]: You must have enough fun before you die.
【Favorability】:0
I checked Zhang Jianmin's attributes and found that they were a bit unremarkable. Xia Xu, who originally thought that the protagonist of this kind of plot could have some incredible abilities or special talents, was a little disappointed.
There was no time to think too much. Seeing that the 'protagonist' had already entered the scene, Xia Xu immediately cheered up and observed the development of the matter wholeheartedly.
Zhang Jianmin may not have fully sobered up after a night of hangover, not to mention that he has only one month left to live in a serious condition without treatment. It can be said that he has no scruples at this moment.
At this time, he was definitely at his most hysterical and dangerous, and he did everything unscrupulously.
He saw him passing by the gambling shed where Yao Dawu, Xue Mingjie and others were gambling. He must have wanted to give it a try. Regardless of whether he recognized him or not, he just walked over. After being stopped by Yao Dawu's younger brother, he walked directly
He showed his intention to come and patted his bank card on the table.
Both Xue Mingjie and Yao Dawu are basically good players in the gambling world, and Yao Dawu would not let go of such a crazy sheep who came to his door.
Although Xue Mingjie gave some kind words of advice, he himself was riding a tiger and couldn't get off. In addition, Zhang Jianmin was determined to try gambling and couldn't listen to the advice of others, so he finally joined in. One of Yao Dawu's younger brothers gave up.
Location.
"The show begins."
Seeing that everything was on track, Xia Xu smiled.
According to the normal plot development, Zhang Jianmin should have been playing blindly after getting involved, but he relied on his luck to win money in various ways, which produced a contrasting comedy effect.
At this time, if he could go over and follow Zhang Jianmin on the outside, he should be able to make a lot of money.
but……
"Hey, are you the police? I want to report it. I found someone gathering to gamble..."
Xia Xu silently dialed a three-digit number.
Run over and participate in gambling like Zhang Jianmin?
What a joke, we are all law-abiding and good people, with flowers under the red flag and a red scarf.
Okay... Actually, he had checked before, and Star City was recently cracking down on gambling in groups.
According to Star City's incentive measures for gambling reports, bonuses can be obtained based on the percentage of gambling funds seized. If the gambling amount exceeds 500,000, you can get 6%.
The bet between Xue Mingjie and Yao Dawu was obviously not just a game of hundreds and thousands, and Zhang Jianmin wasted no time in investing his fortune. He must have spent hundreds of thousands in gambling, and the bonus alone was a lot of money.
As for his own participation, Xia Xu never thought about it from the beginning to the end. He just wanted to join in to win more money or even win all of them.
When Yao Dawu approached Xue Mingjie before, his obsession column clearly stated, "I also want to let Xue Mingjie taste the taste of bankruptcy."
The word 'ye' is the key point. Just this word can deduce the reason for the bet between the two. It is obviously because Xue Mingjie once won money from Yao Dawu.
Yao Dawu obviously had a dirty foundation. This time he came to force him. It was most likely that Xue Mingjie, who had already washed his hands and wanted to "live a good life," made a bet and wanted to come back for revenge.
If he participated in it and won Yao Dawu's money, he would probably be entangled by Yao Dawu like Xue Mingjie in the future, causing a lot of trouble, and it would be more likely that he would use more extreme methods.
If you can force Xue Mingjie to bet with him this time, you can force him next time, or even rob him.
Facing these characters with black backgrounds, he, a little high school student, has no ability to resist at all. With the special ability to check attributes, there will be many opportunities to make money in the future. There is no need to take such a big risk just for this greed. Risks and benefits are not equal.
Proportional.
What's more, to be honest, it's useless even if he is reckless and likes to take risks. With his current situation, he has no qualifications to participate.
Is it possible for him to run over with the tender face of a high school student and a deposit of less than 4,000 yuan in his card and say that he wants to participate in the gambling game?
In a gambling game where people can easily get a box of cash, it would be crazy if they could afford three to four thousand yuan. This obviously childish high school student's face would only be regarded as a brat.
What can you do if you get involved? Are you betting against the protagonist Zhang Jianmin? Knowing that his luck is unlucky, he will lose even if he loses his pants.
Not to mention the pressure on the outside world. He is a little brat who can't even be considered a supporting role in the plot. How big of a face can he have to get people to agree that he can control the outside world by himself? He only has three thousand yuan in his card?
