Chapter 14 014 - Willing to Bet and Accept Loss
It was almost noon when they arrived at Cheese Planet. Lu Jin and Shenks randomly found a restaurant to eat near the spaceport. They didn't even have time to find a hotel, so they went straight to Casino Royale, the biggest one on Cheese Planet.
"It's really rare, I haven't seen you here for a long time..."
"Hello, uncle." Lu Jin nodded to the middle-aged man opposite.The two brothers of the Shi family and Lu Jin's mother's sisters don't look very much alike. The Shi family has never had blonde hair, except for Lu Jin's two uncles.
"Have you had lunch yet? If not, there are many chain stores of brand-name restaurants in the casino, you can try it..." Shi Yiyong's tone was subconsciously warm, even he couldn't detect it.
On the contrary, Lu Jin frowned slightly, which he wasn't used to, while Shanks, who was following Lu Jin as a bodyguard, snorted disdainfully.
"Uncle, you are too polite." Lu Jin shook his head, "I am very flattered that you are willing to do me this favor. I didn't expect you to come out to pick me up in person."
Shi Yiyong chuckled twice: "It's my uncle who got your credit. It's different now. Xiao Jin became a second lieutenant at such a young age. His future is boundless!"
Lu Jin had never been praised so much before, so he was a little embarrassed, and he was speechless for a long time before he said, "Uncle is really well-informed!"
None of the brothers from the Shi family attended Lu Jin's wedding, but their news is even better than that of the Lu family. This depends on their business methods, as well as the branch obtained by investing in Royal Casino after inheriting Lu Jin's grandfather's inheritance.
Shi Shan has always hated seeing these two cousins, thinking that they stole his father's relics. Although they did not return to their grandfather's old business after getting that large sum of money, they were able to run the casino in a splendid manner. Casino Royale on Cheese Star is managed by these two brothers, and even has the title of the second "Casino", so it doesn't count as burying this surname.
Lu Jin accepted the casino platinum membership card that Shi Yiyong temporarily applied for him: "Uncle, is the person who asked you to pay attention last time, still here?"
"Yes, it's been there recently!" Shi Yiyong quickly replied, but his expression was a little strange in the middle of speaking, "However, your mother's... is also inside."
Lu Jin was stunned for a moment, but he was not surprised: "Polota?"
"Yes, I came here three days ago, and now I have won a small amount of money, so I guess I won't leave in a while." Shi Yiyong looked at Lu Jin uncertainly, "Do you want to go and see first?"
"Alright."
Lu Jin nodded: "Don't be too busy, uncle, just call a waiter."
Shi Yiyong wiped the sweat from his forehead, and readily agreed.
After being called by the big boss himself, the waiter was so nervous that he ran all the way over. What he saw was a man with long silver hair who didn't look like a good person, and a kid who didn't know whether he was an adult or not. He suddenly became a little suspicious.
"What are you doing, why don't you lead the way quickly!?" After taking off his military uniform, Shenks can be said to have restored the star thief's nature, and the arrogance on his face looks not much different from that of Liao Qiting.
The waiter was yelled at like this, how dare they doubt it, not to mention that they still have a membership card in their hands, and that card has special anti-theft means, so it cannot be a fake.
Then, the waiter took them to the first area of the casino.
The first district is basically ordinary people, crowded and noisy, and the various gambling facilities are dazzling.
Lu Jin saw Lewis standing in front of the gaming table at first sight, then looked around and found Polotta standing in front of the slot machine.
Polotta seemed to have lost several games in a row, and his face was not very good. However, he obviously did not give up. Just as he was about to start again, he heard someone calling him from behind.
"Who is it?" Polotta turned his head impatiently, saw that it was Lu Jin, immediately took a step back like a mouse seeing a cat, "Lu Jin? Why are you here?"
"I'm here to find someone." Lu Jin said flatly.
Polotta's face became even more ugly, and he said with a dry smile, "I'm looking for someone, maybe I can help?"
"Compared to my affairs, I think you should care more about yourself. Where does your gambling money come from? Does my mother know?" Lu Jin asked, staring into his eyes.
"Don't worry about it..." Polota wanted to be perfunctory, but suddenly his eyes lit up, and he looked straight at Lu Jin, with a smile on his face, "Xiao Jin, why don't you help me out?" Put? If you win a lot, your mother won't say anything..."
I thought that Lu Jin would reject him like before, but unexpectedly, Polota saw Lu Jin smiling at him: "Okay!"
"Really, really..."
"But I want to play that." Lu Jin pointed to the table where Lewis was on. When he spoke just now, Lewis had already switched to poker. Judging by his expression, it was just the opposite of Polota, and the harvest should be very rich. .
Polotta laughed so hard that he couldn't see his teeth, as long as Lu Jin was willing to agree, he didn't mind whoever the bet was.However, some people disagreed: "Hey, can you do it, kid!" Shenks' eyes showed a deep sense of distrust.
Polota thought that Shenks was Lu Jin's friend, and immediately put a hand on Shenks' shoulder with a smile: "He's fine, you know, Xiao Jin has been very lucky in gambling since he was a child, I used to bring him to the casino , almost never lost! At that time, his two uncles looked disgusted when they saw us..."
Shenks' eyes fell on Lu Jin's expressionless face, and he asked Polotta casually: "Then what happened next?"
Polotta sighed regretfully: "I didn't know what happened to him later, and I wanted to bring him back, but he refused to come anyway."
Shenks sneered and slapped Polotta's hand away: "Don't you understand?"
"Understand what?"
"He's afraid." Shanks stared thoughtfully at Lu Jin's back and said, "He's afraid of his own ability, afraid of getting something for nothing, afraid of becoming dependent on this kind of good luck and eventually losing his good luck one day. But , perhaps more because of his education that gambling is inherently an unhealthy activity, so stay away from it.”
Polotta was speechless for a moment, and after a long time, he smiled awkwardly: "It's not as serious as what you said, he was so young at the time, his grandmother must have told me that he didn't dare to come to the casino with me of."
"Maybe!" Shanks caught up with Lu Jin and watched him sit opposite Lewis.
"It's him..." Polotta also followed, saw Lewis who was opposite Lu Jin, and persuaded in a low voice with hesitation, "Xiao Jin, this person is not simple, I think he has never lost... ..."
"Of course it's not easy for him to lose, because the games he plays can all be calculated by probabilities. As long as the calculation ability is excellent, he has great confidence." Lu Jin replied.
Lewis on the opposite side seemed to sense that they were discussing him, and gave Lu Jin a provocative smile: "Little devil, you still can't beat me."
Lu Jin slowly squeezed his fist before asking, "Your Excellency Lewis, why don't we make an extra bet?"
"What bet?" The other party was able to know his name, which made Lewis a little vigilant, but he glanced at the other three. Except for the silver-haired one who felt a little dangerous, the other two were not to be feared. .
"If I win, His Excellency Lewis will work for me for free for a month." Lu Jin said.
"Haha! It's such an uninspiring bet!" Lewis shook his head, "I've met a lot of guys here who wanted me to make special mechas for them, and they said the same thing, but in the end, they lost There is only one pair of underwear left! Young man, I advise you to give it up!"
Lu Jin also shook his head: "I insist."
Lewis sneered: "Well, let's see what your persistence can bring you!"
The opponent has terrible calculation ability, but Lu Jin only has the unfavorable gambling luck when he was a child. Even Lu Jin himself doesn't know whether his gambling luck is still there, but at this time, he is not allowed to back down.
In the first game, Lu Jin bet all the chips in his hand and won.
In the second round, Lewis showed a serious look on his face, and bet most of his chips. The two sides stalemate until the last card, and Lu Jin won.
In the third round, Lewis treated every card carefully, and pushed Lu Jin to a desperate situation several times. In the end, the card was still one point lower than Lu Jin, and Lu Jin narrowly won.
"Is this colored candy poker?" Shenks didn't turn his head to ask Polotta until the two got off the table.
"Yeah!" Polotta's face was full of excitement. In the three rounds that Lu Jin won just now, he multiplied the chips in his hand several times, and he could imagine how soft he was when he counted the money. So he didn't get irritated by Shenks's unprofessional question, "Why are you asking this all of a sudden?"
"I saw him memorizing the rules of candy poker on the spaceship..." Shanks replied softly, but Polotta didn't pay attention, and wanted to exchange all the chips into cash, so he managed to get close to Lu Jin.
However, Lu Jin ruthlessly shattered Polotta's dream: "If I come later, Uncle Polotta will lose everything, so these chips are no longer yours."
"Xiao Jin, at least leave me tens of thousands, don't tell me you want me to go back and not be able to explain to your mother..." Polotta said with an ugly face.
"If you really want my mother to rest assured, you should hurry up and find a job! I will help if I can, but definitely not in this regard." Lu Jin looked at Polotta seriously and said.
Polotta's face immediately turned ugly, and he wanted to say a few more words to Lu Jin, but a force from nowhere threw him out, and when he stood up in surprise, he could only see Lu Jin I would like to go further and further away.
Shanks took Lewis by the collar and asked Lu Jin, "What should I do with this guy?"
"Since you promised to work for us for free for a month, of course you must treat Mr. Lewis well." Lu Jin smiled and opened the door of the suspension car for Lewis himself. "Then wish us a happy cooperation?"
Lewis turned his head to one side, and said angrily: "I would like to admit defeat, I have nothing to say."
The author has something to say: I have always thought about a stalk before thinking about the character design when writing articles. This time I tried something different. I thought about the environment first. The protagonist will become a character in a certain environment. What kind of person, and then think about what kind of story he will have...
So I also hesitated whether it is necessary to make it so complicated, but I want to pass on some positive energy to people who read the article. The protagonist may not be pleasing and he may not see any advantages in him. But he is really doing what he should do seriously, and is working hard to realize his own life value.
He didn't use his dislike of the maintenance major as a reason for intentionally low scores in the test, nor did he only see his brother's glamorous side and ignore his hard work behind his back. The premise of his mother's wish for his son to become a dragon is to arrange for his brother to learn a major that can help his brother. If Lu Jin is not allowed to feel unjust in this way, then Lu Jin should have died by now.
Maybe he died when he took the blame for his brother, maybe he died when he donated his father's organs, maybe he was approached by the usury owed by his mother...
Even why did I write so much about Lewis and mechs in Chapter 13? Lu Jin doesn’t like them, but it’s just because I want to help Liao Qiting find the best technician and save the army’s resources. Difficult to overcome!Lu Jin will still investigate silently because he doesn't understand the technical terms. He is trying to do a good job in logistics, and this is the job that suits him best, and it is also his development goal!
If you read this and find that the protagonist is a bastard full of negative energy, insidious and despicable, and not even worthy of living in this world, I am deeply sorry for this. This is not what I want to express. I can only say that my writing is not enough. Such a regrettable misunderstanding.
This article makes you unhappy, just click the cross silently, I don’t want to be responsible for something I have never written, but someone misunderstood, for the role of working hard to live, I have the obligation to explain.
Seeing that I seldom talked about what the author had to say before, please forgive me for taking up traffic this time!
