Even in Gotham, there are still people coming and going. Jason stands in front of the intersection and observes his favorite prey. This is the only skill his father taught him. The rich, or the assholes.

It's like a fat man in front of him who is holding up a brand-name watch to show off everywhere. His mustache shakes with his movements. He is full of pride. He looks rich but not running fast. I feel sorry for myself if I don't steal it.

Patiently followed behind the fat man for a few streets, and when he finally finished showing off his brand-name watch, Jason slowly approached. At the moment when he was about to make a move, someone beat him Stopped him quickly and quickly, grabbed his hand and pulled him away, only to watch the banknote get farther and farther away from him.

Jason glared at the man's arm, but he didn't expect that it was the blind girl from yesterday. She was not fast at this time, but she was able to avoid the flow of people and walked forward. She didn't look like a blind man until she walked into the alley Only then did the girl let go of her hand.

"What are you stopping me from doing!" Jason hugged his shoulders in dissatisfaction. No matter who knew that he would have no dinner tonight, his attitude would not be so good. If he said that children should not steal, he had heard it many times If you can not steal, who will do it.

"Oh, so it's you, Jason." Roxanne was slightly surprised, as if she just realized that it was Jason she dragged away.

"Shouldn't you know who you're after before you catch me?" Jason raised an eyebrow.

"I knew someone was going to steal something, but it was you who didn't expect that you didn't speak aloud all the way." Roxanne said casually. After one night, her ability can be used, but the range of perception is only Half a meter, but enough for her to avoid crowds and walk, but feeling that someone is there does not mean knowing who that person is.

"Besides, I stopped you for a reason. You may not know it. That person has some influence behind him. If it is found out that you stole it, you will be the one in trouble."

"How do you know, didn't you just come to Gotham recently?" Jason frowned and stared at Roxanne's face, trying to see something from it.

Roxanne pointed to her ears and said indifferently, "I heard back, my ears are sharper, and people around him are more afraid of him, so I know. Don't just focus on the target, pay more attention to your surroundings."

"..." Jason was silent, looking at her with complicated eyes. He was uncomfortable with the other party's kindness. He was used to being hurt and unfairly treated, so such rare kindness, He didn't know how to respond.

Fortunately, Roxanne didn't know Jason's silence, so she continued, "It's school time, why are you here? Where's your family?"

"Not everyone has the money to go to school." Jason turned his head away and responded with a rare cooperation.

As for his parents, Dad leaves early and returns late at night. According to his bedtime stories, he made his mother pregnant. Jason will never want to know where he went, and his mother has already suffered from depression. Smoking or sleeping all day long, Jason knew that they had always been unqualified as parents, and on the bright side, at least he wasn't born into a broken family.

"...That's it." Roxanne thought for a while, then patted Jason on the shoulder, turned and walked away, "Anyway, you are free, can you take me somewhere?"

Jason: "Where are you going?"

Roxanne smiled back, "A good place to make money."

A tall figure and a short figure came to the dark and damp alley, entered the bar, passed through the stairs through the secret door, and fell to the bottom. The shorter figure gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "I brought you here because I was crazy." here!"

Looking at all kinds of gambling games, such as roulette, craps, dice, blackjack, etc., they came to the underground casino.

This kind of person who may lose all his money and be heavily in debt, and who may offend the official or gangster background, may not even have his life at that time!

I'm afraid this woman is not gambling with money, but with her life!No, I skipped the step of betting my life, but came to commit suicide!

Jason regretted coming here. The woman next to him was confident enough to gamble back the money. How do you think a blind man gambles?

"Jason, take me around." Roxanne wore black sunglasses to cover her calm black eyes, looking like a normal person, avoiding unnecessary troubles.

Jason didn't speak, and took Roxanne's hand to do so. Finally, they stopped beside the wheel/disk. The wheel/disk rotated around the axis of rotation and was divided into 38 long and thin channels. The 36 channels are numbered 1 to 36, half of which are red and half are black.The other two green channels are labeled 0 and 00 respectively.

"What color number is the ball dropping now?"

"Red 23."

After waiting for several more rounds, Roxanne patted Jason on the shoulder and said in a low voice, "Afterwards, you can bet on any number, but there must be a red 23."

Recalling the conversation just now, Jason raised his eyebrows and did as he said nothing.

The wheel/disc started to spin, and the ball rolled on it. Finally, unexpectedly, or as expected, Jason stared blankly at the last number entered by the ball...

— Red 23.

This game is very simple, you can bet on red or black numbers, bet on even or odd numbers, anyway, bet on which number slot the ball will fall into, basically it depends on luck, basically.

But Roxanne is not, her ability is wind, she only needs to push the ball to the grid she wants.

Jason suppressed the shock in his heart, knowing that now is not a good time to say these things, he resisted the desire to turn back and ask, and accepted the money he had won, his hands trembling slightly, the top of his head sank, and a calm voice came from his ear .

"Next round, tell me what's the fifth one to the right of the ball."

"Then lose a few rounds first, don't be too public. Do you understand?"

Jason suddenly felt relieved. He nodded to express his understanding. If he continues to play in this way, he needs to be slow, but he must win the money back. If he wins enough money, he will accept it as soon as it is good.

"Hey, how did you do that! I mean just like that!"

Outside the bar, Jason asked excitedly. Compared with the calm Roxanne, it seemed that he was the one who won the money back from the bet.

Roxanne hooked her lips upwards, "You can do it too."

Jason was speechless at this moment, and couldn't help opening his eyes wide, gasped, and stared blankly at Roxanne.

"Didn't you have blackjack just now? If you can count cards, you can win money back. As for the wheel/board, you must have good calculation skills to predict where the small ball will go. Roxanne nodded Jason's forehead and joked, "So, study hard! Brat!"

"What—" Jason covered his forehead and backed away, clenching his teeth and said, "You know that's not what I meant!"

"But you want to make money, right? It's not the same. You can't learn my method, so give me a good study." Roxanne took out the money she just won and threw it to Jason, "Let's have a Let's make a deal."

"I need a place to live, and the money is rent, let me live here for a few days, and then I will find a job to continue renting, so you don't have to come out to steal, and you can stay at home and learn how to count cards. This is a win-win result .”

"what do you think?"
