bunny in another soap bubble

Half an hour later, Tu Zi was sitting on the railing on the side of the street, worrying.

He took a few travel-related guidebooks for free from the nearby tourist service center, and got a general understanding of the city's planning, characteristics and prices.In his world, because there are black and white twin towers and the World Sentinel Headquarters, City A is a global scientific research and education center. The city center is either a school or a research institute. The venues and the Initial Gate Museum are more popular.

But in this world, City A has developed into a tourist city because of its unique and magnificent ore terrain. There are hotels and restaurants everywhere, as well as amusement parks and casinos.

Watching people come and go, Tu Zi played with the casino's promotional brochures, feeling very entangled in his heart.

In the original time and space where Sentinel's guiding ability is well known, the gambling industry has long since died down and was banned by most countries. Instead, there are various competitive games based on gambling games and competing for Sentinel's ability.Because of its extremely high level of entertainment and growing population, these competitive games are developing very vigorously, with school leagues, national leagues, professional leagues, etc., and various leagues of different levels blooming.

For Tu Zi, a player who jumped out of the inter-school competition before graduating and ranked in the highest level of the National League in amateur competitions, casinos are of course the best way to make money, but...

(Does this look like cheating money...) Tu Zi kneaded the brochure into wontons, feeling that his conscience was not good enough.

And he didn't gamble...

(……what?)

Tu Zi stared suspiciously at a shop across the street.

There is no door panel in this store, just a large screen behind the hole that should be the door.If it weren't for the word "加" written on the screen instead of male and female villains, and the people passing by were not divided into male and female, he almost thought it was the entrance of a public toilet.

Tu Zi was not curious about the customers in a hurry. He was surprised that just now a man went in with a big backpack that was about to burst. When he came out, the backpack was deflated, and the man was much more nervous than before. Nervously, he switched the backpack to his chest and hugged it.

Doubt rose to the peak, Tu Zi decided to satisfy his curiosity before talking about other things.

Probing and touching behind the screen, Tu Zi immediately made a sudden move.

...Why just a wall?

"above."

A calm old voice sounded from the top of his head, and Tu Zi discovered that there was a counter above him that was higher than his whole body.

"I don't even know how to lift my head," the shopkeeper complained, "Aren't you here to make trouble?"

"Uh... I'll come in and take a look..." Tu Zi pardoned, "I'm sorry..."

The shopkeeper took a look at Tu Zi, who was wearing a private school uniform and a little greasy hair, and silently labeled him a "little master who ran away from home".

By the way, "the young master who ran away from home" = "being taken advantage of".

So the shopkeeper's patience came out.

"This is a pawn shop. If you need money, you can pawn it to me... It means borrowing money as collateral. If you pay back the debt with interest within the time limit, you can get the things back. If you don't pay, the collateral will be mine. He explained it nicely, "Why, do you want to visit the shop?"

Tu Zi's eyes lit up—he was so sleepy that he came to the pillow.

After thinking for a while, he took off the jade pendant of peace around his neck and handed it to the shopkeeper.

"How much can this be?"

The shopkeeper took a look, yo, this is a good jade.

He didn't understand his expression: "This kind of thing to keep children safe is not a good material... two hundred."

two hundred?

Isn't this not enough food and lodging for one day?

Tu Zi doesn't understand the quality of jade, but he is not reconciled to only having such a small amount of money.He dubiously stretched out his mental stylus to the counter, and as soon as he sensed it, he discovered the shopkeeper's little thoughts.

"You liar!" He accused loudly, and then said nonsense: "My family only has good things, no bad things! You can't be so dishonest in business!"

"Hey, you found out." The shopkeeper clicked his tongue, "It's my bad luck, two thousand—"

"Hey!"

After being treated as a fool twice in a row, Tu Zi also became angry.

"Tch." Finally admitting that Tu Zi wasn't really being taken advantage of, the shopkeeper spat sincerely, "Okay, [-], three months. If you sell it directly, you won't exceed this amount, [-] If you don’t make it, we still have to make money, don’t we?”

"Twelve thousand, six months." Tu Zi announced the bottom line from the shopkeeper's thoughts.

"You...!" The shopkeeper blew his beard and stared, and finally compromised: "Forget it, [-] is [-], then you can't tell others that I cheated on you when you go out!"

"Got it, boss." With the money in hand, Tu Zi's mood improved a lot, and he returned to his usual smile, only to be taken aback when he took the envelope.

"What?" The boss was vigilant, what was this smart kid thinking?

"It's nothing, nothing." Tu Zi smiled apologetically.He just didn't expect it to be banknotes for a while, except for the bottom of the mother's drawer and the museum. He hasn't touched this thing... But that's right, he doesn't have an account here, and he would be bad if it was electronic transfer.

Carefully stuffing the money into the inner pocket of the jacket, Tu Zi suddenly forgot about any moral struggles, and wanted to run to the casino immediately.

But of course not.

Recalling that the security guard at the memorial hall just now believed that he was still studying at a glance. In order to reduce the possibility of being checked for his ID card (because he didn’t have an ID card at all), Tu Zi bought some clothes and some daily necessities first, and then found a home to look at. Go to an affordable budget hotel to pamper yourself.

After taking a shower, putting on a more mature shirt and trousers, and applying half a jar of pomade on his hair, Tu Zi was finally satisfied with his look—although he still looked very young, at least he wasn't underage.

Finally, he spread out the "wonton" and looked at it again. Tu Zi chose a nearby casino and ran out happily.

The Jingyan casino chosen by Tu Zi is considered one of the largest casinos in the city. There are free shuttle bus stops on every street outside the venue, and there are several areas inside the venue.In addition to the difference between large and small amounts, there is also an area that refers to the operation of the sparrow house, allowing customers to gamble against each other, and the casino does not sit on the bank but only draws commissions.

Of course, the gambling area is the biggest reason to attract Tu Zi. If there is a casino as the dealer, the gameplay of many games will be different, and the element of luck will be more important. It is not a good thing for him who can't afford to lose the principal.

In order to prolong the stay time of gamblers, many worthless snacks are placed in the casino for anyone to take.Tu Zi walked around while eating, studied the gameplay, considered the odds of winning, calculated the cost, and finally sat down next to a table of Texas Hold'em that had just left one person.

"Welcome?"
