Chapter 79: 79. Do big things!
The dealer’s face turned very anxious, and Ulat’s heart tightened.
How does this guy know...?
Damn it... No, impossible. This is the top secret of Horus Grand Casino, not even An Nishang would know, and Chen Che couldn’t possibly know.
Despite saying this, Ulat still signaled to the people in the shadows.
Chen Che noticed the faint change in lighting behind the dealer, curling his lips in a disdainful smile.
With a cold voice, Ulat questioned, "Chen Che, if you don’t give an explanation today, even with Director An backing you, don’t think you’ll walk out of this casino unharmed."
The casino security swarmed in.
Bobby instantly became tense.
Xia Na directly stood up, annoyed by the skirt’s hindrance, tearing it apart with a pull, standing beside Chen Che with her long, beautiful legs exposed. A blue Demon Pattern resembling lightning appeared on her abdomen, and her eyes glinted with electricity.
Chen Che patted Xia Na’s shoulder, gesturing for the security guards to calm down, then stared at Ulat, saying, "Manager Ulat, still being stubborn, huh? Then I’ll let everyone see the casino’s extraordinary trickery in front of so many esteemed guests."
"Everyone, look at the two decks in my hand, one being the deck we just gambled with, and the other the new deck the dealer brought. Do you see any difference between the two?"
"From the look of the patterns alone, none, right? They look identical, right?"
Chen Che spread the two decks on the table, seemingly identical from the outside.
Nearly all the casino guests focused on the scene, whispering among themselves.
"This has to be said, the casino’s means are ingenious, mixing reality and illusion in the game. The deck about to be switched out has its back patterns manipulated so that under specific lighting, they reveal minute lines, allowing one to determine the card based on these backside patterns.
With some casino techniques, the dealer can distribute cards to specific people, thus controlling the outcome of the game."
The entire casino exploded into chaos.
The discussions were ongoing.
From the start, Chen Che harvested from the entire casino, causing everyone to lose a large sum of money.
There was a sense of injustice boiling within, with nowhere to unleash it.
If the casino was found to be cheating, these gamblers wouldn’t care whether Chen Che or the casino swindled their money.
Surely, they’d cause a commotion.
Such a commotion would trigger a collective effect, indeed leading to something catastrophic.
Cold sweat broke out on Ulat’s forehead; Chen Che indeed knew the puzzle of the deck.
How did he come to know?
Ordinary eyes wouldn’t detect the difference in these cards without learning specific techniques!
No! I can’t admit it!
If the casino admits it, they’ll definitely have stirred up a hornet’s nest.
"Without proof! Just with your unfounded claims, you want to destroy my entire Horus Grand Casino? Take him down immediately!"
"Let’s see who dares." Blue lightning surged from Xia Na’s body.
The overwhelming aura instantly halted the advancing security.
Damn... a Demon Pattern-wielder... seems their power isn’t weak indeed.
"Manager Ulat, why are you in such a rush? Don’t be anxious; I still haven’t proved to everyone whether what I said is true. Your anxiety is revealing yourself without even being confronted! Why challenge me about why I said this?"
Brilliant! After these words, the surrounding crowd’s gazes at Ulat grew more peculiar.
This behavior truly seems self-revealing.
If it were false, wouldn’t letting Chen Che prove it settle the matter?
Ulat’s mouth twitched; he didn’t dare gamble. If Chen Che could actually prove it, a catastrophe would certainly break out. Taking down Chen Che in advance might be hard to explain, but at least without direct proof, the casino could still deny it!
But just as Ulat wanted to speak, Chen Che eagerly addressed the surrounding spectators: "Everyone, please focus here, on me, look at me!"
With a smile, Chen Che surveyed the surrounding lights and pointed behind the dealer, saying, "I know there are some old gamblers among us, your skills are excellent, yet still can’t detect the mystery of this deck—a testament to the lighting behind the dealer.
This deck requires a hint of purple light from a specific angle, squinting to see the differences.
Our cautious Manager Ulat had already ordered the purple light behind the dealer turned off, so I must find another place..."
Chen Che guided the audience’s attention to a table where dice were being played.
"Tsk tsk tsk, the casino is truly cautious, with no purple lighting around the card tables, only this dice-playing area still has untreated purple lights. My eyes are good enough, this bit of light suffices for my use. Please watch my show."
Ulat’s face turned pale.
He even knows this?!
No, he must have known in advance! This is the casino’s absolute secret!
This tactic isn’t used unless the casino is losing money big-time, only today did Ulat decide to use it after Chen Che’s sweep caused significant losses.
The fact that Chen Che could know... there’s a mole in the casino!
Actually, there isn’t a mole; Chen Che has no idea he could know this secret, entirely due to the effect of listening to Candy of the Heart.
He deliberately lost so much money; firstly, to memorize the patterns on the cards, his brain has that capacity. Secondly, losing money attracted the entire casino’s attention to stage a big event.
He didn’t forget; there’s still a mission.
He was fretting over how to inflict the greatest loss on the casino, and now the casino handed him the knife themselves?
If he doesn’t ruin this casino, he wouldn’t be Chen!
"No wait, don’t rush... even if he knows, so what... it’s impossible for him to know the casino’s techniques..." Ulat consoled himself, quickly thinking of countermeasures while silently ordering people to seek reinforcements.
However, Chen Che’s subsequent actions made Ulat’s scalp go numb.
Chen Che directly invited a few gamblers who had lost money to sit at the table, then began to skillfully shuffle the cards.
The shuffling skill brought Ulat’s heart into his throat.
Too skillful, more entertaining than the casino’s dealers.
Bobby and Xia Na were dumbfounded.
Chen Che even showed off fancy shuffling in front of everyone, each hand holding a stack of cards, bending and squeezing the stacks together to fly into the center, perfectly integrated.
This technique, even after a decade as a dealer, might not have!
Chen Che, with a smile, joked that during his fame as Food God and the grandson of certain Gambling King, he played graciously.
The Gambling King adopted him as a grandson.
This gambling skill inherited entirely from the Gambling King’s family.
Though gambling in the Wasteland has developed, it still lacks something. Against those seasoned gambling technique researchers in the civilized world, the skill is novice-like.
Dazzling shuffle skills left all gamblers stunned.
Chen young master, in the dark observing the jig, and Xu Ziang, changed color even more.
This guy has been pretending to be a fool all along!
After completing the shuffle.
Chen Che began to deal cards swiftly, with such speed leaving afterimages, soon dealing all cards to the four selected gamblers in front of him.
"Everyone, please reveal your cards."
The four gamblers looked at each other, turning over their cards one by one, all shocked.
One had all hearts, one all spades, one all clubs, one all diamonds!
"What cards do you want, say the word! I’ll deal them to you!"
