10,000 points!
The dealer was deeply moved; this number was something many people on the island might never achieve in their entire lives.
Of course, what he didn't know was that these chips didn't belong to Chuanliu, and Chuanliu spent them without a second thought.
After several rounds of observation, Chuanliu was able to determine the randomness of the machine's throws. The dealer explained that the start time was about 15 seconds, the dice throw time was about 2 seconds, and the chip distribution time was about 15 seconds.
For half a minute, everyone's attention was still focused on the sudden incident.
Without giving it much thought, the dealer continued with the normal procedure, but his tone was more doubtful and questioning: "Okay, place your bet now, please press the throw button."
To avoid attracting more people, she quickly pressed the button, and the dice bounced inside the transparent glass dome.
The two dice collided with each other, one hitting the glass cover and stopping at 3.
The other one rolled once and finally came to rest at 6 o'clock.
The dealer frowned, looking at the young man with a complicated expression. "Nine points, big." He then counted the chips on the table.
At this moment, the act of betting 10,000 points had been noticed by several sharp-eyed people, and they gradually gathered around. Chuanliu couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
"I'm sorry, we don't have enough chips here. I've already notified my colleague to send some over immediately," the dealer apologized.
Oh no.
She overlooked one thing: the game table didn't have enough chips.
Chuanliu's heart sank. The mere few seconds of delay had already attracted the attention of many people, and gasps could be heard around him.
Several burning gazes from behind were greedily fixed on the chips on the table.
In fact, the logic behind Chuanliu's betting strategy is very simple. However, to outsiders, betting such a large amount of money seems like a desperate gamble.
Who wouldn't be tempted by such a large windfall?
Seeing that more and more people were gathering around, Chuanliu knew he was in trouble. Once he had enough chips, he quickly put them away and squeezed out of the crowd.
The girl tried to keep her hat brim low to minimize her presence as she moved through the casino.
To avoid suspicion, she switched to a few other games, deliberately lost a few rounds, and then played on the slot machine for a while.
Although Chuanliu shook off the people who had been following her since the game table, she still felt like there was a gaze she couldn't shake off no matter what she did.
She silently looked around, but apart from the bustling crowd, she found nothing unusual.
Three hours had passed since she entered the Red Heart Casino, and Chuanliu already had over 80,000 chips in his hand.
To avoid any unforeseen complications, she switched to another exchange and directly exchanged the money for cash, making no mention of the "6 of Diamonds" she had used as collateral.
Chuanliu finally breathed a sigh of relief when he received the cash deposit card exclusively for "Paradise Island".
Having achieved her goal, she quietly left the Red Heart Casino.
The moment she stepped out the door, the "Six of Diamonds" placed in the specially made safe automatically detected and activated the crushing system, turning into ashes.
However, after walking only a few steps, Chuanliu spotted a menacing figure not far away.
The waiter who had caused trouble earlier had been lying in wait at the door for a long time. When he saw Chuan Liu, he looked smug. There were also more than a dozen security guards in black behind him.
"Grab her!"
At the waiter's command, more than a dozen security guards rushed towards the flow of people.
The girl sensed something was wrong and, in a moment of panic, was forced to retreat back into the casino.
Immediately afterwards, the security guards took the lead and made a move.
Chuanliu sighed inwardly.
Sigh, I originally planned to come and leave quietly, but it seems I have no choice but to confront them head-on today.
"Who dares to touch me!"
Her voice wasn't loud, but it was enough to attract a crowd of onlookers.
The waiter scoffed, "A vagrant, thinking he's someone important?"
Chuanliu: "You keep saying I'm a homeless person, what proof do you have?"
Waiter: "Evidence? Your '6 of Diamonds' is the evidence!"
Chuanliu chuckled lightly, "Since you saw that I have a card, what makes you say I'm a vagrant?"
Waiter: "Because your cards were stolen! I saw you pawn them with my own eyes!"
Upon hearing this, the onlookers became even more curious, eager to listen closely.
Chuanliu: "If what you say is true, and I pawned the cards, then why don't I redeem them?"
Waiter: "Of course! You've already exchanged all the cards for money!"
At this moment, the person who had initially assisted with the exchange came out. He had heard the entire argument and immediately checked the safe. Unsurprisingly, the "6 of Diamonds" had been shattered into dust, beyond any possibility of verification.
Once a person falls into the self-justification trap, they will be unable to defend themselves and will ultimately fail.
Clearly, under everyone's watchful eyes, the waiter was sweating profusely. He grabbed the person exchanging money as if grasping at a straw, "Brother, tell me quickly, did she pawn a '6 of Diamonds' here?"
The person exchanging the money glanced at Chuan Liu, and being a master of interpersonal skills, he was momentarily at a loss for words.
The latter smiled and shook his head, "I'm so sorry, I think you must have mistaken me for someone else."
As she spoke, she took a card out of her pocket, facing away from everyone.
Chuanliu never expected that the trump card WD gave her would be used here.
"My ID card is right here, how could it have been used as collateral?"
Before anyone could investigate further, she quickly retrieved the card, giving them no time to react.
The waiter's pupils contracted, and he pushed aside the security guard beside him, about to rush forward. "Impossible! How could you have two ID cards! You must have stolen them, right!"
"Enough!"
The exchange agent's voice broke the waiter's frenzy, "It's now clear that this customer did not pawn his identity token. Let's put this farce to rest."
