Chapter 1228: God of Gambling Xiao Zheng
Xiao Zheng chuckled and confidently held up three fingers, saying, "You’ve mentioned before that it’s about guessing the numbers, so let’s play something more interesting. Let’s directly guess the numbers, shall we? I guess it’s three ones!"
Three dice with three ones, that was Xiao Zheng’s answer.
The woman frowned, feeling that Xiao Zheng had given up. Clearly, he was joking with her.
Even if the croupier was one of her own, the odds of rolling three ones with a stranger is extremely low.
"Have you just given up like this? Aren’t you concerned about your life?" the woman said disapprovingly.
"You said this place is really boring, so I thought we’d play something interesting. Don’t you think this is more fun?" Xiao Zheng said confidently.
The woman coldly snorted, turned her head, and said to the croupier, "Alright, I’ve given you a chance, but you didn’t cherish it. Go ahead."
The croupier smiled bitterly and shook his head. He was a dice master, but what numbers would come up? Did he not even know himself? In his mind, three ones were impossible.
Thinking of this, he gently lifted the dice cup in his hand. However, the scene that appeared before everyone amazed everyone and made the room silent.
The woman suddenly stood up, staring incredulously at the dice cup in the croupier’s hand.
Three white dice lay quietly in the cup, with three red dots standing out vividly.
"What?" The croupier’s face changed dramatically as he looked at the scene before him, subconsciously glancing at the woman.
The woman suddenly turned to look at Xiao Zheng, her eyes bursting with a stunning glow, "How did you do that?"
"I don’t quite understand what you mean. What do you mean how did I do it? Didn’t you say you wanted to play something interesting? So I guessed the numbers, and it seems I guessed right." Xiao Zheng laughed aloud.
The woman watched Xiao Zheng with some suspicion, feeling very strange. This croupier was known to her as the best dice shaker in her casino.
He could roll whatever numbers he wanted, and for outsiders, manipulating the dice was nearly impossible.
But now, could it be that Xiao Zheng could predict the numbers, and it was truly just a coincidence?
And even if it was a coincidence, it managed to be coincidentally three ones, which is simply unbelievable.
"Hehe... Your luck is really good. Shall we continue?" The woman said with a smile.
In the casino’s rules, it’s best out of five rounds, and this was just the first. Xiao Zheng won this one, but there are four more rounds ahead.
Xiao Zheng shrugged indifferently and said, "Let’s continue. However, my time is tight, so I’ll guess first. This time, I guess three twos!"
After speaking, Xiao Zheng looked up at the woman.
The woman’s face changed slightly because the croupier hadn’t started shaking the dice yet!
"The croupier hasn’t started shaking yet," the woman reminded.
"I know, and I’ve said before that my time is tight, so I guessed first. Does your casino forbid guessing before the other person shakes the dice?" Xiao Zheng spoke nonchalantly.
"You..." The woman was momentarily speechless, realizing Xiao Zheng was deliberate. If the earlier guess of three ones was a coincidence, then what about this second guess of three twos?
If one time can be a coincidence, what about twice? Or three times?
If Xiao Zheng isn’t really skilled, then he’s just pretending.
Remembering how Xiao Zheng claimed to be clueless about gambling, the woman found it somewhat laughable.
However, if Xiao Zheng truly possessed ability, that skill was astonishing. She had never seen anyone this skilled in her time in the casino.
After pondering, the woman turned back to the croupier and said, "Let’s continue then."
This time, the woman didn’t make a small guess or a number guess. Since Xiao Zheng had already guessed, if Xiao Zheng predicted correctly, he’d naturally win; if he was wrong, she would win.
From a rules perspective, Xiao Zheng was at a disadvantage. Rolling three identical numbers is called "leopard" in the casino, with very high odds.
The higher the odds, the more it proves how small the chance of rolling a leopard is, let alone Xiao Zheng predicting specific numbers.
The croupier standing there was getting nervous. The previous scene was entirely unexpected; he couldn’t control his own numbers anymore, letting someone else take control, which was a humiliation to him.
He swallowed and calmed himself, once again beginning to shake the dice cup in his hand.
Now, with the experience from last time, he was almost putting in 100% effort, paying close attention to the dice in his hand, ensuring no mistakes.
Meanwhile, he was discreetly watching Xiao Zheng, sitting not far away. If there was any small trick to manipulate the dice in his hand, he could discover it instantly.
But to his disappointment, Xiao Zheng sat there the whole time, not moving an inch.
After shaking for a while, he was sure he had rolled a very chaotic mix of numbers. He then placed the dice cup on the table and, after triple-checking the numbers, turned to Xiao Zheng.
The woman saw the seriousness on the croupier’s face and knew he was taking things seriously now. She had some confidence as she faced Xiao Zheng and said, "Although your actions didn’t break the rules, given that we’re gambling with life, there should be some privileges. I now grant you a chance to reconsider."
"No regrets, go ahead," Xiao Zheng said boldly.
His companion Wang Zixin looked difficultly at Xiao Zheng, wishing to pinch him. This was a matter of life and death, how could he be so reckless?
Even guessing the numbers before shaking, he directly predicted a leopard, and precisely reported the numbers—a near suicidal act.
The woman sighed and turned to the croupier, nodding.
After receiving the command, the croupier gently lifted the lid of the dice cup before him. What happened next made his complexion turn pale instantly.
Inside the cup, three white dice lay quietly, with three sets of twos appearing as if mocking the croupier’s and the woman’s ignorance.
The surrounding goons’ faces turned dramatically as they saw Xiao Zheng, never having seen such a feat in this casino before, not even hearing of such a thing in the gambling world.
