Chapter 1246: Another Card Cheat

Sponsored

The few playing cards fluttered to the ground, and upon closer inspection, there were a total of eight cards, two different suits! This guy was prepared with two plans!

Only then did Mrs. Liu react, her face changed dramatically as she looked at the cards on the ground, feeling hopeless.

Exposed!

He didn’t think to explain anything, his first reaction was to start running as if his house was on fire.

But he was in the center of the onlooking crowd, where could he run to? Besides, with his legs, could he run?

It was just a futile struggle, that look reminded Lin Tian of a fish left on the shore after the tide had receded, no matter how much it struggled and bounced, the outcome was the same.

Sure enough, he hadn’t run far before he was pushed back, falling awkwardly to the ground.

With so many people, Mrs. Liu couldn’t see who pushed him; he only felt a burning pain in his butt, kicked by someone.

Shan’s face was gloomy, he strode over to him, bent down, and hit him hard in the face with his fist the size of a sandbag, causing Mrs. Liu, who had just struggled to stand up, to fall back down.

Things weren’t over yet. Shan grabbed his collar again, pulled him up forcefully, and with bloodshot eyes, loudly questioned, "Explain to me where these cards came from!"

To Lin Tian, this question was purely nonsense, so he rolled his eyes and said, "Of course, he hid them beforehand."

"No, they’re not mine!" Mrs. Liu waved his hands in terror, trying to defend by pointing at him, "He stuffed these cards into my clothes and then shook them out, it’s all him!"

Lin Tian couldn’t help but laugh, glancing at him disdainfully.

"You’re kidding me, aren’t you?"

Shan held his collar in one hand and smashed the other down, delivering a sharp slap to his face. The slap nearly knocked Mrs. Liu’s molars out.

"No, no!" Mrs. Liu continued pointing at Lin Tian, saying, "I only hid four cards, the other four he stuffed onto me, believe me! Didn’t any of you see him do that?!"

Lin Tian squinted and smiled, looking at the onlookers, he asked, "Did anyone see me do anything on him just now?"

"Didn’t see."

"Don’t be fooled by that Liu guy, he tries to cheat and then shifts blame, do you think we’re blind? Ugh!"

Mrs. Liu felt hopeless; he wanted to respond, "You are blind!" But he didn’t dare, fearing the consequences if he angered them further.

Indeed, Lin Tian stuffed his cards into Mrs. Liu’s clothes, the very cards he prepared to cheat with beforehand. Keeping those cards would be an unwise choice; they were like time bombs!

His sleight of hand could easily fool everyone present, making Mrs. Liu’s evidence utterly useless.

Moreover, if one noticed carefully, among the eight cards falling out of Mrs. Liu’s clothes, the missing club 4 from the poker table was not there—meaning the card was in someone else’s hand. But everyone’s focus was on Mrs. Liu, ignoring that detail entirely.

Lin Tian glanced at the back of the crowd, spotting DS stealthily moving the cards hidden on him elsewhere, feeling guilty for wanting to destroy the evidence!

"Everyone, look! What’s that foreigner doing?!" Lin Tian suddenly shouted.

Instantly, everyone’s gaze shifted to DS, spotting him making sneaky movements by the poker table.

"He’s hiding something under the table!"

"It must be the cards!"

Everyone’s attention shifted quickly; DS’s face changed instantly. Despite the lack of focus on him, how was he discovered? That damned Lin Tian!

DS was quickly pushed aside, and someone reached under the table, immediately finding two cards stuck there, one of which was the missing club 4.

The truth was revealed to everyone!

Catching two gamblers at once, and one being part of the gambling den, made quite a scene. The entire gambling den was suddenly in an uproar, with one piercing national curse aiming directly at Zhang Ya’Er for an explanation!

All the gambling den people cheat, is this how it’s played?

If today’s mess isn’t handled properly, the gambling den might get cold. No one would come, and it might face social pressure and even scrutiny.

Don’t underestimate the revenge of gamblers. The ones who come here are VIP clients, influential in society. If they all exert pressure, it might be unbearable.

"Everyone, please calm down and listen to me for a moment."

Zhang Ya’Er shouted loudly, gesturing to stop the chaos; after several screams, the crowd gradually quieted, all angrily staring at her.

By now, Zhang Ya’Er almost hated Lin Tian to death, wishing she could rush up and bite off a piece of his flesh to satisfy her anger.

All because of this bastard, he’s not here to challenge; he’s here to cause trouble!

"Everyone, listen to me; today’s occurrence is indeed unexpected for me as well. Mr. DS’s cheating behavior is purely personal and unrelated to the gambling den. To compensate everyone, we’re giving each person fifty million gambling chips, with chips exchangeable at a one-to-one rate with Celestial Dragon Continent currency."

Zhang Ya’Er said loudly, her voice magnetic, sounding pleasant in combination with these benefits.

Sure enough, the crowd’s anger wasn’t as intense as before.

Fifty million per person, with the scale of people present, the gambling den is set to lose heavily tonight. Additionally, offering chips exchange without taking commission is a massive loss.

These losses are huge; even with Zhang Ya’Er in charge, she might not be able to make this decision, but she promised nonetheless.

Lin Tian indeed looked at her with new eyes.

She has guts and courage; being calm in the face of great events, letting her manage such small matters is a waste of talent.

Though such benefits were granted, many people were still dissatisfied, shouting, "These compensations are deserved! We want to see those damn cheaters punished accordingly!"

"Yes! Definitely can’t let them off so easily!"

"The old rule: cut off a finger!"

"Yes, chop off their fingers!"

Once someone took the lead, the crowd united in one heart, unwilling to let it go.

Originally, Lin Tian thought Zhang Ya’Er might struggle against it, but surprisingly, she waved her hand and said, "It’s only right! Chop!"
