His Acting Was So Good As a Ruthless Criminal, Drawing the Attention of Police Officers Across the Internet

156: My hair, my leopard, where did it go?After a while, Lin Pei said slowly.

”I have... 99.83 billion here. All in.”

”Will Mr. Chen call this time?”

Chen Qing looked at Lin Pei’s cards again; it was still the same Flush: 3 of Diamonds, 5 of Diamonds, and 8 of Diamonds. No change.

He had already instructed his people to keep a close eye on Lin Pei’s movements, but thinking about it, with Lin Pei’s card-swapping technique, such a hand probably couldn’t be changed into anything significant.

Even a Straight Flush would be difficult, let alone comparing it to his Set.

While everyone was incredibly excited and expectant, Chen Qing smiled.

”Kid, I’m calling this hand.”

The surrounding crowd couldn’t help but cheer.

This hundred-billion gambling match was finally on. Thrilling!

”Damn, I’m about to have a heart attack. If I faint later, remember to pinch me awake; I want to see who wins this match.”

”Cough... you’d better take your medicine first, otherwise I’m afraid you’ll never wake up. Not waking up is one thing, but it’d be such a shame not to see the result.”

”Damn it, I’ve already taken double the dose. Any more and I’ll be poisoned.”

”Look, both of them look confident again. It feels like they both have good hands.”

”I’m betting on the God of Gamblers. Brother Lin’s expression has always been like this, no change at all. The God of Gamblers has changed quite a bit; look at him this time, he can barely suppress the smile on his face. That hand must be at least a Straight Flush, right?”

”No, no, I’m still betting on Brother Lin. Don’t you remember? Since Brother Lin entered this casino, he hasn’t lost once.”

”How about we also place some bets and see who wins?”

”...”

Previously, Lin Pei had been winning steadily, and after even the God of Gamblers lost two rounds to him, Lau Tak Wah was originally full of confidence in Lin Pei.

He thought Lin Pei was born with divine luck, a God of Gamblers physique.

But at this moment, he remembered the previous round where Lin Pei’s hand was the smallest, showing that his luck wasn’t good every single time.

If Chen Qing hadn’t folded, those hundred billion would have been lost.

Lau Tak Wah was a bit worried and whispered to Lin Pei.

”Brother Lin, how much confidence do you have in this round?”

Lin Pei curled his lips and tried his best to be modest.

”120%?”

As soon as Lin Pei finished speaking, he heard a strange cry from behind him.

”120%? Why don’t you say 1200%?”

”The person sitting opposite you is the God of Gamblers. What boastful talk!”

Lin Pei and Lau Tak Wah turned around and saw that Wang Feng had squeezed over to their side at some point.

Lau Tak Wah sneered.

”My Brother Lin can say whatever percentage he wants. The winner is king, and the loser has no face.”

”Heavenly King Wang? You seemed to have failed just now.”

The loser has no face?

It was the first time Wang Feng had heard this phrase.

But after Lau Tak Wah’s reminder, a sense of shame for losing face indeed welled up in his heart.

So he took a step back and buried his face in the crowd again.

Opposite him, Chen Qing propped his arms on the table.

”Kid, I won’t show my cards first this time.”

”Shall we do it together?”

As far as he could see, Lin Pei’s current hand still hadn’t been swapped, and it looked like he didn’t intend to swap it.

Showing cards together was also to prevent Lin Pei from swapping cards after seeing his own.

Lin Pei’s expression remained calm as he nodded in agreement.

”Sure.”

The crowd was already scratching their heads in anxiety, sweat pouring down their faces.

Hearing that the two were going to show their cards at the same time, they immediately began a countdown of three in unison.

It was no exaggeration to say that they counted with much more energy than during the annual Spring Festival Gala countdown.

”3, 2, 1... Show cards!”

As the crowd’s voices fell, Chen Qing and Lin Pei revealed their cards at the same time.

Soon, everyone gasped in unison.

”Holy shit, a Set! Brother Lin’s hand is a Set.”

”More than that, three Aces of Spades! That’s the highest possible Set.”

”Eh? Why does this hand feel so familiar?”

”How could it not be? Brother Lin drew a Set of three Aces in the very first round today.”

”Damn, I remember now. Brother Lin is just too incredible. Ordinary people wouldn’t get this hand once in hundreds of years, yet Brother Lin has shown it to us twice in one day. Even the God of Gamblers is nothing compared to this!”

”...”

Hearing everyone’s shouts, Chen Qing couldn’t help but be startled.

He immediately looked over at Lin Pei and found that Lin Pei’s hand was indeed three Aces of Spades.

His temples throbbed twice.

How did Lin Pei’s cards suddenly become three Aces?

He had looked at Lin Pei’s cards just before showing them; at that time, they were still a Flush.

If he swapped them, it could only have been done at the very moment of showing the cards.

It was only a second or two; how could that be possible?

Could this kid’s cheating speed have already reached such a level?

Then in the round he didn’t call, was this kid intentionally not swapping cards to lure him into continuing?

Truly despicable!

The more Chen Qing thought about it, the more panicked he became.

This kid is too terrifying. Fortunately, he had also swapped his cards to three Aces of Spades early on, otherwise he would have definitely lost this round again!

This was a hundred-billion-dollar gamble. If he lost this round, his fortune and reputation would all be gone.

But if it were a draw, and he took the opportunity to leave later and end the gambling match there, at least his assets could be preserved, and his face wouldn’t be too badly bruised.

Just as he was calming down slightly, he heard Lin Pei’s voice.

”Mr. Chen, you lost.”

”Thank you for letting me win.”

”???”

Chen Qing frowned in confusion with a slight sneer.

”Kid, why do you say that? It’s clearly a draw. How could you have won?”

Lau Tak Wah had almost jumped up in excitement just now, smiling so much his eyes were squeezed shut.

His face stiffened upon hearing Chen Qing’s words.

”A draw?”

”Wait, Mr. Chen, are you okay?”

He turned to ask Lin Pei again.

”Brother Lin, is he okay?”

Chen Qing only felt that the surrounding atmosphere was very wrong; people’s reactions were somewhat beyond his expectations.

It was just a draw; why was everyone reacting so strangely?

At the same time, the crowd’s discussions became clear in his ears.

”Hiss, why is the God of Gamblers’ hand also so familiar?”

”Look at your memory. Wasn’t this the same hand pattern Brother Lin had in that round that didn’t happen? In golden flower, besides the 2-3-5 of different suits, it’s by default the smallest hand.”

”It really is. I didn’t expect the God of Gamblers to have the smallest hand. Looking at his satisfied expression just now, we thought he had a Set. Who knew it was Brother Lin who had the Set.”

”One can only say that the God of Gamblers has reigned over Macau’s casinos for decades, and this time he’s finally met a strong opponent. He’s lost all the way to the end.”

”Brother Lin is awesome. He won a hundred billion in less than half a day. Poor God of Gamblers, he’s back to square one in an instant.”

”The God of Gamblers looks quite traumatized; he’s even talking nonsense. One is the highest, the other is the lowest. Where’s the draw?”

”By the way, those who bet on the God of Gamblers to win, hand over the money.”

”...”

On this side, Chen Qing also felt more and more that something was wrong as he listened.

”What smallest hand in golden flower? What back to square one?”

His hand was clearly a Set too.

At this moment, he finally turned his gaze to his own cards.

After seeing the cards clearly, his gaze froze instantly, and he almost cried out.

”2 of Diamonds, 4 of Hearts, 5 of Spades... What’s going on? He had confirmed repeatedly before showing the cards that his hand had indeed been successfully swapped for three Aces of Spades.”

That’s why he hadn’t looked at his cards just now, assuming they were three Aces.

How did the cards change on their own?!

From the highest Set to the smallest hand?

How the hell is this possible? It’s like I’m seeing a ghost!”
