Tokyo: Rabbit Police and Her Evil Partner

Chapter 352 Silent Needle

The gamble continues.

Fushimi Shika has 29 chips remaining, and Kitsune has 16 chips remaining.

The arbitrator was surprised at how quickly Fushimi Shika solved the puzzle. Everyone turned around and looked at Gen Tamaki. It was she who had just insisted that she "would win", which meant that she had also figured out the specific rules. Gen Tamaki explained, and Fujiwara Hō was confused. Only Ye Xingqi suddenly realized.

“That means, even if we understand the rules, we are still in the hell of gambling.” Ye Xingqi sighed.

That’s right, the more you think about it, the more painful it is.

After Fushimi Shika regained consciousness, bubbles all over his body were dense and chaotic, his hair was flying upright, and his oxygen consumption during breathing was increasing further!
Combining the remaining six cards on the field and the remaining 32 invisible playing cards, putting together all the remaining card types, and also considering the suits of the playing cards, undoubtedly requires an extremely terrifying amount of thinking - inferring the rules is one thing, and using the rules is another.

On the other side, Fox Princess' oxygen consumption is also soaring!

She also figured out the rules of the competition!

The oxygen consumption of both people increased simultaneously, and they fell into the hell of thinking and gaming together. It was as if a bunch of effervescent tablets were thrown into the glass cabin. The bubbles kept blending and bursting, and the water surface was surging like boiling water.

They replaced the air chips at the same time. This was the third chip consumed by Kitsunehime and the fourth chip consumed by Fushimi Shika. They had 12 and 25 chips left respectively!
The most important thing right now is to analyze which card is the biggest. The biggest hand that can be split from the 47 in Fox's hand is a "Royal Flush", which is A, 10, J, Q, K of diamonds!

The size is clear, but are the cards enough?

Recalling the previous two rounds of games, 20 playing cards had already been used up. She expected a straight flush against four of a kind in the first round and a full house against four of a kind in the second round, but it was just a guess at best, and there were other possibilities...

The arbitrator is counting down, and there is little time left to think!
Think about it from another angle. No cards above 10 have been played yet, and the Ace has used up 3 cards, with only one left, which can barely make a royal flush...

But if you don’t get a full house in the second round, but three aces, then there are no aces in the deck, and you can’t make a royal flush at all…

At this moment, Kitsune subconsciously raised her head and looked across the wooden table. Fushimi Shika had calmed down at some point. He had already played his cards, and the metal cards were quietly placed on the table.

Has he made up his mind?

Then I also...

Kitsune raised her cards and was about to put them down when she suddenly realized something and her right hand remained suspended in the air.

Slow down, slow down...

If I were him, what would I do?
In the next three games, he only needs to win one game; now he will never raise the bet blindly, but use the "trump" in his hand to win the game without any risk!

What I need to consider is to judge the timing of his trump card so as to use my trump card to kill him!

The big names will definitely be stronger in the later stages of the game...

So, is this card on the table a trump card or just a bluff?
The thirty-second limit passed in a flash, and Fox Princess gently placed the cards on the table. In this round, she actually consumed an air chip and had to open another chip to replenish oxygen. The consumption was already on par with her opponent!
Both of them opened their cards at the same time, Fushimi Shika had 45, and Kitsune had 47!

The complete rules have been revealed, and the onlookers can't wait to know the result and who has the bigger card.

Night Walk Seven asked the staff to bring a screen to block the view of the contestants in the glass cabin. He took apart a deck of playing cards, laid them on the ground, and quickly analyzed the possible card patterns that could be formed by the numbers.

Morimu Yalan and the others ignored their previous grudges and came over to watch. The camera focused on Ye Xingqi's hands as he quickly opened and arranged the cards. His movements were as smooth as those of a con man in a movie. He deduced all the possibilities of the three rounds...

"Is this really something that can come up with results within thirty seconds?" Fujiwara Takashi exclaimed.

Moriki Yalan's idea is very simple. "45" is a multiple of 5, which is a number that can form a straight. If there are any remaining suits, it can form a straight flush.

45除以5得出平均值为9，那么最大牌型就是将5张的中间值加2，小牌则向下减2……

"No, that's not right..."

Yuan Yuzi stared at the cards. She had already predicted the result. Night Walker Seven sped up his hand speed and finally found that 8 and 9 had been used up in the first round. The second largest card type of 45 was four Js!

However, the biggest hand with 47 is a Royal Flush!

When Fox Girl solves the rules, it is inevitable that the trump card will be used immediately. If the small cards are used first, the card pool will be consumed, resulting in the inability to make up the subsequent big cards into a straight flush or other hand pattern.

But Fushimi Shika figured out the rules one step ahead. It seemed like he could see all the cards in his opponent's hand and predict the opponent's highest card value in advance. He set a trap with 45 and fished out the opponent's trump card "47" just to keep the real trump card "25"!
Immediately afterwards, without waiting for everyone to sort out the cards, Fox Princess had already placed her bet. Thirty seconds was not even enough for them to see the situation clearly!
Looking at the two chips pushed onto the table, Fushimi Shika frowned.

Why didn't she top up with three chips?

If it's just a test, one chip would be enough, right?

Why two of them? Fushimi Shika suddenly realized something. He raised his head and glanced at the screen outside the glass cabin. At the same time, Night Walker 45 finally deduced all the possibilities of . Everyone exclaimed in amazement, and the arbitrator quickly reminded the contestants to place their bets within the time limit!

He looked at Fox Princess, who met his gaze, and he suddenly realized that Fox Princess was inviting him.

'Use five chips to verify your guess', 'There's still room for maneuver even if you lose', 'You haven't completely mastered the complete rules'... He could even guess what Fox Princess wanted to say.

Fushimi Shika pondered for a moment, chose to call with two chips, and did not raise any more!

Ten seconds later, the arbitrator announced that "47" won!
The next second, a row of spotlights lit up in the pure white square, focusing on the glass cabin. Alarm bells rang loudly, and a cold electronic voice sounded on the radio:

"The natural disaster phase has been triggered!"

Before everyone could react, the porthole on the top of the glass cabin opened, and a figure jumped into the water. The arbitrator stood between Kitsune and Fushimi Shika!

According to the rules of the gambling game, once special conditions are triggered and a natural disaster strikes, the loser will be charged an amount equal to the amount of chips he lost!

In front of everyone, the arbitrator released five of Fushimi Shika's chips one after another, which means that the latter lost ten chips at once! !
The camera focuses on the two types of cards played by Night Walker Seven. Whether it is Kitsune's Royal Flush or Fushimi Shika's Four Js, both require A and J!

There can't be a fifth A or J in a deck of cards, which means the cards are being reused!
This is the condition that triggers a natural disaster!

--hateful!
Fushimi Shika pounded the table angrily, almost madly, and anyone could see that he was extremely angry.

If he doesn't know the outcome of this round, he won't be sure whether card 25 has been used; in addition, if the natural disaster has been triggered, who will use the duplicate card?

Fushimi Shika verified the speculation, but he did not anticipate the natural disaster. It was also impossible for Kitsune Princess to use the natural disaster to set a trap. In other words, "luck" was on Kitsune Princess' side again!

While thinking, Fushimi Shika ran out of oxygen again and had to replace the air chips.

At this time, the chip ratio between the two sides was 19:17, and he fell behind again.

Now that they have figured out the specific rules of the fight and the triggering mechanism of the heavenly punishment, the only remaining question in this gambling game is what happened in the dozen seconds from the time the bet was placed to the time the arbitrators decided the winner...

Why do we have to wait more than ten seconds every time to determine the winner?

Whose instructions are the arbitrators taking?
What does this time lag mean?
Is the combination of the cards done by a computer?

The crowd watching kept thinking.

……

While the two men were fighting fiercely on the field, a cruel gamble was also taking place at the bottom of the Pure White Square.

The arbitrator who executed the natural disaster climbed out of the glass cabin, walked quickly downstairs, pushed open an iron door, and a strong smell of blood hit him in the face.

There was a shadowless lamp hanging from the ceiling of the room, and two bloody people were tied to the operating table, with a layer of white curtain hanging in the middle to separate the two people. A man in sterile clothes stood aside and slowly pulled out the long needle from the bloody people.

He is the second-ranked designer, Ninomiya Kino.

The two bloody men lying on the operating table were Takusa Kazama and Master Hui Sikong.

There was a communication device in the corner of the room, and the voice of another arbitrator was coming out: "In the third round, the winner is Miss Fox Princess!"

Just now, Takusai Kazama used "45" to form four Js consisting of Spade J, Club J, Heart J, Diamond J and Heart Ace; and Master Hui Sikong formed a Royal Flush of Hearts, which triggered the natural disaster!

That’s right, the complete rules of the gambling game are that the two parties underwater choose numbers, and the two parties in the operating room have to form a hand within 60 seconds!

This is Ninomiya Kimino’s genius design!
Both Fengjian Takusai and Master Hui Sikong had no objection, and thus a double-layer gambling game was established!

Only Takusai Kazama knows the number of cards that Fushimi Shika played. Similarly, only Master Hui Sikong knows the number of cards that Kitsune Princess played!
Each player can only use one deck of playing cards. The duel can only last for five rounds. The players need to form a hand pattern within 60 seconds. If the timeout occurs, the combination is wrong, or the cards that have already been used are used, the player will be deemed the loser on the spot!
If two people violate the rules at the same time, a natural disaster will be triggered!

Since the cards are opened first and then the bets are placed, this means that before the winner is determined, Takusa Kazama and Master Hui Sikong below do not know what numbers the other party is going to put together, so it is very likely that they are using the same card!
The chips betting above are air chips, and similarly, the loser below also has to pay the "penalty" for failure.

This is the punishment carried out by Ninomiya Kino himself, a secret technique introduced from China, a variation of acupuncture: using silver needles dipped in medicine to pierce specific acupuncture points can cause extremely intense pain, making the prisoner unable to make any sound due to the intense pain, so it is also called "silent needle".

In routine interrogation applications, just one shot is enough to make someone's life worse than death.

More than three injections would cause a mental breakdown in an average person.

If five needles are administered consecutively, it will cause damage to internal organs and cause death from severe pain.
