Card maker? No, I'm a mechanic!

Chapter 149 I want to check the cards!

After a brief silence, the crowd erupted in uproar.

The onlookers rubbed their eyes, their faces filled with disbelief.

Who would have thought that this newbie, who was constantly being chased and attacked from beginning to end and whose health bar was never healthy?

How could they win like that?

The few eliminated players had ashen faces and their eyes twitched violently. One of them even slammed his fist on the table and stood up.

"He definitely cheated; there's no way he plays like that!"

It's important to understand that in a game with twenty participants, the accumulated prize pool can be enormous.

As accomplices to the bookmaker, they not only failed to profit, but also lost all their capital.

If I can't deliver the report when I get back, I'll have my hands and feet cut off!

Seeing his almost-cooked duck fly away like this, he was naturally unwilling to accept it.

"Croupier, investigate him! Investigate him now!"

"That kid definitely cheated!"

"Quiet!"

Upon hearing this, the croupier frowned slightly, and his expression became somewhat strange.

Although he felt something was off, when you're in business, rules are rules.

He then took out a palm-sized device and began to carefully scan the sand table.

All eyes in the room were fixed on that device.

However, looking at the constantly flashing device, Jiang Zhe outwardly feigned a tense demeanor.

But deep down, I was as calm as a rock, and even felt a little amused.

"Go ahead and investigate, you'll work yourself to death and still not find anything."

Because the floating cannons are not a form of mental intrusion at all.

It relies on purely physical frequencies to forcibly distort and influence the judgment.

It's like secretly placing an invisible hair on an extremely precise electronic scale.

How could they possibly investigate such a cross-level, dimensional reduction attack?

"Beep—beep—"

A few seconds later, the instrument emitted a steady beep, indicating that everything was normal.

"There are no signs of external mental intrusion, nor any abnormal energy fluctuations."

The dealer checked the equipment, and although his voice was a little hoarse, he still forced himself to announce the result.

"The sand table is fine; this gentleman did not cheat—"

"A valid victory!"

Upon hearing this, the few people in the dimly lit room felt as uncomfortable as if they had swallowed a fly, but there was nothing they could do about it.

After all, their testing device was specially designed by people from the Gear Society.

If someone could operate this silently, their skill level would probably be high enough to get a position in the Star Tower.

Would they really have the time to come to such a small casino to cheat people out of small amounts of money?

"Oh my god, that scared me to death!"

Under the strange and envious gazes of those around him.

Jiang Zhe finally breathed a sigh of relief and slumped into a chair.

"This game is so exciting! I thought I was going to die, but I was so lucky."

He patted his chest and eagerly began to devour the spoils on the table.

"You flatter us, you bosses acknowledge this."

"Bro, you're on a winning streak, wanna play a couple more rounds?"

However, just as Jiang Zhe was about to leave with his backpack, a figure quietly blocked his way.

The newcomer was the same burly man who had led the way earlier.

The next moment, he reached out and grabbed Jiang Zhe's shoulder, saying with a forced smile.

"Bro, you're on a winning streak, wanna play a couple more rounds?"

"The nights in this capital city are still long."

"I'm not coming, I'm not coming."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhe waved his hand and then grabbed the wrist of the big man who was pressing on his shoulder.

"My grandma always said that knowing when to stop is the best policy."

"you----"

The burly man was about to lash out and forcefully pull his hand back, but suddenly realized that he couldn't move!

The hand that gripped his wrist looked ordinary, but it remained as still as an iron clamp.

Even more terrifying was that, at the very moment the two made contact—

"Buzz—"

A surge of spiritual energy flowed from Jiang Zhe's palm directly into the burly man's body.

It should be noted that Jiang Zhe's mental quality is already far superior to that of his peers due to his original feedback.

After his fierce battle with a powerful figure like Raymond a few days ago, his mental strength was further purified.

They have even stepped into the threshold of a level three card master!

"Tick-tock—"

Cold sweat trickled down the big man's forehead.

Three—Level Three Card Master?

"Goodbye!"

Jiang Zhe smiled and released his hand, and even considerately straightened the big man's somewhat disheveled collar.

He then ignored the dim lights who were still trying to figure out what was going on.

With that bulging backpack on his back, he swaggered out of the hall.

Leaving the arcade, I walked through the dimly lit corridor once more.

When I stood on the street of the East District Trading Market again, it was already dark outside.

At this moment, Jiang Zhe was in a very good mood.

"It's so satisfying to take advantage of the deals in the capital!"

He glanced at the heavy backpack.

Not only are there many rare materials here, but I also won a lot of money along the way.

That should be enough for his expenses for the next period of time.

"Now, it's time to go back to the hotel and rest."

However, just as Jiang Zhe was about to take a taxi to leave, he suddenly stopped in his tracks as he passed a stall selling building materials.

Not far away, a somewhat familiar short-haired figure came into view.

She was currently pulling along a young girl with clear eyes who looked naive and inexperienced, and talking incessantly about something.

"Hey girl, let me tell you, this market is a real minefield. You overpaid for these materials!"

"All those shady stalls outside are scams; you've really been ripped off."

That person was Su Su.

At this moment, she was all smiles, saying almost the same lines as before.

"But you're lucky to have met me. Let me take you somewhere."

"There are really good deals there—"

Beside her, the girl in a college uniform who looked delicate and frail was clearly also taken aback by these words and nodded innocently.

"Really? Thank you so much, sister!"

"It's alright, it's alright, just come with me."

Su Su was secretly delighted and pulled the girl towards the alley.

Seeing this, Jiang Zhe couldn't help but touch his chin.

Normally, he might just treat it as entertainment and move on.

But after experiencing the tricks firsthand, he understood them perfectly.

That kind of scheme is not a fair competition at all; it's a complete scam targeting out-of-towners.

Those dim lights were so dark they had no bottom; if a little white rabbit went in, it would be devoured until not even bones were left.

"Forget it, let's just consider it winning money and doing a good deed every day, accumulating some good karma."

Jiang Zhe sighed, then strode forward and grabbed Su Su's arm.

"Ouch, what are you doing—"

Startled by this sudden turn of events, Su Su was about to burst into a tirade.

But when he turned around and saw the person's face clearly, his voice caught in his throat, as if he had seen a ghost.

"You—how did you get out so quickly?"

She stared wide-eyed at Jiang Zhe, looking him up and down.

But not only did this guy come out completely unharmed, his backpack even looked more bulging than before.

This doesn't make sense. Did he actually make a profit?

"Yes, it's really quite nice inside."

Jiang Zhe raised an eyebrow, his tone slightly teasing.

"That's why I was thinking of coming out quickly to thank you properly, wasn't I?"
