He had just married a policewoman when he was diagnosed with criminal genius.
Chapter 9 Discovering the Underground Casino
Jiang Xue's words resonated with everyone.
Because Lu Chen consistently won by exactly one point each time, everyone was convinced he was cheating. But what happened during the actual game?
The bookmakers' methods will only become more covert, making you lose everything without even realizing it, and you'll think you were just unlucky.
The chat room exploded with comments.
"Terrifying...it's terrifying."
"This isn't gambling, it's practically handing money over to them!"
"I didn't realize it before, but now I know how treacherous gambling is."
"The policewoman is absolutely right—when you run into a master like Brother Lu, he has a million ways to beat you without you even noticing."
"Damn it! From now on, I'll never tolerate gambling or drugs again!"
"You didn't mention Huang at all."
"Anyone who gambles again is a fool!"
"Anyone want to gamble? See this bank account? Transfer money to Waterdrop Crowdfunding, saving you the middleman steps."
"Haha, the gentleman above is truly righteous—he should really donate the money."
"Having heard so many anti-gambling campaigns, this time I truly felt how terrible gambling is."
Looking at the scrolling comments in the live stream, Ding Jianguo's mouth was practically stretched to his ears.
He knew that this anti-gambling publicity campaign was a sure thing.
The publicity effect was fantastic.
Jiang Xue's concluding remarks, which highlighted the theme, elevated the entire event. The reactions from netizens demonstrate just how successful this unconventional publicity campaign was.
Ding Jianguo rose through the ranks from the grassroots level and participated in countless anti-gambling and anti-gambling operations.
He knew better than anyone that such propaganda might not be of much use to seasoned gamblers.
But for ordinary people who have never been exposed to gambling, its effects are immeasurable.
He can't guarantee anything else, but he dares to say: ordinary people who watched this live broadcast will definitely never gamble again.
After all, nobody's stupid; no one would give away money for nothing.
This live broadcast could potentially save ten, a hundred, or even a thousand broken families in the future.
This is the true meaning of the "Clean Breeze Bans Gambling" campaign.
Lu Chen and Jiang Xue have exceeded their mission expectations this time.
"This Lu Chen... he really is a talent." Ding Jianguo leaned back in his chair and couldn't help but sigh.
Unfortunately, this skill isn't a legitimate skill.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be a bad idea to have Lu Chen work as an auxiliary police officer in the bureau.
He had heard that Lu Chen hadn't found a suitable job yet and was currently unemployed at home.
...
At the same time, Lu Chen was following Wang Qiang at a distance of less than 100 meters.
To prevent Wang Qiang from recognizing him, he used a skill he had never used before—the Thousand Faces Disguise Technique.
He quickly bought a piece of clothing at a roadside supermarket and grabbed a few cosmetics, transforming his appearance in no time.
This was the first time he had used this skill.
I thought I'd never need it in my life, but I never expected it to come in handy so soon.
What surprised him even more was that the skill's effect was even more incredible than he had imagined.
Not only his face, but his body shape also changed in an instant.
At this moment, even if Jiang Xue stood in front of him, he probably wouldn't recognize her.
In this way, he wouldn't have to worry about being discovered by Wang Qiang.
Lu Chen followed Wang Qiang for a while, and then Wang Qiang got on a bus. Lu Chen reluctantly followed him.
Fortunately, the distance was close enough that Wang Qiang did not notice at all that the middle-aged man with a slightly hunched figure and an ordinary face in the corner of the carriage was the "God of Gamblers" who had just dominated the square.
Throughout the journey, Lu Chen kept a close eye on Wang Qiang.
He noticed that Wang Qiang's gaze kept wandering, and his fingers were unconsciously making counting motions.
The anxiety in his eyes became increasingly obvious.
Lu Chen became even more certain that, given this guy's state, he was definitely going to gamble right away.
Wang Qiang got out of the car, and Lu Chen followed closely behind.
He looked around. This was a village-like area in Yuhua District, densely packed with old residential buildings, with winding roads and a completely haphazard layout.
This terrain perfectly meets the requirements for underground casinos: nestled deep within buildings, facilitating hiding and escape.
Soon, Wang Qiang stopped at the entrance of a secluded alley.
He, who had been walking hurriedly, suddenly stopped, and for the first time ever, took out a cigarette and lit it.
Lu Chen's heart skipped a beat. He realized that with the "King of Gamblers" skill, he was not only proficient in various cheating techniques and familiar with the psychology of gamblers, but he also had a thorough understanding of the operation mode of underground casinos.
This system... is it trying to make me gamble and also let me run my own casino?
He dismissed the absurd idea and began to observe intently.
He quickly realized that Wang Qiang was checking if there was a tail behind him.
Lu Chen didn't make any rash moves. He found a secluded corner and hid there, while quickly surveying the surrounding terrain.
A van was parked at the intersection, its windows covered with dark privacy film.
According to Lu Chen's guess, these people were probably sentries from the casino.
If any police officers or suspicious persons approach, they will be notified immediately.
The casino's counter-surveillance awareness was stronger than he had imagined.
After finishing his cigarette, Wang Qiang turned and went into the alley, walking to an iron gate that looked like an abandoned factory.
He raised his hand and knocked three times, paused for two seconds, and then knocked twice more.
A small crack was opened in the door, revealing a pair of wary eyes.
"Who?"
"Brother Zhou, it's me." Wang Qiang said with a smile.
The small window slammed shut, and then the iron gate creaked open a crack. Wang Qiang glanced left and right, then slipped inside.
Lu Chen witnessed everything from the shadows.
He discovered another hidden clue: a "runner" not far away, jogging back and forth in the vicinity, seemingly exercising, but actually keeping watch.
By now, Lu Chen was 90% certain that this place was a casino.
But he still needs to take one last step to confirm.
After all, if there's a mistake, it would be a false police report.
But getting in through the main entrance is almost impossible. These kinds of places are frequented by regulars or people introduced by regulars.
Unfamiliar faces simply cannot get in.
Lu Chen had to admit that the security measures at this establishment were quite impressive. If he hadn't followed a gambler here, he wouldn't have discovered this place at all.
But he had to go in.
He went around to the back of the factory.
There was a small river behind it, and an inconspicuous iron gate by the river, with a simple wooden ladder at the entrance.
Lu Chen recognized it at a glance; it was an emergency escape route reserved by the casino.
It is also the weakest point in the defense.
He observed for a moment and found that gamblers were indeed entering and exiting through the back door. It seemed that going through this door would not arouse suspicion.
But before he could go in, he had to report to his superiors.
After all, once inside, there's probably no chance to notify the outside.
Lu Chen took out his phone and dialed a number.
"Honey, it's me."
