I bought some fried chicken nuggets, but before I got home, a speeding motorcycle passed by me. Just as Naoki dodged it, another motorcycle came at me at high speed from behind. I couldn't dodge it in time, so I fell backwards to the ground, and the fried chicken nuggets I had just bought fell to the ground.
Seeing the delicious fried chicken scattered all over the ground without being eaten, Naoki's heart was broken, and his usually gentle tone became sharp, and he cursed at the motorcycle that just drove past.
"You're still speeding on such a narrow road, aren't you afraid of death?"
Well, this is too unlucky.
Naoki angrily picked up the fried chicken on the ground, threw it into the trash can, and walked home.
She hated these street thugs the most.
…………
However, bad luck was yet to come.
When Naoki saw a group of burly thugs in their twenties and thirties standing casually but with a ruffian air gathered in front of his house, he collapsed again.
All her things were thrown out, and her desk, bag and other miscellaneous items filled the entire yard.
Seeing her come back, the leader with slicked back hair said with a grin, "Utsugi Naoki, right? Your parents owed our company a large sum of money. They had no money to repay the debt and have already run away. We can only legally seize all the real estate under their name to pay off the debt."
As he spoke, the man with the slicked-back hair took out a stamped document to prove that their forced demolition was legal and compliant.
Well, now Naoki really couldn't bring himself to curse anymore.
But why, why am I so unlucky! I never thought that my parents, whom I have never met, would owe someone money and run away one day.
Naoki squatted at the door, her mood still not calming down. If the system hadn't appeared, she would be miserable now, with no money and no place to live.
Luckily, I still have 100 million yen left from opening a blind box, so I can rent a place for the time being. Or should I just move into the college dormitory?
However, the dormitory price of Baihuawang Academy is unaffordable for most people, so it is more cost-effective to live outside.
Just as she was thinking about her future plans, the man with the slicked-back hair coughed and said, "Little girl, we do this for work, but you look like you won't have anywhere to go in the future."
"If you need money, I can show you a way."
Before the man with the slicked-back hair could finish his words, a motorcycle stopped at the gate of the yard. Naoki looked up and saw that it was the troublemaker who had just caused his fried chicken to fall to the ground.
But she didn't have time to get angry about such a small thing right now.
The man sneered, took off his helmet, and got out of the car, watching everything in front of him with interest: "Wow, is your house going to be demolished? What bad luck, there is no place to live."
"Hey, you don't really believe this guy's way of making money, do you? With all due respect, given your current situation, the only way to make money is to serve an old woman..."
This person had a tone of gloating, but the hidden meaning of his words did not make sense.
Naoki stared blankly at the person in front of him who was dressed like a bad girl with short hair and lip piercings and earrings. The broken hair on her forehead was just reaching her eyes.
He was about to confront her, but when he saw the words "conquerable" next to her, Naoki took his words back.
As an important character, Shimamo is a must-attack character.
She herself is very rich, but she doesn't take money seriously at all.
So, my luck is pretty good. At least in the academy, I definitely cannot actively contact people like Sheng Zhima Wang.
Seeing that Sheng Zhimowang had directly pointed out his words, the man with the slicked-back hair felt very embarrassed and could not help but said angrily: "Stop meddling in other people's business!"
"I don't care. I'm just watching the fun. You guys continue."
This guy's words really deserve a beating.
Naoki:......
The man with the slicked-back hair originally wanted to shoo the woman away, but when he saw that there were four other girls following her, who looked like bikers and seemed not to be easily provoked, he gave up.
Naoki looked at the favorability panel of Nakashima Mo, which showed a capital 0. Well, she believed that this guy was really just here to watch the fun.
"So, what is the way to make money you are talking about?" Naoki looked at the man with the slicked-back hair.
The man with the slicked-back hair was stunned for a moment, then said, "I'm not lying to you. For someone like you with no education and no talent, there are only two ways to make money quickly."
"Well, one is to serve an old woman like she said. With your looks, you can make 1 or 2 yen a night. If you meet a generous woman, you can even make more."
That's quite honest.
"Another way is to gamble, but it's not just ordinary gambling."
The man with the slicked-back hair coughed again and lowered his voice, "Our boss likes to watch people gamble. Many people owe him money. As long as he wins, the debt will be written off."
"But I advise you not to choose it, because it's a game of gambling with your life. At the very least, you'll end up with mutilated limbs, and at the worst, you'll die. It's a gamble only people with nowhere else to go would participate in."
Sheng Zhima came over excitedly: "There is such a gambling, let me join in too."
The man with the slicked-back hair vaguely felt that the woman was not in a good mental state, so he retorted: "You don't owe us any money, so you have no right."
However, Naoki understood the real meaning of the man with slicked back hair. Although he was apparently persuading her not to go, he was actually tempting her to go.
Selling sex to an old woman only earns 10,000 yuan a night. I don't know how many nights it will take to earn back the money. If I gamble, as long as I win, all my debts will be written off immediately.
If I really have no other choice, I might choose this.
However, I still have one million yen on me, so I am not without a way out.
but……
Seeing that Nakashima Wang is so excited, it would be a shame not to take the opportunity to improve her favorability and get to know her.
"Well, go and join in. I really want to see it. How about I give you one million whether you win or lose?" Naoshima took the initiative to encourage Naoki.
You really are rich.
Looking at her remaining two experience points, Naoki decided to draw a card. If she couldn't draw the right card, forget it. She didn't want to lose her life.
Click to draw a card!
System: Congratulations to the host for drawing the special ability card "Perspective". After using this card, you will have the ability of perspective in the next gambling game.
Although it is a good gambling card, I am not sure if it will be useful in this kind of game.
Draw another one, if you don’t win, just give up.
System: Congratulations, host, for drawing the special ability card "Guaranteed." Your earnings may fluctuate in your next bet, but you will definitely not be in debt in the end. (This card is a guaranteed card; the final payout will be equal to or greater than your bet.)
Naoki's pupils dilated slightly. On the surface, the guaranteed card seemed to be a useless card, but if it was a game where you gambled your life, the guaranteed card could be considered a god card.
…………
"I didn't expect that you would actually agree."
Naoki sat on the back seat of Ikki Shima's motorcycle, not knowing how things turned out like this. The other party personally took her to the casino.
"Because I don't have any money, and didn't you say you'd give me a million even if I lost? I can still bear it even if it means breaking my arm or something."
Sheng Zhimo laughed loudly: "That's right, it can still be connected within six hours, don't worry."
For people like this who value money more than their lives, Sheng Zhimawang does not think that they are greedy for money. Instead, he thinks that this person has a very generous character, which is in line with his own aesthetic and is very interesting.
After all, there are many people in this world who love money, but very few are willing to risk their lives for it.
System: Sheng Shimawang’s favorability towards you has increased by five points.
Naoki quietly looked at Nakashima's character panel, and gritted his teeth after seeing the other party's talent.
Sheng Zhimawang: Overall Gambling Ability Assessment: Grade A. Special Talent: Nine Lives, One Death. When participating in gambling games that threaten one's life, one's luck is enhanced to over 90% winning rate.
That’s right, in the world of crazy gambling, some people have special abilities that are invisible to outsiders.
And Sheng Zhimawang's talent is to gamble with her life, even if she herself does not know it.
Otherwise, considering this guy just pointed a gun at himself for no reason, most people would have been killed long ago.
…………
Naoki was sent by Ikushima to the gambling place mentioned by the man with the slicked-back hair, a dark warehouse.
A group of men in black came forward to confirm Naoki's identity as a contestant, then looked at Nakashima and said, "Who is this person? No unauthorized persons are allowed to enter the venue."
At this time, the man with slicked-back hair came out with a flattering smile on his face: "The boss said that she can go in and watch. This is the daughter of the Shima family. If you didn't recognize her just now, please don't take it to heart."
Nakashima was invited to the VIP entrance by the man with slicked back hair, while Naoki had to be taken into the warehouse door alone by the man in black.
The warehouse was dark but felt very large. Naoki was pulled to sit in front of a gambling table, and then a staff member pulled her left hand into a machine that looked like a metal fingertip, and fixed her wrists and arms with handcuffs on the table.
Looking at this thing that looked like a torture device, Naoki had already vaguely guessed what the gamble was about.
It's horrible.
If it weren't for the guaranteed card, she would never have come.
Even with the card, she still panicked when she saw it.
Under the dim light, Naoki could only roughly see the appearance of his opponent, who was a very tall man.
However, in this situation, even the tallest person would panic.
The man on the other side was no exception. He twisted his body in fear and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Since you've chosen to gamble, it means you're ready. It's too late to give up now."
The processed sound came out from the loudspeaker.
"The game we're playing today is simple. It's Blackjack, and I think everyone has played it before. But the stakes aren't chips, they're your fingers. Every time you lose, you cut off a finger. There are five fingers in total. Whoever loses all their fingers first loses."
After hearing the rules of the game, Naoki cursed them as perverts, because even if the winner won, he might have lost a few fingers in the previous rounds.
To win without any damage you have to win five rounds in a row.
This is basically impossible.
Chapter 4: The Excited Sengshima
In the VIP room, when Sheng Zhimo saw some familiar faces that his parents had taken him to see in the past, he completely understood where the capital for these illegal gambling games came from.
Rich people who want excitement but are afraid of hurting themselves find it fun to watch poor people who are heavily in debt gamble their lives.
…………
At the gambling table, although Naoki was a little panicked, he was not too panicked when he thought of the function of the guaranteed card.
Until, Sheng Zhimo rushed down.
"Hey!" Ikushima slammed his hand on the gambling table. "You guys are playing with your fingers, right? It doesn't matter whose it is, so let me use your hand instead."
There was excitement in Sheng Zhima's voice and expression.
Naoki was bewildered when he heard this.
Seeing her dazed look, Sheng Zhimawang sneered, "Hey, what are you daydreaming about? I'll let you bet on my finger. This way, you have no risk at all. Isn't that good?"
No, that's really not good. My guaranteed card has already been used. If I don't take any risk, then the guaranteed return on the card is greater than or equal to 0.
In other words, it's the same as not using it.
Although she felt an indescribable sense of defeat, she thought that Nakashimamo was a captureable character, and that she really enjoyed participating in this kind of game. If she rejected her, she would definitely...
"Well, even if I wanted to agree, the organizers would definitely..."
"The boss said yes."
Naoki:......
Naoshima sat next to Naoki with great interest and let the staff lock his hands.
Normally, because of her family background, no one would dare to play this game with her. Only in this kind of underground casino dominated by capital, would she have a chance.
…………
There was nothing that could be done to reverse the situation, and Naoki could only watch the gambling game officially begin.
An emotionless synthesized voice boomed over the loudspeaker: "I believe you all know blackjack, but before the game begins, we still need to formally explain the rules."
"At the beginning of the game, each player is dealt two cards. The first one is face up, which is the visible card, and the second one is face down, which is the hidden card."
"The winning rule is that the player whose total points on all their cards are closer to 21 wins. An Ace can be counted as either 1 or 11, so an AK is the strongest blackjack."
"After the two initial cards are dealt, both players take turns asking for cards, stopping when they feel they have enough. If the number of points on the card exceeds 21 after asking for cards, the player busts and loses the round immediately."
"When both players stand, the flop determines the winner."
The rules are the same as regular blackjack, except for the things being bet.
Naoki looked at the already excited Nakashima Mo. Anyway, this guy had the special talent of "Nine Lives and One Death", so even if there was no card blessing, it should... not matter.
Moreover, she came forward on her own initiative.
