Kubo smiled and said confidently, "Then... let's get started!"
The dealer began to deal the cards, the cards drew graceful arcs in the air, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the table.
Kubo picked up his cards, expressionless, just called two and then stopped, as if everything was under control.
Kishimoto's hands were tightly gripping the cards, and sweat was already beading on his forehead.
He also called two cards cautiously, and when the last card appeared in his hand, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, with a look of victory in his eyes.
"I'm sure to win this time!" he thought to himself.
Zhang Chen only called once, and when he turned it over it was a small five.
Although it didn't look good, he still had that unpredictable smile on his face.
"Are you sure you don't want to bid anymore? It's only 5 points, there's still a lot of room for improvement. Don't you want to give it a try?" Kubo asked with a smile, looking like an old fox.
Zhang Chen shook his head slightly and said calmly: "I have already defeated you."
"Oh, young man, you are really impatient." Kubo sneered and turned to Kishimoto and said, "Kishimoto, you go first!"
Kishimoto stood up, threw the cards in his hand on the gambling table excitedly, and shouted proudly: "Haha, I'm 19 points, Ayane is mine!"
The people around let out a sigh of regret, and the bottom card was revealed, which was actually a 9! 14 points plus 9 points, 23 points, it’s already exploded!
"This is impossible!" Kishimoto's face turned pale in an instant, and he grabbed the 9 fiercely as if he wanted to tear it into pieces.
People around started talking and the atmosphere became increasingly tense.
"How is that possible? I saw it was clearly a 5 before!"
Veins bulged on Kishimoto's neck, and he explained angrily to the people around him.
However, everyone around just smiled and said nothing.
I've seen so many scenes in casinos where people get angry and frustrated after losing, and I'm no longer surprised by it.
How can a gambler tell the truth?
What he says is not important. What matters is what the cards are.
"Alas, young man! You are still young after all. Victory and defeat are common in the military. The most important thing is to keep a stable mentality!"
Kubo shook his head slightly and slowly showed his cards.
As soon as he made a move, the spectators around him once again let out a cry of regret and exclamation.
Kubo has a 6 in his hand!
6 plus 16 is 22 points in total, which is also a big one!
Chapter 233 Mixed Blood Princess
From this point of view, Zhang Chen doesn't need to show his cards at all.
Because no matter how big his trump card is, it can’t explode even with 5 points.
Even if it's only 1 point, he wins!
Zhang Chen looked at Kubo and Kishimoto with a smile on his face, his eyes full of mockery and contempt, "Thank you! Asuka, and Seko, right? Let them wash up and wait for me!"
"You are cheating! I..." Kubo's face turned pale and he stood up suddenly. He raised his hand to overturn the table and opened his mouth, but the second half of the sentence seemed to be blocked by something and he couldn't utter a single word.
Kubo's face turned red and the veins on his forehead bulged as if they would burst at any time.
His hands were tightly gripping the edge of the table, his knuckles turning white from the force, and his eyes were burning with anger, but he was powerless to do anything.
When the people around who were watching the fun saw Kubao's appearance, they all took a few steps back, fearing that they would be affected.
Kubo's body froze in place for a while. Finally, he took a deep breath and slowly uttered, "I give up!"
Under the control of the Yellow Hair Agreement, Kubo's stubbornness had no effect at all except to increase his own pain and powerlessness.
Kishimoto's willpower was even weaker. After roaring for a while, he also lowered his head helplessly, "I give up too!"
"Isn't that good!?" Zhang Chen smiled slightly and took control of the situation with ease.
There was a hint of sarcasm in his smile, which made Kubo and Kishimoto even more embarrassed.
The spectators were originally there to watch the fun and flatter General Kubo, but now seeing General Kubo being humiliated, they turned around and left in fear.
In an instant, the casino became much quieter, and the originally bustling scene suddenly became empty.
At this time, a thin Sakura man hurried over and said to them with a serious face:
"Everyone is here. General Kuroda has just convened a meeting. Please attend!"
"I understand!" General Kubo's expression was still gloomy. He nodded, glanced at Zhang Chen, and then walked forward with a dark face.
Kishimoto put his arm around Zhang Chen's shoulders, leaned close to his ear, and whispered:
"It doesn't matter what the woman is. After all, I'm giving it to my brother to play with. I'm not an outsider. Just let me watch from the side!"
"Huh? You have this hobby?" The corner of Zhang Chen's mouth twitched slightly, and his brows frowned, thinking that Kishimoto's hobby was really weird.
Kishimoto chuckled, with a lewd expression on his face, and said in a low voice: "Hey, just keep this to yourself, don't spread it out! If you also have this hobby, I can help you!"
Zhang Chen couldn't help but roll his eyes and said in a cold tone: "I'm normal, I don't have that hobby!"
Seeing that Zhang Chen didn't appreciate it, Kishimoto stopped talking and suddenly became serious. He lowered his voice and reminded him, "By the way, don't forget what I just told you when you propose the proposal later! This is a serious matter!"
"Got it!" Zhang Chen nodded, but he couldn't help feeling a little funny about Kishimoto's serious attitude.
The two followed Kubo, walked through the corridor for a while, and finally arrived at the door of the meeting room.
The conference room was already full of people. When everyone saw General Kuroda come in, they all stood up and saluted General Kuroda and the accompanying royal representative, Princess Kaori.
The moment Zhang Chen saw Princess Kaori, his eyes lit up.
The Princess Kaori in front of him was completely different from the Sakura royal family members he saw on the news.
In order to maintain the purity of their bloodline, the Sakura royal family often engaged in inbreeding, which resulted in a high mortality rate among their offspring. Even when they grew up, most of them were sickly, short in stature, and plain in appearance.
But Princess Kaori is completely different.
She has chestnut curly hair that is slightly shiny, making her look noble and elegant.
Her facial features have some mixed-race characteristics, with a high nose bridge, deep eyes, and slightly upturned corners of her mouth, revealing a faint smile.
She was wearing a professional suit that outlined her graceful figure, the hip skirt showed off her exquisite curves to the fullest, and the black stockings wrapped around her slender legs, revealing a bit of sexiness and mystery.
[Kaori, appearance: S-, initial purity 70, fiancé is Kuroda Muji (son of General Kuroda), who is currently in charge of counting supplies and setting up camp at the port. ]
Seeing Zhang Chen staring straight at Kaori's front and her slender black silk thighs, Kishimoto's mouth twitched and he whispered:
"Hey, don't look directly at the princess. I know what you're thinking. She's not of pure royal blood. She has half of the blood of the Great Mao because her ancestors were murdered by the Great Mao... You know, and her fiancé is Kuroda Muji, a person that neither you nor I can afford to offend!"
Zhang Chen seemed not to hear anything, and still stared at Kaori's round calves and the pair of exquisite high heels.
The corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he couldn't help muttering to himself: "The royal family actually has such a beauty."
Princess Kaori noticed Zhang Chen's burning gaze and a hint of displeasure appeared on her face, but she immediately restrained her emotions. After all, she couldn't easily offend anyone at this time.
Because she represents the interests of the royal family, and the royal family is in decline and completely shrouded in Kuroda's shadow, she now has to win more supporters to fight against Kuroda.
If she offended a congressman just because of her beauty and someone stared at her a few times, the royal family would be in a more difficult situation in the future.
"Okay, today I will mainly report on the current progress of the camp construction, as well as the future work plan for moving to land!"
There was an air of unquestionable determination in General Kuroda's tone.
"I have something to say. Regarding the matter of moving to the mainland, I think everyone should vote! I think it's too arbitrary for you to make such a decision without discussion. After all, this concerns the future of almost all the elites of Sakura, so we must be cautious!"
Hearing this, Kaori coughed lightly, her voice was clear and pleasant.
As soon as she finished speaking, the conference room fell into a brief silence, and there seemed to be a tense atmosphere in the air.
General Kuroda's eyes instantly became more fierce. He slowly raised his head, his eyes as sharp as a hawk's: "Oh? Do you think I'm arbitrary?"
Seeing that it was finally the crucial moment, Kishimoto was about to speak, but suddenly found that Inoue Uya, whom he had been trying to win over, was not there. He couldn't help but be surprised and said, "Huh? Where is Inoue Uya? He is the sheriff of the cruise ship. He also has the right to vote. He should be attending the meeting!"
General Kuroda sneered, his tone was terrifyingly calm, as if he was saying that he had just killed a bug, "Oh, that guy, he has been executed for poor law and order management."
As soon as he finished speaking, the air in the conference room seemed to freeze again, and everyone held their breath.
At the same time, Kuroda slowly raised his eyes and glanced at Kishimoto with sharp eyes, as if he saw through his little trick.
Kishimoto was horrified by that look, his heart was pounding, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he was speechless for a long time.
Chapter 234 Thank you
"So...does anyone have any questions?"
General Kuroda's cold gaze slowly swept across the faces of everyone present.
Except for Kaori's face which still had a trace of solemnity, the military personnel were complacent, while the opposition all lowered their heads, and no one dared to look Kuroda in the eye.
"Now that everyone has no questions, let's start voting! Those who still want to stay on the cruise ship, please raise your hands!"
Kuroda said in a calm tone.
However, beneath this calm, everyone felt the turbulent waves.
The words "stay on the cruise ship" sounded as if we were being abandoned.
Kishimoto lowered his head, not daring to raise it. All the lobbying and promises he had made with Zhang Chen just now were no longer valid at this moment.
Kaori didn't look back. She seemed to have anticipated such a scene. The fact that Kuroda dared to kill people was enough to silence these parliamentarians.
"Um?"
Suddenly, Kuroda, who was originally full of pride, froze in expression, as if he had seen something incredible.
"how?"
Kaori was startled. She turned her head in surprise and looked in the direction Kuroda was looking.
Zhang Chen was seen raising his hand slowly.
This is not over yet. There is still a provocative smile on his face, and his eyes are staring straight at Kuroda, with no sign of backing down.
Look Kuroda in the eyes?
Openly contradicting Kuroda! ?
It is obvious that Inoue Ueya, who had served as a precedent, had already been eliminated, but Zhang Chen still dared to raise his hand?
What's more, in the current situation, most people did not raise their hands, which means that the result of this resolution is beyond doubt.
Raising your hand at this time will not only fail to change the outcome, but will put your situation in danger.
Is this guy crazy?
"Oh? Interesting, you are the only one who opposes our landing, right? Then the minority should obey the majority! Besides, I will remember you! You are a good material for being a soldier!"
Kuroda glanced at Zhang Chen indifferently, as if he was looking at a dead person.
The words "he is a good material for being a soldier" were of course not a compliment to Zhang Chen, but a hint to him that he might be made into cannon fodder in the future!
After the meeting, Kuroda quickly left the meeting room.
Seeing Kuroda leave, the others breathed a sigh of relief.
They communicated with each other as if they had survived a disaster.
But no one spoke to Zhang Chen. Even Kishimoto walked around Zhang Chen as if he was avoiding the plague.
Who would dare to have anything to do with someone who openly stands against Kuroda? Do you think your life is too long? !
Zhang Chen didn't mind either, he smiled slightly.
This is done to anger Kuroda, and Zhang Chen is also confident and not afraid of Kuroda's revenge.
At worst, I can let him bombard the cruise ship. Even under such an attack, I can still survive. What is there to worry about?
What he wanted was for Kuroda to find the guy with psychic powers when he couldn't do anything to him.
Suddenly, a fragrance came.
"Why did you do that?"
A pair of big eyes and a beautiful face appeared in front of Zhang Chen.
Kaori supported her knees with her hands, her hair hanging down, bent over, stared at Zhang Chen curiously and asked.
