Chapter 3181 Miss Goder: First Meeting

"So we have to gamble with time, right?"

So Xia De knew that he would definitely miss Miss Gold's visit. He could leave now, but he didn't know when he would be able to come back, and the end of the year was approaching, so he didn't want to leave such a hidden danger at home.

However, he really didn't have anything more suitable than time to bet at this moment. He would not gamble with his own lifespan, ability, soul, etc. If it wasn't necessary, he wouldn't use this because he hated gambling:

"My stakes are low, so now I just want to know how to prevent people who show up at my house from mistakenly entering here again."

Now that it has been confirmed that there is indeed a hidden door on the first floor, as long as this door can be guaranteed not to cause other accidents, Xia De will have plenty of time to deal with this matter later.

The bald man replied:

"There are many ways that can work, but there are also simple and difficult ways. How much can you afford to bet?"

Shade tried:

"Is this dress of mine okay?"

The man at the other end of the gambling table smiled and said nothing, so Xia De had no choice but to say:

"It'll still take two hours."

Seeing that the other party still didn't speak, Xia De continued to raise the bet:

"Three hours."

"Okay, same rules."

He pointed to the remaining deck of cards:

"There's no need to cut the cards this time, so how many cards do we need to stop the game?"

The noisy sounds in the mist formed a nearly perfect background sound, which could stimulate people to become more excited. After the first game of cards, Shade already understood that fate could flip to any side of the coin, and his guess was meaningless.

Therefore, he thought for a long time based on his feelings, and then said softly:

"Still two no, sorry, three."

"It doesn't matter. You can change your decision at will before the cards are revealed."

Three cards were taken out and then slid to Shade's direction one by one by the bald man. The first card was Moon 3, the second was Sun 5, and the third was Sun 1. The total of the three cards was only 9 points, and Shade obviously lost.

"Then do you want to continue? You have enough chips, you can definitely play another round."

The bald man asked again, and Shade threw the three cards in front of him into the discard area. He was wondering why there was no rule of "you can only bet on the same thing once" here, but now after losing a game, he completely understood that setting a rule of not betting continuously in the casino was simply a sign of dislike for his own earnings.

Three hours had passed, so now it was one o'clock on Monday afternoon after Xia De went out. There was no need to worry about Mia's meal, as there would definitely be a girl at home in the afternoon, but she really missed the meeting with Miss Gode.

When Xia De stood at this moment and looked back at the series of events today, he himself couldn't tell what led to all these results. Was it the so-called "fate" or was it simply that he wanted too much?

He did not choose to turn around and leave:

"Go ahead, three more."

The bald man slid the three cards over one by one again, and each card stopped very accurately in the rectangular square area drawn on the table carpet in front of Shade. This is also the position for placing each card in the professional Rhodes gambling table.

Xia De turned over the three cards one by one. In the process, he felt the rapid beating of his heart caused by playing cards for the first time in a long time.

Flowers 9, Flowers 5, Sun 3. A total of 17 points, Xia De won the third game.

He let out a long sigh and agreed with his own opinion again - gambling is really not a good thing:

"So how can I prevent others from being affected by the [Fate Casino] like me?"

The bald man in a tuxedo held the table with both hands:

“The simplest method is to roll 13 six-sided dice every morning after waking up or before entering your house. If all 13 dice are 1, then it is best not to appear in that house today.

It should be noted that all 1 points do not necessarily mean that you will be affected by this casino. This is not a method to enter here, but 13 1 points means that the probability of entering here is relatively high. Of course, although the door is hidden on the first floor, the range of influence of that door is not just the flat area. "

Shade thought for a moment:

"But my cat can't roll dice, how can I keep him safe?"

"So do you want to continue our game? Maybe you are curious about more information about this casino, maybe you want to master it thoroughly, or maybe you have some problems in life that need to be solved. Everyone has their own troubles, and this is a place where you can change your destiny."

Xia De shook his head firmly:

"It certainly won't be the last time I come here, but at least now I'm going home."

The bald man was not surprised. He just said the same farewell words as the old gentleman last time:

"When you are ready to use everything you have to seek the possibility of a change in your fate, the [Fate Casino] will definitely open its doors for you. Or, Ouroboros will guide you in the right direction."

Although he knew that this was not a real person, Xia De still waved to him. As he turned and walked back into the fog he had come from, he asked in his heart:

"What can I do here by sacrificing a drop of divinity? What are the special rules?"

She replied gently:

[Stranger, limited by the rules here, only when you enter through the door normally can you learn the special rules here. ]

[You are now just a guest invited by fate, not a player who takes the initiative to step into fate. ]

The noisy sounds of the casino behind him became fainter and fainter, and after Xia De took a step forward, the white mist dispersed as suddenly as it appeared.

"I still didn't get to meet Miss Goder after all."

The scenery on the first floor of the house reappeared around me, but unlike when I left just now, Emilia, Carina, and Luvia were all on the first floor. Tifa and the high-ranking maids seemed to be searching the room, and the witch was still discussing something fiercely with Luvia the moment Shade appeared.

“Meow!”

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The cat on the coffee table seemed to have springs installed on its legs. It shot towards Xia De and was caught by him.

The girls who heard the cat's cry also noticed Shade who suddenly appeared on the first floor. Seeing that Mia was so close to him, they knew that he was definitely not fake. Luvia opened her arms and hugged him, while Carina asked worriedly:

"Shad, where have you been? Miss Gold came to visit at eleven o'clock, but you were not at home, so Emilia, who happened to be here, received her."

Emilia was still in the form of a "great elf". When she was looking for Shade just now, she had obviously used the power of the chosen one:

"I saw that you didn't bring Mia with you, so I thought you were just going out temporarily, so I helped you temporarily entertain the very beautiful and warm Miss Gode."

Emilia had heard many people talk about Miss Mia's real owner, so she also knew who Miss Mia Gold was.

"We waited for half an hour but you didn't come back, so I wondered if something happened to you, so I asked Mia where you had been, and it took me to the living room on the first floor."

The blonde elf girl pulled at Shade's sleeve, as if she was worried that he would disappear again:

"Ajelina once told me that I could contact her through the flower shop on Silver Cross Avenue, so I went to Ajelina for help, and Ajelina notified Miss Carina."

"When Carina left the Yodel Palace and came here, she first asked Leicia to inform Dorothy to come and help find you, and then she sent someone to the association to inform me, so I came here too."

Luvia finally let go of Shade:

"What happened?"

"Don't worry, it's not a dangerous thing. But before I tell you the story, no one should move. Yes, everyone, including Tifa and the others. Luvia, do you have thirteen dice? I mean the six-sided dice."

The fortune teller felt puzzled, but still nodded:

"Although I use cards most often for divination, I also carry dice with me, and they don't take up much space."

She took out the small bag of dice and then threw out thirteen dice as Shade requested. After finding that the points were not the same, Shade asked everyone including the maids to throw the dice. The good news was that there was no situation where all the points were 1.

Xia De finally breathed a sigh of relief. After briefly describing the "Casino of Destiny", he was about to ask everyone to sit down on the second floor for a detailed explanation, but he suddenly asked:

"Carina, you just said that Leicia asked Dorothy to come here as well? Where did she go? Let her come over and throw the dice as well."

The witch pointed upstairs:

"Of course Dorothy is upstairs helping you entertain the guests. Although it is important to find you, Luvia said that your life will definitely not be in danger, so we must leave someone to talk to the guests, right? Otherwise, it would be very rude."

Xia De didn't react and blinked:

"Guest? Who is visiting me and needs to be entertained like this? It can't be that Detective Sparrow has been resurrected and is back now, right?"

Luvia couldn't help laughing:

"What are you talking about? Of course it's Miss Goder."

"What?"

Emilia grabbed Shade's sleeve, and the pointy-eared elf girl was very proud of it:

"We waited for you for half an hour in the morning but you didn't come back. Before I contacted Ajelina, Miss Gold said she was leaving, but I remember Ajelina and Iluna said many times that you really wanted to meet Miss Gold, so I took the initiative to let her stay for lunch.

Don't worry, I used a disguise illusion, she can't see that my ears are different from those of humans."

PS: This is not a headline party, you will see it in the next chapter, and today's extra chapter is not considered a break. It is mainly for future readers to see it. This time I really saw it, so don't be so impatient, the author seems to always say this.
