The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human?!
Chapter 1411 - 854: Legendary Deliveryman’s Bloody Underpants
Shi Yidao left, and the masked woman came in again.
"Your gambling luck is truly awe-inspiring."
She said.
As the manager of Peace Gambling House, her gambling skills ranked in the top three in the entire Gambling Society, so naturally, she could see that Liu Zheng didn’t cheat.
"It’s just thanks to lucky equipment."
Liu Zheng wasn’t eager to take credit.
"If your own luck isn’t strong, having more lucky equipment is useless."
The masked woman shook her head and said.
"Then I’ll accept your compliment. But gambling luck is not reliable over time; today, I don’t plan to gamble any further."
He thought the masked woman was unhappy with his winning streak, so he said.
"You’re mistaken, it’s just five million; the Gambling Society can afford it. I’m mainly here to ask about the conversation between you and Shi Yidao."
The masked woman said.
"What? Your gambling house is now concerned with the private affairs of guests?"
Liu Zheng retorted.
"We don’t worry about others’ private affairs, but Shi Yidao is different; as his creditor, we have a reason to care."
The masked woman replied.
"Whatever he owes, I paid for him."
He said generously.
"Alright then, Mr. Liu, I’ll be honest; we want to know who exactly is the murderer of Shi Yidao."
Seeing he wouldn’t take the bait, the masked woman had to reveal her intentions.
"As long as it’s not you, what’s the difference? Are you planning to snitch?"
Liu Zheng questioned.
"Certainly not. On the contrary, we have always respected Shi Yidao’s character, otherwise, we wouldn’t have continuously lent him money. If we can identify the real culprit, we are willing to help Shi Yidao seek revenge."
The masked woman said.
"You’re planning to fish in troubled waters and benefit from the opportunity for revenge, aren’t you?"
He saw through the masked woman’s intentions.
"If you say so, I can’t argue against it."
The masked woman admitted.
"I’ve only heard rumors, not tangible evidence. Besides, this kind of matter should be discussed with him directly; I’m just a delivery man."
Liu Zheng said.
"You’re too modest, Mr. Liu. We believe you’re the one pulling all the strings."
The masked woman said in a respectful tone.
"Oh? Have you looked into my background?"
He raised an eyebrow.
This attitude was completely different from before.
"Of course, for a guest who won five million, we want to understand them better. However, we’ve only had limited time, so our knowledge of you is still lacking."
The masked woman replied.
Even the fragmented pieces of information made her uneasy; when did such a figure emerge on the streets of Metropolis?
"I suggest you don’t dig too deep, lest you invite trouble. The dishes haven’t arrived yet—please cancel them, and exchange the remaining chips for cash. I’m leaving."
Liu Zheng said.
"Mr. Liu, are you really not considering this? We’re willing to pay generously."
The masked woman tried to persuade him further.
"No. I never involve my transaction partners in secondary transactions; that’s my principle. Are you exchanging them or not? Otherwise, I’ll keep them as a souvenir; I find your chip design quite charming."
Liu Zheng said while playing with a black chip.
"Exchange them."
The masked woman waved, and the girl with twin ponytails promptly placed a suitcase in front of Liu Zheng.
"This is two hundred sixty thousand, please count." 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
The girl with twin ponytails opened the suitcase, then spoke formally.
"No need, I trust you."
Liu Zheng promptly stored the cash in System Space and winked at the girl with twin ponytails.
"Pfft~"
She couldn’t help but laugh and gave him a playful glare.
"You guys are pretty decent, far better than that demon’s casino on the black market. I won just a few tens of thousands from him, and he started acting petty, no class at all."
Liu Zheng grumbled.
"Indeed, Lord Gambling Snake has proposed multiple times to gamble against that demon, but he always refused."
The masked woman agreed.
"Really? Well, if he ever agrees, make sure to inform me; I’d love to see the spectacle."
He instructed.
If the demon loses, he could land a few blows on the fallen foe.
"Sure, Mr. Liu, shall we exchange contact information?"
The masked woman took the opportunity to suggest.
"Alright. By the way, what’s your name?"
"You can call me Rixiang."
They exchanged contact information and then parted amicably.
After watching Liu Zheng leave the gambling house, the masked woman immediately took out a silver Compass.
The Compass was engraved with numerous mysterious symbols and intriguing creatures, and instead of a pointer at its center, there was a small snake made of blood moving around.
"Has the delivery man left?"
The blood on the little snake’s body vibrated slightly and emitted a sound.
"Yes, Lord Gambling Snake."
The masked woman replied respectfully.
"I’d really love to gamble against him; too bad I can’t return yet."
Gambling Snake sighed.
"How are things over there in Spirit Realm?"
The masked woman asked with concern.
"It’s fine, but nobody here wants to gamble with me; it’s quite boring."
Gambling Snake complained.
"Please don’t gamble anymore; you were exiled to the Spirit Realm this time, who knows where next time?"
The masked woman advised.
Gambling Snake was indeed skilled, but also proud; as long as the opponent didn’t cheat, she wouldn’t cheat either.
Ultimately, gambling is a game of luck; when neither party cheats, the Gambling Snake would inevitably have times of loss.
"Exiled to the Abyss would be best, then I could win a bunch of succubi as croupiers."
Gambling Snake stated confidently.
