Urban Ace Bodyguard

Chapter 1196 - 1265: Lin Hai's Former Gambling Reputation

Beads of sweat formed on Lei Jing's forehead, feeling extremely uncomfortable under Jin Ye's confident and oppressive gaze."What? I heard the Spades Queen always likes to have a young man serve her at night, perhaps she's feeling a bit weak lately?" Jin Ye let out a smug laugh.

"Hmph, I'm just considering whether or not to take your life." Lei Jing retorted without showing any weakness.

At the poker table, besides skills, what's being tested is luck. If you show weakness, it only worsens your luck, giving your opponent the upper hand.

Therefore, no matter how bad the situation is, you shouldn't show weakness voluntarily.

"Beast Lin, what should we do?" Ouyang Xiaoya was full of worry, after all, they were gambling with Lin Hai's life.

Lin Hai smiled while staring at Jin Ye, walked over to Lei Jing, and patted her shoulder, "How about it? Do you have confidence, or should I flip the card for you?"

Lei Jing shook her head, "The opponent is an expert, and since they dare to gamble here, they've definitely used advanced surveillance equipment, cheating will be immediately detected, and it will count as a loss."

"Heh, the Spades Queen is right, but as far as I know, if one's hand speed exceeds one-thousandth of a second, they can avoid surveillance." Jin Ye was clearly showing off on purpose with this remark.

How could anyone's normal hand speed possibly reach one-thousandth of a second?

"Actually, as long as one's hand speed exceeds one-hundredth of a second, even the world's most advanced surveillance will lose its function." Jin Ye didn't forget to boast further.

Is there anyone in the world who can achieve a hand speed of one-hundredth of a second?

The answer is obviously—yes!

Basically, all legendary experts can achieve this.

However, legendary figures are as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns, who would come here to gamble? Besides, if they were short of money, countless people would rush to give them money hoping to make friends.

Moreover, Jin Ye believed that it's absolutely impossible for Lin Hai's group to have a legendary figure, otherwise, he'd eat dung on a live stream! That's how determined he was!

Hearing Jin Ye's words, Ouyang Xiaoya's face grew even more worried.

"No way, if worst comes to worst, I'll bet the Youming Ya Group too, I can't let that damned beast lose his life, that dreadful man, always acting impulsively..."

While Ouyang Xiaoya was secretly making up her mind, Lin Hai suddenly grabbed the bottom card and flipped it over.

"What are you..." Lei Jing hurriedly tried to stop him, but it was already too late, and she glared angrily at Lin Hai.

This was a gamble with life, how could it be taken so lightly!

"Haha, what's the matter? Have you already accepted your defeat and resigned to fate?"

Jin Ye didn't even look at the bottom card and let out a confident laugh, because he believed his bottom card was the ace of hearts, and he didn't think Lin Hai could cheat under such tight and advanced U.S. surveillance.

In fact, from Lin Hai's card-flipping action just now, he could tell the opponent was just a gambling layman.

"Alright, Lin Hai, your life is mine now, my bottom card is..."

Mid-sentence, Jin Ye suddenly noticed everyone was looking at him with strange expressions.

Involuntarily, his card-flipping hand paused, filled with inner doubt.

Especially the eyes of the three major gambling kings behind him, they were filled with a sense of pity.

What was going on?

Jin Ye was completely puzzled.

"Mr. Jin, kindly use your alloy dog eyes to clearly see my bottom card before you say anything more!"

Lin Hai's voice rang out just at the right moment.

Jin's gaze involuntarily turned towards the card in Lin Hai's hand!

Heart Ace!

"What! That's impossible! Ace of Hearts!"

Jin Ye suddenly stood up.

The ace of hearts meant Lin Hai had a straight flush, while his own hand was nothing more than an ordinary straight.

The moment Lei Jing heard "ace of hearts," she instinctively looked at Lin Hai's hand.

When she saw clearly that it indeed was the ace of hearts, she was utterly shocked.

"Surveillance, I need to confirm the surveillance!"

Jin Ye practically shouted at the waiter beside him.

The waiter hurriedly picked up the remote control, switched on the big screen, and zoomed in on the details from earlier onto Lin Hai's hand, then replayed it.

The replay result was... no cheating.

"This is impossible!"

Jin Ye was utterly shocked.

Lei Jing was also stunned, she distinctly remembered her bottom card was a spade 3, how did it turn into the ace of hearts?

Could it be that Lin Hai really cheated?

But why didn't the surveillance footage show anything!

"Mr. Jin, your life is mine now!"

Lin Hai's voice was incomparably gentle, but in Jin Ye's ears, it was as oppressive as a death warrant from the Judge of Hell.

Jin Ye gritted his teeth hard, still unable to comprehend.

"Damn it, my bottom card was clearly the ace of hearts, how could it have turned into the ace of hearts, the card the croupier dealt should have been a spade 3!"

"Even with the most advanced U.S. surveillance, not even Chou Jiu, the South Asia Gambling King, could successfully cheat under such circumstances, how on earth did he do it!"

Jin Ye's heart was extremely conflicted and stifling, as well as utterly incredulous.

"Enough talk, your life is mine now, can you bring out the Eighth Prince for a chat?" Lin Hai said.

Suddenly, the Thailand Gambling King stood up, "To meet the Eighth Prince, winning against Jin Ye isn't enough, you need to get through me first."

"Oh? Are you betting your life too?"

Lin Hai asked with a smile.

"Bet!"

The South Asia Gambling King thought Lin Hai was just relying on luck.

"Alright, since you're not afraid of death, let's continue."

Lin Hai rubbed his hands together, honestly, he had felt a bit nervous earlier, worrying that the U.S. surveillance might be too formidable.

However, today's victory confirmed that legendary-level hand speed can indeed be fast enough to evade surveillance imaging.

"Let's bet on dice, shall we?" South Asia Gambling King proposed.

Lei Jing hurriedly interjected, "Mr. Lin, I don't know what method you used earlier, but dice are difficult to cheat with, let alone, the South Asia Gambling King specializes in dice."

"What, afraid now?" The South Asia Gambling King stared coldly at Lin Hai, his eyes filled with battle spirit.

"Of course not! Let's bet on dice!" Lin Hai also brimmed with fighting spirit.

Although killing is what he's best at, a true assassin must be well-rounded, and back in Las Vegas back in the day, Lin Hai had quite the reputation, though he seldom mentioned it.

Granted, when it comes to gambling, he definitely has his own experience.

"Big or small?" Lin Hai asked the rules.

The South Asia Gambling King nodded, "One dice, higher or lower."

This single dice method has only become popular in the past few years; originally, it was three dice, but since the movie "Gambling God" became a global hit, nearly everyone knows that three dice can be used for various tricks.

One die has fewer tricks, making it substantially more difficult for the average gambler.

"Alright!"

Lin Hai agreed boldly.

Soon, the two were each given a dice cup and a single die.

The South Asia Gambling King struck the table, causing the dice and cup to fly up, dazzling all with his swift motions, and immediately filled the room with resounding echoes from within the cup.

Lin Hai, by contrast, kept it simple, compactly lifting the die with both hands, placing it in the cup, and giving it a simple shake.

With a loud bang—

The South Asia Gambling King's dice cup had fallen.

The die shattered, splitting into three parts, a six, a five, and a four, totaling 15 points.

Seeing this result brought a satisfied smile to the South Asia Gambling King's face, as this time luck was on his side, serving up a perfect play.

Lin Hai also gently placed down his dice cup.

Everyone held their breath in suspense.

Jin Ye was equally excited, because if the South Asia Gambling King won, it would result in a tie, and his life would also be spared.

When Lin Hai lifted the dice cup, everyone was stunned once again.

The die had been shattered into six parts: six, five, four, three, two, one—a total of 21 points!

"Impossible! You didn't seem to use much force, how could you achieve such a result!"

The South Asia Gambling King gasped in amazement, his eyes nearly popping out of their sockets.
