Vol 3 Chapter 45: , Pursue

Investigate
"What are you doing in such a hurry? Come on, sit down. Because next...will be my counterattack."
Alice did not wait for Quilin to leave, and immediately pressed the ring on her hand, opened her palm, and faced Quilin.
"I, challenge you to use these four cards in my hand to completely crush the seven cards in your hand"
Beep
"Miss Alice, invite Mrs. Lyon to guess. Mrs. Lyon, please prepare."
With this sound on the radio, the gambling game finally started again. Quilin was stunned on the spot, while the idiot gritted his teeth and stayed away.
shit……
This time, it's really terrible
This man...
This man with bandages all over his body...
The man who appeared under the name "Li"
Who is he... on earth?
Quirine had no choice but to walk back. However, she did not show weakness, because the bandage man in the card in her hand was not clear, and of course, Alice could not be clear. Judging from her only four chances of guessing now, it is even more difficult to kill herself
"Huh, isn't it just a challenge? I accept"
Quirine also pressed the ring in her hand and turned to sit down again. But at this moment, the idiot immediately grabbed her arm, pressed it up, and whispered in her ear—
"Calm down. Don't be provoked."
"Go go, do you still have to say it? Don't worry, I won't be provoked."
Quirine waved her hand, sat down, lined up the playing cards in her hand and placed them on the table. She embraced her arms and smiled: "Okay, now you start..."
"J"
Quirine's words are not finished yet.
The smug smile on her face hasn't waited to cool down.
Everything happened so suddenly and so quickly. There is not even a little sign, all the answers have already appeared...
Beep
The ring in Quilin's palm made a sound without hesitation. This sound also caused one of the lined cards in front of him to tear instantly and break in half.
Quirine looked at this suddenly torn poker, and for a while, there was no even a little reaction.
She stared at the playing cards in front of her blankly, the smile at the corner of her mouth was still freezing. Nothing...I don't know anymore.
"Hehe, now, it's only the first one. Then...the next one is the second one."
Alice did not hesitate to press the ring in her hand again, and with that soft sound, a second voice came out on the broadcast.
"It's just... it's just a coincidence, don't worry, don't worry about me at all this time, this time I must..."
"9"
Beep
The card in Quilin's hand made a soft sound again and tore. In an instant, she lost two of the seven cards in her hand.
"Haha, are you in a hurry? Is it strange? Or, do you think this is incredible?"
Alice looked at Quelin, who was dumbfounded in front of her, blinked her big eyes, clicked, and smiled like an innocent her face, and said--
"In this case, why don't we play bigger? Don't worry, there is more. Anyway, there is more time. It does not take much time to destroy all seven cards in your hand. Let us take it slowly . So now..."
For the third time, Alice pressed the ring on her hand. After Quirine pressed the button on the ring tremblingly, she called out the next number without hesitation—
"8"
Of course, just as it should have been, Quilin's playing card broke again.
Quelyn was completely sluggish now.
She opened her mouth, staring at the remaining 4 playing cards on the table, and was speechless for a while.
Now, is there anything more incredible to her than this? How is this possible? There is no logic at all, and there is no rule to follow to guess cards... Why would the opponent make such accurate guesses as if they knew their own cards?
why……
All this...why?
Alice raised her neck, leaned back on the back of the chair, and whirred twice. Then she smiled and said--
"Now, we are tied. You have four cards in your hand, and I have four cards in my hand. Then you say, will I know the number of cards remaining in your hand?"
Quirine's mouth was half open, her expression still dull. The diamond ring worn on her index finger now exudes a carefree radiance. But at this moment...
These lights are so ironic and so dazzling...
Alice raised her finger and tapped on the playing card lightly. Then he said casually: "It seems that my opponent is about to fail? Oh, it's a good rule that the guessed party can't refuse. Once it is regarded as prey, it can only be hunted. Is the goal? Ah, and Mr. Lyon. In fact, don't worry too much. After your wife's death, you can still get 10,000 Sura's soothing money. It should be considered good, right?"
The idiot's eyes were cold, without any emotion. When Alice met these eyes, she couldn't help swallowing. Afterwards, she turned her head, sneered, and pressed the ring in her hand for the fourth time...
"A"
Beep
Once again, there are only three cards left in Quilin's hand. After the fourth soft sound, Quirine seemed to have finally made some decision.
She suddenly raised her head and looked at Alice in front of her. Then, her right hand was raised, and an ice skate was gathered in her palm.
Seeing the ice skates, Alice couldn't help but breathe in air, and she was about to step back. But what she didn't expect was that Quirine gritted her teeth, raised the ice skates, and was about to cut her index finger with her ring
The sharp ice blade stayed less than a centimeter above the index finger.
The radiating cold air spread downward, forming a layer of hoarfrost on the diamond ring.
Quilin was stunned for a moment, looking at the strong hand on her wrist. Afterwards, she followed this hand and looked up, and what she saw was the idiot's face that was so cold at all times.
"you you……"
"Miss Alice, if you think you can kill my wife directly, you can do it."
The idiot's hand pressed hard, and Quirin couldn't help but loosen the hand holding the knife. The ice skate got out of her palm, quickly gasified and disappeared.
Alice over there saw the idiot's face, no matter how long she looked at it, she still couldn't get herself used to this face that seemed to be able to see everything clearly. After gritting her teeth, she snorted and said--
"Cut, do you think I dare not? Anyway, I know all the seven cards in your wife's hand. Your wife's life and death are all in my hands. I can do whatever I want."
After that, she quickly pressed the ring on her hand and said, "Come on"
Quilen’s eyes were already filled with tears, her fingers trembled, and she did not even dare to press it again. Seeing this, the idiot took the initiative to press the ring on Quilin's hand and motioned to Alice to continue.
"Huh... scare me? You can't scare me. I know your wife still has an A in her hand, right? So, this time I'm still called A"
Beep
The voice sounded.
At this time, the expression on Quilin's face was already desperate.
That's right, she did still have an Ace in her hand, and the sound of this sound also made her two cards in hand...
Ok? "
However, when Quilin closed her eyes and tried her best to endure, the sound of poker cracking never sounded? She was strange and quickly opened her eyes
The three cards in front of me...still intact.
Look at the ring on my hand again... Be quiet, there is no sound
In this case, where is the source of the sound just now...?
Quirine raised her head, in front of her, Alice, her face turned pale at the moment, her lips...constantly trembled.
"you guessed wrong."
The idiot standing nearby closed his eyes and spoke slowly. After hearing these words, Alice quickly raised her head and looked at Li next to the bandage man. At this moment, she coldly stared at the idiot beside Quilin after a long silence...
"You really guessed wrong."
This sentence completely shattered the smile on Alice's face.
The idiot patted Quilin who was a little dumbfounded, indicating that she could make a choice. Quirine was stunned, and quickly chose one of the playing cards in Alice's hand and spread it out.
"is 6"
After the report was over, the idiot grabbed the card and shred it in front of everyone.
Looking at the falling pieces of paper, Alice's madness just never appeared again. After tearing up the poker, the idiot said coldly: "Why, do you want to play it? I'm here to stay with me."
No... I'm not playing anymore, I'm not playing anymore"
Alice immediately picked up the remaining three cards and stuffed them into her pocket in horror. After seeing this scene, the idiot immediately pulled up the dumbfounded Quilin and left the room. As for Quirine, she saved her life temporarily, and she also saved one of her fingers.
"Good danger. I thought I was finished just now."
Quirine squeezed the poker and walked behind with a little frustration. She sighed and said, "But it's really strange. I have two Aces in my hand. Why did I win in the end?"
While talking, Quirin took out the poker in his pocket and opened it...
"Large...greatly...greatly..."
In the hand, the card that was supposed to be Aces is now gone. Instead, it turned out to be the big ugly that should have been in the hands of an idiot?
"Little...little idiot...what the is going on?"
Returning to the room, Quilin naturally grabbed the idiot and asked for an explanation. But the idiot's explanation was very simple. He took out his own poker from his pocket and opened the top one...
"A? This...this is..."
"Yes. This is your card."
The idiot re-squeezed the ace into his deck and said--
"When I told you to be careful, I secretly exchanged this big ugly with the A in your hand. It is also this sudden big ugly that prevents Alice from guessing the poker in your hand. Let us slightly I can take a breath."
"Have you changed the cards?"
Quirine opened her eyes wide, and yelled in absolute surprise, and said--
"How can you change the cards? This... such an obvious violation of the rules, will you not be afraid of being punished if you do it? Just in case... if the villa owner knows about it"
"No, the owner of the villa, Roger Tyre. From the very beginning, this man instructed us to change poker freely. Moreover, looking at all the rules in that letter, there is no conclusion that we cannot change cards with others. On the contrary, there are so many hints that you can change cards."
Quirin became more confused, opened her mouth wide, and began to wait for an explanation.
"In the beginning, there were seven decks of cards. What do you think is the real reason Roger Tyre prepared these seven decks."
"This...this...not for everyone to check and see which deck of cards did not cheat..."
"No. Just the opposite."
The idiot paused and said--
"The real purpose of the owner of this Diamond Villa is not to prevent us from cheating. It is to encourage us to cheat. There are seven decks of cards, just to allow us to have the opportunity to exchange each other. The concept of why we cannot change cards with others is pure It is a preconceived notion left over from ordinary poker games. The owner never said a word about it."
"And because of this, I can get these two big clowns. And because of that, I said at the beginning that the cards that need to be paid attention to are thirty-three, not thirty-five. Because before the beginning of the game, I As the last person to check the poker, he has drawn the big jester out of the last pile of cards and hid it in his body."
Quirine was stunned for a while, and started to feel a little confused. After waiting for about ten seconds, she suddenly realized
"That's it? Even though you have drawn seven cards, you actually have nine cards in total in your hand? You replaced the big joker with those two cards, didn't you? Because all the cards were burned after the cards were drawn. , So no one will know if you are cheating at all."
Finally, the idiot took out two more from his arms. It was a Q and a 4, and after the display was over, the idiot put these cards on him again.
"The rules of the game say that everyone has 7 points in the initial stage. As each other guesses and guesses wrongly, it gradually decreases. However, the rules do not say how many cards there are, then there are some points. In other words, even if I I have 9 cards in my hand, but I can only show 7 cards when I guess with the opponent. After all the 7 points are eliminated, even if I still have two cards in my hand, it will not help."
"But as an adjustment strategy, in exchange for mutual exchange, this kind of'cheating' is just right, allowing us to better adjust the cards in our hands and make offense and defense."
Quirin thought, after a while, she thought of something, and quickly said--
"But it's a idiot, that means... there are actually two big clowns on the scene now? I don't know whose hands those two cards are now, are they?"
"Yes."
"Well... Then, in this case, wouldn't the big jester become the same cards as those with only two cards left?"
"No. Because for others, no one knows about my exchange of cards. So, as long as the big clown in someone's hand is torn, then the possibility of others guessing that I have a big clown again is zero."
"Oh, that's the case. Well...little idiot, what should I do now? I only have three cards in my hand...now, my situation is very unfavorable...and how does Alice know what card I have in my hand? Does she have supernatural powers?"
The idiot shook his head slowly, and after thinking about it, he said, "How does Alice guess your card? I'll talk about it later. First of all, I want to explain to you our next strategy."
"Okay. What strategy? Defensive?"
"No, it's offense."
The idiot said these words categorically.
"Offensive? But... But..." Quirin said with a bit of incomprehension, "How can we attack? I only have three cards left in my hand."
"The small number of cards does not mean that you are at a disadvantage. The large number of cards sometimes does not mean that you are full of advantages. There is actually another reason why I steal the big clown, and that is to ensure that we are truly unbeaten. place."
Quirine exhaled and said, "How to say?"
"It's very simple. Teacher, if you have a big clown in your hand, will you attack other people?"
"Of course~~~I have a big clown in my hand who will never be guessed...............Huh? No, I won’t attack because if I guess wrong, others will randomly choose a card and shred it. It is very likely to tear my ugliness"
The idiot nodded and said, "That's the case. Therefore, the person with the big clown in his hands or those two people will never take the initiative to attack. And what we have to do is except Alice and Li Among the three people, find out the holder of the big clown. As for Alice, since she only had astonishment on her face when she guessed wrong just now, but did not have the tension of the opponent’s card, it is conceivable that she is not the holder of the big clown. Yes. As for Li..."
The idiot was silent for a while, and said: "From the perspective of their cooperation to deceive you, it is impossible for him to have a big clown.
"Huh? Why?"
"Because, Alice knows your cards so well. The reason for knowing your cards in this way is probably because she and Li exchanged all seven cards with each other. In this way, although they know each other’s hole cards, it’s also because Your own hole cards are known to the opponent, and if they really start to attack each other, it will become a situation where whoever presses the ring first will win. In addition, there is ten minutes of preparation time in the guessing of the cards, one of which can completely take the other's The cards are made public, leading things to the worst."
"And the reason why there is no big clown in Li's hands is this. If Alice has the big clown in her hands, then it is absolutely impossible for her to agree to exchange cards."
Quilin said: "So... shall we go to the big clown now? What happens after we find it?"
The idiot raised his finger and said: "After you find it, destroy it. Then, because everyone will think that there is no big clown on the court. Then we two will play an ugly card with each other, then we will be invincible from the beginning of the game. Up." A
