The people who placed their bets with him sighed in disappointment. Two pretty girls stomped their feet anxiously. "D * mn it, how did we lose?"
Li Du asked, "Hey, did you guys notice that friend of mine?"
"Which friend?" the red-haired girl asked with her eyes wide open.
Li Du pointed to where Lin Ping was sitting and said, "The one sitting here, the one with me, the one who kept placing his bets. Where did he go?"
The red-haired girl said with a serious face, "What are you talking about? There's no one here. Didn't you come by yourself? Wasn't it you who placed the bets? "
The golden-haired girl also said, "Yeah, sir, did you lose your mind? You were the one who placed the bets the whole time. "
Li Du rubbed his chin and looked at the two girls with a smile. "Stop joking, where did my friend go?"
"We don't know what you're talking about." The red-haired girl shrugged innocently.
The people who placed their bets also said, "Yeah, young man, you've been here alone the whole time. You're the one who placed the bets."
"Maybe this guy lost his wits. He kept winning, but in the end, he lost."
"That's understandable. He lost a little too much."
If it wasn't for his confidence in his mental state, Li Du would have thought that he was suffering from schizophrenia!
Everyone claimed that they had never seen Lin Ping. They all said that he was gambling by himself.
Looking at their serious faces, Mr. Li almost believed them. Luckily, he took out his phone and looked at it. The text messages and phone calls were still on the screen.
He didn't understand. What was Lin Ping up to?
Too lazy to think about it, he shook his head and wanted to leave. The boxman who was hosting the bet stopped him and smiled. "Sorry, sir, you have to pay the money first before you can leave."
Li Du pointed at the chips on the table and said, "I lost. Can't you just take them away?"
"Sorry, these are not enough." The boxman was still smiling politely.
Li Du frowned. "Not enough? What do you mean? "
The boxman said, "You bet in the five times betting area. If you lose here, it means you have to pay five times your bet."
"A total of one million," the dealer added.
Li Du's eyes flashed a few times. He suddenly understood what was going on.
He had been tricked by Lin Ping, or perhaps he had been tricked by an organization. These people had planned to set him up.
From the time Lin Ping called him, to the time he was dragged into the casino, to the time he played dice with the two girls, and in the end, he lost the biggest bet. This was all a trap, one step at a time, and in the end, he was stuck in a quagmire.
The two girls and the people around them belonged to this organization. Even the boxman and the Zhuang family belonged to this organization. They were working together to set him up.
He said calmly, "I'm sure you'll say that I didn't have a companion just now and that I was betting by myself, right?"
The boxman put on a formal smile. "Of course. What are you talking about? Of course you were gambling alone. We all saw it, didn't we? "
Li Du tried to stay calm, and then realized that he might have been cheated by the casino.
He said, "How much do I owe you now?"
"The total capital is one million. There are two hundred thousand worth of chips on the table, so there's still eight hundred thousand left." The boxman maintained his formal smile.
Li Du said, "You don't have to laugh. I'm afraid I won't be able to stop myself from punching your face."
"Then things will be more troublesome, sir," the boxman said proudly.
So far, Li Du had earned a total of seven hundred thousand. But after deducting the car purchase and daily expenses, he was only left with five hundred thousand — not enough to pay back the eight hundred thousand.
He said, "I'll make a call. I don't have that much money on me now. I'll have to get someone to send the money over."
The boxman nodded. "Of course, no problem."
Li Du called Hans. "I'm at the Comanche Casino. Prepare five hundred thousand and bring Godzilla."
Hans laughed and said, "Are you crazy? Where do I have three hundred thousand? "
"I've been set up. If you don't bring three hundred thousand, you probably won't see me again."
Hearing this, Hans immediately said, "Sh * t, you're not joking?"
"Very serious." Li Du's voice was so cold that it seemed to come from a block of ice.
Hans said without hesitation, "Stall them. Give me an hour, and I'll bring three hundred thousand!"
Li Du frowned and thought for a while. He called Rose again and explained the situation. "I need some help."
Rose immediately said, "I don't usually save money. I only have about one hundred thousand. Give me some time, I need to borrow money from my colleagues."
Li Du laughed and said, "I can handle the money, but the casino is bullying me. I can't take it anymore. I want to fight back, but I'm afraid they'll use violence."
Rose said, "I understand. I'll be there as soon as possible. As long as you don't break the law, no one can use violence against you!"
The policewoman was swift and decisive. Less than twenty minutes after hanging up, she appeared at the entrance of the casino in casual clothes.
After another half an hour, Hans walked in with Godzilla. There was another person accompanying them. It was the playboy Akkalou Benidito, whom Hans had met twice before.
Hans also knew that the situation was not good. He did not tease Rose, who was standing beside Li Du. He directly passed a card to Li Du and said in a low voice, "Three hundred thousand, how about it?"
Li Du said, "Swipe them away. Keep the card. There will be three million in it later!"
Hans was shocked. "Are you crazy? You still want to gamble? "
Li Du laughed coldly. "I've never thought of gambling, but do you remember what I said? In my hometown, the people in the casino call me Gao Jin! The God of Gamblers, Gao Jin! "
He did not want to gamble. From the start, he had not wanted to get involved in this.
But since the casino was bullying him, he had to fight back. Li Du did not cause trouble, but he was not afraid of it either. If these people thought that the Chinese were easy to bully, then he would make them regret it today!
Eight hundred thousand dollars was transferred out. Li Du raised the card and said, "Exchange this for ten thousand dollars worth of chips."
Soon, ten green chips were sent to his hands.
There was a saying in the casino: If the person who invented poker could be praised as smart, then the person who invented chips could be said to be a genius.
Li Du held the chips and felt that this saying was right.
Ten thousand dollars in Flagstaff was enough for an average family to live on for a season. But in his hands, it was just ten light plastic cards.
These plastic cards had cute cartoon stickers on them. It gave people a psychological hint that these were just some small toys and it was okay to throw them away.
Back at the dice table, Li Du waved his hand and said, "Continue."
The boxman still had a formal smile on his face and said, "Yes, sir."
The Playboy took a cocktail and sipped it. Then, he smiled and looked at Li Du with an unfathomable gaze.
Everyone thought that Li Du had just waved his hand normally. In fact, he had released the little bug.
The dice cup landed on the table and the little bug immediately flew in.
Expressionless, Li Du pushed the ten chips forward and said, "All on small."
