The treasure hunters had different opinions. Some bet on small because Li Du had won most of the time. Some bet on big, saying that according to the odds, it should be big.
When the dice cup was opened, it was indeed big. Some people cheered, while others were upset.
Li Du did not care about that. He looked at Marlin and greeted him, "Hey, buddy Marlin, good evening."
That night was the time when the casino was booming. Many white-collar workers would come to play a few rounds after work to relax. The tables around them were crowded, and many people were looking at them.
Although Marlin was dissatisfied, he could not show it on his face.
He waved enthusiastically and said, "Li, my China buddy, you're here to play again?"
He deliberately emphasized the word 'again', and when he spat out the word, the smile on his face instantly froze.
Li Du said, "Yes, I'm here to play."
Marlin pretended to be surprised and asked, "When you left the last time, didn't you say you weren't going to play again? Why are you here again today? And you brought so many people with you? "
Li Du said, "You misunderstood, Mr. Marlin. I said I wouldn't come to gamble, not that I'm not coming back. This time, I'm not here to gamble. I'm here to look for a buddy. "
"Look for who?"
Li Du said, "Joffrey Rick. I want to seek justice from him because he owes my buddies a sum of money. I have to get it back."
Marlin looked at the chips beside him and gradually frowned. "What's going on? Can you tell me?"
"Of course, no problem. You're Joffrey Rick's boss. Of course you have the right to know everything," he said with a smile.
"Recently, two Californians came to Flagstaff. I don't know what happened, but Mr. Rick became friends with them. They teamed up and cheated my buddies of ten thousand dollars."
He patted the chips and emphasized, "Ten thousand dollars."
Marlin was a veteran at the casino. When he saw the chips beside Li Du, he estimated the value of the chips. It was exactly ten thousand dollars.
Then he understood Li Du's intention. He was here to beat him up. Li Du was here to get the money back.
When he understood this, Marlin smiled, but his smile was cold.
He felt that Li Du was looking for trouble. "Buddy, I get what you mean, I get it. But, is it really okay to do this? "
"We Chinese have a saying, 'It's only right and proper to pay what you owe.' There's another saying, 'Every debt has its debtor.' The one who owes us the debt is Mr. Rick, but you're Mr. Rick's boss. There's nothing wrong with us looking for you, right?"
Marlin said coldly, "Are you sure you can defeat me? Do you think I'm easier to deal with than that son of a b * tch Dog Ears? "
Li Du said sincerely, "No, you are not to be trifled with. I know you are not to be trifled with. I am even afraid of you. But I have no choice. Someone is bullying me. I have to fight back. "
Without waiting for the other party to speak, he continued, "As you can see, I haven't been near your casino since I left last time. This time, I have no choice. If I don't fight back, your dog will think that I'm easy to mess with and will keep messing with me."
"Also, Mr. Marlin, if I wanted to provoke you, I wouldn't have stopped after winning so few chips."
The boxman walked over and whispered to Marlin, "He won 14,000 dollars earlier and gave the other 4,000 to these rednecks. They're all rookies at the casino and have lost most of their money."
Marlin's expression softened a lot. He waved his hand to signal the boxman to go back and host the gambling. Then he said to Li Du, "How about we go to the lounge to talk?"
Li Du said, "With pleasure."
Big Quinn and Godzilla wanted to follow him. He snapped his fingers and said, "You guys stay here and watch. Whoever loses all his chips, restrain him and don't allow him to gamble again."
"Yes, Boss." The two of them stood obediently.
At the same time, Godzilla glanced at Marlin. He pulled open his shirt and revealed the valiant golden eagle on his chest and the bright dahlia it was holding.
Seeing this tattoo, the expression of a burly Native American man behind Marlin changed immediately.
Walking to the lounge, Marlin said with a faint smile, "Li, you're very bold. You came here alone. Aren't you afraid that I'll teach you a lesson?"
Li Du said, "If that's your plan, of course I'm afraid. But I know you won't do that. You know that I didn't mean to provoke you. You also know that we should be friends, not enemies. "
Marlin said, "If that's the case, then why did you come to win my money?"
Li Du said, "I'm here to pass you a message. Keep an eye on Geoffrey Rick. The two Californians he's befriended recently are not easy to deal with. He'll bring you trouble."
Hearing this, a murderous look flashed in Marlin's eyes. He said, "Don't worry, I'll talk to Geoffrey!"
Having gotten the promise, Li Du stood up and said, "Thank you, Mr. Marlin. Then I should go back and see my buddies. When they've lost all their money, we'll leave."
Marlin laughed, "Don't say that. Maybe they'll keep winning."
Li Du shook his head and said, "No, no one can keep winning in the casino. The old man who taught me the gambling skills has always emphasized this …"
At this point, he hurriedly shut his mouth, as if he had revealed some information.
The corner of Marlin's eye twitched. Then he asked, "Oh yes, Li, you have such good gambling skills. I'd like to ask if you're interested in working here? It's definitely more profitable than your storage auctions. "
Li Du said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Marlin. I once swore that as long as no one provoked me, and as long as there was no reason for it, I would never enter the casino again!"
Marlin said, "Don't be in such a hurry to reject me. Go back and think about it."
Li Du said, "Alright, anyway, thank you very much for your invitation. Also, I can promise you that as long as you don't force me, I won't cause any trouble! "
Immediately, Marlin laughed and said cheerfully, "You didn't cause any trouble, Li. You're a good guy. In fact, you're more than welcome to look for me. But it's better to have a chat over coffee. "
Li Du said, "Then, I'll see you later."
Four hundred dollars was not a lot. When Li Du returned to the gambling table, more than ten people had already lost their money.
After waiting for a while, the remaining people also lost their money. Everyone stared at each other.
"Sh * t, this money is spent really fast," Turis muttered.
Li Du said, "Alright, the money's spent. Then we should leave."
Olly gave him a look and said, "Li, you're very lucky today. Why don't you continue betting? Maybe you can earn a hundred thousand dollars! "
"And lose my life?" Li Du smiled and was the first to leave the casino.
The others looked at each other, shrugged and followed.
Now, Li Du was their backbone, their locomotive. They followed Li Du's every step.
