Chapter 398 Wu Yue's Troubles
"Why, you can't allow others to win money when you run a casino?"
Lin Mo laughed and teased.
"Of course that's not what I meant. When you sit at the gambling table, winning or losing depends on your own ability. It's just that the man was a little strange. At the beginning, he won a few times in a row, and the casino staff thought he was just lucky."
Wu Yue frowned, with a puzzled tone in her voice, “But who would have thought that for several days, that person seemed to be possessed by the God of Gamblers and kept winning money.
And the stakes keep getting bigger and bigger, and I’ve already won a very large sum of money.”
“But the casino can’t stop him from gambling, otherwise it will be made a laughing stock by other casinos and it will be difficult for them to continue operating.
But if we continue to let that guy win like this, the casino will have to close sooner or later."
"Uncle Guan and his gang, who are in charge of the casino, suspected that the man was cheating.
However, after watching him for a few days, I still can't see any tricks."
Wu Yue sighed and continued, "I originally wanted to hand this matter over to my second uncle, but then I thought, if I ask him for help right after taking over, wouldn't it make me look too incompetent?
So I tried to investigate on my own, but ended up running around like a headless fly. "
"Have you checked the other party's background? Could it be that they were sent by other gambling houses to cause trouble?" Lin Mo asked.
Wu Yue said that she had asked someone to investigate this person a long time ago. This person came from another place and his background was unknown.
She has been so busy these days that she has not even had time to go home, just to deal with this matter.
Having said that, Wu Yue sighed softly, with a hint of helplessness in her eyes.
"Give me another two days. If I still can't find anything, I'll have to shamelessly go to my second uncle."
Hearing this, Lin Mo thought to himself and put aside the matter of the Northwest swordsman that he had originally wanted to mention.
He comforted her softly, "Don't worry, I'll go with you and take a look, maybe I can help."
"Brother, do you know how to gamble?"
Wu Yue's eyes lit up, but then she became half-believing and half-doubting.
"I know a little bit."
Lin Mo smiled slightly.
Wu Yue thought, Senior Brother always knows a lot.
Taking him there might really bring you unexpected gains.
Even if it doesn't work, it's no big deal.
"Okay, that's settled then."
Wu Yue agreed.
At this time, Zhong Ling asked curiously, "Sister Xiaoyue, where are you going? I want to go too!"
"That place is not for children to go. How about you stay at home with your brother and I will bring you some delicious food in the evening?"
Wu Yue coaxed gently.
"No, I just want to go and take a look."
Zhong Ling pouted her lips and refused to give up.
Seeing this, Zhong Xiu frowned and scolded: "Little sister, stop messing around. Brother Mo and Sister Xiaoyue have important things to do. Why are you making trouble?"
Zhong Ling lowered her head aggrievedly and muttered softly: "I know, brother."
Lin Mo thought about it, and suggested, "Why not take them with you? It would be good for them to broaden their horizons. It's not a good thing for them to stay at home all the time."
Wu Yue frowned slightly.
It’s not that she doesn’t want to take the child, but that place is really not suitable for children.
"Sister Xiaoyue, I promise to be obedient and not act naughty." Zhong Ling pulled her hand and shook it.
Wu Yue's heart softened and she smiled, "Okay, I'll do as you say, you clever little devil."
As she spoke, she gently scratched the tip of Zhong Ling's nose, and they smiled at each other.
"It's still early now. That person usually comes at night. Let's go to the gambling house after dinner!" Wu Yue suggested.
"Okay." Zhong Ling nodded in agreement.
at dusk.
After they finished their meal, they tidied up and went out.
At this time, there was already a car waiting outside the alley.
Seeing Wu Yue coming, a handsome young man in a black suit and with his hair combed neatly came over and opened the car door for her.
When he turned his gaze to Lin Mo and his group, he hesitated a little.
"Miss Fourth, these people are..."
The young man asked politely with a hint of inquiry.
Wu Yue replied casually: "They are my fellow apprentices and they are with me."
The young man nodded as if he suddenly realized something and smiled politely at Lin Mo and the others.
But Lin Mo noticed that there seemed to be a hint of hostility in the other party's eyes when he looked at him.
Lin Mo was also confused.
This should be the first time that you and the other person meet.
I don't know where this hostility comes from.
It was the first time for Zhong Ling and Zhong Xiu to ride in a car.
I was a little timid at first and hesitated to get on the bus.
It was not until Wu Yue encouraged them with a smile that the brother and sister got into the car with trepidation.
When the surrounding residents saw this, they all looked at him with envy and talked about it one after another.
"Hey, look, they even have a special car to pick us up!"
"This car is a foreign product! I heard someone say it's called something like "shell on the bottom of the plate"!"
"What's that? It's called a Pontiac! You country bumpkin! The President rides in this brand of car when he goes out!"
"This car was shipped from the United States. The cheapest one costs one thousand dollars!"
"Wow, one thousand dollars? You can buy two courtyard houses. What a luxury! My goodness, is this car made of gold? It's so expensive!"
"Look at the license plate. This is the car of Sanhemen Gang Leader Du Jinrong. Who are Xiaolin and his gang to deserve Gang Leader Du's treatment?"
"I didn't expect there was such an important person living here!"
Amidst exclamations and speculations, the car started slowly.
We shuttled through the night and drove towards the most prosperous South City of Kyoto.
Inside the car, Zhong Ling and Zhong Xiu looked at the colorful night scene outside the window, feeling both nervous and excited.
Lin Mo seemed exceptionally calm, and this composure made Wu Yue admire him even more.
No matter what the situation, Brother always seems to be able to remain calm.
I still need to learn more about this kind of concentration.
"Don't be afraid, sister, I wasn't used to riding in a car the first time, but it will get better slowly."
Wu Yue gently held Zhong Ling's little hand and comforted her in a soft voice.
Looking at the luxurious decoration inside the car, Zhong Xiu clenched and unclenched his fists, and something seemed to be taking root in his heart.
Lin Mo glanced out the window.
I have to say that the driver's driving skills are really good.
The roads in some parts of Kyoto are not that good.
But they didn't feel too many bumps along the way.
Not long after, the car stopped steadily in front of a three-story restaurant.
This is the Sanhemen’s business, and those guarding the door to welcome guests are all members of the Sanhemen gang.
Of course, he was very familiar with the gang leader Du Jinrong's car.
The moment they saw the car coming, they immediately stepped forward to greet it.
"Hello, Miss Fourth!"
"Xiao Ling, A Xiu, let's get off the car!" Wu Yue called out.
As soon as the two children got off the car, they were stunned by the brightly lit and magnificent restaurant in front of them.
His eyes were wide open with surprise.
Following Wu Yue into the restaurant, they were stunned by the luxurious scene inside, as if they had stepped into another world.
Originally, the two siblings thought that it was getting dark and they should go to bed after dinner.
Because we have to save oil lamps.
However, they did not expect that even at night, there are still places in this world that are as bright as day.
"How many oil lamps would it take to illuminate such a large area so brightly?"
Zhong Xiu muttered to herself softly, and her steps were very cautious, for fear of dirtying the ground.
I was so timid that I didn't dare go in for fear of dirtying the floor.
"Silly boy."
Wu Yue felt a pang of sadness in her heart and sighed softly.
When the gang members nearby heard this, although they didn't say it explicitly, there was a bit of contempt in their eyes and they secretly said "country bumpkin".
Lin Mo patted his shoulder and signaled him not to be timid.
Seeing this, Lin Mo patted Zhong Xiu on the shoulder and encouraged him, "When you have the ability, these flashy things will come to you without asking for them."
"Come on, follow me upstairs and take a rest in the private room."
Wu Yue led them straight to the second floor.
The attire of these people was out of place in this restaurant, so they naturally became the focus of everyone's attention.
However, the guests here were either rich or noble. Although they were curious, they only frowned slightly and did not make any sarcastic remarks.
As the group went up to the second floor, a shrill voice suddenly came from behind.
"Hey, isn't this my cousin Xiaoyue? I was wondering why I couldn't find you anywhere. Turns out you're here!"
