[R18] Global College Entrance Examination – “Global College Entrance Examination” Chapter 97 [English]

97. Casino

Speaking of randomness, it was not the fault of the two big guys.

Candidates in the same session will be assigned to the same rest area. Others have already left, and they are just keeping up.

Swimming with koi fish has never been successful, and this time is no different.

The resting place is not the same old one as Chu Yue’s. On the contrary, it is as prosperous as a gold-selling cave.

“Hey! Congratulations, you got one of the best resting places.” 078 rubbed his hands as soon as he came in.

Youhuo was not happy at all.

There are only 5 resting places in total, which is “one of”.

However, Qin Zhu was in a good mood. He patted You Huo on the shoulder, pointed to the busy distance and said, “Look at that tower, what do you think it is for?”

Youhuo: “…casino.”

Qin Jiu said half-seriously: “Our chief examiner is really smart.”

Youhuo: “…”

Are you serious?

The top of the tower is a four-sided pyramid with a lightning rod pointing straight to the sky and a string of dice strung on it.There are four eaves corners at the bottom, each corner supports a RMB symbol.

Only a mentally retarded person would not be able to tell that this is a casino.

But speaking of casinos…

Youhuo remembered what the driver said during Gypsy’s test.

He asked Qin Jiu: “Can the casino draw cards? Are there guarantees and so on?”

Qin Jiu nodded and was about to speak when 078 spoke: “Who told you this? The person who said this must have never been in a casino.”

Youhuo turned to look at him: “Have you ever been around?”

078 coughed against his lips and said, “This is my favorite resting place.”

“Can’t you see that you still like excitement?” Qin Zhu said.

078 I don’t know if he is serious or just a run.

“Anyway, the casino does have good cards. What about extensions, exam exemptions, extra points… If you are lucky, you can save one or two of these cards. As for cards like guarantees, don’t count on it.”

078 did not meet with the other three invigilators, and did not know the card drawing situation of You Huo and Qin Zhu. I only know that these two people have always been very unlucky.

“Think about it, why don’t you use it immediately if you really have a walk-off card? This is already a top trump card. Why don’t you bring it to the casino in exchange for a better card? How many idiots can do this? Unless someone gets the right to draw two lots in one exam and draws two walks at the same time, but that is even more impossible. There is only one card in a deck.” 078 said, shaking his head.

He didn’t notice You Huo’s expression, and said sincerely: “As someone who has been there, I would like to remind you, don’t be addicted to casinos. You can just accept it, especially don’t think about accepting guarantees.”

Youhuo took out a card from his pocket with an expressionless face: “We are not planning to accept a walk-in, we are going to give a walk-out. How idiotic are you?”

078: “…”

He gave himself a slap, turned around and ran away.

Qin Zhu looked at You Huo’s stern profile and smiled for a long time while leaning on the lamppost.

“Am I funny?” The handsome guy said in a cold tone.

Qin Jiu said nonchalantly: “No, our Mr. A occasionally swears very…”

he paused.

Youhuo is waiting for what he will say next.

Qin Jiu narrowed his eyes: “Very sexy.”

Youhuo was blocked.

He looked at Qin Zhu from head to toe and suddenly replied: “Not as sexy as you.”

Qin Jiu: “?”

He probably never thought that the other party would come back like this, and he was stunned for a while.

When he came to his senses, You Huo had already brushed against He’s shoulder and walked along the crosswalk to the other side of the street.

***

This rest place is really busy.

This time it’s not irony.

I can actually use the word “busy traffic”.

You Huo pointed to the passing vehicles and pedestrians and asked Qin Jiu: “Are these real people or NPCs?”

Qin Jiu: “Half and half.”

“Half?” Youhuo was surprised, “Where are there so many people?”

“Most of the country’s candidates are concentrated here.”

“If I remember correctly, someone said that for a period of time, only people from the same type of examination room will enter the same rest area?”

“Yes, except here.”

“Why?”

“Because of that casino.”

Qin Jiu pointed to the tower that was getting closer and said, “You can get a lot of things there, things you want and things you can’t think of. For example, cards. A slight combination of some cards can help candidates postpone the next exam and gain more time.”

One month, two months.

One year, two years.

Houses and cars are not as valuable as good cards here, and they are easy to get by gambling.

Once you live here, you will feel that it is no different from an ordinary city.

The longer I live here, the less I want to risk taking the next exam.

As a result, there are more and more candidates.

It is inevitable that people from different examination rooms will be mixed together.

“Because the examination rooms are different, candidates here will exchange information and sell examination room information.” Qin Jiu said, “This is also the reason why many people choose to stay here.”

People have a psychology – after collecting 10 examination room information, they will worry about getting the 11th one.After collecting 100 examination room information, you will worry that there are 1,000 waiting for you in the system.

Always worried about omissions, never feeling like it’s enough.

So…it will never be possible to leave here.

“Isn’t it ridiculous?” Qin Jiu said.

he didn’t use a sarcastic tone, just a little emotional.

“It’s understandable.” Youhuo thought for a while and said, “In the final analysis, it’s still a system problem… What do you want me to do?”

Qin Jiu said: “It’s nothing, how can I put it…it’s rare to see someone like you.”

Youhuo: “What kind?”

Qin Jiu: “There are very few people who firmly believe that the system is disgusting from beginning to end. Most of them have been shaken.”

“How is that possible?”

“Of course it’s possible.” Qin Jiu said, “Don’t you think the system can sometimes seem stupid and childish?”

You Huo understood what he meant.

Many people are soft-hearted in nature and will laugh or cry because of the stupid things the system does, temporarily forgetting its cruelty.

Once or twice is fine, but ten or twenty times?

Or even…a hundred times a thousand times?

People who stay here for a long time – long-term candidates and invigilators, they may encounter such moments every day.

Not to mention, the system will occasionally give some “preferential treatment” and “rewards”.

Gao Qi said: “The early proctors were divided into moderates and hardliners, because the moderate proctors had some feelings about the system.”

Youhuo felt incredible at the time.

He has a hard time understanding why there are moderates; why there are people who are soft on the system and think it can get back on track.

Now, he understands.

It’s hard to tell whether the system was intentional or unintentional.

But it does get a little confusing.

If it was intentional, it would be really…kind of scary.

***

It was rare for the boss to feel melancholy, but it only lasted less than twenty minutes.

Because the casino is really noisy.

As soon as he got his number and entered the door, youhuo was greeted by a roar of cheers.

In this environment, you have to either shout or bite your ears to speak.

Both of them were too lazy to shout, so there was no doubt that they would choose the latter.

In front of No. 001, the invigilator was like a tour guide, explaining in Youhuo’s ear all the way: “The first and second floors are the score areas, and the scores are used as chips. If you win, you will get extra points, if you lose, you will lose points. Many people hope to get their scores as high as possible before the exam, so that they only need to be stable during the exam.”

The enthusiastic scream just now was because someone won by 26 points.

The man vented for a while and then returned to the gaming table.

Youhuo said in confusion: “Don’t you know you’ll just give up when you’re good?”

Qin Jiu said: “It’s not that I don’t know, it’s that there are regulations.”

“What rules?”

“You have to gamble three times in a row.”

The next second, the one who won by 26 points lost by 19 points.

After beating his chest and feet, he stood at the gambling table for the third time.

They passed through an arch and went up the stairs.

The third floor was equally lively, but the mood was subtly different.

Qin Jiu said: “This is the cash area.”

“Cash?”

“It doesn’t just refer to cash in a narrow sense.” Qin Zhu said: “It includes electronic transfers, houses, cars and other things that represent money in real life.”

“Money is almost useless here, so why gamble?”

“Vent.” Qin Jiu said, “Would you easily bet out a house in real life? You can do it here. Bet out in three seconds and win back in five seconds. A kind of absurd venting.”

If we say the score zone is truly extremely excited and extremely anxious.

The cash area is pure catharsis, cool but not stressful.

They went up two more floors, and Qin Jiu said, “This is the card area.”

The level of tension is somewhere between points and cash.

What’s special is that in the card area, only a limited number of people actually go to the gaming tables, and most of them are just waiting and watching.

See who has what cards in their hand, and see who your cards can attract.

You Huo glanced at it roughly.

Middle-to-high-end cards such as “Invigilator’s Help”, “Cramming”, and “Cheat Sheet” accounted for the majority.

There were two or three circles of people gathered around seven or eight tables, and the bets were on high-quality cards with direct effects such as “add ten points” and “let me copy the answer.”

There were two other tables packed with people… Qin Jiu didn’t even look at them and said firmly: “They must be exempted from the exam or postponed. These two are the most popular here.”

“Right here?”

The half-amnesiac examiner had the aura of a gambler. He was about to go to the table, but Qin Zhu quickly caught him with his quick eyes and hands.

“Wait, don’t worry.” Qin Jiu said.

He fished too fast and grabbed it not by his wrist but by his fingers.

Youhuo glanced down.

Qin Zhu didn’t let go immediately, nor did he take it back.

After a few seconds, Gou Lian’s fingers fell apart naturally.

Youhuo rubbed the remaining warmth on his fingertips and put his hands in his pockets.He glanced around and asked Qin Jiu: “Why don’t you bet? Why do you still have requirements?”

“We are not gambling here, we want to go to the next level.”

“What’s upstairs?”

“Comprehensive area.” Qin Jiu said, “Cards, cash, and points are mixed. Let’s go up there to catch mice.”

As Qin Jiu said, half of the bustle of this resting place is real people, and half is NPCs placed by the system, including of course the gamblers in the casino.

The rats Qin Jiu mentioned were the NPCs created by the system.

They don’t participate in exams and don’t really care about scores and cards, let alone cars and houses.

You can win cards from them without any worries.

In the casino, the people who go directly to the table are veterans.

Novices always wait and see for two days.

But a certain novice named You went upstairs and occupied a table. Qin Zhuyouzai followed him and leaned towards the table.

Their faces alone are extremely eye-catching.

But Shuai can’t gamble away.

So everyone just gathered around different gambling tables and looked here, and no one planned to come over.

Until the croupier asked: “What are you two betting on?”

“Cards.” Qin Jiu said.

There are many people gambling on cards in the comprehensive area, but good cards are very limited.

There is an endless stream of people taking out “help cards” with great momentum. The old gamblers have long been numb and even want to sneer when they hear “cards”.

He really sneered.

The croupier is a typical NPC who is in line with the system and is not lovable.

He nodded with interest and said without even looking at You Huo: “Where’s the card? Show the card side and put it on the table.”

Youhuo said “hmm”, put the card on the table, and said softly: “Guaranteed.”

“What are you protecting?”

The dealer reacted for two seconds and looked over with a dull look on his face.

Qin Jiu clasped his fingers lightly and repeated clearly: “One delivery card.”

The entire complex was instantly quiet.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, then they all stretched their necks to two meters in length and reached out from all directions.

Three minutes later, everyone in the casino knew that two handsome guys had arrived on the third floor. They were crazy at a young age and actually came to gamble with “guaranteed money”.

In an instant, everyone who was not at the gaming table rushed into the general area, and there was a sea of ​​people around the table where You Huo and Qin Gu were sitting.

The dealer saw this kind of battle for the first time, and his voice trembled with excitement.

“Two gentlemen, do you want to choose a way to play first?”

“The easiest thing is to bet on odd and even numbers.”

The croupier nodded and said, “So…which gentleman or lady would like to be in this position?”

he gestured to the empty seat opposite Youhuo and Qin Zhu.

The next second, all the real candidates in the casino came over.

The croupier trotted back to the corner and said to Youhuo from a distance: “In this case, you have the absolute right to choose——”

Qin Jiu’s eyes scanned everyone and the things in their hands.

Finally one was locked in.

That was a very obvious rat.

Only Mouse dared to gamble with two good guy cards, and still acted like I was calm.

When Qin Jiu made the appointment, the whole audience went crazy.

The dealer asked blankly: “Are you here for charity? There are so many top cards in the audience, so many holding 20 or 30 points, but you picked the worst ones?”

Many candidates were shouting hoarsely, but the two handsome guys remained motionless.

The dealer took a few seconds to calm down and put the dice into the dice cup.

Examiner A, who was full of courage, was not on the front line for the first time.

He said to Qin Jiu: “Come here.”

Qin Jiu raised his eyebrows and asked, “Do you believe me?”

Youhuo: “If you don’t believe it, your luck is not much better than mine.”

Qin Jiu said “tsk”: “Then let’s gamble?”

Youhuo raised his chin, signaling for him to continue.

The candidates nearby heard their conversation and their hearts trembled.

The croupier rang the bell, shook the palm, and placed the dice cup on the table with a “pop” sound.

Qin Jiu asked: “Do you think it is an odd number or an even number?”

Youhuo: “Oh.”

Qin Jiu nodded and suppressed Qi decisively.

Youhuo: “…”

On the correct use of Koi Examiner.

Do not imitate the dangerous actions of brackets.

…

If you are not afraid of koi hitting people and are confident that you can get them back, you can give it a try.
