Chapter 70 Victory
Horrified at blackjack in hand, but shrugged on the surface , trying to keep his face calm, and in addition to Rwanda Baron, the onlookers have begun to congratulate.

In the second round, Shade saw that the opponent's first two cards totaled 11, and the third card directly exceeded 21, so the two cards in his hand totaled 16 and he gave up and continued to ask for cards.

The expression on the opposite side of Baron, Rwanda, is not right.

In the third round, Shade couldn't remember what the opponent's card was, but when he saw that his own card was the king, he was shocked again and almost couldn't help looking around.

Because the open card is "King", so I didn't touch the hole card again. And Baron, Rwanda, did not have the luck to draw the king and queen, nor the luck to draw 21 points and lose again.

In the fourth round, Shade's card is the queen
"Are you doing something?"

Even he couldn't help asking the voice in his head.

[The 'other me' of the ring warlock cannot interfere with reality. ]

"But you are not the usual situation."

[I am special because of you, and I cannot directly interfere with reality. And even if I could, why would I interfere with the game? ]

The murmured voice answered in my mind, still so sweet. Shade also thought that the other party was not so boring, so he believed the other party's words, but Baron of Rwanda obviously did not believe Shade.

He gasped for breath, looking at the queen on the table amid the excited discussions around the table, before asking for a re-examination of Lavender Baron's deck. And after the inspection, another person shuffled the cards for the fifth round. The suspected original shuffler, Mr. Candela, was very unhappy because of this, standing under the grape trellis and sulking.

"Detective, I don't care if you are lucky or otherwise, at least this time I won."

With only two cards, Rwanda Baron said, The "king" who opened the hole card is displayed.

A card that has just been used cannot be added to the hand, at least not this hand. So the deck on Shade's side already has "King" and "Queen" impossible, so unless he has 21, it is impossible to win the round.

Shade's up card was the 13 of the sun, and the open card was the 13 of the suit. People immediately exclaimed excitedly, not because the young detective finally lost, but because the flower 13 of Lavender's Baron deck was a special rule card [Northern City Artek City].

According to the rules, Shade can roll a dice, and once the dice is 20, he can draw a new card. In the current state, if it weren't for 20 points, he did lose this round.

Of course Shade wouldn't play this game with the twenty-sided dice of fate he held. exposure to ivory products.

The people around held their breath immediately, Shade didn't understand their excitement, after all, even if the dice weren't 20, he was leading the third round four-to-one.

With a slight toss, the white ivory dice twirled on the stone table. People craned their necks in unison, and when the number 20 stopped up, Shade was really worried that Lavender Baron on his left would have a heart attack from being too excited.

"We will talk about this match until the end of this year."

Sir Lavender, with a beautiful mustache, said shiveringly:

"I've never rolled a 20 since I got this card."

Shade shrugged, not questioning his opponent's bad luck. He took his next card and knew the result without having to look it up:
"If this card was an 8 of any suit I would have made enough to win at 21, but that kind of luck is definitely not right. ”

Taking advantage of the dim light of the candles on the stone table, after tilting his head and taking a look from below, he hesitated to observe the expression of his opponent, Rwanda Baron, to make sure that the opponent would not have a sudden cerebral hemorrhage. Flip the sun 8 over.

Maybe this match can be talked about by the Rhodes players who are on the scene until next year.

"You really didn't interfere in the game?"

He asked in a low voice again, and then it seemed like a woman was lying in his ear and whispering. This phenomenon is very strange, because there is obviously no such space behind him:
[Even if I have this ability, why should I do such a boring thing? ]

"But the current situation is obviously not normal!"

He smiled and accepted people's congratulations, while thinking in the heart that the ring warlock is probably proficient in doing two things like this at the same time.

[You can think, what is the reason that may cause such abnormal luck? ]

Shade got the answer almost immediately, it's so obvious that he came to this world with not much experience:
"Twenty-sided dice of fate? Twenty dice thrown. , a good thing must have happened because of this? But why is the Rhodes card luck better? What does that have to do with it? Also, the meaning of the dice has to be clearly revealed to me, right now it's just speculation."

Shade The win also represented Lavender Baron's two out of three wins, and although he didn't win his first game, he did win the Rhodes card.

Although Baron, Rwanda, was not lightly enraged by Shade's last sun 8, but very graceful, according to the agreement, the Rhodes card with special rules and special card face [Ancient Fairy Tale Match Girl] ] to Shade and 20 pounds in cash to Sir Solar.

This Baron actually took so much cash for an open-air banquet.

Rwanda Baron has nothing negative to say about Shade despite the loss. On the contrary, he shook hands with Shade very enthusiastically and invited him to play Rhodes together. Of course, Shade agreed perfunctorily.

"This card, but it took me a lot of work to win."

Baron glanced at Lavender Baron as he handed the Match Girl to Shade. Lavender Baron was the previous master of poker, and Rwanda Baron was clearly trying to piss him off.

"You must keep it, and hope to see it in your hand next time you play cards together. Detective Hamilton, if you don't want to keep this card and want to sell it, must Contact me first, even if I borrow money, I will definitely buy it. Of course, Rhodes hobbyists like us, it is impossible to sell special cards at will."

Said and glanced at it. Lavender Baron, apparently warning the other side that his reputation may be in jeopardy if he takes this card from Shade.

The mustache Baron, who was congratulated by his friends under the grape trellis, raised his head slightly:
"Of course, Shade, you must take good care of this card."

He and Shade's relationship should not be good enough to be called directly by name, and this sentence means that Shade will temporarily serve as a card keeper for a while.

"Of course, I'll keep it safe."

Shade tucked the cards into his notebook, which he put back in his coat pocket.

Of course, Lavender Baron will not talk to Shade about the [Ancient Fairy Tale Match Girl] at the banquet, but he wants to invite Shade to spend the rest of the banquet together after this match. .

It's a pity that Shade was still thinking about Dr. Schneider, so he could only decline Baron and his friends. After leaving the grape trellis, while thinking about his inexplicable good luck, he walked along the road where the doctor left just now.
