Blackstone Code

Lynch likes casinos not because he likes to gamble. Ever since he lost five yuan in gambling for the first time and felt distressed for a long time, he realized that gambling has nothing to do with him.

He is not a person who likes gambling, nor can he be obsessed with it. What fascinates him is actually the various aspects of life in the casino.

He has met a gambling master, a real master, the winning rate of this master is very high, either the kind of cheating, or the kind of really relying on some kind of mysterious and mysterious strength.

After Lynch made friends with him, he told Lynch that he actually didn't have much experience and that his way to win money was to observe.

Observing each person's subtle expression changes, quickly analyzing an efficient and reliable observation mode through several observations, and then bringing the next game into this mode, he can easily avoid all possible The probability of him losing money greatly increases the probability of himself winning.

Everyone has a subconscious change when they get good cards or bad cards. Some physiological changes are beyond human control, such as the contraction and dilation of pupils, such as sudden changes in breathing habits.

In addition to these, there are also some small movements, such as small movements of the hands, such as small movements of the eyes, such as sudden adjustments to the sitting posture.

In fact, the first instinctive thought of people with good cards is to hide their true state, but it is this state of wanting to hide that often betrays them.

Lynch's observation ability also began to improve at that time. After he won a person's money by observing the changes in the expressions of gamblers, he began to like this place.

Everyone expresses emotions in different ways. This is a very interesting game. You have to find that pattern, then verify your guess, and finally take away the money in other people's pockets.

Winning or losing money is no longer important, it is just an insignificant addition.

Helen was pulled by Lynch before she realized what she was doing, and she followed Lynch and exchanged twenty yuan for chips - only one chip.

On this luxury cruise ship, cash and chips have the same value, and where cash can be used as a payment method, chips have the same value and power.

It is worth noting that generally speaking, all the chips on the cruise must be redeemed before disembarking. Even if some passengers plan to participate in the next year's cruise, it is not recommended to keep these chips.

Because in the next year, in order to prevent some people from being cautious, the cruise ship will use new chips.

In recent years, technology has become more and more developed, and various things that people have never encountered before are happening frequently.

Forged cheques, counterfeit currency, counterfeit chips... There are all kinds of things. What's more annoying is that people can't find out at the beginning, and people will always suffer losses.

Many casinos will replace a batch of chips with new anti-counterfeiting marks every once in a while to prevent some people from making profits by counterfeiting chips, but there are still some people who can keep up with the speed of the casinos changing chips.

Fortunately, the casino on the cruise ship does not need to worry about this, and the chips used every time you go to sea are different from the last time.

At this time, the chip in Lynch's hand was a brand new chip. The green lace and the twenty in the middle represented its value.

"Is one enough?" Helen looked at the only chip in Lynch's hand and expressed her distrust.

Compared to the girl's less confident question, Lynch seemed more confident, "That's enough!"

Helen looked at Lynch with some admiration. During this period of contact, Helen was attracted by Lynch's self-confidence that could not be ignored. What was even more attractive was that he seemed to be always right and would never make mistakes. Every decision he makes seems like he doesn't have much thought, but he always gets stuck on the right point.

A man who will never make mistakes, this is the image Lynch returns to Helen's heart. At this time, Lynch said that a chip of twenty yuan is enough, so it must be enough. She firmly believes in this.

She even believed that as long as Lynch was willing, he could win the cruise ship with a twenty-dollar chip, as long as the other party gave him such an opportunity.

But soon, she found that she didn't know Lynch as well as she imagined. He always brought some incomprehensible freshness to people, as well as surprises that I didn't know if they were surprises.

"You... seem to have lost." Standing on the edge of the gaming table, watching Lynch put the only chip in the betting area, and then watching the croupier take that chip away, without any accidents or reversals.

Lynch nodded casually, "Yes, I lost." He admitted it directly, without giving himself any reasons, and he admitted it happily.

"I thought..." Helen didn't know how to express her inner feelings, "I thought you said 'one chip is enough' to mean that you can always win money with one chip!"

She really thought so. The confidence on Lynch's face and his relaxed tone gave the girl great confidence, making her firmly believe that Lynch could still perform miracles.

But... this was my first time betting and I lost, which is a bit unacceptable!

Lin Qi nonchalantly greeted the other players at the gaming table, stood up, and walked towards the back with the girl, "I've said enough. Every time I come to the casino, I only play for twenty yuan." , definitely not more than twenty yuan.”

"You don't really think I can win countless dollars with twenty dollars and one chance, do you?"

"If I can really do that, I don't need to do anything now. Casinos all over the world will send a lot of money to me every year!"

His smile always made Helen feel that she was being deceived by her own stupid thoughts. She didn't know how to answer, but instead felt that she was really stupid, and the questions she asked were quite embarrassing.

He walked in front and said as he walked, "The interesting thing I'm telling you is about the ring. Do you know boxing?"

The girl nodded, "I know, but I don't really like to see it."

Lynch continued to walk, and the two passed through most of the casino and entered the second half of the casino. People surrounded a cage, and the people inside were fighting hard.

Every physical attack is likely to spread more blood on the ground, and the ground of the arena is already stained red with blood.

Two people who were not too young were facing each other.

They were panting heavily, and there was a cut on one of the browbones. Although there were simple bandages and stitches, blood continued to flow out.

Both men had done their best and they looked tired.

Everything here is not as technical as the arena and fighting in TV or movies. Two people who never seem to know fatigue can dodge each other's attacks with various tricks, fighting back and forth.

Here, there is none, only punches to the flesh.

Lin Qi found a good seat and waved to the girl, then sat down.

Cruise ship staff brought him a betting form so he could place bets or just watch.

Helen was a little afraid to look at the two people fighting in the iron cage. She asked in a low voice, "Will anyone die?"

"Death?" Lynch shook his head, "Of course not. This is not a novel or a movie. Not so many people will die here."

"Injury is allowed, but death is not. The federal government will not allow accidents like death. If the cruise line doesn't want to cause trouble, it's best not to do that."

The federal law is very strange. Sometimes you can say that it is a law made by a group of lunatics. It is not serious or sacred at all.

For example, in the local law of a certain area, there is a clear regulation that people cannot put more than three toy ducks in the bathtub, otherwise they will be arrested and prosecuted.

But sometimes federal laws seem very serious, and that's when it comes to dealing with life.

Liberty, the love of liberty, and the respect for the subject of liberty - human beings and life, run through the entire law, sanctified by something that people cannot see, human life is precious and sacred, and no one can easily Take the lives of other people, including the law itself (later capitalists made people believe that private property is also sacred and legally equivalent to life).

This is also the reason why with the progress of society, people have begun to abolish the death penalty on a large scale, because even the law and the executioner do not have the power to take the life of others.

The only one who can take away people’s lives is God. God has given people life, so naturally he can take it away, but no one else can!

Including a cage fight on a cruise ship, it's best not to have that happen if the cruise company doesn't want to get into big trouble.

Hearing that no one would be injured but no one would die, the girl's expression immediately eased a lot, but she still didn't dare to look at the two people attacking each other in the iron cage.

"I keep telling myself that if I don't work hard, then one day I will stand inside." Compared to the girl who was hiding her eyes and dared not look at it, Lynch looked at it seriously.

"Only at this time, here, do you understand the despair that poverty brings to people."

"These people don't go in and beat a stranger hard, or get beaten hard by a stranger, because they like it, to please those around them, people like us."

"They just have to make money this way because they are poor, because they have no other options, and they are desperate."

"Watching them suffer, bleed, struggle, and resist inside can inspire me to never stop!"

"Because as soon as I stop and get passed, I might be the next one to be trapped in the cage."

Lynch turned his head to look at the girl in a daze, "Actually, we are all the same, we are all running, we can't stop, we all know this, so I cherish everything I have now. "
