America: I'm really not crazy

Chapter 121 Uninvited Guest

"Starting with two 9s and ending with a 9... the probability is approximately 0.00222%..."

"Close to one in forty-five thousand."

Drake said, glancing at Levi.

"It seems that the 'feeling' you're talking about isn't as simple as luck."

As he spoke, he revealed his trump card.

Square 8 and Square 3.

"I had a flush, and although I lost to Li Wei, it wasn't a small loss."

"Come on, Etris, let's see what your trump card is!"

The last two cards were "useless" for Etris; his hand was still three 10s.

Without a doubt, she lost.

Not only did they lose the ten million dollars from the Platinum Star, they also lost themselves.

So she placed her hands on the two cards, but hesitated to reveal them.

But Levi and Drake deduced the result from her reaction alone.

Li Wei snapped his fingers at the waiter.

"Could you please find me a box and pack these chips away? I'm going to play a couple more rounds in the lobby later."

After saying that, Li Wei picked up five "10000" chips and threw them to Drake.

"The extra five thousand is a tip."

Drake put away the five chips without hesitation, then sighed with emotion.

"Okay, at least we can make a profit."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Etris.

"By the way, Estelle, how about we grab dinner together after you get off work?"

Although she did lose, she wouldn't lose face, so Etricia slammed her hand on the table and started to be defiant.

"You two bastards, don't look like you've already won! I haven't even revealed my cards yet!"

Drake winked at Etris, then flipped over the deck of cards in his hand.

"Wait a moment, let me take a look..."

"Two 10s."

Li Wei, however, gave the answer directly.

Etricia's expression immediately turned sour, and she abruptly turned to look at Levi.

"This is definitely not an answer that could be obtained through calculation! What cheating methods did you use?!"

Drake, who had been examining the playing cards, also stopped what he was doing.

Then, he looked at Li Wei.

Although Etris's behavior seemed somewhat like she was angry and embarrassed, Drake actually thought so too.

Looking at the two men, one with a hint of anger and the other with a look of curiosity, Li Wei shrugged.

"Like I said in the first game—calculation and intuition."

"As for whether this counts as cheating, I think it does, but in reality it doesn't seem to."

What do you think?

Before Etricia could say anything more, Drake preemptively raised a playing card, his back to Levi.

"Why don't we test it out? You guess what this card is?"

"If you guess correctly, I will personally vouch for you on behalf of the Platinum Star."

"Or else, you'll explain your cheating method, how about that?"

Drake was pressuring him to choose, but Levi just rolled his eyes.

"Intuition is not divination; you should consult a spiritual medium for this kind of thing."

However, Li Wei then revealed the cards he had dealt.

"However, I think it's the 4 of Hearts."

Drake glanced at the 4 of Hearts in his hand.

"So, you tampered with the design on the back of the card?"

"Let me guess, when was it...?"

"Cut the cards? There's not enough time."

"Dealing cards? That's too obvious."

"So, you did it while shuffling the cards?"

Drake stared directly at Levi, while Etris had an "I knew it" look on her face.

Despite being accused, Li Wei calmly pointed to the playing cards that Drake had previously laid out on the table.

"This time it had nothing to do with intuition; I'm just not blind."

Drake subconsciously glanced in the direction Levi was pointing.

"Well……"

"Okay, my question."

Drake readily admitted, put down his playing cards, and turned to look at Etris.

"I think Li Wei is fine; perhaps he just has some special talent."

"Do I look like an idiot?"

Etricia expressed her dissatisfaction directly, then snapped her fingers and summoned a waiter.

"Get security personnel to subdue this scammer! Then call the police! Immediately!"

The waiter hesitated for a moment, but after glancing at the cards on the table, he nodded.

"Etricia, you're breaking the casino rules. Don't you plan to continue working in this industry?"

Drake offered some words of dissuasion.

Etricis gritted her teeth.

"My career may be over, but I can't let Tessa suffer an injustice."

"She gave me this opportunity when I was at my lowest point, and I must fulfill my responsibility!"

Li Wei, who had remained noncommittal until he heard the name "Tessa," frowned.

After a moment's hesitation, he asked Etris a question.

"Even if Tessa was laundering money? Fraud? Or even if she was the one 'cheating' on the Platinum Star?"

Idris immediately began to berate Levi.

"I will not allow you to slander Tessa!"

Seeing this, Li Wei didn't say anything, but silently reached his hand under the card table.

"Bang!"

A sound like a fist striking wood rang out, and then when Li Wei reached out, he threw something that looked like a black box onto the table.

"X-ray equipment, so do you still insist on your opinion?"

Etricia scoffed.

"This was done by Julian Drake, the former 'boss' of the Platinum Star."

"These things have never been used since Tessa took over."

"Now it's my turn to ask you, what else do you have to say?"

Li Wei frowned.

Because he discovered that the facts seemed to be as Etris had said.

At least, he hasn't found any evidence that these devices have been activated.

But then, Li Wei's brows relaxed.

If what Etris says is true, then this is undoubtedly a good thing for Levi—he can play to his full potential without worrying about the other party cheating and causing him to lose everything.

However, after seeing Levi's reaction, Etris did indeed misunderstand.

"What right do you, you shameless bastard, have to laugh at Tessa?"

"Don't think that just because you share the same name as my 'Big Boss' I won't have someone beat you up!"

Li Wei immediately grasped the key information.

The big boss...

There's a hidden mastermind behind the Platinum Star, someone who even shares the same name.

Li Wei felt a throbbing pain in his temples, as if some memories were trying to flood into his mind, but he couldn't recall them at all.

However, he will soon no longer have to worry about this issue.

"Bang!"

With a muffled thud, four heavily armed men kicked open the door to the VIP reception room and walked in, guns at the ready.

Li Wei was quite surprised when he saw this.

Aren't these security personnel using a bit too much firepower?

Each person was equipped with an assault rifle, tactical grenades on their waist, and one person even carried an extra heavy machine gun.

Is this a security guard or a combatant on the battlefield?

However, at that moment, Etris's voice made Levi instantly alert.

"Who are you?!"

When Eris saw those people clearly, she immediately exclaimed in surprise.
