What to do if the charm is too high

Chapter 24 Assassination is an art!
Bearded Hawk VS Mangy Wood.

On the gambling table, face-to-face confrontation.

In the first game, Hawke lost.

Although he only lost on the points on the board, 10 golden chips were drawn to Wood.

A mere 10 gold coins is nothing to Hawke, who has a net worth of more than 200.

But his winning streak was broken, and he immediately lost in momentum.

The trend of public opinion has changed accordingly.

"Wood used to be the most vicious gambler in Lording City. He has gambled with others no less than seven or eight times just by gambling!"

"Wood is the most powerful player in the casino. Although he hasn't played for a long time, his gambling skills don't feel unfamiliar at all."

……

Across the gambling table, Wood grinned wide, revealing half of his missing back molars, "Boy, it's too late to regret it now, I think you're good, come with me, I promise you will get more than you have now."

"But I definitely want more than you promised."

The bearded Hawke snapped his fingers to signal the croupier to re-deal the cards.

This time, Hawke's expression became serious, and he grabbed a few chips and threw them to the girl next to him, telling her to get out.

The girl was a little embarrassed, and she probably wanted to stand here for a while longer.

At this time, someone in the corner on the second floor shook his head slightly, and the girl squeezed out of the crowd with her arms folded.

She lowered her head, trying to keep a low profile.

But when he reached the gate of the casino, he ran into a thug and was taken into a dark room.

She is not tall and has one eye. The person waiting for her is one-eyed Tom.

"Snapped"!
With a slap in the face, Tom widened his one eye and shouted: "Have you forgotten your identity, you lowly woman!"

The girl fell to the ground in response. Because of her fair skin, the five fingerprints were exceptionally clear.

There was also a golden chip that fell along with it. The girl wanted to pick it up, but the thug behind her stepped on it.

"Hand over all the money, if you don't want me to search you."

The muscular thug smiled and said to Mimi, "I know you're worth a lot now, but it's okay to touch two."

One-eyed Tom said, "Go away!"

The thug turned and closed the door.

Before closing the door, Daphne heard cheers coming from the casino again, and someone shouted the name of "Wood". Obviously, Wood won the second game again.

Don't I have a chance to leave hell in my life? ... Daphne thought sadly as she took out the golden chips one by one.

……

In the middle of the hall, Wood's gang was the loudest.

Their boss is in excellent form tonight, although it is only two points to suppress.

Anyone who knows the profession of [gambler] knows that the smaller the gap, the more skillful it is.

"How about it, still playing? Or exchange the chips on your table for money, and run away with your tail between your legs?"

Wood touched the scar on his eye, picked up a chip and flicked it into the air, and then firmly received it in his hand, "Go away, kid, this is not the place for a coward like you to come!"

Hauke ​​said angrily: "I know you are motivating me, but the goddess of luck cannot always favor you!"

At this time, his chips still exceeded 100, and he bet all the integers, with odds and ends scattered.

"Whether I win or lose this game, they all belong to the audience. Remember my name, I am Hawke from Soto City!"

The croupier dealt one card to each player, Hawke got 3 and Wood got 5.

The two nodded to indicate to continue, Hawke 2, Wood A.

The exciting moment is coming. If Wood wins the third game, tomorrow's newspaper will definitely write: Lording City's number one gambler is back to the top.

It is conceivable that even if Hawke can walk out of the casino, some people will still not let him go.

But if Hawke wins, not only can he get back all the money he lost before, but it is not a big problem to double it.

Just leave Luoding City, go to the countryside to buy a piece of land, and live the rest of your life in peace.

"Who do you think will win?"

"I think it's Hawke's win."

"P, have you ever seen Wood lose?"

"No."

"So do you still need to think about it?... I can only blame Hawke for being too greedy. If it were me, I would win a hundred gold coins and leave immediately."

"Please win one hundred silver before saying this, thank you."

The third card is dealt by both hands of the croupier, an A in the left hand and a 2 in the right hand.

For the fourth card, Wood buckled and Hawke buckled.

"Do you have anything left to raise?" Wood asked.

Hawke took off the sapphire ring, "This is left to me by my grandfather, it is worth at least 10 gold!"

Looking along the ring to the stack of chips, Wood laughed loudly, "It's worth 10 gold, right? I'll give you 100, and the last card will be dealt!"

"唰", "唰", all five cards in the hand have been dealt!

The audience desperately looked in the direction of Hawke, because he had less chips and opened the cards first.

Hawke, show your cards!
"Hmph, as I said, the goddess of luck will not always favor you."

3、2、2、2、2，四张数字相同的牌，组合在一起相当劲爆。

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

Wood on the opposite side threw out two aces, five cards 5, A, A, A, A, completely crushing Hawke's cards!
"I'm lucky with gambling today, no one can stop me, hahaha!..."

Wood burst out laughing, and his younger brothers laughed too. The audience around him laughed together and echoed, "Wood is the number one gambler in Lording City, and Hawke is a P!"

At this time, Hawke, who should have been disheartened, took back his ring at some point, put on his bowler hat, turned and left the gaming table, and exchanged 10 chips with the lowest face value for the original 1 silver coin.

Walking out of the casino, he threw the red, jumping thing hidden in his sleeve to the wild dogs on the side of the road.

The red object was full of bloody smell, and the wild dogs went crazy when they saw it.

At the moment of shattering, Wood fell to the ground and died.

During the day of the next day, the forensic doctor found that Wood's heart had disappeared inexplicably after an autopsy.

There were no wounds on his skin, and no damage to any internal organs except the heart.

The matter was beyond the scope of medicine, and the forensic doctor immediately submitted the autopsy report.

Among them, the cause of death read: His heart was stolen.

……

After taking off the disguise of human skin mask, beard, wig, etc., Hawke from Soto City turned back into Tina, a salesperson of Zegna Tailor Shop in San An Village.

Her assassination mission was successfully completed, leaving no trace of her true identity.

Twice throwing money, two [sales] skills, the audience who picked up the money for the first time helped her call out Wood, and the second time the name "Soto City Hawk" was firmly engraved in their minds.

【Sale】It must be an exchange of equal value, such as 1 copper plate for a piece of hard bread.

However, transactions approved by both buyers and sellers are considered equivalent exchanges.

If Wood says his life is worth 1 copper coin, and Tina gives him 1 copper, and Wood accepts it, then he must give his life to Tina.

Of course, the operation of buying one life for one copper is only theoretically feasible, and no one in the world is so stupid as to sell himself so cheaply.

The skill of stealing Wood's heart is the signature skill of Tina's second professional thief [Stealing].

There are many factors that affect the success rate of theft.

Every time Tina gambled, she would kiss the sapphire ring. From then on, a hypnosis for all the people in the casino began.

The hypnotized person will definitely not be able to find out that Tina used [Steal] to change cards secretly.

　Miss Tina is here to steal the recommendation ticket~
