Armstrong was a little surprised at first, then his face turned ugly.
He felt that the young man in front of him, whom he admired very much, seemed to be a little too frivolous.
"Do you think I'm joking?"
"I said, if you press the bell but don't find any evidence, I'll chop off your hands."
Armstrong's tone had become a little fierce. The people who were playing the slot machine in the corner looked at Li Zhuo with contempt.
It seemed that this was a young man who liked to gamble on his luck. In their opinion, Li Zhuo was betting that Armstrong would cheat in the first round.
As for whether Li Zhuo could really find out that Armstrong was cheating? That was absolutely impossible.
One had to know that Armstrong was the world's top gambling master. Even when they had accepted the welcome ceremony, it was not so easy to catch him cheating.
So, Li Zhuo was definitely trying his luck.
Absolutely!
However, facing Armstrong's questioning, Li Zhuo appeared very relaxed.
His gaze directly met Armstrong's, and he did not give in in the slightest. His expression was very calm, without a trace of panic.
He was very clear that a big shot like Armstrong would not be so easily angered by humiliation.
As long as he played the game according to the rules, Armstrong would definitely be convinced. This was the reason why he was calm.
"Since I pressed the bell of doubt, then I naturally can be sure that you cheated. After all, I only have one pair of hands. If I cut them off, they would be gone."
After saying that, Li Zhuo still raised his hands as if he was joking, showing them to Armstrong.
Armstrong looked at the confident Li Zhuo and sneered. "You better really have evidence."
Hearing this, Alsop, who was sitting in front of the stage, had already helplessly covered her face.
Armstrong did indeed have superb gambling skills. Other than being a little playful, he was good at everything else. However, there was another big shortcoming, which was that sometimes his brain was not very good.
The words Armstrong used... Did he not just admit that he really cheated in the first round? Of course, it could also be because he was absolutely confident that Li Zhuo could not find any evidence.
However, this kind of thing could only be known after he had tried it.
Wilson, who was standing next to the gambling table as the dealer, looked at Li Zhuo and said, "Mr. Li, you only have one chance to find evidence of Mr. Armstrong cheating. If you can't find it, you will be considered to have lost."
Li Zhuo smiled slightly, pointed at Armstrong, and said, "I saw him change the cards with my own eyes. Go and check under the table. There should be cards hidden there."
Hearing this, Armstrong's expression immediately changed.
Wilson hesitated for a moment and then walked toward Armstrong.
Before Wilson approached, Armstrong took the initiative to take out the card he had replaced from under the table.
7 of Clubs. This card was originally Armstrong's hidden card, but it was replaced by Armstrong.
Then, Armstrong once again opened the hidden card that he had replaced.
Ace of Hearts...
In only the first round, the gambling master had changed his card type to a pair of aces.
Armstrong raised his hands helplessly as if he was surrendering. "Alright, you win this time. This is the first time I've been caught cheating so easily. To be honest, I feel very embarrassed."
"Although I still want to know, how did you do it?"
At this time, the four people who were playing slot machines in the corner also came over. Everyone seemed to be very curious about how Li Zhuo, this young man, did it.
However, in the face of everyone's gaze, Li Zhuo crossed his legs slowly and casually. He leaned against the back of the chair behind him and smiled slightly.
"I only saw it."
After saying this, everyone was slightly stunned. Everyone seemed to be deep in thought.
Only Armstrong frowned slightly. "Only saw it? Are you insulting me?" he stood up and said.
"My technique is flawless. Even if you watched it ten thousand times, you wouldn't be able to see it. How could you see it with just a glance?"
Armstrong seemed to feel that he had been somewhat insulted.
However, Alsop, who was in front of the bar counter, reminded him softly, "Armstrong, you're losing your composure. A loss is a loss. The winner has the right to mock the loser."
Hearing this, Armstrong's face turned a little red.
He did not want to do anything to Li Zhuo. In fact, the reason why these people could play together was that they did not have too much malice toward each other. They treated each other like friends.
Since Li Zhuo had passed the test of the 'welcome ceremony', he naturally became everyone's friend. Being angry out of embarrassment was not a good way to treat a friend.
Alsop looked at Li Zhuo and smiled. "Although it's hard to believe, I still want to say that you're too surprising."
"Just like when we were on the beach, you saw many details that ordinary people didn't notice with a glance. You even discovered that Armstrong's habitual hand was actually his left hand."
At this point, Alsop gave Armstrong a light glance.
Seeing that Alsop had mentioned this matter again, Armstrong looked up at the ceiling in embarrassment, as if he was avoiding the topic.
It was not a big deal for friends to keep their own secrets, but it was a little embarrassing to be exposed by others.
Seeing that Armstrong was avoiding the topic, Alsop did not care much about it. She only smiled at Li Zhuo. "However, it is indeed surprising that you can see so much at one glance."
At this moment, Li Zhuo shook his head. "No, Mr. Armstrong's technique is indeed very exquisite. Just as he said, ordinary people would not be able to tell that he cheated even if they watched it ten thousand times."
"But what if we watched it a million times?"
Hearing this, everyone was slightly stunned and looked at each other.
Armstrong could not help but ask, "what do you mean?"
Li Zhuo smiled slightly, pointed to his brain. "Nothing special. I just remembered what you did just now and watched it a million times in my mind. It's that simple."
For a moment, the entire room fell silent again.
Even Wilson, who had thought Li Zhuo was a 'big shot' from the beginning, was a little surprised at this moment.
Memorizing an image and replaying it a million times in his mind without missing a beat? Was this really something that a human could do?
Most people had the same thought, but no one questioned it anymore.
Just as Alsop had said, a win was a win, and a loss was a loss. It was that simple.
Armstrong sighed and put on a smile again, and he stood up. "Congratulations on passing the welcoming ceremony, then... Li Zhuo, welcome to Section S."
