After dealing with security, Leng Xuan did as he had before, pushing open the safety passage’s door just enough to peer through. Soon, he realized this floor was a casino with lavish decorations and a complete assortnt of gambling equipnt. Nearly everyone inside dressed in suits and leather shoes, all looking the part of successful individuals. Of course, there were also a few young and wealthy second-generation rich kids.
No wonder there were so many luxury cars in the underground parking lot—most people were probably here for the casino. After watching for a while, Leng Xuan noted that the casino’s service was pretty good, with almost every male patron accompanied by a woman who might be either pure, enchanting, or delicate in appearance, dressed quite scantily.
Leng Xuan pricked up his ears and faintly heard people at a table playing Texas Hold’em talking about tens of millions—ten million, several tens of millions—even causing him to inwardly exclaim that the stakes here must be very high. If one didn’t have a few billion, he wouldn’t dare to co in.
While he was pondering this, he suddenly heard an angry gambler close by yelling at the croupier, "You’re cheating; otherwise, how could it be big ten tis in a row without a single small? Give back my money."
The croupier spoke with a mild tone, "Sir, this is a bet on the size, and anything can happen. Although it’s rare to have ten of the sa outcos in a row, it does happen, so please do not make a scene without reason."
At that mont, everyone in the casino turned their eyes to the scene. The gambler, red-faced with rage, retorted, "What do you an by making a scene without reason? I’ve just lost three or four billion—that’s all of my fortune. If your casino wasn’t cheating, how could I lose it that quickly? Let tell you, return the money to right now, or your casino won’t be able to stay open for much longer."
Hearing the gambler’s threat, the croupier let out a disdainful chuckle. He had heard such claims far too many tis, yet the casino continued operating as usual. With a gesture, two n in suits approached and stood on either side of the gambler, speaking coldly, "Sir, since you have no more funds to gamble with, please leave imdiately."
"What do you an by that?" the gambler said hotly. "When I had money, you welcod in like a lord, and now that I’m broke, you’re throwing out like trash. Do you think I’m easy to bully? Tell your boss that if I don’t get my money back today, I’m not going anywhere."
The man in the suit spoke expressionlessly, "Since you refuse to leave willingly, don’t bla us for not being polite." After that, he and the other man forcefully grabbed the gambler’s arms, lifted him off the ground, and escorted him out of the casino. The other gamblers seed to be accustod to such scenes, and things quickly went back to normal.
Leng Xuan shook his head in secret. A casino could be described as a place of dramatic rises and falls. So people beca rich overnight, surrounded by luxury cars, beautiful won, and servants. Others went from riches to rags in one evening, ending up on the streets. And not a few lost their minds, unable to handle the stress of winning and losing. Therefore, gambling had always been strictly prohibited by the state.
After scouting the area for a while, Leng Xuan continued toward the fifth floor. Now, he was sowhat looking forward to it—the third floor dealt with drugs, the fourth with a casino, so what would the fifth floor hold?
With curiosity, Leng Xuan carefully made his way to the fifth floor’s safety passage entrance, where he encountered no security staff. Sowhat surprised, he pushed open the safety door and found that it led to a long corridor, seemingly filled with several independent rooms, unlike the spacious hall below.
