Chapter 9 Meet Alice.

As the saying goes, nine out of ten bets are fraudulent, and the same applies to gambling machines. Merchants can adjust the odds of gambling machines at any time.

Just like the fat man who lost his cell phone, I guess he still thinks he had a bad hand!

I took a deep breath, and put the ten dollars Lucas gave me into the machine.

Then, with both hands, I bought all kinds of points. Pressing the start button, the colored lights on the machine spun around and hit the maximum odds.

I looked at the flashing lights of the machine, raised my hand and pressed the refund button. There was a loud clattering sound, and more than a hundred coins were spit out from the machine one after another.

I collected the coins and played a few more games, each time hitting the maximum odds.

As expected, I emptied the machine of the five hundred coins that the dealer had put in the machine in advance.

" Lucas! Come on!"

I shouted at the top of my lungs through the door.

Not a moment later, Lucas walked in and asked:

"What's up dude?"

I pointed smugly at the pile of coins in front of me:

"Sorry Lucas, I had a good hand today and accidentally emptied this machine! "

Lucas saw the pile of coins and was obviously stunned, not realizing I had it in me.

Lucas threw me a cigarette and lit one himself:

" Okay dude, I underestimated you, you're a high roller!"

"I won't take the money I won, this is just for entertainment!"

I said generously, in fact, I can't afford to give it up in my heart. It's more than five hundred dollars, half a month's salary.

But I heard from my cellmates in prison that when you play in this kind of black market, you live to win, but you don't live to lose.

And although I had a good impression of Lucas, it was only the second time I met him, plus Sean said that the owner of the DN Game Room and Tiger still had problems, so who knows if Lucas would turn on me!

Lucas snorted and laughed when he heard me say that:

"You're kinda funny kid, I want to make friends with you!"

"That's ..."

I said with difficulty:

"Lucas, you're a nice guy, but I heard Sean say ... that your boss and our boss have some issues! "

Lucas was amused:

"They have a problem, what does it have to do with us! What do you think? "

I nodded, Lucas had a point, not to mention I liked his personality and I did want to make friends with him.

"Drink?" Lucas asked with a raised eyebrow .

"Yeah, but not too much, I have to work this afternoon! "

When Lucas saw that I agreed, he went out and gave a few words of advice to his two boys, then took me out of the game room and into a gray Jetta parked in front of the door.

Sitting on the passenger side, the car cool let me hit a cold war, I looked at Lucas ignition, dashing gear action, the heart again came a wave of envy.

Even I think, if one day I also have a car, pocket with enough money, is not able to erase my heart inferiority complex, dare to openly, and Wu Xi Ran meet?

Thinking of this, I tentatively opened my mouth and said:

" Lucas, can you take me to the University of Memphis first? "

Lucas looked at me with a puzzled face:

"What are you doing at the University of Memphis?"

I thought for a moment and told Lucas about my desire to see Alice.

Lucas skimmed his lips after hearing that, and looked at me with a look of contempt:

"Dude, you're still quite infatuated! To put it bluntly, after three years, it's a matter of whether they remember you or not!"

"Besides, there are a lot of good guys in college, and a lot of rich guys, so maybe they've got their eye on a rich guy!"

Lucas's words seemed to hit me hard, and although I was worried about that too, I still retorted:

"She's not a gold digger!"

Lucas smiled disdainfully:

"Dude, this society, there is no such thing as a gold-digging woman, people do not worship you, only that you are not good enough, and when you have money, women around you, you will not say that those women are gold-digging! "

"Let's go, since my brother who is obsessed with me opened his mouth, I'll let you guys see each other in any case. "

I sniffed and flinched:

"Lucas, there's so many people at the university, how can you find her? You don't know her?"

Lucas smiled and didn't say anything, but started the car and drove towards the University of Memphis.

On the way, Lucas made a phone call as he drove:

"Hello? University of Memphis Registrar's Office? "Yeah.

"Uh, can you help me find a student named Alice? I'm her second uncle, and I'm bringing her something from the countryside. "

"Okay, okay! "

Lucas hung up the phone, turned around and looked at the dumbfounded me and laughed:

" It's done, Alice majored in biotechnology and lives in dormitory three! "

"Damn, you're so awesome! "

I gave Lucas a thumbs up, I have to say that this kid's brain is really fast ah, actually can think to call the Registrar's Office to find someone.

Half an hour later, Lucas's car drove into the university, asking students along the way to learn the location of the third building.

When we arrived at the third dormitory building, Lucas and I leaned on the car door together, Lucas was all gangly, swallowing clouds of fog, attracted a lot of the eyes of the female students coming and going.

I was a little embarrassed by the stares, and turned around and coughed:

"Lucas, are we just going to stand here? "

Lucas smiled:

"You, you can't even do this, what's the point of getting a date! Just keep an eye on the door, and if there's a student coming out of the building, just pull one out and ask her to help you look for Alice. "

"This ... people can be willing to help?" I smiled sarcastically.

Lucas a stout neck, from the pocket took out a hundred dollar bill handed to me:

" Take it, there's nothing money can't solve, if there is, it's not enough money! "

The corner of my mouth twitching, took the money, don't look at Lucas is not very tune, but the speech is really a few points of truth!

I took the money, walked to the door of the dormitory building, see a chubby girl walked out.

I hurriedly stopped in front of her body and smiled:

" Beauty ... Hello ! "

The girl measured me:

" classmates, you have something? "

" Well, I want to ask you a favor, can you help me find Alice? "

The girl asked:

"Which dormitory?"

"This ... I don't know!" I finished awkwardly, stuffed a hundred dollar bill into her hand and said:

" Help me out, classmate! "

The girl looked at the money, instantly changed expression, smiling eyes are gone:

"Okay, I'll be happy to help, you wait here, I go to the hostel aunt to ask! "

The girl said and turned around and went into the dormitory, I walked over to Lucas and said excitedly:

I walked over to Lucas and said excitedly, " Lucas, money really does help!"

Lucas skimmed his lips in disgust:

"Why don't you ask a nice guy, that guy just now, he looks like a tank!"

"You're not dating her, so why are you being so picky?" I disliked him, and then smoked a cigarette with Lucas.

I can only say that I think of people too simply. Lucas and I smoked half a carton of cigarettes, and waited for an hour in the freezing weather, but the fat girl didn't show up!

Lucas threw his cigarette and cursed:

"Damn, where's the trust between people? This fat girl is playing with us. "

Well, we didn't find her, and we wasted a hundred bucks. I sighed, disheartened:

"Okay, Lucas, it's not meant to be, let's go!"

I turned around and was stumped. Coincidentally, Alice came over.

She saw me also froze, but my eyes turned, in Alice's side also followed a man with a clean face ...
