The Casino Caper (A.K.A. The Dumbest Heist Ever)

The mission was supposed to be simple.

Infiltrate the casino. Steal the target's keycard. Get out.

But they forgot one important factor.

Crimson is an idiot.

Entering the Casino

The squad stepped into the fanciest casino in town, dressed to the nines.

• Crimson wore a crimson suit with sunglasses, looking like a discount James Bond.

• Kai looked normal—mostly because he refused to let Crimson pick his outfit.

• Kazuki adjusted his tie and sighed. "Let's just get this over with."

• MJ had already disappeared.

• Leon was too busy winking at every woman who walked by.

"We're professionals," Kai muttered under his breath. "Just find the target, steal the card, and—"

Kai turned his head.

Crimson was already at the roulette table.

Crimson's Gambling Problem

"ALL ON RED!" Crimson slammed all their mission money onto the table.

Kazuki choked on his drink. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!"

Crimson grinned. "Trust me, I have a system."

"…You don't have a system."

"I HAVE A SYSTEM."

The ball landed on black.

"NOOOOOOO—"

MJ Gets Banned from Poker

Meanwhile, MJ had somehow found himself in a high-stakes poker game.

With actual mafia members.

And he was winning.

"Wow," MJ said, collecting his chips. "I should cheat more often."

One of the seven-foot-tall mafia men cracked his knuckles. "What was that?"

MJ smiled. "I SAID I SHOULD… uh… eat more… often?"

Kazuki facepalmed from across the room. "We're gonna die."

Kazuki Accidentally Hacks the Security System

Kazuki had one job—shut off the alarms if something went wrong.

Instead, he accidentally turned off the casino's entire security system.

And by accident, we mean he spilled his drink on the keyboard.

Every vault door unlocked.

Every slot machine malfunctioned.

Every alarm failed.

"Uh-oh," Kazuki muttered.

Kai grabbed him. "What did you DO?!"

"Okay, so, in my defense… it wasn't my fault."

"You literally pressed the wrong button."

"I was panicking!"

Leon's Romantic Disaster

Leon was having a great time.

He was at the bar, whispering into a woman's ear. "So, beautiful, what brings you here tonight?"

Before she could answer, a deep, terrifying voice spoke behind him.

"That's my wife."

Leon turned.

A six-foot-five mafia boss glared down at him.

Leon laughed nervously. "Hey, man, let's not fight over small things—"

The mafia boss pulled out a gun.

Leon, still trying to flirt, winked at the boss. "You're kind of handsome, too."

The Escape (a.k.a. Crimson Fixes Everything in the Worst Way Possible)

Kai was about to punch Crimson in the face for losing their mission money when the entire casino went into chaos.

• Security was after MJ for cheating.

• Leon was running from an angry mafia husband.

• Kazuki had somehow triggered every jackpot machine at once.

Kai sighed. "This is why I hate my life."

Then, Crimson reappeared.

With a flamethrower.

"…Where did you get that?" Kai whispered.

Crimson lit it up. "Casino gift shop."

"THAT'S NOT A THING—"

The next five minutes involved:

• Crimson setting off the sprinklers.

• MJ stealing chips mid-chase.

• Leon jumping out a window.

• Kazuki pretending he wasn't involved.

They barely escaped.

Their target? Gone.

Their mission? Failed.

Their bans from the casino? Permanent.

Crimson, soaking wet from the sprinklers, grinned. "Well, that could've gone worse."

Kai just stared at him.

"…I hate you."
