Except for Xiao Leng, the other team members couldn't understand the conversation, but the blonde-haired, red-lipped female translator was very understanding and provided translation services.
Diep Tich was secretly terrified, his face lowered, his eyelids concealing his emotions.
... In this kind of one-on-one communication situation, interpretation is not necessary. There is only one reason why they have to translate for them, and that is, the other party wants to capture some clues from their reactions.
Sure enough, although her eyes were low, she clearly felt that old man's eyes were filled with laughter as he rowed over. He seriously looked at each of them, but didn't see anything. His gaze then fell to Xiao Leng's face, who had not spoken for a long time: "Is this question difficult to answer? My friend."
"Ha ha." Tieu Lanh suddenly laughed twice, shook his head, as if denying some idea.
Noticing the old man's dissatisfied gaze, he lowered his shoulders and said softly, "I'm thinking this is international waters, and it's a strange place. If I fabricate a military or police identity, wouldn't that be a bit fake?"
The old man laughed in agreement, but said nothing.
Diep Tich raised his eyebrows, thinking to himself that these were two foxes.
In international waters, saying that one is from a certain country's military or police, to ordinary people, of course it seems false. However, from the information that Xiao Leng revealed before, she knew that the international police department had been on this ship before, and the person in charge of this ship in front of the Mafia in I country naturally also knew about this matter.
So, Tieu Lanh is on the "Ordinary People" page.
Acting naturally enough, it is difficult for the other party to distinguish between truth and falsehood.
He breathed a sigh of relief under the old man's gaze and let go: "We're not really here for money, but since we're here, we'd like to earn some money."
The old man still did not say anything, picked up the crystal cup and drank a mouthful of wine, waiting for him to say his original purpose of getting on the boat.
Xiao Leng seemed to be very reluctant to this kind of silent interrogation, and sighed: "We were both soldiers, and then we came to the M country to form a mercenary group. This time, we came here because the royal family of a certain country had four pieces of ancestral treasure stolen. The royal family's detectives investigated all the way and found this ship, but if the detective himself boarded the ship to search for it, I'm afraid it would be very difficult to survive."
"If I were to go on a boat to find him as a detective, I'm afraid it would be very difficult to survive…" The interpreter said everything from beginning to end in Chinese. Ye Xi was speechless, and he exclaimed in admiration.
In her opinion, the story Xiao Leng wrote was extremely strange. But the reason it was strange was because it sounded even more believable now.
Moreover, he also added some believable elements in the mystery, such as the specific number mentioned in the "Four pieces of treasure" saying, this kind of number easily makes people feel that the matter is real from a psychological point of view.
The old man narrowed his eyes again, using that venomous snake appearance to evaluate Tieu Lanh: "Which country's royal family?"
"We cannot comply." Xiao Leng's expression turned cold, looking very unfriendly, "We require the protection of user privacy."
"Okay, I understand, I understand." The old man smiled and asked again, "What is the relationship between jewels and the seal?"
Tieu Lanh was stunned, looking intently with a confused expression: "How do you know?"
"This is my boat, my territory." The old man opened his arms, as if publicly expressing his sovereignty.
Tieu Lanh suddenly seemed very agitated, suddenly standing up: "Where is he?"
"Calm down, my friend." The old man's eyes were filled with suspicion that he had been distracted by his over-excited actions. He waved his hand, signaling him to calm down, "Tell me first, what is going on between you and Noc?"
Xiao Leng did not pay any attention to his reassurance, his emotions were still agitated: "We spent a lot of effort to contact him, he said he had something to talk about on the boat, but once on the boat, we could not find him."
He paused, his eyes filled with anger and resentment: "We must bring the treasure back!"
"I know." The old man still signaled him to sit. He hesitated for two seconds, then sat back down.
"Well, my friend." The old man in the ashtray spat out the cigar ashes, "How should I put it, right now for you, this matter will be extremely difficult."
"First of all, I didn't know that those jewels were still in Nobu's hands——I know this sounds like a perfunctory excuse, but please believe me, I didn't know anything about jewels before, and I didn't see those things in Nobu's hands."
"... Frankly speaking, there aren't too many Asians between me and you." The old man smiled, expressing his sincerity and honesty.
Tieu Lanh nodded indifferently, showing acceptance of his words.
"Next, I will say it directly, you really shouldn't offend those Japanese people." The old man revealed a regretful smile, "This place is my territory, but their strength is also very powerful. Of course, they respect me, so they won't start a conflict with me; but I also respect them, and don't want to start a conflict with them."
"Therefore, my friend, you really shouldn't offend them." He repeated these words.
"But I have offended them." Xiao Leng leaned back, his hands spread out on the backrest, his expression calm and composed, "Thank you for your advice, but it looks like we can only go head to head from now on."
Standing behind him, Diep Tich was a bit nervous. The other party was a vicious party. She absolutely did not think that the other party made this kind of instruction out of good intentions, of course he had his own ulterior motives.
From Tieu Lanh's reaction, Tieu Lanh was also waiting for the other party below.
As expected, after seeing Xiao Leng not being afraid at all, the old man frowned: "Let's change the way we talk. Well, to complete this matter, how much money did the royal family give you? I'll give you double, in exchange for you to leave this ship directly."
Xiao Leng's eyes revealed curiosity: "I don't understand, sir. This matter has nothing to do with you, why do you want to interfere so much?"
"I said, this is my territory, I want to maintain peace here. If those Japanese people do not comply with you, then everyone will have no way to enjoy themselves here."
"Enjoy music to the fullest", these four words made Diep Tich's mood complicated.
"But this is not a previous event." Xiao Leng's face revealed a troubled expression, "We accepted this business, so we must do our best to do it well. Although the essence is to make money, but we also care about our reputation."
"Furthermore, sir, I say this, these four pieces of jewelry are of utmost importance to the royal family. If we cannot successfully return them, the royal family will definitely send someone over again——do you think you will always have to deal with this kind of matter? It would be better to let us deal with them properly, so that in the future no one will ever again disturb your enjoyment."
"You make me feel really embarrassed." The old man frowned deeply, and he muttered in an exaggerated tone, "You make me feel really embarrassed."
"Why don't I come up with an idea." Xiao Leng smiled, his expression sincere, "You just want to make sure everyone can enjoy the music to their heart's content, so chasing us away isn't the only solution——what do you think? You help me go talk to the Japanese people, tell them, we just want to find something, we're really sorry for entering their territory by mistake, we can compensate for the loss of lives, make them pay."
"If I'm not mistaken, based on this weird mechanism, if our account in the real world has cash added, it should be immediately converted into a check, right? I can immediately make an outside person deposit the money, and they can immediately check and receive it."
"That's true." The old man admitted without thinking. Xiao Leng's suggestion also made him lose the remaining doubts in his heart.
Using money to change people's fate, this kind of operation, only those talented people can reasonably mention it. On the other hand, whether it is the truly kind soldiers, policemen, or those pretending to be righteous politicians, they do not dare to blatantly and boldly put forth this kind of request.
So after thinking carefully for a while, he nodded: "Okay, I will talk to them. If they accept, I will contact you."
"Thank you!" Tieu Lanh smiled and casually touched the poker cards placed on the coffee table, "There is still something, I wonder if you are interested in betting?"
The old man was very interested: "What bet?"
Xiao Leng said: "Dezhou. Poker, three out of two wins. Aside from gambling, if I win, I hope you can give me a way to investigate the corners of the ship, so that we can quickly find those treasures and report the results of the work."
"So you have seen, the current Nac is not cooperating. In order to quickly complete the mission, we have no other choice but to look for someone outside."
"But I can assure you, we only want to complete this business. During the investigation, we will not touch anything belonging to other guilds. If it weren't for your strength, you might not let us leave the ship."
The old man pondered for a moment: "How about this? If you win, I'm willing to go talk to Noc Tap for you."
"I still hope to use the investigation as a guarantee." Xiao Leng said, "As for if you win, what conditions do you want to declare? You can suggest."
"Alright, if you don't want to give in." The old man sighed, "If you win, I will help you complete this matter. But if you lose, I require you and all your subordinates to reach the shore at the next destination and immediately leave the boat."
Tieu Lang fell into silence.
The old man smiled and said: "Do you dare to bet?"
"Okay."
After a few seconds of hesitation, Tieu Lanh accepted the request in a low voice.
The old man made a gesture of invitation, and the two of them stood up together and walked to the sofa area.
Poker table, heard that the customer wanted to play cards, immediately a dealer came over.
Xiao Leng and the old man sat at the table in two separate places. Ye Xi quickly entered the feeling of being under his control, and took advantage of the situation. After Xiao Leng sat down, he neatly placed the advantage in front of him.
But the other party was very generous. After Ye Xi retreated, the blonde girl walked over and displayed several hundred thousand advantages in front of the two people. It was obvious that she wanted to invite them to play this game.
Tieu Lanh raised his eyebrows and looked at the old man. The old man smiled and said: "If you win, you take it. If you lose, I will take it. Consider it an apology for eavesdropping in the computer room."
"So it was a wiretap..." Xiao Leng seemed to have just brought up those clues and smiled comfortably.
Dealing the cards, they destroyed a brand new deck of Poker cards. They took out two Jokers and placed them aside, then stretched out their hands and clapped them, ordering all the Poker cards in front of them to fan out evenly, and then began to skillfully shuffle the cards. The entire operation process was not only professional, but also had a very envious taste.
... But this is actually completely unnecessary. Because this dealer is clearly a weird NPC, not someone from any of their parties, and will absolutely not help any of their parties get to heaven.
After finishing the cards, the two people pressed the rules and placed a spell on them. The old man was the big one, so he had to bet ten thousand US dollars. Xiao Leng was the small one, so he only needed five thousand.
The dealer confirmed that the number of cards was correct, so they dealt two cards each, then asked Xiao Leng if he wanted to add more cards.
Tieu Lanh casually opened the two cards, and the few team members standing behind him saw that in his hand was a Q-red card and a K-red card.
In Germany. Poker, the size of the hand in the vast majority of situations has no relation to victory or defeat, but in situations where both sides hold the same hand, the size becomes the most important.
So the opening game immediately caught two big cards still can really increase confidence.
Tieu Lanh smiled faintly, pressed the magic button to add ten thousand US dollars, but did not add any more.
The team members behind him did not pay much attention to his actions, but at this moment they all tacitly maintained an expressionless face.
The old man saw that and also showed no intention of adding anything.
Both sides have equal advantages, the cards are dealt and the cards are revealed.
Germany. Poker is played by the player holding two cards, on the table there are 5 cards, equivalent to a total of 7 cards, in which 5 cards can form a separate card shape.
On the table, the process of opening cards is the first round opens three cards at a time, then each round opens one card, each round after that has a chance to add a spell.
Currently, the three cards in the yard are black peach 5, grass flower 6 and grass flower 9.
... This card is quite good, the possibility of Thuan Tu appearing, also has a chance of Co Hoa appearing.
It has nothing to do with the cards in Xiao Leng's hand.
This round, Tieu Lang signaled not to add any more notes, the old man smiled and added another ten thousand notes.
Tieu Lang was arrested and sentenced to death.
Deal the cards immediately and reveal the fourth card.
K. Herbaceous Plant
K+ herbal medicine K, Tieu Lanh has a pair of K in his hand.
He was like a newbie, his eyes couldn't help but light up, when the dealer asked, he immediately expressed his intention to add ten thousand.
The old man glanced at him, and adjusted the vase accordingly, but did not add anything.
Thursday, 5th edition.
Fan 5 + black peach 5, grass flower K + fan K, these are two pairs.
Tieu Lang smiled, heroic and majestic, adding three thousand words.
"One hundred thousand." The old man pushed the advantage forward and very gently advised Xiao Leng, "I advise you not to go all the way."
Tieu Lanh frowned: "Same."
Finished speaking, without thinking, he pushed the advantage.
The dealer nodded, signaling for both sides to start playing.
Tieu Lang had those two pairs in his hand, but the old man opened the cards, a J and a 3.
Moreover, in the yard, grass flower 6, grass flower 9 and grass flower K, just fit together into the same flower.
"I advise you too much." The old man helplessly shook his head, taking all the advantage of the cards being pushed back.
Diep Tich was watching from behind until he was dazzled: There were only two pairs, why make it so big!
Tieu Lang turned around at this moment, looked at them, and asked the old man: "Can I send my subordinates?"
"Oh, of course." The old man laughed, not minding his almost dirty actions.
Tieu Lanh stood up and made a gesture towards Vuong Tam Nhiem.
Wang Xinran instantly felt pressured——three games, two wins, Xiao Leng had already lost one game, next needed two wins, only then could they achieve their final goal.
But without waiting for her to react, Tieu Lanh's gaze shifted and fell on Diep Tich: "Okay, you come."
Before he finished speaking, the expression returned to Wang Xinran's face: "No, you still have to go."
The two people were shocked and roared at him. After listening to the translation, the old man laughed loudly: "Ha ha ha ha, don't be nervous, young man. If not, you two can come together."
Tieu Lanh turned his head, his expression a bit troubled: "This is not good..."
"It's nothing, you three go up, we also go up three, in the end whichever side wins, no matter which side, this is fair." The old man seemed very generous.
This reminded Diep Tich of the European gangster movies he watched when he was young. Although those gangsters killed without blinking an eye, they were often very gentlemanly in social situations.
"...Alright, I'm so embarrassed, making you laugh." Xiao Leng rubbed his hands together, seizing this opportunity, making Ye Xi and Wang Xinran both sit at the table. The old man also called two of his subordinates, and a 3V3 formation instantly formed in the courtyard, much livelier than just now.
The total number of people on the table increased to 6, and Wang Xinran immediately calmed down.
In Germany. Poker cards in the game, to win, the most important factors are two, one is to calculate cards, two is to observe the opponent's reaction. But in this card calculation, the big players actually cannot see the cards in the hands of other players, can only through watching their reactions to deduce what cards they have in their hands, so these two factors actually support each other.
But with only two people playing cards in the bureau, the total number of cards issued is only 9, the reactions everyone can make are also very few, so the accuracy will also be low.
Many people are not the same.
There are currently 6 people on the table, 12 cards will be dealt out, and 5 cards will be dealt out, a total of 17 cards, nearly a third of the cards will be dealt out. Everyone will take turns adding notes, the reactions of the people coming and going will also be much richer.
Just like that, through calculation the winning probability is greater.
Wang Xinran was confident in this, from the moment the first card was dealt, her brain immediately started to work at a high speed, every time a card appeared she was frantically calculating the winning odds, every time the other players expressed whether to add a spell or not, she was also combining the cards to judge what cards the opponent was holding in his hand.
20 minutes later, the second game ended with Vuong Tam Nhiem declaring three 7s, winning with no danger.
Just because of the disastrous first game, Vuong Tam Nhiem was very careful this round, winning was winning, but the stakes were not big, it could only be considered a small win.
"Not bad." Xiao Leng clearly and gently let out a breath, and said to Ye Xi and Wang Xinran, "Go rest."
After speaking, he also very elegantly grabbed two stacks of advantages and stuffed them into their hands.
The old man laughed and waved his hand to signal his subordinates to leave the gambling table. He shook his head and said, "Young man, it is very dangerous for someone like you to enter a casino."
From his natural smile, he had already relaxed by more than half. In the first game, he had been facing a great enemy because he couldn't figure out Xiao Leng's level, but now he had no more strength left.
Very soon, the dealing begins and the third round of dealing begins.
Several team members were still behind Xiao Leng, seeing that the cards in his hand were red peach 3 and black peach 4.
Next, we see that the three cards on the top are square K, black peach K and square A.
The team members all had their eyes darkened, and were all cursing Xiao Leng's bad luck, which made them boil with anger.
Then heard Tieu Lanh say: "Add one hundred thousand."
"?" The team members were greatly shocked, stubbornly not making any expression.
Tieu Lang pushed the advantage enough, smiling and looking at the old man.
Although the old man did not show any emotion, but on the issue of whether or not to take advantage of so many things, he clearly fell into hesitation.
Really good.
Tieu Lanh laughed in his heart.
This means that he has two A's in his hand.
This old man's luck was actually very good, his hand had a K and a A, and the opening move formed a K and A big gourd. Here, he was not prepared to play the royal family and the flower, and in the case of the four elements being in harmony with the flower, he was basically guaranteed to win.
But Tieu Lanh's actions made him hesitate.
Because KKK+AA gourd also has a suppressed ability.
That is AAA+KK gourd.
... Did he start with two A's?
The old man pondered briefly, feeling that this possibility was too small, and finally said: "With you."
Just the same uncle, no more uncle added, makes Tieu Lanh more confident, in his hand there are definitely not two As.
If the hand is not the biggest, there will be variables, and the mentality will also be affected by these variables, and the opponent will have the ability to turn the tables.
He maintained that faint smile, after dealing out the fourth set of cards, without even raising his eyelids, he directly said: "All-in."
The old man's eyes slightly paused, but after a moment of hesitation, he had already made his thoughts clear——the current score in the field was 1:1, this round, regardless of whether he folded or lost, the outcome would be 2:1, there was no difference.
The only difference is in the front.
His territory, of course he will not be at a disadvantage in the front.
So this time the old man reacted very quickly: "With you."
The two sides once again had equal advantages, and the dealer dealt out the final card.
Tieu Lang still did not look up, but suddenly laughed: "Last round, with a little more advantage, how about it?"
The old man's voice was calm: "What advantage?"
"If I win." Xiao Leng's mouth corners curled into a leisurely smile, "I want the lives of those Japanese people, and you help me kill them."
The old man's expression was shocked, the cigar that was still stuck in his hand was involuntarily thrown to the ashtray by him, his body also involuntarily sat up straight, looking at Xiao Leng in disbelief.
"If I lose." Tieu Lanh's words suddenly stopped, "Our lives are yours."
"Seipazzo?! ①" The old man shouted in fear.
The outcome of a game depends on money and support, and things are not the same at all.
"You just do it for money, no need to turn things into this!" The old man raised his voice.
The interpretation also followed urgently, the pace of change was very fast.
"Sir, let me explain. During the conflict with the Japanese, we actually entered their territory by mistake. However, we didn't do anything to them. They were the ones who didn't differentiate between right and wrong, and dragged us into a fierce battle."
"At this event, they had casualties, we also have."
"If you were in my position, wouldn't you think of revenge?"
The old man recovered from his excitement, his voice once again cold: "But this is my boat, I advise you not to cause trouble on my boat."
"That's right, I understand, but why would you come to me to talk? Could it be because..." Xiao Leng's eyes filled with sarcasm, "Kindness?"
Kindness, this word used in the underworld, is undoubtedly funny.
"I think, actually it's because you know, we're not easy to provoke." Xiao Leng lightly said, "Our blue Gatling flame has burned quite a few people to death, right? You want everyone to enjoy the music to their heart's content, of course you want to calm this trouble."
"So, we are equal negotiators, I have almost one step to put forward a request for rights."
He finished speaking, took out the two cards in his hand, and placed them on the table one by one: "I need more notes."
"Pazzi! ②" the old man angrily scolded.
Speaking from experience, he still did not believe that Tieu Lanh really had two As in his hands.
But what if he was wrong...
After a long while, he gritted his teeth and closed his eyes: "This matter, can't be solved with money? How many people have died, you name the price, I will make those Japanese people compensate you, how about that?"
"This..." Tieu Lanh frowned, seeming to be in conflict.
After a while, he laughed again: "Let's do this, you follow our previous agreement, ask them how much they want to pay for a human life, then based on that price, come up with a price."
"As for the numbers, we lost 12 people on this side."
The old man breathed a sigh of relief: "A word is agreed?"
Xiao Leng promptly added: "... But to investigate the matter, I hope you can still help me."
"Of course." The old man's expression was really ugly, but he still agreed, "Except for the guest room, everything else is fine, I will arrange everything for you."
"Thank you very much." Xiao Leng received a satisfied reply, the old man felt even more amnesty than him, tiredly laughed, threw the two cards back on the table: "Give up."
"Okay." Xiao Leng grabbed two cards and threw them away. The two poker cards rubbed against the table and moved towards the pair of cards in front of him, steadily disappearing.
This is comparable to magic tricks, not something that long-term gambling masters will definitely not be able to play.
In that instant, the old man's expression became extremely complicated.
"... You are not good at anything, right?" He stared at Tieu Lanh, a smile appearing in his throat.
"Well." Xiao Leng let go of his hand without any care, "This is a pearl. A poker card, sir.":, n..,.
