Chapter 184 (1/2)
The roulette can bet on colors, numbers and colors. The odds are higher one by one. Just when there was one, a gambler bet a black 7. If he won, the odds would be 36 times. Moreover, the little ball almost turned to the number and almost stopped, In the end, he stopped next to this number, totally wrong in the past.
Ordinary people may not be able to see the trajectory of the ball, but Ian is always feeling the ball with the mental field open. He always feels that the ball seems to be abnormal. When he is about to stop, he seems to be pushed by some subtle force.
Even if there is no evidence, Ian can also know that this NIMA must be a gambler, because the Dutch official is the dealer.
After watching a lot of them in succession, Ian found that although most of the time nothing happened, once there was a high multiple bet, the trajectory of the ball would be abnormal.
Ten bets and nine swindles. This is true. Ian knows very well that casinos usually have their own means. This is not strange, but what makes Ian despise is that most of the gamblers here bet on such a small amount as hundreds of Bailey. Even such a small amount, casinos still have to do bad things!
After watching for a while, Ian was not interested. He began to turn around and stay in front of each gambling table for a while, trying to listen to the gamblers' conversation.
He found that most of the gamblers who appeared here looked rather shabby, but there were also a small number of pirates.
Before long, Zick and they came back with some information that they could inquire about.
Before, Ian felt a little strange. It seems that such a luxurious casino, how to get in and out here, but there are no local tyrant guests. After collecting some information, Ian suddenly found out that there is a reason.
Because most of the gamblers here are men from the village!
As I said earlier, this island has no magnetic force. The navigators on the sea can't come to this island through the recording pointer. Only those who have charts or know the location of this island can come here.
This leads to the fact that the number of customers in casinos is quite small.
However, it is impossible for the casinos to close down at a loss when they are open, so the casinos set their targets on the villages on the island, attracting men from the villages to gamble here.
Zick pointed to a decadent looking uncle sitting in front of a gambling table and said, ”that man is from the village at the foot of the mountain. I bought him a glass of wine and talked with him for a while. Then he told me everything. This island was originally a very peaceful village. In the early years, it could be called living and working in peace and contentment, but since the casino opened four years ago, It's all changed. The men are attracted by the casinos. They don't work in the fields any more. If they lose money in gambling, they sell their things to the casinos or borrow money to continue gambling. Once they come and go, the village will be in complete decline. ”
Hearing this, Ian thought of the scene he had just seen in the village. He couldn't help shaking his head and said, ”rabbits don't eat grass at the edge of the nest. In order to make money, this casino really ignores everything!”
”Who's the boss behind the casino, do you know?” Asked Ian.
