“Officer Shen, haven’t I been cleared of suspicion?”
Lin Chuan stopped and looked sideways at the closely-following Shen Qianqian.
“Although you’ve been cleared, you possess cheating techniques and still need to be recorded at the police station, to prevent you from using them to deceive!” Shen Qianqian said earnestly.
Lin Chuan’s mouth twitched, “Do I look like someone who would break the law and commit crimes?”
“This…”
Shen Qianqian slightly lifted her head, seriously taking in Lin Chuan’s appearance.
Standing at 186 cm tall, a half-head taller than her, with handsome facial features that made him look clean and sunny—it didn’t seem like he was a criminal suspect.
“Not really.” Shen Qianqian shook her head.
Lin Chuan let out a relieved smile.
It’s all your fault, System!
You forced me to experience these professions with heavy sentences like Thief and Swindler, so I could only release related novels.
Shen Qianqian cracked a smile, “Your skills are quite special, so there must be a corresponding record at the police station.”
Lin Chuan took a deep breath, resigning himself to the situation.
If I have to be recorded, so be it.
It’s much better to cooperate with the police comrades than to be treated as a criminal suspect!
Interrogation rooms, detention cells—they’re really not places for a person to stay.
Especially this female officer next to me, at times cold and glamorous, at times sweet—so torturous!
“Are you mentally complaining about me?”
Shen Qianqian suddenly looked at Lin Chuan, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.
Lin Chuan was startled, “Why would you ask that?”
Shen Qianqian wore a strange expression, “Intuition. Right now, you must be cursing me inside your head, especially since it was me who arrested you both times.”
“I don’t blame you.”
Lin Chuan’s words did not match his feelings, but his heart was bitter.
You’re aware that you’re the one who arrested me, right? Is there any compensation you could give?
Like, inviting me to dinner.
After being interrogated for most of the day, I’m about to faint from hunger.
“How about this, I’ll treat you to dinner tonight.” Shen Qianqian smiled beamingly.
Lin Chuan was suddenly dumbfounded, looking at Shen Qianqian with a strange expression.
Officer Shen, can you read minds?
“Not happy about it?”
Shen Qianqian blinked and asked.
Lin Chuan nodded repeatedly, “Happy, very happy.”
Shen Qianqian’s eyes were clear and bright, and she smiled, “There’s one more thing. Our Anling Police Station is about to join forces with a video platform to launch an anti-gambling campaign, and we are currently looking for candidates.”
“An anti-gambling campaign?”
Lin Chuan raised an eyebrow slightly.
Shen Qianqian nodded, “If you’re interested, try to impress us with your skills during your recording later, you might just be chosen.”
“Better not, I’m worried about a Martial World Hit Order from the casino bosses.” Lin Chuan pondered for a moment and shook his head.
Behind the anti-gambling public service campaign lies great danger.
Some influential anti-gambling advocates even face death threats from unknown sources.
Better to prioritize my safety.
Shen Qianqian pursed her lips and said with a smile, “You underestimate the power of Anling Police. Not only would they provide a 3,000 yuan subsidy for the anti-gambling advocates, but they would also ensure their safety. However, if you’re not interested, then…”
“Wait!”
Lin Chuan raised his hand to interrupt Shen Qianqian, “Officer Shen, I’ve changed my mind. I must participate in the anti-gambling campaign.”
Shen Qianqian gave him a suspicious look, “Didn’t you just mention a fear of a Martial World Hit Order?”
“Officer Shen, since you can ensure my safety, then I am reassured!” Lin Chuan declared with unwavering righteousness, his face full of noble intent, “Ahem, just to be clear, it’s not because I’m coveting the 3,000 yuan subsidy. I mainly want to see a world without gambling. This anti-gambling campaign, count me in!”
Shen Qianqian’s expression grew even more peculiar.
Lin Chuan, your change of attitude is way too fast.
The Chuan-style face change!
“Officer Shen, please take me to the recording room,” Lin Chuan actively requested to be recorded.
That’s 3,000 yuan, after all!
Ah, spit, that’s the anti-gambling campaign, I should do good deeds—it’s my unshirkable duty!
“Come with me.”
Shen Qianqian chuckled dryly.
Subsequently.
The two proceeded to the recording room for technical registration.
Inside the recording room.
The Public Security Captain, Li Bing, and the anti-gambling expert, Chen Ming, had been waiting for some time.
“Lin Chuan, we need you to demonstrate your true level of cheating techniques,” Captain Li Bing got straight to the point without beating around the bush.
“Alright.”
Lin Chuan nodded.
“Please take a seat.”
Li Bing gestured for Lin Chuan to sit down, “Officer Shen, you sit too.”
All four sat around the table.
The anti-gambling expert, Chen Ming, opened a new, sealed deck of playing cards, then expertly shuffled several times before placing it in front of Lin Chuan: “Let me introduce myself, Chen Ming, I work in the public welfare anti-gambling field, how would you like to play?”
Lin Chuan replied, “Anything is fine.”
“Then let’s play Zha Jinhua,” Chen Ming said with a smile.
Lin Chuan picked up the deck of cards, didn’t shuffle, and began to deal directly.
Starting with himself, he dealt three cards to each player, four players in total.
“Let’s just reveal our hands.”
Lin Chuan said with a smile.
Li Bing was the first to flip over his three playing cards, three Qs.
Shen Qianqian revealed hers, three Ks.
Chen Ming frowned slightly, and after a deep look at Lin Chuan, he flipped over his own cards: three As.
All three had three of a kind!
At this point, Lin Chuan smiled and turned over his cards.
The three cards were a 2, a 3, and a 5.
The 235 is the smallest hand in Zha Jinhua, but it can beat a three of a kind!
At this time, Li Bing and Shen Qianqian both looked towards the anti-gambling expert sitting opposite Lin Chuan, Chen Ming, as if by some unspoken agreement.
Chen Ming was the dealer.
Lin Chuan had not shuffled the cards; he had dealt them directly, and there were no suspicious moves noticed during the dealing.
How then had he managed to beat three players with one hand?
Both Li Bing and Shen Qianqian wanted to know the secret behind it.
Chen Ming’s face darkened, his brows partially furrowed, “Your card switching is very fast, so fast that there are no flaws, but what I don’t understand is, how did you know the order of the cards I shuffled?”
This anti-gambling expert was also a master of cheating techniques.
With Chen Ming shuffling, taking Lin Chuan as the dealer, Lin Chuan would have had a three of kind Kings, Li Bing a three of Queens, Shen Qianqian a three of Jacks.
And he, a three of Aces.
But Lin Chuan didn’t shuffle, yet he managed to change the order of Chen Ming’s deal and even dealt a 235 to beat three three of a kind hands.
This was completely beyond Chen Ming’s expectations.
Lin Chuan smiled faintly, “You shuffled five times, the first three times interlace shuffles, the last two overhand shuffles, but after each shuffle, the order of the cards stuck in my mind.”
Both Li Bing and Shen Qianqian were startled.
To memorize the order of 52 cards in his head, to deal whichever he wanted without revealing any flaws.
Was this the level of Lin Chuan’s cheating techniques?
“Shall we continue?”
Lin Chuan looked towards the anti-gambling expert Chen Ming and asked.
Chen Ming took a deep breath, acknowledging that he had met a tough opponent today, and gritted his teeth, “Let’s!”
But his initial assessment of Lin Chuan was not at all mistaken.
King of Cheating!
Lin Chuan lived up to this title.
Whether Lin Chuan or Chen Ming dealt the cards, Lin Chuan was able to consistently crush Chen Ming, without exception.
Chen Ming’s expression was very ugly, close to shutting down!
Shen Qianqian was seated below Lin Chuan.
She looked sideways at Lin Chuan, and at this moment, Lin Chuan was completely different from what she knew.
His demeanor had changed!
Lin Chuan became confident, it was a kind of absolute confidence in controlling the whole situation.
After more than a dozen rounds, Lin Chuan won them all.
At this moment, Lin Chuan looked towards Li Bing and Shen Qianqian and said with a smile, “Comrades of the police, may I take that three thousand… Err, may I participate in the anti-gambling campaign?”
