Chapter 29: Unadorned Methods! Are You Suffering from Dementia? (2/5, Requesting Data)

~6 min read 1,075 words

Luo Ge, needless to say, came directly to this world and naturally had no such thing as an identity document.

Machi and Shizuku are both from Meteor City and likewise have no identity documents.

Identity documents are quite important in the Hunter World; almost everything requires them, and obtaining them privately is illegal.

So Luo Ge could only take an unconventional path, choosing to have the Tongguohei Gang obtain identity documents for them.

Coming to this casino to "provoke" was the first step; the clothes were also new ones bought before arriving at the casino.

The so-called "provocation" was simply to keep winning money until forcing the boss behind the scenes to appear.

Either they win all the casino's money.

Or they force the people behind the casino to come out.

Although the dealer was reluctant in her heart, work was work; after a "long" shake, she still placed the dice cup on the table.

Next was the time for guests to place their bets.

Luo Ge's expression remained calm; he casually placed the mountain of chips piled before him onto the nearest number—five.

Technically, people of their age shouldn't be allowed in, but since this is a gang-run casino, they don't care about age restrictions.

As long as you have money, even an infant can come.

Seeing Luo Ge place another bet, the dealer's heart skipped a beat; she felt a blur before her eyes, and even her breathing turned manual.

This person before her had already placed several bets in a row, winning every time; anyone looking would know cheating was involved.

Yet neither she nor her colleagues could see the method of cheating used by the other party, so they could only watch helplessly as the other party kept winning.

It was normal for them not to see it, because the method Luo Ge used was unusual.

Under the table,

Gaston blew a gentle breath through the table, and the dice in the cup instantly became the "five" Luo Ge wanted.

A very ordinary method, but extremely effective.

As long as there were no Nen users, no one would be able to see it; even Nen users might not be able to see it.

Because of Gaston's invisibility, even the Nen technique 【Gyo】 of a Nen user would struggle to see him.

Soon, the people around had placed their bets, most following Luo Ge and betting on five.

Some others, seeing they had won enough, simply took their chips to exchange for Zeni and left.

Just as the dealer, unable to withstand the pressure, prepared to open the lid, a deep voice came from the other end.

"The boss has ordered that the casino closes for today; escort the guests out!"

Following the sound, a burly bodyguard in a suit wearing oversized sunglasses loudly announced this.

At the same time, a group of Tongguohei Gang members in identical attire appeared on the floor, driving the guests out.

Although some were unwilling, seeing the guns at the waists of the Tongguohei Gang members, they could only "follow their hearts" and leave.

In the end, only Luo Ge and the other two remained on the spot, seemingly waiting for something.

The bodyguard who spoke first stepped forward and said, "The boss requests your presence; come with me."

His tone was very impolite.

Luo Ge's eyes grew cold; he led the two women to follow, for this was the moment he had been waiting for.

They arrived on the second floor.

The first thing Luo Ge saw was Peter sitting on the sofa, which gave off an indescribably ridiculous feeling.

Click.

As soon as Luo Ge and the other two entered, they heard the bodyguard behind them lock the main door, making no attempt to hide the bloody intent.

Luo Ge didn't even need to use his toes to think to know what would happen next.

Thud!

Before Luo Ge and the other two could make a move, Peter, with a face full of jowls and an air of thuggery, forcefully struck the ground with his cane.

With even more force than just now.

This also indirectly showed that Peter was truly enraged now.

As the head of the family, he never expected the Elara family to have grown to this extent, nor that someone so blind would dare to provoke them.

Peter placed both hands on top of his cane and said with a gloomy expression:

"Speak! Who gave you the audacity!"

"To dare to cause trouble at the Elara Casino!"

"Name the people behind you, or you can only leave on your backs!"

Peter was, after all, the head of a gang family; he was very adept at playing such small tricks.

Seeing that the troublemakers were three children, he immediately thought up a countermeasure in his heart.

First, he struck the ground with his cane when the three were "anxious" to frighten them, then used words to intimidate them.

Peter suspected these three were sent by another family to cause trouble, after all, their Elara family had a high reputation in Manhack City.

How could anyone cause trouble without some purpose?

He was not truly foolish; he was well aware of the rivalry between his own children, which was even something he deliberately orchestrated.

The reason was simple: first, to let his son hone his skills; second, he was jealous by nature and did not want to see his daughter succeed him in the future.

Instead, he wanted his daughter to become his son's whetstone; only after his son's abilities were sufficiently honed in all aspects could he succeed as the family head.

Luo Ge scratched his head, then pointed at the bodyguard standing guard by the door and said with an expression as if looking at an idiot:

"Isn't the person behind me right there? Are you suffering from dementia, or am I the one who is confused?"

Luo Ge's voice was not loud, but it was enough for everyone in the room to hear clearly.

Peter's son's face changed drastically; he never expected Luo Ge to dare speak like this, knowing that he was insulting the head of the Elara family.

Zhu Di on the other side covered her mouth to stifle a laugh, yet from the eyes she revealed, one could clearly see her amusement.

Although they had never met before, Luo Ge gave her a good first impression—at least she had long wanted to scold this old fool.
