Chapter 2033: Chapter 2129: Firewall

His hands flew over the projection keyboard, and after about five minutes a new interface suddenly popped up in front of him—that was the full monitoring system of the entire Gambling House. It had actually been very hard to hack in before; the other side had installed a super strong firewall, so what Su Xuan needed was decoding to crack it. Just now he had actually been stuck in the decoding phase, and that part took a long time!

Once all the cameras appeared, Su Xuan quickly started searching. He needed to find where Wang Zicong was; only after he knew exactly where the guy was would he have any confidence about saving him later!

Sure enough, as Su Xuan flipped through the feeds, he suddenly saw a room in the footage where a man was being held. The man was lying on the bed; zooming in, it really was Wang Zicong. A surge of excitement hit Su Xuan—he’d finally found that bastard. The guy actually looked pretty pathetic, curled up in the corner like a dead dog; he’d probably taken a lot of punishment.

There were two people guarding outside.

While checking the other camera views, Su Xuan quickly concluded that this guy was being held in a space between walls on the third floor of Tyrannosaurus. If not for pulling up the surveillance, Su Xuan felt it would’ve been really hard for him to discover this room!

The reason he said that was because the design gave off an eerie vibe: there were three rooms lined up together, but from the outside it looked like there were only two. The room where Wang Zicong was held sat in the interlayer formed between the two rooms. That room was really small; if Su Xuan didn’t happen to be very sensitive about numbers and spatial layouts, he simply wouldn’t have noticed this at all!

Even though Su Xuan saw that Wang Zicong was inside that room, it still took him more than ten minutes to fully analyze where exactly Wang Cong was. At first he thought Wang Zicong was in the basement, but later it clearly didn’t match. In the end, he figured it out by combining what he saw on the monitors with the spacing between the other two rooms. It was really difficult to judge, and only a genius like Su Xuan could have deduced it from surveillance!

The place where Wang Zicong was being locked up actually had to be accessed through Baotou’s room. There was a bookcase in Baotou’s room, which had to be a secret door. But to an ordinary person, they’d never think it was a secret door, because it looked just like a solid wall; using it as a hidden passage was pretty damn subtle!

"As expected of a master!"

Su Xuan said, then closed his laptop and put it away. Holding his stomach, he walked out looking weak. He knew that if he didn’t go back out soon, it would start to raise suspicion—this place was full of experts!

When Su Xuan dragged himself weakly back to the solo table, he asked curiously,

"So, Bank. How much have you won?"

Su Xuan said softly.

"Cough, cough... bro actually lost a few tens of thousands!"

"It’s fine, we’ll win it back in a sec. For now, just bank that."

Su Xuan held his stomach with one hand and sat down.

"Bro, you feeling any better?"

He looked at Su Xuan and asked worriedly.

"I’m fine. Come on, my target’s about to be achieved!"

Su Xuan said excitedly!

Boss Flower was fired up inside as a new round had already begun. He looked at Su Xuan and said, "Mr. Su, this time you go first!"

Su Xuan clutched his belly, looking very uncomfortable, then pulled out his phone and sent a WeChat message.

"Baby, I’m at work now, don’t worry about me!"

After saying that, Su Xuan put his phone on the table and then said,

"Just came back from the toilet, I’ll start small—one hundred thousand!"

As he spoke, Su Xuan tossed out one hundred thousand!

Sure enough, Boss Flower felt a thrill—finally, the fish had bitten. He followed with another one hundred thousand.

"Deal!"

Su Xuan used one hundred thousand to play against him, and the result was that Su Xuan lost. But what the others didn’t know at this moment was that a voice was sounding in Su Xuan’s ear!

"Move your phone a little to the left! I’ve just entered the free competition in Venice. Once you’re done over there, remember to come; I want you to see me compete!"

In the Venice club, inside a private room during halftime, Xinyue Hu stared confidently at the big screen showing Boss Flower.

That’s right—Su Xuan had just deliberately put his phone on the table; in reality he was already on a video call with Xinyue Hu. Without using Primordial Qi, Su Xuan naturally couldn’t outplay them; this wasn’t his specialty at all!

The whole reason Su Xuan went to the bathroom just now was to use the time difference. He had already discussed it with Xinyue Hu beforehand: there would be a one-hour break at halftime, and if they wanted to hook the big fish, they had to rely on Xinyue Hu! At this point it actually wasn’t Su Xuan playing against Boss Flower anymore—it was Xinyue Hu playing him!

After Su Xuan played two small hands and both got eaten, he pretended to lose his temper.

"Son of a bitch, I don’t buy this! Eight hundred thousand!"

Su Xuan directly switched into a kind of doubling strategy, and that instantly made Boss Flower ecstatic. He thought, this kid has finally taken the bait. He was very confident—in this kind of doubling mode, two hundred million could be fully recovered in just a few hands.

"I’ll match your eight hundred thousand!"

"I’ll open!"

Su Xuan wasn’t going to get into a drawn-out fight; he’d been running a pattern on them the whole time. He knew Xinyue Hu was a master at reading patterns; as long as she watched a few more times, she could fully grasp their cheating skill!

After losing five hands in a row, Su Xuan had already won back ten million. At this point he acted like he was really pissed, looking a bit flustered and desperate.

"That’s about enough. His cheating skill is actually simple—he’s doing something with his hands when he deals; he knows what cards you have. The shuffle itself follows a pattern. When he shuffles next time, find a way to pull one card out or add one in. Then the result will be that his hand will end up smaller than yours!"

Xinyue Hu said softly!

"That magical?"

Su Xuan was also shocked—this cheating skill was a bit too high-end. What the hell kind of principle was that!

"Heh, a true Qian master might not even consciously know he’s cheating, because it’s all about an extremely strong sense of feel—using the fingers to guide the cards. Only real top-tier masters can pull that off!"

After Xinyue Hu finished, Su Xuan was debating whether he should steal a card or sneak in a card. It was anything but simple, because a lot of eyes and cameras were on them. If he wanted to add a card in, that really made him hesitate; honestly, neither option was easy, since too many people were watching.

Su Xuan thought it over and felt both methods were a bit difficult!

"Running into trouble, huh? Well, yeah, this is a bit tricky. Your hand movements could easily get caught. I’ll teach you another trick: the principle is that he’s relying on feel—he only knows your hand is smaller than his, but he doesn’t know your exact cards."
