Chapter 30

The nightclub has a total of eight floors, and this elevator can only go directly from the basement to the eighth floor, but there are no restrictions when going out. Zhang Yang couldn't help but secretly admire Duan Fei and his team's skills. Unless there was an informant inside, it would be very difficult for outsiders to discover this casino. With Xiao Fei and Wang Yunlai backing them, how could the police ever come to investigate? No wonder this casino could operate so brazenly in the city center, and no wonder there were so many gamblers.

When they reached the top floor, Zhang Yang found that the atmosphere here was completely different from the basement; it was quiet and peaceful, with no signs of a casino.

At this moment, Duan Fei said, "Brother Wang, this floor only has poker games, including Pai Gow and Texas Hold'em. Which one do you prefer?"

Zhang Yang had learned both from Wang Yue, but he had the best grasp of Texas Hold'em. After all, he could see everyone's hole cards, which made it easier for him to place bets. Moreover, Texas Hold'em was popular, and the stakes were high. Since he was here to cause trouble, the bigger the game, the better.

"Texas Hold'em, then!" Zhang Yang said.

Duan Fei smiled and said, "Alright, please follow me this way."

Zhang Yang followed Duan Fei into a room. After entering, Duan Fei greeted the gamblers who were already playing and introduced them, "Gentlemen, do you mind if we have one more friend join us?"

A fat gambler took a puff of his cigar and said, "Little Duan, don't introduce just anyone to us. The minimum bet is ten thousand, not everyone can afford it."

Duan Fei glanced back at Zhang Yang and said, "My friend is a skilled player. He just won over ten million from me downstairs. I believe he has no problem with the stakes."

The people at the table all looked at Zhang Yang in surprise.

Winning over ten million in a casino wasn't a small amount. They all knew how the casino worked; the gambling tools were designed to ensure the house always won. Playing cards here was just using the venue; the wins and losses had nothing to do with the casino. Of course, sometimes the casino would send someone to play, but that was rare. For Zhang Yang to win ten million in the casino, he was truly a skilled player.

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Money is no problem. If ten million isn't enough, I have more."

The fat gambler said, "If that's the case, let's play together."

After Zhang Yang sat down, he unexpectedly said, "Boss Duan, aren't you going to join us? I hear you're a skilled player!"

Duan Fei's hand tightened, and he gave Zhang Yang a fierce look before laughing and saying, "If no one minds, I'll join you!"

At this point, if Duan Fei still couldn't see that Zhang Yang was targeting him, he wouldn't be Duan Fei. He was considering who this so-called Wang Jun really was. Was he an enemy of his, or an enemy of the casino? Was he targeting him, or his boss behind the scenes?

Seeing Duan Fei sit down, Zhang Yang smiled triumphantly.

By the third hand, everyone noticed something strange.

This new young man was clearly targeting Duan Fei. If Duan Fei followed, he followed; if Duan Fei folded, he folded no matter how good his hand was.

Duan Fei's face turned green with anger. If he had known this guy was targeting him, he would never have brought "Wang Jun" here. Even if it meant angering everyone, he would have dealt with this guy in the basement. Now it was too late.

This guy was clearly here to humiliate him.

"Brother Wang, you're here for me, Duan Fei," Duan Fei said after looking at his hand.

Zhang Yang laughed and said, "Boss Duan, you're joking. I'm here to win money. How can you say I'm here for you?"

Since he had come in disguise, Zhang Yang had decided not to reveal his identity. Today was just the beginning of his revenge. He wanted these enemies to live in fear, and this would also prevent them from retaliating against him.

Duan Fei, of course, didn't believe Zhang Yang. He sneered and said, "I know all the brothers in the Tianjin underworld. I don't know where you're from, Brother Wang. If there's a misunderstanding, we can talk it out. But if you're here to cause trouble, you've picked the wrong place."

Zhang Yang lit a cigarette, took a deep puff, and leaned back in his chair. "What's wrong with coming to the casino to win money? I don't want to win from anyone else today; I just want to win from you, Duan Fei. Is that not allowed?"

Duan Fei laughed in anger. "Sure, of course it's allowed. But let's see if you have the skills."

He looked at the three community cards: hearts A, Q, and 6. He then looked at his own hand: hearts K and 10. From the cards on the table, he already had a flush, and there was a chance for a straight flush.

Zhang Yang didn't look at his cards and continued to make blind bets.

But in reality, Zhang Yang not only knew his own hole cards but also the remaining two community cards.

Zhang Yang held the 3 of diamonds and the 6 of spades, which seemed to have no chance of winning. However, when combined with the remaining two community cards, which were the 3 of spades and the 6 of clubs, he had a straight.

A flush against a full house, this was a classic showdown.

The other players at the table revealed their cards and waited to see the outcome of the two men's confrontation.

Zhang Yang unbuttoned all the buttons on his shirt and smiled. "Boss Duan, let's play a big hand. I'll show you my cards, and this hand will be a blind bet. If I lose, I'll leave right away. If I win, I don't have any other demands. I just want you, Boss Duan, to let me leave. To be honest, I'm really scared. I've won so much money, and I'm worried I won't be able to leave the casino alive."

Duan Fei's eyes were almost on fire. Zhang Yang was humiliating him right in front of everyone!

These weren't the small-time gamblers downstairs; they were high rollers. If these people saw him using tricks, the casino would be finished. These people were not only rich but also influential. If their safety couldn't be guaranteed, who would dare to come here to play?

Sure enough, when Zhang Yang said this, several people's faces changed.

Duan Fei, trembling with anger, said, "Boss Wang, you're joking. Our casino would never do such a thing!"

"Is that so? But I heard that some people who won money here were robbed before they could leave," Zhang Yang said, making it up as he went along.

Duan Fei shuddered, not wanting this young man to spread more rumors. The reputation of the casino would be ruined.

"Wang, stop talking nonsense. If you want to gamble, I'll gamble with you," Duan Fei said.

Seeing the suspicious expressions of the other gamblers, Zhang Yang knew he had successfully planted a seed of doubt. Perhaps it wouldn't be long before this seed bore unexpected fruit.

At this moment, Nie Xinyi, standing in the surveillance room, smiled triumphantly. "So, Duan Fei, you do such things. I see, Zhang Yang is here for revenge. He must have a friend or family member who was wronged here. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so relentless. If it were just about money, the amount he has won is already enough. But he's willing to go all in, probably just to say these words."

"Xiao Fei, Xiao Fei, they say you're smart, but I didn't expect you to use such a person."

Nie Xinyi bit her lip, walked out of the room, and took out her phone to make a call. "Uncle Liu, something interesting is happening at the casino."

After a moment, Nie Xinyi said happily, "I understand. Uncle Liu, rest assured, this time we will definitely catch Duan Fei."

She hung up and made another call. "Xiao Hei, have you seen Zhao Xing and his group?"

"They just went out with some tools, as if they were going to do something," Xiao Hei said.

"Follow them!" Nie Xinyi said.

Xiao Hei said, "Is it useful? Last time, when I followed them, they ended up in a hot pot restaurant and had a strange fight. I almost got caught."

"Go, today there will definitely be a breakthrough," Nie Xinyi said.

She hung up and returned to the surveillance room, where she found everyone staring in shock. She followed their gaze to the monitor and couldn't help but cover her mouth in disbelief.
