Being in Detective Conan, being officially part of the organization is just too awesome!

Cohen's playing style, in essence, is just about bullying some weaker opponents...

This type of play, which focuses on defense and counter-attacks, can help you win more than you lose, but it's also possible to wipe out all your previous losses in one go...

However, this playing style is indeed very similar to Cohen's personality........................

Cohen's personality was also well-known within the organization.

The whole autistic child...............................

His playing style at mahjong is actually closely related to his personality...

Or rather, up until now, the playing styles of these few people that Shirley heard Lin Jiayou mention are all closely related to their personalities...

Gin is the kind of guy who's all talk and no action; when he does something, he's determined to kill.

Although Lin Jiayou appears calm on the surface, Miss Shirley, who has the most contact with him, is aware of the restlessness within him...

There's no need to elaborate on tequila; since his debut, although Shiho Miyano has never seen what he looked like in his youth, she's heard countless times that he was a complete brute...

"And what about Kogoro Mouri?"

Sherry suddenly remembered that among the people Lin Jiayou mentioned he knew, there was also Kogoro Mouri, so she immediately asked him about it...

Actually, she was also quite curious about what kind of gambling style Xiaolan's father had...

"Kogoro Mouri............................"

Lin Jiayou's lips twitched involuntarily as he thought of that old man...

If he had to pick a match for someone he least wanted to compete against, it wouldn't be Gin, nor Tequila, but rather this guy...............................

"His card playing style is completely unreliable..."

Lin Jiayou first shook his head.

"However, this doesn't mean he's a bad card player, but rather..."

"It seems like he knows a little bit about everything..."

"As for the exact style, it's somewhat like..."

"Hmm....................."

"Intimidation tactics?"

"Intimidation?"

When Shirley heard Lin Jiayou utter that word, she was slightly taken aback....................

Miss Shirley could picture all the people mentioned earlier...

However, this intimidation flow............................

"Hmm, that's about it..."

After organizing his thoughts, Lin Jiayou began to describe it to Shirley.

"For example, I'm going to make a small seven pairs hand..."

"Little Seven, isn't there seven pairs?"

"If it were Kogoro Mouri, he would probably fight like this—"

"I'll start by placing six cards face down, to let you know, I have three pairs here......................"

"Then, in the next round, two more cards are dealt face down, and you're told there's another pair here....................."

"This cycle repeated itself, and while everyone else was still building their hands, he would hide six pairs, telling you that he was now ready to win with seven pairs..."

"But I won't stand upright; I want to see who will fire my cannon..."

"This...this is called intimidation tactics?"

Sherry was completely stunned...

No, it's so obvious, who would believe him?

Wait, something seems off...

"Do you think that these so-called threats are nothing, and that you can just not believe them and that's it...?"

Lin Jiayou smiled slightly and shook his head gently.

"If that's what you think, then you're underestimating Kogoro Mouri..."

"What they're playing is all about deception and manipulation, a mix of the real and the unreal..."

"Here's a very simple example. Let me just say something offhand and ask you to guess. Don't you think it must be fake?"

"Nobody gets whatever they want just like that..."

Sherry nodded repeatedly; that was exactly what he thought...

However, immediately after she nodded, Miss Shirley realized something was wrong.......................

just in case.............................

"What if he really is?"

Lin Jiayou chuckled softly.

"What if he really is waiting for you? He tells you he's ready to win, but he doesn't declare riichi (ready to declare a winning hand) and instead makes a 'false wait'? And then... "

"You still fell for it, you set him off with fire..."

"What do you think?"

"Uh, this..."

Sherry was stumped by Lin Jiayou's question........................

If it really is just such a coincidence, I'm afraid I'll be in trouble...

They must be furious...

They've already told you, but you're still not on guard and even think they're lying...

Well, all I can say is, you deserved to set off the firecrackers........................

If we lose this round, it's a complete waste of time...

"Are you feeling very uncomfortable?"

Lin Jiayou continued speaking,

"Don't you feel like you're really bad, like the guy on the other side told you everything, and you still messed up...?"

"That situation certainly can happen..."

"If you're lucky, it's not impossible to get a perfect score in one go..."

"And once you've been tricked like this, a seed of doubt will be planted in your mind whenever you play cards again..."

"Every time Kogoro Mouri says something like that, you start to wonder if he really meant it, or if he's just bluffing you..."

"If you hesitate, your judgment will be clouded..."

"indeed........................"

Upon hearing this, Sherry suddenly realized something...

She counted on her fingers, calculating for Lin Jiayou.

"In this situation, the people playing cards with Mr. Mori could only do one of four things—"

"The first scenario, you don't believe me, and Mr. Mori didn't ask us to listen, so everyone lived in peace..."

"The second scenario, you don't believe me, but he listens, and you let him score a few points in a round or two, or even give him a free shot, and you'll be furious........................."

"The third scenario is that you believed him, he didn't call 'read,' but you still started folding to defend, and you still lost..."

"The fourth scenario is that you believe him, and he indeed didn't have a winning hand. You guard against him relentlessly, and in the end, he barely manages a draw and loses..."

Of the four possibilities, only one is unfavorable to Mr. Mori, while two are favorable...

"Overall, he made a profit!"

After some thought, Sherry realized that the intimidation tactics she had previously dismissed actually...

There's definitely something to it!

"That's right,"

Lin Jiayou nodded.

"Your understanding is spot on..."

"This kind of playing style is really like a troublemaker; sometimes even if he doesn't win much money from you, you still feel really uncomfortable..."

"So how do you deal with this kind of play?"

Sherry looked at Lin Jiayou with great interest.

"You and Tequila often play cards with Kogoro Mouri, you should have some experience, right..................."

"By now, should we have a solution...?"

"No,"

Lin Jiayou shook his head repeatedly.

"This is a psychological tactic, and there's no good way to break it..."

"Our only course of action right now is to treat every word Kogoro Mouri says as utter nonsense..."

"Let him keep bluffing, we don't need to pay attention, just focus on his river card..."

His words may deceive, but the cards he plays never lie...

"Of course, it's precisely because of his disruptive, intimidating tactics that his playing style is constantly evolving..."

"One round is an attack, the next a defense, who knows.........................."

"I see..."

As Sherry listened, she nodded repeatedly...

The card-playing styles Lin Jiayou described to her finally satisfied her curiosity........................

So Miss Shirley stopped talking about that topic and started chatting about other things...
