A lucky cat fell from the sky.

Chapter 93 Stealing Eggs

Although this was a gambling den, people were generally willing to let things go, but they didn't know who was standing behind Wu Cheng.

Guo Sidi is a master-level figure; how could he allow a small gambling and medicine company to bully him like this?

Guo Sidi clenched his fists so tightly they cracked, he was about to make a move. Wu Cheng was also furious, but he quickly changed his mind. If he were to ask the gambling drug company to pay up now, they would probably only lose a few thousand small gold bars, which wouldn't be enough to cripple the entire gambling drug company.

Since the gambling den wants to gamble, let's gamble big with them.

Thinking of this, Wu Cheng calmed down and carefully observed He Baoxiong.

After observing him repeatedly, he realized that He Baoxiong was no ordinary man. Despite his burly appearance and the kitchen knife he was carrying, he was actually as cunning as a fox. He was setting the pace and preparing for a big fight.

He Baoxiong was initially hesitant, fearing that if Wu Cheng really made a scene, the reputation of the gambling drug company would suffer. However, Wu Cheng remained quite quiet, as if he had immediately backed down.

Soft-legged shrimp.

He Baoxiong thought disdainfully.

He focused on the start of the game, and more and more people began to join the Kuaishou game. In this round, everyone bet a lot of small yellow fish chips. If you calculate it, the total number of small yellow fish chips is 20,000. Moreover, the odds for this round are quite good, reaching a 1 to 2 ratio.

He Baoxiong laughed inwardly, thinking, "These fools, just you wait and see, I'll harvest you until there's nothing left."

He picked out another medicine egg, absolutely certain that it was empty.

After showing the medicine egg to everyone, He Baoxiong was about to open it. Just as he picked up his knife, Wu Cheng activated time stop. He took Jerry to pick one that clearly contained a precious medicine, but the medicine itself wasn't very valuable.

As for how to distinguish them, it all depends on Jerry's reaction. If Jerry only makes one squeak, the medicine is very bad; if he makes two squeaks, it's average; if he makes three squeaks, it's good; and if he keeps making squeaks, it's super good.

Wu Cheng originally planned to return, but then he thought that since there were so many precious medicine eggs, it would be better to put them all into the cat house.

He first took the largest medicine egg from the gambling den's platform into his cat house, and then took in many other ones. Anyway, no one would know if he took them, so why not take them?

He practically emptied the entire gambling den before finally placing the medicine egg in He Baoxiong's hand.

At that moment, He Baoxiong brought down his knife, and with a crack, the medicine egg shattered.

A piece of plant root was exposed inside, but it was already a bit rotten. Although it had the scent of a precious medicine, it was probably only worth a few hundred small yellow croakers.

"There's a precious medicine!" someone shouted.

Everyone invested money this time, and the odds were high. As soon as they saw the precious medicine, everyone cheered.

He Baoxiong looked at the medicine egg in his hand with disbelief, and quickly realized something was wrong: "This is not... not the one I picked."

But no matter how he explained, people wouldn't believe him.

He couldn't very well say that he had actually prepared that empty pill long ago, just to make a big move.

As a result, this game went awry, and they ended up having to pay out 20,000 small yellow croakers.

Twenty thousand small yellow croakers! Even if you sold He Baoxiong, you wouldn't be worth that much money.

What shocked Ho Po-hung even more was that the large platform of the gambling drug den was completely empty.

How is this going?

Who on earth dared to steal the gambling drug store's stuff?

Wait a minute, there must be at least several hundred poison eggs on this platform, and they're all huge. The biggest one is just for show, and the cost of opening it alone is tens of thousands of small yellow croakers.

How could something so huge disappear in the blink of an eye?

He shook his head to make sure he wasn't dreaming.

Meanwhile, demands for compensation rose and fell, and He Baoxiong was sweating profusely. He vaguely felt that he had caused all of this trouble because he hadn't paid that kid earlier, which had now led to this chaos.

It's impossible to get away unscathed now, so we have to find a scapegoat.

That way, I might be able to save my life.

His eyes darted around, he wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and fixed his gaze on Wu Cheng.

At this moment, several martial artists and a martial arts master who were maintaining order at the gambling den came out. The martial arts master raised his voice and shouted for silence.

The entire room fell silent.

The martial arts master jumped onto the platform and said, "This time, our gambling drug store has run into trouble. It has been robbed. Please allow us to resolve the theft issue first, and then we will discuss compensation with you."

"Are you trying to renege on your debt?" someone shouted, mustering their courage.

The martial arts master's gaze swept over that person, who trembled and dared not speak again.

"Our gambling drug den has never had a record of defaulting on payments. It never has, it never has, and it never will."

The martial arts master had just gotten to this point.

Wu Cheng spoke up, saying, "I don't think so. You just cheated me out of 12,000 small yellow croakers. Everyone here can testify to that."

Wu Cheng didn't say it before because he was the only one who placed a bet in that round.

Therefore, even if he speaks, others may not necessarily support him.

But things are different now. He is just like everyone else, a creditor of the gambling drug den, so when he speaks out, people immediately respond.

The martial arts master's face was quite ugly. He glared at Wu Cheng and said, "Who sent you? How dare you cause trouble at our gambling and medicine shop?"

With Guo Sidi by his side, Wu Cheng wasn't afraid of a martial arts master at all: "Is this your way of reneges on your debts? I'm a gambler here, and I've placed real bets. What, you're allowed to rip us off, but we're not allowed to win a few times?"

"If you think I'm talking nonsense, you might as well ask He Baoxiong, who's right next to you, whether he's renege on his debt or not."

The martial arts instructor's gaze fell on He Baoxiong.

He Baoxiong also shuddered: "It was...it was him who tampered with the car. He cheated so that I made the wrong turn."

"Wrongly opened?" Wu Cheng seized on He Baoxiong's loophole. "So you guys weren't gambling when you opened the drug shop, but rather you were setting a trap to cheat us out of our money. Otherwise, why would there be a distinction between right and wrong?"

The other gamblers weren't fools either; Wu Cheng's words woke them up, and they all echoed his sentiments.

Since Wu Cheng has already become the first to stick his neck out, even if the gambling drug bureau wants to deal with him, the first person they will target is Wu Cheng.

The martial arts master wanted nothing more than to kill He Baoxiong. After kicking him to the ground, he looked at Wu Cheng and said, "You've got guts. I now suspect that you're involved in the theft at our gambling drug store. Please cooperate with our investigation."

Wu Cheng chuckled: "You think it was stolen just like that? Everyone's standing here in the audience, no one has the ability to steal so much stuff from you, so I think there's only one possibility, which is that you yourselves stole it. Don't you all agree?"
