1671. Breakthrough
"Hey, buddy." James-Bond patted Mas-Weiken's face, waking him up from his sleep.
"Ah... you! You..." Mas-Wiccan suddenly woke up. After seeing the person clearly, he begged again, "Please let me go... I just want to make a little money... I have said everything I should say... I don't know anything else!"
"Haha, small money?" James-Bond mocked, "You can make at least enough money to buy a high-end frigate by changing hands. If this is considered small money, then how can we who are salaried survive?"
"Sir... Sir... I am willing to give you all the money! Not a cent! I just beg you to let me go..." Tuo Mas was still begging for mercy.
"Did you know? Dawn Star System is very busy now, and this utility room is stacked with repair equipment for holographic game consoles. But according to my observation, the people who work here are busy working all day long, and most of their rest time is mixed with wine. After getting drunk, they rest, and then the next day they open their eyes and are busy working again. They There is no time for too much entertainment, and no one will smash the game console. So, this is basically a tool created by Kuat Drive Yards to promote its employee benefits," James-Bond said with a smile.
Mas-Wiccan nodded blankly.
"Look... Kuat Drive Yards will definitely promote it. We even prepared game consoles for employees! But in reality? The work pressure is very high and the work is intensive and overtime all day long. Who has the energy to play games?" James-Bond continued, "So, I just need to leave you here. The only result for you is to slowly starve to death. I believe this feeling is not very pleasant to me... because you may be tortured by hunger for at least a week. Don't worry, I will at least give you water."
Trust began to shake his head violently again, "No... I will tell you whatever you want! I will take you out right now, please let me go!"
James-Bond took out a tube of nutritional supplement from his pocket, shook it, and said, "This is the flavor of Pinto Fruit. In fact, I have tasted a lot of flavors, and I still think the taste of Pinto Fruit is the most comfortable. It is slightly sweet in the mouth, but after swallowing, it has a refreshing sour taste, and then aftertaste in the throat, there is another sweetness..."
Tuo Mas swallowed hard, he hadn't eaten for most of the day.
James-Bond immediately put away the nutritional supplements, "Look, it's only been less than a day. There are still nine days before you will actually starve to death..."
Tuo Mas struggled violently, "Please give me something to eat. I will tell you whatever you want! Whatever you want!"
James-Bond's face suddenly turned cold, "Tell me the coordinates of this galaxy!"
Mas-Wiccan was stunned for a moment, then said with a sad face, "I don't know..."
James-Bond stood up and said, "Then I'll come back at this time tomorrow. Maybe after a day, your memory will be clearer."
He walked out as he spoke without any hesitation at all.
"Wait a minute! Wait a minute! I know where the coordinates are!" asked Mas to shout quickly.
James-Bond turned around and said coldly, "You only have 5 seconds, otherwise, see you tomorrow."
"Navigator Bourne! He knows the coordinates! And I know how to get him to tell you!" asked Mas.
"Then tell me." James-Bond came to Mas and squatted down in front of him.
"Bourne! This guy is a navigator! He is responsible for the navigation of one of the transportation lines! And he likes gambling! Very much!" asked Mas.
"So he owes you money?"
"No... I owe him more than 8,000 credit points..."
James-Bond looked cold and stood up to leave again.
"Wait a minute! Bourne is a hot-tempered person. If you can make him lose to the top, he will dare to put anything on the gambling table! And I owe him money. If you go to him directly and say that you want to help me pay back the money, he will definitely not refuse you!" asked Mas quickly.
James-Bond A satisfied smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then he dropped a bottle of water, "Drink, this is your food for today. If you want to solve the problem, you can also solve it in the bottle."
"No... I want to eat! I want nutritional supplements!" Boss Mas was left alone, and he was almost crying now.
"Of course, you have to wait until I come into contact with this Bourne before you are eligible to eat." James-Bond smiled coldly and walked out directly.
"It looks like I won again." James-Bond put down the cards in his hand with a smile, "Exactly 23 o'clock! Haha! Take it all!!"
"Asshole!!" A middle-aged man with curly hair who looked a little fatter smashed the machine in his hand on the table in great annoyance. But he still reluctantly grabbed a handful of money and threw it into a triangular jar in the center of the table.
James-Bond After the other three people at the table had thrown money in, he leaned over and took the jar, poured all the money in front of him, and looked proud while counting.
They were playing a card game called Sabacc (Sabacc), which is similar to a complicated blackjack. The ultimate goal of the game is to bring the number of points in your hand as close as possible to 23. Both positive and negative numbers are acceptable. Whoever is closest will win. This is considered a small game.
Then the loser of each round will throw money into the 'Sabacc jar' in the middle of the table.
When someone completes a special combination, or directly reaches 23 points, this person eats all the money in the Sabacc jar, and then this is the end of the overall situation (the rules are complicated anyway, so I won't go into details).
In the original plot, Han-Solo won Millennium Falcon from Lando Calrissian through this card.
James-Bond counted and found that he had won more than 40,000 credit points today, which can be regarded as a huge sum of money.
It is now the third day that he has contacted Bourne. I trust Mas-Wiccan did not lie. He really approached Bourne on the pretext of paying back the money. And luckily, Bourne happened to be on the card table at that time. So James-Bond naturally made a few bets with him.
For top agents like James-Bond, their mastery of micro-expressions and even psychology, as well as their calculation of card situations, make them the top poker players. It is easy to defeat these skilled workers.
To put it bluntly, these people are all people who have been busy during the day, come over to drink some wine at night, gamble a few times, go home and sleep, and there will be nothing like gambling. James-Bond will naturally be unfavorable.
So in the next two days, James-Bond went out to check out the situation during the day, and came over to gamble with Bourne at night. He let Bourne win first and then lose. In the end, he took it all and almost emptied his entire pocket.
"Okay, okay, I have more than ten machines to be inspected tomorrow. Let's go home and sleep." James-Bond waved his hand and walked outside.
"One more game!!" Bourne roared loudly from behind.
"No, I'm too tired. Go home." James-Bond shook his head and continued walking out.
"I bet on my spaceship!!" Bourne said loudly, "One round will determine the outcome! I won't waste too much time!"
James-Bond finally stopped and turned around and asked, "What kind of spaceship is yours?"
"A DC-9 cargo ship! It's not a good cargo, but it's enough to win back all the money you have!" Bourne said loudly.
"Oh? It seems like you're sure you've won?" James-Bond smiled coldly, walked back, pulled out the stool and sat down at the card table again.
No one could see that the moment he opened the stool, he changed a card without leaving a trace.
"Then, just the two of us." James-Bond said. He took out the money he just won from his arms, shook it, looked at Bourne's red eyes, and threw all the money into the Sabacc jar in the middle of the table.
Bourne also took out a spacecraft starter, hesitated, and threw it into the jar.
