Chen Lin looked surprised at the people emerging from the passage.
There was nothing remarkable about those following behind. They were all Casino staff, including Dice Elder.
The one leading them, however, was a child.
The child wore ragged clothes and patched trousers. He had an honest-looking face and was filthy all over, with traces of snot beneath his nose, as though he had just finished playing in the mud.
"Greetings, boss!"
All the staff bowed to the child.
"No need."
The child waved his hand, and countless Profound Mystery Fruits flew out of his sleeve, landing precisely in the hands of the various staff members. Everyone received a share.
"Thank you for your generosity, boss!"
Everyone thanked him excitedly.
Chen Lin finally understood why even staff members forced to work here, like Ziyan, treated the boss with such "respect." So this was why.
Unfortunately.
The rewards were only for the staff. Not a single bettor received anything.
The child said little else. After making a round of the hall, he headed toward another passage.
Just then.
A slightly childish voice suddenly sounded in Chen Lin's ears.
"Your frequent cheating in the Casino has already triggered the rules. You have one more chance at most. Any more than that, and the rules will strike you down. Even I won't be able to help you then."
"Also."
"When you see San Niu again, don't forget to tell her about this. I paid a heavy price to help you. My return to Paradise will be delayed for a long time."
"Besides, she has already repaid your kindness several times over. I hope you won't ask anything more of her..."
The voice grew fainter and fainter.
As the child boss entered the passage, it disappeared completely.
Chen Lin stood there in a daze
