Prison Doctor turned over the cards in his hand.

On the card, a spade is located in the center of the card.

Other than that, there are no numbers or letters representing points.

Prison Doctor looked at the cards with no points in his hand and said blankly, "What does this card mean?"

Gambler took the card from Prison Doctor's hand and looked at the spade in the center of the card.

His eyes narrowed slightly, and the expression on his face was very serious.

After a long time, he took a deep breath, and then explained in a heavy tone, "Spade represents disaster, disease, death and other ominous events."

"You drew the spade, which means someone might die between the two of us."

Prison Doctor didn't believe it, so he drew another card from the top of the stack of playing cards in Gambler's hand.

The card is still spades.

Seeing this, Gambler's eyes became more solemn.

Prison Doctor said with some embarrassment, "Didn't you just say that spades represent disaster or disease?"

"Why do you have to say death?"

Gambler shook his head and said, "If you draw the first card, I'm not completely sure of the result."

"But you still drew spades on the second card."

"Then I am almost certain that death is the result predicted by this spade."

Prison Doctor still doesn't believe in evil.

He took all the cards in Gambler's hand and then separated them into fan shapes.

The next second, his eyes became dull.

I saw that in that deck of playing cards, there were no other suits except spades.

After coming back to his senses, Prison Doctor's tone became strange. "Mr. Huanshen, are you sure there is nothing wrong with your deck of playing cards?"

"I suspect you bought a fake."

"Or are you using the power of illusion on me again?"

Gambler looked over and took a deep breath when he saw the all-colored spades.

At this moment, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

He knew very well that this deck of playing cards was no ordinary playing cards.

This is a divination card.

In addition to the meaning of spades he just explained.

Hearts represent good luck and happiness.

Plum blossoms represent wisdom and knowledge.

Squares represent wealth and success.

What Gambler didn't say is that this deck of cards actually has some points.

There are fifty-four in total, including the big and small kings.

The interpretation is based on the number of points and the suit.

Because under certain circumstances, spades can also mean that everything goes well.

However, there are no letters or patterns related to points on the cards.

At this moment, in Gambler's sight, the spade pattern on the card was moving strangely.

Eventually, the spades pattern twisted into a single word: die

Gambler rubbed his eyes.

He had already realized the seriousness of the matter.

Because just now, he lied to Prison Doctor and said that he could do divination.

As long as Prison Doctor believes it, then he will really know how to divination.

In other words, the divination results that appear now are valid.

For a moment, Gambler felt in a dilemma.

After much hesitation, Gambler took back the divination playing cards from Prison Doctor's hand.

After closing the cards, he took out an Ace of Hearts from somewhere.

Then he mixed the Ace of Hearts into the pile of cards full of spades.

After doing all this, he started shuffling the cards crazily.

Prison Doctor Although he didn't understand the meaning of what he did, he still didn't bother the other party.

Gambler It took a full minute to shuffle the cards.

After shuffling the cards, he took a deep breath, and then pulled out a card from the middle of the deck without hesitation.

Turn the cards over.

The Ace of Hearts on the card looks very dazzling.

Gambler didn't even look at the remaining cards, so he threw them directly into the aqueduct on the side.

The cards gradually disappeared into the darkness along the direction of the water flow.

He brought the Ace of Hearts to his mouth, and then kissed the card.

"Lucky!"

Hearing Gambler's words, Prison Doctor wondered, "Mr. Huan Shen, what does this Ace of Hearts represent?"

Gambler did not explain the meaning of this card in detail, but just smiled and said, "It represents good luck!"

Prison Doctor nodded and said, "Then do we still want to continue searching?"

Gambler said without hesitation, "The results of the divination tell me that good things will happen if I continue."

Hearing this, Prison Doctor was silent for a few seconds and then said, "But wasn't the initial divination result very bad?"

Gambler waved his hand, and the smile on his face became more obvious, "We should not believe the bad results."

"Everything is ideal!"

After listening to Gambler's explanation, Prison Doctor was a little speechless.

After Gambler finished what he said just now, he took the lead and walked towards the darkness in the distance.

Prison Doctor hesitated for a second, then followed with a kerosene lamp in hand.

For Prison Doctor, finding and solving the source of disease transmission can also be regarded as a means of treating the disease.

And it is also an extremely effective method.

His duty as a doctor drove him into darkness.

Even if there is a possibility of being swallowed by darkness.

At this moment, Prison Doctor remembered the time when he was still a human being.

He wore a canvas shirt soaked in wax and an air filter Beak Mask.

There is only one stick in his hand.

The wooden stick is used to lift the patients' clothes and sheets and instruct them how to save themselves.

At that time, he was not as skilled as he is now.

Some are just passionate and responsible.

At that time, he was like this, walking in the dark ward with a kerosene lamp.

He still remembered the long Beak, which was filled with too much cotton, making it difficult for him to breathe and the feeling of lack of oxygen in his brain.

I also remember the fear and helplessness caused by being swallowed by the darkness in the darkness after the kerosene lamp went out.

He even remembered the helplessness and despair deep in his heart when one of his companions fell down in front of him.

He remembered that Evil God asked such a question before imposing Curse on him.

"Have you ever regretted it?"

At that time, he replied without hesitation, "I don't regret it!"

"Jie Jie Jie!" When he thought of this, he suddenly laughed out loud.

The sound was harsh and unpleasant, like the scream of a Crow with its throat pinched.

Gambler, who was walking in front, turned around suddenly and asked in a puzzled tone, "I heard your laughter, you seem very happy?"

Prison Doctor Beak opened and closed, and made a sharp voice. "I thought of some interesting things."

"I just don't know if I should share it with you."

Gambler stopped and said in a teasing tone, "I am quite curious."

"Now you have successfully aroused my curiosity."

"I would feel bad if my curiosity could not be satisfied."

Prison Doctor once again let out a strange laugh and said, "Jie Jie Jie! Mr. Huan Shen, do you know the history of the European Middle Ages?"

Hearing this, Gambler frowned:

"Sorry, I never went to school!"
