Super Detective in the Fictional World

security detail, didn’t move.
It was another bodyguard who dealt the cards.

Tony Stark, on the other hand, idly enjoyed his drink and gambled against the other people, including Luke, without moving his fingers.

A moment later, Tony suddenly gave Luke a strange look.
“You’re quite good, aren’t you?”

When Tony Stark became the banker, most tourists started to lose, while Luke was the only one who won as many times as he lost.
In the last round, however, he won five thousand dollars.

It was highly unnatural.

Luke knew the reason.

Blackjack was one of the few games where mathematics really mattered.
In the movie, 21, some geniuses from MIT won a fortune in Las Vegas with their math models.

Tony Stark had probably invented the prototype for Jarvis by now, and he was winning money from the tourists instead of the hotel.
So, the hotel wouldn’t step in even if he played any tricks.

Luke knew that Tony Stark was wearing a micro-earpiece; it was possible that the Jarvis prototype was counting the cards for him.

Cheating?

It definitely wasn’t cheating.

How could it be cheating, when the man was using his abilities to win money?

Luke, for one, had also been changing the cards in the card box remotely with his personal space, which was his own ability.

He had figured out more functions of the personal space, including the ability to store or release items remotely, but that was limited to a range of five meters.

Also, remote storage and release demanded more of Mental Strength.

To put it simply, it was easier for him to move smaller, inert and uncovered objects.

A card couldn’t be more than five grams in weight, and Luke could store and release them hundreds of times a night.

Luke simply smiled at Tony Stark’s compliment.
“It’s just luck.”

Tony snorted.
“Really? You’re very lucky, so why are your stakes so low?”

Luke chuckled.
“I’m only playing for fun.
I don’t like big bets.”

Tony said, “You think the chips on this table are big?”

Everybody was lost for words.
Do you think everyone is as rich as you?

Tony frowned at Luke, who smiled but didn’t say anything.
He suddenly thought that the young man seemed familiar.

He whispered something, and Jarvis did a check of Luke’s identity.

A moment later, Tony was dazed.
“You’re that young police officer from Houston?”

Luke smiled but didn’t say anything.

Tony had a strange expression on his face.

He had paid a small price previously to get the young officer and his beautiful partner transferred to Los Angeles.

But he had been so busy attending end-of-year pageants that he forgot about them.

Luke had been sitting in front of him for quite a while now, but Tony hadn’t recognized him at all.

“Interesting.
You have enough money for this place? Aren’t you a police officer now?” asked Tony.

Luke said, “I’m on vacation and I’m playing with a few thousand dollars.
I don’t think I’m the only person in this country who can afford that, right?”

Tony couldn’t argue with him.

“Alright, let’s play,” said Tony.

Luke found that odd.
“Aren’t we playing already?”

Tony said, “I’m talking about a game between us.”

Luke said, “Whatever.”
