Super Detective in the Fictional World

up.
“Alright, I’ve won.”

Saying that, he approached the manager and said, “Transfer the money I won to my card.
Also, issue me an income certificate, okay?”

The certificate was necessary since he had won quite a lot of money; without it, Internal Affairs Division would come knocking on his door.

“What?” The hotel manager was dumbfounded.

Tony Stark frowned.
“What are you doing?”

Smiling, Luke pointed at his card and said, “Your card isn’t a A, K, Q, J or a ten, so it’s impossible for you to even reach a draw.
You can take a look at my card for yourself, but of course, you can always refuse to pay.”

Tony was lost for words.
How much money do you think you have? You think I can’t pay?

He gestured at Happy, and the fat bodyguard turned over Luke’s hidden card.

It was an A!

Blackjack! Double odds!

The audience all exclaimed.
That was too freaky!

The poor lad got a blackjack in the first round against the magnate.
It was like a slap to Tony Stark’s face.

Tony’s expression couldn’t be any more unsightly.
He had the hotel manager check the balance on Luke’s bank card.

The hotel manager hurriedly had a security guard take out a POS machine, only to be dumbfounded himself.

Silently, he gave the POS machine to Happy.

Happy also secretly exclaimed at the figure, but he had no choice except to hand it over to Tony Stark.

Tony couldn’t help but curse.
“How the hell did he earn six hundred thousand dollars?”

The audience exclaimed in shock again.
Very soon, someone figured out how much Luke had just earned.

They couldn’t be any more jealous, because Luke had won at least 2.4 million dollars in the game!

Actually, Luke had slightly more than 675 thousand dollars in his account.
Plus the thirty thousand dollars on the table, Luke’s ante was around 1.4 million.

Since Luke had blackjack, Tony had to pay double.

That meant that Luke had won more than 2.8 million dollars in this round.

Sh*t! Tony cursed inwardly, and wasn’t in the mood to play anymore.
He got up to leave.

“Mr.
Stark, about the money…” the hotel manager reminded him.

Without even looking at him, Tony snapped his fingers at the bodyguard who had been dealing.
The bodyguard immediately said, “I’ll handle it.
Let’s make the transfer over there.”

Looking at Luke, who had disappeared among a bunch of slot machines, Tony felt quite bummed out.
How had that guy won against him twice in a row?

Luke smiled.

It was really fun swindling Tony Stark out of a fortune.

The money wasn’t very important to Luke, since he had confiscated half a million by destroying the gang nests near USC.

Though he couldn’t openly use that money, he could buy special materials and parts through underground channels, as long as he kept his identity hidden.

He was feeling great right now, not because he had won a lot of money, but because he had won it from Tony Stark.

Also, nobody would think that Tony Stark was trying to bribe him by playing this game with him.

Tony was too powerful to ask a minor detective like Luke for help.

If he truly had a favor to ask, he would talk to the leaders at the highest level in the police department.
