After eating and drinking his fill, Tracy also finished her shower and came out.
She had already heard Daly arrive while she was in the shower, so the girl was wrapped in a bathrobe.
Daly didn't react much to this, but Chris's expression was strange.
Because he had watched the girl go in for a shower naked, and although Tracy was now wrapped in a bathrobe, in Chris's mischievous mind, it was no different from being naked.
Coupled with Daly's presence, Chris immediately felt his blood rush again.
He quickly stopped Tracy from reaching for pizza, handed her clothes, and said, "Don't rush to eat, put your clothes on first."
Although Tracy didn't understand, she still followed Chris's suggestion, picked up her clothes, and went to the restroom to change.
Only when she came out again did Chris feel much better.
His mischievous mind, after all, was not a truly mischievous mind; it was far from as powerful as a Vanma alien's, and he couldn't imagine the body beneath various and diverse clothes.
Therefore, when Tracy put on her clothes, Chris's imagination was greatly suppressed, which allowed his blood to return to normal.
After his brain returned to calm, Chris finally brought up serious matters.
When he had previously talked to the Taggart father and son about the Ogre witchcraft vehicle and even proactively suggested they exhibit it to make money, it wasn't just because they had helped him.
It was also because Chris completely looked down on that thing; it wasn't worth Cuixi and her younger brother risking their lives to deal with that witchcraft vehicle.
Chris still remembered that in the plot of 'Ogre 3', when the police went to impound the vehicle, several people were lost because they didn't understand the strangeness of the thing.
If Cuixi and her younger brother, two novices with no social experience, were to impound it, how would that be any different from pushing them into a fire pit?
So, it was better to do them a favor and let the experienced Taggart father and son handle it.
After all, in the original work, these two had even modified Ogre witchcraft weapons.
Thus, with his guidance, impounding an ownerless witchcraft vehicle would be a simple matter.
And since he was so generous to two outsiders who had helped him slightly, Chris had to make even better arrangements for his first woman before he left.
The most crucial thing was to get Tracy enough money to last her a lifetime, so Chris could leave with peace of mind.
As for how this money would come about, for Chris, a Transmigrator, it was the simplest thing imaginable.
Especially in this past year of 2001.
However, because Chris could only stay for a few days at most, he directly excluded slow money-making methods and focused on the fastest and simplest ones.
There were only a handful of such money-making methods, and the most suitable for Chris were gambling and the stock market.
After briefly outlining a plan in his mind, Chris spoke, "Tracy, I'll be leaving in a few days, and it might be difficult for us to meet again then. So, before I leave, let me secure some benefits for you all with the secret information I know!"
Tracy, who was eating pizza, paused, then lowered her head and said, "Okay, as my brother said, you must have a big organization behind you, so even if you just reveal a little information, it'll be enough for ordinary people like us to live on for a lifetime!"
She didn't look up while speaking, but Chris still detected a hint of insincerity.
This could be seen from her emphasis on the word 'ordinary people'.
However, Chris had no intention of trying to persuade her; they had only gotten together out of lust, and while there might have been some feelings, it was mostly the help of physical hormones.
Therefore, Chris was mentally prepared for this separation.
As for Tracy, she might have been somewhat prepared, but women are ultimately more emotional; they were still intimate last night, and then suddenly, this afternoon, they were talking about parting.
It could be said that Tracy not making a scene was already quite unexpected for Chris, so even if Chris noticed Tracy's unusual emotions, he didn't point it out.
At such a time, it was better to talk about something practical to ensure her future livelihood.
"It's good that you understand!"
Chris calmly advised Tracy, then turned to look at Daly, who had an indifferent expression.
"How much money do you have left, and do you know where there's a casino nearby?"
As soon as Tracy had called him over, she had told him to bring some money, so Daly reached into his pocket and pulled out five hundred US dollars.
Chris looked at the scattered but neatly stacked banknotes and guessed whether this kid had brought out his entire secret stash.
Daly's words also confirmed Chris's guess, "This is all my assets; my happiness for the rest of my life depends on you!"
Originally, Daly thought that he was told to bring this money for his sister and Chris to go out and have fun, but now it seemed that Chris was going to lead him to get rich!
---
With Daly driving the three of them, they soon arrived in front of an arcade.
Chris looked at the arcade, which didn't have many people, and asked in surprise, "Is this it? Why aren't there many people?"
"I also heard from a friend; he said there's a place here to make quick money."
Seeing how unreliable Daly was, Chris could only pray that his friend hadn't lied to him, otherwise, the initial capital would be more troublesome.
Fortunately, Tracy recovered some of her spirit at this moment and pointed to the back door of the arcade, "Look there."
Following Tracy's direction, Chris saw an old black man reading a newspaper at the door, and he suddenly understood.
The three of them quickly approached, and the old man looked up and asked, "Do you have an introducer?"
Chris and Tracy looked at Daly, who paused for a moment and said, "Does Thomson count?"
This was the person who told Daly about this place; he heard that he had looked over the place here.
Hearing the name, the old man put away his newspaper, opened the door, and said, "Go in!"
Seeing the hidden world behind, Chris led the way in, and Tracy and Daly quickly followed.
"Now this is more like it! I thought the students in your town didn't like playing games!"
Upon stepping into the casino, Chris took a glance and found that there were at least two hundred people there, most of whom were young.
It seemed that the students here weren't not playing games, but rather playing something more exciting.
However, this had nothing to do with Chris; he wasn't the president, nor a congressman, and he didn't have time to bother with these things.
He took out the five hundred US dollars Daly gave him, plus the dozens US dollars left over from renting the house, totaling five hundred seventy-three dollars.
Holding this considerable sum of money, Chris casually picked a simple gambling table.
Whether before or after transmigration, this was Chris's first time gambling.
So, Chris didn't know much about the various gambling games in front of him.
Therefore, he just found a gambling table similar to 'bigger or smaller' and then directly went all-in on 'bigger'.
Seeing Chris go all-in right away, not only were Cuixi and her younger brother stunned, but even the people around them were dumbfounded, and someone immediately said, "Hey, buddy! Even if you have a lot of money, this isn't how you play; are you here to give money to the casino?"
Chris just smiled and ignored the surprised comments from the people around him.
Not knowing the outcome is called gambling; knowing the outcome is called investment.
Even before killing the Ogre, Chris's five senses had already reached the peak of human ability, and might even have surpassed human limits.
And after killing the Ogre, with the blessing of that warm current, Chris's five senses reached new heights.
With such powerful five senses, Chris could easily perform the operations that only master gamblers in gambling movies could do.
That is, distinguishing dice by sound, being able to tell the number of points on the dice just by listening to the sound.
With this ability, even if Chris didn't understand gambling at all, he could still dominate.
