Chapter 1746
With that, the duo then began shaking their dice around for a few seconds...
Once both of them stopped, Xanry immediately smiled as he said, "After you, Mr. Crawford! Make your guess!"
Hearing that, Gerald then declared, "Three sixes!"
"I see! Four sixes then!" shouted Xanry in response.
From what Gerald had been able to hear, he knew that Xanry definitely had two sixes. Gerald had two sixes himself, which was why he definitely couldn't open it.
Regardless, the only way to properly deal with Xanry would be to deliberately lose to him for a few rounds. Allowing Xanry to be smug the first few rounds would definitely make Gerald's eventual victory much sweeter.
With that in mind, Gerald then shouted, "Five fives!"
Upon hearing that, Xanry couldn't help but smile as he declared, "Open!"
Since Xanry had chosen to open Gerald's dice, Gerald naturally had to do so.
Looking at the results, the points of the dice didn't add up to five fives. Instead, there were only three fives, which meant that Gerald had lost this round.
Of course, the loss was calculated, and Gerald was still perfectly under control of the situation.
"Alas, it seems you've lost, Mr. Crawford!" said Xanry as he looked at the indifferent Gerald.
Gerald himself didn't really care about the loss. After all, it was only seventy-five dollars. In a way, he was simply returning Xanry's own money to him, and it was a detail that Gerald honestly found both hilarious and pathetic.
Regardless, after being handed the money, Xanry quickly took it from Gerald. It was almost as though he was worried that the money would disappear or something, and it clearly showed just how much Xanry cared about money.
Either way, now that he had finally won some cash, Xanry immediately said, "Shall we continue, Mr. Crawford?"
"Fine by me!" replied Gerald as both of them began shaking their dice again...
The second they stopped shaking, Xanry instantly said, "Since you lost in the previous round, you'll start first, Mr. Crawford!"
Nodding and knowing for a fact with the aid of his keen hearing-that Xanry had two threes and three fives, Gerald deliberately answered wrongly to let Xanry win again by declaring, "Three fives!" Gerald himself had the exact opposite digits, with him having two fives and three threes.
Whatever the case was, Xanry then shouted, "Four fours!"
Naturally, it was a number that neither of them had.
To be quite frank, Gerald really wanted to open Xanry's dice now, but he refrained. After all, he didn't want Xanry to lose that quickly. In order to make Xanry's defeat really sting, Gerald was going to allow Xanry to wallow in victory for a few rounds first...
