Chapter 242 Ugly appearance
"A blind man who likes gambling..."
These two characteristics put together made Jin An stop in his tracks. He suddenly remembered that there was a person who fit these two characteristics very well.
Seeing Jin An suddenly stop, Tian Yueshi asked curiously:
"what happened?"
"It's okay, let's keep walking."
Jinan smiled and shook his head, then continued walking forward while pulling Tianyueshi.
He was just a little curious about why Yisheng (smile) was here.
But when he thought of the special nature of the Sabaody Archipelago, he felt relieved.
Inside the casino, Yisheng opened his tightly closed eyes and turned his head towards the casino door.
In the dim light, his eyes, with only the whites of them, looked somewhat scary.
"What an interesting person..."
He muttered to himself, sensing a pair of eyes on him just now. He could feel that the person seemed somewhat familiar with him.
"Hey! Blind man, do you want to play or not? We are all waiting for you!"
A gruff man urged impatiently.
Yisheng came back to his senses and said with a smile:
"Play, don't be in a hurry..."
His train of thought was interrupted by the man's urging, but he was not angry. Instead, he joined the gambling game with ease.
He sat at the gambling table, tapping his fingers on the surface, as if thinking about something.
Although he cannot see, his keen hearing and intuition allow him to accurately perceive everything around him.
The men opposite were shouting loudly and the sounds of dice rolling could be heard one after another, but Yisheng's expression remained calm.
Meanwhile, Jinan and Tianyueshi continued walking down the street, the sun shining on them, bringing warmth and reassurance.
Tianyue looked up at Jinan from time to time, with a gentle smile on her face.
"Jin'an, are you happy to come out this time?"
Tian Yueshi suddenly spoke in a gentle voice.
"Sometimes, I really feel that it is a blessing to have you by my side."
Jin An looked down at the other person, his eyes flashing with doting.
"Ashi, why do you suddenly say that?"
"Maybe it's because I feel particularly relaxed today."
Tian Yueshi smiled.
"With you by my side, everything becomes easier."
Tian Yueshi smiled sweetly, her heart filled with warmth.
She leaned gently on Jin'an's shoulder, and the two continued to stroll along the street, enjoying the rare peaceful moment.
"Oh, by the way, I remember when I was unconscious before, I heard you say that Lu Jiu's baby was about to be born?"
Jinan's voice seemed particularly warm in the afternoon sun.
Tian Yueshi looked up at him, a soft light in her eyes.
She nodded slightly, with a gentle smile on her face.
"That's right, Sister Lu Jiu is really an extremely gentle and strong person."
Jin An tilted his head slightly and calculated the time in his mind. It seemed that it was really almost time for Ace to speak.
With Jin'an's intervention, Lujiu didn't have to go through 20 months of suffering.
Just like an ordinary mother, she can give birth safely after 10 months of pregnancy.
Tian Yueshi's expression became more serious. She sighed softly and continued:
"Many times, I really think Sister Lu Jiu is amazing. She has taken on so much on her own."
Jin An frowned slightly, as if thinking about something.
"Sky Island is a good place. I hope time can heal the wounds she has suffered."
Tian Yueshi's eyes became softer.
"Yes, Sister Lu Jiu has always been strong."
"She never complained and always endured everything silently, for the sake of her children and the future."
She was a little confused and asked,
"Why is Sister Lu Jiu staying alone on Sky Island? Where is her husband?"
Although Jin An asked them to go to Sky Island to accompany the lonely woman, he did not tell them about her situation.
They couldn't ask Lu Jiu about this kind of thing, so they only asked the questions in their hearts now.
Jin An paused.
"She is the wife of a friend of mine."
"That guy was suffering from an incurable disease, and before he died, he entrusted Lu Jiu to me."
There is some sadness when the moon is bright.
"Sister Lu Jiu really has a hard life..."
Jin An felt a desire to protect her. He held Tian Yueshi's hand and patted it gently.
"That's why I asked you to go up and talk to her more often, so that she knows she is not fighting alone."
Tian Yueshi looked at Jin An excitedly, tears flashing in her eyes, and she said softly:
"I hope the world will return to peace soon, so people can live a happy life."
Jin An gently rubbed Tian Yueshi's head.
"That day will surely come..."
He will surely bring peace to this world.
With what he is doing behind the World Government's back, if it is exposed, the World Government will never let him go.
......
On the other side, inside the casino.
Yisheng's fingers slid lightly on the edge of the dice cup, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
His opponents all showed nervous expressions, and were obviously wary of this seemingly ordinary blind man.
"You are so lucky, blind man."
A man said through gritted teeth.
Yisheng smiled faintly and shook the dice cup in his hand lightly, making a crisp sound.
"Luck is also part of strength, isn't it?"
Amidst everyone's astonished and unwilling gazes, the dice cup was slowly opened, and the result once again surprised everyone.
A lifetime win.
His pupil-less eyes seemed to reveal an elusive mystery that made people shudder.
“What an interesting place…”
Isamu whispered, as if talking to himself.
He could feel that this place was hiding many secrets, and the person who had just left also had many secrets.
"Come on! Keep going. I don't believe I can't beat a blind man like you!"
"..."
Looking at the ugly appearance of these people, he smiled lightly and didn't care at all, muttering to himself,
"It is a blessing not to be able to see anything. There are too many dirty and despicable people in the world that are hard to bear to look at."
And yet he just wanders in this turbid world.
"Blind man, did you just say something?"
Because the casino was too noisy, he only saw Yisheng's mouth move.
"I mean, I still want to win this round! Hahahaha!"
He laughed all his life, and today he was going to make a fortune again.
Gambling all his life is different from what other gamblers pursue. What he enjoys is the process of gambling, and even if he loses in the end he just laughs it off.
Others only look at the results, and even if they win briefly along the way, they will only wonder why they didn't bet bigger before.
After losing, they will not consider stopping, but will become more and more addicted until they lose everything.
Until then, he will not reflect on himself, but will only think about how to turn the situation around next time.
Once addicted to gambling, a person is almost ruined.
