As he walked back to the casino, a fat and short man who was absurdly well-dressed stood in front
of a table, looking and smiling at him. "Welcome back, you are a bit slow, don't you? Mr. Ander-
son, or perhaps I should call you Mr. Windsor?" The man had a sudden but subtle change on his
face, but he then adjusted it quickly. "Anderson is good enough, sir." "Well, Mr.Anderson, should
we continue the gamble then?" "Absolutely, I will take it seriously this time, and I'm sure you'll lose
it hardly." The fat man smiled and said: "Well, then I'll wish you good luck!"
Windsor walked into a room with the guidance of the fat man. They sat down facing each
other. On the table, there was a deck of playing cards. The fat man started to speak while the judge
was shuffling the cards. "The game is called Tai-Sai, the rule is simple, both of us take four cards
each round, the one who place a higher bet will decide whether they are going to compare who has
bigger or smaller numbers." "I understood, please start the game now." Windsor put on his glasses
and said. The first round started. Windsor quickly cast a glance at his cards and directly placed a
million dollars. The fat man seemed surprised and put a lower amount, Windsor chose to compare
with smaller numbers, and he won. Windsor won effortlessly for the next five rounds like that
Winsdor already knew what cards the fat man was holding. Slowly, a sense of trepidation appeared
on the fat man's face, he already lost a billion dollars, and it seemed that he was going to lose every-

doubt. During the moment in the darkness, he saw something shining on Windsor's hand, but what
For the following several rounds, Windsor lost some of them, but only for a few, and he just
lost a bit of money for those rounds like he had already known he was going to lose. The time
flashed quickly, on the last game, Windsor placed all of his money in, the fat man didn't have
enough money to surpass, but he knew that he must be the one who decides, or else, he might lose
all of his money in a big chance. At last, he chose to place all of his properties. The atmosphere in
the room was quiet but tense because soon, one of the two-man was going to lose everything and
became super poor. When the fat man decided to compare with more significant numbers, the light
went out again, and this time, the fat man saw the shining thing again, but clearly, the shape looked
like numbers written with highlighters on the back of the cards. Suddenly, the fat man understood
everything; he jumped onto Windsor, pinched his neck and shouted: "You hypocrite! Cheater! How
dare you cheat on me and in my casino, you wrote the numbers corresponding to the cards on the
back with a special kind of highlighter, and that glasses you wore, you might use that to see the
numbers, am I right?" The blue veins stood out on his temples, and the fat man's voice became
