Chapter 97. The Future Different From The Past, Part III

'I'll be fine if I take a day off tomorrow.'

So she thought she would have to take a good rest for a day or so. She still had time until summer anyway. It was okay not to rush.

Aria, who was determined to stay just today, squeezed her last remaining strength and headed for the casino. Annie, who got used to it after only three tries, ordered the drink herself. Unlike Annie, however, Aria just wanted to finish the game quickly and go back as soon as possible. She was about to fall down right away.

"I'll be back soon, so don't drink too much and wait."

"Uh, wait! Miss! I'm coming with you!"

"No, I'll be back soon so wait."

So Aria left before her drink even came out. If she took Annie, she would lose her time because of Annie's useless remarks. Aria hurriedly walked away, and Annie looked at Aria's back with a disappointed face.

Spectators flocked to the arrival of Aria, who had won for two consecutive days. Although she covered half of her face with a mask, her unique blonde hair and fascinating lips made her special.

'I'm going to take a rest for a while even if I'm not tired.'

With this attention, there would be restrictions on her behavior. Someone might suspect her identity and investigate her.

"Diamond 8."

She turned over the hourglass, and as she picked a card, the voices of spectators and game players around her became noisy.

"She's not going to win three times in a row."

"Maybe! It's been like that all this time."

"If she really wins three times in a row, we can choose her card from now on!"

"That's the way! You're smart, aren't you?"

Aria clicked her tongue at the remark. She hadn't thought so, but if so, everyone would win and her dividend would be low. She put the hourglass back in the box, thinking she might have to wear a wig next time.

"Diamond 8!"

No one had won three consecutive games in the entire history of the casino. Unlike other card games in which each round a winner would come out, it was hard to win even once. Unlike bead roulette, it was impossible to manipulate the game with employees.

"... nonsense!"

"What the hell happened?!"

"I'm sure she did some magic! For example, the magic of clairvoyance!"

Aria, who confirmed her victory, got up from her seat.

"Is she leaving now again?"

"She's not playing another game, is she?"

"Let's follow her."

"Good idea! Let's ask her to tell us how to do it!"

Unlike before, there were a bunch of people that followed behind her. They were faster than she thought. It would be best for her to leave the casino quickly, but she couldn't increase her distance between her pursuers even though she was quick on her feet. In the first place, it was almost impossible for Aria, who was in high-heeled shoes, to elude men in soft leather shoes.

"Hey! Wait a minute!"

"Let's have a conversation!"

"Hey!"
