Chapter 364 Pretty Girls Won’t Have Bad Luck

Luo Quan and the others arrived earlier, there were not many gamblers in the casino, and Seifert had nowhere to place his bets with a pile of chips.

Pachinko doesn't have this kind of trouble, it can be played by oneself.

There are several types of pachinko, including those that rely on manual pinball play and those that use a pachinko machine.

The machine type in the casino belongs to the former. You can throw beads from the outside and press the button to launch. The marbles are launched into the prize pool and then fall in the dense obstacle piles. There are many grooves at the bottom of the machine, and each groove has 0, Numbers like 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, where the pop-up marbles land, represent the rewards you get for this round of shooting.

The area of ​​the groove is inversely proportional to the number of rewards, with 0 accounting for the largest proportion. In other words, the pop-up marbles are easiest to fall into, which means thank you for your patronage.

In the center of the bottom of the machine, there is a groove that occupies an area not much larger than a fingernail. There is no number on that part, but there is an extremely conspicuous "prize".

If you're lucky and land here, you'll win and you'll get a special lottery chance.

However, it would be too naive to think that you can get a large number of marble rewards through this. This is just a lottery.

After getting the first round of lottery opportunities, a third-equal roulette wheel will appear on the electronic screen in the center of the screen, with various fruits on it. Only after getting two of the same patterns can you proceed to the next round of lottery. To put it bluntly, This link is very similar to a slot machine.

If you only draw three different images, it is equivalent to thank you for your patronage and there is no reward.

However, if you are lucky and draw three identical patterns, congratulations, the next reward will be directly multiplied by ten times. If you are more lucky and draw three gold ingots, then the next reward will be directly multiplied by ten times. A hundred times!

After passing this round of slot machines, it’s time to reach the penultimate step—drawing multiples of rewards.

Various numbers will be repeatedly arranged on a square frame, with the minimum being 0 and the maximum being 10. If the previous slot machine link is a gold ingot and a big three yuan, then the maximum multiplier that can be drawn is a full 1,000 times!

The last step is to start comparing hand speed. After the countdown starts, every time you press the launch button on the pinball machine, you can get a return of the multiple you drew. In the best case, if you launch one, you can get 100. Stars!

It sounds like this thing is like a Russian matryoshka doll. One link is nested within another link. If you are unlucky in one step, it may be all in vain.

But such a thing, which sounds no different from cheating money, is one of the most popular game consoles in Japan, and the revenue generated by it accounts for about 4% of Japan’s annual tax revenue. At its peak, Even comparable to Japan's automobile industry!

Luo Quan had heard of the name Pachinko when he was studying in Japan. When watching TV dramas, he would occasionally see scenes of the protagonist playing Pachinko, so he was a little curious about this thing.

However, this thing can only be played by adults over 21 years old. She has seen it many times in Japan, but has never touched it once.

She was finally able to operate it today, and she was quite excited.

Like most pachinko pinball machines on the market, the one in front of you is quite fancy both in appearance and the content on the electronic screen. The speakers are also playing hard to play the female voice's shouts, and the screen is constantly changing patterns without any scruples. The ground releases sound and light pollution.

This is just one machine. In Japanese pachinko parlors, there are often dozens or hundreds of machines shouting and flashing at the same time. You can imagine how bad the environment is.

However, there is scientific evidence that such a noisy environment will greatly stimulate the guests' senses and promote the secretion of adrenaline. It is easy for the guests to lose their minds and keep putting marbles and banknotes into the machine.

By the time I came to my senses, I had probably lost hundreds of thousands of yen.

In order to avoid this situation, Luo Quan set a limit for himself from the beginning and only exchanged beads worth 20 US dollars. If he was unlucky and lost all his money, he could decide whether to continue after calming down.

Since there were no other gamblers at the moment, the three brothers exchanged their chips and sat next to Luo Quan to see how she played this kid's game console.

Luo Quan put more than a hundred marbles into the launch chamber and pressed the button.

With a crisp sound of "bang", the marbles flew out, jumped out of the oval pipe and began to jump between the obstacle piles.

The marbles can be fired continuously, but as a newbie, Luo Quan plays more cautiously. He fires once and waits for the marbles to hit the ground before pressing the second shot.

Like most novices, the beads launched by Luo Quan landed in the groove of 0 after the collision, and the passionate music immediately turned into a lament of loss, as if the machine was also grieving for Luo Quan's misfortune.

Then, Luo Quan pressed the second shot, 0

Third shot, 0.

The fourth shot, 0.

The fifth shot, 0.

Sixth shot, prize!

"Wuhu!" Luo Quan cheered. She won the prize. It seemed that she was quite lucky.

"You won the lottery so quickly! Why is there no movement?" The three brothers gathered around. According to their understanding, after winning the lottery, the pinball machine should spray marbles from the exit.

"This is just the first round, there are two more rounds to go." Luo Quan successfully entered the slot machine stage, but this was just the beginning.

After pressing the button, the three-quarter roulette wheel began to rotate, and the screen behind it also played the animation scene. Luo Quan took a closer look, and it turned out to be the scene of Kaneki's awakening in "Ghoul".

This was a pretty good job, but unfortunately after the slot machine stopped, three different patterns appeared, and everything had to start from the beginning again.

Next, Luo Quan began to repeat endlessly, launching - 0, launching - 0, occasionally bouncing to 5 or 10, and getting some consolation prizes.

There were two occasions when I fell to the "prize", but I never made it past the second round.

Unknowingly, there was only one marble left in the Luoquan firing pool. More than a hundred beads were exchanged for 20 US dollars, and all of them were gone in less than five minutes.

In Japan, there are 3.5 million serious pachinko addicts who play pachinko for hours whenever they can afford it.

If she followed her method of losing, she would probably lose thousands of dollars every time she played Pachinko!

"Money-eating monster..." Luo Quan shook her head and sighed. She was done playing, and she was ready to launch the last marble and stop.

"Is this gone?" The three brothers were watching and didn't even understand the complete rules. There was only one bead left in Luo Quan.

Seifert mocked: "It seems like you're not very lucky either."

Luo Quan rolled his eyes at him: "The total capital is only 20 yuan, how much do you expect to win?"

With that said, he pressed launch.

Seeing that the bead was bouncing straight in the direction of 0, Luo Quan stood up and planned to leave.

Who knows, the bead actually bounced off the last obstacle and rolled into the prize slot.

"Yeah, I still have a chance to thank you for your patronage." Luo Quan laughed at himself and sat back to continue the second round of drawing.

"It's not me that's wrong, it's the whole world!" The picture of Jin Mu's awakening appeared again. The animation was accompanied by Luo Quan's own singing, and the roulette wheel also spun. The scene was once very chaotic.

"Lucky!!!" an excited female voice sounded from the machine, and all three symbols on the slot machine turned into gold ingots.

"A hundred times! A hundred times!" Luo Quan suddenly became energetic and everything seemed to be getting better.

In the third round, the reward multiplier is drawn.

Luo Quan quickly pressed the start button, and the cursor started rolling in Luo Quan's excited eyes.

At this time, Luo Quan was staring at the cursor on the screen with more concentration than when he was recording the song.

She finally understood why this thing had such great magic power. Although she had already achieved financial freedom, this feeling of growing from a small to a big one and getting rich overnight was unmatched by many forms of entertainment.

How many people are so addicted to such fantasies that they end up going bankrupt and having their wives and children separated before they even think about regretting it.

Fortunately, she was not short of money after all. She thought that even if it jumped a thousand times, how much money would she get in exchange for it? It wouldn't be as much as she could earn by just singing a song casually, so she quickly calmed down. down.

Perhaps the Pachinko Pachinko machine knew what Luo Quan was thinking, because after a while of scrolling, the cursor actually jumped ten times.

This is the first prize of this machine. The celebratory fireworks exploded directly on the screen of the machine. Luo Quan also jumped up excitedly and looked at the three brothers beside him: "Quick, quick, quick, whoever has the fastest hand, give me some." one time!"

The three brothers were a little at a loss for a moment and looked at each other. How do you know who has the faster hand?

"Hurry up, the countdown has started." Luo Quan looked at the countdown on the screen anxiously. When the time is up, he will start shooting marbles to collect rewards!

"Come on Leon, Leon has been single for so many years, he must be the fastest among us!" Seifert pushed Leon out.

"Fuck you!" Leon was angry and funny, but despite his sister's anxious urging, he still put his hand on the button.

"As soon as the countdown is over, press the button as fast as you can." After Luo Quan said the precautions, the countdown just ended.

"Bang, bang, bang!" Leon's fingers flicked rapidly, one marble after another was fired at an extremely high frequency, and the numbers in the center of the screen seemed to be flying upwards on a rocket.

Although it only lasted ten seconds, after pressing the button, Leon's entire right arm was already extremely sore.

"God, I can't feel my right hand." Leon shook his arm and gasped.

"48 times in ten seconds, that's okay, Leon!" Luo Quan looked at the numbers on the screen in surprise, and said with great satisfaction, "Here, let me rub it for you."

Not everyone can enjoy the massage service in Luoquan. Seifert and Fred looked on with envy.

Seifert regretted: "Damn it, if I had known, I would have done it myself."

"These are the fruits of my labor." Leon raised his finger and shook it. Sure enough, having a craft is quite important.

After rewarding her brother, Luo Quan turned to look at Brother Pachinko. This time she won the jackpot with a multiplier of 1,000. Leon pressed the button 48 times, which meant that 48,000 marbles could be produced.

There are definitely not so many beads in the machine, but you can ask the store for gift cards of equal value based on the numbers.

Gambling is illegal in Japan, and marbles won from pachinko are not allowed to be exchanged for Japanese yen.

However, there are policies from above and countermeasures from below.

The store will prepare some special gift cards, and customers who win marbles can redeem these gift cards.

And near the pachinko shop, you can always find some small shops in the corner, where you can exchange gift cards for Japanese yen.

Although it is more troublesome, it has successfully exploited the loopholes of Japanese law, which is also the key to Pachinko's continued success to this day.

Of course, there is no need for so much in the casino on the ship. The marbles can be directly exchanged for chips or cash. 48,000 marbles are equivalent to nearly 10,000 US dollars!

Luo Quan wanted to play for a while longer, so he exchanged 20 blue chips with a face value of 500.

"Did you see it? In less than ten minutes, it has doubled five hundred times!" Luo Quan proudly showed off the chips in his hand, with a sense of accomplishment on his face.

And Seifert still said the same thing: "It's just a small amount of chips, what's enough?"

"Tch!" As a winner, Luo Quan said he would not argue with the loser.

After playing Pachinko, Luo Quan never touched this machine again.

It was okay to have sex occasionally, but she was afraid that her hearing would be damaged if she played for too long. The noise of this machine was too loud, and not everyone could tolerate it.

After sitting in the casino for a while, the casino door opened, and groups of guests leaving the dance floor entered.

Although dancing is their arty hobby, it is not competitive at all compared to fighting in the casino. Whether they are middle-aged people or young people in their early twenties, they all walked into the casino in groups.

Among them, there is also Luo Quan's father.

"Daughter?!" Eric was very surprised when he saw Luo Quan arrived before him, "This is not a place suitable for a girl like you."

A fat middle-aged man laughed: "Don't be so pedantic, Eric, my eldest niece is also an adult, so she can try some new things.

Besides, there are all acquaintances here, how can she still lose? "

"Uncle Eric, Luo Quan had good luck in gambling today. He just won the first prize playing the pinball machine and won ten thousand US dollars with 20 US dollars!" Seifert directly talked about Luo Quan's "highlight moment".

But the people around me laughed when they heard it. 20 dollars for a pinball machine, why did it sound so childish?

However, girls who have just grown up can only play so much. However, the gambling capital has been increased five hundred times, which sounds awesome, but the initial capital is only 20 US dollars, so even if the gambling capital is increased five thousand times, there is nothing surprising.

He is indeed a child, a group of adults thought.

Eric didn't hesitate too much: "Then... you just take Luo Quan and play with Augusta and the others. I'm here to play some games with my friends. If you need anything, just come to me."

"By the way, where's mom?" Luo Quan asked.

"She went to the bathroom, she'll be here later." Eric said, and sat down at the table with a group of friends. The beautiful dealer and the waiter dressed as a bunny girl that Luo Quan had been waiting for for a long time finally appeared.
