The Deadly Assassin Robin

Chapter 256 Brenda, Let's Get Out of Here!

Brenda anxiously gripped Robin's hand. "Robin, please don't ..."

Hugh snapped, "Brenda, what are you doing?"

Robin offered a comforting pat on her back. "It's alright. Just sit here and watch."

He then shifted his attention to Hugh. "This is my first time in a casino. If I win, can I really take all this money with me?"

Hugh exchanged amused glances with Nico, chuckling at Robin's obvious inexperience.

"Robin, Croc's casino runs on trust," Hugh said with a playful grin.

"If you win, that 300,000 right there is yours!"

Robin pointed his finger at Hugh. "You said that. Since you're Brenda's friend, I believe you."

Hugh pounded his chest dramatically. "Croc has been in this game for years and always plays straight.

"You can even ask around; we've never cheated our patrons."

Nico, wearing a serious expression, nodded in agreement. "I run the show here! Integrity is vital in a casino!

"Gambling is all about taking risks and accepting the outcomes. Let's kick this off already!

"Don't worry; if you win, that money will be yours!

"However," he added, his tone turning grave, "if you lose and go back on your word, I'll have to chop your hands off."

Robin chuckled at the ridiculousness of the threat.

"Okay! Hugh, Croc, since you both promise to play fair, I feel a bit more at ease.

"Just so you know, I've never set foot in a casino before.

"There are some things I need to clarify from the start; if I win, what should I do next?

"Hugh, can you explain? So, whoever rolls the higher number wins, right?"

Hugh quickly recognized that Robin was genuinely a novice.

He exchanged another knowing look with Nico and responded with a smile, "That's correct, Robin! Once you and Blondie roll the dice, whoever has the higher number takes home all 600,000." "Alright, I understand. Let's get started," Robin said, waving his hand enthusiastically.

Brenda attempted to express her worries through her gaze.

How could she trust anything these people said?

They were nothing but swindlers.

Win or lose, there was no way they'd leave with a single penny today.

Hugh signaled for his men to bring over two cups and two dice.

He personally showcased the cups and dice in front of Robin and Blondie.

"Robin, Blondie, you can see there's nothing wrong with these dice or cups. Pick your sets."

Robin gestured for Blondie to go first. "You go ahead; I'm fine with it. It's just about rolling higher numbers, right?
