Chapter 533 Ruining the place

The existence of the second level of “Ze” has always been a secret, but it is not obscure.

It’s like the campus legend that often circulates in schools, that a staircase that originally had twelve steps would have thirteen steps when counted at night.

There is also an urban legend circulating in “Ze” that as long as you can win enough steel balls in one day, you can enter the second-level casino which is only open to a small number of people.

Legend has it that the second floor is only open to a small number of people, and the pachinko parlor on the first floor is just a cover, and the second floor is the real “swamp”. In the casino on the second floor, everything can be used as a chip, and you also have the opportunity to win everything you want.

Basically, regular customers who come to this pachinko parlor have heard of this urban legend, but there are also people who believe in this legend but have never put it into practice.

How many balls are needed to win enough?
Without a specific number, how can you win the entire store’s marbles? Maybe this is just a rumor to trick you into putting more marbles into the pachinko machine.

Kousaka Jinna also frowned for a few seconds. Those who could get the invitation to enter the second level were either wealthy or powerful people, or at least members of popular idol groups; or they were desperate criminals favored by the boss.

The number of one million machines is already a considerable amount of money for ordinary people, equivalent to several months’ salary of an ordinary office worker, but it is nothing for their shop, which is just the daily turnover of a few pachinko machines.

The boy was a bit naive to just exchange a check for a ticket to the second floor. If Miss Sakurai hadn’t asked her to politely ask the boy to leave, Kousaka Jinna would have even wanted the gang members watching over the store to threaten and intimidate him to leave, and she wouldn’t even want to leave the store for the million dollars.

After a brief thought, Kousaka Jinna refused without hesitation: “My dear guest, I don’t know what you are talking about. ‘Ze’ has always only had this floor, and the second floor is our employee lounge.”

Lu Mingfei said: “Really?”

Kousaka Jinna bowed slightly, without a single flaw on her beautiful face: “Yes.”

Aki beside him also tugged at Lu Mingfei’s sleeve and whispered, “This Miss Kosaka’s expression seems a little real. Junior Brother Lu, are you sure this pachinko shop really has a second floor?”

Lu Mingfei was not sure whether this store had a second floor, but he was sure that Lu Mingze would never give him useless things.

From past experience, Lu Mingze’s information was neither too much nor too little, and every piece of information was useful. Lu Mingze left him a “Osaka Travel Guide” manual, indicating that he could find the fierce ghosts and the source girl through the information in this guide.

It’s like when you are playing a galgame and you get information that the heroine likes to eat strawberry ice cream, then you can definitely use this information in the subsequent plot of conquering the heroine and choose the correct option to seduce the heroine.

If you forget this information, I’m sorry, you may end up choosing the wrong option and end up with a tragic bad end, and you will need to go back and read the save file and start over again.

The Osaka Travel Guide introduced this pachinko parlor and even recorded the legend that “if you win enough steel balls in one day, you can enter the second floor.” This means that the second floor exists.

The reason why the assistant manager named Takasaka refused to admit the existence of the second level could only mean that he had not won enough steel balls yet.

Kousaka Jinna looked at Lu Mingfei. The onlookers were all looking at Lu Mingfei. They were waiting to see what choice Lu Mingfei would make. The other party’s refusal was obvious and polite enough. A normal person would have just accepted the check and left.

Lu Mingfei suddenly sighed, turned around, shrugged helplessly, and switched to Chinese to communicate with Aki, Ling, and Xia Mi: “Senior sister, Ling, junior sister, can you do me a favor?”

Then Lu Mingfei told Aji and the others what he wanted them to do for him.

Yaji stared blankly, “Junior brother, are you sure you want to do this? Are you so sure?”

Xia Mi nodded: “Let Senior Brother try, I feel that Senior Brother has good luck today.”

Aki, Ling, and Xia Mi each picked up two boxes of steel balls, walked around the crowd and came to a pachinko machine. Before anyone could react, they poured boxes of steel balls into the machine’s basket.

There was a brief silence. No one realized what Lu Mingfei and his team were going to do. The girls picked up a new box of steel balls and walked to a new pachinko machine. They put the steel balls in one box after another, and each pouring action was neat and beautiful.

“Wait a minute, is he going to…”

Finally someone realized what Lu Mingfei was going to do, and an expression of strong disbelief appeared on his face.

At this time Lu Mingfei finally moved.

He walked to a pachinko machine with steel balls already inserted. He turned the knob. The pachinko screen suddenly had a torrent of marbles falling from a window in heavy rain, and countless marbles were accurately fired into the lottery holes.

Lu Mingfei didn’t even wait for the lottery screen to appear, he walked straight to another pachinko machine next to him and turned the knob again.

Twist, twist, twist. In an instant, steel balls rained down from the screens of every pachinko machine. The piercing sound of metal balls hitting and rolling against each other was endless. The whole place was filled with the sound of steel balls and the sound of pachinko machines shaking prizes. And Lu Mingfei didn’t even turn his head.

He “Show Hand”!

He wants to put all the winning balls into the pachinko machines and blow up every one of them!
The crowd cheered, and some of the audience members who were drinking to their heart’s content even started clapping. Everyone had a premonition that something big was about to happen, and they were extremely excited. They were all regular customers of this pachinko parlor, and of course they had all heard of the urban legend about the second floor. And Lu Mingfei’s actions at this time were obviously challenging that urban legend.

No one knows how many steel balls you need to win to get a ticket to the second level.

But wouldn’t it be enough to just blow up every pachinko machine and win all the balls?

The guy in front of him can obviously do this. He has already blown up countless pachinko machines, and sooner or later he will blow up every pachinko machine in this store. This kind of miracle may only happen once in a lifetime.

There were cheers, screams, and whistles. They raised their hands high and applauded enthusiastically for this young-looking guy.

Aki, Xia Mi, and Ling continued to put steel balls into the new pachinko machine. And Kousaka Jinna’s face became more and more ugly.

There seemed to be some other sound, mixed in with the cheers and the sound of the steel balls rolling and colliding. Some people recognized it as the ringtone of a cell phone. This sound was the default ringtone of Sharp cell phones.

Whose phone is ringing at such an inopportune time?
The applause gradually died down, and everyone fell silent in time. They all saw someone take out a cell phone from his pocket.

Kousaka Jinna opened the cover of the white Sharp V903sh and put it to her ear, with a respectful expression, and bowed her head and said “yes” several times.

Ms. Kosaka answered the phone with such respect. Everyone speculated that it was the legendary boss behind the scenes who called personally.
She also learned about what the boy had done, and finally couldn’t stand his disruptive behavior anymore, so she ordered Miss Kousaka to be severely punished?

The gang members watching over the scene even had their hands on the weapons at their waists, ready to make a move. All they needed was a gesture or a look from Kousaka Jina to point their guns at Lu Mingfei’s head without hesitation and drive him into the black van parked at the door to the outskirts of Osaka city.

At this time, Lu Mingfei was still playing the pachinko machine, as if the phone call had nothing to do with him.

“Yes…yes…I know.”

Miss Kosaka bowed and nodded repeatedly, and after hanging up the phone, she looked up at Lu Mingfei: “Mr. Sakura, please wait a moment!”

Lu Mingfei finally turned around, and Aki, Ling, and Xia Mi, who were holding the marble box, also turned around. Everyone was concentrating and didn’t dare to make a sound.

“What’s the matter?” Lu Mingfei asked in Japanese.

“Please be merciful.”

Ms. Kosaka smiled helplessly, “If this continues, all the steel balls in our store will be won by you alone. If there are only pachinko machines and no steel balls, our store will not be able to do business. I just received a call from the manager. The manager said that he wanted to make friends with you and invited you to meet in the VIP room upstairs. I would like to ask if you can give us this favor.”

Kousaka Jinna didn’t mention the underground casino on the second floor of “Ze”. But everyone around could hear that the manager’s invitation to Lu Mingfei to meet in the VIP room was a hidden message that he agreed to Lu Mingfei’s request. Because the VIP room was upstairs!
It was “Ze” who gave in first! It turns out that the urban legend is true. As long as you can win enough steel balls on the first floor, you will be invited to the second floor!
Lu Mingfei turned around and exchanged glances with the girls around him.

Before he could speak, Kousaka Jinna immediately smiled and said, “You are a VIP, and your friends are naturally also VIPs of our store. Of course, they can go to the VIP room with you to rest.”

Lu Mingfei thought that the assistant manager in front of him was quite sensible. She understood what he meant without him even saying anything.

“Since the manager has invited me sincerely, I can’t refuse.” Lu Mingfei smiled.

“Then please come with me.”

After giving a standard bow, Kousaka Jinna walked in front gracefully to lead the way.

Lu Mingfei, Aki, Xia Mi and Ling followed behind her.

Kousaka Jinna asked: “Do you want the steel balls you won to be converted into cash equivalents and packed in a box, or should I write you a check?”

“No thanks. Since Ms. Sakurai is planning to be friends with me, how can I accept money from a friend?”

Kousaka Jinna nodded in her heart, thinking that as expected, this boy came for the second floor of “Ze” from the beginning, and he really had other purposes… When did the gang get involved with the Chinese?

Huh, weird.

How did he know that the manager who called me just now was Miss Sakurai? Did I let it slip at some point?
