Fair Play Card Deck の小説・ストーリー

“And what kind of ‘play’ did they do?” “Well, did you know that in a normal deck of cards there are 4 aces? That means that in a single deck there is the possibility of getting black jack only 4 times? But if there are more than one deck then you multiply 4 times the number of decks. So, in a shoe with 6 decks there are 24 aces and a possibility of 24 blackjacks! That’s not even taking into account that a normal deck there are 4 cards per suit that equal 10. 4 suits in a deck times 4 equals 16 cards that equal 10.”

Once that had been engaged, he changed the spell to suit his skill. "Okay, so I'm gonna flip for this summon. Major arcana is worth ten with exception of the Fool which can be one or ten. Court cards are five points and number cards as numbered. Summon goes well if I beat the house to fifteen. So, shall we? The game is Four-Count Stand Off." Jinx split the deck. He started to flick the cards into the summon circle. As some of them landed not just right side up but standing on end vertically, he started counting up the score for the house. "Two… Seven… Eleven."

That is highly possible as this is a 52 standard deck card with four 7s and seven of each of other shapes, the heart, the spades, the diamonds and seven of clubs. But with the Jack in my card, it seems a suit with 2 -10 of Jack, Ace and the King Card should be there. I don’t think much of it, I also pick up another card from the middle of the table. I picked up another card and it was 3 spades. A good card as it compliments the rest of my ponds. Cain picks up another card and we continue going in circles around each other until the deck has only two cards remaining. This time, my luck runs thin as I pick up 2 of the clubs. The number wasn’t even on my card before, making it 3,3,3,3,7,7,7,J,J

I glanced at Liam to ensure he was comfortable, and he nodded. Toralei explained the rules of the game: we would spin the bottle, and whoever it pointed to would pick a card from the box. The card would determine whether the person would be dared or asked a question. Toralei spun the bottle slowly, and my heart raced as I followed its movement. It eventually stopped, pointing directly at me. What terrible luck. "Alright, Jenna," Toralei said, passing me the box. I reache d inside and searched its contents before selecting a piece of paper.

“Please, if it’s money you want, I can give it all to you. Just please let me go. I can’t breathe.” Laughter erupted from what I assumed was three guys as one of them said in a taunting voice. “That sounds like a lovely plan but I don’t think you can pay us enough to let you go,” he barked and the others erupted in another round of laughter. “But I suppose I can think about it after my boys and I take what we want from you.”
