With that, the duo then began shaking their dice around for a few secondsâ¦
Once both of them stopped, Xanry immediately smiled as he said, âAfter you, Mr. Crawford! Make your guess!â
Hearing that, Gerald then declared, âThree sixes!â
âI see! Four sixes then!â shouted Xanry in response.
From what Gerald had been able to hear, he knew that Xanry definitely had two sixes. Gerald had two sixes himself, which was why he definitely couldnât open it.
Regardless, the only way to properly deal with Xanry would be to deliberately lose to him for a few rounds. Allowing Xanry to be smug the first few rounds would definitely make Geraldâs eventual victory much sweeter.
With that in mind, Gerald then shouted, âFive fives!â
Upon hearing that, Xanry couldnât help but smile as he declared, âOpen!â
Since Xanry had chosen to open Geraldâs dice, Gerald naturally had to do so.
Looking at the results, the points of the dice didnât add up to five fives. Instead, there were only three fives, which meant that Gerald had lost this round.
Of course, the loss was calculated, and Gerald was still perfectly under control of the situation.
âAlas, it seems youâve lost, Mr. Crawford!â said Xanry as he looked at the indifferent Gerald.
Gerald himself didnât really care about the loss. After all, it was only seventy-five dollars. In a way, he was simply returning Xanryâs own money to him, and it was a detail that Gerald honestly found both hilarious and pathetic.
Regardless, after being handed the money, Xanry quickly took it from Gerald. It was almost as though he was worried that the money would disappear or something, and it clearly showed just how much Xanry cared about money.
Either way, now that he had finally won some cash, Xanry immediately said, âShall we continue, Mr.
Crawford?â
âFine by me!â replied Gerald as both of them began shaking their dice againâ¦
The second they stopped shaking, Xanry instantly said, âSince you lost in the previous round, youâll start first, Mr. Crawford!â
Nodding and knowing for a factâwith the aid of his keen hearingâthat Xanry had two threes and three fives, Gerald deliberately answered wrongly to let Xanry win again by declaring, âThree fives!â
Gerald himself had the exact opposite digits, with him having two fives and three threes.
Whatever the case was, Xanry then shouted, âFour fours!â
Naturally, it was a number that neither of them had.
To be quite frank, Gerald really wanted to open Xanryâs dice now, but he refrained. After all, he didnât want Xanry to lose that quickly. In order to make Xanryâs defeat really sting, Gerald was going to allow Xanry to wallow in victory for a few rounds firstâ¦
