Chapter 14 Mental Breakdown

Click!

The sound of the gun chamber closing echoed through the otherwise silent room, causing everyone to jump.

Lachlan had finally closed the chamber of his revolver. Inside were five bullets, with only one empty slot.

"Don't accuse me of cheating. Check it yourself!" Lachlan said, blindfolded as he slid his revolver across the table towards Snake. Snake and Scar exchanged a glance before Snake picked up the revolver and inspected it thoroughly. It was indeed clean.

As he slid it back to Lachlan, who was still blindfolded, Lachlan flicked open the chamber and spun it around with his hand.

"Kid, this isn't gambling anymore; this is pure suicide,” Snake said in a hoarse voice that lacked its previous calmness and composure. In his eyes, Lachlan was as good as dead.

Gambling always had an element of chance to it; there was always a possibility for victory. But now Snake felt that there was no way out for Lachlan — he would surely die.

"You said it, so how about we bet on it? Can you handle the stakes?" Lachlan played with his revolver in his hand, seemingly unconsciously turning the cylinder.

To everyone else, this was just a casual action without any meaning. After all, he had spun the cylinder many times before and it had stopped randomly. So under these circumstances, no one thought much of him fiddling with the cylinder again.

Besides, from start to finish, Lachlan had covered his eyes with a black cloth.

"Can't handle it? Kid, you still trying to bluff me?" Snake sneered. His expression looked somewhat ferocious.

"Shoot then!"

"You shoot first!"

Snake shouted as everyone's hearts tightened and they stared at Lachlan!

Their eyes didn't dare blink for even a second!

In the next moment, they saw Lachlan’s finger move!

Mason laughed and made a mocking gesture of seeing them off. He felt so satisfied watching Scar and Snake in such a sorry state. It was cathartic! "You think you're tough?
