A thousand.

You want 10-million-yen worth of chips?

Are you serious?

Are you serious?

Suzui, hand over my bag, please.

Okay.

This is 10 million yen in cash.

Now, do you trust me?

You're betting 10 million yen on a single set?

Are you really that stupid?

No...

Stupid is not the word for it.

You're completely insane!

And what's wrong with that?

What?

Isn't insanity the essence of gambling?

In this capitalist world we live in, money is life itself!

Entrusting your life to chance is sheer insanity!

And yet people flock to casinos anyway!

That's because they enjoy the thrill that insanity offers!

In other words,

the crazier the bet, the better!

So what are you waiting for?

I promise it will be a blast!

What?

What's the matter?

Don't tell me

you're getting anxious now.

Fine! I'm in!

The winner will take 10 million yen home!

I'm so excited that I'm shaking!

I feel like I'm about to explode!

It's time!

Let the insanity begin!

Yumeko Jabami, who the hell are you?

Why would you challenge someone like Saotome right off the bat?

And why would you bet 10 million yen

right after losing 1,2 million yen?

That's insane! Betting 10 million yen on a single set of Rock-paper-scissors?

Yumeko Jabami, it's impossible for you to win this!

All right, let's get the voting started!

YUMEKO JABAMI, SECOND YEAR, BLOSSOM CLASS

Isn't making big bets so exhilarating?

Right, it really is exhilarating.

Oh, no, I meant to say "exciting."

Oh, right! Exciting!

Sorry, I meant "exhilarating" after all.

Who cares which adjective you use?

I'll wipe that smug look off your face before you know it!

FINAL SET

Betting 10 million yen...

It's too late now.

YUMEKO: 1,000

MEARI: 1,000

This idiot is pissing me off.

I'm going to enjoy bringing her to her knees.

She will huddle in the corner later,

sobbing, shrieking,

and shaking all over.

I made sure my slaves put in many votes for rock and scissors.

Which means as long as I pull a rock,

I win.

Come on. Rock.

Give me a rock!

Give me a rock!

Yes! I win!

I knew no one could beat me!

You're dead!

You hear that, Yumeko Jabami? You're finished!

Did you think I didn't know?

What?

You're all helping Saotome win, aren't you?

What?

What are you talking about?

You did a poor job hiding it.

Saotome,

in the set where we bet 500,000 yen,

first, you had two rocks, then you had two papers.

And you won both times by playing the same card twice in a row.

That would make anyone suspicious of it.

-Rock, paper, scissors, shoot! -Shoot!

-Rock, paper, scissors, shoot! -Shoot!

-Shoot! -Shoot!

-Shoot! -Shoot!

When the bets were small, you were fine having a mixed hand,

but that's a poor way to disguise your scheme.

If you're going to fool someone, you should be ready to go all in.

You're just making false accusations so that you can back out of this set!

Don't be silly.

That would be a waste.

After all,

things are just starting to get interesting.

Don't tell me she actually thinks she can win.

No, that's impossible.

As long as she doesn't know what I'm going to play,

there's no way! She's just bluffing!

There are barely any papers to play! As long as I play rock, I'll win!

Enough talking.

Show me what you've got!

Don't say...

I didn't warn you.

-Rock, paper, scissors, shoot! -Shoot!

I won!

YUMEKO: 2000, MEARI: 0

What? How?

How... No, this is...

Time to pay up.

If we subtract what I owe

from 10 million yen,

that would be 8,8 million yen.

Be sure to pay every last yen.

Just a minute ago,

you said you couldn't trust me unless I had the cash on hand.

You can pay me the money, right?

I...

What was that?

I can't!

I don't have that amount of money right now!

Could you...

give me a few days?

Or...

you could try...

winning your money back.

I'll be going now.

I hope we get to know each other for real

starting tomorrow.

Jabami!

Oh, it's you, Suzui.

There's something I have to know.

Why did you play paper back there?

It's almost like you knew Saotome would play rock.

That's simple.

What?

I knew right away that Saotome was manipulating the votes.

All I had to do was

figure out which card she had told everyone to vote for.

But how did you do that?

Well, it was actually a bit tricky.

Let's say Saotome had 20 accomplices.

That means all 20 of them would have to vote the same way

for the plan to work.

But there was no pattern to the cards Saotome was playing.

And it would be too hard for everyone to memorize a pattern.

Also, I didn't see Saotome

giving any kind of signal.

So I thought, "Could it be a sound signal?"

But that wasn't it, either.

Which means the one giving the signal

was someone other than Saotome.

Everyone's eyes were focused on one particular spot.

That's right.

The place they were looking at...

was...

right behind me.

They were looking at you, Suzui.

The rest was simple.

I figured out the signal by looking at your hand.

Isn't making big bets so exhilarating?

Right, it really is exhilarating.

A girl should never leave home

without her hand mirror.

I'm sorry!

I owed Saotome money.

I had no choice.

A Doggy has to obey his master.

Here you go.

What?

Consider it a token of my appreciation.

-No, I can't... -Thanks to you,

I had a wonderful first day here.

See you.

Just one more thing!

How did you manage to draw a paper card in the last set?

There were only two or three paper cards in the box!

How did you pull that off?

That was pure luck!

What?

I guess Lady Luck was on my side.

Wait a minute.

You're telling me you weren't sure you were going to win?

You bet 10 million yen on pure chance?

Win or lose, I can't stand games...

where the outcome...

is predetermined.

See you tomorrow. Take care.

In that last set...

Don't say...

I didn't warn you.

She didn't gain anything by saying that she knew the game was fixed.

In fact, that could have made Saotome

change the card she was going to play.

And yet she still said it...

because she thought it was fun to take risks.

She's not an ordinary girl.

She's a complete gambling maniac.

What? Who is this person named Yumeko Jabami?

She is...

a compulsive gambler.

It's just crazy.

I still can't believe it.

Not only did Jabami gamble with 10 million yen on her first day here,

but she saw right through our scheme and even managed to beat Saotome!

Not to mention,

those eyes...

Who in the world is she?

Good morning!

I hope you'll keep showing me how things work around here,

Suzui.

Of course!

Oh, by the way, Jabami...

No, that won't do.

What?

You and I are friends now, right?

Yumeko.

You can call me that from now on.

Yu...

Yume...

Jabami.

I wanted to let you know

that I made a one-million-yen donation to the Student Council,

so my status as a house pet has been lifted.

I'm not a Doggy anymore.

Thank you so much.

That's great!

Congratulations!

I'll figure out a way to pay you back, of course.

The money was a gift.

-No, I can't just... -Don't worry about it.

Yumeko.

SECOND YEAR, BLOSSOM CLASS

Well, look who it is! What's the matter?

Look who's here!

Loser, You're so annoying, Idiot

Saotome,

what are these?

What happened?

Shut up.

This is all because I lost to you!

What?

What did I do?

So, you're not a Doggy anymore.

Itsuki Sumeragi

has challenged Yumeko Jabami to a match.

YURIKO NISHINOTOIN, THIRD YEAR

RUNA YOMOTSUKI, THIRD YEAR

KAEDE MANYUDA, SECOND YEAR

VICE PRESIDENT OF THE STUDENT COUNCIL

Sounds good to me!

First-year pride!

I bet you were surprised to see what happened...

to Saotome this morning.

That is...

one of our school's traditions.

Traditions?

Right.

At Hyakkaou Private Academy, your gambling skills are all that matters.

People flock to winners like moths to a flame,

while the losers get bullied.

I have to pay her back before the rankings get updated.

20 HR 36 MIN 24 SEC UNTIL UPDATE

There's no way I'm becoming a Kitty!

That being said, it wasn't always this bad.

Everything changed two years ago,

when the current president took over the Student Council.

President of the Student Council?

She became the president even though she was a first-year student.

A first-year student became the president?

How is that possible?

The thing is, she wasn't elected to office.

She gambled to get it.

She gambled with the former president

over the Student Council President position.

And she won.

After becoming the president, she implemented reforms.

She started the Donation Rankings and Doggy-Kitty System.

Ever since then, the way students treat each other has gotten worse.

Oh, I'm so sorry!

I didn't mean to overwhelm you right after you got here.

There are good things about this place, too.

I'm so glad that I transferred here!

-What? -The more I hear about this place,

-the more amazing it sounds to me! -What?

What kinds of games are popular nowadays?

-Jabami? -Original games like yesterday's?

-Jabami. -How do we collect our winnings?

-Listen to me. -Can we bet things other than money?

-Jabami! -Are grades

decided by gambling too?

-Yumeko! -Yes?

Gambling is bad! It's terrible!

Remember what happened to me? Once you lose, you're dead.

Avoid the Student Council no matter what. Every single one of them is a pro,

not to mention super creepy.

Gambling has ruined so many people's lives here.

Gambling is bad. Don't do it.

Hi, Jabami!

Nice to meet you! I'm Itsuki Sumeragi, a member of the Student Council.

The Student Council...

I'm Yumeko Jabami. It's a pleasure to meet you.

-Okay, time to go... -Jabami,

how about we have a match?

I knew it!

-Sorry! I'm afraid she has to check on... -That's music to my ears!

-What? -Yes!

That's so cute!

You're going to love how these cards feel.

-Go ahead, take them! -Are you sure?

-Thank you! -Itsuki Sumeragi.

She's at the top of the Donation Rankings. She got into the Student Council

as a first-year by making a huge donation.

So she bought her way in?

She's the daughter of a prominent toy company CEO.

She's filthy rich.

People are talking about you, you know!

I heard that on your first day here,

you completely destroyed Saotome.

She's also really good at gambling.

I heard she has never lost in a card game.

She has never lost?

Oh, my!

That sure is impressive!

Actually, there's a really scary rumor going around...

That fiery look in your eyes tells me everything about you.

You love gambling, don't you?

I only dabble a bit.

As for what we'll be playing,

how about Double Concentration?

Double Concentration?

Double Concentration?

-Suzui, have you heard of this game? -Never.

When you played against Saotome,

you bet 10 million yen, right?

Here are 20 chips issued by the Council. They're each worth one million yen.

My bet is 20 million yen!

Are you serious? Twenty million yen?

How about it? Do you want to double up?

Yumeko!

I'm afraid I don't have

twenty million yen at the moment.

Really? Okay, then I'll lend it to you.

And I won't charge interest!

That would be great! Thank you!

Then it's decided!

Yumeko Jabami,

who the hell are you?

NEXT EPISODE

Jabami! Are you sure you can handle Double Concentration?

Yes! I can even do triple, quadruple, or quintuple...

But there are 52 cards in a deck.

So if you double them, that would be 104, and...

Oh, man, I can't do the math anymore!

-Calm down, Suzui. -Suzui, you're so gross.

Hey, all the Meari fans out there, I'm about to become a Kitty!

Don't forget about me!

THIS IS A WORK OF FICTION
