In order to pay the debt, he boards a ship called "Destiny" to attend a mysterious gambling party at the instigation of someone. Once he wins, his debts can be canceled. The game rule seems very simple. Participants shall take pokers marked with "rock, paper, and scissors" as props for seizing the star sign of the opponent. However, in the face of a group of desperate gamblers, any little flaw can be utilized in the game. Kaisi successively bumps into the principal of the casino, Anderson who hides a dagger behind his smiles, deadbeat magician Zhang Jingkun, friend Li Jun and the person with a scar on his face, who brings diamonds into the casino in private. Kaisi is almost overwhelmed by several traps and schemes as well as constant inversions. The cruel human nature reflected in the game is like the epitome of society. The gambling party is finally a scene of slaughter.
