Simon simply nodded as Kurumi spoke about what was to happen to show he understood. His face was calm and neutral as she started to flip over the cards, the faces of them showing up in random order, though his eyes glanced between them and the girl handling them.
Kurumi continued to flip over cards, glancing up every once in a while at Simon just out of habit and not with the intention of taking any changes in body language as a clue to whether or not his card had been flipped over. Nope, there was a different hint she needed.
...king of spades...seven of hearts...jack of hearts...two of clubs...9 of clubs...
Kurumi bit her lower lip and flipped over the next card.
...3 of diamonds...
Focussing a bit more, Kurumi continued to flip over card, about five or six more, before she stopped and her hand rested on the deck of cards in her hand.
"
How much to do bet that the next card I turn over it yours?" she giggled as she used the exact same words that her brother had every time he performed this trick.
