Card Master: My Special Feature - Choose One of Three
Chapter 118 Buying and Selling
"I can't contact him. Our communication has always been one-way," Zhang Ni said, seeing the obvious disbelief in Yin Changfeng's expression. She smiled bitterly, her eyes revealing exhaustion.
"It's alright to tell you," Zhang Ni summoned her card [Divination Crystal Ball], the gold coin pattern on the card twisted into a large lock.
"I made a deal with the ignorant Chai Wanguan," Zhang Ni tried to activate the card, and the gold coin patterns on the card locked, cutting off Zhang Ni's spiritual energy.
"Even if I wanted to make an exception and help you, there's no way. Chai Wanguan's card is [Balance of Trade]. If I sell him the right to use the card, he won't allow me to not even be able to activate it."
"All these years..." Yin Changfeng hesitated, his gaze towards Zhang Ni complicated.
Zhang Ni felt a pang of sympathy; her long, wine-red hair clung to her forehead, adorned with a pine-green stone woven ribbon.
"After you left, my luck became incredibly bad. I lost nine out of ten times I gambled, and as I kept losing," Zhang Ni's tone became somewhat unsteady.
"You sold yourself out as you kept losing?" Yin Changfeng sneered.
"Sell? This isn't selling! This is cooperation." Zhang Ni's chest heaved violently. "He balanced my accounts, I have a fixed salary every month, and I can even do some card counting on the side. How can this be called selling?"
"A guaranteed job just fell into my lap; I'm not losing out in this deal."
Zhang Ni's cards are imprisoned by the hidden patterns of gold coins, making it impossible to find the White Bone Box with her help.
Unfortunately, she still had one chance to use her card.
It's like putting a carrot in front of a donkey's eyes, showing it but not letting it eat it.
Yin Changfeng scratched his head anxiously, "Is there any way to find Chai Wanguan?"
These people, Wuming, are all elusive and rarely seen.
If Zhang Ni hadn't mentioned it, even the Special Operations Bureau wouldn't have known that there was a member named "Chai Wanguan" in Wuming, let alone found him.
"Could you summon your cards again so I can see them?" Bai Miao walked to the divination table, and Zhang Ni's gaze fell on Bai Miao.
A man with such a clean and pure demeanor seemed completely out of place in this dimly lit tent and in the entire Blackwater Workshop.
"Your new friend?" Zhang Ni asked Yin Changfeng for confirmation.
"Bai Miao, captain of the sixth team of the field operations department." After Yin Changfeng finished introducing him, Zhang Ni said coolly with a sarcastic tone:
"Look at you, you're not doing so well either. Others are young and already team leaders."
She summoned a card and handed it to Bai Miao, then cupped her arms around a patch of snow-white skin, adjusted her face to the most beautiful angle, and winked at Bai Miao.
She did this not out of seduction, but because she hoped to form a good relationship with Bai Miao.
Lu Dantong's eyes darkened, and Zhang Ni felt a chill run down her spine.
Bai Miao accepted Zhang Ni's card with a calm expression and a composed look in his eyes. The beauty of Su Xue and Zhang Ni did not leave a ripple in his heart.
Yin Changfeng sneered, and Zhang Ni reluctantly gathered her knitted sweater together.
Bai Miao activated [Shared Vision], and dark gold threads extended from the card in all directions. He selected the thickest and most intricate threads and tried to sense the objects connected to the other end of the threads.
Cha-cha-cha—
A toy monkey swayed its body from one corner of the tent to the center.
The little monkey clapped away with its chopsticks, making a loud thud that broke the tranquility of the tent in a way that was hard for anyone to ignore.
The little monkey, with a letter in its mouth, slowly walked to Zhang Ni's side.
Zhang Ni pulled out the letter, glanced at it, and said with a strange expression, "This is unbelievable! Chai Wanguan actually gave you the last use right of this year."
An organization like Wuming, with unfathomable strength and influence spanning the entire Shenzhou Alliance, has no need to give face to the Special Operations Department.
The gold coin pattern on the card was deciphered, and Zhang Ni beckoned with her finger, causing the card to fly from Bai Miao's hand back to Zhang Ni's.
"Tell me what it looks like, what are you looking for?" Zhang Ni's demeanor at this moment was completely different from when she was seriously trying to fool customers or reminiscing with Yin Changfeng in a dejected manner.
He Changlin handed over the blueprints of the White Bone Box, which he had drawn based on the memories of Bai Miao and others, to Zhang Ni.
The moment Zhang Ni saw the blueprints, she felt a tightness in her chest. She subconsciously sensed that the white bone box depicted in the blueprints was something extraordinary.
"This thing is no ordinary item. I don't know if I can find it, after all—"
Zhang Ni shrugged helplessly, "I'm just a second-tier card master. I might not be able to find things of a higher tier."
She activated the card [Divination Crystal Ball], and a crystal ball floated in front of Zhang Ni. This crystal ball was different from the murky crystal ball that Zhang Ni used to scare people.
It is dazzling and sparkling, as if it contains a vast starry sea.
Zhang Ni placed the soles of her feet together, clasped her hands together, and floated up with the divination crystal ball.
She muttered to herself, and the drawings on the table were whipped up by the wind and danced wildly inside the tent.
Zhang Ni opened her eyes, which had no pupils but only whites. Countless images inside the crystal ball kept changing.
She was bleeding from all seven orifices and her body was trembling violently.
Zhang Ni suddenly opened her mouth, and foul-smelling black water gushed out.
No one knows where all that black liquid came from in Zhang Ni's stomach.
She continued vomiting until she was completely exhausted and collapsed into a chair.
Her shoulders were hunched high, her arms were suspended by an unknown force, and her fingertips drew random patterns on the card table, leaving blood-stained marks.
Bai Miao held up the screen without breaking it, isolating the black water.
Zhang Ni slammed her head on the table with a bang. After a period of silence, she shook her head and raised it, her pupils returning to normal.
"Ouch—what happened? Why does it hurt so much?" Zhang Ni wiped her cheek with her hand and saw that her hand was covered in blood.
After the pain subsided, she realized the nauseating taste in her mouth and couldn't help but gag.
After finally vomiting everything out of her stomach, Zhang Ni finally felt better.
Zhang Ni hastily brushed aside the hair blocking her face and looked at the crowd who were silenced by her frenzied appearance.
She pointed to the bloodstains on the divination table in front of her and said somewhat apologetically:
"Don't be nervous. Today's scale is a bit large, but it's all normal."
Yin Changfeng pinched his nose and kept his distance. Zhang Ni waved to him, "Come on, don't you want to know where the White Bone Box is?"
Bai Miao leaned closer to look at the scene drawn in blood on the divination table, but couldn't figure out where it was for a long time.
The sunken, spiral-shaped staircase leads to a square area in the very center.
The ground was covered in layers of blood, wet and then dried, congealing into a black color.
He Changlin and the others in the sixth team didn't know where this place was either.
Jiao Beiyao raised an eyebrow; this kind of strategy is applicable to the entire league.
Life in Yujiang City is finally going to get interesting.
Bai Miao took out his phone, took a picture, and sent it to his colleagues in the intelligence department.
At this moment, Yin Changfeng, who was holding his nose, walked forward and saw the image on the divination table. He blurted out, "Black House."
"Oh, you know this place well, after all, you've lived there for over a decade, haven't you?"
Yin Changfeng's expression was gloating, while Zhang Ni said with schadenfreude:
"Oh right, I almost forgot, you were almost skinned alive trying to get out of there."
