After seeing the emotion color, they all turned pink.

In the bustling night market, the crowd around the magic stall was surprisingly quiet.

Xu Wanxing pursed her lips, her eyes flickering, and nervously watched the magician on stage.

Xu Chuan remained silent, his gaze fixed on the chubby boy's hand.

From beginning to end, only now, is the magician touching this deck of cards with his perfectly clean hands.

Xu Chuan had seen it when he drew the cards.

The card values ​​for the entire hand are normal.

It's not the kind of deck of cards where you have a stack of 7s of diamonds and the first card you randomly draw is always a 7 of diamonds.

So this chubby magician only has one chance to make a move now.

If I were to call a halt now, Little Fatty would probably have already anticipated it.

After all, this is the only chance to make a move, so he might have been prepared.

Or perhaps he was actually making a desperate gamble, acting against his own psychology, with no backup plan, and winning by quickly getting through those few seconds.

These few seconds may be the last chance.

However, in either case, Xu Chuan was not prepared to call a halt.

Since the little stars in the audience seem to believe in these things, let's have Little Fatty bring out this connection...

If you can't get out, that's when I'll fucking mess with you!

"I think... I sensed a connection between them."

After saying that, the chubby boy smiled.

He straightened up, held the first card of the deck between his palms, and slowly lifted it up.

The purple tension emanating from him gradually faded after he finished speaking.

ended.

【Square 7】

From the moment the cards were drawn to the moment they were shuffled, the deck remained untouched.

Then the magician simply touched it; he didn't even move a finger.

But Shui Lingling still managed to turn the card that Xu Chuan drew and Xu Wanxing shuffled into the first card...

He really did it.

The audience erupted in applause and cheers, but some people left, saying things like, "This must be a plant..."

Xu Wanxing opened her eyes wide and happily tiptoed along with everyone else. Looking into her watery eyes, it seemed as if she was excited and about to cry again.

It really is the first one.

She shuffled the cards so vigorously and so messily, yet Xu Chuan still managed to get the first card he drew...

Does that prove...?

Her connection with Xu Chuan was so strong that it couldn't be washed away no matter how hard she tried!

"How is it?"

The chubby boy smiled and looked at Xu Chuan, raising an eyebrow.

Afraid that Xu Chuan might miss it due to the cheers, he repeated, "How was it?"

"Awesome, awesome." Xu Chuan gave him a thumbs up.

"S-ha-"

Little Fatty felt incredibly refreshed, as if he had inhaled something intoxicating; pale blue and green hues reappeared and gradually filled his entire body.

Xu Chuan stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder.

"Thank you."

"Haha..." Little Fatty chuckled, glanced at the happy and excited Xu Wanxing in the audience, and said to Xu Chuan, "It's okay, magic is meant to make everyone happy!"

It was at this moment that Xu Chuan absorbed a trace of green from him, tasted it, and understood the meaning of green emotions.

Green: confidence, pride, self-esteem...

"Huh? You must be able to do magic tricks too, right? Show me your secret technique. If I don't expose you, you've passed the second test, and I'll treat you and your partner to milk tea."

At this moment, Little Fatty was bursting with competitive spirit. He felt that his magic trick had just defeated Xu Chuan, who was also a magician.

He was now in high spirits and wanted to challenge Xu Chuan's magic tricks.

"Are you sure?" Xu Chuan smiled. "You definitely can't break my magic trick."

"Huh?"

Little Fatty was delighted. He pulled Xu Chuan back to the front of the table, specially dismantled a new deck of cards for him, and handed it to him.

"Come on! What kind of magic trick do you want to perform? Cards, coins, dice, I have them all here!"

"Really coming? Then you have to agree to one condition."

"What are the conditions?"

"If you can't break my magic trick, then you have to tell me how you did it," Xu Chuan asked with a smile.

"what?"

Little Fatty grinned. "What magic trick? That's fate between you two. She was the one who shuffled those cards. You should go down and ask your girlfriend."

"I don't really believe in things like fate."

Xu Chuan shook his head. "It's fine if you don't want to talk about it. After all, you really can't break my magic trick."

"..."

Little Fatty suddenly looked conflicted.

I'm a bit conflicted... After all, this is an original magic trick he designed himself, and he doesn't want to teach it to anyone, especially not his peers...

Wait, why would I think I'll lose?

It was just that his magic trick was exposed. This young man is not very old. Even if he is a fellow magician, how much skill can he possibly have?

I won the last game, and I can win the next one too!

"Okay, but young man, don't be angry if I break your magic trick. There are a lot of people here, and I came here to toughen up my nerves."

"Okay, I'll begin then."

Xu Chuan nodded and switched places with Little Fatty.

He stood opposite the booth, facing the chubby boy and the audience below, and of course, the bright, sparkling eyes of the little star.

It was at this moment that he understood what the chubby magician meant by "training a strong heart."

He took the deck of cards that Little Fatty had just opened, and without even washing it, handed it directly to Little Fatty.

"You draw one."

Little Fatty glanced at the cards, then picked one from the corner. After looking at it carefully, he showed it to the audience behind him before inserting it into the deck and handing it to Xu Chuan.

"No need to give it to me, give this deck to my girlfriend... to my boyfriend, and let her shuffle it, do you dare?" Xu Chuan said with a smile.

"Oh? Yes, yes."

Little Fatty chuckled, then turned around and handed the cards to Xu Wanxing to shuffle.

While Xu Wanxing was shuffling the cards in silence, Xiao Pang kept staring at the girl's shuffling technique.

Clumsy, rushed, lacking subtlety...

They're probably not magic partners.

After taking the cards that Xu Wanxing had shuffled again, he turned around, placed the cards on the table, and looked at Xu Chuan.

"Okay, what's next? Let's make this clear first, I'm just a spectator, not the Magician. I didn't switch your cards."

"I know you didn't steal it."

Xu Chuan observed the outline of the little fat man's emotions across from him, but there was no change in his expression.

Xu Chuan picked up the deck of cards that Xu Wanxing had shuffled, turned it over, and then spread it out on the table in a fan shape.

A touch of purple, a confused purple, was squeezed out from the outline of Little Fatty's emotions.

"I studied psychology a while ago and accidentally learned mind reading. Do you believe me?" Xu Chuan said with a smile.

"Hahaha, I don't believe it!" Little Fatty laughed too.

"Okay, I've only flipped this hand once from beginning to end. Now, I'll pick out the card you're thinking of."

Xiao Pang instantly held his breath, composed himself, and lowered his eyes to look at the fan-shaped cards with Xu Chuan.

Psychology is indeed used in magic, and in order not to give Xu Chuan any opportunity, he kept a tight face.

Xu Chuan extended his index finger and slowly stroked each card from left to right, then stopped at the 2 of Spades.

Little Fatty remained expressionless.

This kid is such a master of composure; the purple undertones in his emotional expression are practically bursting out, yet his face remains so taut.

In order not to shatter his Dao heart, Xu Chuan's finger continued to move, reaching the far right end, and then returning.

One after another, I almost turned Little Fatty into an emotional purple rheostat...

"I read it."

Xu Chuan pressed the two of spades with his index finger, pulled it out, and held it up.

"Huh? Huh? Huh?"

"no……"

"They're gone, they're gone! Those three aren't shills, I'll eat five pounds!"

"..."

Unlike Little Fatty's magic trick, Xu Chuan's "magic trick" didn't have any pre-show warm-up, and it was also a bit too outrageous.

What Little Fatty did was outrageous enough, but what Xu Chuan did was even more ridiculous...

What the hell is this if not a shill?!

The crowd that had been surrounding the stall suddenly dispersed in large numbers.

They all went to watch other performances on the old cultural street. Xu Wanxing pursed her lips, frowned, and watched the dispersing audience.

She seemed a little unhappy with the audience members who said Xu Chuan on stage was a plant, but she was too cowardly to confront them directly, so she could only secretly attack them with her eyes...

The chubby boy on stage paid no attention to the audience who were leaving. He kept his eyes down, staring at the stage with his eyebrows almost furrowed.

The place card? Wait, he didn't see it...

Did the girl give him a hint? No, and her shuffling technique was extremely crude; it would have been nearly impossible to find the 2 of spades while shuffling.

Could it be that she's faking it, or does she really have some skill? Skills even more advanced than mine?

Little Fatty took the drawn 2 of spades and examined it closely, but there were no markings on it...

Besides, these are my cards!

Could it be that girl? She rubbed the cards a few times, both with her hands, could it be a signal?

No, she's in the audience. This young man is standing on the stage, and it's so chaotic down there. Besides, I just stretched and deliberately blocked my view by the stage...

The problem must lie with that girl.

After all, this young man didn't do anything; he just pulled it out.

Moreover, he definitely doesn't have superpowers!

Because, to avoid such a special situation, I just mentally thought of several other cards. If he could read minds, he would definitely choose randomly...

Don't ask me why I'm so naive or why I don't believe in science.

Every magician dreams that magic exists in this world!

"How did you do that..." Little Fatty's voice was blank.

"Didn't I tell you before? I can read minds," Xu Chuan said truthfully.

Little Fatty shook his head, raised his head with a dazed look, stared intently into Xu Chuan's eyes, and asked.

"Did she help you?" The chubby boy turned his back and pointed to Xu Wanxing behind him.

"Yes, she helped me shuffle the cards."

"I mean, the kind of help, bro, just tell me the truth, just one sentence: did she help you with anything?" Little Fatty's eyes were earnest.

"No, and I'm telling the truth."

"Phew... I'll teach you the magic trick I just did."

But, can you teach me how you transform into this?

And your magic trick, with its simplicity and effortless mastery…”

Little Fatty let out a long sigh, and when he looked at Xu Chuan again, his eyes were serious and his tone was solemn as he continued to speak.

"I want to become your disciple..."
