Three minutes later, Young Master Liu returned from outside while holding a wooden box that was slightly larger than his palm.
He handed the wooden box to Young Master Lin with an evil smile. 𝒇𝑟e𝙚𝑤𝙚𝐛𝗻𝐨ν𝚎𝘭.c𝐨m
“Little Lin, this is the treasure. Open it.”
“Oh?”
Young Master Lin was instantly alert when he saw his best friend’s behavior. He took the small wooden box but did not open it directly.
“Don’t tell me you placed fireworks or smoke bombs in there?”
He looked at Young Master Liu with a trace of doubt.
“How can that be! What’s our relationship? Why would I do such a thing? Don’t worry, it’s definitely something you like!”
Seeing Young Master Lin hesitate, Young Master Liu immediately patted his chest and guaranteed that he did not put anything deceptive in the box. It was indeed a treasure.
“Alright, I don’t think you dare to fool me…”
Seeing his best friend guarantee, Young Master Lin immediately felt relieved. He opened the wooden box.
After the wooden box was opened, as Young Master Liu had said, there was no farce of fireworks erupting, but Young Master Lin’s gaze quickly straightened.
He took out a small book from the wooden box and began to flip through it with his eyes wide open.
“Hehe, Little Lin, I understand you very well!” Young Master Liu smiled and said when he saw Young Master Lin’s reaction.
However, Young Master Lin did not respond to Young Master Liu’s teasing. He continued to flip through the small book, clearly engrossed.
“What are the two of you looking at?”
At this moment, Zhou Chen and Young Master Zhang’s conversation had reached the end. Young Master Zhang noticed that his two good friends seemed to be admiring something and immediately went over, afraid that he was missing out on something good.
However, when this Young Master Zhang stood up and looked at the booklet in Young Master Lin’s hand, a trace of embarrassment quickly appeared on his face.
“The two of you actually watch such a filthy thing in public. How disgraceful!” He seemed angry, but he couldn’t help but take a side glance at the small book.
“Little Zhang, stop pretending. Who doesn’t know that you go to the Intoxication Brothel the most religiously!” Young Master Liu teased when he saw Young Master Zhang’s expression.
‘What are these people looking at? Could it be…’ Zhou Chen, who was observing everyone’s reaction, immediately had some guesses. He stood up curiously and tilted his head to look at the booklet in Young Master Lin’s hand.
As soon as he took a look, Zhou Chen realized that he had guessed correctly. The small book was a collection of indescribably exquisite drawings!
‘These people are really bored.’
Zhou Chen shook his head slightly and returned to his seat to continue drinking and eating.
As a young man who had lived for two lifetimes, although this was the first time Zhou Chen had seen such a picture album, he had seen videos. As the saying goes, ‘Speak not of lakes and streams to one who has seen the ocean’; although the artwork was not bad, it could not shake his heart.
“Brother Li, why did you stop after taking a look? Do you think that this artwork is not good enough?” Young Master Liu was surprised by Zhou Chen’s calmness.
“Brother Liu, the artwork is quite good. It’s just that I’m focused on the way of the martial arts and am not too interested in such matters,” Zhou Chen immediately expressed that he was not interested.
“Hehe, Brother Li, to have such a mental state, no wonder you have such an extraordinary cultivation at a young age,” Young Master Liu praised. He could tell that Zhou Chen was really calm and not the fake calm of Young Master Zhang.
“Old Liu, this is only the first half, right? Where’s the second half? Quickly bring it over!”
At this moment, Young Master Lin, who was holding the picture album in his hand, had already finished browsing through all the pages. He realized that the album was incomplete.
“Little Lin, it’s not that I don’t want to show you, but there’s only the first half of this artwork. The other half hasn’t been drawn yet!” Young Master Liu immediately shook his head to indicate that this was impossible, because the second half of the picture album did not exist at the moment.
“Who’s that artist? I’ll go rush him when I’m free!” When Young Master Lin heard this, he asked about the artist with some fascination.
“This… might be a little difficult.” A complicated expression appeared on Young Master Liu’s face. “I heard that the artist of this book is a rapist near Gold River City. He has harmed many innocent women and has been reported to the Furnace Mountain Sword Sect to be dealt with. I think he’s hiding in some corner of Furnace Mountain right now!”
After hearing Young Master Liu’s explanation, they realized that the artist was not a proper person. He was a rapist.
“I see… Forget it if there is no next volume of this artwork. I hope this rapist is caught soon.” After knowing that the creator of this book was an evil person, Young Master Lin immediately expressed that even if he could not read the next volume, he wanted such a person to be brought to justice.
“Brother Liu, is this artist the rapist that was posted on the noticeboard today?” At this moment, Zhou Chen, who had been calm, lost his calm because he felt that a certain thought of his might have a chance of being realized. An opportunity had appeared!
“I saw the notice this morning, it should be him. Brother Li, why are you asking this? Are you trying to capture him for the bounty?” Young Master Liu guessed when he saw Zhou Chen suddenly ask this question.
“I suggest you give up on this idea. It is said that the rapist is a wanted felon in several cities. Every time something happens, he will hide in the mountains, and no one will be able to find him. Unless the limelight passes, he will not appear again.”
“I had such a thought, but it’s really not easy to find him if he hides in the mountains,” Zhou Chen immediately shook his head, indicating that he had given up on this idea.
However, in fact, Zhou Chen had already made up his mind to try and find this rapist. If the other party really was hiding in the mountains, he had a high chance of finding him.
Because Zhou Chen had the Beast King passive skill, all the animals in the mountain were his eyes and ears. It was much easier for him to find a person in the mountain than others.
‘I hope he really is hiding in the mountains. As long as I can find him and kill him, there’s a high chance that a drawing passive skill will drop.’ The reason why Zhou Chen wanted to find this rapist was not for any reward. He wanted to kill him to obtain a possible drawing passive skill.
Although Zhou Chen had only taken a glance at the artwork, he could tell that the level of the artist was quite high. The artworks had both form and spirit, and completely suited the requirements of the Card Creator.
‘I’ll investigate in a while and start on this. It’s difficult to get close to the core disciples of the Furnace Mountain Sword Sect. It will definitely be much easier to deal with a rapist, and it can also be considered as getting rid of evil for the people.’
Soon, a new plan formed in Zhou Chen’s heart.
