87: So awesome!
"What surprise?"
"Hehe, you'll know when the time comes."
Jiang Kexin smiled, casually dropping the pistol in her hand.
The coach beside her was startled.
This girl, not only was she not afraid of damaging the pistol, but she also wasn't afraid of it misfiring!
The coach quickly slid forward, steadily catching the gun Jiang Kexin had dropped.
However, when he looked up, huh? Why was the safety on?
"It's too boring in the country. Want to go for a knife run?"
Jiang Kexin said, intending to leave the shooting club.
"Yes, we must go! Let me call for an escort! We'll go assault Dam No. 0!"
Li Wenzhe said very flatteringly.
But thinking about Lu Xueqing not getting the recommendation qualification, he looked a bit dejected.
"Sigh, it's just a pity..."
"Pity about what?"
"It's just a pity that Lu Xueqing's recommendation spot is gone."
Hearing that name, Jiang Kexin immediately recalled.
Indeed, she had seen a beautiful woman standing next to Xiao Yun on the sports field this morning.
And among them, the woman with slightly curly hair and a somewhat fashionable dress was actually no less beautiful than herself.
But she seemed to be very close to Xiao Yun.
Could she be the Lu Xueqing that her brother liked?
"If she can't get into Qingbei, why don't you just go with her?"
Jiang Kexin said indifferently.
"Hmm?"
Li Wenzhe was a bit confused by her words, and it took him a while to react.
"That's right! Sister, you're so smart! The worst that can happen is I don't take the recommendation spot!"
Li Wenzhe's tone was excited, as if he was ecstatic like Copernicus discovering a new continent.
"When the time comes, I'll see which school she gets into, and I'll find a way to go to that school with her! After all, with a 670,000 withdrawal and my family's connections, it shouldn't be difficult to get into any school other than Qingbei..."
Looking at the extremely excited Li Wenzhe, Jiang Kexin's smile widened.
This Li Wenzhe really was a top-grade idiot.
He spent so much effort to get that recommendation spot, yet he was willing to give it up for a woman.
However, he probably wouldn't have that chance.
"Let's go, let's have some fun at Dam No. 0."
Jiang Kexin took a lollipop from her pocket, tore open the wrapper, and put it in her mouth.
"Coincidentally, Xiao Yun and them should be there too."
......
"By the way, Shihan."
In the rest area of Eight Warehouse.
As soon as Xiao Yun spoke, Liu Shihhan, who was drinking an iced Americano, suddenly choked.
"Cough, cough, cough... Xiao Yun, why are you calling me Shihan too?"
"Sorry, I got used to hearing Lu Xueqing call you that..."
"It's fine, this young lady allows you to call me that from now on!"
Liu Shihhan's face turned red, and she quickly turned her head away.
Seeing this, Xiao Yun was a bit speechless.
It was as if he wanted to call her that!
"Liu Shihhan, do you know where I can buy a military telescope?"
"Call me Shihan!"
"Stop messing around! I'm asking you something serious!"
Xiao Yun was so anxious he wanted to spill her coffee.
He was asking her something serious, and she was going on about Shihan or not Shihan.
"military telescope... Is it that big gold worth 100,000?"
Xiao Yun nodded.
After clearing a wave of supplies, his bank card balance had already exceeded 9 million.
And the upgrade materials for the family heirloom knife would probably not be available in the Exchange.
At least, not in the Exchange here at Eight Warehouse.
As for whether the Exchanges in big cities sold them, Xiao Yun didn't know.
"For something so rare, the black market should have it, right?"
Liu Shihhan thought for a moment, then replied.
"The black market is on the Ocean Spectrum ship we went to before. What, do you want to go?"
"That kind of place, won't it be dangerous?"
Xiao Yun said with some concern.
"What are you thinking! This isn't Lighthouse Country."
Liu Shihhan found it a bit amusing.
This Xiao Yun, did he really think the black market was an illegal zone?
"Although it's called the black market, everyone still follows the rules. They're all honest businessmen."
"Really?"
"Hmm... At most, they'll sell you something worth 10,000 for 80,000, just rip you off a little."
"That's honest?"
Xiao Yun's eyelid twitched.
This Miss Liu seemed to have some misunderstanding about honest people!
"Are you going or not?"
"Let's go, just in time to buy some things."
Xiao Yun said, preparing to set off.
Since the black market was quite safe, his only concern was gone.
When the time came, he would upgrade the family heirloom knife and then see how much money was left.
If he had a lot left, he would consider buying SS-rank skills.
After all, he still lacked means of acquiring supplies.
If he kept withdrawing without consecutive losses, he wouldn't be able to open bounty chests.
Xiao Yun had to ensure that in normal matches, he also had the ability to obtain big gold or even big red.
"Master..."
And just as the group was about to set off.
Lu Xueqing, however, was holding her coffee cup with both hands, her tone a bit hesitant.
"What's wrong?"
Xiao Yun asked, puzzled.
"I might have to go back and study hard now."
Lu Xueqing said with some regret.
When she said that, Xiao Yun suddenly remembered that she still had to prepare for the college entrance exam.
"Hmm, good luck, I believe you can do it."
"Mhm!"
......
Xiao Yun and Liu Shihhan took a boat to the Ocean Spectrum.
It was divided into three floors: the living area on the basement floor, the restricted area entrance on the first floor, and the most crucial black market on the second floor.
Xiao Yun arrived at the black market entrance, but found that it was completely different from what he had imagined.
How to put it? When talking about the black market, the impression should be a very secret, very dark place.
However, the second floor of the Ocean Spectrum in front of him was crowded with vendors of all sizes, most of whom just spread out a mat and set up a stall on the ground.
"This..."
"What's wrong? Does it not meet your expectations? But that's how the black market is."
Liu Shihhan smiled faintly.
"Alright, this place does look very safe. Shihan, help me look for a military telescope. Call me if you find one."
"Received!"
Liu Shihhan was inexplicably excited, skipping towards the stalls.
Xiao Yun also chose the opposite direction, scanning the goods on the stalls along the way.
He saw that the things in the black market were richer than he had imagined.
Here, there were not only supplies and equipment from the restricted area, but also some goods produced in reality that he had never seen before.
And the most common category was crystals or jade stones that claimed to bring good luck.
These things were expensive, yet many people came to inquire about their prices.
Xiao Yun was helpless, he didn't expect that superstition, this thing, would have an even bigger market in this world where everyone was running knives.
"Boss, what is this?"
Xiao Yun saw a uniquely shaped ornament.
It was a lucky cat, but its arm was as thick and huge as Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson's.
"This is an ornament that brings good luck. With it, you will have continuous good luck! Every run in the restricted area will yield loot!"
The boss was promoting it, making Xiao Yun a bit tempted.
Continuous good luck, wouldn't that mean big red every time!
No, hold on, I must hold on!
This is all fake, this is all a lie!
"Young man, buy one. With it, every time you enter the restricted area, you'll get purple items!"
Seeing that the customer was a bit hesitant, the shop owner pressed on.
"Alright, I'm not buying it."
And when Xiao Yun heard this, he turned and left.
What a load of bull!
Getting purple every time, what's the use of that!
He got gold every time and still felt the drop rate was low.
If it weren't for the boss's last sentence, Xiao Yun would have almost believed his nonsense!
"Hey, hey! Are you really not going to consider it!"
The boss was instantly confused. Why did this young man suddenly turn and leave so decisively?
Did he exaggerate too much?
"Damn it! I should have said blue every time!"
The boss immediately regretted it.
