Chapter 150 New Skills
The Water World incident was quickly resolved. However, the police, unsure if the perpetrators were hiding something, led the park staff to inspect all attractions. The others, meanwhile, took advantage of the opportunity to enjoy a hearty meal at the snack bar.
Shaved ice, ice cream, fried noodles, teppanyaki...all kinds of small stalls make people feel like they are in a beach market.
Dong Yexi even saw cold noodles here!
Then I definitely have to have a bowl.
"This cold noodle looks so appetizing." The key point is, it has ice chips in it! I've mastered the essence.
Dong Yexi took a sip of the soup first, and then his eyes lit up.
Sweet, sour, and icy, it was refreshing from head to toe. Even though the flavor had been tweaked, it was still delicious. He drank most of the soup straight away, and Hatori Yui, standing by, quickly stopped him from adding more broth, worried he might get an upset stomach.
This bowl of cold noodles was not only liked by Dong Yexi, but almost everyone tried it. However, the children were limited in the amount of food they could have, so five people had to share a large bowl.
Genta Kojima was still a little hungry, but the adults present refused to give him more food, so he had to switch to fried noodles.
It’s all noodles anyway, and fried noodles are delicious too!
After everyone had eaten at the snack street from beginning to end, the staff finally finished the inspection and the group started having fun again.
After a crazy day of fun, Hatori Shizueji fell asleep as soon as he got home. Higashino Hiroshi talked to Hatori Yuiichi for a while and then went back.
He had a lot of fun today.
In fact, ever since Hatori Yui confessed her true identity to him, the atmosphere between them had become strange. Hatori Yui would often show a guilty look and even obey his every word.
But Dong Yexi felt that blindly obeying the other party was not a good sign.
Relationships need to be adjusted, not tamed.
He would rather hope that his partner can wake him up and stop him when he makes mistakes, rather than sink into depravity with him.
So this afternoon, when Hatori Yui forcefully took away his cold noodles and refused to let him eat them, although he complained a few words, he felt happy in his heart.
He cares about me! He has me in his heart!
Perhaps it was Rum's death that unleashed the shackles hidden in Hatori's heart, making him realize that the members of the Black Organization were also ordinary people. Rum could be easily shot, so the organization was not invincible.
Dong Yexi rolled over on the bed for a few times, then opened the system interface.
After the crisis was resolved today, the system prompted him that he had ten lottery tickets.
During the previous trip to Shanghai, he gave first aid to an allergy patient on the plane and stopped a violent man in the amusement park, one ticket each; on the eve of his second uncle's wedding, Hatori Yui saved his second uncle and a staff member, so both were counted on him, two tickets; he subdued the ex-husband of the guest who attacked Eri's aunt, one ticket; he successfully gave Shizue a kidney transplant, one ticket; he prevented a gas explosion in the apartment, one ticket; he saved Shizue again in the college league, one ticket; he prevented a seminar from exploding, one ticket; and finally, he prevented today's explosion, one ticket.
The timeline this time was a bit long, and he had been busy recently and had no mood to pay attention to this, so he had accumulated ten photos without realizing it.
Since you have ten consecutive draws, just draw them.
Dong Yexi clicked [Draw] with ease, a flash of light appeared, and ten freshly drawn cards appeared.
Identity Card: [Lurker] (Must wear)
Tag cards: [Healing the World], [ENFJ], [ESFP]
Skill Cards: [Targeted Upgrade Card], [A Thread of Connection], [Likely a Mouth], [Empty Hands]
Appearance Cards: [Pitiable], [Tough Guy]
When Dong Yexi saw the ID card, he was completely stunned.
"Lurker"? Anyone who uses that term must be connected to the Black Organization, right? So... is he being brought into the organization?
He opened and closed his eyes repeatedly, but the three words "lurker" remained unchanged.
Well, not a dream.
He is going to act in "Insidious".
Are you going to play "The Disguiser" again?
My good mood vanished in an instant. After all, no one would be happy knowing that they might be taken to a criminal organization, right?
Dong Yexi temporarily suppressed his uneasiness and looked at other cards first.
[璇壶吉世] seems to overlap with the previous [的生活华托], but it is a label card, and this word is used to praise the doctor's moral character of curing diseases and saving lives, obviously not referring to technology.
Could it be that as long as he carries this label, others will be able to tell at a glance that he is a doctor?
The other two English label cards also surprised him. Is this talking about the sixteen personality types?
He pulled out his phone and did a quick search. There were a ton of explanations, but he felt the most important part was probably the definitions of these two personality types—"Hero" and "Performer." Putting them together, it turned out to be...
Could he surpass Conan and become the male lead?
The next second, Dong Yexi dismissed the idea. This describes his personality, not his character setting. Perhaps it was designed to enhance his social skills, transforming him from a "social expert" into a "social bully."
Among the skill cards, the [Targeted Upgrade Card] is used for an unexpected skill. "Skill Targeted Upgrade Card. Use this card to upgrade [Wonderful Writing] to [Magic Brush Ma Liang]."
Dong Yexi was quite shocked. "Ma Liang with the Magic Brush" is a fairy tale about a boy named Ma Liang who was given a magic brush by a fairy in his dream. Whatever he drew with the brush would come true.
The [Miaobi Shenghua] can only be used to draw flowers, and the flowers it draws are lifelike. So, wouldn't the [Ma Liang's Magic Brush] be like in fairy tales, where whatever you draw turns into something new?
Dong Yexi couldn't wait to use the upgrade card, then put on the [Magic Brush Ma Liang], took out a pen and started drawing.
Ten minutes later, a crooked vase appeared on Dong Yexi's desk.
This skill can really make things come true!
He tried various types and finally determined that only lifeless things could be transformed.
That's true. If he really could draw people alive, the "Birth Control Office" would have to worship him. By then, the national population would depend on him, and he would become the "Nuwa" of the new era!
However, this skill has a fatal flaw, that is, it will not control Higashino Xi's hands to draw beautiful flowers like [Miraculous Brushstrokes], but will only reproduce the content one-to-one according to his actual painting level.
And Higashino Hiroshi's painting skills...
As mentioned before, he's the abstract painter and the art world's fugitive Picasso's successor, so his desk is now filled with all sorts of oddities. While this doesn't affect others' judgment of their function, their unique shapes are enough to make them a highly sought-after item at a postmodern art exhibition.
Dong Yexi comforted himself: It doesn’t matter, the appearance is not important, as long as it can be used.
The other skills, [Loutai] and [Miraculous Hands], should be the original meaning of the words. The former is to convince others with reason, relying entirely on "persuasion"; the latter is to be possessed by a thief.
A somewhat odd skill is [Thread Tie]. This skill even comes with its own explanation: This skill allows you to bind one person to yourself. When the distance between them is within 10km, the two can quickly lock their positions. Only one person can be bound at a time, and the connection resets after four hours.
10km is 10,000 meters, which is quite a distance. It's roughly the straight-line distance from the Forbidden City to the Fourth Ring Road. Furthermore, this positioning method is definitely not blocked. Aside from choosing the binding target carefully to prevent the binding target from being nearby, there are no other issues.
As expected, the built-in commentary is extraordinary and seems to be more useful than other skills.
The last two descriptions of appearance are two completely opposite descriptions, and there is also a rare word that is mainly used to describe men.
Higashino put both on and read the commentary. "[I feel pity]" means "I feel pity for you, right?"; "[Iron Man]" means "Besides a will of steel, you also need a body of steel!"
Dong Yexi understood it immediately. [Iron Man] would definitely make him look like he had skin of steel and bones, so he could effortlessly cosplay the Eighteen Bronze Men of Shaolin Temple.
However, the description of "I feel pity for her" seems a bit sad.
All ten cards have been studied. Except for the required identity card, only one skill slot has been unlocked, and the other contents have not changed.
Dong Yexi put the [Liao Duan] on. If he could really convince others at any time, then wouldn't he need to perform the "lurking" trick?
But past experience told him that the ID card would definitely come true. Wanting to escape this disaster? That was impossible.
Dong Yexi sighed deeply and lay down on the bed with anxiety and confusion. He was afraid he would have nightmares again tonight.
The next morning, Dong Yexi appeared in the restaurant with panda eyes and a listless look.
"Huh? Didn't you sleep well last night?" The eldest brother took a sip of coffee and said casually, "Don't stay up late often just because you're young. It's not good for your health."
Dong Yexi picked up a small piece of bread with a dazed look on his face and ate it like a sleepwalker.
The eldest brother turned to look at him and said worriedly, "Are you so sleepy? Go back to sleep later?"
Dong Yexi shook his head mechanically.
He had indeed had a nightmare that night. And he had a premonition that he would dream about that group of people again if he slept again. Now the Black Organization was like a knife hanging around his neck. Perhaps only when those people came to him would he feel at ease.
Dong Yexi rubbed his face and said, "I'm fine, I just played too late." He smiled at his elder brother and said, "You should stay up late while you are young. When you get older, you won't have the energy to stay up late."
The eldest brother looked up at him.
Dong Yexi immediately explained: "I'm not referring to you! Big brother looks the same age as me. No, I should say he looks more energetic than me."
The eldest brother smiled slightly: "Okay, don't explain. It's not like I can't accept my age. Besides, I don't feel old."
"Of course not! Big brother is still young!" Dong Ye Xi said righteously.
"But seriously, big brother, how do you manage to be so busy every day and still be so energetic?" Dong Yexi asked curiously.
As long as he got up early, he would find his elder brother already dressed and sitting at the dining table, with no trace of sleepiness on his face. Now that he was sitting at the same table with his elder brother, it was he who looked even more out of spirits.
"If you go to bed early and get up early and have a regular life, your body will get enough rest no matter how busy you are during the day." The eldest brother taught him a lesson secretly.
Dong Yexi immediately shook his head: "It's impossible not to stay up late, and it's impossible to get up early!" He didn't have to go to work, so why should he get up early? There would be many more days when he would have to get up early in the future, so he had to make the most of the time to sleep now.
Speaking of which, has he not been to school for a long time again?
Hmm...it's okay. He had just invited Professor Yasuda to attend the seminar, so he could hold out for a while.
As a result, Dong Yexi felt more at ease and decided to continue living at home.
