Ke Jin arrived at "Starry Sky" at nightfall.
This commercial street is even more lively at night than during the day. This is the busiest time for each card pool. Eggers brought Ke Jin into the card pool through the small door in the backyard in a low-key manner, and almost no one noticed.
The courtyard of the card pool "Glory of the Galaxy" has been transformed by space-type supernatural cards. It looks small from the outside, but it is a different world inside. The supporting facilities are exquisite and complete. It is the best condition of all the card pools that Ke Jin has come into contact with so far. Even the huts where the card users live are beautifully shaped villas with everything you need. There are even fresh ingredients prepared in the refrigerator.
"This...this card pool is too good, right?"
After being shown around by Eggers, Ke Jin became more and more astonished. Before, Oloy had simply told him that he had found a temporary card pool and asked him to make do with it for the time being... How could this be called "making do"?
Ke Jin had no idea about the regional distribution of the imperial capital, but as he walked along just now, he could see that this area was a very prosperous commercial street and the rent must be expensive.
"Eggs," Ke Jin said tremblingly, "The rent here..."
"No rent." Before Ke Jin could finish his words, Eggers, who had already been warned by Oloy, interrupted him.
"This is our own property, you can use it as you like." Seeing that Ke Jin was about to speak, Eggers immediately added, "My cousin lived with you at the time, eating your food, drinking your drinks, using your things, and sleeping on your bed, and you didn't charge him rent."
Can the little card pool in Azure Star be compared to this VIP luxury villa! Also, can you please not add the word "sleep with you", it sounds so awkward...
Since Eggers still refused to discuss the rent, Ke Jin had no choice but to give up. It was getting late, so Eggers gave a few more instructions, made an appointment with Ke Jin to meet tomorrow, and then left.
Ke Jin put away his luggage, went to the bathroom to take a shower, dried his hair, and went to the kitchen to cook himself a bowl of noodles. After eating, he glanced at the time and saw that it was still early to go to bed, so he walked around the house and finally walked onto the balcony.
The villa has three floors in total, and outside the master bedroom on the top floor is a large open-air balcony. The Kachi courtyard is obviously also equipped with special cards that block sound and sight. Although it is in a busy city, standing on the balcony and looking at the street outside, no noisy sounds can be heard, and no one is looking over here.
The night breeze was cool, rustling the lush bushes in the courtyard. Looking up, the sky was full of stars, like tiny and bright diamonds, scattered in the deep black velvet night.
Ke Jin likes to look up at the stars at night. When he was in Qixing City, he would often move a recliner to the courtyard of Kachi after dinner, then lie on the recliner with his hands as pillows and look up at the night sky, and he would never get tired of looking at it.
But he is usually not alone. Ounuo... Oh no, now it should be said that Oloy, who is in childish state, always climbs onto the recliner and squeezes together with him while muttering "Why are you so boring". The two of them, big and small, lie close to each other, looking up at the beautiful and mysterious starry sky above their heads in the night breeze.
Thinking of what happened back then, Ke Jin couldn't help but smile. After Oloy returned to normal, they never lay together to watch the stars again. If he made such an invitation now, he would definitely refuse it, right? After all, it was really strange for two grown men to lie together to watch the stars...
Ke Jin sighed softly, deliberately ignoring the regret and loss that flashed through his heart. Sometimes he still missed the days of taking care of "Ounuo". That person had been with him since the first day he came into this world, and he always regarded "Ounuo" as his most important family member, and believed that this trust and the desire to take good care of each other would never change.
But things are unpredictable. Who would have thought that the little boy who used to look up to him would suddenly become a tall young man whom he needed to look up to? Although the two of them reconciled quickly after a brief conflict, they could no longer be as close as before. When Ke Jin thought of this, he felt like a ball of cotton was stuffed in his chest, and he felt very uncomfortable.
Ke Jin was stunned for a while. When he came to his senses, he found that he had the communicator in his hand and dialed Oloy's name.
During the days when Oloy was away, the two of them communicated through the communicator. They would also talk on the phone before going to bed every day. Their original intention was just to report safety to each other, but they could still talk for a long time every time - they were so familiar with each other, but they still had a lot to say. It was magical to think about it.
Ke Jin glanced at the time on the screen. It was not yet the agreed time for the call. He thought about it and sent a text message to Ouloi.
[I have arrived safely, everything is going well~]
Almost at the same time as this message was sent, a message popped up on Ke Jin's communicator.
[I heard from Eggers that you have arrived? ]
Unexpectedly, the other party had such a tacit understanding with him. Ke Jin couldn't help laughing. He pressed the name with his fingertips and was about to request a call, but the other party had already initiated a call invitation.
I pressed the green connect button without any hesitation, and immediately a familiar voice came from the other end of the communicator.
"You remembered to send me a message now?" The clear voice sounded a little bit pleasant in the communicator, but the tone was a little depressed, like a small animal that was abandoned. "Aigs said you have been here for quite a while..."
Ke Jin could almost imagine Oloy glaring at him with a look of grievance on his face, and couldn't help but want to tease him.
"Aigus has informed you, do you still need to wait for my news?"
"Of course it is necessary!" Orloy said immediately, "Can you be the same as him?"
"Isn't it just to report safety?" Ke Jin asked with a smile, "Why are he and I different?"
"You..." Oloy stopped after saying one word. After a long silence, he spoke in a low voice as if he was disappointed.
"You...you don't understand at all."
"Well, I don't quite understand." Ke Jin said in a tone that he wanted to get to the bottom of it, "That's why I have to ask you."
There was no movement for a long time, probably because he was choked and had nothing to say. After getting to know Ouluo, Ke Jin found that although he seemed to have a bad temper, he was actually very simple. If he could see him now, he estimated that he would be blushing and wanting to say something but couldn't.
After a while, the person on the other end finally spoke.
"...How's the weather in the imperial capital today?"
Ke Jin almost exploded - this topic change was too abrupt!
Knowing that the joke had gone to this extent, Ke Jin stopped dwelling on the previous question and answered Ouloi's question with a smile. The two chatted for a while, during which time Ke Jin leaned against the balcony railing and looked up at the starry sky. Suddenly remembering his previous emotions and nostalgia, he blurted out what he had said subconsciously.
"Oloy, I haven't seen you for several days. I really missed you."
"Me too." The other end replied naturally, "I miss you very much, too."
The voice coming out of the receiver had a sentimental magnetism to it. Ke Jin's heart trembled inexplicably and he was unable to reply for a moment.
The conversation that had been going on for a long time suddenly stopped. Both of them suddenly stopped talking. In the silent silence, the atmosphere suddenly became subtle. Ke Jin opened his mouth several times, but could not make any sound.
Ke Jin didn't know what Oloy was thinking, but he didn't say anything. It wasn't because he had nothing to say, but because he felt that in such a subtle atmosphere, it would be redundant to say anything.
"I'll be back as soon as possible."
In the end, it was Oloy who broke the silence first. He seemed to be trying hard to keep his tone steady, but his obviously high pitch and slightly faster speaking speed showed that he was in a very good mood at the moment.
"If nothing unexpected happens, I'll be able to go back next Monday. Can you wait?"
"Hmm?" Still immersed in the previous atmosphere, Ke Jin was unable to react for a moment - was he acting like "I'm anxious and worried because I can't see you for a day"?
"…You have to wait even if you can't wait." The person on the other end continued to answer his own questions. It was the proud and confident tone that Ke Jin was familiar with. Because it was mixed with a bit of laughter, it actually sounded a bit like a spoiled child.
"You promised me that I can only draw the first card from your card pool. You are not allowed to go back on your word."
Ke Jin was stunned, and suddenly he felt a sense of loss in his heart that he didn't understand.
Oh, so you're talking about the first card draw...
"Why, you don't want to?" Not hearing the expected response, Oloy's voice suddenly became dangerous.
"No, no." Ke Jin said quickly, "I am willing. I am very willing! You are the exclusive transporter of my card pool."
What Ke Jin said was true. After all, he had opened quite a few card pools. Whenever Ke Jin showed his intention to find another fortune teller to draw the first card for a new card pool, Oloy's face would become extremely bad, and in the end he just let him draw them all.
As for the cost of the first card, Ke Jin asked carefully once, but Oului was very angry. Until now, Ke Jin still couldn't understand why he was angry. He could only continue to save money and pay off the 200 million he owed before. He would give the rest to Oului whenever he asked for it...
The two chatted for a while until it was time to go to bed, then they said good night to each other and ended the call.
After putting away the communicator, Ke Jin looked down at the quiet pond in the courtyard that had not yet been used. He couldn't help but think of the call just now and shook his head with a smile.
"Of course I'll wait for you. Is that even a question?" he whispered to himself.
"Besides you, who else have I looked for?"
***
Ke Jin originally thought that he would have a leisurely time before the pool opened for business, but he did not expect that he would be extremely busy the next day.
——Busy receiving visiting neighbors.
The mysterious card envoy who had been secretly speculated for more than a month finally showed up. Everyone went to visit him. They did not expect that he was so young, with a clean and sunny temperament, and did not look like a wealthy tycoon who would give away his wealth. After a brief conversation, they found that he was not a native resident of the Imperial Galaxy, but had migrated from the Federal Galaxy.
But no one would underestimate this seemingly gentle and friendly newcomer. Those who could enter "Glorious Galaxy" were all shrewd people who had fought their way through the siege. There were many examples of pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger. The more gentle and harmless Ke Jin looked, the louder the drums in everyone's hearts beat - he was so powerful and terrifying! So they became more respectful and friendly. When they learned that the other party was setting foot in the imperial capital for the first time, they enthusiastically introduced him to a transporter. The young card envoy was stunned for a moment, and soon laughed.
"Thank you, but I already have a choice."
This answer was not unexpected. After all, many card users have their own exclusive drivers, and the level of the driver they work with can be used to infer the level of the card user's connections, financial resources, and even background. So everyone waited eagerly, and then... nothing happened again.
The crowd has become numb: "…………"
Could it be that it will be delayed for another month...
The card users of "Glorious River" soon stopped paying attention to the young new card user because a few days later, a blockbuster news came out and instantly attracted everyone's attention. Not only were the card users of the imperial capital deeply shocked, but even ordinary people were talking about it and vying to eat melons.
——His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince of their Imperial Galaxy, the super European Emperor known as the "darling of the goddess of luck", suddenly announced that he would make the first draw for the Imperial Capital's card pool again after disappearing for two years!
