Duan Zihan's voice was very loud and could be heard clearly in the room. Immediately, Ke Jin and Ou Luoyi turned their eyes to Bai Fan.
"Your enemy?" Ke Jin asked cautiously.
The usually indifferent black-haired young man showed a rare look of fatigue and pushed the frameless glasses on his nose with his hand.
"It's okay, I'm just a psycho."
"How can a psychopath say nothing is happening?" Ke Jin said solemnly, "This is a big deal!" It is not illegal for a psychopath to kill people. Look at how aggressive that person is. If he really has a seizure and something bad happens, who will they go to for justice?
"I'll ask them to leave and not disturb your business here." Bai Fan said as he was about to go out, but was stopped by Ke Jin.
"Hey, do you know what they are here for?" Ke Jin said.
Bai Fan thought about it and shook his head: "I don't really know... Actually, they are my schoolmates. We had a little holiday when we were in school before, but I don't understand why they came all the way here."
In Bai Fan's mind, although Duan Zihan was an idiot, he didn't expect that the other party would be so stupid as to come all the way here just to deal with him, so he was quite confused now.
"Then don't go out yet." Ke Jin immediately dragged Bai Fan into the house, "I'll go out and ask clearly first."
"but……"
"It's nothing but but. It's working hours now. I'm your boss and I have the final say." After saying that, Ke Jin opened the door and went out.
***
Although Ke Jin has a good temper, he is not a coward, and his brain is not stupid. The other party is so aggressive, and Bai Fan's personality is not like the kind of person who can ease the situation gently. If the two sides meet now, they will definitely fight.
The people in the yard had already noticed that the small house in the northeast corner might be the only place with people. When they saw the door suddenly open, all eyes were immediately cast over there.
The expected person did not show up. Instead, a completely unfamiliar young man walked out of the door. He was quite good-looking, and his temperament seemed sunny and comfortable. He was completely different from Bai Fan.
While these people were looking at Ke Jin, Ke Jin was also observing them. Ke Jin found that in addition to their bright and strange clothes, some things about these people were also very strange. Because of the heavy rain last night, the ground in the courtyard was still very muddy, but these people's shoes did not seem to be stained with mud at all, as if there was an invisible force that isolated them from the surrounding environment, which was very magical.
Could it be that some kind of functional card was used?
Ke Jin, who gradually got to know this world full of card pools, made reasonable speculations.
Although functional cards are not as good as ability cards, some of them are also aggressive. He became slightly alert in his heart, but Ke Jin's expression remained calm and he smiled.
"I'm the card master here. Are you here to draw cards?"
It is said that you should not hit a smiling person. Although Duan Zihan had previously threatened to destroy the card pool here, the other party's attitude was so good that he couldn't deliberately make trouble, so he frowned.
"Bai Fan is on your side, right? Let him come out."
Ke Jin kept smiling: "Who are you? What do you want from him?"
"None of your business, get him out!"
Ke Jin shrugged: "He is helping me, but he doesn't come every day. If you want to see him, please go another day."
"Is he really working here?" Before Duan Zihan could say anything, someone in the group of friends and relatives behind him shouted in surprise, "Is this really a card pool in operation?"
The heavy rain last night had washed away the hand-painted posters that Ke Jin had hung at the door. Now the yard was deserted and the kiosk looked tattered and lifeless. In the eyes of outsiders, it didn't look like it was "open for business" at all.
"It is indeed open for business." Ke Jin has become more and more accustomed to the looks of "Are you kidding me?" He said openly, "This is the snack card pool. Do you want to draw a card? The probability of drawing a new card has been increased by 20% for a limited time."
There was an immediate burst of disapproving laughter from the crowd.
"We are only interested in card pools that can produce SSR cards. There is no need to promote low-end card pools like yours, right?" someone laughed.
"This is my first SSR card pool draw." Ke Jin was not embarrassed by everyone's contempt, and still explained in a good-tempered manner, "Although because it has just opened not long ago, the card pool is limited and I can't draw SSR cards for the time being, but if I'm lucky, there will be no problem drawing SSR cards."
The scene was silent for a moment.
Then there was an uproar, with more than a dozen people screaming at the same time so loud that it hurt Ke Jin's eardrums a little.
"What? SSR first draw?"
"It's fake, right? This is a crappy card pool? An SSR card pool?"
"There should be a limit to lying. Which transporter would come to such a shabby place? How can he draw an SSR?"
Someone had already noticed the golden card attached to the pillar of the card pool kiosk and took a quick step over to examine it.
"Hey, I actually got an SSR and put it here to show off. It looks pretty real... Holy shit, it's actually real?!"
Everyone immediately rushed over, and after asking Ke Jin's consent, they took down the first-draw card and passed it around to look at it.
Everyone present was a student of KTS Card Master Academy, and they had their own way of identifying cards. The touch, gloss, quality, and thickness of this card were perfect. If it was a fake card, it would have been too carefully made. And if someone really had the mind and ability to make fake cards, this courtyard wouldn't be in such a mess...
"Interesting." Everyone was amazed. It turned out that this remote little place was not so useless. This somewhat overturned their perception that "the distribution of the card pool would have a great impact on the probability of the first draw."
"Can we draw cards now?" A pink-haired girl with an extremely cute appearance and outfit suddenly raised her hand and asked Ke Jin.
"Ah?" Ke Jin was stunned for a moment, then reacted, "...of course."
The people around her were not surprised by the girl's sudden request to draw cards. After all, this girl was a well-known "collector" in her circle of friends. Not to mention Aquarius, she had already cleared out the SSR first draw card pools of several nearby planets. Others drew cards to use them, but she drew cards just to put them in the card pool to look good. She was hopeless.
“Hey, hey, hey!” Duan Zihan was left alone. Seeing that there were still people eager to try to draw cards, the veins on his forehead were about to pop out. “What are you doing! Have you forgotten why we are here?!”
No one paid any attention to him.
Everyone was very interested to know what kind of cards could be drawn from such a strange card pool, and all eyes were focused on the pink-haired girl who started to draw cards excitedly. As a result, she drew a crystal card and swiped it twice above the card pool. Suddenly, she cried softly and turned to her companions with a frustrated look on her face.
"It seems that the accounts here don't support interplanetary payments..." She said pitifully, her big eyes blinking as if she was about to cry, "Does anyone of you have cash on you?"
The power of being stared at by a cute girl's big watery eyes was undoubtedly enormous. Everyone immediately searched their pockets, and even Duan Zihan subconsciously took out his crystal card.
"Uh... I don't have one..."
"Neither have I..."
"Who still has the habit of carrying cash nowadays..."
"It's really annoying that there are still some that don't support cross-planetary online payments. How backward!"
Ke Jin had never encountered such a situation before. After all, this was his first time to receive an alien visitor. He was just about to ask if he could provide any other help when, among the groaning crowd, a dashing figure who always seemed calm and composed let out a hearty laugh, then raised his hand with a "swish", and a pure black crystal card was already in his fingertips.
"Hmph, you knew we were going to such a remote place. What were you doing when the spaceship stopped at Mosca?" She snorted coldly, raised her head slightly, and had a proud smile on her lips. Her proud posture was like a queen high above. "I still have to worry about you."
Ke Jin didn't quite understand the rules of these interplanetary payments, but it seemed that the black crystal card, which was very different from the usual types, should have different payment permissions, because after seeing the black card, everyone's eyes looking at this imposing queen became sparkling like crazy fans.
"You are worthy of being Sister Han!"
"Sister Han is really thoughtful!"
"Long live Sister Han!"
"Xiao Ai, catch it." The girl called "Sister Han" raised her hand, and the black crystal card that she threw out was instantly caught by the pink-haired girl.
"Thank you, Sister Han." Xiao Ai touched her lips lightly with the crystal card, blew a kiss to Sister Han with a smile, and then turned to the card pool impatiently and swiped the black card above the card pool.
As if a storm had suddenly arisen, the originally calm surface of the card pool instantly experienced strong fluctuations, and countless light spots emerged from the water like stars, and finally merged into a thick column of light that rushed out. In the bright column of light, dense shadows of cards emerged, and at a glance, there were definitely more than a few hundred cards.
Ke Jin was stunned. Suddenly he remembered something and immediately checked his savings card, which showed the real-time status of his income. Half of the money that the pink-haired girl had just drawn from the card pool had already been reflected on Ke Jin's card.
Five thousand star coins.
This means that the other party's actual expenditure is 10,000 star coins, which is a direct draw of 1,000.
One thousand draws...
One thousand draws!!! Really rich man!!
"Tsk, how come it's only a thousand draws?" A dissatisfied murmur suddenly came from the side, "Stingy guy."
Ke Jin turned around and found that Ou Nuo had come out of the house at some point and was standing with him watching the situation in the card pool.
"Isn't one thousand draws a lot?" Ke Jin trembled.
"Those who use those interstellar payment cards should at least start with 10,000, right?" The boy curled his lips in disdain, "Humph, they look like nouveau riche, but they are actually a bunch of country bumpkins, so stingy that they are so stingy even when drawing a card."
Ke Jin: “…”
You talk as if a little brat like you can get drawn easily!
Facing the densely packed cards in the beam of light, Xiao Ai snapped her fingers with ease, and a light curtain instantly appeared beside her. From a distance, it looked like a small door to the void. All the card phantoms seemed to be guided and flew into the door one after another. In the end, only two cards were left, floating above the card pool, quietly emitting a dazzling light.
——Those are two SSR cards.
