Who says I can't become a Grand Master?

Chapter 75 The Deadpool Organization Has Its Eyes on Blind Boxes

It's probably because I was too excited.

The next day, when Zhang Qingzhe was preparing breakfast, his younger sister woke up on her own.

She staggered out of the room, her clothes disheveled, her tank top hanging loosely over her shoulders. She squatted on the sofa like a little duck and casually turned on the TV.

Zhang Qingzhe was frying eggs in the kitchen, trying to urge her to memorize some Latin in the morning.

Because the current "card magic" in Country C was only introduced from the West after the reform and opening up, it is very different from the ancient "old magic".

The Western "card magic" system is derived from alchemy and religious mythology.

Therefore, the magic circles and reaction equations on the cards still have to be written in Latin.

Therefore, Latin is still a compulsory subject.

As for Zhang Qingzhe himself, he's fortunate to have been a medical student in his previous life.

He had studied medical Latin, so there were no problems.

But before he could shout it out, he saw the news being broadcast on TV.

A reporter stands in a bustling commercial district, reporting that a card shop was robbed last night.

The theft gang was very strange; they neither stole money nor cards.

Instead, he sneaked into a blind box mall and opened all the high-end blind boxes.

This caused the shopping mall tens of millions in losses.

The reporter then added: "A fierce conflict broke out between the mall's security guards and the theft gang, making a mess of the entire commercial street."

Zhang Qingzhe stared blankly at the television—

In the background behind the reporter, there was a poster of a red-haired witch, which was clearly the "Lucky Goddess" blind box store he had visited.

Zhang Qingzhe frowned, sensing that this group had been prepared and was after those high-end blind boxes.

At the same time, he recalled the strange "prophetic school" card master he encountered when buying blind boxes.

The reporter then went on to say a lot of other things.

Finally, it was emphasized very seriously that there were rumors that this matter was related to the "Deadpool organization," but the city hall has officially refuted these rumors, stating that it was just an ordinary theft, and urging citizens not to believe them.

Zhang Qingzhe's brows furrowed even more.

He stroked his chin thoughtfully and muttered softly, "They've actually gone out of their way to debunk rumors. It seems..."

"Brother, are the eggs burnt?" the younger sister suddenly exclaimed.

Zhang Qingzhe rushed back to the kitchen, but it was too late to save it.

Afterwards, the brother and sister sat at the table, eating sandwiches without eggs.

"Brother, why do you look so distracted?" the younger sister suddenly asked.

"The shopping mall mentioned in the news is the place where I bought blind boxes yesterday."

The younger sister was also taken aback: "Brother, do you think those people are after... that [Necromancer] card?"

"The possibility is very high."

Zhang Qingzhe frowned.

His mind is a mess right now, and he can't quite make sense of it.

If he weren't worried about his mental health, he would have liked to use the [Bird Divination Cards] again to see who came from.

He took two deep breaths and slowly calmed down.

He thought for a moment, then earnestly instructed his younger sister:

"Don't tell anyone about us opening blind boxes."

"I understand." The younger sister nodded seriously.

"Also, eat quickly. I have to go see someone."

Zhang Qingzhe arrived at the school playground early.

This time, he wasn't in the mood for pull-ups.

He stood by the track for a while, and when he saw someone walking towards him in the sunlight, he quickly raised his hand and shouted:

"Senior! Over here, I have something important I'd like to discuss with you privately!"

Shen Nanzhi was stunned for a moment, then stood there blankly.

She really didn't expect that her junior would be waiting for her here.

Could it be that he became interested in me after hugging me yesterday?

But Shen Nanzhi quickly regained her senses.

After all, she's already halfway into the workforce; she wouldn't indulge in such girlish daydreams.

The rich girl who lent money to her junior last time has a better figure than me.

"Nanzhi, what are you daydreaming about? Are you shy?"

The group of girlfriends next to her burst into laughter and pushed Shen Nanzhi over in a flurry.

Seeing that Shen Nanzhi was moving a bit slowly, Zhang Qingzhe took the initiative to go up to her, took her hand, and walked to a secluded corner.

The group of girlfriends watched from afar and then erupted in a chorus of boos.

Shen Nanzhi lowered her head, looking at her toes, feeling her cheeks burning.

"Senior, did you watch the news today?" Zhang Qingzhe suddenly asked.

"News? What news?" Shen Nanzhi asked, somewhat bewildered.

Zhang Qingzhe took out his phone again and showed her a news article with pictures.

After reading it, Shen Nanzhi's face also showed some fear.

Zhang Qingzhe's tone regained its composure: "Senior, what's your opinion on this matter?"

Shen Nanzhi replied somewhat flusteredly, "I...I don't know."

Zhang Qingzhe nodded slightly and said, "Although I might be overthinking it, I feel that things might not be very safe for a while. Senior, could you please not go to work for the time being?"

Seeing how concerned her junior was, Shen Nanzhi had nothing more to say and obediently nodded, "Okay! I understand."

"Also, there's something else," Zhang Qingzhe lowered his voice, "I hope you can keep my bulk purchase of blind boxes a secret, senior."

"Don't worry." Shen Nanzhi looked up at him earnestly. "I'm not the kind of person who talks too much."

Zhang Qingzhe gave Shen Nanzhi a few more instructions, and then saw a figure come into view.

—Kang Ping actually came.

He was wearing a tracksuit for morning runs, and after greeting Shen Nanzhi's best friends, he naturally joined the group.

This guy was chatting and laughing with the female students, and he really did have the carefree look of a playboy.

Zhang Qingzhe gazed into the distance, and suddenly a question occurred to him:

"Professor Kangping...did you get any good cards yesterday?"

Shen Nanzhi's eyes lit up slightly at the mention of this.

"After you left, Professor Kangping opened a lot more blind boxes and actually got quite a few good cards. Then he bought a large batch of blind boxes to take home and gave red envelopes to all the sales assistants present."

"Oh." Zhang Qingzhe nodded. "So how much did he spend in total?"

"It probably cost over 300,000 yuan, which is more than what you, junior... spent."

Zhang Qingzhe's pupils contracted slightly.

A strange thought suddenly came to mind—this situation was very advantageous to me.

If the Deadpool organization really is after that Necromancer card, then...

So now, Kang Ping has become their biggest suspect.

***

As soon as Zhang Qingzhe returned to the classroom, Wang Dong eagerly came up to him.

"Bro, I've heard some news about Kang Ping! He seems to have won the grand prize in another blind box! How come this guy's luck is so weird?"
