Chapter 419 - Lucky draw, X-ray vision eye drops! (2/2)

When he came out, Zhang Ye went back to his bed and sat down. He stretched himself and was in high spirits. He definitely felt much better than yesterday. He was feeling totally refreshed today. This was all thanks to the landlord auntie's overnight care for him. If he had been alone, who knew how long he would have been sick for?

He had recovered from his illness.

What should he do now?

Go home? That was out of question since his wounds had not heal. If his parents saw him like this, they would definitely be worried.

Work? That wasn’t possible either. It was the first day of the new year, what work would there even be? The talk show had already finished recording. The school was on winter break. He was not needed in the marketing of Brain Platinum for the time being. Oh, right. There was still Zhang Yuanqi's ”Woman Flower” single's copyright left to settle.

Ding Dong.

The doorbell rang.

Zhang Ye went to open the door and found a courier standing there.

”h.e.l.lo. I'm from the courier company. Please acknowledge by signing here.” Saying that, the youth was suddenly taken aback, ”Aiyo, you....you're Teacher Zhang Ye?”

Zhang Ye signed off on the acknowledgment, ”Please wait for a while, I'll take a look at it first.”

The courier was very polite, ”It's fine, please check it carefully. It's OK if you want to be thorough. I can wait.”

Zhang Ye looked through the doc.u.ments, which was the contract from Zhang Yuanqi's company. He browsed through it casually before signing on it. He fully trusted Zhang Yuanqi on such matters, knowing that she would not take advantage of him. He said to the courier, ”I'd have to trouble you to bring this back to the sender.”

”Sure, please fill up another form then.” The courier said.

After the paperwork was completed, the courier asked Zhang Ye for an autograph before leaving.

All his work matters had been settled now. It looked like he could only rest for the first few days of the new year.

Oh, it would be so boring.

Having been so used to being busy, he couldn't really get used to being idle.

Zhang Ye wanted to have a smoke, but he couldn't find his cigarettes in any of his pockets. He looked around the house, but there were no cigarettes to be found either. He remembered that he had some in his pockets, but now even his lighter was missing. He thought about it for a moment and decided that it must have been Rao Aimin who 'confiscated' his cigarettes. During this time of sickness, smoking would not be good for his body. Well, Old Rao was really not sparing any effort in caring for him.

What should he do?

Oh, there's the lottery!

Zhang Ye had pondered for a full day before finding something he could do.

His reputation points gained so far, together with those from ”Woman Flower”, the poem, and the incident with Lee Anson had all been recorded by the game ring and had reached a total of 55 million now. This was the result of his recent hard work and was considered to be his 'hard earned money'. This was a figure that dazzled Zhang Ye's eyes, as it was such a large figure. His game ring inventory was almost empty by now, unless you counted those s.h.i.+tty Difficulty Adjustment Die as items. His inventory had almost run completely dry, it was in dire need of restocking! His goals for this year had already been reached, and he still needed to continuously increase his reputation points. He needed to keep climbing in the entertainment circle to the very top, so these inventory items would be very important to him. It was his trump card. A new year and a new beginning. He would definitely need to stock up on ammo to prepare for times of necessity.

He had just finished his shower. It would be a lucky time for lottery!

Draw!

Do a test draw to see how the luck would be!

Zhang Ye clicked on the game menu. As he had a lot of reputation points now, he behaved very generously. He did not feel his heart ache at all. He tapped on the draw freely, and without seeing where the needle would stop, he bought one Additional Stake.

Spin on!

Spin on!

The needle slowly came to a stop!

Treasure Chest (Small) was received. It was a Consumption Category item!

”X-Ray vision eye drops” x 2: Upon applying to the eyes, it will grant the user X-Ray vision. Lasts for 5 minutes.

This was a new item. Zhang Ye had never gotten this item in the past, but looking at it, he felt lucky that he did not buy too many additional stakes for that round, otherwise it would really have been a waste. This item did not seem to have too much of a practical use. What could X-Ray vision be used for? Could it grant him an increase in reputation? Could it help him to become more and more successful in the entertainment industry?

Eh? Wait a minute.

Didn't the Landlord auntie say she was going to take a shower!?

Was she done with her shower yet? She shouldn't be done yet, right?

Zhang Ye stopped his lottery draw to retrieve the X-Ray vision eye drops from the treasure chest. He put one of them into his inventory and, with the other, he opened and dripped it into his eyes.

The eye drops took effect!

Countdown of five minutes begins!

The next moment, all Zhang Ye saw was pitch black. He looked at the wall and seemingly saw some metal rods and concrete, but as the lighting wasn't good, it appeared rather blurry. He knew that the X-Ray vision had taken effect, but how did you adjust the zooming? When he had that thought, his eyes somehow obeyed and followed along by zooming in. His vision had now pierced past the wall at home and moved forward to quite a distance. Finally, it stopped at the landlord auntie's living room!

How high-tech!

This X-Ray vision was too amazing!

Zhang Ye was very excited. He walked over and and pressed himself against the wall at his house, but his vision was now focused on another house. He saw Chenchen sitting in the living room, not doing her homework at all. As Zhang Ye was very familiar with the layout of Rao Aimin's house, he easily navigated his vision into the bathroom!

He could see through into it now!

His vision was zooming in!

But there was no one inside. It was completely empty!
