Godzilla took out the box which was used to hold the gun.
Hans blew the dust off of it and said, ”Sh*t, this box doesn’t match my precious gun at all—I need to get a nice box for it!”
The treasure hunters’ eyes followed the M1887, watching with amazement until Hans shut the gun box; they had a disappointed look once it was closed.
One treasure hunter sighed. He wished such amazing luck like this could be his. ”This can’t be a coincidence. Li, Big Fox, you both must have known about this gun and gone after the house.”
The treasure hunters were not dumb. The duo always claimed they simply had good luck; while luck could have been a factor for a few auctions, it was as if they had good luck at every auction they attended.
Another treasure hunter asked, ”How did you know about the gun? I’m sure it was not kept in the open—absolutely not!”
”Li, do you have X-ray eyes? I’ve heard from many that you have X-ray eyes!”
”I don’t believe this is luck!”
Li Du shrugged his shoulders. ”If I had X-ray eyes, I wouldn’t be doing this. I would go to Las Vegas and make a killing at the casinos. Then I’d go back to China with that huge sum of money!”
Everyone seemed to agree with that, nodding their heads. Precisely—if one had X-ray eyes, wouldn’t it make more sense to go to a casino and win some easy cash? one of them thought.
Li Du continued, ”Even if I didn’t go to Las Vegas, I would have gone to East Asia to gamble on emerald and jade. With the X-ray eyes, I could earn a few billion in just a few days’ time!
”Or, I would go search for a mineral deposit, buy that land, and be the owner to a Mine—I could earn so much more!”
Troy asked, ”Okay, how did you know the gun was in there then?”
Li Du laughed, ”I didn’t notice the gun. Getting this house was pure luck—I just wanted to tease our treasure tycoon Freddy.”
Freddy had been using ”Treasure Tycoon” to address both Li and Hans. And everytime he had used the term, it was full of sarcasm and disdain.
When Li Du used it on him, it felt like a slap in the face for Freddy.
The treasure hunters still did not entirely believe Li Du. They felt something was amiss, but could not offer any explanation either. They stared at him in doubt.
Li Du shrugged. ”Okay, believe it not, I was really not bent on getting this house, but I did see something in here—if my guess is correct.”
Li turned to Godzilla and said, ”Did you find anything I told you to look out for?”
The big Mexican guy nodded and carried a big box out from the Iron Knight.
A few treasure hunters gasped when they saw the big box. ”You lucky b*st*rds, there’s more good stuff in there?”
Godzilla opened the box. There were small, hardcover cases of various game titles stacked neatly inside.
Li Du laughed, ”Cool! That means we made the right judgement. When Big Fox and I entered this house, Big Fox was telling me that it had belonged to a nerd.
”Then I saw game posters on the bedroom wall, and we reckoned there might be some game-related stuff in there. God bless, we guessed it right!”
Li took the discs out from a game case. The game discs and their boxes were well-kept.
The game title read, ”Diablo: Hellfire.”
He took the game discs out of another case. The picture on the case was two profiles of two different characters, and between them was a sword: one was a ferocious orc revealing his sharp teeth, while the other was a bearded knight glaring fiercely at the orc.
The game title of this box was, ”World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade.”
Hans was curious, and also went through the various game titles and muttered, ”F*ck, ‘Rock n' Roll Racing!’”
On the cover of the box, a game character sitting on a big, red racing car, holding out one arm a thumbs up. The racing car had big wheels and a glossy look—a typical portrayal of the American muscle car in cartoons. There was even a rocket launcher drawn on the car.
Hans flipped the box over and immediately he saw the name of the game maker in obvious print: ”Silicon & Synapse.”
