Chapter 210

"Speak,"

"With such violent tendencies, it will be hard for you to find a man in the future..."

"Whoosh..."

The wind of the punch arrived, and Lin Ye tilted his head to avoid it.

"Not bad reflexes, but next time it won't be this simple."

Shizuka Hiratsuka withdrew her fist, leaned in close, and whispered into Lin Ye's ear,

"If you manage to attract Yukinoshita, that won't be a problem."

Shocked.

Isn't this a crazy hint?

And with these words, at this distance, Lin Ye is certain that Yukinoshita could hear them too.

Their eyes met and then quickly darted away.

As expected of Shizuka Hiratsuka, killing two birds with one stone—using this to make him behave in the Service Club while also putting Yukinoshita on high alert.

"Teacher, actually, you don't need to worry about this at all. I already have a girl I like; a new one, not Yukinoshita-san."

A certain memory of Shizuka Hiratsuka's was triggered.

"Sakurajima Mai or Hoshino Ai?"

"Can it be both?"

"Heh."

But Lin Ye saying this actually put Shizuka Hiratsuka at ease; daring to say he likes Sakurajima Mai and Hoshino Ai right in front of Yukinoshita shows that Lin Ye has truly let go of Yukinoshita.

Otherwise, who would mention liking other girls in front of the girl they like!

"Good luck! Teacher will be waiting for your good news."

At this moment, Shizuka Hiratsuka waved her hand, leaving the two of them with her departing back.

"I'm off. Yukinoshita, he is entrusted to you."

With a 'Swish!' sound,

The door to the Service Club closed.

The large clubroom was left with only Lin Ye and Yukinoshita.

At this moment,

Without the other knowing, the two had seen through each other's bodies.

After Shizuka Hiratsuka left, Lin Ye felt the quietness of the atmosphere, especially given the current state of the long-haired girl, which couldn't help but stir up some thoughts.

Calm down.

Don't overthink it.

"Sit down first!"

The cold voice broke the silence of the Service Club; the girl turned, picked up the literary anthology on the table, and continued reading.

Lin Ye walked over to the large table made of six desks pushed together and pulled over a wooden chair to sit down.

Yukinoshita sat with perfect posture, her expression calm, her gaze fixed on the text in the book, her slender right fingers turning the pages from time to time, the paper making a 'rustling' sound.

Lin Ye glanced over for a moment before taking out his phone, searching for something random, and pretending to read.

This week's superpower is X-ray vision.

The superpower lasts for seven days and will be refreshed and replaced by another superpower next Monday; based on the 'Time Stop' situation, his game character panel will likely show 'Skill: X-ray Vision' next Monday, but the ability will certainly not be comparable to the 'Superpower: X-ray Vision,' as it will surely have limitations in terms of frequency, duration, or other aspects.

Therefore, if he wants to use X-ray vision to improve himself, this week is the best time.

Now that he knows the regularity of his own cheat, Lin Ye feels a sense of urgency to use the weekly limited superpower to improve his overall level.

And money is naturally one of those things.

Without money, many things are hard to do.

And the fastest ways to make money are nothing more than gambling, drugs, or prostitution.

'X-ray vision' is a powerful tool for gambling.

With the X-ray vision superpower, he could claim to be the new God of Gamblers without any issue.

However, Japanese law strictly prohibits gambling; although there are underground casinos, he currently has no connections, and even if he found a way into an underground casino, it would be fine if his winnings were small, but if the amount were large, he would likely face targeting by the casino's dark forces.

He has weapons and the Time Stop skill, which can handle certain malicious events, but the risk factor remains very high.

Once a bad situation arises and a firefight breaks out, it would easily attract an investigation by the Japanese police.

Therefore...

He cannot choose Japan for gambling.

"Las Vegas casinos are world-famous..."

But he is an Easterner; going to the Atlantic Federation to win big money would still mean facing the casino's breach of contract—the person can leave, but the money must stay, or even the person might not be able to leave, all for the sake of 'maintaining casino credibility.'

Another important factor is that Japan is too far from the Atlantic Federation, and it requires a visa.

It is impossible for him to successfully obtain a visa in a short time.

Therefore,

There is only one choice.

"Aocheng."

It's close, and a weekend is enough for a round trip.

"When I have the ability in the future, I will repay the motherland tenfold or a hundredfold."

He is just borrowing money for now, just like borrowing military supplies from the Atlantic Federation; he will definitely repay it double in the future.

Lin Ye carefully looked at every item on the game panel, making himself as familiar as possible with every item, understanding each ability and prop, and finally, his gaze fell on the skill Time Stop LV1.

Currently, besides being used for skill upgrades, there is no other place to use game points for the time being; Lin Ye estimates that once the game level increases, more permissions will inevitably be opened, and the scope of game point usage will further expand.

But for now, let's use them on upgrading skills!

He only has two skills now; the Persuasion skill LV3 no longer needs to be upgraded for the time being.

Time Stop LV1 needs an upgrade.

【You have used 1000 game points to upgrade Time Stop.】

【Current Time Stop skill level: LV2.】

Lin Ye looked at the skill 'Time Stop LV2.'

【Name: Time Stop LV2.】

【Ability: After using this skill, except for the user, the world will fall into a state of relative stillness, lasting for 10 seconds, can be used 2 times consecutively, cooldown time 50 minutes.】

The duration has become longer, the number of uses has increased, and the cooldown time has decreased.

Good.

Especially the number of uses.

For the same total duration, Lin Ye would rather have more uses.

【You have used 3000 game points to upgrade the skill Time Stop.】

【Current Time Stop skill level: LV3.】

【Name: Time Stop LV3.】

【Ability: After using this skill, except for the user, the world will fall into a state of relative stillness, lasting for 15 seconds, can be used 3 times consecutively, cooldown time 40 minutes.】

Good, very good, excellent.

Now the fault tolerance is much higher.

With his current strength, if he were to board the 18th bus again or head to 'Kyoto Private Eisei High School,' he would have full confidence in clearing the level.

Skills are only auxiliary and play a helping role.

The most important thing is still his own strength.

The Time Stop superpower is not invincible, let alone the current Time Stop skill!

Outside the window,

The sunset was falling, the sky was a golden red,

Noisy sounds were constantly coming from the Sobu High students who were sweating.

A breeze blew in, and the curtains fluttered, constantly forming beautiful arcs.

Lin Ye glanced at the classroom clock; it was already 4:50 PM, and he had been sitting in the Service Club for over half an hour.

He felt it was enough and that he could leave.
