Chapter 240 Card Opening
Chapter 240 Card Opening
Han Che sat in the corner behind the bookshelf, leaning against the metal cabinet, while Qi Yuhao squatted beside him, hugging his knees with both hands.
The bookshelf mostly obscured their figures; from the other side of the office, only four legs and a small section of their trousers could be seen.
Han Che had Qi Yuhao search the rest of the office.
He took out two gold coins and a wine cup from the containers Han Che pointed out to him. The two small gold coins made him extremely happy.
He held the item in his hands and examined it several times before carefully putting it into his pocket.
Han Che smiled at his happy expression and chatted with him casually, telling him some interesting stories about the dangerous area.
For example, what good items will spawn in which corner of which map, what kind of NPCs will appear from which direction, and what guns are best paired together.
Qi Yuhao listened attentively, nodding occasionally.
Han Che told him about interesting things that happened in the danger zone and some common sense, so that he could brag about it to his so-called "friends" when he got back.
That's how things are sometimes during student days. Even if you know the other person isn't a real friend, you still have to interact with them. Han Che understood this, which is why he talked a lot more.
After Han Che finished speaking, Qi Yuhao also talked about things related to himself, such as his father being away from home often, and his mother having to go to the battlefield whenever there was a war, only able to send messages home occasionally.
These events also helped Han Che, this "alien," to gain a better understanding of the world.
The most useful information Han Che obtained was that this world was similar to his previous life in many ways, but it was not peaceful.
Although his previous life wasn't exactly peaceful either, the era he lived in was characterized by constant friction around the world, but it could still be considered relatively peaceful, with various countries exercising relative restraint.
This world is truly turbulent, with even major nations engaged in border wars, and there is even a risk of a full-blown conflict at any moment.
Because of the world's energy shortage and the emergence of cutting-edge technologies, many organizations and countries have harbored ulterior motives and want to divide up the resources of other countries.
This is why the world situation has never been peaceful.
The father of this young master Qi was engaged in engineering, but it was actually related to the official military, namely military facilities.
Logically, such projects shouldn't fall to individual business owners, but according to what Qi Shao learned, many project owners, including his family, were involved.
Qi Shao was unaware of the intricacies of the matter. His father remained silent about these issues and had no intention of letting Qi Shao take over the family business.
Han Che had many guesses, but no matter which one they were, it seemed that this Boss Qi was in grave danger.
Old Zhou and Xiao Bai have finished searching and are calling Han Che over.
Han Che stood up, patted Qi Shao on the shoulder, and gave him a fist bump.
"Qi Yuhao," Han Che's lips curled into a smile. This name always reminded him of the operator he used to love playing. "Don't let the difficulties in front of you defeat you. You never lose, right?"
Qi Yuhao paused for a moment, clearly not understanding the deeper meaning, but still bumped fists with Han Che, "Yeah! I won't give up!"
"Well done!"
Cai Chengfu also returned to his office from outside, and everyone gathered in front of the warden's desk.
"We've searched everything," Old Zhou said. "Although there were no red envelopes from the insurance company, we got several gold envelopes, which are worth quite a bit of money. It was a pretty good haul."
"Mine is about the same," Xiaobai nodded in reply, then looked at Han Che.
"Yeah, me too," Han Che replied dismissively.
Xiao Bai glanced at his expression, then at Qi Shao beside him, but didn't ask any further questions.
"Everyone, I just went out and found the location of the warden's collection room. It's very close; just go out into the corridor and turn the corner. Let's go there now!" Cai Chengfu suggested.
This was probably what everyone was most concerned about. Following Cai Chengfu's footsteps, the group arrived at the entrance of the collection room.
Cai Chengfu stopped and took the key card out of his pocket.
He glanced down at the card, then looked up at the sensor area on the door, turned around and handed the key card to Qi Yuhao.
"Come on, Young Master Qi, you should be the one to open the card you drew."
Standing in the middle of the line, Qi Shao looked surprised. He hadn't even thought that he was involved here. He had originally thought that he would hand over the key card to Cai Chengfu as soon as he took it out.
"You drive, Brother Cai, it's not easy for you either..." Qi Shao replied softly.
Cai Chengfu paused for a moment, then laughed. He pushed the card forward again, "You paid to be the boss, so why should I open it? Besides, you're the one who found this key card. It's very rare; it might be the only one of its kind on the market right now."
Now Qi Shao was even more hesitant to open it. He pulled his hand back and looked at Han Che for help.
Han Che laughed and said, "Go ahead and open it. It might not be anything particularly valuable, so don't put so much pressure on yourself."
"Okay, sure!" Qi Shao nodded, and relaxed a little when he heard Han Che say that.
However, Han Che wasn't lying. He didn't spend much time in the collection room, let alone collect anything valuable there. He usually just kept some snacks he bought from the player world...
Wait! Something's not right! Han Che's expression changed!
Finding snacks that only exist in the player world in the warden's office seems really suspicious!
If Xiaobai and the others find it, will they find it strange?
How did the warden get items from the player world? Who gave them to him? Or did he buy them himself? If he could buy them, does that mean he can enter the player world?
If they follow this line of thought, what will they come up with?
Han Che's back began to sweat, which would definitely make them think that the warden was connected to the player world.
Even though Han Che's suspicions have been largely eliminated in front of Xiao Bai and the others, these doubts will likely lead them to suspect him again sooner or later.
Han Che had kept his favorite snacks in his desk drawer, but Raven discovered them and stole them all. That's why he specifically put the snacks in a locked storage room, but he never expected to run into trouble there!
"drop!"
Qi Shao placed the access card in his hand against the door lock's sensor area, and the access control changed from red to green.
It's too late!
Known as the number one boss in the dangerous area, what treasures does the warden's collection room hold?
Will it be a completely new and never-before-seen phenomenon in the player world?
Will the Dragon Kingdom once again acquire world-leading technology?
Qi Shao slowly pressed down on the doorknob, the sound of the door hinges turning was particularly jarring in the quiet corridor.
The doors gradually opened, and the true appearance of the warden's collection room was finally revealed to everyone.
