Folk Card Maker: Starting from Painted Skin

Director Tang stood in the corridor of the Public Security Bureau, where a window offered a view of the distance.

If the air quality in Lanruo City was good, you could see Fengdu in the distance from here.

But nowadays, ever since the incident at Joy Lake, Lanruo City has been shrouded in a persistent mist every night.

The local residents have gone from initial tension and fear to a state of adaptation.

Although Director Tang couldn't believe it, he also knew that Zhang Jingtian wasn't the type to boast.

So, this matter was most likely true.

On the other hand, Director Tang was also amused. After completing this task, the first thing Zhang Jingtian did was ask for a reward.

To be honest, many young people in their department, after finally completing a task, would suppress their desire for a reward, even if they wanted one.

But after getting along for a long time, Director Tang felt that Zhang Jingtian's straightforward personality was quite good, at least he didn't have to guess what he was thinking.

At this moment, Director Tang chuckled: "Really? We haven't even made any progress yet, and you've already solved it? You can't joke about something like this."

Zhang Jingtian immediately told him over the phone how he had lured out the ghost and then resolved the situation, from beginning to end.

After hearing this, Director Tang raised an eyebrow, his tone full of anger: "You were too reckless! If the opponent was strong, you would be dead now!"

Zhang Jingtian knew that although Director Tang was scolding him now, it was essentially a form of concern for him.

"I had already analyzed that it shouldn't be too strong, that's why I dared to do it. Don't worry, Director, I cherish my life very much and would never sacrifice myself for the sake of others. I'm not that much of a saint."

Director Tang shook his head again, not knowing what to say.

This Zhang Jingtian really said everything that was on his mind.

"Forget it, now that it's already happened, I won't say anything more.

As for the reward, it will definitely be there. Come to the Public Security Bureau first."

Zhang Jingtian, riding in his sedan, crossed the busy pedestrian crossing and returned to the Public Security Bureau.

At this time, everyone in the Public Security Bureau was dumbfounded.

They had just asked the network security department to help them block all kinds of suspicious group chats.

But now, they were suddenly told that the incident had been resolved.

They all had a feeling of unreality.

And most importantly, this incident was actually resolved by Zhang Jingtian, a high school student.

After Zhang Jingtian returned to the Public Security Bureau, he found himself being scrutinized by everyone.

They seemed to want to examine him from head to toe.

"I did solve the incident alone, but you don't have to be so surprised, right?"

They smiled and explained:

"This incident is rated as C-level in our internal assessment. This means that it requires at least one Platinum Card Creator to assist and five or more Gold Card Creators as the main force to complete it.

But you, a Silver Card Creator, completed it independently. Isn't it normal for us to be surprised?"

Hearing them say this, Zhang Jingtian realized just how amazing he was.

No wonder they were all looking at him with such eyes.

"This guy wasn't actually strong, just relatively cunning. I was able to solve it also because of luck. You don't have to admire me too much."

Zhang Jingtian waved his hand, not wanting them to have too high expectations of him.

Director Tang rolled his eyes, knowing that Zhang Jingtian's remarks were never serious.

He strode over and said to Zhang Jingtian: "Alright, stop secretly gloating. We all know how amazing you are. You were able to solve it, no matter what you relied on, the fact is that you succeeded.

But this kind of thing, as you said, has a lot of luck involved. Even if you really want to take risks, you should tell me, and I will assist you.

Of course, since you succeeded, we don't need to dwell on these things anymore. What I want to say now is that the thinking of many people in our Public Security Bureau must also keep up with the times.

The Heavenly Disaster Legion is also progressing. The ways they invade now are constantly adapting to the lives of modern people, making it impossible to guard against.

So we can't stand still either. We should all learn from Comrade Zhang Jingtian!"

At this time, everyone shouted in unison, "Learn from Comrade Zhang Jingtian!"

Hearing this, even Zhang Jingtian, who usually liked to show off, was a little embarrassed, making it seem as if he had become some kind of great hero.

He suspected that Director Tang was deliberately mocking him!

"That, there's no need for that." Zhang Jingtian quickly waved his hand: "I'm just an ordinary, newly-initiated Card Creator."

"Alright, come over here, I'll give you your reward."

Zhang Jingtian walked over and saw that Director Tang had brought a box.

From the outside, this was not an ordinary box.

When Director Tang opened the box, Zhang Jingtian saw the contents and smiled with surprise.

It was a purple material.

【 Corpse Beauty 】.

In the material frame, was an incomparably beautiful woman, her skin seemingly still vibrant.

If she wasn't lying in a coffin, it would be hard for anyone to consider her a dead person.

Zhang Jingtian grinned from ear to ear, originally thinking that Director Tang would continue to give him reputation points, but he didn't expect that he would directly give him a purple material.

In this way, he could use the reputation points he had accumulated earlier to exchange for another material.

If he wanted to be safe, he could also use the accumulated points he had recently saved to buy another purple material.

Combined, he should be able to make another Heroic Spirit Card.

If there were no major problems, it would most likely be a purple Heroic Spirit Card, which would significantly improve his strength.

Thinking of this, Zhang Jingtian became excited.

Director Tang saw Zhang Jingtian grinning and snorted:

"Satisfied now? If you were a member of the Public Security Bureau, I definitely wouldn't give you such a high reward. I'm just treating you as a student, and you did help us solve a very difficult incident, so I gave you a purple material card."

Hearing this, Zhang Jingtian couldn't help but tease: "Director, you don't have to be so stingy, right? It's just a purple material."

"Well, there's no way around it, Lanruo City isn't that rich. You work hard, and if you can go to the Imperial Capital and Magic Capital, then the rewards you get for each commission will be much more than now."

Zhang Jingtian wouldn't have thought this way before, but now, he was really a little tempted.

For himself, going to the Imperial Capital Card Academy and the Magic Capital Card Academy didn't seem so out of reach now.
