Folk Card Maker: Starting from Painted Skin

Tang Youai's laughter died in his throat as he listened to Huai Yalin. Lanruo City already had the hidden danger of Joy Lake, and now the Jade Lotus Gang had emerged.

He suddenly felt that his position as the director of the Public Security Bureau was in jeopardy.

Thinking of this, Tang Youai sighed, "Alas, why are these cultists like cockroaches, impossible to kill!"

Huai Yalin was much more composed: "Director Tang, you don't need to be so anxious. Anyway, the district leaders are here, so why not just let them worry about it?"

Hearing Huai Yalin's words, Tang Youai immediately thought it was a good idea.

Indeed, others could shoulder the responsibility if the sky fell.

He was just a small deputy director of the Public Security Bureau in the city and didn't need to worry so much.

"Do you think their initial target might be...?" Tang Youai knew very well that these cultists were attention-seekers; the bigger the commotion they made, the more insane they became.

Therefore, it was highly likely that they wanted to kill the district leaders who had come this time.

If they succeeded, it would definitely be a major incident and would cause maximum public panic.

At that time, everyone would know that the dreaded Jade Lotus Gang had returned.

And public panic would fuel the invasion of the Scourge.

Then the situation would be even more severe.

"How did you discover him?"

Now, Tang Youai was beginning to suspect that Zhang Jingtian had discovered something wrong with this cultist long ago, so he deliberately asked him for a spell card.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jingtian laughed.

It seemed Tang Youai really thought he had a cheat code.

"I'm not that amazing," Zhang Jingtian explained, "I just noticed that this person was acting suspiciously. Right after my match, he suddenly acted like he knew me very well. I felt like he must have ulterior motives.

The facts proved that my idea was right. But I also need to thank you, Director Tang. If it weren't for your spell card in the end, I definitely wouldn't have been able to kill him."

Tang Youai smiled: "It's okay, this is what I should do. After all, you are the future of our Lanruo City!"

Huai Yalin interrupted Tang Youai's official platitudes: "Anyway, this matter has nothing to do with me, so I'll go back first."

Tang Youai knew he had no reason to keep Huai Yalin, so he let her leave.

After Huai Yalin left, Tang Youai immediately approached Zhang Jingtian and whispered:

"Did you find that the two of you are quite similar?"

Zhang Jingtian looked puzzled. He didn't know where he and Huai Yalin were similar. Was it their looks?

"But you accidentally killed a cultist, so you'll definitely get a good reward."

"Director Tang, can you give me a rough idea of what the reward will be?"

Tang Youai shook his head: "I will definitely report this matter directly to the district, so they will be the ones to reward you. Anyway, it won't be bad. The district has much more money than our city."

Zhang Jingtian's smile became more sincere.

He really didn't expect to receive a reward.

Moreover, neither Huai Yalin nor Tang Youai asked if Bai Yang had left anything behind.

It wasn't that they didn't know, but they tacitly agreed to treat those things as Zhang Jingtian's spoils of war.

At this moment, Zhang Jingtian handed over the unusable spirit card from Bai Yang.

"Azure Jade Golem, it's been a long time," Tang Youai stared at the card face, sighing.

"Director, will this affect our high school league?" Zhang Jingtian asked softly, looking at Tang Youai.

Tang Youai shook his head: "No, you students just need to fulfill your responsibilities. We'll handle the rest.

Of course, to prevent similar things from happening again, I won't publicly praise you anymore. Lest something similar happen again."

After hearing this, Zhang Jingtian also agreed with Director Tang's approach.

After this incident, he became more aware that he must keep a low profile.

Being too flamboyant would attract some malicious people.

"Well, I plan to lie low before the college entrance examination."

Hearing Zhang Jingtian's words, Tang Youai laughed:

"Can you really do it? I don't believe it. You always manage to surprise me. I never thought you would be related to the Jade Lotus Gang.

Forget it, it's good that you're still alive."

"I still have to thank you, Director Tang, for that spell card. Without it, I would really be dead."

Tang Youai was a little smug after hearing this: "Nonsense! That's an orange card! This card was my year-end bonus at the Public Security Bureau's annual meeting last year! But now, it's been used by you. Alas, don't mention it, I'm quite heartbroken."

Zhang Jingtian laughed after hearing this:

"Spell cards are made for people to use. Giving it to me, Director Tang, your card is worth more than its value. Don't worry, when I get rich in the future, I will definitely not forget your guidance, Director Tang."

"Well, I hope that no matter where you go to school in the future, you can come back to our Ninth District and contribute a little. I know I shouldn't say these words.

But we are not like the First District, which has such a rich talent reserve, so geniuses like you must be fought for."

In that instant, Zhang Jingtian became nervous. This should be the biggest official he had ever met in his life.

"I, should I pay attention to anything at that time?"

Zhang Jingtian asked softly.

"No, our director is a very easy-going person and doesn't care about formalities. Moreover, he has been watching your performance in these few matches. Our director will definitely like talents like you."

Although Director Tang said so, Zhang Jingtian still tidied up his appearance in the car.

When they arrived at the hotel where the director was staying, they already knew about the Jade Lotus Gang.

At this moment, the expressions of several leaders who came from the Ninth District were particularly serious.

"Their target should be me," the director frowned. "If they want to attack ordinary people, I don't know how many people will be killed."

"I think we should conduct a carpet search of Lanruo City next, and we must find all the cultists and suspicious people!

Otherwise, I will have no face to leave Lanruo City like this."

"And that student Zhang Jingtian, we must also commend him properly."
