Lu Cheng returned to his room, and in his mind, the system's light screen quietly unfolded.
Name: Xiao Fan
Identity: Protagonist of "Former Crown Prince, Reborn to Sweep the City"
Main Ability: Villain Simulation System
"A simulator?"
No wonder this new Xiao Fan was much more cautious than the previous one.
It turned out he had a full map hack, allowing him to pre-enact the future an infinite number of times.
Just then, Lu Xuan rushed in.
"Brother! What are you laughing about? Have you been charmed by this little vixen!"
"Follow me."
As he spoke, Lu Cheng stood up and walked towards Bai Zhi's room.
"Ah? Where are we going now?"
Lu Xuan was stunned; they had just rested for a bit.
"I'm not going! You pervert! Don't you dare touch me again!"
But from next door, Bai Zhi immediately shrieked.
"Let's go see our old friend."
"Didn't you want to fall into his arms?"
"Let's see how he's doing after you scared him away. We should at least show some concern, right?"
These words successfully piqued the curiosity of both girls.
Lu Xuan wanted to see what else her brother was interested in, an old friend?
As for Bai Zhi, she understood his implication... Sure enough, this villain also discovered Xiao Fan!
So, she wanted to know what was different about this new Son of Destiny...
Meanwhile, Xiao Fan sat in the dilapidated hotel, closing his eyes, adjusting his breathing, and getting his mental state to its optimal level.
As the clock struck midnight, he immediately gave the command in his mind to enter the simulation!
"System! Start simulation!"
Simulation begins...
You learned from the lessons of the day and decided to change your strategy, no longer focusing solely on the stone king.
You believe that since Lu Cheng appeared early, there is a high probability that he is also after the stone king.
Early the next morning, before dawn, you quietly left the hotel and headed straight for the Jade Gambling Festival venue.
You did not go to the crowded and conspicuous C-zone, but instead went around to the outer perimeter of the venue, to the most chaotic and inconspicuous rough stone markets.
You plan to use your Grandmaster Level Source Art to first find some good rough stones from the piles of scrap here, accumulate your initial capital, and then plan for the future.
You crouched in front of a stall piled high with waste stones, your gaze like lightning, quickly locking onto a rough stone with a pine flower python pattern on its surface among a pile of dusty stones.
You are currently bargaining with the stall owner, and everything is going very smoothly.
There is no anomaly, but you always feel as if, in the dark, a pair of eyes is secretly watching you, and that gaze is getting closer and closer.
Xiao Fan's heart suddenly pounded.
This feeling had never appeared in previous simulations, not even in the two simulations in the Demon City.
What does it mean?
Have I really been discovered and targeted?
Simulation continues...
Your heart tightened, but as things stood, you quickly completed the transaction, buying the valuable rough stone at an extremely low price.
You did not linger, carrying the raw stone, you quickly passed through the crowd and found a secluded, unmanned small shop, ready to cut the stone immediately.
Everything is normal, the master begins to cut the stone.
But that feeling of being watched became even stronger.
It was as if someone was standing behind you, observing your every move with great interest.
You suddenly turn your head!
Inside the shop, there is only you and the master cutting the stone in front of you.
You thought you were too nervous and were hallucinating, so you continued cutting the stone.
The stone skin peeled off, and a pleasing flash of green appeared before your eyes—it was ice-grade with floating flowers! Its value is at least over a million!
Your heart was overjoyed, and your vigilance, at this moment, relaxed for an instant.
And just as you were fully focused, preparing to completely extract that piece of jade, that feeling of being watched reached its peak!
You could even clearly smell a faint, unfamiliar fragrance that didn't belong here!
You walk out of the small shop with the jade, immediately preparing to escape.
Three people appear, and you don't even have time to clearly see their faces.
He casually kicked you to death.
You died.
Simulation ends.
"Phew..."
Xiao Fan's consciousness suddenly broke free from the simulation space. He was drenched in cold sweat, his face ashen.
He died.
He died again.
But this time, what frightened him was not death itself.
But the realistic, hair-raising feeling of being watched in the simulation!
"Something's not right!"
"This feeling is too real; it doesn't seem like it was simulated!"
He suddenly leaped out of bed, the vigilant heart of a battle-hardened Crown Prince from a dynasty, wildly warning him at this moment!
He scanned every corner of the room with sharp eyes, like a disturbed leopard.
Under the bed, nothing.
Behind the curtains, nothing.
In the small bathroom, nothing either.
The entire room was airtight, the doors and windows were locked tightly from the inside, it was impossible for anyone to have entered!
Even on the street outside the window, under the streetlights, there was no one!
"Could it be... I'm really being overly suspicious?"
Xiao Fan's brows furrowed tightly.
He even suspected whether the original owner's cowardly obsession was affecting his judgment.
He paced around the room twice in annoyance, feeling sticky and uncomfortable.
He took off his shirt, preparing to take a cold shower to completely calm himself down.
However, the moment he took off his clothes, his movements suddenly froze.
He slowly lowered his head and looked at his lower abdomen.
There, at some point, was a crooked, childishly drawn... turtle, made with a black marker?
Boom!
Xiao Fan's brain exploded at that moment!
What did this mean?
He came?!
That man, just now, really came here?
While I was immersed in the simulation, he silently snuck into my room!
Then, like playing with a pet, he left this mocking and humiliating mark on my body!
No!
Impossible, even during the simulation, his mental power was sensing the outside world, and there was clearly no movement!
He didn't believe it!
It must be an accident; it couldn't have been drawn just now.
Maybe it appeared on him when he went out today!
...Inside the Rolls-Royce.
Lu Xuan was holding a nearly dry marker, gleefully drawing an equally crooked little turtle on Bai Zhi's hand.
"Brother, look, isn't my drawing much better than the one just now?"
Bai Zhi looked at the "masterpiece" on her hand, on the verge of tears, then looked at Lu Cheng, who was smiling gleefully beside her, feeling her worldview shattered once again.
A destined villain, instead of plotting in the dead of night or planning to destroy the world,
was taking his sister and her, the "undercover agent," to secretly sneak into the Son of Destiny's room, just to... draw a turtle on his stomach?
"You devil! Pervert!"
"How childish are you! To pull such a prank!"
"This is completely meaningless!"
Bai Zhi could only use such powerless curses to vent her inner breakdown.
Ding! Villain Emotion Value +100!
Lu Cheng looked at her, then reached out and gently pinched Bai Zhi's puffed-up cheek.
"See."
"Isn't it fun to tease a self-important little mouse?"
