Secret Missions

I checked my phone before heading to the apartment. I unlocked another hidden mission.

[Congratulations! You unlocked another secret mission called 'The mafia boss' revenge'. You gained:

1470 exp

200 golds

New item: Gold specter ticket]

I wondered what is the use of the Gold specter ticket. I put my phone to my pocket and went outside the school.

It was twelve o' clock and I headed to the apartment. Li Chen was sitting at my chair at my apartment.

"Ximen Feng! Thank god you're alive!" she hugged me tightly though.

"Yes, I am fine, don't worry," I tried to calm her down because her hug is too tight.

"Oh, right, I need to do my project. See you later." She let out her hug and left. Thank you for making yourself do something so you loose grip.

I closed the door and looked at my phone.

[Congratulations! You leveled up to level 3, your powers and items are now upgraded. Your intelligence points increased.]

I saw a new button. The 'Item usage description'.

[The Gold specter ticket allows you to gain a chance to roll the roulette of specters. Either good item or bad item, Use or No]

I clicked 'use' and it showed a roulette with items in it.

I rolled the roulette and hoped for a good item.

After spinning, it earned him a title which unlocks certain abilities. And the title was Holmesians.

The game sent a notification and it surprised me.

[Congratulations! You are now one of the Holmesians. It involves using mind and deduction skills. The other clan is there in other places. Because you are one of the Holmesians. It can earn you additional 300 intelligence points and exp.]

Then that means that I am not the only player of the 'Twist of the Mind'. The others are also hiding their connection to the game.

I decided to take a rest because tomorrow will be no classes and I will find a new partner. I need one so I will find one.

-------------

"Rise and Shine, Ximen Feng, you still have things to do," I said to myself while stretching my arms in the air. It was eight in the morning.

I prepared my breakfast and ate it. I need to know what I am looking for before I find the person.

Maybe I will send the gold to my bank account first then withdraw them and then, I can pay my partner for his or her participation.

I looked at my phone and looked for the gold he collected. He already earned was about 100 plus.

He saw a withdraw option and clicked it. After filling information about his bank account, he was done withdrawing his gold.

He get his card and then left using his bike to go to the Pei Yu's bank to withdraw. His money before was $200, but when he checked at his money, it was already $400.

He withdrew the half of his money and left. He doesn't know where to go because he got the whole day ahead of him.

He invited Li Chen but he was rejected because she needs to do her project. Guess I need to find a partner then.

I consulted officer Ye Fei if he have any for me but he said they were all busy and have no time.

I traveled using my bike to a mall and walked around. I was planning on buying a book because like everyone knows, I am a nerd.

I hit the book store and found all I needed for my leisure time and detective time. I spent my money wisely to say the least.

I wonder what will be my life after many years while walking around the mall. The mall was not that too much crowded so I walked freely.

"What can I do this day?" I muttered as I gave up looking myself in the future.

"Well, you can just come with me if you want to do something today," a familiar voice whispered at me. When I turned around, I saw Li Chen standing and smiling at me.

"Hey, I thought you need to do your project, you done?" She nodded and then pointed a café.

"Treat me milk tea and then we go somewhere fun and exciting!" I went towards the shop with her.

"Sir may I have two milk tea?"

"What flavor sir?"

"Both winter melon please,"

"You look like a couple, both of you, I recommend you our couple drinks order. Only for a small amount of $50"

"Okay, I will take the one you recommended."

We waited for our order and Li Chen pinched my at my arm.

"What the hell Ximen Feng? You ordered us a couple special. If you weren't my best friend, I would've killed you now!" She didn't screamed and it was a miracle.

"That's why I love you as my only friend, right?" She hugged me after hearing that, she maybe missed the old me saying that to her.

Everybody cheered at us while Li Chen let go of her grip blushing.

Our order was finally served and we seated on a vacant spot.

"I miss you, Ximen Feng! I miss you saying those words again." She almost cried but I was dipping my milk tea.

"Me too, I miss your smile for a day." I know that my deduction work will affect Li Chen but like they always say, accept the consequences.

"Hey, how about a picture both of us." I suggested. I know that if I don't see her, that means it hurts for her so a remembrance can be useful.

"Okay!"

I took out my phone and took a selfie with her.

"Say cheese!"
