章節 40: Chapter 39
Next, Chen Ye checked the Reincarnation Forum for information about the Golden Treasure Chest and Personal Instance Cards.
He found nothing...
No one had ever received an SSS-grade super-god rating in the Reincarnation Space, so no one had obtained these items.
Ding ding ding!
The class bell rang.
Out of respect for the teacher, Chen Ye put away his phone. On the surface, he appeared to be listening attentively, but in his mind, he was contemplating whether to use the "Personal Instance Card" tonight to start his own instance.
Since he didn't have a cooldown card, he would have to wait a week to run another instance in the Reincarnation Tower. The days without running an instance were incredibly dull!
If other reincarnators knew what Chen Ye was thinking, they would probably want to kill him...
The instances in the Reincarnation Tower are filled with dangers. No one would risk their life for fun unless it was to become stronger. Only someone like Chen Ye, who knew the plot, would feel uncomfortable without running an instance.
...
The entire morning was spent in boredom. Chen Ye felt it was a waste of time.
So...
He planned to take the afternoon off.
In the homeroom teacher's office, Chen Ye stated his purpose: "Ma'am, I have something to do this afternoon and would like to request leave."
Hearing a leave request, the homeroom teacher, who was reading, instinctively frowned.
"Leave?" The teacher stared at Chen Ye. "The college entrance exams are in half a month, and you want to take leave at this critical moment?"
Chen Ye shrugged and lied smoothly: "I've been feeling anxious and having irregular heartbeats lately. I can't sleep well at night. I think it's due to the stress of the upcoming exams, so I want to go out and get some fresh air to avoid driving myself crazy."
Other students might be afraid of the homeroom teacher, but Chen Ye, being a mature man at heart, had no fear.
The teacher was about to scold him but remembered a recent news story about a high school student who couldn't handle the stress of the college entrance exams and jumped off a building. So, she changed her tone.
"How long do you need?"
"Just the afternoon."
"Alright, but you must return to class on time tomorrow."
The teacher waved her hand generously.
Her easygoing response was partly because Chen Ye's academic performance wasn't great. If he were a top student, she wouldn't have let him go so easily.
...
After leaving school, Chen Ye returned home immediately.
To his surprise, no one was home. His father wasn't there, even though he usually came home to sleep after the night shift.
Chen Ye didn't think much of it. Perhaps his father had gone out for something.
Chen Ye then grabbed some change, took out the box of gold bars, and left the house. He planned to exchange the gold bars for money to improve his living conditions and also to ease his father's burden.
However, gold bars from legitimate gold shops usually have markings, either a series of numbers or letters. So, today's task was to melt the gold bars into raw gold and then sell it.
Although this would reduce the value of the gold bars, it was worth it to protect his "Shura" alias from being exposed.
He wasn't worried about Miss Wen because he knew her true identity. If she exposed him, the worst that could happen was that she would kill her own brother to prove her point!
As a tough guy, there's nothing he wouldn't do. The concern was whether her family members, like her parents, would also find out about "Shura's" true identity.
Human nature is unpredictable! You never know what people might do for profit.
Chen Ye couldn't eliminate all of Wen's relatives and friends, so he had to avoid exposing his Shura alias until he was strong enough.
Recently, "Shura" had become quite popular, and many people were looking for him. To prevent this, Chen Ye decided to handle the gold himself.
...
A moment later, Chen Ye arrived at the bus station and boarded a bus heading to another city. He didn't take the faster and more comfortable high-speed train because of the security checks, which would be problematic with his box of gold bars. In this country, private individuals carrying more than 100 grams of non-manufactured gold are considered smugglers!
By boarding the bus midway, he could avoid security checks. The driver, looking to evade taxes, was also happy to pick up passengers midway.
Why go to another city?
Chen Ye knew that every city has its own gold trading circles. If he melted and sold the gold in his own city, the news might leak out, attracting unwanted attention.
Though the amount of gold he had wasn't much, it was still significant. Better safe than sorry.
As for his own safety...
With his current strength, even encountering robbers wouldn't be a problem!
