12: Chapter 12 Bonus

"Who is the class beauty?? You don't know?"

"No way, Brother Su."

"It's been almost three years, and you don't know who our class beauty is?"

Li Tao said, unable to believe it.

But Su Lin's expression was sincere, as if he really didn't know.

"You actually don't know!"

"That shouldn't be right. The class beauty is so pretty, even other classes know about her."

"It's Jiang Yan."

"Fair skin, beautiful face, great figure, 88 points of Blood Qi, first among the girls."

"Her other grades are also in the top three of the class."

"Her family background is good, and she's strong too."

"She's the goddess of so many people, and you actually don't know?"

Li Tao looked at Su Lin strangely.

"So it's her."

Su Lin knew of her, but that was all.

In fact, other than Lu Qianqian, Su Lin had no interaction with any of the girls in the class.

If Lu Qianqian weren't a girl, he would have been completely isolated from the girls in the class.

There was no other reason; he had been somewhat depressed over the interruption of his martial arts path these past years, and aside from attending classes on time, he basically didn't care about anything else.

He naturally looked cold and aloof, and with that added touch of gloominess, even fewer people dared to approach him.

"The class beauty was just discussing you in the group chat; maybe she wants to team up with you this time."

"It would piss off that idiot Ning Xiufeng; the class beauty is always lukewarm toward him."

"Oh."

"Brother Su, I'm just saying, if—if the class beauty invites you, would you team up with her?"

"We'll see; I don't know her that well."

Su Lin said evasively. He was more concerned right now about how to make money to buy milk tea.

...

Su Lin said goodbye to Li Tao, and they each went home.

When he got home and took out his phone, he discovered that the class group was indeed discussing him.

Jiang Yan: Is Su Lin's Blood Qi really over 100 points now?

Xu Ping: "Holy crap, Sister Jiang, you've started caring about Su Lin too?"

"It's truly incredible that Little Jiang actually said Su Lin's name."

Ning Xiufeng: "Goddess Jiang, Su Lin definitely cheated last time. How could his Blood Qi possibly be 100? My Blood Qi of 93 points is the real deal!"

Speechless.

Su Lin put down his phone and took stock of his gains this time.

He had bought a flawed martial art technique and been ripped off for 50 yuan.

But he had unexpectedly triggered his talent and obtained an A-grade martial art technique.

This was something he hadn't expected at all.

"So, my talent doesn't just increase Blood Qi?"

"It can actually comprehend A-grade martial art techniques."

"If I took this martial art technique to sell…"

If Su Lin took this A-grade martial art technique to sell, becoming a millionaire instantly wouldn't be a problem.

But possessing such a treasure invites trouble.

Jianghuo City is not peaceful right now.

He was too weak, and he had no background or influence.

If news of the A-grade martial art technique got out, he might not be able to protect his martial art technique, or his own safety and that of his family.

"I can't sell it."

Su Lin said firmly.

Su Lin opened his phone to check his account balance.

Balance: 33.86 yuan.

"Too poor. I'm really going to be broke to death."

"I'm almost unable to even afford milk tea."

Su Lin rubbed his head.

The week wasn't over yet, and it wasn't time for his allowance.

He was too embarrassed to take the initiative and ask his parents for more.

"Helpless. Without money, even having a heaven-defying talent doesn't help."

"Money is truly omnipotent."

Su Lin cast his phone and his worries aside and fell fast asleep.

...

The next day, Su Lin was walking to school early.

His phone vibrated.

"Hello, may I ask if this is student Su Lin?"

A somewhat cold male voice came from the other end of the line.

"It is."

Su Lin felt a bit nervous.

What happened? He hadn't done anything?

"Hello, I am the captain of the 875th Law Enforcer team, Liu Yi. We received your report yesterday, and two members of my team went to investigate."

"We discovered one outlaw."

"Your report was verified, and we will be issuing you a whistleblower bonus."

Su Lin frowned.

What?

That person really was an outlaw?

Su Lin couldn't imagine it.

That meant that yesterday, Su Lin and Li Tao had been in almost zero-distance contact with an outlaw?

An outlaw who had killed countless people, with hands stained with blood.

And they had talked to them like normal people yesterday?

Su Lin couldn't help but sweat in his palms.

"What about that outlaw?"

"He is still on the run, but he has been heavily wounded."

"We will search with all our might, and we believe we will find him before long."

"You don't need to worry. Starting today, we will strengthen precautions and increase patrols by the Law Enforcers."

"You also don't need to worry about retaliation from the outlaw."

"The bonus will be sent to your account immediately. Please check it. That is all, goodbye."

"I…"

Before Su Lin could finish, the call was hung up.

At the same time, a message popped up.

"Your account ending in 8888 has received a transfer of 3000 yuan."

"Uh."

Su Lin looked at the message on his phone and stopped in his tracks.

His mood was a bit complicated at that moment.
