# Chapter 596: You Call It and It Answers?
Lying in the grass, Peeping Tom watched through the space wormhole with great enthusiasm!
Seven or eight people came in batches to buy his Small Ginseng? Afraid he would notice something was off?
So organized and disciplined, this scalper organization was no small fry!
Jiangnan had no intention of startling the snake; instead, he planned to follow the trail and take them all out in one go!
Just then, the muscular man entered the restroom, quickly found a stall, locked the door behind him, and hid himself inside!
Jiangnan blinked. He wasn't here to peep?
But a mere restroom stall couldn't possibly block my line of sight!
Did I earn the title "Bathroom War God" for nothing?
Opening another space wormhole!
The man placed his backpack on the toilet seat, then swiftly began undressing...
In just a few seconds, he stripped completely naked, even taking off his socks and shoes!
Jiangnan: (;*mouth open*)
His eyes almost went blind. What the hell was I peeping at?!
How many times would he have to watch Xuexue Wolfbane to heal his wounded soul...
The man hugged his shoulders and rubbed vigorously: "Hiss—freezing! Freezing! Doing this job in this weather is pure torture!"
"If only I had an alternate dimension like Brother Nan!"
After muttering, the voice that came out was actually that of a young girl!
Jiangnan: ???
Girl cosplaying guy? Or guy cosplaying girl? Little Pudding? Did she eat one of my Buling Pudding?
But just then, fine scales began to appear on the man's skin!
The colors shifted like a rainbow!
The bulky figure gradually became slender, skin turned fair and supple, hair grew out!
In the blink of an eye, a curvy curly-haired beauty appeared before Jiangnan!
Jiangnan was stunned!
Not a transformation from Little Pudding—what kind of special ability was this?
The curly-haired girl, shivering with cold hands and feet, kept rubbing her shoulders!
She quickly pulled shorts, leggings, a sweater, and a women's down jacket out of her backpack, putting them on one by one!
In a few seconds, she was fully dressed, gently brushing her hair out from behind her neck.
She then took out a small mirror to touch up her makeup, blinked her big eyes: "Gu Xiaowei! How can you be so beautiful~"
Jiangnan: (≖_≖‶)
So cute!
If I punch her later, she'll probably cry for a long time, right?
Gu Xiaowei stroked her chin: "The level is a bit high. I need to hurry. Still have seven million to spend!"
Then, under Jiangnan's astonished gaze, her original Platinum 3 aura plummeted to Gold 7!
She put on a hat and mask, slung her backpack over her shoulder, and walked nonchalantly toward the dormitory area!
Jiangnan was bewildered. This was even more overpowering than his Little Pudding. What kind of ability was this?
Wait—were all those seven or eight people who came to buy Small Ginseng just Gu Xiaowei herself?
Jiangnan wiped his nosebleed and teleported to follow!
This scalper organization seemed not as low-level as he had imagined!
He continued to hide and track her.
When Gu Xiaowei arrived at the dormitory area and saw Jiangnan was gone, she was taken aback.
"Eh—classmate? Where's Brother Nan? I still wanted to buy some Small Ginseng from him!"
"Ahh—Brother Nan packed up. Sister Xue doesn't let him come home after 10 o'clock!"
Gu Xiaowei was stunned, then looked disappointed and muttered, "Quite the henpecked husband~"
Jiangnan: (๐≖‸≖) Mind your own business!
Gu Xiaowei had no choice but to give up. She slung her backpack and walked out of the academy under the cover of night.
Jiangnan smirked evilly and continued to follow.
...
In a rented three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment in Rongcheng's development zone!
Kicking off her high heels, Gu Xiaowei threw herself onto the sofa!
She boiled some water, made herself a bowl of instant noodles, added a sausage and two eggs!
Then she took out the Small Ginseng from her backpack—230 in total.
"Phew—finally got some stock. Worth waiting for Brother Nan so long!"
She then pulled out ten boxes of deodorizing late-night snacks, looking thrilled!
"So eating these can eliminate odor? If the boss finds out about this, hehe—"
Gu Xiaowei's eyes sparkled with excitement. She carefully wrapped the haul and decided to put it in the bedroom safe!
Just as she opened the bedroom door, the smile on her face froze.
(٥ơᴗơ)
Jiangnan stood abruptly in the middle of the bedroom. The safe behind the bookshelf had already been pulled out. Jiangnan hadn't even bothered to crack the code!
He had opened a space wormhole, and his hand was already reaching inside!
The air fell into absolute silence...
Jiangnan pulled out a "♡"-shaped multicolored scale from the safe.
"What's this?"
Gu Xiaowei: ???
J-Jiangnan?
Hey hey hey!
Why would you suddenly appear in someone else's bedroom like that?!
And your hand is already in the safe?!
At least show some respect to the safe! Doesn't it deserve any dignity?!
Quickly apologize to it!
That scale is... Ahhh!
Gu Xiaowei forced an apologetic smile: "S-sorry, sir. I came into the wrong apartment. Ahaha—ahahaha!"
With that, she closed the bedroom door. Her face was pale with fear, her heart nearly jumping out of her throat!
Brother Nan found out?
How did he find out?! I made sure no one was following me the whole way!
What to do, what to do?
This is the god who survived flipping over Area 53 and came back alive!
A little Platinum like me can't possibly beat him!
Gu Xiaowei turned to run, but was greeted by a Large Green Stick protruding from a space wormhole!
"Bam!"
She felt her vision go black and passed out.
Dazedly opening her eyes, she found herself slumped on the sofa!
Jiangnan sat on the sofa, slurping instant noodles, scrolling through his phone with the other hand...
Gu Xiaowei snapped awake and tried to move!
She felt her arms bound. Turning her head, she saw a full 18 Spirit-Binding Handcuffs, from her wrists all the way up to her elbows!
[From Gu Xiaowei's Resentment Value +1000!]
[From Gu Xiaowei...]
That many handcuffs? Are you kidding me?
Do you have to be so cautious?
Seeing Jiangnan silent, Gu Xiaowei's big eyes darted around nervously.
She said weakly, "That's my phone!"
Jiangnan grinned, looking at Gu Xiaowei!
Once bound with Spirit-Binding Handcuffs, Gu Xiaowei had reverted to her original form!
A head of black shoulder-length hair, delicate features, a high nose bridge, fair skin, a clear and lovely appearance, with a lively sparkle in her big eyes!
"Liar! This is my phone!"
"How can you prove it's your phone? Call it—will it answer?"
Gu Xiaowei: ???
This was obviously the phone you fished out of my pocket!
That SpongeBob phone case is mine!
It's a phone! How could it possibly answer when I call it?!
"Then if you say it's yours, you call it—will it answer?"
Jiangnan shrugged: "Of course!"
Gu Xiaowei challenged: "Then call it!"
Jiangnan: "Xiao Ai Tongxue!"
Phone: "Here! Master! What can I do for you?"
Gu Xiaowei: !!!∑(ﾟДﾟノ)ノ
Th-this works?!
Jiangnan: ╮(•́ٹ•̀)╭
[From Gu Xiaowei's Resentment Value +666!]
You can't do that!
Gu Xiaowei was terrified now. What exactly did Jiangnan catch her for?
"B-Brother Nan, we can talk nicely, right? I just bought some Small Ginseng from you! It's a normal transaction!"
"I haven't done anything wrong to you, haven't broken any laws!"
"Why did you catch me? How about... you let me go first?"
"If you're hungry, I can cook you a meal? Instant noodles aren't healthy, how about—"
Jiangnan chuckled: "You're pretty fast at unlocking Spirit-Binding Handcuffs. In just a few words, you've already undone six? Tsk tsk tsk—"
"So eager to cook for me? Who taught you that technique? Very professional!"
Gu Xiaowei froze. The motion of picking the lock with a hairpin behind her back stopped instantly. Her pretty face was full of embarrassment, turning red.
Damn it!
Does Brother Nan have eyes in the back of his head?
[From Gu Xiaowei's Resentment Value +888!]
Jiangnan smiled: "Your scalper business is pretty big, huh? Are you working solo?"
"No, a little Platinum like you shouldn't be able to reach the big shots above. So you have an organization!"
Cold sweat soaked Gu Xiaowei's back!
Oh no—Brother Nan knows?
How much does he know? How did he find out?!
She forced a laugh: "Brother Nan, what strange things are you talking about? Little Wei doesn't understand!"
Jiangnan grinned: "I just wanted to meet the person who can sell a single Small Ginseng for three Diamond-grade Spirit Beads as a scalper!"
Gu Xiaowei's pretty face turned pale: "Eh? There's... something like that?"
Jiangnan pulled out a Large Green Stick and placed it on the coffee table: "Drink it, then talk to me."
Gu Xiaowei shuddered. Based on her research on Brother Nan, everything he owned was bad news!
She said timidly, "Can I... not drink it?"
"If you don't, I'll kill you, okay?"
[From Gu Xiaowei's Resentment Value +555!]
Boss!
I think I'm finished today!
