System: Card drawing in progress

When Chi Yu was invigilating, Shi Nianyi's life was also very exciting.

With the addition of Bai Yaoyao, her and Xi Lishen's luck did not improve. They continued to be unlucky, as if they had an accident-prone physique. Problems arose wherever they went.

This made Shi Nianyi almost doubt herself and wonder if she was a jinx.

"No, no, no. Even if there really is a jinx, it can't be me. It's not shown on the panel. So, it must be..."

Shi Nianyi looked Xi Lishen up and down. Well, he was handsome and looked quite normal when he was in his hometown. She must have been overthinking it.

In preparation for the upcoming journey and in order to avoid being on the wanted list, Shi Nianyi developed a method of "face changing", which is very different from disguise. She thought of an ancient ghost story that was very appropriate.

However, her "face-changing" method does not require the destruction of innocent lives.

"Just call it Painted Skin!"

Mainly a bit similar.

All you need to do is draw a picture, and then you can change into the appearance in the picture.

Of course, it is said that the Painted Skin uses a woman's skin to paint the face. Shi Nianyi's method is not so bloody, he just paints a picture.

For an artist like her, it couldn't be simpler.

In no time, an ordinary picture of a woman is ready. It would take a long time to draw a beautiful woman and it would be too eye-catching, so just keep it ordinary.

He painted two pictures in a row, one for Shi Nianyi and the other for Bai Yaoyao. As for Xi Lishen, he could paint it himself.

He stretched out his finger and touched the smiling woman in the portrait. The woman in the painting walked out, overlapped with Shi Nianyi, and then disappeared. She also changed her appearance.

She took out a small mirror, looked at her face and touched it gently. The face in the mirror was very pretty, so pretty that it was hard to describe how stunning it was.

“There are absolutely no flaws.”

As expected of me.

"Hurry up and get it done. Once you're done, we'll go into the city for some resupply. We don't have much seasoning left, and some consumables are gone. We need to restock them. It's a good opportunity for us to go stroll around the city, have some fun, rest for a few days, and then set off again."

"Okay." x2

Bai Yaoyao has the face of a girl next door, and Xi Lishen has the face of an ordinary boy, the kind that wouldn't stand out if seen on the street.

"Apprentice, I have liked the face of the male protagonist in a game for a long time. How about I draw it one day and you wear it for me?"

What changes is not only the face but also the figure and clothes.

Does she now have her own Nuan Nuan?

Thinking of this, Bai Yaoyao looked at Xi Lishen with sparkling eyes. She pushed Xi Lishen aside:

"If you like, teacher, I can do it too."

The three of them played and joked around, and became familiar with each other, far less distant than when they first met.

The city they visited is called Hsinchu City. Bamboo is the most abundant plant in the city and the local people love bamboo very much. The most famous thing about bamboo is its various bamboo-related delicacies.

At this time, there are no fresh bamboo shoots, but there are a lot of dried bamboo shoots, which taste very good, especially when fried with monster meat. The sour bamboo shoots are also delicious, including bamboo shoot cold dishes.

The three of them ate as they went along, their bellies filling up.

I found a hotel and stayed there.

After resting for a whole day and night, I got up and looked for a place to eat. I found a snack street and bought food while walking.

I saw a large group of people gathered together, and I didn't know what was going on.

Bai Yaoyao was curious and pulled Shi Nianyi to see it, while Xi Lishen followed behind helplessly.

The three of them struggled hard and finally squeezed to the front, occupying the best spot to watch the show.

Also saw what happened.

There were two children, a boy and a girl, who looked to be only eight or nine years old. Their clothes were a little old but very clean, and their faces and bodies were very clean.

They don't look wealthy, but they have a family that loves them.

They hugged a middle-aged man's thighs and cried very sadly. Listening to the discussions of the people around them, Shi Nianyi and the other two also figured out the whole story.

The two have an older sister. Their parents died unexpectedly, and it was their sister who raised them until they grew up and have not yet been sent to an orphanage.

The middle-aged man said he would sponsor the three of them to go to school, and the money was indeed transferred. However, the elder sister who went to school disappeared, and they couldn't find her.

The two children knew that something must have happened to their sister. Even when things were so difficult in the past, their sister had not abandoned them. Now that life was getting better, their sister would not leave them without saying a word.

After going through a lot of trouble to investigate everywhere and being met with countless cold stares, they finally met a kind-hearted person who sponsored their studies, just like a blind cat catching a dead mouse.

They went to their sister's school but didn't see her at all. Even if they were slow-witted, they knew that there was something wrong with the kind-hearted person. It was impossible for them to let go of him/her once they met him/her. This was the only way for them to find their sister.

Some people around picked up their phones and started recording videos.

Bai Yaoyao's expression suddenly changed after knowing the whole story, and she looked at the middle-aged man with a hint of murderous intent.

Shi Nianyi and Xi Lishen both noticed it.

Shi Nianyi pulled Bai Yaoyao's hand, signaling her to calm down and wait until the investigation was clear before deciding on the next steps. Otherwise, they would alert the enemy and it would be extremely difficult to continue the investigation. It was even more likely that the clues would be cut off and the person behind the scenes would not be found.

Impulse is the devil.

Well, back then, she was just an ordinary teacher, but now her proficiency in investigating cases seems to be no less than that of the old sheriff, and is almost the same as that of the people in the Inspection Department.

Time is really scary, and so are habits. How could things become like this in just a few months?

She was a little confused.

Bai Yaoyao understood and took Shi Nianyi's hint to heart.

He pulled Shi Nianyi's hand with his backhand, then let go.

It means she knows.

The middle-aged man's patience has been worn out, and he is starting to get impatient and is not careful about the severity of his actions.

Some people who couldn't stand it said a few words, but were retorted back by the middle-aged man.

Just when someone couldn't help but roll up his sleeves and prepare to have a good talk, a woman squeezed in. She looked to be in her thirties or forties, with traces of time on her face, ordinary clothes, and calluses on her hands from work.

He walked up to them, pulled up the two children, and cursed:

"You two stupid kids, I've already told you that your uncle has something urgent to do. Don't lie to him and ask him to stay and play with you. Really, I bought you so much food and you're still not satisfied. Your uncle isn't a rich man and can't afford an expensive cell phone."

The two children were dazed for a moment before they were forcibly pulled apart and stood upright.

"Who are you? We don't know you."

The woman's face changed, she raised her hand, ready to hit him, saying:

"Well, you guys don't even recognize your mother? It's true that I'm useless and can't afford a cell phone or expensive food, but I never taught you to lie!"
