I've Become the King of Villains in the Game

Chapter 312: Chapter The Dark Knight’s Grave Was Desecrated_2
 

Chen Lun was very satisfied with the armband and could accept the price, at worst letting it dine with the Blood Poem Ring.

It was just like feeding one more big fat pig each time.

Mr. Jack wouldn’t mind that bit of money.

After several hours, the train stopped near a small town and a batch of passengers boarded.

Soon, a girl sat down opposite Chen Lun.

She was a young girl in a light yellow dress with a sun hat, appearing to be only around eighteen or nineteen years old.

As the train continued, she couldn’t help her curiosity and asked:

“Sir, are you traveling?”

Ever since she boarded, she had been stealing glances at the young gentleman across from her.

Although the girl had seen many outstanding men, this one was clearly special… His demeanor and looks made her heart race.

“Hmm… yes, traveling,”

Chen Lun shifted his gaze from the passing scenery outside the train to the girl and smiled slightly.

“Miss, how did you figure that out?”

The girl paused, shaken by his smile.

What a handsome face it was, the light from the train window shining on the side of his face like a piece of art.

“Sir, you… don’t have any extra luggage and you seem quite at ease, surely a noble out on a trip.”

Chen Lun neither confirmed nor denied and didn’t explicitly state his identity; he simply said:

“Are you traveling as well?”

“Oh, no, not really… I’m headed for an internship,”

the girl blushed, feeling shy but eager to chat with the gentleman a bit more.

“I just graduated from a medical college in a small town, and now I’ve been accepted at a hospital in Sunflower City… as an intern nurse.”

The girl took a deep breath, hugged her bag, and mustering up her courage, extended a hand.

“My name is Lisa, it’s a pleasure to meet you, sir.”

“Hello, Lisa.”

Chen Lun politely extended his hand to lightly touch her fingertips, just briefly.

He then casually mentioned his own name:

“Jack.”

“Mr. Jack…?”

Lisa giggled, revealing her braces, and then realizing it was neither ladylike nor attractive, she embarrassedly turned her head away.

For a moment,

she didn’t hear Mr. Jack say anything, so she glanced sideways at him and noticed he had already turned to look at the view outside the window.

Lisa felt a bit disappointed.

It seemed that the handsome gentleman wasn’t particularly interested in her.

She opened her mouth a few times, but lost the courage to speak and could only feel inwardly distressed.

Half a day later.

Approaching four o’clock in the afternoon, the train came to a stop at the Sunflower City train station.

The conductor was ringing the copper bell, walking down the aisle reminding passengers to disembark.

When Lisa, standing on tiptoe to reach her luggage, lost her balance and the luggage fell, she cried out. But in the next second, a fair and slender hand easily caught the luggage and handed it to her.

“Be careful, Miss Lisa.”

“Ah… Thank you, Mr. Jack.”

She looked up at the man, whose face still wore that affable and polite smile, and her heart raced so fast that in that moment she even felt like she had fallen in love.

She stared blankly at him,

until Chen Lun cleared his throat and said:

“Miss Lisa? We should get off… I need to get off as well.”@@novelbin@@

She snapped back to reality, her face turning extremely red.

“I’m sorry, sir.”

She disembarked in a daze, holding her luggage, and only then did she realize,

“Mr. Jack is also getting off at Sunflower City!”

Lisa looked around, searching for Mr. Jack’s figure, but to no avail. Intending to exchange contact information with him, she couldn’t help feeling a sense of emptiness.

She sighed deeply, clearly disheartened.

Chen Lun glanced at the girl from not far away, shook his head slightly, and walked away.

With his ascension, he increasingly understood his own Charm, how impactful it was on ordinary people, especially women, who were easily attracted to him… whether it was good or bad was hard to say clearly.

‘Perhaps Transcendents of the Constellation Faction who reach Mid Sequence also have such troubles…’

Chen Lun thought.

He pulled down his hat brim, left the train station like an ordinary person, and headed straight for Sunflower Garden; his destination, “Dawn Cemetery,” was there.

But when Chen Lun arrived at the cemetery, he found many carriages parked there, a crowd gathered at the entrance as if something had happened.

“The Tomb Robbers are too brazen! They must be captured and brought to justice!”

“Yes! The deceased should rest in peace, this is a Desecration!”

“The Tomb Guardian just happened to have a death in the family and left temporarily, which gave the robbers a chance. How can this be a coincidence?!”

“Moreover, the identity information of the grave that was robbed has not yet been determined, something seems off here.”

People were talking animatedly, among them bystanders, reporters, and cemetery officials.

Chen Lun suddenly had a bad feeling.

‘Could it be that Mr. Bales’ coffin has been stolen?’

His brow furrowed slightly, he lowered his head and slipped past the crowd on the side, intending to enter the cemetery.

But two policemen at the entrance stopped him.

“I’m sorry, sir, but you can’t enter at the moment, we’re still investigating the clues left at the scene…”

“Shelter special agent, Qiaoke.”

Chen Lun took out a playing card, flashed it before their eyes, and improvised an identity.
