Chapter 5

If it weren't for Li Feifei standing right there, Zhang Jian would have burst out laughing. It wasn't easy, not easy at all. After three months, he had only completed one task, and the money he lost almost made him want to spit blood.

After Li Feifei finished her call, she saw Zhang Jian grinning at her.

"What are you smiling about?"

"Huh? Oh, nothing, just can't help but be happy when I see a beautiful woman," Zhang Jian said casually, revealing his true thoughts.

"Show some respect. I'll thank you for helping me catch the thief, but don't get any other ideas," Li Feifei said with a frown.

Hearing this, Zhang Jian was quite unhappy. I helped you, and you talk to me like this? Have you ever said 'thank you' to me since we started?

"Don't worry, I have no other thoughts. I'll leave this person to you. I have to go, I'm in a hurry. Goodbye, no, I mean, never see you again."

Zhang Jian waved his hand and turned to leave, leaving Li Feifei standing there in shock.

It wasn't until Zhang Jian disappeared around the corner that Li Feifei stomped her foot in anger. No one had ever spoken to her like that before. This guy...

Taking the bus back home, Zhang Jian couldn't wait to start the lottery. He originally planned to save up a few times before drawing, to reduce the chances of getting a blank. But after three months, he had only completed one task, and he was only rewarded with one lottery draw. How could he bear to wait?

He took off the watch on his left hand that covered the Spirit Gourd mark, touched it, and silently thought about entering the Spirit Gourd space.

"Welcome, host, to the Spirit Gourd space. Do you want to consult or draw a lottery?"

"Draw a lottery."

"Host currently has one lottery draw. Do you want to start now?"

Zhang Jian looked at the items in the reward slot: a small orange person, ten thousand yuan, an ancient mirror with embedded gems, a golden pill, a large spider, a blank slot, and a new small book.

Hmm, last time he drew a small red person, who gave him an incredibly powerful ability—super strength. The certificate he drew was also useful. From this, it seemed that the small orange person, the new book, and the ancient mirror were the most suitable for him. The ten thousand yuan, the spider, and the pill could wait. He hoped he wouldn't draw a blank.

"Start. Stop." This time, he didn't need to spin it himself; he just shouted "start" and it automatically stopped. The effect was the same anyway.

The gourd's mouth passed over the small book, skipped the blank slot, and stopped on the ancient mirror.

Yes! Zhang Jian clenched his fist and waved it. Great, I drew a treasure. If it's an antique, I'll be rich.

"Host has drawn a magic mirror. Do you want to claim it now?"

A magic mirror? Is this the legendary magical artifact? But what can it do? It's not like it's just going to tell you who is prettier than you, like in Snow White. If that were the case, he'd be furious. With his looks, there must be at least 99 million people who are more handsome than him.

"What can the magic mirror do?" Zhang Jian asked.

"The magic mirror can show anything the host wants to see, as long as it exists. However, it can only show the present, not the past or the future."

Damn, so powerful, it can show anything? Like women's bathrooms, women's changing rooms...

Thinking about it, Zhang Jian felt a reaction down below. It had been a long time since he had released, so a little reaction was normal. Hmm, maybe it's time to find a girlfriend.

"How do I use it?"

"Host just needs to tell the magic mirror what you want to see, and it will show it, as long as it can be seen with the naked eye."

"Quick, give it to me, I want to try it."

Zhang Jian came out of the Spirit Gourd space and waved his left hand, producing an ancient mirror. The mirror was made of an unknown material, with a very smooth surface that didn't reflect. The back was embedded with many gems, but he didn't know what they were for.

Since it's a magical artifact, it can't be sold for money, which is a bit of a pity. But how can he make money with this magic mirror?

Private detective! No matter who he wants to tail, he can see everything they do from home, as long as he knows their name. If someone's elderly relative or pet goes missing, he can easily find them, and the reward would be substantial.

Journalist, he could expose anyone's secrets, knowing their entire schedule and leaving them with no privacy.

But being a private detective isn't easy. First, the detective agency needs to be well-known, but the detective himself can't be famous, so he can take on more cases without being discovered or even sought after for revenge. Also, the procedures are difficult to handle, and the company is hard to register. It seems he can't do it.

So, should he join an existing detective agency and work as a freelance part-time detective? It's much better than being a paparazzi, and he won't have to take on those infidelity cases.

Hmm, when applying for a part-time job, he should test the magic mirror first to make sure it works. What should he see? Hmm, let's see what Li Feifei is doing.

"Magic mirror, magic mirror, show me what Li Feifei is doing."

After a moment, the mirror showed a scene that almost made Zhang Jian's nose bleed. He quickly turned away, but his heart was struggling, just one look, just one look!

The scene showed steam, tiles, a shower curtain, a faucet, and a bathtub. This was Li Feifei's bathroom, and she had just arrived home, taking a hot bath to relax.

Fortunately, she was in the bathtub, or Zhang Jian would have definitely had a nosebleed if she were in the shower.

Hearing the sound of slippers, Zhang Jian knew Li Feifei had finished. The magic mirror not only showed images but also had sound, which was incredibly powerful.

Li Feifei took off her bulky down jacket and wore a bathrobe, which made her figure look quite good. Unfortunately, her temper was a bit foul. Otherwise, she would be a great girlfriend.

"Achoo!" Li Feifei sneezed and rubbed her nose. The room was 22 degrees, and she wasn't cold in her bathrobe. Why did she sneeze? Maybe someone was thinking about her?

Zhang Jian reluctantly turned off the magic mirror. He could even see the TV in Li Feifei's house clearly, so there was no need to test it further.

Hmm, no, he should do another test, this time for distance. Where should he choose? How about a Japanese adult film studio? It's far enough, the picture is clear, and it's like being there in person!

He searched for the name of a popular actress online and asked the magic mirror to show the scene.

Damn, she's really working. It's so powerful, working so late. The time difference with Ice City isn't much, so she must be working overtime.

She's really hardworking. These male actors are really in the way, always blocking the view. Fortunately, his roommate was on a business trip, or he would have heard and come over with a portable hard drive, which would be hard to explain.

Tomorrow, he could use this to watch the latest movies and save on movie tickets. Since he was alone, no one would go to the cinema with him, so why not just watch at home? Next week, he would start looking for part-time work to see if this job of finding people and lost items was feasible.

Zhang Jian put the magic mirror back into the Spirit Gourd space. If someone else took it or he lost it, it would be a huge loss. With a dreamy smile, Zhang Jian fell asleep.
