Chapter 62 Your money is fake.
Texas Chainsaw Killer: What are you saying, chirp...li gu...lu? Show me a picture!
Chemist Lao Bai: @Lu Yiming, don't dispose of the body this time. I'll teach you how to use sodium hydroxide and ammonium nitrate, soak them in a plastic bucket, and even the bones will turn into water.
Educator Jigsaw: You just killed them? You should give them a chance to be reborn. You could lock their hands, put them in a water tank, and tell them the key is in their stomachs. If they don't open their stomachs within five minutes, the overhead wires will fall down.
Outlaw Zhang San: You've got two more lives on your hands? The police officer who catches you will probably get promoted several ranks. You better not get caught.
Professor Moriarty: @Lu Yiming, oh? How did you find them? Did they come out on their own?
Lu Yiming chuckled, feeling a little embarrassed as he thought about what he was about to say.
It's been a while since I used this trick; I wonder if they'll still fall for it.
Lu Yiming: You think you can get something for free? Dream on. This is the era of paid knowledge; what good stuff can you get without spending money? If you want to see my crime scene, offer me a red envelope in exchange.
Che Guevara: Why are you trying to scam red envelopes again?
The Seven Deadly Sins Killer: What a greedy guy.
Food critic Hannibal: @Lu Yiming I've already sent you a red envelope, don't be too greedy.
KID: Everyone, could you keep an eye out for me? Are there any gemstones that shed tears under moonlight?
Harley Quinn: Hurry up! Send me some gory stuff! I'm being ripped off locked up in this godforsaken place! I can't do anything bad even though we haven't found the person!
The sentence flashed by, and before Lu Yiming could even see it clearly, it was instantly retracted.
The administrator "Chemist Lao Bai" has retracted a message.
Lu Yiming blinked. What did he just say?
Before I could even think about it, a big red envelope popped up on the screen.
The cover is particularly eye-catching: Old White is wearing a yellow hazmat suit and holding a flask that emits blue light, with a bunch of complex chemical formulas in the background.
[The red envelope assistant has automatically grabbed a red envelope for you]
Congratulations on successfully securing the "Blue Phantom (Old White's Exclusive Ability) for 6 Hours"!
The purest blue I've ever seen was neither warm nor benevolent, yet it was priceless.
"Nice!"
Lu Yiming waved his arm happily.
Wait, you wouldn't happen to have Old White's... skill, would you? That's not something you can learn.
What if we attract DEA?
It's true that you can make a lot of money... but it's too dangerous.
As a Chinese person at heart, Lu Yiming still felt disgusted by this kind of thing.
But he felt that with some knowledge of chemistry and a good grasp of math, physics, and chemistry, he could go anywhere in the world without fear.
Chemist Lao Bai: Hahaha @Lu Yiming, how are you? Once you learn this skill, as long as you don't get caught, you'll be set for life.
Chemist Lao Bai: Remember, keeping the temperature at 150 degrees is key; don't overheat it.
Lu Yiming's lips twitched.
After thinking about it, I realized that it could still be useful in cases involving pharmaceuticals.
Jack the Ripper: @Old White, do you still have the recipe from last time? My friend hasn't been feeling well lately...
Che Guevara: @Lu Yiming No, why is it always you who gets to steal it? Can you please turn off your cheat?
Outlaw Zhang San: @Lu Yiming's friendly reminder: Never sell the finished product in China.
Lu Yiming was somewhat depressed.
Actually, he would prefer a more violent skill, such as one related to firearms or hand-to-hand combat.
Lu Yiming: @Harley Quinn, do you still have that "Explosive Carnival" from last time?
Harley Quinn: [○・`Д´・○] You have the nerve to bring that up?! Last time you tricked me! This time, even if you kill me, I won't give it to you! Humph! ( ̄^ ̄)ゞ
Lu Yiming shook his head.
This silly girl is getting harder and harder to fool; looks like I'll have to change my approach from now on.
Professor Moriarty: @Lu Yiming, hurry up and show us your new work.
Well, even though I didn't get any combat skills, having Old White's chemical knowledge is still a good thing.
He sent out photos of the two corpses and a large bag of US dollars from his phone.
Lu Yiming: Two professional assassins dared to impersonate me. I killed them and stole their commission, making over four million US dollars.
The message caused an instant uproar in the group.
Jack the Ripper: @FoodieHannibal Come out and take a look, there's some fresh ingredients. These two look pretty plump.
Food critic Hannibal: @Jack the Ripper, do you think I eat everything? A butcher like you who only knows brute force, I wouldn't eat meat that's rotten.
Outlaw Zhang San: This is over four million US dollars, which is tens of millions of Chinese yuan. But how are you going to spend it? How about you take it to a few antique shops to have it laundered?
Professor Moriarty: Murder and robbery, you're making me more and more satisfied.
……
Lu Yiming grinned from ear to ear as he looked at the screen full of praise.
The feeling of being recognized by a group of perverted demons is actually quite enjoyable.
Just then, a diver surfaced.
The profile picture is a mottled oil painting, and the nickname is "Painter".
Painter: @Lu Yiming, you've been scammed. All the US dollars you have are fake.
Lu Yiming's heart skipped a beat.
Huh? What what what?
My money is fake?
"That can't be!" He subconsciously pulled out a large bill and examined it closely against the sun.
The watermark on the Franklin is clear.
The artist explained: Real US banknotes will show randomly distributed red and blue fluorescent fibers under ultraviolet light. Furthermore, the color-changing ink in your shipment has an incorrect color spectrum.
Painter: What you have is nowhere near as good as what I can do.
Che Guevara: Hahahaha! That's hilarious! You finally got what you deserved! You actually got scammed by counterfeit money!
Outlaw Zhang San: @Lu Yiming, my condolences. Is this what karma is? You stole someone else's money, only to find out it was worthless paper.
Lu Yiming felt uneasy and somewhat resentful.
The main problem was that he simply couldn't accept that the four million he had just received had become worthless in the blink of an eye.
Lu Yiming: I don't believe it! This can't be fake!
As soon as he finished speaking, another red envelope popped up on the screen.
The cover features a flurry of US dollar bills.
[Red Envelope Assistant will automatically grab red envelopes for you]
Congratulations on successfully obtaining the "Peerless Counterfeit Money" (Painter's Exclusive Skill) for 6 hours!
[Anything done to perfection becomes art; with enough dedication, even counterfeits can be made better than the real thing.]
Painter: If you don't believe me, you can use it to authenticate it.
Lu Yiming froze on the spot.
Is this the painter who can create a 1:1 replica of a super-sized US dollar bill?
"You handle the color-changing ink! You handle the anti-counterfeiting thread! I'll take care of your sister-in-law!"
This guy's a master counterfeiter; if he says it's fake...
There's no need to use any skill to identify it; the money is definitely fake.
Lu Yiming looked at the travel bag filled with "Franklin" at his feet with a pain in his heart.
I felt a surge of blood rushing to my chest, and I almost passed out.
"Gu Qiu! You old bastard!!!"
"No wonder you didn't hesitate to pay! It was all counterfeit money!!"
Then he remembered that he had promised the butcher he would use the money to bribe other people...
"How can you bribe someone with a fake one...?"
