Chapter 100: Bankruptcy Card

After the three left on shock, Lee Minho stood in front of his villa his chin.

"System, I always feel that they seem to have misunderstood something."

{Misunderstanding? No, there is nothing wrong with what the host said just now!}

The system still felt that its host was modest.

"Nevermind."

Forget it, if you can't figure it out, don't think about it, Lee Minho changed the subject and said.

"System, wake me up at six o'clock tomorrow."

{Host, this system is a system to show off your wealth, not your personal alarm clock. But what are you doing up so early?}

These days Lee Minho didn't get up until after seven o'clock recently.

Since he didn't have a part-time job, Lee Minho usually sleeps until after seven o'clock.

"Running." Lee Minho said with a smile.

"Life lies in exercise."

{But your hand injury hasn't healed yet, the doctor won't let you exercise.}

The system is afraid that the host's injury will worsen.

Hearing this, Lee Minho retorted.

"I injured my hand, not my foot. Running doesn't affect it."

He then added on.

"And I haven't exercised recently, and I feel my whole body is stiff. If the body is stiff, the brain will also be stiff. Once the brain is stiff, it will definitely affect my contest."

{Fine, the system will wake you up at six o'clock tomorrow.}

The system absolutely does not allow anything that will affect Lee Minho's participation in the competition.

This competition is about upgrading.

Therefore, the system pays special attention to it.

"Okay, let's do a lottery draw first. But the system needs to change the way you draw the lottery. My right hand is injured. You can't take advantage of others."

Lee Minho gently patted his injured hand with his left hand, he can't throw a dart in his current state.

{This system will never do things that take advantage of other people.}

The original big turntable was replaced by more than a dozen boxes of different sizes, floating in mid-air.

{AIl lottery rewards have been randomly placed into boxes. Host, please choose one of the boxes.}

Lee Minho took a closer look and found that some boxes were only the size of a palm, and some boxes were more than one meter high.

The difference is a bit big.

However, according to the character of the system, if it is said to be random. It is not sure that the bigger the box, the bigger the reward.

This really depends on luck, the kind whose strength is not at all the same.

Also at this time, the safest way is to choose the middle, neither big nor small.

But Lee Minho did the opposite. He walked up to the smallest box and said to the system.

"I choose this."

Floating in mid-air, the system like a small white fur ball widened its soybean-sized eyes, and said in astonishment.

{Are you really sure about your choice?}

"I'm sure."

{Host, this system will give you another chance.}

"Then I'll choose this."

{Congratulations to the host, you have won 3 bankrupt cards.}

"Bankruptcy card?"

Lee Minho held three black cards that has the same size as poker cards, and saw that the front and back of the cards were black.

The card was very simple, with large character [Bankruptcy Card] writen on the front.

"What is this? Why didn't you even explain it?"

Lee Minho saw that the system's expression was not right just now, and thought he had won some kind of grand prize. It turned out to be 3 cards?

The system raised his forehead and said.

{This bankruptcy card is just like the name on it. As long as the host holds the bankruptcy card and calls out the name of a certain person or a company group, the other party can be bankrupted.}

"Is there such a thing? Then this bankruptcy is too big."

With this card, as long as you call out the other party's name, you can make the other party bankrupt.

The system curled its lips and said.

{This card has success rate}

"Success Rate?" Lee Minho blinked.

{That's right. It have a 50% success rate.}

"What? Only half the success rate?"

Lee Minho looked at the three cards in his hand and muttered.

"That's too bad. It's still a gamble of luck!"

A 50% chance is better than nothing.

The next day, at six o'clock in the morning.

Just after dawn, Lee Minho was woken up by the system's punctual alarm clock.

Immediately aftervwards, Lee Minho quickly brushed his teeth and washed his face, and then changed into a set of sportswear.

Sportswear is one of the ten sets of clothing rewarded by the system.

In addition to sportswear, there are also sports watches and sports shoes.

Regardless of the simplicity of the outwear of Lee Minho's body, from head to toe, it is worth 10 million dollars.

As soon as Lee Minho went out, he didn't run directly to Villa No. 3. Instead, he went in the opposite direction and slowly walked around to the road behind Villa No. 3.

Although the single family villa area and the townhouse area are connected, people in the townhouse area rarely come to the single family villa area.

That's why when Lee Minho went out for a run, he really didn't see anyone else on the road except for the patrolling security personnel.

Lee Minho chose a path, and after running for a few minutes, he came to the path behind Villa No. 3.

When he reached the path, Lee Minho deliberately slowed down. Then, carefully observe the second floor of villa No. 3, a room on the far left.

Seeing that the curtains of the floor to ceiling windows in that room were still drawn, Lee Minho immediately sped up.

After running for about ten minutes, Lee Minho detoured back to the path behind villa No. 3.

Doing the same as before, he slowed down again, and then pretended to be inadvertent, and looked at the room in villa No. 3.

Just in time to see the curtains of that room being pulled open, a black figure opened the glass door of the floor to ceiling window, and then walked out of the balcony.

As soon as he saw that figure, Lee Minho immediately looked away.

He stopped pretending to be resting, he then picked up the towel hanging arournd his neck with his left hand, and wiped the sweat from his forehead. Then run forward slowly.

It can be said that Han Seungwoo didn't sleep much all night.

When he came back, he kept thinking about the game between him and Lee Minho.

After replaying the game, he found that Lee Minho had several moves, which were unfathomable.

The more you look at it, the more shocking it becomes.

But there are a few moves, and the play is very immature. If it wasn't for the prior foreshadowing before, it might have been eaten already.

It is precisely because of this complexity that Han Seungwoo believes that Lee Minho really has a peerless chess talent.

His immature chess games are just rusty because he hasn't played chess for too long.

As long as he continues to play chess, he can definitely return to his peak state.

Han Seungwoo really wanted to see what Lee Minho looked like at his peak.

Losing a game of chess not only didn't make him discouraged, but made him even more motivated.

All night, he was thinking about Lee Minho and the chess game he had with him.

After finally falling asleep, it was almost dawn.

Immediately afterwards, Han Seungwoo didn't go back to sleep, he got up according to his own routine.

Although he didn't sleep much all night, Han Seungwoo was still full of energy.

As soon as he opened the curtains and walked out of the balcony, Han Seungwoo suddenly froze.

The balcony of his room faces the backyard of the villa and behind his villa, there is a path leading to other places.

At this time, a white figure was standing on that path.

Because there are only some flowers and plants planted on the trail, there are no trees.

Coupled with the fact that the distance is not far away, that figure lingered very special to his memory.

Han Seungwoo immediately recognized the person standing on the path wiping his sweat as Lee Minho.

While he was staring, the figure ran together again, and it didn't take long before he left his sight.

Han Seungwoo immediately returned to the room and closed the glass door.

Immediately afterwards, he brushed his teeth and washed his face, and changed into black sportswear and sneakers at an extremely fast speed.

After Lee Minho left the path of Villa No. 3, he found a place not far from it where he could be seen as long as he came out of Villa No. 1, and sat down.

After waiting for about ten minutes, Lee Minho asked the system in his mind.

"System, has Han Seungwoo left the house yet?"

The system wondered.

{He's out, it's almost at the door. Host, this systemn is a system for showing off wealth, not a surveillance system.}

Lee Minho stood up and said.

"I didn't ask you to monitor him, I just asked you to see if he came out."

{Isn't that the same thing? If you want me to monitor him, you need to pay me.}

Just now Lee Minho reached a deal with the system, asking the system to go to the door of Han Seungwoo's house to see what he is doing.

Of course, at first Lee Minho just said that if Han Seungwoo came out, tell him.

After waiting for a few minutes, there was still no movement.

Lee Minho anxiously asked the system to run into Han Seungwoo's house to check the situation.

For that to happen Lee Minho took out his trump card,

"Another 100 dollars."

The system immediately smiled brightly after taking the money.

{Deal. Host, you run up, he came out."

For a system whose funds have shrunk a lot after hiring bodyguards, 100 dollars is still small but still something should be grateful about.

Lee Minho secretly smiled, knowing what going on to the system's mind.
