Qin Fang had only 22 Life Points, definitely unable to withstand such a wild offense.

So he had to be extremely cautious.

"Didn't you notice on your way here?"

The girl casually asked back with a laugh, a pair of big eyes blinking, even seeming a bit intent on flirting with Qin Fang. Qin Fang believed that if he just beckoned with his finger, he'd easily pick up this chick.

The reason was simple, this time when Qin Fang went out, the clothes, shoes, and socks prepared for him were all personally selected by Tang Feifei and two other beauties. They all knew Qin Fang wasn't short of money, so they didn't plan on letting him wear street stall goods worth a few tens or a hundred yuan like before, but had upgraded to high-end clothing worth tens of thousands.

Despite their young ages, these girls had been around the block and developed quite the eye for value; they immediately noticed the expensive look of Qin Fang's attire.

Moreover, although Qin Fang wasn't the creamy-faced handsome type, he was decent-looking, and with a strong build, his charm was quite astonishing—it was just the type to pick up girls with.

"Notice what?"

Qin Fang was slightly startled, not quite understanding what the girl meant.

"Teacher Chen, ah, he's over there playing basketball!"

The girl quickly laughed, pointing to the basketball court surrounded by many girls in the distance.

"There were too many people over there, I really didn't notice..."

Qin Fang suddenly understood, realizing the person was right under his nose, yet he had passed by twice without noticing.

"Let's go over together then! It seems like you don't know Teacher Chen. I'll take you to him..."

This girl was quite straightforward, not hesitating to link her arm with Qin Fang's in front of the other girls, and pulled him towards the basketball court.

Qin Fang had wanted to keep a distance from the girl, but after thinking about it, he decided not to make a big deal of it. He was here just to gather information and there was no need to make himself too tense; doing so might draw Chen Liang's attention instead.

"You can tell? Hehe, actually, a friend of mine knows him. They said he's pretty nice, so I came to check it out..."

Qin Fang said cheerfully, and then started chatting casually with the girl.

And wouldn't you know, he actually managed to find some potentially useful information.

Chen Liang had an excellent reputation in the school; his teaching skills were high, and his relationships with the students were quite good. He was really gentle in nature, giving off a big brother vibe to these girls. Hence, most of the girls considered him to be their dream lover, nearly flawless, with many eagerly hoping to spend a spring night with him, though he was very restrained himself.

Basketball has always been the most popular sport on campus, with a strong fan base, and also one of the key methods to pick up girls.

If someone was good at basketball, even if they weren't that handsome, the difficulty of picking up a girl was much lower compared to those homebodies, not to mention the likelihood of landing a beautiful girl was quite high.

The crowd of onlookers was quite large, with women making up more than half. It was a pity it wasn't summer, or else there would definitely be a sea of pale, white legs.

With the strong intervention of a few girls beside him, Qin Fang finally got closer inside and could clearly see the players on the court.

"Look, handsome, that best-looking one is Teacher Chen..."

The girl beside him pointed at five or six men crowded together on the court, God knows which one she meant, but Qin Fang still managed to easily spot his target.

This wasn't strange. Among the ten people playing on the court, five or six were around twenty years old, obviously students from the school, while the rest were slightly older, mostly twenty-five or twenty-six and above.

Among them was one who wasn't particularly strong, but one look at him standing there exerted an inexplicable pressure on others; every movement of his body was incredibly coordinated, not inferior to that of a professional athlete.

As for being the most handsome, Qin Fang just curled his lip without voicing any dissent, essentially conceding the point by default.

Honestly, this Chen Liang really did have a bit of the charisma of the famous Hong Kong and Taiwanese actor Xiao Hei, just a tad paler in comparison.

Having identified his mark, Qin Fang ignored everyone else; they were just extras, with names not worth mentioning. He promptly used his Scouting Skill on the target.

In fact, whether he used the Scouting Skill or not, Qin Fang was already certain of one thing—Chen Liang was an incredibly formidable opponent.

Or rather, it was certain that Chen Liang was definitely stronger than him!

Soon, the reconnaissance results came back.

"Chen Liang, LV4, Teacher, Assassin, Evil Camp, Specialties: Tiger Fist, Dragon-Shaped Fist, Poison Making..."

The scouting skill Qin Fang had used this time was quite powerful, laying out some of Chen Liang's details, amidst which there were numerous pieces of information Qin Fang found very useful.

The mere fact of belonging to the Evil Camp was enough for Qin Fang to realize he had achieved his goal on this trip. There was a ninety percent likelihood that Chen Liang was the murderer, especially since Tiger Fist was listed among his special skills.

Since the time Qin Fang had gained the System, he had used his Scouting Skill on countless individuals, but those labeled as part of the Evil Camp could be counted on one hand.

One who had made a strong impression on Qin Fang was Hei San. Gu Tong had brought him in to kill Qin Fang, but before he could act, Qin Fang had confused him with a bottle of Raging Potion, causing him to accidentally run over and kill Gu Tong with his car.

There was also Pi San, whom Qin Fang had shot dead. Back then, Qin Fang's Scouting Skill hadn't been upgraded to Intermediate level, so he couldn't ascertain Pi San's alignment. However, judging by his actions, he most likely belonged to the Evil Camp.

To be labeled as part of the Evil Camp meant having over 100 Sin Points—the signature of a hardened criminal. Killing an innocent member of the Neutral Camp would add 100 Sin Points to one's tally, and killing someone from the Good Camp would double that.

Since Chen Liang had been determined to be from the Evil Camp, at least one innocent person must have died by his hand.

Of the two victims, there was no need to mention the official's second-generation scion. Though Qin Fang's knowledge of him was limited, he understood that person was probably not far from being Evil Camp himself.

However, Xue Lu was innocent, surely a member of the Neutral Camp. Her murderer would have immediately gained 100 Sin Points upon killing her, thus being categorized under the Evil Camp.

Indeed, Chen Liang was no simple man. In addition to being a teacher, already known to Qin Fang, his profile astonishingly included another occupation—Assassin!

Assassin, a term both foreign and familiar to Qin Fang.

Familiar because the term had been worn out in numerous Hong Kong movies, not to mention its indispensability in foreign action blockbusters.

Foreign because they belonged to works of fiction, and Qin Fang had never come into contact with one in real life, let alone imagined they truly existed.

Qin Fang wouldn't doubt the System's assessment of accuracy; it had repeatedly proven its correctness.

"Assassin...This is really going to be interesting," he pondered, letting the word "assassin" swirl through his mind, a playful expression tinted with a hint of a bitter smile appeared on his face.

He hadn't anticipated that Chen Liang was actually an assassin, which likely meant that numerous people had fallen by his hand, possibly not just Xue Lu and that second-generation official, but maybe many other innocents as well.

This information was incredibly useful for Qin Fang, yet, in reality, it was hardly good news.

Chen Liang was an assassin, and hence, surely adept at killing. This meant that Qin Fang would encounter significant difficulty in dealing with him. Already at a disadvantage in terms of personal strength when compared to Chen Liang, this added layer of complexity was causing Qin Fang a considerable headache. (To be continued.
