Am I really hallucinating?

Chapter 38: Money Burning Magic
"A magic trick that burns money." Zheng Fan replied with a smile.

Lin Yilin took out a bank card from her small bag and placed it on the table: "But Mr. Illusion, can you touch the bank card?"

Just as she finished speaking, she saw Zheng Fan pick up the bank card normally, and her eyes widened immediately: "Huh?"

"Let's not talk about the magic behind this, this alone is amazing..." Lin Yilin said, and soon realized the reason: "Property-related ability, Mr. Illusion, have you really completed that ability?"

Zheng Fan had burned several singularities before, but in the end he only created the ability of "robbery".

But Zheng Fan’s current actions made Lin Yilin believe that Zheng Fan has already completed this ability.

"Tsk, binary sister, why are you so smart?" Zheng Fan dragged the corner of the bank card with one finger and let it rotate on his fingertips. After burning the big singularity that exploded from the bloody chaebol, he can now touch things related to money and wealth in the concept, but it is not completely stable at present.

"I just saw it at a glance." Lin Yilin said honestly, "But I'm still very curious about what Mr. Illusion can show, because different property-related abilities have different manifestations."

"Are you trying to make me happy?"

"I was serious."

"Okay, okay, then watch it."

Zheng Fan turned around, and his black clothes suddenly turned into a white suit. He wore a top hat and even a flashy cape, with a silver monocle hanging in his right eye.

"Ah, Kaito Kid." Lin Yilin immediately identified the character because that was also the story Zheng Fan had told her.

"Hehe, get ready to witness a miracle!"

As he spoke, Zheng Fan smiled slightly and swiped his bank card in the air.

Then, something shocking happened.

Nothing happened.

Zheng Fan:?
He was stunned for a moment, and swiped a few more times in disbelief, but still nothing happened.

"…What's going on? Something is wrong. My effect has been invalidated? Who can link me? Am I not the all-conquering big brother?" Zheng Fan looked at the bank card in his hand with some embarrassment, and said something meaningless to cover it up.

"Is it because there is no money in that card?" Lin Yilin asked.

Zheng Fan looked at her suddenly, his eyes widened, and asked silently.

Then it quickly became audible: "Why the hell did you give me a bank card with no money in it?!"

"Mr. Illusion didn't say I needed a bank card with money in it. Seeing that you had ill intentions on your face, I picked one with no money in it..." Lin Yilin had a reason.

Zheng Fan almost reflected on himself and realized that he had not explained himself clearly.

As a result, Lin Yilin turned her head away while speaking, with her cheeks slightly puffed up.

"You guessed what I was going to do so you're playing a trick on me!" Zheng Fan was shocked. He really had misjudged the binary girl.

Lin Yilin turned her head, still expressionless: "No."

Seeing that Zheng Fan was about to get angry, she quickly handed over a black card: "This one has money."

Zheng Fan, who was about to say something, narrowed his eyes and took the card, looking at it suspiciously, although he couldn't see anything: "Is there really money on this card?"

"This is a black card from the Central Bank of Dadu. Of course it has money."

Zheng Fan coughed twice to clear his throat, and the sense of ritual that had been brewing was gone. Helplessly, he waved his hand and made a card swiping gesture.

As the sound of cashier was heard out of nowhere, a noble black and gold coffee machine suddenly appeared on Lin Yilin's desk.

Lin Yilin: "...So what is this?"

"It's a magic trick. Every component of this coffee machine is made of the best materials, even though I don't recognize them. It can be called the king of coffee machines. The luster shows its uniqueness." Zheng Fan patted the coffee machine expressionlessly.

As he spoke, he took out a can of coffee beans from somewhere and said, "Such a good coffee machine must be paired with top-quality coffee beans to make the most exquisite coffee. We can't let it down."

After hearing this, Lin Yilin blinked in confusion: "And then?"

"What then?"

"It doesn't have any hidden special effects? Like turning into a super robot, or growing machine guns and cannons to kill all creatures within range, and this bag of coffee beans is actually hidden ammunition... or something like that?"

"Girl, you must be hallucinating. This is a coffee machine, and these are just coffee beans. How about I make some coffee for you to try?" Zheng Fan raised his eyebrows slightly.

Do you want to listen to what you are saying, you hallucination?
"If this is the coffee machine and the coffee beans, why are you touching them?"

"Because this is what I 'bought' with your money. It's a product of my ability, that is, a fantasy." Zheng Fan said proudly with his chin raised.

"So what is the effect of this fantasy?"

"Make coffee, what's the problem? Isn't toast just something that bites people and can be provided in unlimited quantities by flour?"

"Ouch!" Toast in the corner responded in unison. Lin Yilin held his forehead and was silent for a moment: "How much did it cost?"

"Seventy thousand. Although my ability seems to have a premium, it's actually quite cheap."

"…but the office already has a second-hand hand-cranked coffee machine worth two hundred yuan, and there are still two bags of cheap coffee beans given by Aunt Chen that have not been used up." Lin Yilin opened her eyes wide.

"I know." Zheng Fan crossed his arms across his chest, "Why else would I change into this?"

Lin Yilin held her head in her hands and said obediently, "I'm sorry, I was wrong. I shouldn't have played tricks on you, Mr. Illusion. Can you return this thing?"

"Well... no." Zheng Fan hesitated for a moment and looked up, "There is no option for refund in the world of illusion. And it's not completely useless. With this ability, I can drink coffee."

Lin Yilin took a deep breath.

Although she has a lot of money, she is still used to spending it sparingly unless it is necessary.

This money didn't come from the wind. Even if she made money easily, it would be too much to spend 70,000 yuan on a useless coffee machine and coffee beans.

Zheng Fan jumped and carried the coffee machine to the other side of the office where the second-hand coffee machine was placed. "Okay, Binary girl, come and move this antique away. The throne will belong to this Royal Coffee Machine in the future."

He even gave the coffee machine a name.

A coffee machine worth 70,000 yuan!

Lin Yilin exhaled.

admit.

The second-hand coffee machine was replaced by the black and gold royal coffee machine. Lin Yilin was going to sell the second-hand coffee machine that had accompanied her for quite some time to her landlord Aunt Chen.

Then the two of them used it to make coffee. Of course, Zheng Fan also "bought" the cup with a credit card. This time he didn't do anything fancy. It was similar to Lin Yilin's mug, but with a pure black background dotted with two gray and white dots.

Lin Yilin took a sip with melancholy.

"Although the taste is better but..." the girl still felt a little painful.

"Ah~, so refreshing." Zheng Fan drank the hot coffee and made a refreshed sound.

Lin Yilin looked at the black card on the table and held the cup and said, "So now Mr. Illusion can exchange items out of thin air by spending money?"

"Yes, except for living things, most of the things I can think of are acceptable." Zheng Fan responded casually.

"...So strong." Lin Yilin came back to her senses and couldn't help but be shocked after tasting it carefully.

Although it costs money, it can be said to be a void creation ability after all!
Most property illusions were just a little tricky, making something plausible to fool people, but Mr. Illusion was on a completely different level.

As long as you give him money, he can really make what you want out of thin air!
Even unlike most wealth illusions, no physical cash is required.

Just swipe your bank card.

Lin Yilin picked up her cell phone and checked her savings balance. Seventy thousand yuan was a small amount compared to her huge deposit, but it was indeed less.

There is no payment or transfer information.

She investigated further and was surprised to find that the money seemed to have... disappeared out of thin air, or it seemed to have never existed in the first place.

Apart from her and Zheng Fan standing beside her, no one knew that 70,000 yuan had disappeared quietly from the Central Bank of Dadu.

Think carefully.

The Central Bank of the capital is located in the White City, a restricted area of all foreign colors and a clean and safe area.

But he was easily seen through and influenced by Mr. Illusion.

After confirming, she looked at Zheng Fan again, staring at him intently.

The harmonious relationship they get along with each other on weekdays always makes her ignore from time to time the fact that Mr. Hallucination is an extremely abnormal and terrifying hallucination.

Could Mr. Illusion be some kind of amnesiac and destitute King of Illusion?

Miss Lin Yilin also has a rich imagination.

"What's wrong?" Zheng Fan was happily feeling the long-lost touch of his own body. Seeing Lin Yilin looking at him, he asked.

"…Nothing. I was thinking, Mr. Illusion didn't ask me for my bank card or money before, but you seemed to say that you practiced it? How did you practice it?"

"Go to the street and steal other people's money and bank cards." Zheng Fan answered casually.

"...As expected of you."
