The novice Taiyinzi brought Luo Qiu to the male dormitory.

Speaking of which, Luo Qiu actually had his own bed in the dormitory here—in fact, the school required students to live on campus. It was just that his home was nearby, and his classes… his classes could be ignored, so this bed remained unused.

"This is the person with intense desires, a narrow mind, and a venomous heart?"

"Yes, Master, please look!"

In a male dormitory that wasn't too messy, Luo Qiu and Taiyinzi appeared behind a certain male student.

Strangely, the male student seemed completely unaware of anyone behind him.

Taiyinzi walked up to the male student. "Master, look! This person is talking to someone within this 'thinking device'! Modern technology is truly bizarre; it allows for conversations with people through such strange contraptions!"

"...This is called a computer."

"Oh... Master, look!" Taiyinzi pointed at the text the male student had typed on the computer screen. "This person is truly malicious! Look, he's designing how to poison someone! From the poison to the method of murder, everything is extremely secretive! Most importantly, this guy is smiling happily while designing these things! It's like a hidden dagger in a smile!"

Luo Qiu glanced at it, then shook his head and said calmly, "Let's go."

He's playing a tabletop RPG, man...

And while his desires are great, it's just creative desire. Although he could be considered as a potential patron, there's not much profit to be made. Even if I could tempt him into trading his soul… it would be a very low-quality one.

Boss Luo felt he wasn't so desperate as to eat anything that came his way.

"Master doesn't like him?" Taiyinzi panicked and quickly said, "It's okay! My harvest today isn't limited to just this one! Master, please follow me!"

The novice Taiyinzi brought Luo Qiu to a second location: the female dormitory.

After hesitating for a moment, Boss Luo finally plunged in, arriving in a room where underwear was hung haphazardly.

"Master, please look! This 'thinking device'... hmm, the computer is displaying such filthy images! Hmm. What kind of person is this? Why is their skin black? Never mind! The main thing is, it shows a foreign man doing… is this blonde woman also a foreign woman? So vulgar! How can one woman engage in such promiscuous acts with multiple men! How large are these foreign men's… hmm, let's get back to the patron! Master, look! This woman, seeing these images, is actually filled with lust, her face flushed, and she's even reaching out… this is utterly ****! This naturally **** person willingly sinks into carnal desires… Master? Master, where are you going?"

Damn it, idiot…

"Master, please look! The group of people in this room are simply spineless! That man in white is teaching these young people how to kill! The man lying on the bed has clearly already been harmed! This man in white understands the human body extremely well! Master, please look! This is likely a rather evil assassin training base! MasterMaster, where are you going?"

He's attending an anatomy class, man…

"...Master, Master, where are you going? Wait for me!"

Boss Luo sighed. He didn't understand why he was watching a five-minute play here.

"...Master, this time for sure… Eh? Master, where are you going again? Wait!"

Male and male love is true love, man, it's not immoral or anything…

"Master, wait for me! I have another discovery!" Taiyinzi said in a flustered manner in front of Luo Qiu again.

This is not good! It's the first time out on business, but it seems I haven't found a patron that interests Master. Taiyinzi was extremely anxious!

And speaking of which, what has this modern society developed into? So many great sinners, could it be that this is quite normal?

Luo Qiu sighed, but he stopped and said softly, "Black Soul No. 9, come see me."

Not long after, a phantom emerged from the ground.

It's surprisingly quick to die. As expected, this guy was also worried about Taiyinzi, so he was probably lingering nearby.

"Master, what are your orders?" Black Soul No. 9 said woodenly.

Luo Qiu said, "Hmm… the school library is over there. Take Taiyinzi there, and don't teach him how to bewitch humans anymore. Teach him some modern life knowledge."

Black Soul No. 9 nodded.

But thinking of the so-called patrons Taiyinzi mentioned, Luo Qiu felt his eyes had been thoroughly assaulted for half the day, so he said seriously, "Use rote learning!"

"As you command!"

Watching Taiyinzi about to say something but being dragged away directly by Black Soul No. 9, Luo Qiu shook his head and sat down on a nearby bench.

He took out his phone and habitually checked his Zhihu account.

There had been no follow-up on the text he had obtained from his former boss's room these past two days.

He hadn't expected that when he opened it this time, there would be a reply.

The replier was someone named "Golden Pupil," who was also the one who initially identified it as "suspected Coptic."

The replier wrote: "Hmm, seeing the text posted this time, it should be a complete sentence. As for the source, it seems that the same sentence appears on one page of the Gospel of Judas, transcribed by ancient Egyptians in the 3rd-4th century AD. However, I cannot be certain. I hope this helps you."

After reading it, Luo Qiu muttered strangely, "Judas?"

Regarding Judas, who appeared in Western legends, since he wasn't a believer himself, all Luo Qiu knew was some information circulating online.

One of the twelve apostles.

The person who betrayed the Lord Jesus for thirty pieces of silver.

He still had the photos he took on his phone, and there were also some images of handwritten manuscripts of the Gospel of Judas circulating online. Luo Qiu decided to compare them on the spot.

"Is it really the 'Gospel'…"

Luo Qiu was astonished to discover that among the circulated images, he could indeed find a page that had many matching points with the text-image he had photographed.

Feeling as though he was making some headway with the strange text, Luo Qiu's gloomy mood improved slightly.

At the same time, two girls walked quickly past him.

"Oh wow! Tu Jiaya is here! It looks like she's filming an MV here to release her new single!"

"Let's go, let's go! If we're late, we probably won't be able to squeeze in!!"

Luo Qiu raised his head and looked at the retreating backs of the two girls rushing past, a look of curiosity on his face.

Although he was someone who preferred to be alone, he wasn't to the extent of being completely oblivious to the world around him.

In modern times, there are many channels for acquiring information, and if he didn't recognize the prominent figure Tu Jiaya, it would be quite unusual for someone in this vicinity.

She was a singer who had swept all the major charts right after her debut, gained countless fans, and possessed a voice as heavenly as nature's.

Furthermore, she was also a talented songwriter.
