KMA: Kickass Man A Is Back novel Chapter 16

In Christopher's study, there was a tea table in the middle and three wooden racks, which were full of all kinds of antiques.

"Wait a minute, Mr. Lincoln!"

Christopher walked to the wooden rack, picked up a sandalwood box, and took out a vase from it.

Seeing this, Bianca, who had barged into the room, suddenly let out a surprised cry. "Grandpa, how can you show such an important thing to an outsider?"

Christopher scolded, "Nonsense. I asked Mr. Lincoln to help me!"

"Mr. Lincoln, please continue!"

Bianca walked over briskly and stood by. And her delicate face was full of vigilance as she looked at Atlas Lincoln.

As if she was saying that, I must expose your scheme, big liar!

Atlas didn't bother to care about this spoiled little girl. He focused all his attention on the vase in front of him.

Although this vase did not contain Spiritual Power, Atlas could feel that it exuded an ancient energy.

Most people relied on knowledge to appraise antiques, and cultivators could completely distinguish the authenticity by the "Energy" on it.

Every ancient object had an ancient energy, or aura.

Atlas studied the vase carefully. It was clearly an antique. However, the paint of the outer layer suggested the rough workmanship, which was enough for everyone, even a layman like Atlas to tell that it was a fake one.

This was really odd. No wonder even an expert like Christopher couldn't distinguish.

"Mr. Lincoln, can you find anything?" Christopher asked expectantly.

Atlas did not say a word and continued to size it up.

Bianca said sarcastically, "Grandpa, I've already said that he's only one or two years older than me. What kind of appraisal experience would he have? You see that now?"

Christopher did not reprimand her this time. Perhaps Atlas Lincoln found the Buddha statue in the antique store by chance?

"If you don't know it, then stop pretending. I’m here, and you can't deceive my grandfather! Bianca raised his delicate face arrogantly, looking as if she had seen through him.

But Atlas ignored her. He looked at Christopher and said lightly, "You've studied this thing for so long. What have you found?"

Bianca was even more proud. She yelled, "Grandpa, look, he doesn’t know at all. He lied. Don’t you believe me now?"

A look of disappointment appeared on Christopher's face. However, Atlas was invited by him. Even if Atlas could not see through it, he had to treat him with courtesy.

"Bianca, stop disrespecting Mr. Lincoln or you'll be given punishment." Christopher said seriously.

The look on Bianca's face changed, and she chuckled, "Grandpa, I won't say anything else."

After that, she made a face at Atlas and stuck out her cute tongue.

Atlas smiled slightly. He could see that although this little girl was unruly and willful, she was not a bad person and was just in the rebellious period, who wouldn't easily admit her mistake.

"Mr. Hamilton, please go ahead."

Christopher started, "According to my research, this vase looked like a replica. However, the inside of this vase is a real glazed pottery."

"I have done a lot of appraisals and went through many books and scrolls to prove that the inner material of this vase is authentic."

"However, the outer layer was rough. How did these two completely different workmanships appear on the same item? I really can't figure it out!"

Bianca listened attentively as well. She had been following her grandfather since she was a child, so she was also interested in such a bizarre item.

Atlas smiled, "Mr. Hamilton, do you want to know the answer?"

Christopher was stunned, and then he said happily, "Mr. Lincoln, you have the answer?"
