Chapter 238 'Pawn Shop'
Chapter 238 'Pawn Shop'
"Welcome to the Huichangshi Branch of Ciyu Pawnshop. What should I call you, Miss?"
"Hmm...just call me Firefly, like the fireflies that flicker in the night sky."
At this moment, Feicui's gaze inadvertently fell behind Liuying, and a figure slowly appeared. A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and then turned into some joy: "Huh..? Who is the person behind you..?" There was a hint of uncertainty in her words, but she could not hide her curiosity.
Lin Yu coughed lightly a few times, and there seemed to be some deliberately concealed fatigue in his voice, but he still took a firm step, walked out from behind Liuying, faced Feicui, with complex emotions flashing in his eyes: "Ahem... Feicui, it's been a long time, we meet again." There was a faint smile on his face.
"Lin Yu, I really didn't expect that you would appear in front of me in such a situation. It seems that today's visitors all have unusual reasons. Could it be that you two have any 'special' wishes?" There was a hint of sarcasm in her words, and her eyes seemed to be able to see through everything.
Upon hearing this, Liuying frowned slightly, with confusion written all over her face: "Special...wish? What does this mean?" There was a hint of confusion in her words.
"It means exactly what I said. I can feel... a strong emotion flowing between the two of you, an emotion that is hot and pure, like dry wood about to burst into flames. With just a slight touch, it can emit the most dazzling light and produce an everlasting fire..." Her words were gentle and meaningful.
After hearing this, Liuying's cheeks flushed. She secretly glanced at Lin Yu, only to see that Lin Yu was also looking at her gently, and their eyes met in the air.
"You... you are right." Liuying mustered up her courage, her voice soft but firm, "We do have a wish, we want to protect each other and face the future together, but... we don't know if our wish can really come true here."
"Here, I believe that every wish has its own unique value. As long as you are willing to pay the corresponding price and believe sincerely, then a miracle may happen."
"Every wish will be recorded, every transaction will be witnessed, but please remember that the realization of a wish often requires a price, and this price may be something you never expected." Jade said to the two.
"We are willing to try." Lin Yu spoke first, his voice steady and powerful.
Liuying also nodded: "Yes, no matter what the cost, we are willing to fight for each other and for our future."
Feicui saw this, then she closed the book and put it on the table beside her, then smiled and said to the two of them: "Then, let us look forward to the miracle that belongs to you together."
As Feicui finished speaking, a warm and mysterious atmosphere seemed to permeate the store.
...
"Look, who's here? The great hero of the Star Train, the most dazzling pioneer lady in all of Pinocchio!"
"Hey, you're here too? Long time no see, friend."
"Do you praise everyone you meet, Gold Dust?" Xing said to Gold Dust, then turned to Potio who was standing beside him.
"Why are you siding with the company, cowboy?" Xing asked.
"This guy... is related to a certain cutie I'm tracking down. How does the saying go? "The enemy of my enemy is my friend." Never mind, let's put aside the unpresentable things and not ruin the atmosphere of the Harmony Festival." Potio said to the projection of the gold dust.
"Well, I agree. Let's congratulate Miss Pioneer. I heard that the family wants to thank your train crew at the Harmonious Music Ceremony. It's a pity that we can't be there in person." Sha Jin congratulated, but spread out his hands helplessly.
"Thanks for your help in the final battle, cowboy."
"Ha, that's nothing. Punishing evildoers is the top priority. It would be strange if we were not there. With our presence here, we, the Sea Patrol Rangers, are back in action. You'll probably meet a lot of comrades on the road in the future. Please say hello to them for me."
"Well, goodbye, my friend. It's time to have fun on days like this. Have fun, you great hero of Pinocchio!" said Portio, and left.
So Xing looked at the gold dust again.
"Shajin, you left the stage in such a hurry."
"Although it wasn't me who did it...but...can my fire spear still be called a bad stone?" Xing asked him.
"Haha...I won't dare say such things anymore..." Sha Jin shook his head.
"But after all, my mission is just to open a gap for the company to enter the market. Apart from other things, I think I have done a good job in this matter."
"When you were staying at Liumeng Reef, I was actually nearby. Thanks to a knowledgeable friend, I would not have been able to dig up so much dirty information."
"It's just that the envoy used too much force... My body couldn't hold out for much longer, otherwise this could have been done more neatly."
"Let's go, my friend, enjoy this harmonious festival."
After Sha Jin finished speaking, his projection disappeared from the spot.
At this time, a person walked forward from behind the bookshelf.
"Oh? I remember you. Your performance in the space station was basically acceptable. No wonder that gambler thought so highly of you."
"I didn't know you were here. Do you know Gold Dust?" Xing asked Latio.
"The Institute of Knowledge sent me to invigilate the company's envoy. He is the person I am invigilating for this trip. Humph, it's just a task assigned by the Academic Affairs Office."
"Okay, isn't the Harmonious Music Festival about to begin? This is a rare opportunity, go ahead. Only by combining work and rest can you better absorb knowledge."
"I thought you would let me calm down." Xing shook his head.
"Oh, asking such a question means you don't really understand the purpose of learning."
"There is a scientific basis for combining work and rest. For the relevant argumentation process, please refer to page 21 of the academic journal "Lan Xing". Acquiring knowledge is for a better life. Don't put the cart before the horse like those idiots."
"I don't understand these, and I don't want to learn. More than 30,000 issues..."
"If you ask me to watch it, I might not even be able to get through the first episode..." Xing said awkwardly.
"Well... it's really harmful and useless to you... and a waste of time."
After saying that, Latio also left.
"Huh... Let's go back and find Sanyue..."
As Xing left the room, a creature ran to her feet.
