"..." Upon hearing this, Brother Li frowned immediately. "Why do I have to do this?"
"Because you're the shop owner," Xiaobai replied.
"..." Brother Li frowned.
"Sigh, if you're not coming, then forget it. Let's just settle the bill for the 240,000." Xiaobai looked at the counter with a listless expression. "It's a pity that if all the cameras in this counter were compensated at three times the price, it would probably amount to 400,000 or 500,000. I can only take this money home."
"Brother Li, this won't do!!! That money is ours!"
Upon hearing Xiaobai's words, the shop assistant's eyes immediately welled up with tears, and she excitedly spoke to Brother Li.
"...Alright!" Brother Li's expression also paused. He spoke fiercely, strode to the cutting board, picked up the cleaver, and said, "You want me to do it? Fine, I'll do it! Little girl, you better not be messing with me, or you'll be sorry!"
"..." Xiaobai rested her chin on her hand, found a chair facing the cutting board, and sat down. "I'm thirsty."
"Miss, here's some juice!"
The staff immediately swarmed over and handed out all sorts of juices.
Xiao Bai casually picked one up, held it in his hand, but didn't drink it. He just looked at Brother Li with a smile.
Brother Li gripped the cleaver, his expression grim. He glanced at the shop assistants around him, then took a deep breath, squatted down, and with a snap, slashed the cleaver at the camera.
The cleaver in Brother Li's hand was used for chopping beef bones; it was thick and sturdy.
One knife down.
The camera bounced up on the cutting board.
Brother Li slammed the camera back onto the cutting board, then grabbed the cleaver and slammed it a few more times, shattering the camera into pieces.
The pain in Brother Li's eyes almost overflowed.
—You know, the cameras in the display case aren't fakes to fool people. Although they're not particularly expensive, they're all genuine products!
Enraged, Brother Li hacked away, finally shredding a camera into countless pieces, leaving it scattered on the ground.
"Are you satisfied now?" Brother Li asked, panting heavily as he looked at Xiaobai.
"Hmm, satisfied. Next one." Xiaobai said to the shop assistant, resting his chin on his hand.
"Hey hey hey, here I come!"
The shop assistant immediately brought over a new camera.
Brother Li took the camera, placed it on the cutting board, pondered for a moment, and then looked up and spoke to Xiaobai.
"...Is this the strange way of thinking among you rich people? Do you like to boss people around and do stupid things that ordinary people wouldn't do?"
"Who knows?" Xiao Bai looked at Brother Li, his smile wide.
"..." Brother Li didn't say anything more and continued to chop with the cleaver.
Crackling!
dong dong!
Brother Li chopped one of his cameras into pieces, and before he could catch his breath, a new camera was handed to him.
Brother Li, panting heavily, chopped away at a table he lifted one by one.
While cameras are indeed fragile, chopping them into pieces with a kitchen knife is still quite a tiring task.
Especially since these cameras were all genuine products from the shop, each one he destroyed made Brother Li's eyes turn redder.
Ding-ding-ding-ding.
One machine after another.
Before we knew it, almost an hour had passed.
Brother Li's hand, which had been wielding the cleaver, had slowed down considerably. He was drenched in sweat, his face flushed, and now he had to slump his shoulders and pant heavily for a long time after each chop.
The shop assistants were excitedly pressing the calculator buttons on the side.
"Brother Li, you've already earned 300,000 for the brothers!!! That's all legitimate income!!!"
"Damn, making money is so tiring!"
Brother Li, holding a kitchen knife, slashed at the newly served camera again.
As Brother Li chopped away the cameras in the shop, there were very few left.
Brother Li finally couldn't wield the knife anymore. He leaned against the cutting board, hunched over, panting heavily. He felt his entire arm was numb and had lost all feeling. Large drops of sweat streamed down his nose, dripping onto the floor and crumbling into dust.
The shop assistants nearby cheered for Brother Li in unison.
"Brother Li, if we take this camera apart, we'll have over a thousand yuan more!"
"..." Brother Li gasped for breath, listening to the voices around him. He slowly raised his head, his eyes bloodshot. "I'm not cutting anymore, I can't cut anymore."
"Brother Li? Brother Li, we still have so many..."
"Shut the hell up, I can't cut anymore!!" Brother Li yelled, slamming the knife onto the cutting board. "Whoever wants to cut can cut!"
Wow!
The camera debris piled up on the ground made a sound like ocean waves.
The shop assistants immediately became hesitant and all looked at Xiaobai.
"Sigh, there's still a little bit left." Xiao Bai said calmly to Brother Li while sitting in his chair.
"The rest are worthless." Brother Li rubbed his arm and threatened coldly, "Alright, that's enough, it's time to settle the bill."
"Sigh, alright." Xiaobai sighed.
Upon hearing that Xiaobai wanted to pay the bill, a group of shop assistants immediately became excited.
The shop assistants took out their calculators and excitedly started calculating for Xiaobai and Brother Li.
"Brother Li, you've spent a total of 720,000! Adding that to the young lady's previous 240,000, we've made 980,000 today!!!" the shop assistants shouted. "So much money, so much money, Brother Li!"
A shop assistant came up with a QR code.
Another employee came up with a card reader.
Two shop assistants fawned over Xiaobai, but Xiaobai ignored them and instead jumped off the chair and went to Brother Li, who was panting heavily.
"Are you sure you don't want to keep chopping?" Xiaobai asked.
"determine."
"Okay." Xiaobai nodded.
"You should pay the bill now," Brother Li said, looking at Xiaobai.
"Don't worry, let me check it out."
"...An examination?" Brother Li frowned. "What kind of examination?"
"I told you before, I asked you to chop the camera into minced meat. I need to see if it meets the requirements." Xiaobai squatted down, reached out and grabbed a handful of parts from the ground, then watched the small pieces slip from his fingertips. "Hmm, chopped very finely."
"Hmph." Brother Li snorted.
"But I'm sorry, it doesn't meet the requirements," Xiaobai said regretfully. "I can't pay you."
"...?" Brother Li's eyes widened immediately. "What?"
"I wanted the meat sauce," Xiaobai looked up innocently. "But isn't this just a bunch of parts?"
"...You son of a bitch, if the camera is chopped up, of course it's parts!!!" Brother Li roared, "The sauce is meat! It's meat!!!"
"So you knew too," Xiaobai said, covering her mouth. "I thought you didn't."
"..." Brother Li stared wide-eyed, speechless.
After a while, Brother Li's face suddenly turned ferocious.
It felt like all the torment, pain, frustration, and the humiliation of being manipulated all afternoon had suddenly erupted.
"You fucking bastard, you're asking for it!!! I'll kill you!!!"
The shop assistants stared blankly at Xiaobai, finally realizing they had been tricked.
Enraged, the shop assistants slammed the calculator to the ground.
"Damn it, you dare mess with us!!!"
"Give us the money! Give us the money!!!"
Brother Li was so angry that his eyes turned red. He didn't care about anything else. He picked up the kitchen knife in his hand, which was about to be dulled from chopping, and was about to chop it down on Xiao Bai's shoulder.
The surrounding shop assistants also roared and rushed forward.
Buzz————
Brother Li, drenched in sweat, charged forward with his knife, surrounded by shop assistants who resembled a pack of wolves.
Xiao Bai stood quietly among the crowd, covering her mouth and looking around.
Despite the situation, Xiaobai remained completely calm; in fact, a glimmer of light slowly appeared in her eyes.
Xiao Bai is preparing to activate the ship's equipment.
But at that moment, an accident suddenly occurred.
Boom! ! ! !
Just a moment before Brother Li and the shop assistants approached Xiaobai.
The ceiling where everyone was standing seemed to be shattered by a tremendous force, exploding in response!
Immediately afterwards, two figures descended from the sky.
A pair of long boots slammed Li Ge, who was closing in on Xiao Bai, into the ground, and the cleaver flew into the air.
With a gentle wave of the other umbrella, the approaching shop assistants were scattered in a circle, flying in all directions like baseballs being hit.
Brother Li let out a howl and fell to the ground, his head pressed firmly against the floor by two glamorous figures.
Hi, is there a party going on here?
"Would it be alright if I came along?"
Illinois and 1913 stood back to back, holding parasols, with faint, composed smiles on their faces, before the crowd.
Chapter 3689 Dinner Party
This was truly an unexpected turn of events.
Little White thought that after so much buildup, it was finally time to unleash his full potential (in a physical sense), but then Illinois and 1913 suddenly appeared at this crucial moment...
Rumble…
No one answered from inside the shop; the only echo was the sound of bricks and tiles falling.
The ceiling of the entire video store was blasted open by the two ship girls using some unknown means, creating a hole about two meters in diameter.
Outside the round hole, the bright blue sky was clearly visible, with white clouds drifting by.
Beneath the round hole, the shop was a mess, and the remaining part of the ceiling was also in poor condition. Those places were uneven, covered with cracks and broken steel bars, white cement, irregular bricks and tiles, etc., like branches growing in a deep forest. A large amount of construction debris, along with stones and sand, fell from the sky with a clatter.
Sitting in the chair, Xiaobai looked at the two ship girls in front of her with a strange expression.
Illinois and 1913 entered back to back, both dressed in casual outfits that Little White had never seen them in before. The clothes were perfectly smooth and wrinkle-free. 1913 was still holding her old parasol, which she rested on her shoulder and held over her and Illinois' heads. Sand and mud fell from the sky and scattered onto the parasol, then trickled down the edges to the ground, mingling with the fragments of cameras scattered everywhere.
Xiao Bai silently lowered his head and looked at the ground.
1913 and Illinois are legitimate ship girls. Even if they are not trained yet, their ship equipment makes them far more formidable than a few humans can handle.
For example, the group of shop assistants who were about to attack Xiaobai didn't even need the two of them to do anything. They were all shaken to the sides by the aftershocks of the two ship girls' appearance.
In the chaotic scene of the shop, a group of employees lay sprawled on the wreckage of machinery. They rolled around, groaning in pain. Their previous murderous intent and rage had long since dissipated. Even those who remained conscious, when they managed to get up and saw the two ship girls standing in the center of the room, and the large hole in the ceiling they had blasted open, all showed expressions of terror. They immediately turned pale, trembled, screamed several times, and scattered in all directions.
"Monster, a monster!!!"
"Help! Help!!"
"Monster! Monster! Aaaaaah!"
The shop assistants, who were still able to control their bodies, screamed and scrambled to their feet. They yelled and rushed toward the glass door, running away from the shop as fast as they could.
Even ordinary shop clerks were so frightened by the sudden appearance of the two ship girls that the leader, Brother Li, who had just been threatening to kill Xiaobai, was now lying motionless on the ground.
The two ship girls landed right above Li Ge's head.
They were standing in the center of the field, stepping on Li Ge's back and head. Li Ge, who was being used as a footstool, fainted and fell to the ground. The kitchen knife in his hand spun and flew up, then landed between his legs with a thud.
