Yi Liuling's accompanying props were drawn from the mysterious store, and he still remembers the somewhat speechless scene.
Because he was small enough and light enough to climb to the top of the cabinet while stepping on a group of fiercely competing classmates, and then slid down the crowd like a slide, he was the first to get the contract object.
When he walked to the contract circle with a potted plant in his arms with a relaxed expression, the two teachers in charge of the contract looked quite dissatisfied with this.
This is not difficult to understand. The school stipulates that among all students, the first and last students to make a contract can receive two vouchers respectively as "icing on the cake" and "help in times of need". In addition, a number will be randomly shaken out, and the corresponding students will receive
A lucky draw ticket that “comes in good time”.
Different from the standard pool where ordinary lottery tickets are drawn, these three types of lottery tickets can enter the special up pool, which will have some limited items. Sometimes they are better, sometimes they are worse. It all depends on luck.
But no matter what, this is a benefit for students, and Yi Liuling is cheating, and the two teachers certainly don't want him to succeed.
Fortunately, Vice Principal Sharon is a reasonable person and said that things must be done according to the rules, so I still gave him the "icing on the cake".
Yi Liuling didn't know how the exchange coupon could help him, and it even caused him some hatred, but Vice Principal Sharon was looking at him with electric eyes, so he could only accept it with "happiness written all over his face."
Got off.
After that, it was time to go to the mysterious store. Yi Liuling followed the route on the flyer she got in the school auditorium. After walking around for a while, she saw a dilapidated wooden door.
There is a tattered and slightly skewed wooden board above the door with the words "Mysterious Shop" written on it, but it is covered with cobwebs and little spiders crawling around, making it look unreliable no matter how you look at it.
After hesitating for a moment, Yi Liuling stretched out her hand and knocked on the door panel.
"Knock on me, the door is unlocked, come in yourself!" came a very penetrating male voice, sounding very irritable.
Yi Liuling turned the handle and opened the door, and immediately choked on the dust falling from the door.
How long has it been since it was cleaned?
There were no windows in the mysterious shop, and there were no lights inside. The room was pitch dark. Yi Liuling tried to take a step in the dark and kicked a wooden box. After thinking about it, he returned to the door and groped on the wall.
, and found a pull rope.
The lamp above the head flashed twice and lit up, but the shop owner was reluctant to add too many materials. The flame of the magic lamp flickered. Generally, candles in the wind are used to describe the end of a person's life, but this light can be used.
In reverse, it is described as a dying person who will die at any time.
Yi Liuling looked around. It was a small room. It was dirty everywhere. There was only a counter in the very end that was so clean that it could be said to be unique and independent. There was a young man lying on it, with piles of food behind him.
sundries.
Yi Liuling carefully found a path that bypassed all the debris, and finally walked to the counter, but the young man neither got up nor spoke, he just lay there and stared at him with a pair of dead fish eyes.
The dim lights, the dirty room, the pale-faced boy, and the strange eyes all add up to something a little creepy.
However, Yi Liuling was not too afraid of this, and his brain circuit was obviously clearer, so he sat down directly on the chair outside the counter and stared back.
Isn't it just "who can blink first?" He has never lost in this game.
The young man was quickly defeated and had to speak: "Who are you?"
Yi Liuling felt that this man was incredibly attractive, but seeing that he was only two or three years older than her, he was most likely not a teacher, could he be a senior? However, could a senior be the owner of a mysterious store?
Forget it, it was more important to do business first. Yi Liuling told the purpose of his visit and handed the exchange coupon to the young man, but the latter did not raise his hand to take it at all, so he had to put the things on the table.
The young man's expression suddenly changed, and his eyes were full of condemnation, as if he had done something treacherous.
"Is something wrong?" Yi Liuling asked innocently.
"Nothing," the young man said angrily. He snapped his fingers, and a bunch of bubbles flew out from the pile of debris behind him and floated in front of Yi Liuling, "First pick five at random."
Yi Liuling looked at the thing in front of him that was the same as the bobo ball in terms of size and texture. Apart from the color, he couldn't seem to see any difference. He thought for a while, if the color represented the type of item, wouldn't it be different?
Under the premise of knowing, it is better to choose one.
Just like that, there were only five bubbles left in front of him, and the rest were taken away by the young shopkeeper with a wave of his sleeves.
Then, the young shopkeeper snapped his fingers again, and the color blocking the view on the surface of the five bubbles disappeared: "Choose one of the five and take it away as soon as you touch it."
After doing this, the young shopkeeper seemed to have exhausted all his strength and fell down on the counter again.
Yi Liuling went over and carefully observed the five bubbles. Each of them wrapped an item in a reduced form. Since he couldn't touch it, he could only judge by sight.
However, none of these five items look very good.
The half of a door panel with a door handle that was split vertically in half, a shabby doll with one eyeball missing, the middle part of a broken sword, a begging combination of a broken bowl and a cane, and a fancy knife
water gun.
"Can I ask a question?" Yi Liuling asked the young shopkeeper. The latter raised his head and glanced at him, with an impatient expression like "Why do you have so many things to do?" However, the school has regulations and the shopkeeper must answer students' questions.
Doubtful, so he reluctantly nodded.
Yi Liuling pointed to the five bubbles with a sincere look on her face: "Why are these things like garbage?"
"Because they are all recycled, and the original owners are dead." The young shop owner rolled his eyes, "Isn't it possible that second-hand items are so broken?"
Suojia High School has been around for a long time. Almost every generation of students will die. After their death, apart from the things they named and handed over to certain people, their other relics will be taken back by the school, which naturally includes their natal props.
After these items are recycled and sorted by the mysterious store, those that are basically not damaged will be restored to factory settings and used as new life props for those repeaters; those that are barely usable will be put on the shelves for students to redeem them for use; those that are almost broken will be used.
Those that cannot be used will be thrown into the prize pool for them to draw as companion props for new students.
"So that's the case, I completely understand," Yi Liuling nodded, "Sure enough, the owners of this kind of shop must be profiteers."
"So what? I can't cheat your money, so why should I open a store? Why don't I go home and sleep! And I'm not bullying you newcomers. There are still some good things in the pool." The young man said confidently, "You have one more chance.
, I can introduce one of the items to you, and even if you don’t choose it after listening to it, the rest can only be judged by yourself.”
Yi Liuling looked at the five things again, a little unsure, but at this moment, he suddenly felt something scratching the palm of his hand.
