Losing hair means getting rich? The sweet troubles of poor students

Xiaodou woke up to the mint-scented breeze and found his paw on half a cold bun. He jumped away hastily, but heard a rustling sound - the tinfoil-like fluff fell from his tail, instantly turning into shiny coins and rolling on the cafeteria floor with a crisp sound.

"Is this the power of the Lucky Rat?" He looked in the mirror against the window. His gray fur shone with the luster of gold, and the tip of his tail was wrapped with the pattern of a bronze coin. "But it's so itchy when the hair falls out..."

"Classmate, your mouse has lost its hair!"

The boy in the sweatshirt rushed over and held Xiaodou with his lunch box. His eyes were dark and there was only half a piece of pickled vegetable in his lunch box. "My name is A-Man, and I'm the poorest student in the school... Please let me touch the mouse's fur. I want to buy medicine for my grandma!"

Xiaodou softly flicked his tail, and three strands of hair fell off, transforming into 1, 5, and 10 yuan coins. Ah Man screamed, picked up the money, and ran to the cafeteria window: "Auntie, give me a portion of braised pork! And double the rice!"

Before the aroma of braised pork wafted over, Xiaodou suddenly felt a chill on his tail - he didn't know when he was surrounded by students holding mobile phones, and his hair was decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye, revealing his tender pink skin.

"The Rat Fairy has appeared! Losing hair means losing money!"

"If I touch it and a hair falls off, I will become rich!"

Amidst the shoving and jostling of the crowd, Xiaodou was pushed into a corner, with only a last wisp of fluff remaining at the tip of his tail. Just then, the school hunk in a white shirt passed by. As soon as his wrist touched Xiaodou's, his pupils suddenly glazed over, and he turned and ran towards the milk tea shop.

"Classmate, here are the 20 cups of milk tea you requested."

The milk tea shop clerk smiled bitterly while holding a mountain of cups, but the school hunk blinked blankly: "Why, why did I buy so much milk tea?" The crowd burst into laughter. Xiaodou took the opportunity to crawl into the school hunk's suit trouser pocket and heard the sound of a mechanical cat notification coming from his phone:

"Marriage value +5 (campus loan style wealth), but the amount spent will be refunded after 24 hours, please repay in time~"

"Um..." The school hunk blushed and spoke to his pocket, "Classmate Mouse, can you tell me why you want to spend money when I get close to you?"

Xiaodou stuck his head out and saw that the school hunk's phone screen lit up - the lock screen wallpaper was a veterinarian wearing glasses, and the clinic sign in the background read "Lin Shen Animal Clinic". In the corner of the veterinarian's left eye, there was a teardrop mole that was exactly the same as Bai Yan's in the Demon World chapter.

"Squeak!" Xiaodou's paw suddenly felt hot, and the gear rune on the center of the paw lit up with a seventh faint light. The school hunk took out a wet wipe in surprise: "Your ears are red! Is it painful to lose hair? Let me wipe it for you..."

Just as the wipes touched the fur, Xiaodou's tail suddenly dropped another coin—this time it was an energy chip from the Star Wars story. The patterns on the chip resonated with the school idol's watch. An alarm sounded from a distant library, and a dusty copy of "Ancient Rat Tribe Tales" automatically opened, revealing Lin Shen's library card tucked inside.

The school idol's ragdoll cat, Snowball, suddenly leaps out of the crowd and presses Xiaodou's tail with his paw: "Stay away from my master, you hair-shedding monster!" Half a badge is revealed under its collar. The number "003" is exactly the same as Snowball's police badge in the steampunk chapter.

Xiaodou secretly nibbled on the school hunk's watch and unexpectedly tasted the sweet-scented osmanthus fragrance of Mingshu's sword tassel from the Xiuxian chapter. Bai Yan's voice flashed through his mind: "Abyss, be careful of the sweet traps on campus..."

- After 24 hours of consumption review period, Xiaodou looked at the pile of milk tea and felt worried, but found that the bottom of each cup of milk tea had "Linshen Clinic Coupon: 20% off on sterilization surgery" printed on it.
