"So, Master wants to borrow his resources to win over the other party..."
Yi Qiqi nodded slightly, showing some understanding.
"Yes and no, just go with the flow and lend a hand... If you find it difficult or troublesome, then ignore it."
Just providing some supplies did not hold a very high status in Lin Fan's mind.
If you can follow the trend, then do it; if you can't follow the trend, then give up. Put the interests of the team first.
The old man in plain clothes was a little proud when he heard this. "I just understood your look and was just playing along. At my age, I've seen a lot of storms. How could I be intimidated by a mere watch?"
"Then give it to me."
Yi Qiqi rolled his eyes and couldn't help but make a joke.
"No, no, sister."
The old man in plain clothes hurriedly shook his head and smiled ingratiatingly, "After all, I am working for the team, so the watch is just a reward... Isn't it, brother?"
"If you have it, wear it well."
Lin Fan glanced at the old man and said something.
"How can I bear to wear this... a 12 million watch, I feel like I'll lose hundreds of thousands just by scratching it."
The old man looked at the watch and wanted to worship it, but he was reluctant to wear it.
"You think...when terror strikes, the apocalypse arrives, and cash becomes worthless, who would still spend money on watches?"
Seeing the old man's money-obsessed look, Lin Fan told him the truth.
In the terrifying apocalypse, the first thing to be affected is the collapse of luxury goods.
A noble leather bag is not as good as a light schoolbag; a rare and valuable calligraphy and painting is not as useful as a hundred-dollar ghost note; a two-seater top-of-the-line sports car is not as good as an off-road vehicle.
As for watches, they are very useful. They can be used to know the flow of time, facilitate teamwork, etc.
However, the ones everyone sought after were those military-grade watches that were indestructible, fireproof, and waterproof. A fine, luxurious mechanical watch like this would be easily damaged by even a few bumps and dings, and in the apocalypse, it would be worse than scrap! How could it be worth anything?
Lin Fan deliberately pointed out that the request for the watch was fake, and he was just looking for an excuse to give a portion of the food to Master Xue.
I just don't want to give the other party any kindness for no reason, the only option is equal exchange!
Hearing this, the old man in plain clothes was silent for a moment with a complicated expression.
In this way, his 10 million was wasted.
"Brother...you are such a jerk."
The old man wanted to cry but had no tears, and felt a pang of pain in his body.
Looking at the exquisite and luxurious watch in my hand, I wanted to throw it away.
He just raised it and immediately put it back into his pocket.
Keep it for now and find another opportunity to fool those ignorant fools.
…
After a short break, some time passed.
In the Huihun Theater, the small noises of cleaning and arranging tables and chairs at the beginning turned into a noisy and chaotic scene.
Looking out through the door of the preparation room, you can see that the number of strange creatures is increasing, and the causes of death are various and terrifying.
All these strange things are for the purpose of watching the performance of living people.
Even though they had experienced many scenes, the other dozen or so people in the room were all trembling with fear when they saw this scene.
They will have to go on stage soon and perform for these terrifying creatures. There is no way to escape.
Only by completing the mission can you survive!
When they thought of this, the people who were originally resting were stimulated by this and got up from the ground tremblingly, picked up tools and started practicing.
In the empty preparation room, there are many tools and objects.
Modern guitars, pokers, magic props; ancient pipa, guzheng, dancing fans, everything is available.
Everyone can always find the tools they want to use in the preparation room.
There are even sufficient quantities for everyone, so living people don't have to fight with each other for the same tool.
It seems that every time a trial-taker enters the Soul Returning Theater, the performance tools that the trial-taker is familiar with and imagines will naturally appear in the preparation room and be used.
The same goes for Yiqiqi and the old man in plain clothes.
After a quick glance, I saw familiar tools.
Yi Qiqi was slightly surprised. "There's actually a ukulele, and it's a small size that I can use... If it comes to performance, this is what I can do."
"I also saw the... blindfolded knife throwing that I played with in my youth."
The old man in plain clothes also pointed forward.
"Old man, do you still have this ability?"
"I can't tell, old man."
Cat Baiwan and Dog Shiba both popped their heads out, and both the dog-headed cat and the dog-headed cat had a look of surprise on their faces.
"I still have some skills."
The old man in plain clothes coughed twice, then continued calmly, "When I was young, I maintained a good cooperative relationship with the First Hospital of the City for a long time."
At this moment, not only outside the house, but also inside the house became lively and bustling.
Seeing others practicing enthusiastically, Yiqiqi couldn't help but feel a little nervous, "Master, should we practice first?"
"Brother, trust me. I used to be shortsighted, but now I have the strange pupil. My flying knife will never go wrong!"
The old man in plain clothes patted his chest, his hands trembling slightly.
Yi Qiqi glanced sideways and gave him a suspicious look.
The old man quickly said seriously, "Sister, don't doubt me... This is a habit I got from working in the school cafeteria. I shake more when I hold a spatula than a knife."
Lin Fan did not respond, but looked up first.
He loved to play in college and dabbled in a little bit of everything, even though decades have passed and he has long forgotten everything.
The preparation room still provides the corresponding tools suitable for stage performances.
Performing on stage, satisfying the guests, and getting tips, just from the literal meaning, doesn't sound dangerous.
However, how could any horrific scene where one was almost dead be so simple?
I guess it’s wishful thinking to want to earn a reward of three thousand from the weird hands!
