"Of course I can tell the difference."
"The answer is wrong. At this point, you should say you can't tell the difference."
Hanabi said with a smile, "Is it really necessary to distinguish between twins so clearly?"
So you're going to make the best of a bad situation, huh? Haji, you're quite shrewd.
Toyokawa Shoko frowned, intending to hold Hanabi down and team up with Rōzō to teach her a lesson. Hanabi easily broke free: "Hehe, I'll go in and tease Huo Huo a bit. She wants to build up her courage, so I'll help her. I'm always happy to help."
As soon as she stepped into the area shrouded by the Emperor's Banner, Huo Huo's screams increased by four or five octaves. Luo Zhen couldn't help but marvel at the physical prowess of the fox-people; even this didn't break her voice.
Soon, Huo Huo fell silent. Hua Huo carried Huo Huo, who had fainted from fright, out and said, "Oh dear, she's so fragile. She's already passed out. I can only imagine how much fun I can find in her for a long time."
On the other side, after the tail barely defeated more than a dozen Suiyang and regrouped, it immediately said to Luo Zhen, "Don't do anything yet, let me rest for a while."
Luo Zhen asked in confusion, "Does Suiyang need to rest? I thought Suiyang never slept or rested."
Are you still human?
Tail really wanted to yell at Luo Zhen, but he didn't dare. If Luo Zhen glared at him, he would have a dozen more children. He could only patiently explain, "As the largest fragment of Liaoyuan, the other consciousnesses sealed within me are by no means easy to suppress. It's very tiring to suppress them again."
Luo Zhen introduced another strange thing; four! Qi Si Wu Qun did not force it, the tail's personality is quite good, if it crashes and is replaced by other Sui Yang, Huo Huo will definitely cry.
Although he could make the suppressed tails grow back.
Luo Zhen resealed the tail back into Huo Huo's bottom and shook Huo Huo awake. She was still not recovered and her face was pale: "Am I dead?"
"Yes, the surgery was successful, and you are now a boy."
"what?!"
Huo Huo sat up in surprise, realizing what was happening before she could get a medical check-up: "Really, manager, don't scare me like that."
"Useless things."
Tail scolded, "They actually fainted from being frightened by some ghosts. They have no fighting power at all."
Huo Huo said weakly, "Actually, I was scared unconscious by Miss Hanabi."
Hanabi smiled happily: "Oh dear, little green-haired guy, you'll have to get used to this, because I'll be watching you forever, always secretly observing your every move. Running away or being afraid won't help; I'll be watching you forever, forever, forever, forever."
"Oh dear, how terrifying!"
Huo Huo trembled, her tail twitching with protective instinct: "Masked Fool, do you want a fight?!"
"Just kidding, don't be so serious."
Hanabi said, "This is also part of building courage."
Although Huo Huo was trembling, she still insisted, "Since I've entrusted the shop manager to be brave, I can't back down. I will definitely succeed!"
"You're very brave, little green-haired guy. I'll go to the Fairy Ship with you then, so I can help you better."
"it is good."
Huo Huo agreed on a whim, completely unaware of the agonizing life that awaited her.
Luo Zhen also went to the Immortal Ship. On a whim, he decided to check how Qing Que's funds were accumulating. She had previously entrusted Luo Zhen to find a way for her to slack off forever. Luo Zhen collected literary and artistic works from the pre-Honkai Impact 3rd civilization and the world of Toyokawa Shoko, and asked her to sell them online, giving her a cut.
You must have saved up quite a bit of money by now, right?
Luo Zhen found Qingque at the Taibu Temple and coughed lightly: "Qingque, you're slacking off again!"
"My Lord, I didn't!"
Qingque quickly shut down the jade oracle, and the next moment she realized that this was not the voice of the Grand Diviner.
She turned around and saw that it was Luo Zhen. She breathed a sigh of relief: "It's the store manager. You scared me."
"How's your plan going?"
Luo Zhen asked, "How much money have you saved?"
"You've saved quite a bit!"
Qingque was very excited, "In just thirty years, I can earn enough money for retirement!"
Luo Zhen almost forgot that as a long-lived species, Qingque has a long lifespan and needs more retirement funds. In order to prevent accidents, the money he saves must far exceed what he needs in order to be safe and to convince his family to give up his secure job.
"Then keep up the good work."
Luo Zhen casually ruffled Qingque's hair, but before he could leave the Taibu Temple, he was stopped by Fu Xuan:
"Lord Xuanyuan, I have something I would like to ask you."
Upon entering Fu Xuan's office, she said, "I was idly casting a divination and found that Qing Que might resign in the future. According to the divination, it is not a crisis, but rather a life of abundance. The previous divination did not indicate this. The only person I can think of is you, Dragon Lord. Could it be that you gave Qing Que a large sum of money?"
"It's money she earned herself."
Luo Zhen briefly explained Qing Que's request.
"Such a thing can happen."
Fu Xuan frowned. She had always thought highly of Qing Que's talent, which was why she tried to give her more responsibilities every day so that she could do more work and accumulate merit. However, Qing Que was too clever. She would delegate the work to others and also share the credit with others, so that she was still the lowest-ranking diviner.
Fu Xuan's eyes flickered: "If she can entrust you with this, then can I entrust you with this as well?"
"Of course, Fu Xuan, what would you like to commission?"
"Let Qingque strive and forge ahead."
Luo Zhen couldn't hold back: "A request is not a wish. Unless you brainwash someone, it's impossible to achieve the desired effect."
Qingque used to be a master of lying down and doing nothing, but now with Luo Zhen's support, even a little bit of money leaked from Luo Zhen's fingers is enough for Qingque to achieve financial freedom. It's impossible to motivate her to strive for more.
Unless Jing Yuan and Fu Xuan both entrust the task to her, leaving her with the heavy responsibility, she might grow and evolve, becoming the next Fu Xuan.
"it's a pity."
Fu Xuan asked, "Is there any way to prevent her from resigning, or even to get her promoted?"
[The request: Fu Xuan wants to push Qing Que and give her more responsibilities.]
[Reward for Commissioning: 2,000 Commission Crystals]
Luo Zhen couldn't hold back. Even with the help of Fu Xuan, the Grand Diviner, the difficulty was still so high. Qing Que was practically the god of slacking off.
But it's okay, Luo Zhen has already come up with a solution.
Promotion requires accumulating merits, but Qingque is unwilling to do so. There's no need to force her; as long as Qingque's colleagues and superiors believe that she did it, Fu Xuan can promote her legitimately.
The higher the position, the greater the resistance to Qingque's resignation. As someone with both parents, it was difficult for her to explain to them why she wanted to resign from her high-ranking position within the system. Even if she wanted to make money through side hustles, she could do it in her spare time.
In particular, if Qingque were to resign, it would definitely be money earned during her employment, so in their view, there was absolutely no need to resign.
"I'll give it a try and see if it works."
I'm sorry, Qingque, Fu Xuan really gave me too much.
Don't worry, when you submit your request to resign, I will reappear and help you achieve your dream.
Luo Zhen left the office and, instead of calling Qing Que, went to find Hua Huo.
"You want me to impersonate Qingque, do her good deeds, and help her get promoted?"
Hanabi laughed, "That sounds interesting, but darling, I don't know anything about fortune telling."
"The divination of the Immortal Boat is essentially calculation and big data deduction. If we ask Silver Wolf for help, Qing Que, as the lowest-level diviner, can easily handle it with the help of the universe's number one hacker."
"As for those major achievements, we'll have to wait and see."
He lured Qingque out, pointed the Divine Evolution Device at her, and instantly, countless phantom images of Imperial Jade Tablets swirled around her, making Qingque's aura incredibly powerful.
"What power is this?"
With a flick of her finger, an Imperial Jade Token shot out, causing a violent explosion that left a crater nearly ten meters deep in the ground.
"Did I do this?"
Qingque was terrified. "Am I going to go to jail?"
"It's alright, I'll help you!"
Luo Zhen used time reversal to restore the damaged area and then escaped with Qing Que.
This is the evolved form of the Azure Sparrow, General Azure Sparrow!
"It's powerful, but I don't need it."
Qingque said, "If I kill someone, my life will be over."
She doesn't intend to be a hero, so having such great power is useless to her.
"makes sense."
Luo Zhen said, "Want to go play cards together? I see a lot of people playing cards at the card parlor."
Qingque really wanted to go, but she was also a little scared: "I'll get scolded by the Grand Diviner."
"It's okay, I'll take responsibility."
Luo Zhen said, "At worst, I'll just say that I forced you to go shopping with me."
"That's what you said."
Qingque followed Luo Zhen happily, sincerely exclaiming, "Manager, you're such a good person."
At this moment, Taipusi, who had transformed into Qingque Huahuo, was taking the initiative to apply for a mission with the help of Yinlang. He then quickly completed three months' worth of work.
A promotion is just around the corner!
Chapter 106 Blue Sparrow: I've Been Set Up by Capital / Paradise Paradise, Time Stop Morgan.
When playing cards with Luo Zhen, Qingque always felt uneasy, as if something bad was about to happen.
However, when she saw Luo Zhen, she felt relieved. With the amazing shopkeeper around, who could possibly harm her? Even if the petite fortune teller came looking for trouble, the shopkeeper would take the blame for her!
Oh dear, should I practice how to talk back to the Grand Diviner? If she gets angry and fires me, Little Sparrow, that would be perfect.
She waited expectantly as she played cards, hoping Fu Xuan would come to find her, but Fu Xuan was nowhere to be seen, and didn't even send a message to her Yu Zhao to reprimand her.
Normally, Qingque would be overjoyed, but now she's a bit conflicted. Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
With the immunity granted by Luo Zhen, it would feel wasteful not to use it.
Qingque, who had been playing cards all day, never saw Fu Xuan again. The next day at work, she was surrounded by her colleagues.
"Qingque, you're amazing! You finished your work so quickly."
