Some introverted 'I' people might have compromised, but Xie Yizhi clearly wasn't one of them.
"Stop with that nonsense. I don't allow photos here. If you're not playing, please leave."
The Bald Head Boss said, raising his hand, indicating for the two to leave.
He wouldn't reason with Xie Yizhi. If they wanted to play, they played; if not, they left. He wasn't short of one or two customers.
Tan Yuxi and Xie Yizhi exchanged glances. "Heh, so arrogant?"
"Bang!"
Tan Yuxi pulled her temporary police ID from her pocket, neatly displaying it in front of the Bald Head Boss.
The Bald Head Boss, who had been looking impatient, immediately wilted, his expression changing in a second. He smiled and said, "The signal isn't good in here. What I meant was, to film, we need to connect to Wi-Fi."
"Here, I'll enter the password for you."
Xie Yizhi: "..."
"—【Pfft, what a face! Another master of changing expressions! Hahahaha!】"
"—【Didn't this sister just say she hasn't graduated yet? Interning at the police station, how does she have a police ID?】"
"—【Probationary police officers generally use temporary police IDs, which is what the sister just showed.】"
"—【So that's it, hahahaha, reminds me of that, 'How can I help you?'】"
"—【When people are awkward, they usually pretend to be busy.】"
The Bald Head Boss saw Tan Yuxi flash her ID, and his small gestures clearly increased.
He enthusiastically asked Tan Yuxi and Xie Yizhi what they planned to do and how much money they wanted to spend.
"Let's start with three basins, sixty yuan."
Tan Yuxi paid first, transferring the money to avoid any arguments later.
Small basins were placed on the table, filled with beanbags. Each basin contained ten beanbags, meaning each beanbag cost two yuan.
"I still don't believe it."
Tan Yuxi grabbed a beanbag, aimed at the small dolls on the shelf, and began a frantic throwing spree.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."
Beanbags flew out one by one, looking much like pea shooters. Despite being a beautiful woman, her movements were inexplicably clumsy.
Xie Yizhi watched from the side.
Surprisingly, although Tan Yuxi threw quickly, the beanbags did hit quite a few dolls.
But the strange thing was that the dolls on the iron frame seemed to be welded on. Even when hit, they only moved slightly and simply wouldn't fall off.
Soon, ten beanbags from one basin were thrown, and only one doll fell down.
"See? It's definitely not my aim that's the problem!"
Tan Yuxi turned her head, pouting, and looked at Xie Yizhi with a mournful expression.
It was clear that she took her aiming ability very seriously...
"Are the beanbags too light?"
Xie Yizhi picked up a beanbag and weighed it in his hand. The weight was fine, not light.
At such a distance, if a person were hit, it would hurt quite a bit. It shouldn't be impossible to knock down such small dolls.
"—【I often go to the park to play this, and they usually fall down with just a touch!】"
"—【Exactly! How could it be hit so many times and only one fall?】"
"—【Check! Must check! The frame must have a problem!】"
"—【Rip-off! Strict inspection!】"
Even the Water friends watching through the screen were shouting that something was wrong.
Xie Yizhi threw the beanbag in his hand backward, hitting one of the Pikachu dolls right in the face. It definitely took the full impact.
But this Pikachu just wobbled and ultimately remained standing on the shelf, not falling down.
"Did your Pikachu come out with armor? It can't even be knocked down?"
"I need to go in and take a look."
Xie Yizhi said, about to step over the line and approach the iron frame, but was stopped midway by the Bald Head Boss.
"Hahaha, little brother, you can't touch this frame. It's too much trouble to arrange it back and forth."
"We're just running a small business, it's not easy."
"How about this, beautiful lady, which one do you like? I'll give it to you, pick one."
The Bald Head Boss said with a smile, pointing to a few large dolls hanging nearby.
Although he still had a smile on his face, his tone was clearly a bit displeased.
If Xie Yizhi hadn't been live streaming and Tan Yuxi wasn't a probationary police officer, he would have long since kicked out a regular customer.
"I don't want one you give me; I want one we win ourselves."
Tan Yuxi waved her hand.
Xie Yizhi also ignored the Bald Head Boss and was about to sidestep him to approach the iron frame.
However, he found that the Bald Head Boss's grip on his clothes was getting stronger and stronger, which made Xie Yizhi frown, his expression darkening.
"You won't let me look?"
Xie Yizhi then asked.
"Can't look. It's still the same thing: if you want to play, play; if not, please leave, both of you."
The Bald Head Boss stopped pretending. In his opinion, these two were clearly looking for trouble. What if she was a probationary police officer?
He opened his doors for business, with clear prices. If you wanted to play, play; if not, who was forcing whom?
"What kind of attitude is that? I now suspect you're defrauding consumers."
"Please cooperate with the investigation!"
Tan Yuxi had never seen anyone so arrogant. She pulled out her ID again, trying to intimidate the other party.
But clearly, this Bald Head Boss was also an old hand. He spread his hands: "What consumers have I defrauded?"
"Did I charge extra, or did I not give a prize when something was knocked down?"
"When I open a shop, how I do business must follow the rules I set. It's not like police can just bully us ordinary people."
Not only did he refute flawlessly, but he also put the blame on Tan Yuxi.
"You!"
Tan Yuxi was so angry her nostrils flared, and her mouth twisted, but she couldn't say a word, her eyes instinctively looking at Xie Yizhi.
"—【Damn! This attitude! It's clearly rigged!】"
"—【Are they not even afraid of the police anymore? So arrogant!】"
"—【I feel like the boss's face changed instantly. So fierce, so scary!】"
"—【Definitely a repeat offender, he must have scammed a lot of people before!】"
Since the other party was blocking him so stubbornly, Xie Yizhi didn't want to cause too much of a scene in the mall, so he turned and went back to Tan Yuxi's side.
After all, Tan Yuxi was a police officer, and she definitely wouldn't be able to reason with an old hand like this.
If she were to be blamed later, it would be hard to explain and would have a bad impact.
But...
Swallowing this anger was not Xie Yizhi's style either.
"You get a prize if you knock down a doll with your beanbag, right?"
Xie Yizhi asked.
"Yes, knock down one for a small doll of the same kind, six for a slightly larger one, and twenty for one that's over a meter tall."
The Bald Head Boss stroked his beard, his smile returning.
He could see that the young man was getting riled up.
With a beautiful woman beside him, he surely wanted to show off.
Therefore, he would buy many beanbags, but his dolls weren't that easy to knock down.
As long as Xie Yizhi played, he would definitely not lose money. Of course, the more riled up, the better!
"Forget it, let's not play. It's clearly a rip-off!"
Tan Yuxi said indignantly.
She planned to go back and strongly report this to her leaders and colleagues at the bureau.
As she spoke, she subconsciously tugged at Xie Yizhi's arm. Xie Yizhi turned his head and leaned down slightly, their eyes meeting.
It had to be said, Tan Yuxi's skin was truly good; even without makeup, it looked flawless at such close range.
She blinked, not yet reacting to the close proximity, and Xie Yizhi's heart subtly skipped a beat.
The smell was intoxicating!
This woman must have eaten garlic with her frog!
