…… Chapter 182 Bribery, Deception, Change [8K] Two hours and fifteen minutes, Lin Ye saw the staff of the sports meeting in the distance. Next to the staff, there was a large sign. 【15km】 half the distance. They have already covered half the distance. "call……" "We're halfway there," Leng Shuang looked at it and let out a breath.
Although she had run long distances before, they were generally just ten or thirty kilometers of hiking, which Leng Shuang had never experienced. This time, I am carrying weight on my long walk. She and Lin Ye took turns in charge of the cart. However, compared with the time, she was younger than Lin Ye, so Lin Ye spent more time pulling the cart. But this cart has indeed relieved some of their burden so far. Simply carrying the bags and water forward would only put more strain on their physical energy. Two minutes later, Lin Ye and the other two came to the front of the staff, only to find that there was a fork in the road. There are two roads, left and right. At first glance, there isn't much difference at the end. "Hello! Which way should I take to get to the destination?" “Both ways are fine.” The staff member smiled and replied, "I don't know which way is closer or faster." Damn! 'Patter...' Lin Ye's strange coin fell to the ground, and he immediately bent down to pick it up, "Your strange coin fell, please keep it." staff member:? ? ? Cold cream: ???
Nakiri Erina: ??? Is this the way to send money? Erina Nakiri just felt that Lin Ye's contrast was very strong. He was completely unwilling to spend weird coins to buy water before, but now he is willing to use weird coins to bribe the staff. Of course, Erina Nakiri can understand this if she thinks about it carefully. 10 weird coins for a cup of water is too expensive. They drank four cups of water each at the beginning, and the total cost for the three of them was 120 weird coins, which is higher than the initial reward of weird coins for the first place of the "Food Sports Conference". Now it's a good idea to use 1 weird coin to bribe the staff to get useful information. But the question is whether the staff can agree? That shouldn't be possible. He is an official staff, how could he accept bribes for this one strange coin! "gentlemen," "Pah..." Another strange coin fell to the ground. Lin Ye immediately bent down and picked it up again, "Sorry, I didn't expect to drop another one. I picked it up for you." This operation once again shocked the people at the scene. The staff watched, and even wearing a mask could not hide his desire for the strange currency, "This is not good." "Pah..." This time there are three strange coins. "You are the only one who can drop three strange coins, sir." This staff member also seemed to understand Lin Ye’s meaning. Three strange coins were the highest amount, and it was impossible to add more money. Lin Ye stuffed three strange coins into the staff's hands. “I wonder which path is more suitable for us human participants to reach the destination faster!” It seemed to be struggling with how to answer. "How about this one?" He remained silent. "I see. It's this one." Lin Ye chose the one on the right. "Let's go, don't drop weird coins next time." Lin Ye and the other two followed the passage on the right and disappeared at the corner ahead. At this moment,
The staff member in charge of guiding them let out a sigh of relief. "It almost faltered." He looked at the strange coin in his hand. "Others can tell them the right path, but you can't! Alas! The higher-ups have given instructions." If Lin Ye had not tricked the organizers, they would not have received any instructions targeting Lin Ye. But he fell into the trap, so he would need to accept their revenge. They wanted to trip him up and affect the results that Lin Ye could achieve. after a little while, The staff member suddenly heard footsteps on the road to the right. He looked over curiously and saw that it was Lin Ye and his companions. How did they come back? "Guest, what are you doing..." "I thought about it and decided to take the road on the left." "Eh!" The staff was shocked. Why did you decide to take the left road? "The right side is better." "Yes! The right side is better, but I think I shouldn't do this and I can't cheat. Therefore, I will punish myself by taking the left side to make up for my guilt and express my respect for the fairness of the game." The staff were stunned when they heard this. Respect for fair play? Is there such a thing? You must be having a brain twitch! How could you have such an idea? He wanted to stop them, but he didn't know how to persuade Lin Ye and others to return to the passage on the right. "Sir, you don't need to feel guilty or remorseful. You should take the right path to the finish line and win." The staff persuaded them and changed their previous style. At least as of now, the staff remained silent, but now they took the initiative to speak. "I've made up my mind, let's go," Lin Ye walked towards the road on the left. Leng Shuang glanced at the staff again. She knew that Lin Ye must have discovered something when he left alone just now. Otherwise, I wouldn't have temporarily turned back and chosen the road on the left. This staff member took the money but did not do his job. She thought that Lin Ye should take the money back. Otherwise, three strange coins would lead to a choice that was almost the wrong one. Anyone would be furious. When the three of them walked away, Erina Nakiri couldn't help but asked, "What did you find out? Did the staff member just now deceive us?"
This was all the blonde lady could think of. As for what Lin Ye said about pursuing fairness and guilt, she didn't believe a word of it. "Yes, you lied to us." "How did you tell that?" "When I returned, he was talking to himself," Or he used time stop to come to the staff member's side, and hid using invisibility, waiting for the moment when he let his guard down and exploded. If there was no self-destruction, he would either look at the new players that might have arrived, or go back and continue along the right road with Leng Shuang, going down this path until the end. But fortunately, the staff member revealed himself, and just as he had expected due to his worries and vigilance, he had been blacklisted by the organizer and all staff members would target him specifically. He felt that the first site was deliberately targeting him by offering a sky-high price of '10 weird coins for a cup of water'. "This is rubbish. I took the money but gave out wrong information. Damn it. I lost so much money." Erina Nakiri felt sorry for the three strange coins. "Bring it back." "Forehead!" "If he hadn't lied to me, I would have given him the Weird Coins. But since he lied to me and didn't keep his promise, I naturally couldn't give him the Weird Coins." Lin Ye said with a smile, He didn't want to suffer a loss. Since the staff member didn't tell the truth, he naturally wouldn't give him three strange coins. You should know that strange coins are hard currency in the other world. He has always been fair and just. If you are good to me, I will be good to you, and it will be good for everyone. But if you cheat, don't blame me for being cruel. "There's really no way I can take advantage of you," Leng Shuang also laughed when he heard this. Lin Ye didn't suffer any loss, and she felt much more balanced. Three strange coins, these are not the real three dollars that can be obtained easily. Although Lin Ye now has 350 strange coins, which is quite a lot, it should not be wasted. The three strange coins were earned by Lin Ye at the great risk of his life. "Didn't Miss Leng take advantage of me?" Leng Shuang thought about it and realized something, "We are companions, so it's not taking advantage at all." “Haha, that’s true.” At this time, the three of them were in a good mood and their steps were much lighter. As 1/2 is out, the staff is still waiting for the arrival of subsequent players. When faced with players' questions, he answered randomly, either to the left or to the right, all depending on his mood at the time.
But what made him regretful was that no player used weird coins to bribe him. "Ugh!" "There are very few people who are so sensible and behave like that." "What a shame, compared to the others, that human really understands the ways of the world. Three strange coins!" …… He subconsciously reached for the bag where the strange coins were kept.
