Hobi smiled sinisterly, like a devil crawling out of hell.

"I'm sorry, Henry. The consequence of not telling the truth is that you will have to stay awake forever and offer your flesh and blood to my fortune tree."

He gently stroked the green branches of the fortune tree, his eyes as gentle as if he were treating a lover, "Just continue to stay with my precious tree. I hope this period will last forever."

Henry opened his mouth in despair like a dying fish and shouted hoarsely, "I've confessed! I've confessed! You don't keep your word!"

He struggled desperately but couldn't break free from the money tree.

Gu Xingyan walked up to Henry and spread out her palms, with two storage rings lying quietly in her palms.

"Henry, do you recognize these 100,000 grains of Xirang?"

Henry's originally hoarse shouting came to an abrupt end, like a rooster with its neck strangled, his eyes wide open, his eyeballs almost bulging out.

Gu Xingyan said calmly, "Last night, Manager Stobel came over in person to explain the whole story, and also expressed his willingness to pay a certain price to settle the matter privately, so as not to affect the reputation of Starry Company."

She paused, looked at Henry's increasingly pale face, and added, "At that time, Manager Stobel told me that she had fired you."

That's why Hobby dared to be so cruel to Henry, because Manager Stobel would not support a fired employee.

Henry's already pale face was now even more bloodless, like a crumpled piece of paper, covered with blood and cold sweat.

Only then did he realize that he was wrong, extremely wrong.

I am like a clown, performing hard on the stage, but I don’t know that I have already been abandoned by the audience.

Why on earth...did he go from being a quasi-supervisory employee to his current state?

The radio wave display on Pulse's chest flashed blue light, and he reminded everyone with his unique electronic synthesized voice, "There are still fifteen minutes until the lottery."

Gu Xingyan nodded, "Let's go."

"Okay." Yun Qingzhi turned and left.

Hobby took a reluctant look at the money tree, then glared at Henry fiercely, "Don't try to play tricks, I am always in touch with my plants."

Pulse followed Gu Xingyan and Yun Qingzhi silently and left the bloody scene.

Henry saw that they were about to leave, as if he had grabbed the last straw, and he screamed with all his strength:

"Wait! I'll tell you who's behind this!"

Hobi turned around with an evil smile on his face, "I don't have time to listen to you now."

Henry won't die anyway, so he can wait until the lottery is over before hearing the results.

Hobi followed Gu Xingyan and the other two and was the last one to cross the portal.

The portal was like a magnificent and fantastic nebula, flickering with a hazy light, and there was no response to Henry's heart-wrenching cry.

But Henry knew that the people inside could hear him, so he collapsed and shouted, "It's Badman! Badman from the Space-Time Company!

"I accidentally destroyed the Xirang used in the experiment. He taught me to use this batch of Xirang to frame Wanxiang City and to exchange it for new Xirang to deal with Stobbel.

"It was also him who took me in after I was driven away, and promised that as long as I killed the money tree and made the "No Name" Group lose the land, he would also promise to help my family bear the debts even if I was killed!

“It’s all his fault…”

Henry's voice suddenly became quiet, he fell into a brief moment of thought, and then suddenly woke up.

"He used me! He ruined the reputation of Vientiane City and made Xirang unsellable! He caused Star Company to fall out with the "No Name" Group! He caused my store manager to lose an employee who was a potential supervisor... wuwuwu!"

Henry spoke in increasing pain.

It turned out that it was his stupidity that harmed him.

What he hated was not the store manager Stopbel, but himself who was used, and Badman who had been hiding in the dark from beginning to end!

His store manager had reminded him more than once not to trust outsiders, but he had unknowingly become estranged from the store manager he had been with for decades...

Henry's words were also heard by the store managers on other floating islands.

No one expected that on Monday morning when they participated in the lottery, they would be able to eat fresh and shocking melon.

"Tsk tsk tsk, the Space-Time Company really plays a good hand!"

A store manager with two pointed horns on his head and metallic skin shook the wine glass in his hand, his tone full of sarcasm.

"That's right. This move of using a knife to kill someone is a textbook-level operation."

The store manager, a short and fat man with a mustache, was holding two walnuts in his hand. He smiled with his eyes narrowed into slits, but his tone was sarcastic.

"Oh, poor Stobbel, she's been used as a pawn. Has she not realized it yet?"

A store manager wearing an elaborate medieval dress covered her lips with her hands in lace gloves and chuckled, with a hint of gloating in her tone.

She smiled and looked in the direction of Stopbel.

Stobbel stood on his own floating island, with other store managers from the same company standing behind him. The latter had different expressions, some showing solidarity against the enemy, while others were secretly mocking him.

Stobbel's face was livid, her fists were clenched so tightly that they made a creaking sound, and her silver-gray curly hair seemed to tremble slightly with anger.

"Badman! Just wait for me!" She gritted her teeth, her voice low and murderous.

The store managers around fell silent and dared not discuss anything further.

After all, Henry was right. When Stoebel got angry, it was no joke.

However, compared to gossip, the lottery is the highlight of today.

The store managers quickly returned to their respective studios to prepare for the upcoming lottery results.

The noisy S-class space suddenly became quiet, with only Henry's desperate cries echoing.

The four office buildings nearby were silent because it was not yet the gods' working hours and no one cared about the drama between the companies in the planes.

Inside the studio.

Yun Qingzhi finished the deduction and reported a probability.

"Five million faith points." Pulse reported the number calmly.

Gu Xingyan felt that this was too little compared to last time, but Hobi said that the ability of the money tree would increase tenfold after tasting blood.

She believed in her companions' judgment and spent her faith at the last second.

The retro fax machine at the front desk began to hum.

The auspicious beasts became familiar with the experience and skillfully took on the role of cheerleaders, making the house as lively as New Year's Day.

Cheers spread out through the portal, and the rest of the floating islands were dead silent. Everyone was probably gritting their teeth in hatred.

Gu Xingyan and Yun Qingzhi gave each other a thumbs up, with joyful smiles on their faces.

The pulse wave display screen flashed, happily notifying Vicky and Alexander to come back quickly to celebrate.

In the midst of joy, the cold aura on Hobi's body gradually dissipated, replaced by a warm and gentle aura.

The dark elf's unique deep purple hair gradually faded back to a soft emerald green.

It was as if the vicious and decisive dark elf had never existed, and he was always a cute and optimistic wood elf.

When the other three saw that he had finally returned to his familiar appearance, they all gathered around him and hugged him together.

"Hobi, your money tree is amazing!"

Huo Bichan's golden eyes flashed, and his smile suddenly became awkward.

The wood elf, whose personality had become gentle, sighed and moved his fingers. Henry outside finally ended his torture and turned into dust in an instant.
