When I traveled through time and became a player, I just wanted to commit suicide

sunset.

Walking on the busy streets at dusk, Li Shanren suddenly stopped, looked at the bustling crowd, and for a moment didn't know where to go.

"It seems like the clue is broken. What do you think we should do, Hummingbird?"

The short man behind him had a trace of cold sweat on his forehead. "Please give me a few days, I will definitely help you find that person."

What happened just now really made him realize that once this seemingly gentle financial sponsor in front of him got furious, he would be even more terrifying than a tiger in the jungle.

"How many days?" Li Shanren smiled helplessly, "I'm afraid there won't be many days left, maybe even less than an hour."

After that, he took out a small bag of silver and threw it to Hummingbird, "The bill is settled, you can leave."

"Okay, if you need anything, you can come back to me."

The hummingbird accepted the reward, bowed slightly, and then turned and left.

Although he didn't quite understand what the financier just said, he knew as a person in this line of work that sometimes the more you know, the faster you die, so he didn't ask any more questions.

He always just does his part.

Li Shanren looked up at the sky which was about to fall into night, and silently calculated: "It is less than an hour since the last time I went back..."

If time does not go back this time, he can go back to find Hummingbird again and issue a search commission.

If time could go back again, the remaining time would probably not be enough for him to find the boy.

It would be better to wait until time goes back, then go to the place where the young man had stayed, find him, and find out the reason for the time going back.

"Next, we can only wait slowly..."

......

The stolen goods vault.

The atmosphere at this time was a bit delicate.

The thief girl named "Feirut" showed her little fangs, frowned her delicate eyebrows, and looked at Subaru Natsuki with vigilance.

"Hey! Master Rom, who is this guy? Didn't I tell you that there would be a distinguished guest today and that you shouldn't allow anyone else to be present?"

"That's right, but this kid said he had something to talk to you about, and it seems to be related to today's business, so you can't say he is an irrelevant person." Uncle Rome explained.

"You won't sell me out, will you, Master Rom?" The thief girl looked at the bald old man with suspicion.

"How is that possible? Given the relationship between us, would I sell you out?" Grandpa Rom rolled his eyes. "This guy seems to be interested in what you brought back today. In other words, he is also one of the buyers."

Having said that, Master Rom turned around and patted Subaru on the shoulder, "The rest of the negotiations will depend on you. I am only responsible for providing a trading venue."

After he finished speaking, the burly old man walked back behind the front desk.

"Huh? You are also a buyer? I don't know anyone like you. Where on earth did you come from?"

Firut still remained vigilant.

"No matter where I come from, you just want to exchange what you got for money." Natsuki Subaru finally found a chance to talk and shrugged, "Anyway, I want the gem-studded badge on your body. You deliver the goods and I pay for it. It's that simple."

"That makes sense, but why do you even know what it is? Are you also a person involved?"

"Uh...you can think of it that way."

Felt curled his lips when he heard that. "Let's take a look at your offer first. But let me make it clear first, Master Rom is here. If you dare to do anything, be careful that Master Rom will beat you up."

"Although I think your vigilance is within a reasonable range, look at my physique and I don't look like someone who would use force!" Subaru Natsuki spread his hands and defended himself.

"Well, that's hard to say."

After a while, the two of them finally sat side by side in front of the stolen goods vault.

"Ha... Uncle Rom, you added too much water to the milk. Apart from the color, what's the difference between it and water?" The thief girl put down the cup full of milk and complained.

"Hasn't it always smelled the same for all these years? Aren't you used to it yet?" Grandpa Rom stretched out his big hand like a palm-leaf fan, ruffling the girl's short golden hair and said.

Although it looked like she was trying very hard, the girl seemed to be used to it and didn't move at all.

Judging from their intimate behavior, the two seem to have known each other for a long time.

"Well...can you let me take a look at that badge first?" Subaru Natsuki went straight to the point.

"Hey, is this what you're looking for?"

Firut casually took something out of his jacket pocket and placed it on the table.

It was a palm-sized badge, and it was impossible to tell what material it was made of. There was a complex and exquisite dragon pattern on the surface. A red gem was embedded in the open dragon's mouth, reflecting a faint red light.

Seeing the beautiful emblem, Subaru Natsuki was stunned.

As a high school dropout from an ordinary family, he had never seen such exquisite decorations in real life.

"alright--"

Firutra let out a long sigh and put the badge away with her backhand.

"Now that you've seen the item, it's your turn to show your hand. This item is obviously worth a lot of money. If you can't afford the price or bring something to match it, don't blame me for kicking you out later."

"I'm so sad that a customer who came to me on his own initiative is so heartless... But don't worry, although I'm a poor man who has nothing to lose, my products will definitely satisfy you. Watch out! Five lightning shots!"

Subaru Natsuki whipped out his cell phone at lightning speed, turned on the flash and the camera's continuous shooting mode, pointed it at Firut's young face, and quickly took five photos.

"Hey, hey, hey! Do you want to die, bro?"

Firut, whose face was covered with the flash, raised his hand to block the light and said angrily.

As soon as she put her hand down, before she could continue complaining, a glowing silver object came into her sight, showing her slightly panicked expression just now.

"This is......"

"This is what I want to trade. It's a high-level magic tool called 'Meteor'. It can cut and save a certain moment. It can be used by people without magic power."

Subaru Laiyue calmly revealed his trump card.

However, when Felt saw this item, he just said "Oh" indifferently, then turned his head to look behind the stage, "Master Rom, how much can this meteor sell for?"

"No way, when faced with such a high-tech product, you only care about how much it can sell for? Don't you have even the slightest bit of vain reaction?" Subaru Natsuki covered his chest, indicating that he was a little hurt.

"I'm really sorry for not satisfying your vanity. I only care about how much profit this deal can bring me. Of course you have to ask clearly about something you have never seen before. Don't think I'm as easy to fool as a three-year-old child. In this regard, I only trust Grandpa Rom." Firut said nonchalantly, and then continued to look at Grandpa Rom.

"Well... I don't know the exact amount. Although your badge can obviously be exchanged for a lot of money, no matter what, ordinary decorations can't be compared with a high-level magic tool. So I think the value of this guy's things is obviously higher than your badge."

Lord Rom gave his own evaluation.

"See, I told you, you will definitely make a lot of money in this deal. Hurry up and hand over the money and the goods." Subaru Natsuki said impatiently.

"You're right, but..." Felt snapped his fingers, "There's a problem. You're not the only buyer I have. Although your proposal is very tempting, I'd like to see the offer from another buyer. Maybe her bid will be higher than yours?"

"Besides, she originally asked me to steal this badge. She was willing to spend ten Saint Gold Coins to buy it, but you just interrupted her. No matter what, I have to meet her first."

"Can I know how much ten holy gold coins are worth..." Subaru Natsuki curled the corner of his mouth and looked at Grandpa Rom.

"Holy Gold Coins are a type of currency made of rare supernatural metals. They are usually only circulated among high-level supernatural beings. At least ten gold luxos are needed to exchange for one Holy Gold Coin, and they are often out of stock."

Grandpa Rom said.

"As for the badge that Felt brought back, if I were to sell it to someone else, I could only get 20 to 30 gold luxos at most, which is equivalent to about two holy gold coins."

"That means the buyer is willing to pay several times more than the price. This is too exaggerated!" Subaru Natsuki said in surprise.

I thought it was a sure deal, but I didn't expect this kind of turn of events to happen.

"What are you afraid of? In my opinion, if you put this meteor on the black market, you can at least sell it for twenty holy gold coins. If you put it up for auction or meet a collector who wants to buy it, you will definitely be able to sell it for a higher price." Grandpa Rom said slowly.

"Hey, hey, hey, since this thing is so valuable, don't think about it. Just trade it directly. Maybe I will regret it later." Not wanting to cause trouble, Subaru Natsuki immediately said to Felt.

"Tsk tsk, but from the look on my face, I don't think he'll give up that easily."

Felt showed a smug smile, but this smile, which seemed quite cute, looked extremely evil in the eyes of Subaru Natsuki.

"Since you are willing to pay at least 20 Saint Gold Coins, I will definitely ask the other buyer to pay at least the same price. Even if you regret it, I have no objection."

"Aren't you worried that the deal will fall through by raising the price like this?" Subaru Laiyue asked anxiously.

"But the guy's expression tells me that even if the other party can't afford the price, you will still take it~"

Felt said confidently.

"Okay, okay, then when will the other buyer arrive?" Faced with such a bad trading partner, Subaru Natsuki could only surrender and asked with a depressed look on his face.

"It should be here soon. The agreed time is before sunset. The transaction location is here. With Master Rom as a witness, the safety of the transaction can be guaranteed." Firut estimated.

As soon as he finished speaking, there were three loud knocks on the door.

There was silence.

“You didn’t tell the guests the secret code?” Grandpa Rom turned his head and looked at Firut.

"It seems not. I'll go open the door."

Felt jumped off the chair and walked towards the door.

The burly Grandpa Rom turned around silently, picked up a three-foot-long wooden stick from the shelf and held it in his hand. The stick was thick in the front and thin in the back, and the thick end had many hard thorns, making it look like a wooden mace.

"Oh, he looks very reliable." Subaru Natsuki couldn't help but smile when he saw this.

"There's no other way. I'm probably the only person that child can rely on. It's always better to be cautious." Grandpa Rom said with a complicated look.

"Hey, but why aren't you so cautious when facing me? Aha, I really was underestimated!" said Subaru Natsuki.

"Not really, but someone of your status and position should not bother to argue with small people like us." Uncle Rom suddenly smiled.

"Huh? What's my status?" Subaru Natsuki looked confused.

"He carries a precious meteor, wears neat and tidy clothes, and doesn't panic like ordinary civilians when encountering things... Taking all these characteristics into consideration, the young man must be of a very high status. I am very good at judging people."

"I can only say that you have a very rich imagination..."

"Anyway, I am still very grateful to you."

"Thank me for what?"

There was confusion in Subaru Natsuki's eyes again.

“You said before that you have a relationship with the owner and want to redeem the things and return them to him. But since you already know this place and know that the thief is Feruto, you only need to report it to the guards. With your status and position, people like us will not be able to stay here. But you chose a gentle way to deal with it. For this alone, I have to thank you.”

Grandpa Rom sighed.

“So it’s actually possible…!”

This operation left Lai Yue Subaru dumbfounded. He really didn't expect this.

"What are you two whispering about? This is my guest. Is it okay for her to sit here?"

Firut came back with a tall woman.

When Lai Yue Subaru's eyes fell on the woman, he couldn't help but be stunned.

She was a woman in her early twenties, wearing a black coat with a bold "V" neckline in the front, revealing her snow-white and slightly sickly skin. The leather clothes were tightly attached to her body, outlining her seductive curves.

Her waist-length black hair was draped behind her and tied into a long braid. There was a beauty mole at the corner of her drooping eye. Combined with her revealing clothes, she had a graceful and charming temperament.

The woman walked slowly towards him with graceful steps, which made Lai Yue Subaru's heart beat fast.

A guy like him who had no luck with women in his native world could not control his reaction when facing such a beauty.

Soon, the woman sat next to Lai Yue Subaru, and the faint fragrance emanating from her made Lai Yue Subaru feel dazed.

"It looks like there are too many people here today." The beautiful woman tilted her head and smiled, her voice mature and intellectual, "According to what we agreed before, apart from this old man, it should be just you and me here. This young man is..."

"He is a buyer who came in midway, but let me make it clear that he came to me on his own and I did not leak any information. But he seemed to be able to afford a higher price, so I let him join in." Firut said, sitting on the side.

"I see..." The beautiful woman looked thoughtful, "My name is Elsa, what's your name, little brother?"

"I am Subaru Raizuki!"

Not wanting to lose face, Subaru Natsuki straightened his chest and said as he came back to his senses from his trance.
