Chapter 28 Trying to Change a Person
"Sorry, we know we were wrong!"

Six children who were no more than seven years old stood in front of Feng Xue, who looked about the same age as them, and apologized. After thinking about it before, he did not use violence as before, but tried to convince others with reason.

Relying on professional-level rhetoric and although using some "little tricks" of threats and intimidation, the dispute was finally resolved without resorting to violence.

While the six little ones were apologizing, Feng Xue walked towards the orphanage building, wanting to see if he could find popular science books such as "100,000 Whys" or "Junior Encyclopedia".

But before he took two steps, he suddenly felt like he was hitting a wall of air. Then the screen froze and shattered like the previous node settlements, turning into the final settlement interface.

[Operation ends, perfect tactics]

[Node settlement: Fantasy +2]

[Drop extraction in progress...]

【You have obtained the gossip tabloid (white).】

……

"The evaluation is still perfect tactics, and there is no additional reward." Feng Xue was a little disappointed, but still focused his attention on the dropped collection -

Name: Tabloid

Category: Smart Use of Collection

Quality: White ordinary

Effect: Dig a hole in it and sit down. No one will notice your presence until you stop reading.

Note: This is an old newspaper, but it may be of special value to some people in need.

……

Feng Xue couldn't help but frown when he saw the effect. Such a heaven-defying item that was almost like an invisibility cloak shouldn't be of only white quality.

Even if we add the necessity to sit and be unable to stop reading the newspaper, it is still far beyond the power that whiteness should have.

However, as doubts arose, Feng Xue quickly found the difference between this collection and other collections -

It needs to be materialized to be effective.

And you need to dig a hole on it.

In other words, does this mean that this is a one-time prop?
Is this the characteristic of the “clever use of collection” type of collection?
Feng Xue thought about it in his mind, but didn't care too much. Compared with the value of the item itself, its identity as a "newspaper" was the most worthy of attention.

Just as Feng Xue can see the changes in the times from the history of the development of modern and contemporary art, this carrier that contains a large amount of information is itself extremely valuable.

Without rushing to look at the next node, Feng Xue tried to open the newspaper, but the result made him a little disappointed.

This newspaper was published on April 451, 4 in the new calendar, which is defined as the "modern" time period. The content is unremarkable. Just like its name, it basically records the downfall of a certain star, the scandal of a certain star, the verbal fights of a certain star, plus some short stories with a bit of color, making up a newspaper with little nutritional value.

If you insist on saying that it is valuable, then perhaps only some particularly fanatical briefing enthusiasts might be interested in any of the tofu pieces above?
Looking at the photos and names of the celebrities, Feng Xue couldn't find any sense of familiarity. The only thing that was familiar was that the newspaper openly declared that the gender of a certain blonde wavy star who looked like a woman was "environmentally friendly plastic bag"...

"I just hope you're just joking..."

Feng Xue wanted to say something but stopped himself. Finally, he thought about the fact that cognition is truth in this world and finally shut his mouth.

Silently turning his gaze to the next node, the two forks in the road this time were both unexpected encounters. Glancing at the photo that was just an ordinary couple photo with a shadow on the face, Feng Xue randomly picked one and clicked on it——

[Accidental choices will bring new possibilities, but remember that all the gifts given by fate have been secretly marked with a price.]

The flag has been set, and the nodes in front of me quickly spread out, turning into a familiar orphanage scene, but this time the position is slightly crooked. Looking at the hole covered by weeds in front of me, a line of text slowly emerged:

[By chance, you noticed that there was a small hole in the corner of the wall at the backyard of the orphanage that people could enter and exit. You chose -]

[1. Climb out! I've long wanted to see the outside world! ]

[2. Tell the teacher! There is a hole here, it is dangerous no matter how you think about it! ]

……

"..." Feng Xue looked at this option. How should I put it? It was a bit complicated. If he considered it based on common sense, as a boy, and the kind of boy who was born to be a gangster, he should have chosen to crawl out and see the outside world.

From the player's perspective, the potential benefits of risky behavior are higher than those of conservative choices.

But this time he planned to try to see if he could have a more peaceful ending, or at least not become a gangster.

It's not that he doesn't want to inherit the memories of his predecessor, but he feels that by playing the role of a gangster, all he can get in the short term is what a child with no ability or background but who is good at fighting knows, which is not as much as the information he can obtain from exploring the node himself.

Moreover, he is not sure now whether this golden finger is an excerpt from the past as a node, or can rewrite the past through the node. If it is the former, it is fine, but if it is the latter, as long as he can achieve a relatively peaceful ending, is it possible to escape the fate of this death row prisoner?

With this thought in mind, he looked away and chose an option that would even be despised by young people -

"Sue the teacher!"

After making the choice, the scene in front of him changed. Several teachers were standing in front of the dog hole talking seriously, while in front of Feng Xue, there was a beautiful female teacher who was half squatting and facing him with her cleavage. She was handing a candy to him with a smile on her face.

At the same time, a line of text appeared in his mind:

[Thanks to your timely notification, the dog hole was successfully repaired and you got the little red flower (blue).]

Name: Little Red Flower
Category: Survival support

Quality: Blue Excellent

Effect: San value +10, Dream +10
Note: An ordinary little red flower is the dream reward for the children in the orphanage.

……

"I always feel like I've lost out, what should I do?" Feng Xue looked at his san value that had been restored to full value, but he couldn't be happy, because there was no such thing as an overflow of san value, and the survival-boosting collection would only take effect when it was activated. In other words, he lost 9 san value.

After taking a glance at the supernatural photos in the collection column, Feng Xue could only sigh quietly, and then looked at the next node again.

What a coincidence, we meet unexpectedly again.

"Tsk..." There was no choice this time, so Feng Xue could only click in. But as the picture began to expand, his expression became darker, because he was very familiar with this scene!

Before Feng Xue could even think of getting lucky, the words popped out as if to finish off the attack -

【Children are always keen on playing games. As one of them, you are no exception. This is a role-playing game about heroes and monsters. Will you become a hero who saves the people, or a monster who slaughters innocent people, or an unknown civilian? Make your choice.】

【1. Scissors】

[2. Stone]

【Three, cloth】

"grass……"
