Chapter 8 The Terrifying Cashier: Not a Single Penny Less!

When I heard Yun Zhenyue's words.

Everyone present was dumbfounded.

Working?

She acts on a whim.

Do those stores need you to work for them?
They hadn't heard anything about the Shadow Shop hiring.

And this shop is an A-rank dungeon!
Notorious for being ruthless and cruel.

The goods inside are extremely expensive.

The cashier's attitude was extremely bad.

They knew this information before the bizarre marriage.

Surely she knows everything?

I thought it would be the same as reality.

Upon hearing this, Han Sumei immediately fell silent.

But a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

Although I didn't see Yun Zhenyue begging her.

But I heard about her foolish behavior.

I can't wait to see her get killed in a bizarre way.

The other female players also did not offer any prompts.

Anyway, it has nothing to do with them.

I'm happy to see Yun Zhenyue go to her death.

Apart from Dragon Kingdom.

Audiences from other countries also gloated.

[Hahaha, this stupid woman, she actually thought about getting a job?]

Do you really think that doing a short job will make up for the cost of groceries?

This is practically suicide; it seems the first person to die in this bizarre marriage is about to emerge.

[Hmph~ It really comes down to our Great Han Kingdom. Han Su-mei's boyfriend knows the strange things about the store; do other people have such valuable connections?]

[I never imagined Park Dae-geun was so well-hidden. He may be a bit ugly, but he's incredibly capable!]

at the same time.

The audience in the Dragon Kingdom were all startled, sensing that something was wrong.

They didn't see Gu Yuan give Yun Zhenyue any strange coins.

I just took a membership card whose authenticity I don't know.

In other words, she wasn't joking; she meant to put her words into action.

Oh my god, I knew she was naturally a bit ditzy, but I didn't expect her to be this ditzy.

[Ugh~ How can you confuse the real world with the supernatural world? Buying things and then trying to make up for it with a job? This is ridiculous!]

Oh no!

I'm starting to feel like I can't bear to watch anymore.

Didn't Gu Yuan give her a membership card?

[That card was used to prop up the table; there couldn't possibly be any money inside.]

The Dragon Kingdom's Bizarre Marriage Research Headquarters

All the staff present froze.

Minister Wang Xiuwen was furious.

What was she thinking?

"Without ghost coins, how will we buy groceries?"

"Why did you refuse Gu Yuan's help!"

One of the staff members said pessimistically, "The best thing to do now is for her to go back and ask Gu Yuan for the ghost coins."

"But now it seems impossible."

"The eerie cashier at the Shadow Shop is a ruthless individual who has killed players in bizarre marriages multiple times without showing any mercy."

"Based on tens of thousands of simulations conducted by artificial intelligence, the probability of Yun Zhenyue being killed is 99.99%."

"If Han Sumei could speak up for her, that would be great, since her husband knows about the store's strange practices."

"That might offer a glimmer of hope."

They are unable to communicate with players who have entered into bizarre marriages.

Otherwise, they would definitely have persuaded Yun Zhenyue to give up the idea.

It's worth noting that players from other countries all carry some kind of "ghost coins".

In this first mission, none of the previous marriage matching events resulted in player deaths.

Is it possible that after finally seeing a chance to succeed, we'll fail on the very first mission?

Upon hearing this, Wang Xiuwen's eyes showed despair.

Now all I can do is pray silently.

That cashier was spared Yun Zhenyue's life.

But deep down he knew it was impossible.

The Ghost Shop.

Everyone entered one after another.

I saw a terrifying and eerie cashier.

He stood behind the cashier, tall and thin, with deep-set eyes on his pale, paper-white face.

Under the stark white light, his gaze swept over everyone, revealing a greedy expression.

The sight of starving diners staring at the food was chilling. No one dared to look at each other, and they quickly dispersed to choose their dishes.

Although the ghost cashier is a bit scary, this store has a wide variety of goods.

Not only do they have all kinds of daily necessities, but they also have meat and vegetables.

Yun Zhenyue carefully selected today's dishes.

She's almost finished with the food she brought yesterday and needs to replenish it.

"Let's buy some meat, my husband likes to eat meat."

"I'll buy some more vegetables and milk. Oh, and we're running out of toilet paper."

Yun Zhenyue spent half a day shopping, carrying a bunch of items, but not too many.

After all, I'll have to work to pay it back later. These things aren't priced, so they must be common items and probably not very expensive.

Until she stood at the back of the crowd.

That's when she realized that, apart from her, players from other countries had very few options.

Some took only a little meat, while others held only a piece of green vegetable.

This amount of food is hardly enough to eat, is it?

Cloud Pillow Moon's eyes were bewildered.

Seeing that she had taken a lot of food, the women couldn't help but look at her strangely.

"Dead."

"Doesn't she know that the most expensive things are those that can be eaten?"

"With so many items, it must cost at least fifty or sixty ghost coins."

"They even dared to take toilet paper, that's too extravagant."

The group whispered amongst themselves.

It's time to settle the accounts.

The cunning cashier looked at the women who had only taken a few items.

A cold and impatient look appeared in his deep-set eyes.

However, due to the strict restrictions imposed by the store.

He couldn't attack players who had already paid him.

Several female players nervously handed over the ghost coins they had brought.

The cunning cashier snorted coldly.

"You lowly rat."

"If you buy such a small amount of stuff again next time, don't even think about leaving."

Upon hearing this, the female players looked terrified, their bodies went numb, and they hurriedly grabbed their belongings and left.

Only Yun Zhenyue, Han Sumei from Dahan Kingdom, and Yamada Aiko from Xiao Rizi remained on the scene.

Han Sumei did select a few items.

"17 Ghost Coins".

The cashier stared at her with a cold gaze.

"So expensive?"

Han Sumei was shocked by the price; she didn't have enough of the ghost coins she had brought. Fortunately, her husband said he knew the cashier, so she put on a fawning expression.

"Sir, my husband lives on the fourth floor of a nearby apartment building. His name is Park Dae-geun."

"You should know him, right? Could you give me a slight discount for his sake?"

The cashier frowned upon hearing this.

"Park Dae Geun?"

He did recognize this strange creature; they had chatted briefly at the store before, and he knew it was also a formidable ghost.

but--

What face does Park Dae-geun have?
The Shadow Shop is located throughout the entire eerie world. Even the cashier himself possesses formidable strength, let alone those beings above him. He doesn't need to give any eerie face.

What's more, the manager is coming to inspect today.

He couldn't risk being punished by offering a discount.

The cashier sneered impatiently, "Him?"

"Who does he think he is?"

"I want a discount too."

"Not a single one of these goods can be missing a single ghost coin, otherwise..."

Hear this.

Han Sumei was terrified.

I never expected the cashier to be so ruthless.

She never expected that Park Dae-geun would lie to her!
What happened to the promise of getting to know the ghost cashier?
In the end, it only angered him.

Sweat immediately beaded on Han Sumei's forehead, and her scalp tingled. Without a discount, she simply couldn't afford these things.

I was hoping to select more items to increase Park Dae-geun's favorability.

Now I even feel like killing him!
"This adult"

"How about I put these things back? I promise everything is clean."

Han Sumei was caught in a dilemma and could only beg the cunning cashier to let her go.

But all that awaited her was the latter's covetous gaze.

"Put it back?"

"There is no such rule in the store."

"If you can't afford it, then pay for it with your body."
