Arknights, Suika's Messenger Journey

He also received news that the man was coming west.

He hadn't received any news for several days and thought that the other party had missed him, and he felt fortunate about it.

As a result, he turned around and heard the news that the other party appeared in his jurisdiction.

While reporting the news through the Inquisitor's information network, he also sent people to keep an eye on Suixiang.

According to previous intelligence, the reason for such a big commotion was that there was a conflict between the two sides.

So he decided to just monitor without contacting.

In this way, he can not only ensure the completion of the task assigned by his superiors, but also ensure that the other party will not go crazy in the town.

After all, for judges like them who have been operating in a town for decades, the safety and stability of the town are the first thing they need to consider.

To this end, he specifically instructed his men to pass on the message that the spies were not allowed to contact the target and only needed to keep watch nearby.

Chapter 519: Useless Abilities

After a good sleep, Suika woke up to find that she was not being harassed anymore.

Shanghai patrolled back and forth between the windows and the door all night, but didn't catch a single prey.

Everyone expressed deep regret about this.

Despite her regret, she decided to spend the money in the box first.

As for consumption methods...

Of course, it’s spending money to draw cards.

Speaking of which, Suixiang considers herself to be a good and frugal child, and generally speaking, she doesn't like to spend money lavishly.

It's just that this trip to Iberia made her feel a little uncomfortable. When she felt uncomfortable, she felt pressured, and when she felt pressured, she had to vent it. She didn't want to deliberately find trouble and kill people, so she could only use other methods.

The method she thought of was to spend money.

A penguin said it well, use salary to create happiness.

Although she didn't know if it would work, she thought it should be fine.

After all, consumption is indeed a happy thing.

A minute later, she looked at her three new abilities with a frown on her face.

That’s right, three.

She originally thought of pulling one card and then stopping, as she had other uses for the remaining money. However, after she finished pulling the card and saw what appeared, she was very skeptical and thought there was something wrong with the card, so she pulled a second card.

When the second ability came out, her eyes were red and she threw in the remaining money again. A few seconds later, she looked at the third ability that appeared. She was so excited that she thought the reason was that she didn't draw enough so she wanted to continue betting, but when she touched it, she found that she had no money left.

For a moment she felt like a salted fish exposed to the sun.

The whole person becomes desireless.

She looked down at the three new abilities she had acquired and the fourth ability derived from friendship, then closed her eyes peacefully.

She vowed to ask old lady Yakumo if she had any medicine to regret or something that could turn back time, because looking at the three new abilities made her feel as furious as burning wind and scorching earth.

The three abilities she gained belonged to three people of the same origin.

The abilities are the ability to play melancholic sounds, the ability to play manic sounds, and the ability to play fantasy sounds.

After acquiring these three abilities at the same time, she also gained an ability extended from the three abilities - the ability to play musical instruments without using her hands.

……

Suika naturally recognized these three people, the three spirit sisters from Gensokyo, who were also professional musicians.

Usually acts as background board and DJ in various plots.

The eldest sister Lunasa of the Prismriba family, the second sister Melulan and the third sister Lilica (they are not the real ones but the spirits created by the deceased fourth sister Leila in the appearance of the three of them. However, Leila was an ordinary person and died in the end, leaving only three immortal and undying spirits alive, so they are called the Three Spirit Sisters).

As musicians, their fighting power is naturally not up to par. After all, the spirit is the lowest existence in Gensokyo, and even its mystery cannot compare to the famous stupid ice fairy - Cirno 9.

Just now, Suika used the ability of the eldest sister in the first shot, and then used the ability of the second sister in the second shot, and finally used the ability of the third sister in the third shot, and finally activated the fusion card to form the fourth ability.

However, these four abilities are useless to Suika except for entertainment.

But she was so excited to reward herself with this, and she spent so much money, but she only got three, no, four entertainment abilities. How could she not feel depressed?

After lying in bed until noon, Suika finally recovered and slapped herself in the face, vowing never to be a gambler again before exploring these abilities.

The final answer is that it seems to be a little useful, but it also seems not to be useful...it can be summarized as if it exists.

The only advantage is that after acquiring these four abilities, Suika naturally "understood" various music theories and how to use musical instruments.

This is the benefit that ability brings to Suixiang.

But to use these abilities... Suika has to buy her own instruments, because these abilities are just abilities, and although they come with instructions, they don't come with their own props.

The thought of this made her balls ache.

She is not Tutu, so how could she carry a musical instrument with her wherever she goes?

But when she thought of Tutu, she had another idea.

After all, Tutu guides and amplifies the other party's desires through music, and she can use music to make the other party's mood change repeatedly between depression and mania and forcibly destroy the other party's psychological defenses. It can be called the Terra version of the Twelve Labor Emotion Array (the third sister's fantasy sound does not exist in this world, so it will not affect the mind).

It just requires musical instruments.

As for musical instruments... She looked at her bag and was afraid that apart from small items like flutes and xiaos, her backpack could not accommodate larger instruments.

Therefore, it is urgent for Suika to get a space prop.

This thing may not be available in Terra, and even if it is, it may not be something that Suika can afford.

So Suika naturally set her sights on her "hometown" Gensokyo.

If you want to get space-related props from Gensokyo, the best choice is naturally the old fox Yakumo Yukari.

After all, what others play with is space.

But I don’t know if the items I got from Gensokyo can be used here without spending money.

Although she wasn't sure, she decided to give it a try.

If you want to get the space props from Yakumo Yukari, you naturally have to curry favor with her.

Thinking of this, Suixiang slapped her forehead. She seemed to have promised to bring a book to Yakumo Yukari before, but she just forgot about it.

Fortunately, she remembered that on the way back from the restaurant yesterday, she seemed to see a bookstore not far away.

Although I have no money in my pocket, I can still take out a few hundred.

Thinking of this, she picked up her suitcase and went out excitedly.

The people who were watching around became excited when they saw her go out.

This guy is totally unreasonable. Logically speaking, if he had something to hide, after discovering that his place had been invaded, he would either make a big fuss or at least change rooms.

But she acted as if she hadn't noticed and continued to live in the same house.

If the Inquisitor had not repeatedly ordered no further contact, they would have sent people in to investigate.

Moreover, he didn't get up until almost noon the next day. I don't know how this little brat got such a good sleep.

You know, they kept an eye on Suika all night without sleep. The people who were on shift this morning didn't even have breakfast. When they were about to go buy something to fill their stomachs at noon, this guy came out.

Everyone followed Suixiang out with resentment in their heads.

Suika quickly arrived at the bookstore.

She was very satisfied with her memory.

Although it was just a casual glance, I was not looking in the wrong place.

Chapter 520: Transaction with Gensokyo

When she entered the bookstore, Suixiang started flipping through the books without saying a word.

Choosing a book requires careful consideration.

No reference books are needed. After all, most of Terra's tools are related to Originium, and the truly advanced knowledge such as the construction and materials science of mobile modules and high-speed warships is not available in ordinary bookstores.

So the direction Suika chose was books related to Terra's various histories and cultures.

Soon, she picked out more than ten books of each type of story and literature and carried them to the counter.

"Boss, check out!"

……

"A total of 57 Dobloons (Iberian gold coins)"

"What, 57+ Bron!" Suika's eyes widened.

Even though Dobrom depreciated severely after the Great Tranquility, it was still a gold coin, and its purchasing power did not decrease due to the decline of Iberia's national strength.

Especially since the production of this thing stopped after the Great Silence, the gold coins circulating on the market now are still from more than 60 years ago.

So you can imagine how strong this purchasing power is.

Cuixiang calculated on her fingers and found that if 57 more Broons were converted into Lungmen coins, it would be around 40000.

She only had six or seven dobloons left in her pocket, which she thought was enough, but it turned out to be far from enough.

"My dear little guest, books are never cheap. After all, knowledge is priceless.

And you have chosen many books.

I got a discount on it, otherwise it would have been impossible to get it for less than 600 yuan at the original price."

The boss looked sincere.

"Wait a minute, then. Don't put these books back, so I don't have to get them again. I'll go get the money."

Suixiang agrees with her boss's words that knowledge is priceless.

Moreover, Suixiang doesn't attach much importance to money. For her, as long as the problem can be solved with money, there is no need for her to think of other solutions.

After all, her head still needs to be used to store wine.

"okay!"

After the boss agreed, Suixiang turned around and walked out.

Just as she went to withdraw the money, the surveillance people came in one after another. After asking about the conversation between Suika and the boss, they flipped through all the books that Suika had chosen.

But Suixiang originally only bought the book and not for anything else.

So those who think too much are doomed to fail.

But these people did not give up.

They didn't believe that Suixiang, who was the person being paid special attention by the judge, was really just here to buy books.

And how could a normal person buy so many books at one time?

However, the bookstore is not too far from the bank, and they certainly won't be able to find out the secrets in the books in the process.

Fortunately, these books are basically duplicates, so they found another one to replace the original one and prepared to take the books selected by Cuixiang back and check them slowly.

Before Suika returned, the books were completely replaced.

Seeing this, the boss broke out in sweat.

He was somewhat reluctant to sell books.

After all, as soon as these people came in, they slapped the court sign on his face, which scared the boss silly.

You have to know that for ordinary people, the Tribunal is like a devil's den. Once you go in, you will be skinned alive even if you come out alive.

Although he has some background, which is why he was able to open this bookstore, he is no match for the group of lunatics in the Tribunal.

I thought I would meet a big client this time, but it turned out to be a big trouble.

When Suixiang put the money on the table, he felt like crying.

He wanted to give up the deal, but he didn't dare.

He could only put the money away with a bitter look on his face, and then pushed the books in front of Suixiang.

"Boss...I remember the books weren't in this order when I left, right?"

Suika's words made the boss sweat profusely again.

"Haha, it's not that you bought so much, sir. I was just curious about what books you chose, so I helped you organize them..."
