Their commission was suspicious.

During this time, the Star Train crew, who had been busy fighting against the Pinocchio conspiracy, finally had a chance to rest.
The nameless passengers on the Starry Sky Train are not the Starry Sky Train itself, so how could they possibly run non-stop?
Pioneering is not just about going to a place and saving it; it also means having the courage to try things you've never tried before.
“Attending the awards ceremony sounds like a lot of fun. Well then, I wish you all the best. Also… if you have any requests during the awards ceremony, such as keeping a video of the two of you so that only the two of you can enjoy it, or if you are unhappy about certain things in the preliminary rounds of the Suleda Grand Event… tell them to look up at the Wish Star God in the sky. The Wish Star God will reason with them,” Chen Luo said.
"Huh? What's going to happen? You already know?" Xing blinked and asked.
"Who knows?"
"Don't be so ridiculous, okay?" Xing complained.
"I've already given you all a cheat code, what else do you want? Alright, let's go, let's go." Chen Luo stood up, grabbed Xing and Liu Ying by the collar, and escorted them out of the bar.
The Star Goddess of Wishes is watching over you... Isn't this a huge advantage already?
"Hahaha, I just remembered something funny! Hahaha!" After watching Liu Ying and Xing head to the hot sand, Chen Luo felt someone put their hand on his shoulder.
"Silver Wolf? What are you trying to say?"
"Help me untie this laughing thing, and I'll tell you! Hahaha," Silver Wolf said, laughing loudly.
"No need," Chen Luo shook his head.
"So you already knew? Hahaha."
"No, it's because this laughter can't be resolved, and no one can help it." Chen Luo looked helpless.
"What if you get shot yourself? Hahaha."
“Of course I’ll be laughing for 10 minutes too. So I basically don’t lend out this revolver.” Chen Luo shrugged.
"Hahaha, that heartless firefly just left like that, without even taking me with her, hahaha... I even specially notified Xing to take firefly for a stroll." Silver Wolf felt like he was about to burst out laughing.
Laughing is indeed easy, but laughing for 10 minutes is indeed difficult.
"So the unknown reason Xing mentioned was you."
"Hahaha, we finally managed to send Firefly back to Pinocchio, so of course we have to find someone to show her around, hahaha... Speaking of which, Firefly used the holographic projection because she didn't pick out her clothes well, can you believe it? Hahaha!" Silver Wolf said while laughing.
"You two are really best friends. Your friendship is enviable! Why don't you pay back the 2000 amusement park coins for him?" Chen Luo suddenly said.
"I have no money, but you can take my life!"
"Fate is fine, but give me a Fate Constellation... No, it seems you've sold all your Fate Constellations, you're already at full Fate... Well then, never mind, you're useless now."
"Hahaha, Chen Luo, you heartless bastard! Hahaha, by the way, get a wishing mirror." Silver Wolf said, pounding Chen Luo's shoulder.
[Ding! You have a new request!]
"You didn't get a mirror? You're really pathetic." Chen Luo took out a hexagonal mirror and tossed it to Silver Wolf.
"Haha, change it! Can I choose one myself? I want to pick a cool one! Haha!" Silver Wolf saw in the bar's chat group that the hexagonal mirrors were actually available for selection.
The reason Silver Wolf didn't get the mirror is because he was always in holographic projection mode, isn't it?
If this mirror could be booked online, Silver Wolf, this hardcore gamer, would definitely be able to book it, but unfortunately it's distributed offline.
Furthermore, Silver Wolf had researched the mirror before coming to the bar and had hacked into a wish-granting chat group, where he discovered tips for boosting wish power...
For example, spending money on in-game purchases for the StarCraft Peace Company's game division.
"Hahaha, if I had known earlier that spending money on games would earn me merit... I probably wouldn't have waited until now to spend money." Silver Wolf's laughter trailed off halfway through.
Silver Wolf felt like he had missed out on a fortune.
The fact that Silver Wolf had dozens of accounts banned by Black Tower shows that Silver Wolf really enjoys playing games, and each account has spent a considerable amount of money on in-game purchases. If you round it up, Silver Wolf must have accumulated a lot of merit points.
Oh no, it's the power of wishes.
"Haha, seriously Chen Luo, can you compensate me for the money I spent on in-game purchases before? Or exchange it for wish power?" Silver Wolf complained directly to Chen Luo, the boss of Void Treasury, the head of the game department of Interstellar Peace Company.
"How could I possibly give it back to you? What are you dreaming about?"
"Do you understand about refunds for minors? Hahaha!" Silver Wolf suddenly realized that he himself was also a minor.
“…Hiss…” Chen Luo gasped.
It seems...that's true!
"I don't care, I want a refund for minors, hahaha!" Silver Wolf really laughed this time.
Laughing, he started rolling around on the ground.
That said, regarding the power of wishes... could minors get a refund?
"Speaking of which, why does spending money in the game increase the power of wishes?" Xiao Shi, who was listening from the side, was completely confused.
"Because the philosophy of the game department of the Interstellar Peace Company, which is headed by Void Treasury, is to donate half of its revenue to charity. And it's an immediate top-up, an immediate rescue. I feel that this mechanism is probably, possibly, perhaps... because they had already anticipated the birth of the Wish Star God," Chen Luo said.
“That makes sense, after all, the Void Treasury is a place that traveled from the future to the present.” Xiao Shi nodded.
“However, the downside of doing this is that because it’s an online rescue, there are many procedures involved, and the wish isn’t entirely clear, so the amount of wish power obtained will be much less,” Chen Luo said.
"So... if you immediately top up your account offline and offer immediate assistance, you'll receive more wish power, right?" Xiao Shi asked, stroking his chin.
“That’s right. It’s actually quite similar to how my wish came true. You’ve been by my side for so long, you should be familiar with the process,” Chen Luo said.
"So... I understand!" Xiao Shi snapped his fingers.
"What...what do you know?" Chen Luo asked hesitantly.
Chen Luo had a bad feeling.
“Old timer, I’ve thought of a perfect way to farm wish power!” Xiao Shi turned to Fu Hua and said.
"What method?"
"This method may require your cooperation."
"Uh, you said..."
"In a little while, I'll use my powers to kidnap all the Pipishi people in Pinocchio, then put them in a bar. You go to Pinocchio to raise funds for their rescue, and tell them that it only takes 10 credits to save one Pipishi person..."
"In this way, he gave us credits, which means he wanted to save the Pipishi people. By releasing them, we fulfilled his wish and gained the power of his wish. Then we can use the credits we obtained to help those Pipishi people who are not in Pinocone but truly need saving... Isn't that saving two groups of Pipishi people with one batch of credits?"
And it doesn't even cost us credits!
"We'll be raking in all the power of wishes by then, okay?!" Xiao Shi said excitedly.
Wow, I know that the Lawyer is a genius!
Xiao Shi thought about it more and more and felt that the plan was extremely feasible.
"..." Chen Luo looked at Xiao Shi in shock.
How did your little brain grow like that?
Why would someone's thinking be so distorted?
Outrageous!
But believe it or not, it actually works.
Because this is truly a reasonable wish... a reasonable exploitation of someone else's wish.
Firstly, in the first step, Xiao Shi, as the Herrscher of Knowledge, could easily kidnap the Pipishi people in the dream. Moreover, kidnapping does not earn wish power, nor does it deduct wish power.
Secondly, given that this rhetoric sounds exactly like a scam, the fact that someone is still willing to spend credits must mean they genuinely want to save the Pipixi people. This wish is perfectly reasonable, which is why the wish was born. The fault doesn't lie with the person who spent the credits, nor with the Pipixi people. So, once the wish is fulfilled, the power of that wish will naturally arise.
After Xiaoshi and his friends earned credits, they donated them to save the Pipixi people who longed to be saved... It is a reasonable wish for the Pipixi people to be saved.
"Damn it, Xiao Shi found the bug!" Chen Luo said, rubbing his head.
"So this method really works?" Xiao Shi was overjoyed after hearing Chen Luo's words.
"Old timer, let's go. Let's hurry! Mei, do you want to come?" Xiao Shi grabbed Fu Hua's hand and led him towards the outside of the bar, politely inviting Raiden Mei along.
"No, no need." Raiden Mei quickly shook her head.
"Xiao Shi, isn't this a bit inappropriate?" Fu Hua asked hesitantly.
"Old fogey, you don't understand. We kidnap the Pipixi people so that other Pipixi people in other places won't be kidnapped. And we definitely won't hurt them when we kidnap them. We can even let them come to the bar for a free lunch! And the credit points we gain can be used for more important things! In other words, we're doing a great deed!"
"And Chen Luo, you're not allowed to fix this bug right now! I can use the second floor of the bar too." Xiao Shi turned to Chen Luo and said.
[Ding! You have a new request!]
“…Okay, no problem, but don’t regret it.” Chen Luo nodded.
Fu Hua had already been tricked by Xiao Shi.
Fu Hua felt that Xiao Shi's words seemed problematic, but at the same time, she also felt that there was nothing wrong with them.
Were the lives of the kidnapped Pipisi people threatened? No.
Was Xiao Shi after the credit points he earned? No.
Will anyone benefit from this? Yes.
It's so hard for her!
Xiao Shi excitedly pulled Fu Hua away from the bar.
Chen Luo then laid a cloth with strange things stuck to its surface on it for Silver Wolf, who was rolling around on the bar floor.
This way, Silver Wolf can clean the bar floor more thoroughly while rolling around, and might even be able to wax it.
Raiden Mei walked over to Chen Luo's side and asked with great concern, "Luo Luo, are you sure you're not going to go out and stop it?"
"Don't worry, Xiao Shi will change his mind in less than two minutes," Chen Luo said.
"Huh?" Raiden Mei was a little confused.
"Don't worry, if Chen Luo were really going to indulge Xiao Shi like this, he would have abandoned all moral principles long ago. Let's leave everything to him. Instead, let's think about what to do tonight," said Herrscher Mei, sitting with her legs crossed.
……
“Pippi people…wait, why are there so few Pipi people during the Golden Hour?” Xiao Shi was just about to use his power of the Herald of Knowledge to determine the location of those Pipi people when he discovered this surprising situation.
Did all those Pipi Westerners go to another dream moment to have a party?
Those Pipisi people who are still alive did not receive an invitation?
That's really pitiful.
Just as Xiao Shi was thinking this, he suddenly spotted a familiar figure.
"Fireworks?" Xiao Shi saw fireworks.
Others might be fooled by the strange appearance that Hanabi is currently wearing, but Xiao Shi saw through her disguise at a glance.
Identity can be faked, but memory cannot, and consciousness even less so.
If consciousness is completely disguised, then that is a different person.
"Oh, isn't this Xiao Shi?" Hua Huo skipped and hopped over to Xiao Shi.
"What are you doing here?" Xiao Shi asked.
"Isn't this about gathering wish power? After all, how could such a novel event be complete without me, Hanabi? Alright, let's not talk about that anymore. Right now, the Masked Fool is organizing a plan to save the Pipishi people. I wonder if you would be willing to spend 20 credits to save one Pipishi person?" Hanabi asked Xiaoshi while holding a small notebook.
"Hmm..." Xiao Shi felt like she had seen this line of dialogue before.
And can the Masked Fool do good deeds?
No, that's not right. We can't really look at the Masked Fool like that.
Although the Masked Fool has always had a bad reputation, he has actually done some good things for the sake of amusement.
Their intentions were certainly not good; they just wanted to have fun, but the result was good.
Therefore, when everyone knows that the Masked Fool has come to their territory, they will only feel annoyed, rather than want to kill him immediately.
Despite his poor reputation, he is not a completely evil person.
But you can't believe the masked fool because of this, or you'll be the one making a fool of yourself.
"100 credits, keep the change." Just as Xiao Shi was thinking, Fu Hua handed 100 credits to Hua Huo.
"100 credits, right... Sambo, we've got a job!" Hanabi pulled out a megaphone from somewhere and shouted into the distance.
Then, a van that seemed completely out of place in the entire Pinocchio suddenly rushed out from around the corner in the distance and stopped in front of Xiao Shi and his friends.
Immediately afterwards, the van door was opened, and Sambo, a familiar face to everyone, stood guard at the door, while countless Pipisi people were trapped inside the van.
“One, two, three, four, five… Alright, alright, come back now, it’s your turn next time,” Sambo said after pulling the sixth Pipisi man who wanted to get off the van back.
