Their commission was suspicious.

After Alicia handed the communicator to Chen Luo, she saw that Chen Luo had added her as a friend using her communicator's permissions.

As soon as Alicia got her communicator, she heard a message coming through it.

Moreover, the message was sent by Chen Luo.

"What is this?" Alicia asked curiously as she opened the message.

"Here's the photo of you in women's clothing," Chen Luo said.

[Ding! Mission complete]

"...You call this a cross-dressing photo? You just photoshopped your face onto my picture!" Alicia's face instantly fell when she clicked on the photo with great anticipation.

It's not impossible to find Alicia's photos on the internal network of Firemoth, after all, Alicia is very popular among Firemoth.

"Although the photoshopped image doesn't show any obvious signs of being photoshopped, it's definitely photoshopped. What kind of cross-dressing photo is this?"

"Then tell me whether I'm wearing women's clothing in the photo or not, whether I'm wearing women's clothing or not," Chen Luo said matter-of-factly.

My face is my face, and my women's clothing is my women's clothing, so why shouldn't it be considered my women's clothing?

"But the problem is, if I want a photo like this, I can just Photoshop it myself, right? It doesn't require any skill. I'm not satisfied, so find another way to appease me!" Alicia said angrily as she saved the photo.

Surprisingly, Chen Luo's face looks perfectly natural on Alicia, perhaps due to the advanced Photoshop skills.

"Wait, why was this photo suddenly destroyed?"

"Oh, I set it so that the photo would be destroyed immediately after being saved," Chen Luo said.

"...How stingy! They won't even let me save the photoshopped pictures."

"You still keep the photoshopped image?" Chen Luo countered.

“But this is the first message you’ve ever sent me, Little Lolo,” Alicia said after blinking.

"Don't call me Little Luo Luo." Chen Luo felt a little awkward about being called that.

Because only my own mother would call me that.

"Let's call her... Lololololololo..."

"..."

However, upon closer reflection, Chen Luo is under 18 years old this year, but Alicia is already over 5 years old, so it seems there's nothing wrong with the other party calling her that.

Then I won't argue with Grandma Alicia.

"Alright, Aunt Alicia, call me whatever you want." Chen Luo gave up resisting.

"Alicia... Auntie?! That's too much! How can you address a young girl like that?" Alicia looked at Chen Luo with trembling eyes.

How could such cold words come out of your 37-degree mouth?

"Understood, Aunt Alicia."

"..." Alicia suddenly fell silent, then stood up from the sofa.

"What's wrong, Aunt Alicia?"

"Don't call me Aunt Alicia anymore!"

"Just call it that."

"..."

My father once said that we must use magic to defeat magic.

"I'm leaving." Alicia stood up from the sofa and turned to leave.

"Take care, Aunt Alicia."

"Don't call me Aunt Alicia!" Alicia shouted angrily at Chen Luo before running away.

Hurry, hurry! We need to find a skilled technician to restore the photo that Chen Luo just destroyed.

This is what they call a "dark history." I'll definitely use the photos they posted themselves to mock them, to get revenge for them calling me "auntie."

I'm furious!

Chen Luo breathed a sigh of relief as he watched Alicia's departing figure.

I can finally go home.

After locking the doors and windows and drawing the curtains, Chen Luo took out a few items from the doll collection and placed them on the floor.

After the item was placed on the floor, it remained silent for a moment before starting to move.

These were actually four spiders, each the size of a fist, made of soul steel.

"Keep an eye on the house. Call me if anyone comes," Chen Luo instructed the doll as he pushed open the bedroom door.

Upon hearing Chen Luo's command, the four fist-sized spiders suddenly trembled and instantly transformed into countless smaller spiders, which began to crawl into the shadows throughout the room.

Split is the characteristic of these four Soul Steel Spiders, and they also possess the ability to self-destruct and conduct reconnaissance and surveillance.

I wonder if anyone would have a heart attack if they saw this room full of spiders...

Chapter 471 The Ancestor's Playing Pretty Clever Games

"Sigh..." Chen Luo had just returned home when he started sighing.

"What's wrong? Did you run into some trouble? Tell me so I can have a laugh." Danzhu immediately came over after hearing the sigh that sounded like someone had something on their mind.

"I just got back from the Mebius Lab, and now I'm being asked to go to another world to help move things. This is ridiculous."

Chen Luo had just returned to the bar and was about to go straight home when Mona suddenly appeared and invited him to her house. Although Chen Luo didn't want to go, she had already sent him a request.

The first task was fine, but the second one that followed immediately put Chen Luo to do hard labor.

Fortunately, Chen Luo had a lot of puppets, so he didn't have to lift a finger, and he also made a profit of 100 primal stones.

"Do you think these people really can't do anything? Why do they ask me for everything?" Chen Luo was a little annoyed.

This doesn't mean Chen Luo was unhappy; in fact, he was very happy, since so many people were lining up to fleece him of raw stones.

Chen Luo never thought he had too many raw stones, but he just couldn't understand it.

"Exactly, exactly. People need to have the ability to think and live independently. It's hard to imagine how these people were spoiled into such extreme laziness." Danzhu nodded seriously.

What kind of people does Chen Luo know?

"Oh, right... I want to buy a figurine, Alo, can you buy me one? Please." After condemning those who had no capacity for civil conduct, Danzhu changed the subject.

[Ding! You have a new request!]

"..."

Is it possible that Danzhu was also one of those useless senior sisters?

"Okay, I think I know why."

Chen Luo now roughly understands why these people have become so useless.

Behind every seemingly useless but actually mature adult is an adult who tried to ruin them.

"What do you know? So, dear junior brother, could you help me buy a figurine? Just one, that's fine. Of course, if you don't mind, you can buy me a few more. Consider this money a loan, and I'll definitely pay it back," Danzhu pleaded.

"I don't have any money..." Chen Luo opened his mouth and said the reason why he didn't want to help the other party.

"No money? How could you be broke? You live in such a big house... and you even have the Xuanyuan Sword hanging in your house." Danzhu pointed at the Xuanyuan Sword, which was being used to ward off evil spirits, with disbelief.

"If I don't have money, I don't have money. My parents are very strict about my allowance. Although I said I wanted to travel during summer vacation, my parents gave me a travel allowance. But after I came home, they froze that travel allowance."

"They claim that travel funds can only be used for travel," Chen Luo sighed.

The good news is that Chen Luo transferred 1 yuan out of the account in advance to fake his trip, and this 1 yuan plus 3000 yuan for living expenses is Chen Luo's only asset at present.

I should have transferred more if I had known.

"How much were those figurines you wanted to buy?" Chen Luo asked.

"3200..."

"3200 in total? That's not impossible..."

"One 3200..."

"...Do I look like a figurine?" Chen Luo looked at Danzhu with a serious expression.

"No, don't say that. I can always pay you back when I earn money later... Okay, I don't think I have a salary anymore. If I really can't buy it, then I won't buy it." Danzhu said awkwardly.

Danzhu never expected that Chen Luo would be poorer in his own world than in the other world.

At least when he was in the Möbius Lab, even with Chen Luo's salary as an assistant, he could buy four or five figurines a month, and he still had plenty of living expenses.

Moreover, sometimes Chen Luo's bonuses were several times higher than his salary.

Especially when some high-ranking members of the Fire Moth organization had Chen Luo perform surgery on them and found that their surgery had failed but they were still alive, they would give Chen Luo a large sum of money.

At least in Danzhu's memory, Chen Luo was never poor.

And they're constantly worried about how to spend their money.

Furthermore, having returned to modern civilization, Danzhu almost thought he was still working in the laboratory.

Danzhu did indeed get into the habit of spending a portion of her monthly earnings on figurines.

As for saving money?

In a collapsing world where people are almost gone, what's the point of saving money?

"Sigh, never mind. Tell me, how much do those three figurines you want to buy cost in total?" Chen Luo sighed, seeing Danzhu's somewhat disappointed expression.

If it's 3200 each, buying three would only cost around 1.

The remaining 3000 should last until my living expenses arrive next month.

The key point is that Chen Luo doesn't need much living expenses now, since he can take care of his food, clothing, shelter, and even go to bars.

The remaining 3000 was mostly used to buy necessities for show, and then these necessities had to be given to Mona or Pecorine later.

Besides, if he didn't fight for the raw stones, would he still be Chen Luo?

Moreover, Chen Luo vaguely remembered that Xiao Ke'er seemed to be a wealthy young woman...

Even if Xiao Ke'er is short of money now, Chen Luo can spend a few million Mora to exchange for some money with Yun Lian'er this afternoon. Yun Lian'er seems quite interested in Mora.

“A total of 12,000,” Danzhu said after thinking for a moment.

"What kind of crappy figurine is this? So expensive?"

"Honkai Impact 3rd Cangxuan Collector's Edition figure, Chiyuan Immortal figure, and Danzhu Puppeteer figure," Danzhu said after thinking for a moment.

"???"

Wait, there are too many important points, Chen Luo was a little confused.

"Um, so... you've already watched Honkai Impact 3?"

"I've seen it." Danzhu nodded.

"After all, this game is still quite popular; just watch it on video websites and you'll see. I also want to commend my junior brother; you did a great job, thank you for your hard work." Danzhu patted Chen Luo on the shoulder.

It's something that could transform a world filled with knives into a slightly better world like it is now. Anyway, Danzhu couldn't have done it.

"So you don't have any ideas?"

"Yes, of course." Danzhu nodded.

"what idea?"

"Cangxuan's collector's edition figure is just too cute." Danzhu picked up a cushion from the sofa and rubbed her face against it.

"..." Chen Luo covered his forehead.

What kind of figure fanatic?

"Don't you have any other...other ideas?"

“Hmm…other ideas…” Listening to Chen Luo’s words, Danzhu seemed to have really started to think seriously.

"Hua's Crimson Iris Immortal figurine has such big, fake-looking breasts, but it's still quite pretty," Danzhu said seriously.

"...Can't you just stop thinking about your stupid figurine?!"
