[Su Che: You're stupid! Theresa resurrected Otto. Having already successfully resurrected Kallen, Otto must be wondering what to do next. Then he realizes the only thing he can do is charge the tree again to resurrect Theresa. Then Theresa resurrects, charges the tree again to resurrect Otto, and Otto resurrects Theresa again. Now everyone has their own things to do, and a bright future.]

[Ahaha: Hahaha! The loop is closed!]

[Siegfried: Fuck]

[(Hacked) Bronya: @Funina, the administrator of the Imaginary Number Tree, please come out. Someone is maliciously exploiting a bug to cheat on achievements.]

[Funina: You guys charge at the Imaginary Number Tree every day, have you ever considered its feelings?]

Otto: Oh, you're quite thoughtful. Theresa won't miss my care. She will grow into a great leader.

[Qingque: President De’s greatness needs no further explanation. I would like to call it the De Lisa Spirit.]

[Otto: That's not the kind of greatness I'm talking about]

[Kiana: @Teresa, if you feel lonely during your period, just tell us. We’ll definitely come back to see you no matter how busy we are!]

[Fu Xiaoshi: That’s right. If you want to talk to someone, you can call us anytime, anywhere and chat with us!]

[Rita: Lady Theresa, I will definitely return to accompany you as soon as I have time. If you encounter any difficulties in life, I will arrange for operators to take care of you in advance...]

[Theresa: Stop it! Stop making me sound like an empty-nester!]

[Hua Huo: To be precise, you should be considered a left-behind child]

[Teresa: No one will think you are dumb if you don’t speak!]

"Only when you stop working can you realize that work is meaningless." Fu Xiaoshi looked at Theresa with emotion.

"Bishop, you truly are the guiding light of the Destiny Limited Group! Now, I fully understand!"

Theresa asked, "Xiaozhi, tell me, what have you realized? For example...about your lateness?"

Fu Xiaoshi: "What's the point of being late? This is called proper time planning. Every minute you're late means you earn an extra penny. Cherish your life and stop being on time."

"So, what about the company's free snacks and afternoon tea?" Theresa asked again.

Fu Xiaoshi's tone grew increasingly dismissive. "Whatever belongs to the company is mine. If I'm going to take anything, I'll take the most expensive stuff. I'm going to fill my pockets. I'll have a glass of milk for breakfast before work, and a few bags of snacks after get off work."

Theresa was extremely satisfied with Fu Xiaoshi's current state: "Not bad, not bad. Xiaoshi, you're on to something. Keep up this momentum, and I believe you'll become an outstanding employee of the company in no time."

Fu Xiaoshi excitedly said, "Thank you, Bishop. You are so wise!"

[End of video]

[Hanabi: To put it simply, Theresa doesn't look like she's acting.]

[Sambo: Indeed. I think she was completely genuinely expressing herself. Acting alone wouldn't have achieved that effect.]

Chapter 144: Trashing the System

[Theresa: I can’t think of these words]

[Qingque: I must write it down word for word. This will be Demen’s Bible from now on.]

[Spring Elf: Alas, Xiaoshi is such a good kid, but you led him astray.]

[Kiana: What gives you the right to talk about periods? Also, didn't you and Xiaoshi have a big argument earlier? Why are your attitudes changing now?]

[Spring Spirit: How could I possibly argue with a fool like this who can be fooled by a few words? And she's a Herrscher of Consciousness, to have been tricked into altering her consciousness is a disgrace to the Herrscher.]

[Fu Xiaoshi: Huh?! You, a guy who was swindled into bankruptcy by a random woodcutter, have the nerve to criticize me?]

[Spring Spirit: How could I not remember such a thing? I have never encountered any cunning and hateful woodcutter.]

[Congratulations to Theresa for obtaining the cheat-tanking system; congratulations to Fu Xiaoshi for obtaining a phone with an anti-fraud app installed.]

[Heita: Oh? It's actually called a cheat in the chat group. What is this?]

[Teresa: Let me see]

Theresa: If I just sit there and do nothing, the system will give me money? What's the point...?

[Dolly: "What's the use of this?" How can you say something like that? Damn rich guy!]

[Padofils: I can get paid for doing nothing, isn't that wonderful?]

Theresa: I'll put it up for auction. If anyone wants it, come and bid.

[Mona: If someone really could pay me without me having to do anything...]

[Wendy: Since it's a botched system, that means you have to do nothing to earn money. I don't suppose you'd give up your career as an astrologer just to live comfortably, would you?]

[Mona: Eh? Yeah, that's putting the cart before the horse.]

[Paimeng: @Wendy, this system should be suitable for you, right?]

[Wendy: But I still love singing. If I had to give up singing just to have money to buy alcohol, the alcohol would gradually lose its flavor.]

[Sino: @Dolly, if you don't have enough points, I can lend you some to buy this system. If you can stop doing illegal business in the future, it will save me a lot of trouble.]

[Dolly: Even if there is money to be made, but after thinking about it carefully, I still can’t stand sitting at home without making money. Forget it.]

[Fu Xuan: So, Qingque definitely won't be able to use this, right?]

[Bluebird: The days when I can't play cards are hell!]

[Xing: Even Qingque, who's always complaining about slacking off, is like this? Speaking of which, no one in the group is actually lying down, so why are they all so complacent?]

[Raven: Since you all don’t want it, then I won’t be polite.]

[Mebius: Hehehe~ Have you submitted your reimbursement application to Gray Snake? I remember the money was transferred to you before you obtained the Sky Castle.]

[Raven: I've already returned it, but Gray Snake doesn't want it]

[Mebius: It's easy to take money, but it's hard to pay it back~ The deal is done, and the repayment method is up to me.]

[Raven: W-what do you mean?]

[Gray Snake: Miss Raven, there is still a lot of work to do. You can't rest yet.]

[Mebius: Employee or guinea pig, choose~]

[Raven: ...]

[Susanna: How terrifying! Is this the tragic end of joining a dark organization like the mafia or a killer's guild and being unable to escape?]

[Hanabi: Good—poor little crow! He joined an illegal organization to make money and fell into depravity. In the end, the island he saved up to buy was gone, and he completely lost his personal freedom and wealth. In the end, he was forced to choose between being a dog and giving up his body.]

[Raven: That's really weird!]

[Padofilis: Now that you mention it... Raven is indeed quite pitiful.]

Tesla: Isn't the World Serpent your Thirteen Heroes'? If you knew how pitiful she is, why don't you stop her?

[Padofilis: Ahahahaha... Although I'm known as the Thirteen Heroes, I'm just a guinea pig in front of Sister Snake. If I try to stop her, I'll probably get one for free...]

[Alicea: Oops~ Don't make it seem like the World Serpent is some evil organization. Mobius was just joking. @Raven, don't bother with her.]

[Raven: Thank you...]

[Xing: So, isn't being a dog the same as giving your body?]

[March 7: So you've been thinking about this for so long!]

Keqing: Not necessarily. Even if someone claims to be Kamisato Ayaka's dog on their first day at Inazuma, Kamisato Ayaka has no interest in her body.

[Ying: Humph, she will definitely regret it later]

[Kamisato Ayaka: ...Um, I kind of regret this now. Can we do it again?]

[Kamisato Ayato: Ling Hua?!]

[Keqing:? ! ]

[Hanabi: Hahahaha!]

[Ahaha: Hahahaha!]

[Sambo: @Keqing, sister, your beautiful grass elemental hat seems a little askew. Can I help you fix it?]

[Keqing: Shut up!]

[Ningguang: Alas, Keqing]

[Ye Lan: Your mistake is too low-level. I've told you countless times not to casually mention other women. You're simply shooting yourself in the foot.]

[Keqing: I...sigh...]

After watching the video, everyone watched Keqing's loser performance while ending the first day of the cooking competition's preliminary round.

The day's results were consistent with everyone's stereotypes about the group's members. Mei Raiden, Xiangling, and the others advanced without much suspense. Although Jizi was eliminated, she also successfully promoted coffee and became a fellow coffee lover with Leila.

In response to Ying's chicken soup, Padufilis kept her word and gave her full marks. She also snatched the score cards of Cocolia and Kaia and gave them excellent scores and handed them to the competition committee. Ying then successfully advanced.

And this time, it was not only Ying who was unexpectedly promoted, but also Xing——

She rented a Star Raft from Luofu, pulled a bunch of trash cans over, and then opened the lids and drew prizes on the spot during the competition, making the first competition area the most interesting place in the entire Inazuma City.

With the skill of "trash can treasure house", she actually drew a serving of Xian Tiao Qiang. Even though this hot dish was just taken out of the trash can, it still conquered the judges' tastes.

[Tartaria: I don't agree! This isn't even cooking!]

Sure enough, someone in the group protested against this result.

Tesla: "It's fine if others aren't convinced, but what's wrong with you, the guy who served a live octopus wrapped in crab soaked in water? Putting everything else aside, at least other people's dishes didn't make any whining noises."

[Zhongli: I don't mean to discriminate against seafood, but the prerequisite for seafood to be food is that it can't be squirming in the bowl with slime.]

[Gui Naifen: I always thought that eating fish required spitting out fish bones, which was perhaps the most troublesome food in the world, until I had my throat sucked by an octopus’s sucker]

All three judges gave Tartaglia a unanimous negative review.

Chapter 145: Xinghe March 7th, the days when Danheng slept

[Tartaria: I just put some local specialties]

Tesla: Another thing is that your food has a faint rotten smell, which makes me feel like I am eating next to a garbage dump.

[Tartaria: Isn't that because of the trash can that Xing brought in?! This is a cooking competition, why did she bring a trash can in?]

[Xing: You don't understand anything, Dada. My brief time on the Immortal Boat taught me a lesson—some things, the stinkier they smell, the more delicious they taste. This is also a major area of culinary art. To achieve perfection in this area, I incorporate trash can elements into my cooking.]

[Tartaria: ...What are you talking about? I don't understand.]

[Xing: All you need to know is that the trash can is a universal tool. In a cooking competition, I can win just by using the trash can!]

[Mockingbird: Why does Xing like trash cans so much? They must be unsanitary, right?]

[Xing: Of course, because I can find great treasures in them. I use the things I find in the trash cans all the time, and if I don't use them all, I can give them to Sanyueqi and the others, or sell them at a stall to earn a living.]

[Mockingbird: Is life on the Star Train... so hectic? Eating food from trash bins all the time will give you stomach upset, right?]

[Dan Heng: Ahem... You probably didn't know Xing has the skill "Trash Can Treasure Trove." She can ignore the contents of the trash can and 100% guarantee to retrieve new and useful items from it.]

[Gold Dust: Oh? What can you usually get from it?]

[Xing: The most expensive item right now is the Black Tower doll. I even spent tens of thousands of credits on it when I went back.]

[Gold Dust: Awesome! Want a part-time job? I can open a trash can factory just for you. All you have to do is open the lids as much as you want.]

[Xing: I refuse! That kind of trash can has no soul.]

[March 7: I'll tell you! Xing's love for trash cans isn't just about finding things in them. I saw her sleeping with a trash can-shaped pillow the other day. Xing's love for trash cans is getting weirder and weirder.]

[Xing: What's wrong with liking trash cans? When you're tired, a trash can can be used as a stool. When you're sleepy, a trash can can be used as a sleeping bag. Not only can a trash can hold a lot of things, but it can also be used for cooking, heating water, and bathing. It's a must-have tool for us Wumingke pioneers!]

[Lingke: Trash cans do have many uses.]

[Pela: Lingbao, don’t learn from her!]

[Ling Ke: I won't. Trash cans are too big and hard to carry around, so strictly speaking, they're not suitable for long walks.]

[Xing: After all, you're on the ice field, so I understand. Trash cans are more suitable for people living in hot (♂) areas. Fill a trash can with cold water and take it to bed. Its excellent heat dissipation will make up for the disadvantage of being difficult to carry!]

[Xing: And the outer shell of the trash can and the Firefly armor feel the same, so when I sleep with the trash can, it feels like I'm holding Firefly in a mecha, hehehe~]

[Silver Wolf: 6]

[Fireworks: 9]

[March 7: Your imagination... is a little too good, isn't it?]
