Chapter 220 [Disease]

Chapter 220 [Disease]

Lin Qiqi was stunned for a moment, then looked at An Zhiyan and asked, "You mean, the product card on the shelf over there is numbered 003?"

An Zhiyan nodded.

"You read that right?"

"Absolutely true!"

"Interesting!" Lin Qiqi had a playful smile on her face. "No. 003 [Unknown Journey] allows you to leave the day of confinement, but the destination is unknown. This thing is not much different from the legendary No. 000 [Escape]. No matter what the price is, it is worth buying. I have to buy it even if it costs me a lot."

"But!" An Zhiyan tried hard to suppress her excitement: "Could it be that simple? A card second only to [Escape] is actually displayed on the shelf so openly?"

No matter how you look at it, this matter is ridiculous.

During the days of imprisonment, countless Shiyi people suffered in an endless cycle of reincarnation, and most of them wanted to escape.

And Yongge Supermarket actually has a card that can do this, and it is sold directly as a commodity.

It's simply unbelievable, there is obviously a big problem.

Lin Qiqi thought for a moment and said, "Since it is a commodity, then what is the price tag of this card? Did you see it clearly just now?"

"This..." An Zhiyan was a little embarrassed. The snake man just stretched his neck and swallowed the Eye of Reconnaissance too quickly. Moreover, she was shocked by the content of the card and indeed ignored the price.

"Wait a minute, I'll go take a look." Lin Qiqi couldn't wait any longer.

Although she knew that this must be a 'bait', or that the card was simply a 'fake', it was worth the risk to investigate even if there was only a slight chance that it was real.

Lin Qiqi has preserved the memories of more than a hundred cycles. Among those who can restore memories in this city, she is definitely in the upper echelon.

In fact, she no longer had much hope of escaping from confinement.

But suddenly one day, this "hope" was right in front of her, and she was tempted.

Even though she knew there were problems with this matter, as she said, it was worth the risk, and she was confident.

Lin Qiqi walked towards the shelf over there.

She could clearly see the "disease" hovering around the snake man's body. As long as they were within a five-meter range, they would be indiscriminately infected, so Lin Qiqi stopped at the edge five meters away and tried to look at the shelves.

"I see!"

Lin Qiqi saw the price of the card. The price tag below read '180000'.

18 points!
Lin Qiqi was not surprised, the price was exactly in line with her expectations.

The prices are very high.

But on the other hand, it also means that this card may not be fake.

Just now, Lin Qiqi met a dog wearing clothes, and the dog gave her 500 points.

This thing is magical, but Lin Qiqi guessed that this is a mechanism within Yongge Supermarket. Perhaps everyone who enters the supermarket can get a similar new gift package.

500 points may not seem like a lot, but actually there is some purchasing power. For example, the prices of some ordinary commodity cards range from a few points to dozens of points. So if you just pick some low-value goods, it is possible to fill up the weight requirement of the 'shopping cart card book' you choose. For example, buying some rice, flour, oil and the like is not expensive, but it is very heavy.

Of course, there are definitely some expensive items in the supermarket, some costing hundreds or even thousands of points. If you want to buy these, 500 points are not enough.

But the same thing applies. If we only consider the load-bearing limit of the 'shopping cart card book', even if it is a large shopping cart with the strongest load-bearing capacity, 500 points are enough as long as they are used reasonably to select products.

But the premise is that you should not consume impulsively, and even more so, you should not be carried away by desire.

Under normal circumstances, people who regain memories are rational. After all, those who can survive multiple cycles and preserve their memories are not stupid. How could they lose their minds over something like 'shopping' and run to exchange their treasured cards for shopping vouchers?

Crazy isn't it!

However, if the supermarket sells item number 003 [Unknown Journey], the situation will be completely different.

I'm afraid that few people who have recalled their past can remain rational under the temptation of this card.

Although it is an 'unknown journey', this is card number 003, a card that can % escape the day of confinement.

Even if it is not used, no one can refuse the opportunity to obtain this card.

Therefore, this card will definitely have a very high selling price.

18 shopping vouchers.

Even if a normal person who retrieves memories exchanges all the cards he has accumulated for shopping vouchers, it still won’t be enough.

This is reasonable.

A tangible "hope" is enough to make the originally desperate Shiyi people lose their minds. Therefore, this is the most terrifying thing about Yongge Supermarket. That is, you can leave, but unfortunately, it is difficult for anyone who comes in to leave on their own initiative.

They are all doing everything they can to get the shopping vouchers, dreaming of taking away this card that everyone dreams of.

Yongge Supermarket has another mechanism.

Those who leave will forget everything that happened in the supermarket, and only know that it is a high-end scene and a place where they can do business with other top memory collectors.

Lin Qiqi couldn’t figure out the function of this mechanism for the time being.

Wouldn't it be good if the news about number 003 spread out to attract more people?
In short, as long as you have shopping vouchers, theoretically, you can exchange them for other top memory collectors' treasured cards, or even buy the [Unknown Journey].

But the problem is that there is another mechanism in Yongge Supermarket.

Indiscriminate [hunger] and [thirst], the body consumes more than five times the normal amount, so staying here, the speed of hunger is much faster than the outside world, and in order to avoid starvation, you have to eat, and who usually carries food with them? Without food, you can only buy [food cards] in the supermarket.

Consume shopping vouchers.

If you are not a newcomer and do not even have 500 shopping coupons, you can only redeem them with your own cards.
This closes the loop!

Lin Qiqi was just thinking about it when she suddenly realized that the snake head was only two or three feet away from her.

"broken!"

The snake's neck and head can be stretched out, so the so-called five-meter safety distance is not enough.

Lin Qiqi raised her hand and saw that she was infected with the [Disease].

"My customer, how can you see clearly standing so far away? Come, take a closer look." The snake man's voice was sharp and his tone was teasing, as if he was mocking him.

"That's true." Lin Qiqi also felt relieved.

Since it had already been infected with the [Disease], she might as well let it go. She walked closer to the shelf and began to examine it carefully, observing the card up close.

"It's real, it's real!"

Lin Qiqi is very familiar with cards. Sometimes, she would study the various cards in the card album, their size, texture, and the exquisite patterns and text on them.

And a special smell.

These can be used to identify the authenticity of the cards.

Obviously, the cards on this copper shelf are real, at least Lin Qiqi thinks they are real.

"Hey, how many shopping coupons do you have? Let's pool them together and see if we can buy this card." A memory collector nearby said.

Lin Qiqi glanced at the other person and ignored him.

The appearance of this person who is collecting memories is already very abnormal.

He was thin, his face was so skinny that it looked unrecognizable, his clothes were tattered, his face was covered with stubble, his hair was messy, and only his eyes held a morbid persistence, like those gamblers at the door of a casino who had lost everything but still wanted to try again.

"Don't listen to him. Lend me the shopping voucher and I'll sign a contract with you. I'll give you five more points when I return it to you. How about that?" Another person from Shiyi also came over with his eyes wide open.

"I'll give you eight points, lend it to me."

These people are all crazy.

Lin Qiqi originally wanted to ask the snake man some questions, but the conditions did not allow this now. She had to find a way to get rid of these crazy memory collectors first.

[Soul Shock], run away!

By the time these people who were recalling their memories reacted, there was no trace of Lin Qiqi anymore.

"Go find Luo Xi and tell him about our discovery." After reuniting with An Zhiyan, Lin Qiqi made the decision immediately.

The situation in Yongge Supermarket is very special. Various strange [diseases], a card second only to the legendary card, numbered 003 can actually be purchased like merchandise. There is also information about redeeming shopping vouchers and the consumption closed loop of [hunger]. All of these require sharing of information with Luo Xi.

Lin Qiqi is not the kind of person who likes to rely on others.

In the past, she was a lone ranger, and her life motto was 'It is better to rely on yourself than on others'.

But sometimes, you really can't solve all problems by yourself.

It’s not that she didn’t want to rely on others in the past, but she just hadn’t found someone to rely on. Now she has found it.

An Zhiyan also wanted to ask Luo Xi something, so the two of them walked carefully between the shopping racks that were like a maze. Occasionally, they would meet other people who were recovering their memories. These people were either in a hurry, muttering something as they walked quickly, or they had dazed eyes and sat on the ground or strolled around like zombies.

There is no normal one.

And all of them have one thing in common.

They are all very thin.

hungry!

An Zhiyan felt very annoyed at this time, of course, it was about Lin Yixuan. She initially thought that the Lin Yixuan she met was a fake, but with continuous exploration, she found that the other party might really be Lin Yixuan.

Because all the people who have recalled their memories here are not normal, and Lin Yixuan looked very thin at the time, and his mental state was no different from that of other people who have recalled their memories.

More importantly, she had just asked Lin Qiqi if she had found any 'disguisers' in the supermarket, or if there were any aliens pretending to be someone who had regained their memories. Because Lin Qiqi was a [Soul Peeper], if there was something pretending to be someone who had regained their memories, she would be able to see the clues from the soul.

But Lin Qiqi said, no!
"So, that was indeed Lin Yixuan. What on earth did he go through to become like that? Was it [disease]? Or maybe Lin Yixuan also wanted to buy [Unknown Journey], but was stuck in the dilemma of not having enough shopping vouchers. This can easily drive a person crazy, especially a person who is already very proud."

"Also, who was the 'he' that Lin Yixuan was talking about at the time?"

"It seems that Lin Yixuan saw someone, and this person had a huge impact on him!"

bang~
An Zhiyan, who was immersed in questions, didn't notice that Lin Qiqi in front of her stopped and bumped into her back. She looked up and was about to ask, and then she knew why Lin Qiqi stopped.

Because there was a special shelf in front.

Silvery white, even with a hint of silver light.

Next to this shelf, there was also a 'shopping guide' who looked like a snake man, but this time, he was a sheep wearing clothes.
