Chen Mo smiled and offered an explanation.

Ooka Momiji suddenly realized what Chen Mo meant, but then she shook her head, "No! It doesn't count if I triggered the hidden rule this time."

Chen Mo looked at Ooka Momiji with some surprise. Everyone else was eager for this opportunity, but she actually took the initiative to refuse.

"Are you going to refuse the chance to draw a card?" Chen Mo asked uncertainly.

“That’s not entirely true,” Ooka Momiji grinned.

"What is that?" Chen Mo was a little confused about Ooka Momiji's idea.

Ooka Momiji smiled slightly, flipped over and landed on the counter, her gaze fixed on Chen Mo, "I just intend to re-trigger the hidden rule."

Before Chen Mo could answer, Ooka Momiji had already stepped on the flashlight. "I don't think the shop manager will refuse, right?"

Now that everyone here is in Britain, Chen Mo naturally won't let her go.

This catwoman leather jacket is designed to be worn without taking it off; you just need to unzip it.

Chen Mo discovered that the Ooka Red Leaves had already been mastered, no wonder it needed to be retried, it seems it was premeditated.

Why do I feel like I've been tricked by her? Then she definitely needs to be punished properly.

Ooka Momiji seemed completely unfazed, instead reaching out to hug his neck, "Please... I'll..."

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo immediately sent the flashlight to the workshop for repair.

At this moment, at the Takayanagi family home.

Takayanagi Sumire, dressed in a purple kimono, knelt in the reception room.

Mitsuko Takayanagi placed the prepared tea and snacks in front of her.

"Don't worry! Ichiro Takayanagi drowned yesterday in an accident."

Gao Liuchengjiang picked up his teacup, took a sip of tea, and said slowly.

"Thank you, Madam!" Takayanagi Mitsuko immediately expressed her gratitude, which effectively cleared her of suspicion.

"Have you invited everyone on the list I gave you yesterday?" Takayanagi Sumire asked.

Mitsuko Takayanagi nodded. "Yes, most of them have already replied, saying they will attend the tea party on time."

Takayuki Chengjiang quietly sipped his tea, patiently waiting.

Soon a woman appeared from outside the door. She was also wearing a purple kimono, with her blue hair tied in a ponytail and her bangs parted to the sides in front of her forehead.

She walked in calmly, carrying a beautiful gift in her hand.

"Oh! Pavilion!" Takayanagi Chengjiang looked up at the beautiful woman in front of him and said with a smile.

The woman in front of me is the owner of a hot spring hotel.

Whether it was good luck or bad luck, her husband died in a car accident on their wedding day.

This led her to become the proprietress of the hot spring inn.

"Mrs. Takayanagi! Congratulations."

Tingzi handed the gift in her hand to Takayanagi Mitsuko, then took off her wooden clogs and knelt down in front of Takayanagi Sumie.

"Come on, have some tea."

Gao Liucheng smiled slightly.

"Hmm!" Tingzi picked up the teacup with both hands and immediately took a sip.

Takayanagi Sumie noticed a hint of worry in Tingzi's eyes. "What's wrong? Is business at the inn not good lately?"

Tingzi sighed, "Alas, I don't know what's going on? Lately, fewer and fewer customers are coming to the store. If this continues, I'm afraid we'll face the risk of bankruptcy."

Takayanagi Chengjiang nodded slightly, "Actually, I do have a place that might be able to help you."

"Where is this!" Tingzi immediately looked up at Takayanagi Chengjiang, her eyes filled with anticipation!

"Do you know why I was able to control the Takayanagi family?" Mrs. Takayanagi took a bite of her pastry and then asked slowly.

Tingzi shook his head, put down his teacup, and looked at Takayanagi Chengjiang with a puzzled expression in his eyes.

"It's very simple! It's just because I went to a certain place."

Takayanagi Chengjiang deliberately kept everyone in suspense.

"What place is it?" Tingzi asked impatiently. In fact, they were quite shocked that Takayanagi Chengjiang had suddenly become the head of the Takayanagi family.

After all, who could have known that the Takayanagi family would undergo such a dramatic change overnight?

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that there's more to this than meets the eye, but the police have already closed the case, and the outcome is now set in stone.

"If you're willing to tell me, I can give up a portion of the hotel's profits!" Tingzi gritted her teeth and looked at Takayanagi Sumire.

"Don't rush!" Gao Liucheng shook his head. "I don't need any benefits from you. You just need to go."

She handed Tingzi a pre-written address from the table.

Tingzi immediately picked up the business card, glanced at it, and showed a puzzled and surprised expression. "Devil Convenience Store?"

"Well, if you trust me, go to this place."

Takayuki Chengjiang took a sip of tea.

Tingzi carefully put away the business card. "Then, Mrs. Gaoliu, I'll take my leave now. Let's get together again sometime."

Takayanagi Chengjiang didn't try to stop her. "Well, it's alright! I'll visit you when I have time."

Tingzi bowed to Gaoliu Chengjiang, then turned and walked out.

She arrived looking worried, but left with a bright and cheerful smile.

Standing to the side, Takayanagi Mitsuko looked puzzled. She was also quite curious about what address Takayanagi Sumie had given Tingko.

"Do you want to know too?" Takayanagi Sumire smiled, elegant and noble.

Miko Takayanagi looked flustered and quickly shook her head, "No, no."

Takayanagi Chengjiang smiled. "It's alright! You can go to this address too; it might change your life!"

"My life!?" Miko Takayanagi took the business card from Sumire Takayanagi and saw the address on it.

She looked puzzled. She hadn't expected to go to a convenience store. Could there be something special about this place?

This piqued her curiosity; a place that could be praised by Takayanagi Chengjiang must be extraordinary.

Takayuki Chengjiang quietly sipped his tea, continuing to wait for the wealthy woman who would be attending the tea party.

Meanwhile, at the Devil's Convenience Store.

Ooka Momiji saw that her legs, which had been swaying in the air, had finally stopped.

Her mind went blank for a moment; she had been quite taken aback.

This time, Chen Mo directly used the most conventional method to repair the flashlight, starting from the front end.

"Drink this."

Chen Mo glanced at the swollen acupoint and handed him a small bottle of recovery potion.

Ooka Momiji immediately drank it obediently, and her discomfort disappeared instantly.

She smiled slightly, stepped down from the counter, and walked up to Chen Mo. "Does the store manager approve of triggering the hidden rule this time? You don't have to approve, then I can let you punish me again!"

Upon hearing what Ooka Momiji said, Chen Mo naturally agreed; he wouldn't put all his eggs in one basket.

"You have passed the test of the hidden rules! You have gained my approval!" Chen Mo grinned and looked at Ooka Momiji in front of him.

Ooka Momiji's eyes showed a hint of disappointment; she hadn't expected to receive such recognition.

She had originally planned to do it ten or eight times.

"You can now draw extra demon cards."

Chen Mo looked at the red leaves of Ooka and spoke.

Ooka Momiji immediately transferred 100,000 to Chen Mo, glanced at the counter, and picked out a demon card.

Her attention returned to the demon card, and she immediately drew it.

As the demon card turned into black mist, it gradually dissipated.

Chen Mo noticed something on the counter and recognized it as a plant without even looking at the information.

Isn't that the Peashooter?

Most people probably know this.

【Peashooter】A basic attack plant from an otherworldly game. It has a certain chance of mutating and gaining the ability to guard the house and can release peas to attack enemies. However, its attack power is relatively weak, but fortunately, it can attack continuously.

"What is this thing? Why does it have two eyes?" Ooka Momiji asked curiously, looking at the potted plant in front of her.

"This is a Peashooter."

Chen Mo pointed to the plant in front of him and replied, "You can use it to guard your home. When it encounters an enemy, it will shoot peas to attack, but its attack power is a bit weak."

When Ooka Momiji heard Chen Mo's words, she found them quite interesting. "Is it that interesting? I'll definitely take good care of it when I get back."

Chen Mo nodded slightly, "Yes, you can try it out when you get back."

Ooka Momiji glanced at the counter. Now that she had used up all the Demon Cards, there seemed to be no reason for her to stay any longer.

"Oh right, I haven't told you about the second way to get extra card draw chances!" Chen Mo suddenly remembered something and looked at Ooka Momiji and asked.

"What is it?" Ooka Momiji asked immediately, curious.

"Yes! As long as you invite someone to draw cards here, and they draw ten cards, you will get an extra chance to draw a card."

Chen Mo grinned and looked at Ooka Momiji.

As the eldest daughter of a prominent family, she must have a good network of connections, so it shouldn't be difficult for her to recommend people to draw cards.

"Hmm... okay!" Ooka Momiji nodded slightly. "I'll help you promote it, but remember to think of me, store manager."

Ooka Momiji grinned and happily skipped away.

Chen Mo gently shook his head. He could tell that Ooka Momiji didn't have any airs or spoiled brat attitude; she was relatively peaceful.

He then immediately took out his exclusive demon card and placed it on the counter, gazing at its flowing golden light, wondering what good things he would draw this time!
