Damn it, something's wrong with the gacha I got.

She had already prepared a plan.

Scott took a deep breath, trying to calm his mind, which had been disturbed by Chen Bai, and steered the conversation back onto what he considered a stable path.

"Let's put aside the fact that you're labeling me."

He deliberately straightened his back, trying to regain the authority of a negotiator. "Let's get back to the point. The Jinren Lane Wharf has long suffered from poor management, which is irrefutable evidence of its lack of value. Moreover, the Chamber of Commerce has been unable to pay the rent stipulated in the contract for a long time, which constitutes a serious breach of contract. Therefore, on behalf of the company, I insist that the Jinren Lane Chamber of Commerce should voluntarily relinquish the management rights of the wharf and hand it over to a more capable manager..."

Scott's tone carried the unquestionable air typical of company representatives.

However, before he could finish speaking, Mingxi had already moved.

Without saying a word, she gently pushed a neatly bound document to the center of the long table and began to speak:

“Mr. Scott, this is the Golden Lane Chamber of Commerce’s recent complete revenue and financial report. The data shows that the pier business has recently turned a profit. More importantly, thanks to a series of revitalization measures, the foot traffic and business activity in the Golden Lane area have seen explosive growth in the past few days. We are not only able to pay the rent, but also full of confidence in the future of the pier.”

"What? That's impossible!" Scott's pupils contracted sharply, and his rebuttal was sharp with disbelief.

He meticulously planned for so long, using various means to secretly exert pressure and create obstacles, all to make the Chamber of Commerce unable to extricate itself from a financial quagmire.

In just a few days? To turn the tide? This was completely beyond his calculations.

He practically lunged forward, grabbed the document, and eagerly scanned the rows of clear numbers, charts, and stamps on it.

The closer you looked, the paler his face appeared.

The data is logically sound, all signatures are complete, and the transactions are clearly traceable... This doesn't seem like a hastily forged product.

"Impossible... How could you have done that in such a short time?"

Scott's voice began to waver, his initial assertiveness replaced by a panicked skepticism: "This data must be fabricated! It's a trick to keep the company afloat!"

His loss of composure was almost impossible to conceal.

If this report is true, it not only means that the company's previous suppression tactics have been in vain, but also that he himself made a serious misjudgment and may even be held accountable for improperly interfering with business activities.

The company's efforts, including those of the eight key figures involved, will all be completely wasted.

Just as Scott was in a state of panic, trying to find any possible vulnerabilities to exploit, Xi Kui's cool voice rang out again:

“Mr. Scott, we have conducted a preliminary verification and the financial documents provided by the Golden Lane Chamber of Commerce representative are authentic, valid, and legally binding. According to the terms of the original lease agreement signed by both parties, provided that the Golden Lane Chamber of Commerce fulfills its payment obligations and there are no other major breaches of contract, its dock operation rights remain protected.”

She paused slightly, her tone steady yet carrying an unavoidable pressure:

"So, based on the current facts, regarding the allegations made by the Golden Man Lane Chamber of Commerce that your company and Star Peace Corporation are suspected of secretly disrupting the normal operation of the pier and the business environment of Golden Man Lane, do you or the company you represent have anything else to explain or clarify?"

The air in the negotiation room seemed to freeze.

All eyes were on Scott, waiting for his answer.

The previously aggressive offensive has now quietly reversed.

"You're slandering me! I didn't do anything..."

“Ahem, Mr. Scott, let me remind you, we have ample evidence that you and your company’s employees deliberately disrupted business activities in Golden Lane. Please do not try to deny it, or you will be in a very difficult situation when you have to clean up the mess.”

Chen Bai interrupted Scott's explanation.

"Hmph! With technology so advanced these days, I'm sure you've used some kind of technology to fake this, trying to frame me. That's right, that's exactly it!"

Scott forced himself to remain calm in the tunnel.

Su Chang: "Hey! You're such a shameless scoundrel! The evidence is right here, and you still won't admit it?"

This was also the first time she had ever seen the true colors of the people in the company.

"Hmph! Anyway, this thing isn't mine."

Scott crossed his arms, looking like he was saying, "What are you going to do with me?"

"Hey~ Xing, Qiong, hold him down."

Seeing this, Chen Bai spoke up.

There was no other way; seeing this guy's shameless behavior, he had to prepare to use some drastic measures.

"Wait! What are you doing?"

Scott was startled and looked wary, even taking a few steps back.

"What? Of course, I'm feeding you something. Otherwise, you'll still act like a dead pig that's not afraid of boiling water. So I thought it would be better if you admitted it yourself. After all, everyone is quite busy and doesn't have time to listen to your nagging."

As he spoke, he gestured for the two little gray creatures to prepare to attack.

Xing and Qiong were about to step forward when they saw this, but Scott suddenly became agitated.

"Wait! Let's talk this out."

"Huh? Speak properly? Why didn't you speak properly just now?"

"I......"

"Alright, stop talking nonsense. Either you admit it yourself, or I'll make you admit it. It's a clear choice. You have ten seconds."

Chen Bai interjected, indicating that he was losing patience.

He wouldn't mind letting this guy have another dose of the truth candy.

"Fine! You win!" Scott gritted his teeth and continued:

"I'm not human! I secretly bribed the merchants in Jinren Lane to prevent them from cooperating with the Chamber of Commerce..."

"Wait! You're speaking so softly, how can anyone hear you? Speak louder!" Chen Bai interjected.

"That's right, louder!"

"You—you guys! Phew—okay, I'll shout it out loud then..."

Seeing that he had no other choice, Scott had to loudly confess to his crime.

"Oh right, you haven't learned to bark like a dog yet! Hurry up!"

"Yes, yes!" The surrounding crowd of onlookers exclaimed.

"Like a dog barking! We want to hear a dog bark!"

"..."

"That's enough! Ah—"

Scott listened to the shouts around him, his face darkening, and he couldn't help but yell.

"Wang-"

"Woof woof woof—Awooo!"

"..."

Chen Bai and his friends were stunned.

This guy not only imitated dog barks, but he also became addicted to it!

However, the reporters hiding in the shadows have gained new material.

They'd even come up with a title: "Shocking! A Company Employee in Jinren Lane Has Contracted Rabies!"

Chapter 130 The Memoirs are a swarm of flies, and Fu Li is an oversized fly?

After the Golden Man Alley incident, Scott and his company were universally scorned by the people of Louvre.

Chen Bai and his group also received thanks from the Jinrenxiang Chamber of Commerce and were given Jinrenxiang membership cards.

From now on, train crews will receive a 30% discount when shopping at the Golden Man Alley in Louvre.

March 7th is quite a treat, since it will save money when I come to Luofu to find delicious food in the future.

However, she suddenly remembered something.

"By the way, Qiong, I want to go to Fu Xuan Tai Bu to use the Qiong Guan Zhen to check my past memories. Do you remember this?"

March 7th joined the Star Train long before the stars, but she was discovered by the Star Train crew on a piece of ice in the universe.

Upon waking up, March 7th had no memory of the past.

With Huanlong, the Great Lord of Annihilation, now gone, and Luofu becoming more stable, March 7th was thinking of going to the Grand Diviner's Office to see if Fu Xuan, the Grand Diviner, could be of any help.

Chen Bai, the knight, was also very curious about March 7's background.

He is a time traveler, Xing and Qiong are star core essences, and Dan Heng is the Luofu Dragon King—cough cough, ptooey! He is the Luofu Dragon Venerable.

Aside from the two patriarchs, what was March 7's past like?

The topic subtly shifted towards Qiong.

Feeling a little awkward being the center of attention, Qiong scratched the back of her head and stammered, "Uh, in my world... March did try to ask Taipusi for help, but she was unsuccessful."

"Failed?" Chen Baimin keenly caught the key words, leaning forward slightly as he pressed, "What exactly happened?"

"It's like this..." Qiong gathered her thoughts and began to slowly recount her experience in another timeline.

In his account, March 7th, in order to explore her mysterious past, also visited the Taibu Si of Luofu with him, earnestly requesting Lord Fu Xuan to use the Qiong Guan Zhen to deduce her background.

However, even the Qiongguan Formation, which is under the command of Lord Fu Xuan and can predict many trajectories of fate, seemed powerless in the face of the past of March 7th.

While using the Qiong Guan Zhen (穷观阵) to explore the past of March 7th, they were obstructed by a believer from the [Liu Guang Yi Ting] (流光憶庭). After they discovered that March 7th had fallen from the train into the Six Phases of Ice, they could find no other clues.

Later, according to Fu Xuan's deduction, the past that March 7 lost might be intricately related to the Star God Fu Li, who holds the power of cosmic memory, and his origins are probably beyond imagination.

"Wow!" Xing's eyes lit up instantly, as if she had discovered some amazing treasure. She moved closer to March 7, her voice full of surprise.

"March, I never expected this! You also have such a mysterious past? Could it be that one day, like Teacher Danheng awakened his power of wisdom, you will suddenly reveal your hidden true identity and power?"

"What?!" March 7th was taken aback by Xing's words, then rolled her eyes at her in annoyance, and continued:

"Why don't I feel anything at all? If there really is some hidden power, then it should come out already!"

She muttered defiantly, even waving her little fist in a "majestic" pose.

"If I could transform, I could fight four people at once, how awesome would that be!"

"Little March, even if you transform, you're no match for me, Galactic Baseball Man."

Xing scoffed.

"Hmph! If I really awaken my hidden power then, don't come crying to me!"

March 7th replied with dissatisfaction.

"Alright, March, since Qiong said that if you go to the Temple of the Great Sacred Arts to find your original memories and ultimately fail, even though you are from another world, do you still want to make that decision now?"

Chen Bai suddenly asked March 7th.

"Well... never mind." After hesitating for a moment, March 7 finally said, "Although I am very curious about my past, since I failed in the other world, I don't want to bother Fu Xuan Tai Bu anymore. Besides, I might be able to find my own memories on the path of [exploration] in the future, so there's no rush."

Although she also wanted to know about her background, having her companions on the Starry Sky Train was the best memory she could have.

She understands the principle of cherishing the present moment.

"Well, since your background is related to the [Flowing Light Memory Court], if we encounter any other Memory People in the future, we can ask them about it."

Chen Bai replied.

【The Radiant Memory Court】is a faction that follows the 【Memory】 star god, Fu Li.

Its members—the Memoirs—search the universe for valuable memories, traveling freely through various realms in their memetic forms to find memories that can please the Star Gods.

However, there are good and bad factions regarding "memory," just as "abundance" has both good and evil aspects.

One is the normal group of remembrancers, and the other is the group of memory thieves.

They steal other people's memories and are known as "memory thieves" by many around the world, so their reputation is naturally not very good.

However, there is another faction with an even worse reputation—the Incinerators.

The incinerators, on the other hand, take it upon themselves to filter out the value of memories. They classify memories by stealing from the memory palace's inventory and destroy the worthless parts, claiming that this is to reduce the burden on the memory star god Fuli.

Chen Bai always felt that these remembrances were more troublesome and disgusting, probably even more annoying than Feng Rao.

The only problem with Fengrao monsters is their strong vitality. Just hit them a few more times, or at worst, burn them all.

However, memory thieves and incinerators are two extremes. People who steal or destroy other people's memories without their consent are indeed a bunch of disgusting flies.

Uh... but that description isn't quite right either.

If the memory is a fly, then isn't the universe a pile of shit?
