When their heroes, people in Honkai Impact 3

Latio: "Humph, stupid people often think they are smart. That Sunday, although I can't say he is stupid, but..."

Gold Dust: "But that's too naive, hahahaha~"

First update, please give me flowers, votes and rewards.

I was out last night for something, so I'll make up for it today.

I was so sleepy~ I didn’t get home until 3 o’clock, so I woke up to catch up on some sleep and continued writing.

Chapter 1381: The cornerstone of return, flawless white jade (ask for custom order)

If Brother Zhou Tian saw this scene, he would definitely be furious. It seemed that he had Gold Dust under his complete control, and Latio, who seemed to be stabbing Gold Dust in the back and standing in the same camp with him, was also there.

In fact, both of them are performers wearing masks.

In a sense, he did "win the trust of Sunday" through his sophisticated lies and performance, and got back the chips.

"Who could have imagined that my true cornerstone was right here, this most important bargaining chip that he had been so cautious of, was actually handed to me personally by Sunday. Hahahahaha

Having succeeded in his plan, Sha Jin smiled happily.

He picked up a pile of broken blue gem fragments from his luggage bag, then bought a bottle of super strong glue from the tool store next door, and sat on the ground to start piecing them together.

Latio watched the scene with a twitching eye. Using glue to piece together the Amber King's holy body or something. If those bastards in the marketing department saw this scene, they would seize this opportunity to criticize Sand Gold to death!

Not long afterward, a cracked cornerstone was pieced out. Although the power contained in it was greatly reduced, it still far exceeded the limits of ordinary destiny travelers.

"You're a lunatic to come up with such a plan, but to be able to give you my cornerstone and take risks with you, it seems that everyone in the Strategic Investment Department of the Interstellar Peace Company is crazy.

No, or to put it another way, for this little [Pinoconi], the three Stone Hearts and ten people didn't hesitate to stake a cornerstone equivalent to their own lives. Your investment department is more united than the [family], white jade, aventurine, and -... emerald stone."

Latio couldn't help but sigh.

The gold dust next to him smiled.

"Like I said, Professor, three chips are enough, everything or nothing. Apparently, I won this time."

Raising his hand to touch his own cracked foundation, Sha Jin couldn't help but sigh in his heart, perhaps his own foundation should be like this, full of cracks, just like his own fragmented life~

It looks bright and beautiful, but in fact it is just pieced together, and it is shaky and may break and collapse at any time.

From this perspective, Sunday’s failure to recognize that the “aventurine” was fake may also mean that he not only lacks the ability to identify gemstones, but also has a poor eye for people.

But it's just as Latio said.

Who could have imagined that gold dust would become the cornerstone of [Pinoconi].

Not one, not two, but three!

The cornerstone that Sunday used as his cornerstone was actually the jadeite [Diandai Jadeite]. Because the color of aventurine is very similar to that of jadeite, it is often used as a substitute for the latter. However, compared to the rare and expensive jadeite, aventurine is cheaper.

Use expensive jade to disguise as cheap gold sand.

This is another trick of confusing pearls with fish.

No wonder Sunday didn’t recognize it.

As for why such a big fuss...

Gold Dust: "That bastard with wings on his head has an almost obsessive desire for control. I have to give him enough information so that he thinks he's seen through me, but without revealing any flaws."

Latio: "So you deliberately let me leak your plan. To avoid Sunday's suspicion, you told me that more than 95% of the plan was true."

Gold Dust: "That's right. People are most easily deceived when they think they've seen through their opponent and let their guard down."

Sunday saw through Latio's mouth that the cornerstone in the box was not aventurine, and found the emerald stone used to disguise as aventurine, thinking that he had seen through the gambler's trick.

So he handed the luggage bag to Sha Jin with confidence.

The move seemed like a nice taunt on Sunday.

But he could never have imagined that there were two cornerstones hidden in such a luggage bag full of cheap jewels, but one was intact and the other was shattered.

Latio: "Hmph, so those are your three bargaining chips? Although you succeeded in obtaining this fragmented aventurine, you also paid the price of two cornerstones for it. Was it worth it?"

Gold Dust: "Haha~ Of course it's not worth it, but even if it's not worth it, it's much better than not having any chips and being doomed to lose. After all, only when you have some money left in your hand can you have a chance to turn the tables."

Having said that, Sha Jin put away his cornerstone, but the next second his eyes became sharp and he looked at Latio with some resentment.

"But Professor, I never said you could open the box for Sunday. That was not in my plan. I never intended to lose the cornerstone of the white jade."

"Damn gambler, are you teaching me how to do things? If I hadn't stopped Sunday, you would have become a puppet of [Tongxie]."

Latio looked at the Gold Dust without any fear. If the latter did not use the [Ghostly Gold Dust] cornerstone, his fist as big as a sandbag could lift up the gambler in front of him like a sandbag and beat him up.

Sha Jin's eyes twitched wildly, and he subconsciously took a few steps back.

"But you can't..."

"Hmph! Do you think I want to use the White Jade Foundation to save your life, a life you don't even value? You've seen Sunday's attitude. He truly intends to make you his puppet."

Latio glared at Gold Sand and said.

Perhaps they had encountered too many bad things that day that made their blood pressure jump. When I saw them on Sunday, they were still faintly emitting black energy all over their bodies, and it was obvious that they were in the process of becoming evil.

And in fact, when Sunday sent someone to find Latio and planned to poach him to betray him, he had already stated that he would take extreme measures to directly control a certain gambler.

"If I hadn't shown a little sincerity back then and opened the box containing the white jade cornerstone and handed it to him, so that the Oak Family Master would have had more trust in me, then he probably wouldn't have listened even if I had pleaded for you later, and you would probably have become his slave by now."

"........."

Sha Jin was suddenly speechless, but he still felt confused.

"Professor, if you think my life isn't worth the preciousness of the White Jade Cornerstone, why did you save me at the cost of that cornerstone? Incidentally, I also feel that my life isn't worth that."

“…You’re being honest at a time like this, but the reason I did this is because of you!!”

"Ah? What does it have to do with me?"

Sha Jin was confused. It sounded like it was his fault.

Latio snorted coldly at this and folded his elbows helplessly.

"I've lost count of how many times you've told me about Bai Yu on the way here. Even though I've only known him for less than a day, I can guess from what you've said... In that situation, if it were him, he would definitely use his cornerstone to save you."

"........."

After these words were spoken, Sha Jin fell silent again.

Indeed, looking back on his friendship with Bai Yu so far, he found that the man never cared much about him. He was an overly kind guy who regarded the happiness of those around him as his own happiness.

Therefore, if Bai Yu was there just now, Sha Jin could completely imagine the scene of him giving up his own foundation to help him. Well, although in reality, if Bai Yu was really there, Sunday would probably have been over.

Scratching his head vigorously, Sha Jin sighed bitterly.

"Sorry, and thanks, Professor."

"You should thank Bai Yu if you want to. The foundation stone isn't mine."

"Oh~ But what should I do?"

Sha Jin showed a look of distress. He no longer thought about how to complete the company's mission. After all, the most important thing now was to find the white jade cornerstone! [Flawless White Jade] must not be lost!

But now they have no clues at all. Latio did not expect that Sunday would actually give the [Flawless White Jade] cornerstone to someone else. And if the other party is really as Sunday said, a mysterious and elusive person comparable to the Phantom Thief, then it would be too difficult to deal with.

"Don't forget Jade's cornerstone. Baiyu might not be angry if he knew we lost his cornerstone, but based on my understanding of Ms. Ciyu, if you lost her cornerstone..."

"Haha~ I will definitely die miserably."

Sha Jin shuddered as he imagined it. In an instant, he thought of more than a dozen possible outcomes in which no complete corpse could be left. However, he did not feel panicked about the cornerstone of jade.

"[Pawn Jade], don't be nervous. That bastard with wings on his head is going to keep a cornerstone for himself as insurance. As long as he holds onto that cornerstone... when I win, he'll have to hand it over even if he doesn't want to."

"Well, the key now is to recover the [Flawless White Jade]?"

"That's right, but...how should I find it?"

Sha Jin looked up at the sky in distress, wondering if he could just find a branch and stand it up, then look for the thing wherever it fell.

Although this is a bit outrageous, it seems that he can only rely on luck to find the lost cornerstone under the current conditions.

However, just when Shajin was about to do this...

Didi! !

Suddenly, a message came from his terminal. Sha Jin's thoughts were interrupted and he took a quick look. Then his whole body froze. Latio, who saw the same message next to him, was also stunned.

Because the sender was Bai Yu.

Latio: "...How should I explain?"

Gold Dust: "...Just be honest."

Latio: "Well, now we have no choice but to be honest, so why don't you click it? We need to tell Baiyu quickly."

Gold Dust: "Wait! Let me prepare myself mentally. Take a deep breath~hisshiss! Huh~Open it slowly."

Latio: "...How interesting! I didn't see you this nervous even when I was gambling with my life. By the way, can you open text messages slowly?"

Shajin gave Latio a cold look, then clicked on the text message with trembling fingers. The next second, both of them were stunned, their peacock-spotted eyes and golden pupils widened, both of them speechless with surprise.

Bai Yu: [Hi~ How's the plan going? Is it going smoothly? By the way, I'm having a blast here. Oh, and by the way~ I just found a great item. Qiangqiang~ Isn't it a perfect match for me?]

Gold Dust: “???”

Latio: “???”

In the photo attached to the message, the young man in white was holding a flawless white jade in his hand. He raised the [Flawless White Jade] high into the night sky, and the base looked like the moon of [Pinoconi].

This missing cornerstone, which had caused Gold Sand and Latio immense worry, had unexpectedly returned to its owner's hands! !

Bai Yu: [I'm going to continue playing. Sand Gold, you guys too, don't worry, just go for it.]

The message ended and Bai Yu’s avatar dimmed and went offline.

Gold Sand and Latio were silent for a moment.

The gambler was the first to burst into a hearty and joyful laugh.

"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! So amazing! You're just like me, Bai Yu. You always exceed my expectations!"
