"Stop kidding! How can we possibly calculate based on market prices at this point? Besides, any 100% success rate is a lie! Listen, the so-called future will change after we know the [divination results], so being able to maintain a near 30% success rate is considered top-tier in this industry!"

"Heh, change your destiny? Hehehe... Hehehehe"

Zhixing had always looked down on the Fortune Teller, and upon hearing this, he just wanted to express his disdain, but who knew that he could hardly stop laughing after hearing this.

"Are you okay? Kyubey!"

Zhi Xing gestured with his hand, stopping Lucky from stepping forward to help. He then wiped away a tear, his lips twitching as he spoke:

"As for the ending of the script, I had already revealed the list of survivors before the first incident, using the [idol]'s question. Heh~"

"Tell me, what has changed in the current situation?"

"Impossible! There must be a way to change it! Otherwise... Sakura..."

[Swimming] came out of the room because of the angry voice of [Fortune Teller] and the laughter of Paper Shop. He stood up and refuted with a firm face, but his eyes were already wet with tears from the anticipated outcome.

"Ha! That's not because you're not a [Prophet], so no one believes what you say, that's the normal reaction!"

"Only by placing your trust in others can the future be changed. Otherwise, if you end up with a future that matches your prediction, isn't that your own incompetence?"

"Um... [Bystander] isn't a talent like prophecy, right? It's just that the scenario I got is very similar to the current situation."

[Lucky] wanted to defend Zhixing, but the already angry [Fortune Teller] was also very angry at Zhixing's attitude.

"I don't care whether it's his talent or the script or something. Anyway, you've seen the future, right? So choosing to change, isn't that the right thing to do?"

"[Divination] is just a scientific prediction of possibilities. If you choose to accept a prophecy of your own death knowing it's coming, no one would be willing to pay for that kind of future!"

"So... what did you divine earlier?"

Zhixing asked the question in a daze, and without anyone noticing, the witch's kiss on Zhixing's neck was becoming more and more lively.

"After encountering this kind of thing, the first thing I did was to [divine] my own situation. As long as I don't do anything unnecessary, I will definitely be able to leave this academy with everyone else!"

"Hehe... then... what about the other one?"

"The other one is the one I helped Naegi-chin [divination]. My child and Naegi-chin's child have the same mother!"

"Hey~ It's the bad ending worldline... Doesn't that happen after... the [Detective] dies... and they're trapped in the academy... and only four people survive?"

The [Detective] who was just watching the fun from the side couldn't help but raise an eyebrow. After noticing that the paper bank was in a very strange state, he couldn't help but ask:

"If you believe the future is unchangeable, what is the biggest difficulty you are facing now?"

Zhixing tilted his head, thought for a moment with a somewhat idiotic look, and said:

"Since... you want to prove your ability... then, help me find the only hope for the [Idol] to survive... hehe~"

"Okay, let me prove it to you!"

The Fortune Teller no longer thought about the reward, but immediately started to operate on the only remaining crystal ball.

Just two minutes later, the Fortune Teller came up with a result.

"I see, finding a teddy bear will help [idol]!"

"Bear? Hehe... Bear.... Hmm? Bear?!"

Chapter 361 Two Transactions

"Um, teddy bear, you mean Monokuma, right?"

Although he only listened for a while, [Swimming] couldn't help but ask:

"Even though [Gambler] didn't trade for the privilege of not being voted out, Kyubey still used up his own privilege. Does he have any other privileges?"

"No, Xiao Kui, maybe there's still a possibility of making a deal with the person behind Monokuma. I don't think the privilege of being a [Gambler] was obtained through a deal."

[Fighter] thought of this possibility and put forward his own opinion.

The Detective, being the calmer of the group present, didn't get caught up in speculation. Instead, he glanced at the Fighter and asked the Fortuneteller:

"Why didn't you say Monokuma, but a teddy bear? Could you describe in detail what you divined?"

"That thing, how should I put it? It looks a lot like a bear. I don't think it has that furry feel. It should be a teddy bear, right?"

[Fortune Teller] was also a little puzzled by this. After all, as a person who makes money by fortune telling, he usually deals with things that are encountered in the operation of the city. He never thought that he would be fortune-telling about animals, so he couldn't recognize it at all.

"I'm so disgusted! I've taken good care of my figure so it won't be easily seen."

The black and white bear appeared from nowhere and looked at the crystal ball with no picture on it, with an expression of praise on his face.

"Are you okay? Did you remember anything?"

Although [Lucky] was also concerned about the bear that was predicted, he was really uneasy about [Onlooker]'s performance, so he kept an eye on the situation of the paper line.

"It's okay, I've calmed down. I just lost control of my emotions and felt desperate for a moment. It's okay."

Zhixing stood there weakly, looking like he was fine, but he was indeed very calm at this moment.

Although in Madoka Magica, the feeling of despair caused by the Witch's Kiss could be easily dispelled, at this moment, Paper Line has another way to clear out this unnecessary emotion.

Zhi Xing reached into his pocket and took out the dust and pebbles that had accidentally splashed into his pocket after using [Buffer] twice. Then he looked at the stone in his hand and said:

"Although you want money, I won't give you unlimited amounts. So, the 100,000 we agreed on is 100,000. Take it."

After Zhixing finished speaking, the small stone in his hand seemed to have undergone some changes. It began to grow bigger, and the overall color also changed to yellow.

"Could it be that..."

As a staunch materialist, the "Detective" who believes that all ghosts are played by humans is the first to realize what Zhixing wants to do.

And then, this speculation was witnessed by everyone.

A golden reflection appeared in Zhi Xing's hands, and then more and more sand and stones began to grow and split, finally.

"Da~da~da~"

Stones kept falling from Zhixing's hands, and the light in Zhixing's hands became brighter and brighter, and the amount of stones and sand also increased.

After a while, Zhi Xing sighed slightly, and then the stone in his hand stopped splitting, but gradually became fixed, and the light began to converge.

"Sorry, there are no blocks. I can only point out this amount of gold. I don't know how much there is, but based on your gold price, it should be enough."

Zhixing glanced at the fortune teller in front of him who was shocked by the scene, and feeling the quiet and silent environment at the moment, he knew in his heart that no contract had been reached in this transaction.

So Zhi Xing just took a look at the pile of golden stones in front of him, and casually spread his hands apart, letting the stones fall from his hands.

Compared to the gold and stones that had just appeared and fallen to the ground, the sound of these falling stones also woke everyone up from this magical scene.

"Is this the Midas Touch?"

"What are you doing? This is all my money! Don't grab it!"

Amidst Lucky's questioning, the Fortuneteller quickly picked up a gold stone from the ground and checked it. Then, when he saw other people also picking up gold stones that had rolled to their feet, he couldn't help but shout loudly.

"Although I could probably get cash directly by going outside, after all...but since I have the opportunity, I think it would be faster to exchange this."

Although Zhixing said this, he sighed in his heart.

I clearly feel that I am already very emotional, but is it still impossible to use it to recognize pure gold?

Is it because gold is controlled that finished gold products are marked, so they can only maintain the appearance of stone?

Or... in everyone's mind, is the alchemist's highest achievement, [Turning Stone into Gold], only limited to this level?

Zhixing initially wanted to magnify the small stone in his hand through cognition, and then use the effect of light to mislead the hundreds of millions of eyes watching the live broadcast.

But everyone can indeed see the luster of gold, and probably because of its small size, it transformed into its intended appearance very quickly.

But the stone that was trying to expand split apart and turned into many golden stones and golden sand.

This is also the first time that the paper industry has faced changes in public perception in reality. Naturally, personal perception is no match for the public. Whether it is the time of stopping or the way of changing, it is out of the influence of the paper industry's preconceived ideas.

But no matter what, the paper industry did produce these gold stones that have the appearance and quality of gold.

As long as they are not used for chemical reactions or dissolved, it is highly likely that no difference can be detected between these things and real gold.

Zhixing originally wanted to create diamonds, but perhaps turning stone into gold is easier for people to accept than compressing it into diamonds, so Zhixing was unable to recognize even a single diamond.

"Where are you going?"

Although he felt that his worldview was being shattered, the [Detective], who had already lost his memory and was constantly recalling his memories, quickly noticed the paper movement.

"Go and try it out, the conclusion of [Divination]."

"Eh? What about today's deal? We already agreed that I should be the one doing the trading today! Tell us how to save Sakura before you leave!"

Zhixing turned his head and glanced at [Swimming], then looked at [Fighter] who was somewhat evasive. He immediately realized that [Fighter] was the insider whose identity had not yet been revealed, so he simply responded:

"I'm sorry, but I have something urgent to do right now. It might take me a long time. Let's talk next time we meet."

"Next time?! When is next time?! What are we going to do if Sakura-chan gets into trouble?!"

A simple verbal rejection will not make [Swimming] give up.

So, facing the fast-moving Paper Line, [Swimming] quickly ran in front of the Paper Line, opened his arms wide to block the Paper Line's path, and said firmly in a trembling voice that was a little afraid of the unknown:

"The one for today's transaction has been taken by the Fortune Teller, but there should be a day before that when the transaction is not completed. So bring one over here! If you don't complete the transaction now, I won't let you go!"

Zhixing looked at the person in front of him with his eyes closed, as if he would not let you go until he achieved his goal, no matter what means you used. He once again felt grateful for the help the witch had given him.

When faced with a threatening attack, the witch can lure the opponent in through the barrier. Although it is unknown how much of a threat this is judged to be, it will usually be diverted away before contact occurs.

Currently, except for the [soldiers] and the masters of Liangshanpo, no one can have close contact with them and get stuck in a bug that prevents them from being transferred away.

But faced with such a harmless obstruction, the witch's barrier had no way to transfer the other party away unless I took the initiative to contact them and went in together.

Seeing that the only passage to the fifth floor was blocked, Zhixing subconsciously began to look at the walls on both sides, trying to figure out which side was the wall of the room and which side was outside the academy.

There is no other way. There are pieces of paper that can travel through different dimensions. Although they cannot move real people away, they can move themselves away.

Whether it's [going through the wall] to take the route next door, or going back and continuing [wall jumping], or even using the witch's barrier to avoid entities, using the wall to [avoid] going upstairs.

Except for the risk of being teleported downstairs by [Avoiding], you can bypass the obstacles and go to the 5th floor to take the [idol]'s body away from the freezer in the biology room.

Although [Swimming] stopped [Onlooker] from an ordinary person's perspective, and simply closed his eyes to avoid being scared and moving out of the way, [Lucky] behind Paper Line clearly saw Paper Line looking at the wall, and shouted:

"Wait! [Observer], I know you're anxious, but... Asahi-san is also anxious, so..."

"I'm offering you a deal. Could you please stay here and complete your deal with [Swimming]? I can... I can help you pick out the food you need."

Zhi Xing stopped thinking about taking action, and turned around to look at Lucky, wondering:

"Are you offering me a trade?"

"Yes, it was I who proposed the deal to you, so it won't affect the deal you made. Can you accept this?"

"If this fratricidal situation is intended to create impossible people, then you should want to leave a difficult problem for someone who has acquired impossible talents to solve."

"Although I'm not sure if the last person is me, but since you need it but are unwilling to trade with me, then I'll do it!"

Zhi Xing fell silent, as if he was thinking. After a long while, he let out a long sigh and said:

"Okay, then, please prepare three days' worth of food for four or five people. It must be non-toxic."

"Hey, shouldn't the number of people involved in the previous accident be an even number? Why..."

"I know, I'm going now!"

The doubts of the Fortune Teller did not affect the decision of Luck.

Just as [Lucky] took that step, a voice that had been heard several times came from [Lucky].

"I am you...you are me..."

"Here, you gain a brand new bond."

""

Zhi Xing looked at [Lucky] who easily escaped from [Swimming]'s defense and the sound that could no longer be heard as the distance increased. His mood, which had originally calmed down, was disturbed again.

"Is this the impossible man?"

"But is this how the contracted party feels? Is this a sound that both parties can hear normally?"

Zhi Xing blinked, temporarily suppressing the doubts in his heart. He looked at the [Fighter] and Monokuma who left with [Lucky], then looked at the [Fortune Teller] who was picking up gold, and the [Detective] who was watching the scene at the crossroads. Finally, he spoke to [Swimming] who was unaware of [Lucky]'s departure:

"So, what do you want to trade? Tell me now."

[Swimming] nervously opened one eye and confirmed:

"Are you willing to make a deal with me?"

Zhihang nodded.

Swimming took a long breath, then quickly inhaled it and said to the paper:
