Arknights, Suika's Messenger Journey

Just help me mail the most recent one. Do you have an envelope?"

Wang Po asked with an embarrassed look on her face.

"Yes!" Suixiang took out a brand new envelope from the messenger bag and handed it to the other party.

After a while, Wang Po handed the letter to Cui Xiang.

"Then I'll trouble you, Suika-chan!"

"No trouble, this is my job! Then I'll be leaving first..."

Suika pointed to the door and prepared to leave.

Wang Po grabbed a handful of candy from the table and handed it to Cuixiang

"There's nothing delicious at home. Take these candies and try them."

Suixiang didn't hesitate and took the candy with a bright smile on her face. "Thank you, Granny Wang!"

After saying that, he put the letter into the messenger bag and left as the two old men saw him off.

After walking away, Suixiang reached out and wiped the sweat from her head.

The old man was so enthusiastic that she couldn't stand it.

When I got near my home, I looked up at the sky. The weather was good today. Even the cold winter wind could not blow away the warm sunshine.

After touching her belly, Cuixiang saw Uncle Dong’s seafood store and the fish ball store next to it not far away, and walked in.

"Boss, give me one of our signature fish balls!"

After saying that, she found an empty seat and sat down.

The people in the house heard the noise outside and came out. When they saw Suika, they noticed the bag hanging on her waist and couldn't help but smile.

"Hey, messenger bag... Are you the little messenger who woke up on our street?"

Suika patted the bag

"Yes, uncle, do you want to send a letter?"

"Uncle has been in Longmen for most of his life. The people he knew in the outside world have long since changed. Little girl, you've asked the wrong person."

Although the old man said that he didn't know anyone who needed to send a letter, Suika still noticed a flash of nostalgia in his eyes.

As for who I miss, recalling the setting, it’s probably Master Zixu from Gou Wucheng.

Soon a large portion of fish balls was delivered to Suixiang

"Can you finish your meal, little girl?"

"No problem, I have a big appetite!" Suixiang took out chopsticks from the side and started eating with a grunt.

Seeing the girl eating so happily, the old man smiled with satisfaction.

"By the way, girl, why did you choose this street? You know, there aren't many letters to handle here... The previous courier left after less than two months because there was no work."

The diners next to them looked at Suika and wondered why anyone would choose this street. After all, it was generally known that there was no money to be made here.

"Because I live here, the house over there." Suixiang stuck her head out and pointed at Xingxiong's house.

"That house, I remember it was the home of that kid Xingxiong!"

Cuixiang sighed that he was worthy of being a person living in an old street and an old house, as he could recognize the owner of the house at a glance.

“Yes, I’m living in Sister Xingxiong’s house now.

Uncles and aunts, if you have any letters to send, you can send them directly to where I live. Unless there are special circumstances, I am usually at home in the afternoon. "

This was the truth, so Suika didn't hide it.

"Okay!" The diners responded with a smile.

After finishing lunch and walking back into the house, Suixiang first opened the Ibuki gourd. The gourd that had been drunk empty last night was now filled with a full pot of fine wine again.

Sitting on the sofa, she tried to recall what came out of the three cash boxes yesterday.

After a while, Suika gave up thinking.

Because she put three portions of money into the box at the same time, she got the things at the same time.

"Choose the soldiers and generals, ride on horses to fight..." Since we don't know who to choose, then naturally leave the power to God.

Finally, Suika pointed to the leftmost chain representing the triangle.

Taking out the money given by Shi Huaiya, Suixiang took the Ibuki ladle and drank a full gulp.

"May the God of Luck close his eyes for me three times, may my bloodline live on forever, may my card draws never go wrong, and may my all-in poker be fully loaded!"

Then he resolutely threw one thousand of them into the coin box on the left.

The next second, a surge of power came over me.

"Here it comes, here it comes, it is the Supreme Power..."

One second, Suika was full of anticipation, and the next, her eyes widened in disbelief.

What she got was indeed powerful in one aspect, because it was ability.

In the setting of Gensokyo, abilities are almost unique to a certain person and are also the source of power. By deducing based on one's own abilities, one can gain powerful strength.

This would have been a good thing, but her new ability was that she would not be rejected when she urged people to drink.

When Suika saw this ability, she was stunned. Although this thing was in Suika's secondary setting, she really didn't want to see it at this time.

This is even more speechless than fighting with bare hands. At least the latter can surprise the enemy on the battlefield.

But I can’t refuse someone’s offer to drink… How can I develop this ability…

Is it possible that during the battle, he suddenly took out Ibuki Hyaku and said

"Brother, you must be tired from fighting. If you are tired, come and have a drink first..."

When she thought of this scene, she felt that it was too miserable.

When she thought about the fact that this was an ability she had obtained by spending her hard-earned money of a thousand Longmen coins, she felt even worse.

It took a while for Suika to come back to her senses, clutching her chest.

Faced with this somewhat ridiculous ability, she could only say that since she was here, she had to use it even if it was useless. Tooth Crown did not admit that it was a matter of bad luck, but that this ability must be of great use and was a gift from the goddess of luck. It was just that she had not yet found the real way to use this ability.

After calming down, Suixiang looked at the three boxes in front of her again, feeling a little conflicted.

What we know now is that offering sacrifices to the money box represented by the triangle on the far left can gain strange abilities, which are basic talents. If one of the other two gives Ibuki Utaha, it is likely to give props, and the last one gives skills.

She now has two choices: continue to gamble on basic abilities. After all, for a newcomer with nothing, the potential of ability or talent is the greatest...

Chapter 13: Save a sip of wine for your fish!

Or use the remaining money to find out what the links behind the remaining two cash boxes are for.

Considering that the power of this thousand yuan is so "powerful", the probability of good stuff coming out of the remaining two may not be high.

It is really better to bet on a new ability than to spend a thousand dollars to bet on a rubbish prop or a skill that may not be used or has a narrow range of use. After all, the growth potential represented by the ability is there, and you don’t have to worry about safety issues at the moment, so a higher growth ceiling is naturally the best choice.

Of course, the premise is that there doesn’t appear an ability that is as annoying as “no one will be refused when urging you to drink” and has no upper limit.

After thinking it over, Suixiang didn't rush to draw, because she felt that the reason she drew that crappy ability before was probably because she was not pious enough.

So she went to take a shower and change her clothes, then put on her original clothes, and then found three bowls, filled them with wine and put them on the table, and then began to dance around the table, chanting

"I'm going all-in, I'm going all-in, I'm going to draw cards, I'm spinning the roulette wheel with destiny, I'm risking everything, I'm going to be called the Sturgeon, and I give it all to Lady Luck!"

According to the rules of the spell, she walked around the table nine times, chanted the spell nine times, then stood in front of the table and drank all three bowls of wine in one gulp.

Then he generously threw the last thousand Longmen coins into the cash box on the far left.

Five seconds later, her expression was likened to the lyrics: "A hundred miles of red, red with a hint of black, black and dull, green and blue, purple without a trace..."

Her initial idea was not wrong. The reward for paying tribute in the money box on the far left was indeed related to one's ability.

The previous one, if you ask for a drink, will not be rejected, it is a very unconventional one.

What she has just acquired is something strange—the ability to hold a banquet when at least three people are gathered.

At this moment, Suika had a face full of questions.

She could understand every word, but it seemed as if she couldn't understand every word...

What is the function of this ability?

What can be done?

What improvements can be achieved through this ability?

Suika's little head was filled with big question marks.

Then she fell straight onto the sofa at the back like a salted fish that had lost its faith.

Now she regrets it very much, extremely, and extremely regrets it.

What is this equivalent to? All the synthetic jades are bet on the high platform, and the final result is indeed a double gold, but one is an empty string and the other is a far tooth...

I can only say that it looks beautiful, but in fact, only those who understand will understand.

At this moment, she imagined traveling back to a few minutes ago. She would definitely try her best to stop her former self and resolutely not let herself waste money on this.

Unfortunately, time is like flowing water, and it will never come back.

She didn't have the ability to go back to the past, so she could only swallow the bitter result.

At this time, she could only drink to relieve her sorrow, holding her Ibuki Pyori and drinking heartily.

When Xingxiong returned home in the evening and opened the door, he saw the same scene as yesterday: the strong smell of alcohol in the living room, and Ibuki Suika lying on the sofa, drunk.

The difference is that Chen is traveling with them today. She wants to observe closely what kind of person this child who suddenly disappeared and came back yesterday is.

"Such a strong smell of alcohol...hiss~How much did she drink?" Even though he was standing outside the door, Chen could smell the smell of alcohol coming from the house and couldn't help but say in surprise.

Xingxiong's eyebrows twitched, and she was angry again from the bottom of her heart. Only a small part of this anger was directed at Suixiang. After all, she was just a child.

A bigger part is the bastard businessman who secretly sold alcohol to minors.

She swore that when she caught the damn guy, she would let him know why the flowers were so red.

After the two entered the house, Xingxiong reached out and patted Suika's face.

"Little devil, wake up, little devil!"

Suika opened her eyes dazedly and saw a figure swaying in front of her.

"One, two..." Then he pointed to his nose and said, "Three, hey, just enough!"

The next moment, the originally deserted room turned into a dazzling array of colors, and all kinds of messy but cute graffiti appeared on the walls.

And countless fine wines and delicacies appeared out of thin air on the originally empty table.

Xingxiong and Chen stood back to back, looking at the house which had changed drastically.

"Is this a balloon?" Chen reached out and grabbed a floating balloon, squeezed it and found that it was just an ordinary balloon.

"The banquet has begun. Please enjoy the delicious food and fine wine while you enjoy the golden song 'Free a Heart from Sorrow' sung by Miss Mockingbird and accompanied by the Dream Band."

An announcer with a Victorian accent came from the void, and then the sound of melodious music came into the ears of the two from all directions.

"What's going on!" Chen felt that he was knowledgeable, but he had never seen such a strange situation.

Moreover, I have never heard of Miss Mockingbird and Dream Awakening Band.

Xingxiong shook her head. She was also confused now.

After all, my house was fine when I opened the door, but now it has become like this...

It looked like a small "banquet", but when they entered the room, there was nothing in it. So how did these things appear?

After hearing what Suika said when she woke up, the two of them turned their eyes towards Suika at the same time.

At this moment, she was half asleep and half awake, looking at the various foods piled on the seat and the three empty bowls in the middle, and she always felt that something was not right.

Then he picked up the Ibuki ladle and filled the three bowls.

After she finished everything, she looked up and saw the gazes of Xingxiong and Chen.

Subconsciously she said, "Why are you looking at me? Come and drink!"

The two people who were still cautiously observing the surrounding situation felt a special feeling rising in their hearts. They just thought that since it had come to this, it might not be a bad idea to have a drink.

After Suixiang raised her wine bowl, the two of them also picked up a bowl and drank it all.
