I'm doing abstract animation

"I work at Yukinoshita Construction Group, and she really is our president's daughter!"

A young man wearing glasses said loudly with an excited expression.

Great, you work for a construction company, right? You can go collect your wages tomorrow.

Yukino's face darkened, and she silently memorized the young man's appearance.

Damn it, the box has been opened.

This made the onlookers even more excited.

That's a gold bar worth 400 million yen!

"Hmph↗↘"

Yuki Risa let out a perfectly timed cold snort, and the entire scene instantly fell silent.

This is our big spender, we can't interrupt him!

"The game is set as King of Fighters '97. There will only be one match. I have no interest in fighting noobs. You guys can fight each other first, and the winner can come and fight me. Oh, and no naked kills or infinite combos!"

"Fight, my lords! Without fighting, there is no survival!!"

"Oh oh oh!"

The people around them instantly cheered and raised their arms in excitement!

fighting?

Yukino thought Yukiri's words were a bit childish and funny, but when she turned her head and looked at the group of onlookers with red eyes, she immediately stopped laughing.

She instantly understood: This is a fucking battle!

Gold worth 400 million yen! Not to mention these miserable students and office workers, even she couldn't help but get excited!

"Looks like it's time to show our true strength!"

A long-lost look of passion appeared on her face.

................................................

"KO!"

Yukino Yukinoshita stared at the screen with a dark expression. She had lost, lost completely, without even getting a chance to touch her opponent.

The opponent was a girl with a flushed face and strange clothes.

Honestly, she didn't think she was bad at the game. It was just a game, and she had played it before. Although she couldn't compare to professional players, she could be considered a pro in college. But even so, she was completely outmatched by her opponent.

They encountered a strange black cat on the road, and despite their best efforts, they could not defeat it...

This girl's skills are amazing, maybe...

Her eyes flickered, and she took the initiative to call out to Gokou Ruri, who was about to head to the next area.

The entire arcade was divided into four areas by Yuuki. The first three areas were the arenas where players would draw lots to compete, and the last area was the final battleground against him.

As for whether the owner will have any objections to this arrangement of the arcade...

What?! The boss got promoted?!

That's not surprising...

"Little sister, I have a favor to ask you."

Yukinoshita called out to Ruri Gokou, who was about to leave.

"What's up?"

Ruri Gokou stared with her beautiful big eyes at her first-round opponent, a woman she remembered as the heiress of the Yukinoshita Group.

"I want to work with you, little sister."

Yukino Yukinoshita wore her usual smile.

"cooperate?"

Ruri Gokou looked completely bewildered.

She's just a poor student, what's the point of cooperating with her?

Volume 1: Chapter 39 The Cooperation of Two Women

"Yes, we're cooperating. After playing against you, I found your gaming skills to be extremely high. You're probably the only one among these people who has a chance to defeat that guy."

Yukino Yukinoshita looked completely sincere, and she wasn't lying about this. This competition was purely due to Yuuki Risa's sudden illness, so there were no professional players involved. The participants were either office workers, students, or even homeless people from the street.

She is quite confident in her judgment.

"Um..." Ruri Gokou was still a little confused: "Thank you for the compliment, but I still don't quite understand what you mean."

She was well aware of her own skill level; in fact, she had never encountered an opponent.

So when she heard Yuuki Osamu say that the gold brick was actually the prize, she felt like she'd been struck by lightning... a gold brick had fallen from the sky!

Mom and Dad, we'll have money soon!

As if envisioning a wonderful future, a strange smile appeared on Ruri Gokou's face.

Yukinoshita Yono: "?"

Why did this child suddenly start giggling like that?

"Little sister, have you thought about what you'll do after you get that gold brick?"

Ruri Gokou quickly wiped the silly grin off her face and began to ponder.

"Should I buy a Photoshop first, or get a new computer, or maybe a new phone first...?"

Yukinoshita Yono: "..."

Her lips twitched slightly, and she politely interrupted, "Little sister, haven't you thought about how to cash out the gold bars?"

"Cash it out?" Ruri Gokou looked completely bewildered. "Why not just sell it to a jewelry store?"

Yukino Yukinoshita: "...That's an impossible little sister."

Although she was utterly speechless inside, thinking about her plan, she patiently explained to Gokou Ruri: "Putting aside whether ordinary gold shops have that much working capital, the fact that this gold bar doesn't have a certificate makes it impossible for any gold shop to accept it. Moreover, not only would they not accept it, they might even secretly try to steal your gold bar!"

This little girl seems rather naive...

It's good to be ignorant. If everyone were as abstract as that bastard Yuuki Osamu, what fun would there be in this society?

Yukinoshita Haruno decides to scare her.

As expected, her intimidation was very effective; Gokou Ruri's face, which had been dreaming of a wonderful life, immediately fell down.

"You think they'll steal my gold bricks too?"

Yukinoshita Yono: "..."

Is this all it takes for you?

Her lips twitched, ignoring Gokou Ruri's fantasy, and she explained, "But you can cooperate with me. I can give you the gold bricks to cash out, and all you have to do is agree to cooperate with me. I'll explain the rest to that guy."

Is it so good?

Ruri Gokou was a little suspicious, but she quickly remembered the conversation she had overheard between the two of them, and her little brain immediately came to its senses.

I guess the heiress of the Yukinoshita family is using me to get that video back, right?

She nodded secretly. Since that was the case, she had no reason to hesitate and immediately agreed to Yukinoshita Haruno's cooperation.

After all, she didn't suffer any loss, did she?

The two hit it off.

Yuki sat in the finals area, looking nostalgically at the bustling arcade.

People pounded on the arcade machines with red eyes, their shouts of excitement, anger, and crying filling the air.

It's back! The scenes from my childhood are back!

He still remembers how, as a little boy with a runny nose, he was led by his cousin into a small shop surrounded by a blue curtain, which opened the door to a new world for him. He was completely shocked at that time. There was no other game console in the world besides the Little Tyrant.

So from then on, he gave up snacks and spent every day with a dollar in his hand going behind that blue curtain to learn the skills.

To be honest, the balance of King of Fighters '97 is very poor. It is far inferior to Street Fighter and Tekken of the same era. That's why it banned naked kills and infinite combos. These two things don't depend on skill at all. Once you get close to someone, you're done for.

Even though King of Fighters '97 has terrible balance, it can't affect its status in China, because it's cool!

Back then, people in China really loved this kind of thing, especially Iori Yagami. His little red hair attracted countless players, and even Yuuki Osamu was deeply influenced by it, subconsciously using fire in his fighting style. It's a pity he didn't have purple fire, otherwise it would have been a fatal blow...

He naturally saw Yukino's little tricks the whole time, but he didn't care because he was invincible!

'Back in the day, I was known as the King of Fighters Little Tyrant, how could I possibly lose?'

He sat there quietly in the final zone, watching everyone play games until their faces were flushed. He didn't find it noisy at all; instead, he felt a sense of nostalgia because it reminded him so much of his childhood. Back then, the gaming environment he was in was just like this, even without the lure of money...

Ruri Gokou did not disappoint Haruno Yukinoshita's expectations, and stormed through the competition to reach the final selection battle.

The final opponent was a man wearing glasses.

Yukino's face darkened. Wasn't this the guy who worked at her family's construction company?

"Even if my opponent is the president's daughter, I won't hold back!"

The bespectacled man pushed up his glasses and looked at her with an air of unwavering determination.

"No, no, no, your opponent is not me."

Yukino's face darkened even more. She really knew how to rub salt in the wound. She decided to talk to her father about it tomorrow.

Ruri Gokou sat silently in front of the arcade, her calm face showing no emotion whatsoever; perhaps the only change was in her eyes.

As she continued to win, the pupils of her eyes gradually evolved towards the shape of a Japanese woman.

Seeing that his opponent was already waiting for him, the bespectacled man stopped talking and stepped forward to fight Ruri Gokou.

five minutes later……

"How, how is it possible..."

The bespectacled man slumped to the ground, trembling, his eyes filled with terror as he looked at Gokou Ruri: "How could someone be so strong?!"

The people around them also made a commotion.

"I know that little girl, she's the undefeated legend of Chiba!"

"Oh, is there such a setting?"

"It's true, I lost to her too. Her moves were absolutely outrageous!"

……

Won!

A rare hint of excitement appeared on Ruri Gokou's face. It wasn't the excitement of a hard-fought battle against a worthy opponent, but rather the excitement of seeing four hundred million yen beckoning to her...

"Wow, so you're the ultimate victor?"

Yuki came to her side, looking down at the petite and exquisite Gokou Ruri.

"I……"

He waved his hand to interrupt Gokou Ruri, and said arrogantly, "Come on, come and please me!"

Gogen Ruri: “…”

For some reason, she felt like she was on the same wavelength.

The battle begins!

"Wait, wait, Yuuki-kun, I need to explain something before you begin." Yukinoshita interrupted the impending battle: "This child is someone I chose, so theoretically it's like I'm playing against you, and you said something before..."

Yuuki raised an eyebrow, but instead of looking at her, she looked at Gokou Ruri: "Is what she said true?"

"Yes."

Gogen Ruri nodded.

Upon hearing her voice, Yuki Risa was clearly taken aback.
