"You two did well today. Here's your pay."

  Pinocchio raised his wooden arm, and a few Ghost Currency s fell into the hands of Qin Nuo and Liu Jiaqi.

  "Additionally, 3697 is still the best employee among all the staff today. Here's your extra reward!"

  With that, a badge appeared in Qin Nuo's hand.

  A skull-shaped badge.

  "Wearing this badge grants you some privileges, like access to the sed floor of the restaurant and the right to interfere i..."

  After speaking, Pinocchio turned a.

  Qin Nuo noticed that as he held the badge, the surrounding ghost employees cast greedy gnces his way.

  "This is a good thing," Qin Nuo said with a smile as he put it away.

  "Qin Nuo, about what Wang Yang said..." Liu Jiaqi looked at Qin Nuo with some fear.

  Could it be that Qin Nuo iionally framed Wang Yang?

  Qin Nuo said nothing, walked to the table, dipped his finger into the leftover soup, and activated the Eye of Analysis.

  After a moment, he wiped his finger with a napkin and said, "I told him to add cooking wine, and there was absolutely no problem with that."

  "But it had to be cooking wine made from white liquor, not yellow beer."

  Though both are cooking wines, yellow beer has a lower purity and overpowers the inal aroma and taste of the soup.

  Perhaps Wang Yang was being cheap, thinking all cooking wines were the same.

  But this little detail cost him his life!

  Qin Nuo had said it had to be white liquor, and Wang Yang didn't take it to heart, so he couldn't bme Qin Nuo.

  Liu Jiaqi felt very flicted after hearing the analysis.

  After all, they were cssmates, and watg him being taken away by ghosts was a heavy blow, no matter how you looked at it.

  "Instead of w about Wang Yang, you'd better worry about whether you'll survive tomorrow."

  "I'm going to buy something to eat. Are you ing?"

  Seeing Liu Jiaqi's absent-minded look, Qin Nuo didn't say mud turo leave.

  "Wait for me."

  In the hallway, Qin Nuo ordered a bowl of snail noodles for 30 Ghost Currend ied a 100-value Ghost Currenote.

  Soon, the vending mae shook.

  The snail noodles dropped out.

  As for the ge, only 20 Ghost Currency was returned.

  As expected, it swallowed 50 Ghost Currency again!

  But this time, Qin Nuo didn't silently accept his bad luck. With a bnk expression, he said, "The t is off."

  "Stop talking nonsense. If you keep it up, I'll take back even this box of noodles!"

  The vending mae ghost's hoarse voice came out.

  Qin Nuo said nothing, hanging the badge on his chest.

  "What, you think this thing scare me?" the vending mae ghost sneered.

  "I'm not pnning to scare you with this; this is more practical!"

  Qin Nuo took out the Bone-Crushing Hammer and swung it at the vending mae's gss.

  Instantly, the gss shattered!

  Liu Jiaqi, who had caught up, covered her mouth in shock at the se.

  Was Qin Nuo really going to fight the vending mae ghost?

  "You want to die!!"

  The vending mae ghost was furious, its ghostly face twisting, and a row of sharp teeth grew from its bloody mouth, as if it would swallow Qin Nuo in the sed.

  "Demon's Eye: You gained +3 Rage Meter from the vending mae ghost and obtaihe Murderous Butcher's saw!"

  "A saw? This is great!"

  Qin Nuo's face lit up with joy.

  Over there, the vending mae ghost was about to sh out, but Qin Nuo kicked it hard back against the wall.

  "Is this Ghost Power?"

  The vending mae ghost was shocked. This rat actually had Ghost Power!

  Then, even more unbelievably, Qin Nuo pulled out a saw covered in dried blood from who knows where.

  With a few strong pulls of the cord, the saw roared to life, and a heavy st of blood filled the air.

  From Liu Jiaqi's perspective, a sense of fear arose, as if it were an illusion. At this moment, Qin Nuo seemed like a deranged killer in a raincoat, wielding a saw on a rainy night.

  The vending mae ghost sehe saw's peculiarity and suddenly realized it was a Ghost Creature!

  Before it could react, Qin Nuo on it.

  The saw bde tore through the vending mae's surface, and instead of sparks, thick, sticky bck blood oozed out.

  The vending mae ghost was both shocked and terrified, but mostly furious.

  Was it really being oppressed by a mere rat?

  A pair of bloody hands reached out from behind the vending mae, trying to tear Qin Nuo apart.

  But in the sed, they recoiled as if electrocuted!

  The restaurant's rules stated that as long as employees worked diligently and pleted their tasks, ghosts couldn't harm them.

  Moreover, besides the work uniform, Qin Nuo had the Best Employee badge hanging on his chest!

  The vending mae ghost couldn't harm Qin Nuo no matter what.

  And Qin Nuo, as if transformed into a dedicated lumberjack, ignored everything else and swung the saw with all his might.

  As the saw roared, pieces fell to the ground, and bck blood had already flooded the floor.

  The vending mae ghost finally realized Qin Nuo's ruthlessness and quickly spoke up, "Wait! Stop, I'll give you your ge, every st !"

  Two Ghost Currenotes popped out.

  "What about yesterday's?"

  "I'll return all of yesterday's too!"

  "And my friend's?"

  "Here, I'll give it all back to you!"

  The vending mae ghost pletely gave in.

  Only then did Qin Nuo stop his as, pulling out the saw, and the flowing bck blood ceased.

  Pig up the stack of Ghost Currency, Qin Nuo ted it and then looked up with a smile, "The t is off, isn't it?"

  "How could it be? I ted very carefully."

  Qin Nuo casually said, "I just gave you a 1000-value Ghost Currenote."

  "Nonsense, you gave me a 100!" the vending mae ghost retorted angrily.

  "You remembered wrong."

  Qin Nuo picked up the saw again, pulling the cord.

  The sound of the saw struck deep into the vending mae ghost's soul.

  Faced with Qin Nuo's shameless extortion, the vending mae ghost was furious to the extreme.

  Suppressing its overwhelming ahe vending mae ghost eventually ceded, gritting its teeth, "I remembered wrong. A thousand, I'll give it to you!"

  Soon, a thick stack of Ghost Currency appeared in Qin Nuo's haly 970 Ghost Currency.

  "See, I'm a reasonable person. Someone who doesn't know might think I'm ext you," Qin Nuo said with a smile.

  Vending mae ghost: "..."

  If it were human, it might have already been spitting blood from anger.

  "In the few days, don't get the t wrong. I'm not good at math, so I might get it wrong too!" Qin Nuo put away the saw and said to the already battered vending mae.

  Qin Nuo gestured to Liu Jiaqi, who stepped forward and timidly said, "I'd like a cy pot rice."

  The vending mae made no sound, as if it were broken.

  Qin Nuo took out the hammer, weighing it in his hand, and immediately a cy pot rice, along with a drink and utensils, popped out of the vending mae.

  Though it said nothing, the vending mae had made its stance clear.

  It had admitted defeat!

  Qin Nuo left with Liu Jiaqi, and ohey returo the dormitory, she finally let out a long sigh of relief, feeling a lingering fear.

  "That was so dangerous just now. That was a ghost. Aren't you afraid of its revenge?" Liu Jiaqi excimed.

  Sg a ghost was ohing, but actually ext it was another.

  Qin Nuo's as had truly left Liu Jiaqi stunned!

  "So what if it's a ghost?"

  "These things are just like people, they bully the weak ahe strong. The more you cower, the more arrogant they bee."

  "What if it fights you to the death?"

  "Then I'll just disma!" Qin Nued.
