Chapter 166: What kind of person was Sha Jin?
"I also need to know who she is. If my good luck is genuine, she will definitely become an important pawn. And the more 'friends' who can help me in this matter, the better."
At this point, Sand Gold's tone gradually turned somber. Not everything was under his control; for example... who exactly was the murderer?
"But to be honest, the murder is most likely unrelated to her. I still hold the same view: there must be a problem within the family. Otherwise, why would our Mr. Sunday arrange a private meeting? This wasn't an interrogation, but a secret negotiation."
"Watch, with the robin's death as my bargaining chip, I will win back my freedom and power. In the end, I will overturn this beautiful dream and create the grandest death."
"Dreaming of the future? The grandest death ever! What exactly does the company want to do?!" Sunday in the Collapsed Starry Sky Railway World.
"If stepping through this door guarantees a triumphant return, even if the probability is infinitesimally close to zero, I have no reason to worry, do I?"
"This madness! Indeed, the difference between a genius and a madman is sometimes just a thought away!" Genius on the left, madman on the right, world, Gao Ming.
"Hmph! What makes you think you can win, you damn gambler?"
Ladio gave a soft snort and questioned.
"Three chips are enough."
Sand Gold slowly closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, an indescribable confidence emanated from him!
At that moment, it seemed there was nothing in the world he couldn't do!
"All or nothing."
"So handsome~ and so confident! He's simply a sunny and cheerful heartthrob!" (From the Hundred Demon Records world, Tao Yao)
"Beautiful lady, I'm confident too!" Zhao Xin, from the world of Super God Academy.
"Pah! Puxin Nan!" Tao Yao, from the Hundred Demon Records world.
"Pfft! I'm dying of laughter!" Your Majesty, have mercy on me, Lü Xiaoyu.
"It's hitting the theme! And the atmosphere has already been built up to this point, so the climax should be coming soon!" (Battle Through the Heavens world, Xiao Yan)
"Ah! How frustrating! I've been watching the story unfold from Sand Gold's perspective all along! I've witnessed step by step how Sand Gold came to Pinocchio, going from knowing nothing to gradually realizing his plan." Xia Ling, from the Soul Street world.
"But! Sand Gold is such a good liar, every word he says is so convincing! I can't tell which words are true and which are false!" Xia Ling, from the world of Soul Town Street.
"Perhaps this is the unique charm of gold dust!" Kaguya-sama: Love Is War, Kaguya Shinomiya.
"Um, am I the only one curious about what the three chips Sand Gold mentioned are?" Zhang Chulan from Under One Person World.
"Brother, you're a decent guy!" —Anonymous, from the world of 100,000 Cold Jokes.
[With the aura of the gold dust fully unleashed, Ladio appropriately made way.]
The two walked up the steps together, and the door opened automatically, revealing a spacious and bright conference room.
In the center is a negotiation table, with a few exquisite chairs suggesting that this is not a place for just anyone to sit.
Two enormous bookshelves were embedded in the walls on either side of the room, densely packed with all sorts of books.
"Emm, actually, I've had this question since I watched TV a long time ago: are the books on these bookshelves really meant for people to read?" - Liu Xing from Home with Kids World.
However, at this point, even exquisite furniture could no longer attract attention.
At the far end of the room, a tall, imposing man stood motionless, as if he had been waiting for a long time.
The man faced an ancient and profound mural. He was lost in thought, as if the mysteries of the universe were emerging from the mural before him.
Hearing the sound of the two men entering, the man didn't turn around, but simply spoke calmly.
"It seems the riddle I set for you was too easy, company envoy."
"Thank you for your kind words, and thank you for going to so much trouble to welcome me, Mr. Sunday. But this really doesn't seem like something someone who sincerely invites someone would do."
Sand Gold approached Sunday from behind, smiling broadly, though his words were laced with sarcasm, subtly mocking Sunday's petty tricks.
"So this isn't an invitation, it's a summons. Before we begin, I need to test your character."
[On Sunday, a single sentence deftly defused the irony surrounding gold dust, while also subtly belittling it.]
"I bet your knowledgeable friend has been a great help, hasn't he?"
At this moment, Ladio looked at the titles of various books on the bookshelf beside him; this was far more interesting than listening to two idiots arguing.
"Alright, alright, so you're putting on airs and refusing to turn around on Sunday, huh! Sand Gold, go!" Yuanlong World, Gao Yao.
"Oh? Does this friend have any good ideas for me to learn?" Collapsed Starry Sky Railway World, Sand Gold.
"Hehe~ For example: Sunday, don't look back, I'm a robin..." Yuanlong World, Gao Yao.
"Or: On Sunday, you wouldn't want others to know that the robin has lost its voice, would you?" Yuanlong World, Gao Yao.
"Defying the Heavens!" In the world of Battle Through the Heavens, Xiao Yan.
"Outrageous!" Zhang Chulan from Under One Person World.
"Invincible!" - Anonymous, from the world of 100,000 Cold Jokes.
"Oh? Little Yanzi, you can understand?" Yao Lao from the Doupo Cangqiong world.
"I...I freaking don't understand! Ugh! Why do I have to know this! Why!" In the world of Battle Through the Heavens, Xiao Yan was on the verge of tears. He wished he could have a brain like the one he had before he surfed the internet!
This thing is like DNA! You can't forget it!
"Of course, you should know this better than I do—he has faithfully fulfilled his duties, hasn't he?"
[The gold dust spoke with a pointed remark.]
"Yes, the professor vouched for your noble character. He said you two are equally upright and trustworthy members of the family."
"Hmm? Why does Sunday's voice sound a little different than before? Did the game change its voice actor?" Honkai Impact 3rd Railway World, Silver Wolf.
"Good heavens, redefining 'integrity'!" —Anonymous, from the world of 100,000 Cold Jokes.
"Hiss~ I feel like there's really nothing wrong with what he said, but the fact that it's not wrong seems to be the biggest problem!" Zhang Chulan from Under One Person World.
"Pfft~ Just thinking about Ladio telling Sunday with a serious face makes me want to laugh." Your Majesty, have mercy on me, Lu Xiaoyu.
Chapter 167 What is the cornerstone?
"I now know you very well, Mr. Sandstone. Your diligence, generosity, and cooperativeness, along with your ability to overcome numerous obstacles to reach me, give me reason to believe in your wisdom and courage."
Although his words were complimentary, Sunday's tone was cold. As he spoke, he slowly turned around, staring at Sand Gold, a knowing smile playing on his lips.
"But there is one thing I must ask you: you have misused your intelligence, leading you to meet with the wrong people, appear in the wrong places... and witness a tragedy that should never have happened."
As soon as he finished speaking, Sunday's expression turned completely somber.
"You don't look too good. Just to confirm, is it me who's making you anxious?"
[Sajin chuckled lightly. It's normal to be in a bad mood on Sundays, and this was within his expectations, only it was a bit more troublesome than he had imagined.]
【It’s not a big problem.】
"...If not, then I'm on your side."
"If I understand correctly, your words... make extremely serious accusations against the 'family'."
"You've understood correctly, because evil is quietly growing around you."
[Sajin openly admitted that he wanted to tell Sunday once again that there was a traitor in the family! He was deliberately provoking the other party.]
"Let's not beat around the bush and talk about your sister. Her talent is unparalleled in the entertainment industry, but as you know, her voice has been somewhat 'dissonant' since she returned to Pinocchio."
"What's even more terrifying is that she can no longer sing. Who did it? People think the killer is among the outsiders, but I know... you have a different answer in your heart."
Just as Sand Gold had said before, he wanted to use the death of the robin to open up a breakthrough!
"Holy crap, he's using his ultimate right in front of me!" My senior brother's brain is messed up, Dongfang Xianyun.
"Ah~ They're already dead. What are they even saying? I feel like I can understand them and yet I can't!" Xia Ling, in the world of Zhenhun Street.
"Understand? (Manual doge emoji)" Shen Qingqiu in the world of the Scum Villain's Self-Saving System.
Looking at Sunday's expressionless face, Sand Gold was confident that the other party was definitely not as calm as he appeared.
Whether it's anger, hatred, or impulsiveness... all of these can become a fatal weakness!
"Now, your noble status has become a shackle, preventing you from apprehending the murderer and avenging your sister. Your isolation and helplessness are what cause your anxiety and distress."
[Then, Sand Gold changed the subject, placing his right hand on his heart and speaking sincerely.]
"But don't worry, I'm on your side."
After hearing what Sand Gold said on Sunday, a smile once again appeared on his lips, but it carried a subtle hint of mockery and disdain.
"Mr. Sand Gold, it is my greatest honor that you are so considerate of me—a selfless and generous person like you surely wouldn't ask for anything in return, would you?"
"Wow~ It feels like Sand Gold's attitude suddenly became much tougher!" Eros Chocolate World, Metata.
"Hiss~ Is this the start of moral blackmail on Sunday?" Today, Qin Ze begins his journey in the world of celebrities.
"Hilarious, utterly immoral!" — Kayalgo, the Reboot Warlock.
"Ladio's just looking at the book title? Why doesn't he come and join in!" My senior brother's brain is messed up, Dongfang Xianyun.
"No way, friend, I'm really afraid the professor will throw chalk at my head." Collapsed Starry Sky Railway World, Gold Dust.
"At least you have some self-awareness." — Doctor Truth, Honkai Impact 3rd.
"Hehe~ Who could refuse a boy who rivets chicken wings~" Honkai Impact 3rd Railway World, Fireworks.
"Of course, you won't lose anything from this. I just want to get back what's rightfully mine: my personal freedom, and my personal belongings kept by the family—that bag of cash, and..."
"A box containing [the foundation stone]."
[Sajin spoke matter-of-factly, only to be ruthlessly interrupted by Sunday.]
【“Yes.”】
The existence of the foundation stone had already been exposed, so the gold dust wasn't surprising. What truly concerned him was how much had been exposed...
[The Cornerstones—I've heard they are all valuable assets of the Strategic Investment Department, sacred stones that hold immense power under the [Protection] Order, with each of the ten liquidation experts (the Stone Hearts) holding one.]
"...Such a valuable item is probably more expensive than any other reward."
"What the hell! What kind of robber mentality is this! You stole my things and now you want me to do you a favor to get them back! You better pray you never turn your back on Master Xin in your life!" Super God Academy world, Zhao Xin.
"What exactly is '[Foundation Stone]'? Holy crap! No wonder he's an administrator! He can't even @ me!" - Anonymous from the world of 100,000 Cold Jokes.
"Xiao Ming? Administrator? You're here to be a top commentator!" (From the world of 100,000 Cold Jokes, by an anonymous author.)
"Hey! What are you calling me, admin! I'm right here, Sand Gold! @Honkai Impact 3rd Railway World, Sand Gold." Fox Spirit Matchmaker World, Bai Yuechu.
"Brother Sand Gold! Could you please explain? Also, Sand Gold Master! Does your world have anything like a time machine? I don't want to stay in this lousy world for even a second longer!" — Bai Yuechu, Fox Spirit Matchmaker World.
Ever since he fainted last time, those two fox spirits from Tushan have been using all sorts of methods to make him unconscious! Damn it! If he weren't outmatched, Bai Yuechu would have already robbed Yaoxinzhai and run away!
"Haha, easy, easy. The cornerstone, as mentioned before, is something like a buff. Administrator 'Xiao Ming' has already explained the concept of the Star God." Collapsed Starry Sky Railway World, Gold Sand.
"If we consider the actions of mortals who receive the star god's inspiration and grasp the power of destiny as stirring up a shattered droplet." Collapsed Starry Sky Railway World, Sand Gold.
"Then the magnificent feat of the 'Star God' driving the course of destiny with overwhelming power is like a tsunami propelling across mountains." Collapsed Starry Sky Railway World, Sand Gold.
"Between this vast expanse, a few mortals favored by the Star Gods can draw upon the energy of their destiny, as promised by the Star Gods, to unleash colossal waves that erode the coastlines. These beings are known as 'Commanders.'" Collapsed Starry Sky Railway World, Gold Dust.
"Although they are not entirely under the command of the Star God, in the eyes of the world, the messengers are the apostles who represent the Star God's will." Collapsed Starry Sky Railway World, Sand Gold.
"And the [Foundation Stone], also known as 'Kripper's Holy Body', is a sacred stone that seals the power of the 'Guardian' Envoy. With the Foundation Stone, I can even exert a portion of the Envoy's power." Collapsed Starry Sky Railway World, Sand Gold.
As the gold dust explained, the understanding of the Collapsed Starry Sky Railway world across the myriad realms deepened once again, causing quite a stir in many worlds!
Chapter 168 Gold Sand: It's over! Barbie Q is dead! It's over!
"But as you know, a certain degree of risk is necessary to get to the bottom of this."
[Sajin explained slowly and methodically, but Sunday didn't continue the conversation. Instead, he said something that left everyone puzzled.]
"Mr. Sand Gold, when you're out and about, do you always pay attention to your appearance? Your tie should be in the center, your shirt should not be showing from your waistcoat, your trousers must be perfectly straight, and always aligned with the direction your shoes are pointing."
"Of course."
[The sand gold conformed to the Dao, and at the same time, he began to ponder what kind of approach the other party was taking.]
"But I won't, because that's not 'proper'—you should make sure everything is in order and perfectly on track before you leave the house."
"Damn! He's so infuriating! This is blatant entrapment!" Xia Ling, in the world of Zhenhun Street.
"Something's not right. Or is this what 'harmony encompasses everything' means?" Genshin Impact, Elhesen.
