Zongman: My Smart Group

Congratulations, host, you have received 10 Sakura Coins.

Just then, a strong gust of wind blew by, and ten ten-thousand-yuan bills slammed onto Lin Mo's face with a loud thud.

Lin Mo stared blankly at the 10 Sakura Coins in his hand. Was he being insulted by money?

The system quickly explained, "Host, due to the influence of the anti-magic field, I cannot directly teleport to your pocket. This is the only way to send it."

The system would never admit that it did this on purpose because it couldn't stand Lin Mo.

Lin Mo cursed the system as trash again in his mind, then took out 3 Sakura Coins and stuffed them into Tsurumi Rumi's hand, saying, "Here, this is the treasure you dug up."

Then he tore open the bread packaging and started eating. He had been hungry for so long, and if he didn't eat soon, he would really starve to death here.

Rumi Tsurumi stared blankly at the money in her hand for a while before she reacted and said, "The money we found should be given to the police officer, otherwise the owner will be very sad."

Lin Mo took a sip of milk and said, "This is my money, how could there be an owner! Besides, even if you hand it over to the police, they won't return it to the owner, but will stuff it into their own pocket as extra money."

Rather than that, it's better to keep it for yourself; after all, it's better to keep the good stuff within the family. Or you could give 10,000 to the school, get praise from the teacher, give 10,000 to your parents, get praise from them, and keep the last 10,000 for yourself.

Tsurumi Rumi remained silent for a while, but finally stuffed the 3 Sakura Coins into her pocket. It wasn't that she wanted to do it the same way as Lin Mo, but she found that what Lin Mo said seemed to make a lot of sense. If she handed the money over to the police, it would be very difficult to find the owner.

But I can't go against my conscience to get praise from the school and my parents, so I'll just keep it for now, maybe I'll need it someday.

Seeing that Lin Mo had quickly finished his bread and milk, Tsurumi Rumi hurriedly asked, "Silly big brother, what's your name?"

Lin Mo put the trash into a plastic bag and said, "Since you treated me to dinner, I'll let it slide that you called me an idiot. I'm a person with extraordinary wisdom, so don't say such insulting things to my intelligence again!"

Rumi Tsurumi: "So, what's your name?"

Lin Mo: "My name is Lin Mo, just an ordinary person passing by. You better remember that!"

Rumi Tsurumi: "Okay, you idiot Lin Mo, I got it, you idiot Lin Mo."

System: "Pfft—Host, doesn't this scene seem familiar?"

Lin Mo rolled up his sleeves and said, "Hey! I have a short temper, Xiao Mei, don't think I won't beat you up just because you're treating me to dinner!"

Rumi Tsurumi puffed out her cheeks and said, "My name is Rumi Tsurumi! You can call me Tsurumi, or Rumi, not Rumi! You idiot Lin Mo!"

Lin Mo: "Xiao Mei! Xiao Mei! Xiao Mei! That's what I'll call you!"

Rumi Tsurumi: "Idiot Lin Mo! Idiot Lin Mo! Idiot Lin Mo!"

Lin Mo: "Xiao Mei!"

Rumi Tsurumi: "Idiot Lin Mo!"

The two stared directly into each other's eyes, their gazes flashing like lightning in the air, each trying to overwhelm the other with the sheer force of their gazes!

system:"……"

To be honest, she really didn't expect her host to argue with a child.

Just as their faces were getting closer and closer, about to touch, Lin Mo's stomach rumbled again.

"Goo-"

The food from earlier wasn't enough, and Lin Mo didn't know if it was because the system had optimized his body, but he felt that his appetite was several times greater than before.

"puff--"

Rumi Tsurumi clutched her stomach and sneered, "As expected of idiot Lin Mo, just like Lin Mo!"

Lin Mo was furious, his face flushed red. He hadn't expected his stomach to be so uncooperative. It had started growling again even though he had just eaten, especially during that serious scene. It was so embarrassing for him. He decided to leave the group!

Of course, no matter how angry Lin Mo was, he couldn't possibly hit Tsurumi Rumi. After all, he couldn't repay kindness with enmity.

He took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and said with a smile, "Heh~ Xiaomei, I'm an adult now, I won't argue with a child like you. I'm magnanimous, I forgive your offense. Now I have a business deal worth ten thousand yuan to discuss, goodbye!"

The most urgent thing is to fill our stomachs quickly. Luckily, I still have 7 Sakura Coins, which should be enough for this meal.

Watching Lin Mo turn and leave, Tsurumi Rumi didn't chase after him. After all, they were just strangers who had met by chance. She just murmured to herself, "What a strange person. Oh no, I have to hurry home, or my mother will worry about me!"

……

At a noodle shop hosting a competitive eating contest, Lin Mo, under the astonished gazes of everyone, ate his seventh bowl of ramen, finished the soup in one gulp, put down the bowl, and shouted loudly, "Boss! Another bowl, please!"

"My goodness! This is the seventh bowl already! It's completely broken the record!"

"Damn it! Why can't I have an invincible stomach?! Why?!"

"Is the title of 'Big Eater' going to change hands this time?"

"It's like a starving ghost reincarnated!"

The boss was also very happy. Although Lin Mo ate a lot of bowls of noodles, the cost of a bowl of noodles was not much. He could earn it back in a day. Moreover, he could attract more customers. Why not?

Owner: "Guest, here's your ramen!"

System: "Sigh~ Host, you already have money, why do you still want to participate in the eating contest?"

While eating his ramen, Lin Mo thought to himself, "System, you don't know the value of money until you're in charge. 7 Sakura Coins seems like a lot, but it's not even enough for one meal. Instead of spending it all on a single meal, I'd rather pay a small registration fee and eat my fill!"

The system exclaimed, "The host is truly clever!"

Lin Mo: "Of course, I already said I'm incredibly clever! By the way, what's with my huge appetite?"

System: "As you know, host, I have optimized your body, so it's inevitable that you have a big appetite. It's just that the energy from food is used to maintain the basic functioning of your body's natural abilities."

Lin Mo's eyes lit up as he said, "So, you're saying I'm getting stronger all the time?"

The system said somewhat awkwardly, "That's how it was at first, but as you know, the anti-magic field will nullify unconventional things, so you ate so much only to maintain the basic functioning of your body's talents and prevent them from being negated by the anti-magic field."

Lin Mo rolled her eyes and focused on eating.

Like I said before, this system is garbage, I'm leaving the group.

Chapter 5 Rescuing the Puppy Hachiman Hikigaya

After eating eight bowls, Lin Mo was finally full and received a cash reward of 10 Sakura Coins.

Holding the competitive eating trophy in one hand and a lollipop in the other, Lin Mo said contentedly, "As expected, there are still many good people in the world. I not only ate my fill but also won a prize. I'll definitely come again next time!"

System: "Eating contests aren't always happening, host, you should try a different approach."

Lin Mo pursed his lips, clearly understanding the principle. After spending some time getting home, Lin Mo reached into his pocket, just about to pick up his phone to watch some videos, but found nothing.

Lin Mo: "System, where's my phone?"

System: "No, the host only brought the clothes you're wearing. Nothing else was brought with you. Even the clothes you're wearing were generated by me."

Lin Mo: "Damn it, what about my phone in this world?"

System: "Host, as you know, that's just a background element."

Lin Mo gave it the middle finger: "Useless system! Do you not even have identification?"

System: "Don't worry, the most basic stuff is still there, it's in the drawer of your bedroom desk."

Lin Mo opened the drawer and took out a few certificates inside; the rest was empty. He picked up his ID, went out and bought a cell phone and got a SIM card. This whole process cost him over 100,000 yuan.

Lin Mo fiddled with his new phone, sighed, and said, "Sure enough, money is hard to earn, and life is tough."

System: "Hey! You talk like you've eaten it yourself."

Lin Mo: "Get lost! This useless system has nothing, and it's even suppressed by its own things. It's like it doesn't exist at all. What's the use of having you?"

System: "That's not right, host. Once my energy is restored, you'll have whatever you want."

Lin Mo: "That's right, let's stop chatting and go to sleep!"

System: "Host, you've slept almost all day, are you still going to sleep?"

Lin Mo: "What do you know! I'm just jet-lagged."

System: "6".

Actually, Lin Mo wasn't really sleepy. It's just that he had just bought the phone, didn't have any games, and had lost all his accounts. He was too lazy to fix them now. What else was he going to do but sleep?

The next morning, Lin Mo was woken up early by the system's alarm clock: "Host! Host! Wake up! You're going to be late for school!"

Lin Mo suddenly sat up in his sleep, and while getting dressed, he said, "Damn it, these unfilial sons, they didn't wake me up for work at 8 am!"

After getting dressed, Lin Mo realized that he had transmigrated. What was the point of going to school?!

Lin Mo cursed, "Useless system! I've already transmigrated, why should I go to school? It's a waste of my feelings. Go back to sleep!"

System: "Host, so you didn't listen to anything I said yesterday? Your current identity in this world is a high school student. Today is the first day of school, and if you sign in at school, there's a high chance you'll get some good stuff!"

Lin Mo clapped his hands and shouted, "Going to school makes me happy! I love going to school!"

Lin Mo quickly packed up and set off. After walking for a while, he suddenly stopped and said, "System, where is my school again? I don't know the way."

System: "Wait a minute, let me check the map. You've taken the wrong road. Turn around now and turn left at the second intersection."

And so, under the system's guidance, Lin Mo finally found the right path.

Everyone around was wearing the school uniform of Zongwu High School, but Lin Mo was dressed in casual clothes, which made him stand out. However, no one around him bothered him and just assumed that he was an unemployed bum.

Lin Mo: "Speaking of which, system, did you swallow one of my clothes? Where's my school uniform? You know, this is the only set of clothes I have right now."

System: "If you had just looked through your wardrobe, you wouldn't have asked such a stupid question. Your school uniform is right there in the wardrobe."

Lin Mo: "How dare you! You knew all this but didn't report it. What were you up to?!"

System: "After passing through, check the room first and familiarize yourself with your future accommodation. Isn't that common sense?"

Lin Mo: "Where did you hear that common sense? I didn't check the room, and I still slept soundly!"

The system said wearily, "Whatever makes you happy."

At this moment, the system prompt sounded suddenly:

"bite--

Sign-in task: Save the puppy that is about to be hit by a car, Hachiman Hikigaya.

Task Reward: One sign-in.

Lin Mo: "What the hell is this mission? Where am I supposed to rescue a little dog named Hachiman Hikigaya?"

System: "I was just asking if there's a possibility that you'd have to save the puppy and Hachiman Hikigaya. No time to say more, I've already marked the task amount for you, here we go!"

"Sabre!"

A small dog ran happily through the crowd, breathing in the free air, completely unaware of the car approaching. Even though the driver braked suddenly, it was too late, and a collision was imminent.

In this extremely urgent moment, Lin Mo made his move, kicking away Hachiman Hikigaya who was trying to rush over. He held his breath and the world seemed to slow down at that moment, because his talent was working!

Lin Mo inadvertently discovered a skill: as long as he concentrated, he could activate a three-second overclocking mode! Within those three seconds, he was practically a superman!

Lin Mo rushed over with lightning speed, delivering a Leo Flying Kick that sent the little dog named Sabre flying.

Watching the car slowly approaching him, Lin Mo smiled contemptuously, preparing to use the hood to perform a graceful somersault.

but!

Lin Mo's hand landed awkwardly on the car emblem. After being severely stung, Lin Mo instinctively withdrew his hand and was sent flying by the impact.

Hikigaya Hachiman stood up with a pain in his face. He had come to school an hour early, ready to experience the wonderful high school life and perhaps have a different development than in junior high.

When he saw the dog almost get hit, he was about to rush over to save it, but he didn't expect to be ambushed. The person who ambushed him is now lying not far in front of him.

Hachiman Hikigaya went over. Although the other person had kicked him, in a way, it actually saved his life. After all, if it weren't for that kick, he would probably be the one lying on the ground.

Hachiman Hikigaya: "Are you alright?"

Lin Mo raised his head, tremblingly gave a thumbs up, and revealed a strong smile, as if to say that this injury was nothing at all, and then he fainted on the ground the next second.

System: "My goodness, host!!! Don't die!!!"

What happened here quickly attracted the attention of those around. After all, it's human nature to watch a spectacle, and everyone whispered and discussed the luxury car hitting the person.

Hikigaya Hachiman, who was in the center of attention, instinctively wanted to escape. He couldn't stand being watched by so many people, but his kind heart made him choose to stay.

After all, in a way, Lin Mo, who was lying on the ground in front of him, was his savior.

Inside the car, Yukino Yukinoshita stared in horror at the scene before her, her heart filled with panic and unease, her mind blank, and she didn't even have the courage to get out.

Yukino Yukinoshita said, "Yukino, just stay in the car and don't go anywhere. Leave this to me."

Yukino Yukinoshita looked at Haruno Yukinoshita and murmured softly, "Sister..."

Yukino smiled slightly, opened the car door, and got out.
