When Cheng Youyue came back, there were only three people left at the bar.
"Baizhu didn't come back?" she asked curiously.
"The boss went to discuss business," Nicks said, "and he didn't let us follow him."
"Going to meet someone? Are you going to meet the Li family?"
Cheng Youyue had just come back from outside, and she deliberately changed the subject so that no one would inquire about her whereabouts, but suddenly thought of something, and looked at Nicks with a strange look on her face: "Did she go alone?"
Nicks nodded: "Yes."
"That's a second-generation ancestor who will definitely spend money on food, drinks, entertainment, and Lego." Cheng Youyue's expression became even weirder. "I haven't even asked yet. Bai Shu left the city just after she came to the city. Does she still have any money that she can use now?"
The expressions of the others all changed, and Nix suddenly stood up: "It's broken, I'll go deliver it now."
How could he forget this!
Bai Shu did not leave any identity information in the official payment system of Yicheng, so the payment items cannot be directly swiped by face or fingerprint. The bracelet she carries contains important information and is never connected to the cloud.
What's more, all the networks in the city are monitored by [Athena]. Even if the number is too large to be detected by everyone, this kind of sensitive information about arms design will still be scanned and entered as soon as possible.
Besides, Baizhu usually doesn’t need to pay in person. At most, he can enter a password on the intranet to mobilize large amounts of funds.
"Don't go. What's the big deal if you go now? They'll have finished eating by the time you get there! Isn't this a joke?"
Cheng You held his forehead for a while, feeling extremely headache:
"Besides, an arms dealer who almost monopolizes the arms trade in the outer city has no money. Do you think anyone will believe this? I told you that your boss should keep some considerable personal funds on hand. It is best to carry some funds with you. Card, she insisted on investing all in...
"Forget it, it's up to you and let her adapt to the situation."

"This thing tastes great."
In the revolving restaurant on the Agate River, Bai Zhu looked at the scattered dishes on the plate and the very large blank spaces, and finally spoke to the melodious music of the violin.
The bored young man opposite finally got a little interested. He raised his head and revealed his youthful, even handsome and aggressive eyebrows. His mid-length black hair was slightly curled at the end and lay on his shoulders. Hearing this, he said lazily:
"What does it feel like?"
Bai Shu said frankly: "It feels like being fooled."
Li Muye: "..."
This meal was really upsetting, and I haven’t gotten down to it yet.
Bai Shu finally couldn't bear it anymore, put down his knife and fork and sighed:
"It's so advanced. The scams here are more advanced than anything you can do."
A piece of meat as big as a finger, paired with some insignificant tomato chunks and various jams and salad dressings, it's just a dish on the plate, with a bunch of zeros after the price. In this time of war, it is a miracle that this restaurant did not close down.
Damn it, the most annoying thing about this kind of food is that it just relies on the price and environment to show off.
Might as well fill the plate and get a pair of chopsticks.
"It doesn't seem to taste good, and it's a bit boring." Li Muye put down the tableware and wiped his mouth with a napkin casually. "If you treat me to dinner, you might as well take me to bungee jumping in a racing car for something exciting."
"Since we haven't eaten well, let's first..."
Bai Zhu touched his pocket for a moment, then thought of something.
It’s bad, it seems she didn’t bring any money, and for the first time, she didn’t bring anyone with her.
This meal costs at least four figures.
In this era and environment, four figures are really expensive.
Li Muye didn't realize something was wrong, and he picked at the three-digit half tomato on the dinner plate without interest: "What first? Talk about business?"
"No, let's find something exciting to do first."
Bai Shu walked down the slope, took off his coat slowly, and put it on the back of the chair: "This restaurant has security guards, waiters who are ready, and good security facilities. For ordinary people, it is difficult for people to leave unnoticed. Get out, come in.”
Li Muye raised his eyes: "So?"
Bai Shu put his hands on the table and asked with interest: "Do you want to try to escape the bill?"
Li Muye had some doubts in his eyes.
"We are competing to see who can escape first without being discovered." Bai Shu lowered his voice and pretended, "But it would be very embarrassing to be caught if you play like this."
Li Muye threw away the smashed tomatoes on the plate, and was shaken by what he said: "Okay, what do you have to bet on?"
Bai Zhu wiped his hands with a tissue and said with a smile: "Two points of profit sharing."
That's a lot of money.
Li Muye snapped his fingers: "Deal."
When he saw Bai Shu was about to get up, he immediately took the lead and stood in a rather careless manner: "Then please excuse me, but there must be at least one person at the table, Boss Bai."
Bai Shu pursed his lips and smiled. Li Muye calmly walked past the waiter and even smiled at the lobby manager who was looking at him. No one noticed anything wrong.
This is the tenth floor of the top floor. If you want to go downstairs to drive, you need to be accompanied by a waiter unless you pay first, but this violates the principle of "escape from the bill".
Li Muye thought for a moment and walked to the bathroom openly, without windows or passages.
When he saw the waiter when he came out, Li Muye stretched out his hand to stop him: "Hello, there is a very delicious cod in this meal. Can you let me go into the kitchen and ask the chef who made it?"
Before the waiter spoke, he handed over a few full bills.
500 tip.
During the war, hourly wages dropped again and again. A tip of 500 points was already extremely expensive, and their salary was only 20 points a day!
"You come with me."
The waiter's attitude quickly changed and he politely led Li Muye into the back kitchen. He saw the open back door of the kitchen with sharp eyes.
Leading to the rooftop, there are some leisure seats, which should be a place for employees to rest.
As the weather gets colder, such an open-air place is no fun. The door is open because there are employees smoking outside, but the advantage is that there are direct stairs for the convenience of employees.
Li Muye raised his head, and just as he was about to slash the waiter with his knife, there was a sudden "bang" in the restaurant, like an explosion, and the fire alarm blared.
The waiter apologized hastily and hurried back to his post. The chef in the back kitchen also ran out to join in the fun, causing chaos for a while.
"Fire?" It couldn't be such a coincidence. Li Muye immediately understood, "Fuck, I'm going to lose."
He took advantage of the chaos and ran to the rooftop, where the straight staircase was in use.
The chef who was smoking didn't know why. Just when he said, "The employee area is not allowed to enter," he saw Li Muye poke his head towards the outside of the building and put out his hand neatly——
Jumped down!
This is the fucking tenth floor!
"Holy shit!" The chef quickly looked down and saw that Li Muye had jumped to the seventh floor using the air conditioner and was still jumping down lightly and steadily.
"What's going on? Is there a new version of extreme sports or rock climbing?!"
Li Muye jumped directly on the second floor. The glass door of the building opened a second before landing, and Bai Shu stepped out almost at the same time as him.
"Young Master Li," Bai Shu raised her eyebrows in surprise, but it was more of a tease. She glanced at the sky on the tenth floor and looked at the still dumbfounded chef on the rooftop, "Are you going to be a trapeze artist?"
