My Right Hand Allows Me to Merge Thousands of Races-Chapter 141 - 109: Prize Quiz? You Cheated, Didn’t You?

Chapter 141: Chapter 109: Prize Quiz? You Cheated, Didn’t You?

Xie Manyu awoke from sleep, woken by a sudden urge.

Bleary-eyed, she picked up the communication device from the bedside and glanced at the time; it was almost dawn.

She stumbled out of bed, put on her slippers, and went to the bathroom.

"Brother should be back by now, right?" she muttered as she walked to her brother’s bedroom door, which was slightly ajar, and peeked inside.

The bed was empty.

"Didn’t he say he’d be off work by ten thirty? Where did that rascal Xiao Lu run off to again?" Xie Manyu placed her hands on her hips, puffing out her cheeks in annoyance.

"The bed’s not made, the sheets are a mess, books scattered everywhere, slippers here and there, dirty clothes just thrown on the floor... Oh, heavens!"

She surveyed the chaotic state of Lu Xun’s room, utterly astounded.

As the saying goes, behind a successful man... there’s surely another side of failure?

What a messy brother!

Xie Manyu showed a very displeased expression on her face.

She frowned slightly, thought for a moment, then walked into the bedroom and tidied up Lu Xun’s chaotic quarters, making it somewhat presentable.

She looked down at the dirty clothes on the floor.

She bent down to gather them up, turned around, and unzipped the wardrobe with a "whoosh."

"Eh? What’s this? It’s huge, is it a doll?"

Looking inside, Xie Manyu was a bit surprised.

A very tall "dummy" was positioned inside the wardrobe, facing inward, back outward, head lowered, covered by a dark cloak, obscuring everything beneath.

"Silly Xiao Lu, why would you put such a big doll in the wardrobe? It’s taking up too much space, dummy."

She reached out to tug at the cloak, but it wouldn’t budge.

She used a bit more force, and the dummy toppled over with a clattering sound, revealing a white skeletal frame and a wild boar skull with long tusks.

Xie Manyu was stunned for two seconds, her expression gradually falling apart as the color drained from her face visibly.

"Ah—"

Her slow response time made her scream only then.

Frightened, she stumbled backward, leaning against the wall, trembling as her chest heaved violently.

After a few seconds, she realized the skeleton wasn’t moving and calmed down.

After soothing her startled heart, her anger flared up.

How could her brother bring such a skeleton model to the bedroom?

Hidden in the wardrobe?

Equipped with toy rifles and model light sabers?

And jetpacks?

Being such a grown-up yet playing with such funky toys, so childish!

Why not spend that money on some new clothes for yourself?

"Ugh, can’t understand boys..."

She sighed, squatted down, and used all her might to put the Grand Commander Zhu Tutu back into the wardrobe.

To be honest, this skeleton model is quite sturdy; falling so heavily and not falling apart.

"Smelly brother, I swear never to clean your room again, damn it, scared me to death."

Xie Manyu stuffed a bunch of clothes into the wardrobe, then zipped it shut with a "whoosh."

She clapped her hands and went out, returning to her room to continue sleeping.

Clattering~

The Grand Commander Zhu Tutu huddled in the wardrobe, shivering, with bones trembling nonstop.

So... close!

It scared it to death.

Almost got discovered by this human child, lucky to play dead and fool through it.

While sharing a room with Lord Bone King is an immense honor, this task is really too challenging!

.

Next day, early morning, 6 AM.

Lu Xun called Xie Manyu and went out together to the morning market for groceries.

"Did you mess with my wardrobe last night?" On the way, he coughed and asked, "You didn’t get scared, did you?"

"You’re talking! I was almost scared out of my wits!" Xie Manyu rolled her eyes, "You’re so messy, your room’s such a mess, why don’t you clean it up? I’ve taken photos as evidence. You better make me some delicious food, or I’ll send the pictures of your pigsty to Mom and let her nag you hard."

...My Grand Commander Zhu Tutu was almost scared to death by you too.

I’m busy day in and day out, balancing school and work, and still hunting vampires. Thoughtfully arranged for a Special High Level bodyguard at home, and yet my silly sister not only fails to understand my good intentions but even threatens me with photos of my pigsty?

Lu Xun complained inwardly.

Who gets this, dear family?

"Eat, eat, eat, all you know is eating." He flicked Xie Manyu’s forehead harshly, "You better finish it, or I’ll make you take it to school!"

"No worries, I can finish it." She proudly patted her chest and said, "When it comes to eating, I’m pretty good at it."

"..."

Lu Xun suddenly felt she might be more suited for projecting Slime.

"Gluttony" is truly underserved tagging along with me.

**************

Dozens of vampire spies were killed, and Jinghai City returned to its usual peace, with no more mysterious disappearances.

Lu Xun felt utterly relieved.

Go to school in the morning, come home for lunch;

Return to school in the afternoon, come home again for dinner, and then go to work to earn Trait Points.

However, upon reaching the Treasure Pavilion, Sister Ding shared one piece of good news and one piece of bad news.

The bad news was that he wouldn’t be working today, as it’s a day off...

Because two thousand five hundred pieces of relics were all appraised in one night by Lu Xun, completing a three-month workload ahead of schedule.

The branch’s warehouse was cleared out.

He was too capable, leaving Ding Xuezhu very shocked.

Upon hearing he wouldn’t work today, Lu Xun was suddenly anxious, feeling uncomfortably restless.

This stable avenue for earning abundant Trait Points... seems not so stable after all.

Thankfully, the news was not entirely bad.

Because Sister Ding already reported the situation; the headquarters, upon learning about this reliable underage male, an exceptional worker, was very invigorated, deciding to transfer several batches of unappraised relics from the branch in the neighboring city, which are estimated to number tens of thousands, arriving in Jinghai tomorrow.
