This is too hilarious!

38. One positive and one negative, rational and stable!

"So that's how it is. As long as you go insane before being affected by ghost stories, losing all your sanity, and succumbing to madness, you can effectively avoid the effects of ghost stories on you?"

Bai Hui's expression was calm, as if he were deep in thought.

"You're not thinking of copying him, are you?!"

Feng Jue said coldly, "I advise you not to!"

"Why?" Bai Hui asked, puzzled.

"What could possibly be wrong? That's insane!"

"Too……"

Bai Hui nodded slightly. Just then, he passed a convenience store. An idea came to him. He told the others to wait for him while he went in to buy something.

Putting everything else aside, although he had just successfully obtained two hundred yuan from that strange tale's parent, it didn't help Bai Hui much in his current situation.

He still needs to find a way to make money.

Li Youye is usually half-mad and unreliable; as for Feng Jue's family situation... let's not even mention it.

He Qing often works part-time and supports herself, making her far more mature than her peers. In fact, she doesn't have many friends because her peers think she's too materialistic. At this age, such a person is indeed very easy to be looked down upon by classmates.

However, Bai Hui didn't care. He had the mindset of an 'adult' and didn't think there was anything wrong with He Qing's behavior of seizing almost every opportunity to climb up the ladder.

Li Youye didn't care; this guy's mental state was far beyond that of his peers.

As for Feng Jue... his family background meant he couldn't possibly view He Qing with prejudice. His only worry was whether his parents would suspect he was in a relationship because girls were approaching him...

In short, the group of people who have gathered together now each have their own agendas.

Before long, Bai Hui had bought what he needed—he already had some ideas, and after encountering the Strange Tales Parent and successfully obtaining two hundred yuan from him, Bai Hui's idea had fully matured... If nothing unexpected happens, this will be one of his main ways of making money for the foreseeable future!

It must have been tough on Bai Hui, as the society of this world was far too dangerous for him. He would frequently encounter strange tales, and there were even so-called "disaster beasts" that he had never met before!

Earning money outside of school is almost out of the question for now.

Within the school... the feasibility is limited.

But that didn't stump Bai Hui.

After all, I've been there!

He Qing looked at the bag emitting cold air in Bai Hui's hand with a puzzled expression and asked, "Bai Hui, why did you buy so many ice cups?"

Yes, what Bai Hui bought from the convenience store was an "ice cup," which is one of those sealed plastic cups filled with a lot of ice.

In Bai Hui's "memories of his past life", this thing was often used by people to mix their own drinks.

"It works! I plan to use this to make money!"

"Make money?" He Qing asked, both curious and puzzled. "How can you make money like this? If you're really short of money, I should be able to take you to do some part-time work after self-study tomorrow night."

"Why aren't we going up tonight?" Bai Hui asked, puzzled.

"How are you going today? You should ask about part-time jobs first, right? And will your Uncle Zhong and the others let you stay out all night? You should talk to them about it when you get home tonight."

"That's true..."

Bai Hui subconsciously touched his chest, thinking that Uncle Zhong wouldn't care about him for the time being... Because of a certain "miracle", he had gained "future awareness" and now possessed the condition of "having youth and also having the feeling of youth".

I am allowed by the dream machine to earn money to support my family!

……

Upon arriving at school, because several of them had missed class in the afternoon, a large number of rumors and subjective speculations began to circulate secretly, centered around the four of them.

Rumors circulating in the shadows have fostered the growth of the long-tongued parrot, but the long-tongued parrot has also become more cheerful as a result... This level of rumors has largely guided students' thoughts outside of their studies and has largely filled the void left by their inability to use mobile phones.

At the same time, the ghost stories on campus will be kept within a level that the school can accept and control.

Bai Hui had already instructed the group to keep their study group a secret until the midterm exams.

The others were fine with it, but He Qing was worried that she had already failed in her studies, and if the matter of the study group were exposed, her future would be completely bleak.

Feng Jue wouldn't expose himself; he still had to keep it a secret from the imposters in his family, otherwise some unpredictable and serious situations might occur.

As for Li Youye... this guy can't even remember what "monthly exam" means, it's once a month. Even if he did say it, the other students would hardly believe him.

Bai Hui was even more out of the question, because Li Youye hadn't gone home for lunch, so Bai Hui's textbooks were still at Li Youye's house.

Bai Hui didn't stand on ceremony with this guy, and directly took his textbooks, which were still brand new even after more than two months of school, and started flipping through them—

He wanted to know why his martial arts skills couldn't harm the ghost story "Parents"!

……

It was time for the second evening self-study session. By now, it was completely dark, and Bai Hui thought to himself, "It's time."

He then made an excuse to go to the restroom and left the classroom with the things he had prepared beforehand.

He went to the flower bed outside the infirmary, spread Li Youye's school uniform jacket on the ground, placed the ice glass, which had clearly melted and had fine water droplets condensed on its surface, on it, cleared his throat, and said:

"Iced Americano! A must-have for working professionals!"

Swah——

With nothing to do at night and worried about work, Zhang Yan, who was "reviewing prenatal care knowledge" online, appeared in front of Bai Hui in the blink of an eye as she made her rounds silently.

"Bai Hui? What are you doing here? Isn't it class time?"

Although Zhang Yan was talking to Bai Hui, her eyes were fixed on the few iced Americanos on the small stall, unable to look away.

[The idea has been validated; sanity points decreased by 1]

"What are you doing...?"

"It's obvious I'm selling coffee, iced Americanos."

Bai Hui calmly said, "This is an iced Americano that I personally concocted, given that I ranked in the top ten in physical education in my first year of high school and got the highest score in my class in the monthly exam. It's truly an essential drink for those who stay up late studying or working overtime all night!"

"How much is a cup?"

"18 a cup."

"So expensive?!" Zhang Yan exclaimed in surprise, "Even ordering takeout doesn't cost this much!"

"Then why don't you order takeout?"

"I hadn't thought of that before!"

"Eh~" Bai Hui had anticipated this, and immediately said, "You order takeout, which is cheaper, but can the delivery guy deliver it to the infirmary? If you go to the school gate to pick it up, won't the school leaders think you're neglecting your post and cut your salary, or even fire you?"

And more importantly... do you think a delivery driver can help you hone your nursing skills?

Zhang Yan was taken aback: "What do you mean?"

"Ms. Zhang, you're the school doctor, and I'm a student. Your job is to treat us students... If I told you you'd buy my iced Americano, I could be your practice dummy so you can practice on me and improve your skills in this area..."

"How much did you just say for one cup?"

"18!"

"I want them all!"

Zhang Yan hurriedly said, "To be honest, Bai Hui, after you gave me your pointers last time, my nursing boxing skills have indeed improved somewhat..."

Bai Hui smiled and said, "Don't rush, Teacher Zhang, we have plenty of time... By the way, do you have any questions about your emergency resuscitation palm technique?"

[The money-making plan was successfully implemented, the salary is satisfactory, and the sanity value increased by 1]

Very good, one positive and one negative, rationality and stability!
