Broke
The long, narrow, and cold corridor of the mental hospital was deserted. Su Luo stood Jingjing in place, watching Shang Yang slowly walk out after completing his [Psychiatric Evaluation].
Now only the middle-aged Baldy who impersonated a doctor is left inside.
"How much did it cost?" Su Luo asked.
"120,000, and what about you?" Shang Yang's expression was very calm.
"Fifty thousand."
Su Luo held up a [Psychiatric Evaluation Certificate].
"How can there be such a big difference?" Shang Yang was instantly stunned.
"I'm perfectly mentally sound," Su Luo said calmly. "I'll give you 100,000 yuan to show me around [Adrian]."
"That money was originally mine." Shang Yang's face twitched.
"How could a normal person drop money? That money definitely wasn't found; you stole it. Otherwise, you wouldn't have given it back so readily."
"How can you call something a scholar does 'stealing'? That's just burglary!"
The two whispered to each other in the corridor.
Su Luo threw 100,000 yuan at Shang Yang's face.
"Thanks!"
Shang Yang subconsciously nodded and bowed, then realized what he meant:
"Thank you so much! Give me back the remaining 100,000!"
"It's okay if you don't pay it back. We'll calculate your loan amount; you borrow 100,000 and have to pay back a million..."
"Shh."
Su Luo stopped Shang Yang's unreasonable demands and began to wander around the mental hospital.
"Production department, psychoanalysis department, therapy room, treatment room, fake document production workshop..."
Upon reaching the top floor, the two stopped and stared in silence at the [fake document production workshop].
There's a price list above:
[Psychoanalytic Report Revision: 10,000]
[Schizophrenia Certificate: 20,000]
[Specified Quirk Certification: 30,000]
[Psychiatric Evaluation certificate: 30,000]
[...]
"This is a fake certificate; ours should be genuine," Shang Yang said.
"Not necessarily." Su Luo walked downstairs. "Aren't you a local? How come you didn't know that fake documents could be made on the rooftop?"
"Who would come to a mental hospital to get a fake certificate for no reason?"
"What are you planning to do next?" Su Luo was too lazy to dwell on these questions.
He still has 50,000 yuan left, which should be enough for him to survive in [Adrian].
But whether he could get into [Adrian Academy], he didn't know.
"Go get a job first."
When they reached the first floor, the two encountered a middle-aged Baldy walking out dejectedly.
"How much did she ask for?" Shang Yang asked casually.
"[Psychiatric Evaluation] failed, and she won't give me the certificate no matter what I say." The Baldy's face was grim.
"You can't even pass this? I can't even imagine how crazy you are." Shang Yang was shocked.
"My problem isn't mental," the Baldy shook his head, then looked up at Su Luo and the other person. "The three of us hit it off immediately today. How about we go out for a meal? It's on me!"
Su Luo thought about it for a moment and realized that she hadn't eaten in a long time, so she agreed immediately.
"If you're broke, are you going to treat your mother to a meal?"
Shang Yang held an eight-thousand-yuan bill in his hand, veins bulging on his forehead.
The Baldy lay leisurely in the chair.
"Didn't I say it's not a mental problem? It's a financial problem—I have no money."
"If we owe money here, then the credit of the three of us might be in a bit of a problem."
"I can tell you're a student at the academy, this guy in the hospital gown is new, and I'm even worse off. Only you're the one most afraid of damaging your reputation."
"Kid, you didn't want this either..."
After hearing so much vulgar language, Shang Yang blushed, seemingly a little embarrassed.
"Fuck your mother! Do you know how much time I've wasted on those eight thousand dollars...?"
Su Luo completely ignored the argument between the two, knowing that he was not going to pay anyway, and calmly began to look down at the menu.
The Baldy just brought them here for a big meal, and it was pretty good.
Various rare and precious materials can roughly raise the Attribute of an ordinary person with an Attribute of 26 to 26.5.
You can also see the origin of the dishes from the menu.

Is this the advanced world?
"[Lan Cijiu] should be quite enjoyable. However, the food in his advanced Dungeon should be even more outrageous."
Su Luo was thinking of taking some tea with her before she left.
Edible items that can enhance Attributes and various effects are known as "treasures" in the Darkness Survival.
There were quite a few in the area, Su Luo sometimes took them, but she didn't see them much after arriving in the [Land of Darkness].
Even the most dedicated environmentalists in the Land of Darkness would shake their heads at that place.
Originally, they were waiting for Han Song to nurture it with the little green bottle, but its combat power grew too fast, and the rate at which the treasure's upper limit could be increased simply couldn't keep up.
However, you can take some other treasures with you before you leave, and then put them in the little green bottle.
While Su Luo was tasting the menu, the conflict between the two people next to her had reached its peak.
Shang Yang blushed and raised her hand, summoning a completely black cat out of thin air.
The Baldy was terrified and immediately fled.
A subtle sonic boom suddenly exploded, and Shang Yang instantly broke the speed of sound in this world, reaching 100,000 kilometers per second. He raised his hand and precisely pressed the Black Cat onto the bald man's back.
The Baldy froze on the spot, trembling all over.
The cat slowly licked its paws and placed them on the Baldy's back.
The Baldy collapsed on the spot, convulsing on the ground, looking as if he had mutilated the road.
The Black Cat leisurely licked its paw tips again, glanced indifferently at the person on the ground, and then vanished into thin air.
After a while, the Baldy, covered in sweat, Resurrection on the spot and no longer insulted Shang Yang.
"Is this [Adrian's ] way of handling conflict, using cats to fight?"
Su Luo asked Shang Yang.
[Adrian] should be incapable of harming each other, and even their personal domains are Suppression, but that Black Cat just now was able to instantly kill the Baldy.
"This is how [Adrian Academy] handles conflicts, appearing to you as a cat. To me, it's clearly an Adjudication Sacred Dragon; who knew your perception would be so strange?"
Shang Yang's face was no longer so flushed with embarrassment, and he sat down to pay the bill.
"You don't need to know the specifics; all you need to know is that I just spent over 30,000!"
Regarding spending money to delete accounts.
The Baldy also came over and sat down in the chair. The first thing he did was to grab Shang Yang's hand and shake it up and down.
"Thank you, thank you! I've used up my last life, and now I'm leaving [Adrian]!"
Shang Yang's face twitched.
"Would it be a good thing for you if I killed you?!"
The Baldy shook his head and sighed deeply.
"There's nothing I can do. I originally came to [Adrian Academy] to enroll, but for some reason, my mother has been monitoring me, which makes it impossible for me to do what I want. It's better to go and explore other places where she can't see me."
Su Luo and Shang Yang exchanged a glance.
He's also a second-generation rich kid.
