Chapter 4, Let us trade

It is no wonder that the penguin is so angry

No, no, after being struck down by a despairing blow, I fell into a coma. I do not know how long it has been, but I woke up in pain all over, either in a prison or a hospital—facing the usual process after encountering Batman, the Penguin does not like it at all

As a Level 1 Proxy, he cannot remain in other worlds for an extended period. Each time he is transported to another world, Bai Ye can stay in that world for 24 hours (standard time), and at the twelfth hour, Bai Ye has the option to leave early

On the contrary, if they truly wish to accept Bai Ye over there, hoping for his discharge from the hospital and to bring him home, it is then that Bai Ye would feel troubled

A certain amount of authority and wealth can extend a standard hour, during which one can freely return to the current main world.

Sitting beside the coffee table on the sofa, Song Yin gestured for Bai Ye to take a seat as well: "You should sit down too."

The Penguin cannot reveal to that group of lunatics in Gotham City that beneath the Batman mask is Bruce Wayne

The reason a secret is a secret is that it cannot be known by many others

Fortunately, Hei has no emotions and will not experience any emotional fluctuations due to the questions posed by Bai Ye, simply responding: "It cannot be quantified."

You should spend more time in the sun. Song Yin's tone was somewhat assertive, as she seemed determined to have a serious conversation with Bai Ye to see if she could correct his peculiar thoughts

The return of the white night is certainly not empty-handed

"White Night, my surname is Song." Song Yin corrected White Night's mistake with a serious demeanor

Song Yin thought to herself, while still maintaining a smile on her face, "If it is just about opening a store, then this matter should not be a transaction between us"

However, the awkward thing is that the penguin people cannot temporarily think of the benefits of knowing this secret for themselves

It was not until one of the Penguin's secretaries arrived that the Penguin's anger was somewhat quelled

As long as Bai Ye does not make any noise, there will be no medical staff deliberately coming to check on Bai Ye's recent condition

What?

Neither the surveillance outside the room nor those subordinates have found any trace left by this person, nor can they determine the means by which he departed

What are the functions of the power and wealth values? Bai Ye inquired

White Night

As a "veteran patient", Bai Ye does not actually receive much attention

However, Song Yin's actions still demonstrated her desire to attain a dominant position. If she were to be led into the ditch by Bai Ye again, as happened last night, it would not be good.

In a certain sense, this is indeed not incorrect

However, this is quite normal; this is merely a standard transaction proposed by Bai Ye, and standard transactions are not guaranteed to be established, as the other party has the right to refuse.

What about the final aspect of wealth transformation

Bai Ye squinted his eyes; he did not like the glaring sunlight.

"The return will be interfered with by powerful forces," said Hei.

I see. "What about extending the stay?" said Bai Ye

The benefits of a comprehensive manual are evident as one gradually accumulates wealth in the game of White Night; there is no need for repeated experimentation, as a simple "glance" at the manual is sufficient

Song Yin was taken aback for a moment, then asked, "What transaction?"

The price for revealing one's identity as Batman to the other party is one hundred thousand US dollars, which is indeed not low; however, it is not to the extent that the Penguin feels he has been mocked or deceived.

It was only the next morning when the Penguin Man intended to find the White Night that he discovered this mysterious fellow had vanished without a trace

Under the name of Bai Ye, there is a bank card that can be used normally. Ever since Bai Ye began to show signs of recovery, a considerable amount of living expenses has been deposited into it from home every month

What kind of method is it? Bai Ye asked.

Of course, it cannot be said that there is much concern for the White Night; the attitude remains rather indifferent

How did he leave? Are you all blind? You actually know nothing! Or is it that he, like Batman, has successfully made you all blind?" The Penguin shouted angrily at his subordinates

He left the magical umbrella in the room, and happily exited to the dining room to enjoy a delicious and hearty breakfast, before returning to the room to piece together the puzzle scattered on the glass coffee table

Hmm? Bai Ye looked at Song Yin

The subordinates of the Penguin were scolded mercilessly, huddling there in silence, afraid to speak up

The most embarrassing thing in the world is like this: Gotham City can exist without Batman, but if Bruce Wayne were to die in Gotham City, the Wayne Enterprises would be thrown into turmoil, which would be nothing short of a disaster for Gotham City

The reason for wanting to find the White Night is that the Penguin Man still hopes to extract additional benefits from him, but unexpectedly, the other party suddenly disappeared right under his nose

"Affect the transmission world, extend the stay duration, and transform wealth," said Hei.

Oh. Bai Ye nodded, not really knowing whether he had taken it to heart or not

He does not care about the attitude of his family towards him, whether they give him money or not, it is all the same to him

Bai Ye walked over and opened the door

He cannot use this secret against Batman—if Batman were to learn of this matter, what would he do

Oh, then how much wealth will I need to spend to go to Gotham City next time

Even the Penguin does not dare to shoot at Batman casually; if he wishes to kill him, he must also consider the subsequent consequences

He disappeared in the room just like that, to the extent that his elusive nature was almost on par with that of Batman

Well, let's put it aside for now and discuss it later. Bai Ye collected the money he received from the Penguin, as he was not in need of funds

Where has the white night gone

"I haven't thought it through; it would be best to have something versatile, something that can sell anything." Bai Ye said with an air of certainty.

"How strong?" Bai Ye posed a somewhat nonsensical and difficult-to-answer question

The umbrella he obtained from the Penguin was worth 100,000 US dollars, which can barely be considered a small item, and he successfully brought it back

If one were truly stingy, Bai Ye would no longer reside in this sanatorium

The cold, mechanical voice continued: "By paying a certain amount of wealth, one can perform multiple fixed transmissions, but can only choose the last world that was transmitted to."

His goal is to venture into the myriad realms and endless worlds to engage in various activities—not just that, but to conduct proper transactions, which is far more convenient than at home compared to a sanatorium

What I want to say about this white night is that it is truly wonderful

His base of operations is in Gotham City, and only in Gotham City can he be the arrogant crime lord—Oswald Chesterfield Cobblepot

The penguin was so angry, not only because of the mysterious disappearance of the White Night, but also because after returning last night, he pondered and realized that he had not gained much advantage from this transaction with the White Night.

Facing the self-assured Bai Ye, Song Yin extended her hand, rubbed her brow, and appeared somewhat fatigued: "What kind of store is that, and what does it primarily sell?"

Equity value: 100.00005

This is the current status of Bai Ye, who has obtained 100 points of authority and wealth value through the transaction completed with the Penguin.

It can be converted into 500,000 Huaxia coins in the main world, with the option to choose either cash or electronic currency mode. Please note that converting excessively large amounts of wealth may impact the stability of the existing economic system, requiring the consumption of additional wealth value for stabilization

At that moment, there was a knock on the door, and Song Yin's voice came through: "Bai Ye, are you inside?"

It is indeed somewhat difficult to communicate

Does this count as a rejection of his transaction

In this briefest of moments, Bai Ye seemed to have solidified his thoughts, confidently stating: "Yes, I have said it before, working for others is not an option, so I want to be the boss"

"Consume 50 points of wealth value to perform five fixed world transfers, which cannot be changed," said Hei. "The consumption of wealth value is not static; after the initial five, continuing with another five will require the consumption of 500 points of wealth value."

"Alright, Doctor Wang," Bai Ye said as he took a seat

"Store?" Song Yin furrowed her brows slightly

"How have you been lately?" Song Yin used a trivial and unnutritious opening line for small talk, but before she could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by Bai Ye.

Identity: Level 1 Delegate of Power and Wealth's Scepter

"Dr. Li, let's make a deal," Bai Ye said with a smile as he looked at Song Yin

He merely returned to his original world

He wants to keep it hidden and only bring it out when necessary

If other criminals might harbor thoughts like "I just want to destroy Gotham," then the Penguin would never entertain such ideas

Race: Human

Song Yin did not rush in; instead, she first scrutinized Bai Ye from head to toe, confirming whether there was any difference in his condition compared to yesterday. She then walked to the window, pulled open the curtains, and allowed the blinding sunlight to pour into the room

If you wish to transmit again, you must wait 72 standard hours, which is three days, starting from the moment of return

Regarding the mutual conversion of currencies recognized within different yet similar civilizational systems, Hei inquired, "Is it possible to convert the existing currency into the legal currency of the main world by consuming 10.00005 points of wealth value"

Will the regression be interfered with

"Help me open a store, I don't know how to start a business..." Bai Ye appeared somewhat excited, with a sense of "I must be a genius for thinking of this". Clearly, this was not a well-considered proposal for a transaction, but rather a spur-of-the-moment decision to take action.

The penguin believes that the greater possibility is that this fellow will come over and directly hit himself to solve the matter

To be promoted to a Level 2 Agent, it is necessary to accumulate 1,000 points of authority and wealth value, with a progress of 10%, and 0.00005 points of wealth value have been disregarded. The voice of the black figure echoed.

Having a secret in hand is ultimately a good thing

Black ... ... "White Night thought to himself.

How does it affect me? Can it allow me to freely choose the world?" Bai Ye asked.

It is evident that, in Song Yin's view, although Bai Ye is no longer the withdrawn person he once was, he still remains a patient

She did not intend to let Bai Ye go to places like the consultation room; in the room, Bai Ye was clearly more at ease.

The Bai family will not be stingy with this amount of money

Soon, Bai Ye completed the last few pieces of the puzzle, still with the back facing up, making it impossible to discern the content of the front

Knowing Batman's true identity, the assistance from the Penguin is not as significant as it seems
