Tree King: What? I've become the Abundant Pharmacist?

Chapter 367 A Lesson for the Little Demon

The fake Sambo immediately pulled a black VIP card out of his pocket.

Pipixi's bodyguard frowned. "I was talking about your three friends—I've already seen yours."

Fake Sambo was somewhat surprised. "Ah, this... My friend is new here, how could he possibly have a VIP card, haha."

"Could you please make an exception and let me use your card? These three identities are absolutely safe and reliable; I'll use my own card as collateral!"

Pipixi's bodyguard shook his head and said irritably, "That won't do. We can't break the rules. If you don't have the certification, please leave."

Seeing that Hanabi was getting nowhere, Ryuho sighed, "Looks like we can't get in."

"Then what should we do?" Xing asked.

The fake Sambo stretched out his hand, "Don't panic, don't panic! Let me, Sambo, think of something... Oh, I've got it!"

Suddenly, she had an idea. "How about this, bodyguard, we won't go in. Could you help me get something I left here?"

"The moment of choosing betrayal," "the shadow of doubt," "unwavering hatred until death"—just tell Sister Thunderhand that these are the "materials" prepared by the Joker, and she'll definitely understand.

"The 'Clown'?" Hoshi looked at Hanabi with a puzzled expression. "Isn't he right here?"

Fake Sambo coughed irritably.

"These are some strong emotions—as for how to use them, I'll keep you in suspense for now!"

Pipixi's bodyguard nodded. "No problem, I'll go tell her."

"You guys, wait here for a bit."

After saying that, the bodyguard went inside.

"Fireworks, what are all these things—betrayal, hatred—?" Hoshi asked curiously.

“Some memories imbued with strong emotions,” Hanabi explained.

"Then what do you need these for?"

"Of course, there's a way to let you in."

"We don't have VIP cards, so this is the only option," Hanabi sighed.

Suddenly, Eve stretched out her hand, holding three black VIP cards.

"Do you need this?" Eve asked.

Suddenly, Hanabi fell silent...

"No, you, you have one?" Hanabi wanted to swear, but reason told her not to be so impulsive.

“Yes, I just saw your VIP card and made this myself,” Eve said.

In her dreams, Eve can conjure up anything she wants.

"Why...why didn't you say so sooner?"

“You didn’t ask either,” Eve said matter-of-factly.

Hanabi was completely convinced.

When have I, as the masked fool, ever suffered such injustice?

Why do the same fun methods not work on Eve anymore?

"Fine, since we've already brought it here, let you experience it." Hanabi sighed helplessly.

At this moment, Pipixi's bodyguard walked over.

"I brought it. She said that's not enough, she also sent you a 'Shattered Dream,' and told you to handle it as you see fit."

The fake Sangbo smiled obsequiously, "Oh, how thoughtful of you, elder sister! Thank you, thank you."

After leaving the salon, Hanabi seemed to be looking for something.

"Now we only need one more thing: we need to find a nearby arcade machine... Oh, what a coincidence, there's one right outside the salon."

"Come on, come on, the real fun is just beginning."

Hanabi carried a bunch of things to an arcade machine.

Firefly couldn't understand what the fireworks were trying to do, so she asked, "Is that... a television?"

"Why was this TV set left on the roadside?"

Fireworks chuckled amusedly, "Miss Firefly~~, this is an arcade game—not that kind of electronic junk like Punk Lord, it's a game that better suits the 'dream' vibe~"

"Hey honey, why don't you try touching it and see what happens?"

Hanabi's mind is filled with another bad idea.

As Eve watched the fireworks, her inner thoughts quickly surfaced in her mind.

Sigh, this little rascal is up to no good again.

Eve shook her head helplessly.

Eve generally doesn't use mind-reading abilities, since it's not a good thing to pry into other people's minds.

But now, it has come in handy.

Eve also read Hanabi's inner thoughts when she was playing pinball.

So I gave her a little lesson.

But now, it seems this little devil still needs a lesson.

"Let's give it a try." Xing didn't think twice and wanted to put her hand on it directly.

Just then, Firefly called out to her.

"Um... I think—just I think—there might be something fishy about this TV."

"However, it's fine if you want to try... I trust your judgment."

Although Firefly was worried about Star, she respected Star's choice.

Suddenly, the arcade machine screen lit up, showing a cool guy with a big nose and sunglasses shaking violently.

"Come on, experience a different kind of fun!" Hanabi kept tempting the hesitant Hoshi.

“Fun…” Xing swallowed hard, her hand slowly moving towards the joystick.

"Hey? Ah, what brings you here?" Eve's voice came from outside.

"Ah?" Hanabi turned around abruptly, but as she did, her hand accidentally pressed the control stick first.

"Where is Aha?" Hanabi looked around but found nothing.

"Here it is~"

Eve's voice suddenly rang in Hanabi's ears.

She turned her head and suddenly realized that her hand had been on the control lever without her noticing.

"etc......."

Hanabi realized something was wrong. Suddenly, a white light flashed, and a powerful suction force instantly pulled her in.

"What happened?" Xing was still out of it.

When she saw what had appeared under the arcade machine, a look of shock appeared on her face.

"My God!"

"Oh my god..." Firefly thought so too.

Xing crouched down, looking at the firework that had turned into an unknown roadside stunt, and exclaimed, "How did you become like this?!"

Although Hanabi, now a cartoon character, desperately wanted to speak, she could only manage a cold "humph."

Why? I'm the one who got infected again?!

"What exactly is this thing?"

"His name is 'Hanu,' straightforward and silent, the steady, reliable, and cool werewolf elder brother from Pinocchio's most famous long-running animated series, 'Watch Boys.'"

Eve suddenly had a book in her hand.

"It silently protects the peace of Dream Town. According to its character setting, it can only respond with a cool *humph*."

"Huh? Eve's mom, where did you get this encyclopedia from?" Xing asked.

"It was just something I did."

Eve closed "Little Hanu's Mission" and took off her glasses.

"Moreover, this is not an encyclopedia, but a comic book called 'Little Hanu's Operation'."

"So she's become an anime character now?" Firefly curiously poked Little Firework.

This thing is kind of ugly-cute, it actually looks quite adorable.

At this moment, Little Firework let out another cold "humph".

Don't poke me! Aaaaaaah!!

"You've become so...cool." Firefly felt it was even cuter now.

"So, why did she become like this...?" Xing pondered carefully.

"He must have been sucked into this TV and swapped bodies with this Hanu brother—let me see again..."

Eve opened "Little Hanu Operation" again.

"According to the plot summary, you were shrunk by Boss Stone's strange device and are forced to embark on a thrilling adventure to save Dream Town with your tiny body..."

“Now, you have to do what the Hanu brothers did in the cartoon, and then touch this TV to turn back,” Eve said to Hanabi.

Little Firework nodded as if she understood, and then let out a cold "humph".

[Damn it! I'll definitely be back!!]

"It also says here, 'Enter the doorway to begin your adventure.'" Eve said, pointing to a hole that looked like a mouse hole as she looked at the book.

"Obviously you'll have to crawl in there to begin your challenge, darling~~"

A smile appeared on Eve's face.

Little Fireworks fell silent, followed by a cold "humph".

Why do I have this feeling that I've been set up by capital?

"We'll cheer you on, Little Firework!" Firefly encouraged Firework.

"I hope you don't get carried away by a mouse." Xing raised an eyebrow.

"Humph......"

With another cold "humph," Little Firefly angrily walked into the mouse hole.

Suddenly, a flash of white light appeared.

A hidden space appeared in front of Xiaohuahuo.

Just then, the stone boss's voice rang out: "Hahaha, you wretched Hanu brother, I've finally caught you!"

"Look how small you've become—you definitely can't escape my grasp now!"

Little Fireworks ignored what the Stone Boss said and continued walking.

She needs to get the item quickly and then turn back.

Just then, a blue dinosaur balloon blocked her way.

The stone shop owner laughed loudly: "Hahaha, look, you're blocked! How pitiful!"

"I won't tell you such a huge secret—if you use the rocket launcher next to you right now, you can easily break through that obstacle! Hahaha!"

Hanabi frowned. Sure enough, villains in anime always die from talking too much.

Wait a minute, I think I am too...

Little Fireworks fell silent. She picked up the RPG rocket launcher beside her and fired a shot.

With a loud "boom," the blue dinosaur balloon exploded into pieces.

The stone shop owner exclaimed in regret, "Oh, damn it! I hate my mouth, it gave away the secret!"

Little Firework continued forward and soon came across a beautiful treasure chest.

Clearly, this is the stone owner's treasure.

Stone Boss: "Oh, damn it, Brother Hanu! You've ruined my plans again and stolen the treasure I worked so hard to extract!"

"Okay, I admit it, you saved Dream Town once again—but I'll be back!"

Open the treasure chest and take out an item: [A Moment of Freedom].

Hanabi couldn't help but sigh, "Finally got it. It's like trying to steal a chicken and losing the rice instead."

As they emerged from the mouse hole, Eve's voice rang out, "Our little firework is back!"

"How was it? Did you complete the task well?"

Xiaohuabi let out a cold "humph," then walked to the arcade machine and pressed the control stick.

After a flash of white light, the little firework returned to normal.

"Are you alright, Miss Hanabi?" Hotaru asked with concern.

"It's nothing..." Hanabi looked exhausted.

After experiencing all sorts of events, she suddenly realized that she was the one who had fun.

"Don't you have anything to explain, Mom?" Hanabi looked at Eve with a dejected expression.

“My dear daughter, you did a wonderful job! Look what this is—'A Moment of Freedom'—you got it.” Eve ignored Hanabi’s words.

Hanabi let out a long sigh of relief; she knew this would be the outcome.

"A moment of freedom?" Hoshi looked at the handcuff donut in Hanabi's hand.

Indeed, it was just a moment of freedom.

"Let's go, I'll take you to the next place. Rakuko is waiting for us..." Hanabi was already tired.

She suddenly realized that finding amusement wasn't so important anymore, since the greatest amusement seemed to be herself.

Every time Lezi is about to succeed, an unexpected thing always happens, as if someone else has known his thoughts and plans in advance.

It's really too bizarre.

"This road... are we going back to the Aodi Shopping Center?" Liu Ying looked at the street, feeling a strange sense of familiarity.

Firefly nodded and said calmly, "Yes, Miss Firefly, the good stuff is over there."

Soon, they arrived at the Dream Shop.

"Huh? You're back here again?" Xing looked at the big blue eyeball in surprise.

Dr. Edward opened his eyes: "Welcome back to the Dream Shop. Dr. Edward is at your service!"

"Pioneers of the Star Train, we meet again—haha, and you've brought two interesting friends with you!"

Upon seeing Dr. Edward, Hanabi regained her composure and became interested: "Hi, Dr. Edward. I want to show my friends something... fun, you know."

"Of course, Dr. Edward welcomes thrill-seekers! May I read your dreams, sir?"

Hanabi nodded. "Of course, I'll use mine. The one from last night is perfect."

Firefly looked at Fireworks with a puzzled expression. "Uh... what's going on?"

Dr. Edward then explained, “Let me explain. This is a service offered to our experienced clients: you can submit your recent dreams to me, along with relevant emotional archetypes, and I can create personalized dream bubbles that can be experienced repeatedly.”
