322: 100% no bad reviews
Hearing this voice, Su Yue became even more convinced that this so-called guaranteed effective shop was a scam.
It's the 21st century, and people still believe such unreliable claims? Could those people online all be paid actors?
How did this shop manage to have zero negative reviews?
Su Yue silently complained in his heart for a while before saying, "Can you fulfill any wish I make?"
"Yes."
Su Yue nodded, "Alright then, tell me the lottery numbers for this drawing."
"Apologies, this shop does not facilitate illegal activities."
Su Yue retorted, "How is this illegal? Didn't you just say you could fulfill any wish? Isn't this my wish right now?"
"Since you won't tell me the lottery numbers, then fulfill my wish to become the richest person in the world. That's not illegal, is it?"
After Su Yue finished speaking, there was a noticeable dead silence in the surroundings.
After a while, the other party rejected Su Yue's wish again.
"Customer, your wishes are beyond reality. This shop does not provide such services."
Su Yue was immediately amused. He scoffed and mocked, "Then your shop is really interesting. First, someone came out and said I wasn't suitable for your shop and tried to chase me away."
"Now that I've come in to make a wish, you say my wish is too much. What, did I ask you to be guaranteed effective? Didn't you yourselves claim you could fulfill any request I made?"
"Now, no matter what wish I make, it can't be fulfilled. Is this how your shop deceives customers? I'm going to sue your shop for fraud!"
"As expected, your shop is a scam. With so many good reviews online, you must have hired a lot of people, spent a lot of money, and deleted a lot of bad reviews, right?"
"Heh, you're unlucky to have met me today. I will truthfully expose you online."
After saying that, Su Yue turned and left.
"Wait!"
Unlike the calm and composed voice from before, this time the person on the other side was clearly anxious and shouted in a hurry.
Su Yue's mouth curved up as expected. He ignored the other party's attempt to stop him and continued walking out.
Since photography was not allowed in this shop, as indicated by a sign at the entrance when entering, Su Yue didn't break the rules by secretly taking pictures and just walked out.
However, before Su Yue could take a few more steps, several burly men suddenly appeared from all directions, glaring fiercely at Su Yue.
The leader cracked his knuckles and glared menacingly at Su Yue.
"Kid, never mind that you didn't read our wish declaration, you still want to expose us? Are you tired of living?"
Su Yue wasn't intimidated by the other party's threat. He calmly met his gaze, without a hint of fear in his eyes.
He looked at the other party calmly and said expressionlessly, "What? Are you planning to lay hands on me? Fine, I'll see how impressive your shop really is, daring to even attack customers."
Much to Su Yue's surprise, the burly men in front of him didn't become enraged when they heard his threat. Instead, the leader gestured to the burly men behind him, and they suddenly rushed forward.
Su Yue had been on alert since entering the shop, so he naturally sensed their intention to grab him immediately. He took a stance, ready to fight them.
However, before Su Yue could even make a move, he was caught in a pincer attack from the front and back. His hands and feet were directly tied up by the few of them, leaving him unable to move for a moment.
Su Yue hadn't been treated like this in a long time, and he was quite angry for a moment. He struggled to break free from their restraints, but he didn't know if they had done this too many times, as Su Yue couldn't break free for a while.
Su Yue was then carried by them into a room, where they threw him down and turned to leave, not forgetting to lock the door from the outside as they left.
This was the first time Su Yue had seen a shop that, upon hearing a customer threaten to give them a bad review and expose them, didn't immediately become enraged and try to deal with the customer, but instead did something so inexplicable. For a moment, Su Yue was bewildered.
Su Yue tried to open the door, but after trying for a long time, he couldn't open it. The door had been locked from the outside.
Su Yue felt utterly speechless but also helpless. Finally, he could only turn around and examine the room they had thrown him into.
This room had the same decor style as the shop, dim and eerie, with a terrifying atmosphere. Those with less courage might even be frightened by it.
Su Yue really didn't understand what this shop was doing. He carefully looked around but found nothing unusual. There was only one table and two chairs in the room, and it was completely silent.
Su Yue directly shouted into the air, "What is going on with your shop? Are you planning to keep me locked in here? Do you think I'll compromise with you like this?"
The familiar voice sounded again: "Guest, you are overthinking. You didn't trust us just now, so we are planning to change the method for you. This time, we guarantee that your wishes will come true."
"There are our wishing rules on the table. Guest, you only need to write your wish on the paper according to the rules to make it come true."
"If you do not make a wish according to the wishing rules, your wish may not come true."
Su Yue wasn't fooled by them and sneered, somewhat disdainfully.
"So you can't be guaranteed effective, and that's why you're playing tricks on me, right? If my wish still doesn't come true this time, what are you planning to do to me?"
"You're not really planning to find someone to beat me up, are you?"
If Su Yue were timid, he would have first been threatened by a group of burly men, and now he was inexplicably locked in a dark room.
Then he would definitely feel that this shop was not to be messed with, and those thoughts of reporting them would have long been thrown to the back of his mind.
But who was Su Yue? He was Yuan. He didn't even know how many dangerous cases he had handled with Liang Yuzhu. How could his mindset be so fragile that he would be threatened by the other party like this?
Therefore, even though he was now locked in a dark room, Su Yue wasn't scared at all. Instead, he didn't forget to mock the other party.
The shopkeeper had a good temper. Even though Su Yue was mocking him like this, he was still very calm, his voice still as unvarying as before.
"Guest, you can try making a wish first. If it doesn't work, you can complain about us again."
Su Yue snorted, clearly not believing them.
However, he didn't get angry and cooperatively picked up the paper and pen from the table.
The light here was dim, and the items they prepared were all black, so Su Yue really hadn't noticed that there were things on the table just now.
He picked it up and saw the shop's name, 'All-Knowing General Store', immediately.
Su Yue mocked without politeness, "You call this 'All-Knowing'? My wishes can't even be fulfilled. What 'All-Knowing'? Liars!"
"Guest, the wish you made has exceeded the petition requirements of this shop. Please do not make things difficult for us."
Su Yue retorted, "Since you say the wish I made is beyond your capabilities, why did you just promise that any wish could be fulfilled?"

While the other party was silent, Su Yue added, "If you can't do it, you can't do it. What's with blaming the mistake on me? Could it be that too many people have praised you, and you've become arrogant? Do you really think you're something special?"
After Su Yue finished speaking, the voice did not sound again.
And Su Yue didn't care whether they responded or not. Anyway, he had said what he wanted to say. As for whether the person behind it would be greatly angered by him, that was not something he needed to consider.
Su Yue continued to read the so-called instructions. The instructions rambled on about the origin of sincere wishing. Su Yue didn't have the patience to read it and skipped directly to the wishing rules at the bottom.
It said, "Wishing requires sincerity. Please silently recite the shop's name, 'All-Knowing General Store', three times before making a wish."
"Wishing must start from oneself and must not change the will of others..."
Looking at the numerous requirements on the paper, Su Yue was speechless, "With so many requirements, you still dare to say you're guaranteed effective? What is this if not deceiving consumers?"
"You can first make a sincere wish. If our shop does not fulfill it, you can choose to complain about us again. We guarantee that we will not have any objections."
Upon hearing this, Su Yue raised an eyebrow. He didn't expect that even after he had said all that, the people here were still quite confident.
He didn't know where their confidence came from.
Su Yue thought for a moment and decided to wait and see.
He picked up the pen and wrote his wish: "Double salary."
After writing, Su Yue looked up at the camera directly in front of him, "Can you let me out now?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a 'click' sound was heard the next second.
Su Yue didn't linger. He got up, pulled open the door, and walked out.
Along the way, Su Yue didn't encounter any more anomalies and safely left the room.
When Lan Zijun saw Su Yue come out, she looked at him with a worried face.
"Su Yue, why were you in there for so long? Nothing happened to you, did it?"
Su Yue shook his head, "I'm fine, don't worry. But Lan Ziju, you don't need to go in, let's go."
Lan Zijun was a little surprised and looked at Su Yue confusedly, asking with her eyes what was going on.
In front of General Guan, Su Yue didn't explain what was going on to Lan Zijun. He just smiled and said, "My stomach feels a little uncomfortable, I want to go to the hospital to get it checked."
Lan Zijun instantly became nervous and no longer cared what was going on with this shop. She stepped forward and supported Su Yue's shoulder, speaking a little anxiously.
"Su Yue, does it hurt a lot? Let's go, we'll go to the hospital right now."
General Guan also looked very nervous when he heard Su Yue say his stomach hurt.
"General Manager Su, you didn't eat something bad, did you? Let me take you there. I'm treating you to this meal, and it's my fault for not choosing a good shop and causing you suffering."
Su Yue shook his head, "No need, it has nothing to do with you. I just suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, maybe I'll be fine after resting for a while."
Lan Zijun panicked when she heard Su Yue had a stomachache and immediately refuted him.
"No! We should hurry to the hospital. Let's go."
General Guan originally wanted to take Su Yue, and seeing that Lan Zijun was also about to agree, Su Yue quickly gave her a look.
After seeing Su Yue's look, Lan Zijun instantly realized that Su Yue was pretending, and her panicked mood immediately calmed down.
Understanding Su Yue's meaning, Lan Zijun didn't dare to let General Guan take them anymore. Fortunately, they came separately, so proposing to leave separately at this time wouldn't be too abrupt.
"No need, General Guan. I have a driver. I'll take Su Yue to the hospital myself."
General Guan still wanted to persuade them to stay, but Lan Zijun didn't give him the chance and left with Su Yue arm in arm.
As soon as they got in the car, Su Yue immediately dropped his pained expression.
Lan Zijun had been keeping an eye on Su Yue, and seeing that he was indeed not uncomfortable at all, she finally completely relaxed.
She asked with some confusion, "Su Yue, what's wrong? Why did you suddenly pull me away?"
She had waited outside for Su Yue for so long, and it took him a long time to come out. On top of that, he wanted to pull her away as soon as he came out, which made Lan Zijun extremely confused.
Fortunately, when they left, she saw that General Guan's expression also seemed not very good, otherwise their sudden departure might have aroused General Guan's suspicion.
However, Lan Zijun was not sure what General Guan was thinking about them now. It was very likely that he would also suspect the purpose of their visit.
Su Yue frowned slightly and said, "This shop is a scam, you don't need to go."
Su Yue was in such a hurry to pull Lan Zijun away because he was worried that Lan Zijun would be manipulated by the people inside after going in and would ultimately fall for their trick.
After all, in that dim and eerie atmosphere, people's rationality could easily be led astray. If those people locked Lan Zijun in a dark room like they did to him, Su Yue wasn't sure if these people would do anything to Lan Zijun.
Therefore, Su Yue chose to directly pull Lan Zijun away, so as to directly avoid harm.
Su Yue didn't plan to tell Lan Zijun what he had experienced inside, and when Lan Zijun heard Su Yue say that the shop was a scam, although she felt strange, she subconsciously believed Su Yue.
She nodded, indicating understanding, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Lan Zijun couldn't help but be curious, "Su Yue, if we leave like this, won't it disrupt your plan? What if General Guan suspects the two of us?"
Hearing this, Su Yue smiled confidently. He said with certainty, "Don't worry, Lan Ziju, General Guan himself doesn't like this shop, and you and I are the people he's trying to please."
"He'll be too happy to see us stay away from this shop, how could he suspect us?"
"How do you say that?" Lan Zijun was a little surprised. She had been with General Guan for so long, and she hadn't even noticed this point.
Su Yue explained, "I need to investigate the specific reasons further, but you should have noticed that General Guan initially didn't really want us to come to this shop. He only agreed when we said we wanted to come."
"When I came out, I noticed that his expression was clearly a little flustered. It wasn't until you pulled me to go to the hospital that he seemed to snap out of his memory, and his expression was clearly very off."
After Su Yue mentioned this, Lan Zijun also understood a lot.
She had thought that when they left just now, she had also noticed that General Guan's expression seemed a little off. It turned out that it wasn't her imagination.
Since Lan Zijun didn't understand what Su Yue was going to do, she hesitated for a moment and asked, "Su Yue, are you going home or back to the company next?"
Speaking of the company, Su Yue suddenly became interested in the wish he had just made. He didn't tell Lan Zijun about his wish just now. After all, he didn't care about his salary at the moment. He made the wish just to try it out.
Therefore, he also wanted to see if the shop was that effective. He said, "Let's go back to the company. I haven't finished my work yet."
