Chapter 52: Chapter 52: I Spent 200,000, Am I Ascending to the Heavens! [Vote for monthly pass!]
Immediately, a strip of bandage extended from Mu Rufeng’s body.
When the bandage reached the stewardess, it forcefully slapped her forehead.
Whether the force was too light or what, the sleeping stewardess surprisingly had no reaction.
After a few more slaps with the same effect, Mu Rufeng simply had the bandage wrap around the stewardess and then yanked her down from her seat.
And, he pulled her all the way out of Carriage No. 2, right beside him.
As soon as the stewardess left Carriage No. 2, she woke up.
...
“Ah~~!” The stewardess abruptly awoke, her face full of fright.
“Tell me, what exactly is going on in Carriage No. 2?” Mu Rufeng asked.
“Huh? Damn, what kind of bug are you?” Seeing Mu Rufeng, the Contractor, the stewardess cursed him immediately and then made to strike.
Left with no choice, Mu Rufeng had to take out the wad of cash and smash it down on top of the stewardess’s head.
The heavy blow brought her back to her senses.
Though her head was slightly caved in, it didn’t affect the stewardess’s intelligence.
“Here’s your medical fee and tip. Now, can you tell me about the situation in Carriage No. 2?” Mu Rufeng tossed down a dozen or so banknotes and calmly said.
It was at that moment that the stewardess finally understood the gravity of the situation.
The first thing she did was pick up the fifteen banknotes and then, with a fawning face, said:
“Sir, you must be headed to the dining car but you absolutely mustn’t go there. Once you enter Carriage No. 2, you’ll be affected by that Nightmare gentleman’s Nightmare Power.”
“The Nightmare gentleman will be getting off at the next station. You can wait for him to leave and then go.”
“Hmm? Wait for him to leave? Nightmare Power? Are you saying you allow him to do this on the train? Give me a clearer explanation,” Mu Rufeng asked with a frown.
“Sir, it’s like this, because the Nightmare gentleman is a VIP customer of our train and has a certain relationship with our train conductor. He is also an executive at a catering company and supplies us with some food ingredients.”
“This time when he took our train, he spent twenty thousand yuan, making him a big customer.”
“The Nightmare gentleman rather likes making people have nightmares and then absorbing their power. But he doesn’t endanger our lives, so our train conductor turns a blind eye.”
The stewardess explained.
“How much? How much did he spend?” Mu Rufeng asked in astonishment.
“Sir, it’s twenty thousand yuan. The Nightmare gentleman is of noble status and could easily spend fifty thousand yuan. It’s not just about spending twenty thousand yuan. If I had two thousand yuan in savings, I’d wake from a nightmare laughing.”
The stewardess said with envy.
“Oh, wait, no, sir, you just gave me a consumption of one thousand five hundred yuan. With my savings, that’s already enough, hehe,” the stewardess said suddenly brimming with joy.
“Twenty thousand yuan allows him to be so arrogant? If I spend two hundred thousand, wouldn’t I be able to ascend to the heavens?” Mu Rufeng said in shock.
“Sir, you must be joking. Two hundred thousand, that’s the monthly revenue of our train’s dining service.”
The stewardess did not doubt Mu Rufeng’s financial resources, but two hundred thousand was completely out of the question.
“Ah? Your train’s dining service generates only two hundred thousand in a month?” This truly astonished Mu Rufeng.
Could it be that such a formidable train was actually performing so poorly?
Or perhaps, was their food terrible?
No, they used to offer free food, so it might be even lower.
This twenty thousand in revenue was probably from recently introduced paid food, accounting for a portion.
The rest, presumably, came from the dining car.
Speaking of which, the minimum charge is one thousand yuan, filtering out most abnormalities.
Those who could afford to go to the dining car would surely be abnormal beings of rich heritage and considerable strength.
“You still haven’t answered my question,” Mu Rufeng said.
“Uh… Sir, even if you were to spend one hundred thousand, we could change the itinerary just for you,” the stewardess said.
“Good, that’s rewarding!” Mu Rufeng took out a stack of banknotes and stuffed them into a rather indiscreet place on the stewardess.
Yes, it was a bit cold to the touch, but it felt real enough.
This stack of banknotes had fulfilled its purpose; he doubted that any abnormality could now embarrass him.
“Ah?” The stewardess exclaimed in shock, then delightedly grasped at the stack of cash.
As she saw how much money there was, her pale cheeks flushed with excitement.
“Sir, this is my private number. If you need anything, I… I can satisfy your needs,” the stewardess said bashfully, stuffing a slip of paper with her number into Mu Rufeng’s bandage.
She felt her own charm had done its magic, and she was somewhat proud of herself.
“Uh….” This confused Mu Rufeng.
He had only kept the tip off the floor and not tossed it at her out of respect for her improved attitude.
Shaking his head, Mu Rufeng ignored it.
As for the stewardess’s slip of paper with her number, it now wasn’t a good time to throw it away; he would wait until he moved to the next carriage.
Then, Mu Rufeng prepared to step into Carriage No. 2.
However, after a second thought, something didn’t seem quite right, so he quickly tied the bandage to a spot outside the carriage.
If he fell victim, the bandage would pull him out of the carriage immediately.
After ensuring all was set, Mu Rufeng stepped into the carriage.
Unaffected, Mu Rufeng remained cautious nonetheless.
“Good fortune is coming your way, good fortune bringing joy and love.”

“Good fortune comes and we welcome it all.”
“Greeting good fortune, prosperity and success reach far and wide.”
“Fold a thousand paper cranes and tie a red ribbon.”
“Wishing kind-hearted people good fortune every day~~”
A lively rendition of ‘Good Fortune Comes’ filled the entire carriage.
Mu Rufeng approached the Suit Ghost, who was still happily hopping and dancing around.
But the murderous look in his eyes was unmistakable.
If he hadn’t been unable to speak, he would have surely gone on a killing spree.
Strong ghost qi permeated the entire carriage, yet he was unable to make a move.
It seemed that the Rule Items limited his actions.
“Not bad, you’re quite the singer,” Mu Rufeng complimented.
“This is my first time using this item. It seems you can’t attack me, but I wonder if I can attack you,” Mu Rufeng wanted to test it out.
But then he thought about the train’s rules. Experimenting might violate them.
After considering it, Mu Rufeng decided to leave it be; after all, the item was in his possession, there would be ample time to try it out later.
