I'm a poker player, not a Yu-Gi-Oh!

...than patience?

An Zhiliang remained on high alert, his muscles tensed up, and he stared at the cloaked man motionless.

However, at this moment, the cloaked man suddenly twitched all over and made... the sound of plastic squeezing?

With a "touch" sound, the cloaked man's body exploded. It wasn't Hitomi Hoshimi at all, not even a human being. It was just a plastic mannequin that could be seen everywhere and was displayed in shop windows! The face of the dummy was hollowed out, and a communicator was embedded in it. Just now An Tapirang was talking to this communicator!

An Tapirang's expression changed drastically, and he looked towards the ground fiercely. The quantum cube that was supposed to be suspended has disappeared, and the shadows under the light are distorted, rushing over like tentacles.

"Damn it! Hoshimi Hitomi, just wait for me!" He cursed angrily and rushed forward. Before the shadow could pounce, he broke the string hanging around the dummy's neck and took away the promised reward. The Millennium Key - Hoshimi Hitomi was really shocked that Hoshimi Hitomi didn't break the contract. Then, he grabbed the wall of the alley with a single movement, climbed over the wall, and escaped.

But this was not the end. The gang members who had been ambushing outside for a long time seemed to have seen the black man's note, with red eyes and screams to empty their magazines.

Anbailiang, who managed to escape with great difficulty thanks to the power of darkness, was then handcuffed as a gang member by Shinjoko who arrived. Moreover, the cops who came were not criminal police officers, but TM military police, each armed with a submachine gun. Even if he is a great evil god, he would not dare to make a mistake even if his tapir-like body was pointed at by more than a dozen submachine guns. He behaves like a law-abiding citizen.

After that, it took a lot of time to clear the suspicion. After being admitted to the detention center, Anbailiang was almost poked in a bad place by the black uncle while he was sleeping. He hated Hoshimi Hitomi to the bone, which is another story.

…

Move the timeline back. While Anbailiang was staring at the dummy, Hoshimi Hitomi, who was hiding in the shadow prison, had obtained the golden quantum cube. The cube, known as the "eighth millennium item", showed no resistance in Hoshimi Hitomi's hands. It just emitted a soft light, like a super expensive decoration.

"This is... the quantum cube..." Hoshimi Hitomi, who returned to the private office after several jumps in the shadow prison, looked at the cube in his hand, rigorously and picky, "I heard that it is a prop that can travel through dimensions. How should I use it?"

"Hmm... quite beautiful." Xiaomi, a capable workplace woman dressed in a professional OL and wearing glasses, reached out to catch the Quantum Cube handed over by Hitomi Hoshimi, and casually pulled out a dozen resentful spirits from the Millennium Wheel of Wisdom to feed Yingyi. Beast, said softly, "It's somewhat similar to Sophia's power... but it's paradoxical."

Well, Xiaomi is not Hitomi Hoshimi’s secretary. The reason for dressing up like this is probably role-playing. In addition, although she is a magician, she is just a miko and is good at using magic rather than research. So I can't give any good advice.

"Bring it here!" The pink-haired girl with animal ears lying listlessly on the table became energetic and snatched the cube from Xiaomi's hand. But after playing with it for a few times, the ears pulled down and he threw it away angrily.

"I'm a technician, and I'm on the technology side. I'm not professional enough!" Kit said sarcastically.

Hitomi Hoshimi, who was sitting on the boss's chair, was enjoying Yao Guang's shoulder massage, resting her head on something soft, thinking thoughtfully: "It really needs a professional counterpart."

He tapped the desk a few times, and a dark crack appeared out of thin air. A hand engraved with a red magic circle stretched out from it, grabbed the quantum cube, and then disappeared into the other dimension. Xiaomi frowned and grabbed the negative energy escaping from the crack and threw it into the shadow prison.

"I hope there will be more scientific researchers." Xing Jiantong adjusted the position of his neck, while Yao Guang stood up proudly and showed a provocative sneer at Xiaomi.

Hey, I’m so angry, but I still have to keep smiling! Xiaomi smiled through gritted teeth.

A month has passed since the battle in the temple, and the main mission has been refreshed. It’s the same description as the Riddler. As expected, it should be related to the evil god.

[Main mission: Origin of the Beyonder. 】

[Task description: Work with your partners to overcome the final difficulty. This is not the end, but the beginning of another great journey. 】

[Task progress: 0/1]

【mission rewards:? ? ? 】

Just as Hitomi Hoshimi was pondering the riddle, there was a knock on the door.

"Buckle~Buckle~Buckle~" Three knocks, neither light nor heavy. The intensity and spacing of the knocks were perfect, showing an almost obsessive professionalism on the part of the knocker.

About 5 seconds later, the door to Hitomi Hoshimi's office was pushed open, and a 30-year-old man in a crisp suit walked in: "BOSS, it's time for your scheduled inspection."

"Yes, I understand." Xing Jiantong nodded calmly. Behind him, the dragon maid, OL Xiaomi, and pink-haired Kit have disappeared and returned to the card.

…

Walking in the clean and tidy corridor of Paratis headquarters, Hoshimi Hitomi turned her head and glanced at the secretary behind her without changing her expression. This secretary was originally Dazi's personal secretary, and his business ability can be said to be the pinnacle of the "secretary" profession. This was one of the reasons why Dazi chose him instead of the pretty girl with good eyesight. But now it's easier for him.

Hitomi Hoshimi, an Asian, can bypass the malicious intentions of the entire Western world, the bites of vulture-like capitalists, and the strict laws and unspoken rules, and directly take the Paradis Group, which is enough to shake the global economy, into his hands. Naturally, it is not just a few contracts. , a few wills can be done. There is indispensable nastiness and... supernatural power in it.

Specifically - yes, robbery, change of heart, brainwashing, mental manipulation, forced transfer, and mass arrests.

The little shrimps who have opinions directly manipulate the mind, and the big shots who have opinions directly brainwash. The capitalists who pounced on him directly robbed and arrested him, and their properties became part of Hoshimi Hitomi's huge business empire. All the senior officials within Paratis had a change of heart and forcibly transferred all their loyalty to Tatsu to Hoshimi Hitomi.

There are also some very rare and determined people, so I'm sorry. The pure gold statue Xijiayi was picked up by a homeless man. My name is Red Scarf - such iron-blooded methods allowed Hoshimi Hitomi to use just one month. Put the entire Paratis Corporation in the palm of your hand.

There is no need for a major blood change or long-term planning. With the help of supernatural power, the traces of Dazi have been completely erased, and the Paradis Group was easily transformed into the shape of Hitomi Hoshimi by Rep. The price is just to look a bit like a villain - that's not a big deal (tactical fallback).

But it took Hoshimi Hitomi a full month to get everything done. Half of the month was spent on brainwashing and mental training, and the other half was spent clarifying the list of companies under the Paratis Group, the industries and real estate involved.

Yes, the Paradis Group is too huge. From munitions, aerospace materials, cutting-edge chip technology, to civilian toothbrushes and shower gels. From Arctic scientific research stations to Antarctic scientific research stations, covering industries in all aspects of human civilization, Paradis Group is almost everywhere and making money in every industry.

Although capital has the characteristics of self-management and self-expansion, the wisdom of the immortal Dazi cannot be underestimated. Fortunately, he relied on the monkey version of the barrier provided by the system and the EX-class clairvoyance of the time traveler to perform a dimensionality reduction attack, and he managed to find a way out of death. He won't become one of the countless unlucky people who were tricked to death by Dazi.

If he followed the plot like his predecessors and went straight up, he would definitely die miserably. He is not as cool as the senior time travellers! He is just a harmless card guy who wants to score points!

"BOSS, we're here." Just as Hoshimi Tong was thinking, the secretary who was following behind reminded him and handed out a pair of glasses.

"Hmm... I was thinking about stocks, and I got a little distracted." Hoshimi Hitomi said casually, while taking the glasses and putting them on her nose very naturally. He is not short-sighted. These glasses are the key to the secret department of Paradis Company. Each pair is registered and cannot be lost. It can be said to be a more effective identity proof than an ID card.

"Ah, yes. Regarding your previous proposal of shorting the shares of the Schreider Consortium and then acquiring it - as you wish, the Schreider Consortium is already on the verge of bankruptcy. The acquisition contract has been drafted for you, you only need to fill it out If you decide on the right price and sign, the Schreider Consortium will become one of the subsidiaries of Paradis."

The secretary pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said meticulously: "I personally suggest that you hang on to Young Master Siegfried for a while. He seems to have unrealistic illusions and may raise the price."

"An old antique company sign that has not kept up with the times is worthless. Compared with the Schreider Consortium, that young Siegfried is the talent I really want to recruit." First the fingerprint lock, then the face lock, and finally the iris lock . After passing three procedures, Hoshimi Hitomi and his secretary walked into a huge facility.

In the eyes of outsiders, this is a pure white and empty room, but in the eyes of Hitomi Hoshimi and the secretary who wears special glasses, countless professionals are working and countless precision instruments are operating. This is the card design department, the top secret department newly established after Hitomi Hoshimi usurped the throne. This department is not affiliated with any executive or branch, and is directly and solely responsible to Hitomi Hoshimi.

The colors that human eyes can distinguish are limited, and in this huge facility, special instruments will emit radio waves to affect human eye nerves, identifying all originally visible light as invisible. To put it simply, it deceives the human eye and makes the brain believe that "there is nothing here." This effect can only be eliminated by wearing special glasses that neutralize the radio waves.

Hoshimi Hitomi continued to move deeper with her secretary, while constantly nodding to the staff around her: "About the Wanzhangmu Zaibatsu and the Garam Zaibatsu——"

"Yes, it has been confirmed. The Wan Zhangmu Zaibatsu was originally a puppet company that arose with the support of Paradis. The apparent CEO, Mr. Wan Zhangmu, only holds 30% of the shares. If you have any objections to him, I will immediately draft a statement ordering him to resign."

"As for the Garam Zaibatsu, it is a small chaebol that is not even as good as the Haima Company. If you plan to acquire it, I will immediately start preparing to short the stock." The secretary muttered, the Garam Zaibatsu is really small, and even if it is sold, the loss will be greater than profit. However, he is only responsible to Hoshimi Hitomi, leaving the manager and regional directors to worry about how to make money.

"Well, Wan Zhangmu, it should be his father now...I see. Don't worry about him, just let him go. As for Garam, let's just buy it." Hoshimi Hitomi decided on a big deal with just one sentence.

Is there money to be made? No one knows. Let the people below worry about this. He is only responsible for buying. Garlem is not important, and even its chairman is not important. What is important is the president's adopted son - his name is Amon!

As the helmsman of a giant enterprise that can influence the direction of the world, there are things that others "hope" he does, things that he "wants" to do, things that he "should" do, and things that he "can" do. But there are very few things that he "must" do. At present, there is only one - Xing Jiantong "must" protect the world.

"Okay, let's put those aside for now. Let me see how the card design department that swallowed up the 87 million budget has done." Xing Jiantong stretched out his hand and picked up a stack of cards from a machine full of science fiction, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

On the sign above the machine, there is an English code.

[Code——Thunder]

On the top card in Xing Jiantong's hand, the three-headed green dragon swimming in the sea of ​​thunder roared even louder than thunder.

【Thunder Dragon—Thunder Dragon】!

—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Some people may think that the real controller of the world is a "company" which is a bit low, but the East India Company is also a company. Thinking of this way, it instantly becomes more noble.

In order to be fully present in June, I still gritted my teeth and wrote this chapter. I really can't write tomorrow. There is no posting and no comments, no pictures can be inserted, and the published chapters cannot be modified. The manual review takes nearly ten hours. Who can stand this?

I will touch it for 3 days in a row, and I will update it on July 3. Thank you for your understanding and support.

Chapter 91 2 Surfing Prosecutor, resurrect! Surfing Prosecutor, resurrect! Surfing Prosecutor, resurrect!

The three-headed green dragon swimming in the sea of ​​thunder roared even louder than thunder. That is, the (not worthy of being included in the list) Thunder Dragon Brother, (under the premise that the chain is not robbed) has a very terrifying ability to blow up the field, and (the most important thing is actually) the excellent operation system of the [Thunder Dragon] field.

"It's my wife!" Hoshimi Hitomi smiled, just 3 Thunder Dragons are worth 87 million budget!

Before, when Hoshimi Hitomi and Ameruda teamed up to perform a mission, they robbed a semi-finished Thunder Dragon from Bekas's castle. Originally, he was going to do Bekas a favor and let him return a complete set of Thunder Dragons. At that time, he was still a penniless card player, and could only think of this way to achieve his goal in a roundabout way.

As a result, the plan was not as fast as the change. In just one month, he became someone that Bekas could not afford, and he could even spend 87 million to poach people directly from the International Illusion Society and Kaiba Company.

In short, the card printing in this world is not like the K·butt·blind J8 printing·brain·bitch before Hoshimi Hitomi crossed over. Designers can print it with a slap of their butts.

The card making in this world is very metaphysical, but in general, as long as the elves nod, it will be fine. For example, Lei Long, if you print it for Hoshimi Hitomi, it will be smooth and there will be no mistakes. Even Lei Long will thunder to cheer you up and urge you to gkd when he sees that you are tired.

But if you print it for others, it will be completely different: who are you sending it to? Give you face? Claw! Then a thunder will crush you and your card.

It is also worth mentioning that it seems that the existence of Lei Long has triggered some butterfly effect. A designer suddenly burst into inspiration while working and made a solar battery man.

Later, designers have made battery man-horn-shaped, rechargeable battery man, super electromagnetic volt dragon and other battery man related cards in a sleepwalking state. These battery man cards are even given special code names.

【Code——Battery】

And these cards are different from the Thunder Dragon bound to Hoshimi Hitomi. They seem to have been recognized by the elves and can be mass-produced. Therefore, Hoshimi Hitomi simply announced that Paradis Corporation entered the Duel Monster Card Production Industry and launched the pre-assembled card set "Duel Battery MAX·Battery Man". It seems to have triggered a phenomenal hot sale, and even increased the monthly financial report by 1 percentage point.

Hoshimi Hitomi is not sure how much it is, but I heard from the secretary that the sale of Battery Man alone has made the 87 million budget reported by the card design department pay back. At this point, what he regrets most is taking over Paradis Corporation. He has lost all the fun of making money, just watching a string of numbers go up by themselves! Do you know how cool this is, no, how boring it is?

Anyway... Battery Man is fine except Solar Battery Man. Hoshimi Hitomi continued to flip the cards in his hand: Ultra Thunder Dragon, he originally only had 1, and now he has 3. Then there are Thunder Dragon, Thunder Beast Dragon, Thunderbird Dragon, Thunder Dragon, and the ancestor version of 1 for 2 Thunder Dragon. Ultra Thunder Beast Thunderbird Golden Cabinet 3 each, it's a really smooth operating system, no jamming!

Hoshimi Hitomi smiled and said to the project manager beside him: "I am very satisfied with your work."

"Thank you for your recognition, Boss!" The project manager breathed a sigh of relief. The people under him are basically poached from Kaiba Company and International Illusion Agency with a salary premium of two or three times. If he can't satisfy Hoshimi Hitomi and the budget is cut, he will be torn alive!

The surrounding card designers also smiled. Who doesn't like such a high salary?

Looking around, Hoshimi's pupils contracted slightly. Among the designers present, there seems to be a huge fish!

Hoshimi Hitomi stared at the name tag on the designer's chest, with his name written in black gilt characters.

【Andre Phoenix】, Andre Phoenix.

Phoenix, also known as "Phoenix". This is a very rare surname in the West, and it has a special meaning in the world of Yu-Gi-Oh!

This Andre, who is a card designer, also has the surname "Phoenix" and has gray hair. Could he be... the father of Ed Phoenix, who has a bad record but is very popular?

Narrowing his eyes slightly, Hoshimi saw shadows surging beneath Hitomi's feet. A hollow golden lizard kept walking through the shadows, and finally disappeared into Andre's shadow. The designers here are considered to be a group of very inspired people among ordinary people, but they could only feel a little cold. They just thought that the air conditioner was turned on too much and didn't care.

"Then, the Thunder project has come to an end, and the year-end bonuses of everyone in the card design department have been doubled. Before the next project is released, you should work on your own projects." Hoshimi Hitomi said calmly with a solemn expression.

The project manager nodded in agreement and respectfully watched Hoshimi Hitomi and the secretary leave.

Next on the tour is the R\u0026D department. The top elites in all human fields are gathered here, and they are also responsible for only Hoshimi Hitomi, formerly Tatsu. Hitomi Hoshimi is planning to slowly merge the R\u0026D department and the card design department. After all, playing cards in this world = science.

After visiting various chips, aviation materials, precision machinery, and drugs under development, Hoshimi Hitomi nodded: In fact, he couldn't understand it at all, but he didn't know how to pretend to understand that he was good at it.

Previously, he announced in front of all the company's executives that he would develop a perpetual motion machine, and then Balabala talked about a lot of things like planetary particles, synchronic summons, mounted duels, duelist energy, etc., and all he got was countless looks of fools. . This destroys common sense.

In fact, Hoshimi Hitomi himself knew that it was ridiculous. In his original world, it was as if he could generate energy out of nothing just by playing poker. Anyone who has received nine years of compulsory education doesn’t believe it, let alone elites from all walks of life.

There is nothing Hoshimi Hitomi can do. Dr. Fudo, who invented the perpetual motion machine, is not even Mi Aoko now. But it doesn't matter, he has a "good thing" in his hand that can be called an encyclopedia of human history. If he uses it well, he can jump through levels - hey, why do you say it again?

"Then, let me see that project!" Hoshimi Hitomi said solemnly.

"Yes, please look -" the project manager of virtual information technology held a device that looked like VR glasses, "Code - L`ink VRins!"

Yes, there was no sudden jump to the world line or anything. L`ink Vrains (hereinafter referred to as LV), this is exactly what Alai was planning during the previous Naiya chapter. The Riddler didn't reveal the matter until Hitomi Hoshimi took complete control of Paradis Company.

First, the topology tampering infection dragon sneaked into the local area network inside the airship, and then took the opportunity to invade Nayana's isolated computer world and tampered with the highest authority. Then he opened the door to tamper with a lot of internal data - this is the origin of Zhan Ji, Code Language Fist and Fire Spirit Star.

Then, through the clone summoned by Hitomi Hoshimi in the computer world, part of the power from the body outside the world came to open the channel between the isolated small world and the outside world. After that comes destruction \u0026 reinvention.
