Another World: That's too much. I have to start from scratch to get the contribution value.

Chapter 270 Selected Again

Everyone on the platform fell silent, and dead silence spread in the air.

"Today's first warrior is..."

Host Xiaomei smiled sweetly at the camera, her wavy hair falling softly as she turned her head, but her hands kept stirring in the lottery bucket.

Everyone's heartstrings were stretched to the limit, so tight that it seemed like they would snap in the next second.

- Don't pick me! Don't pick me!

——Hit someone else!

“The results are out!!”

Suddenly, Xiaomei pinched the lottery card between her fingers and pulled her hand out!

Everyone was shocked, and one or two sobbing sounds were faintly heard in the dark corner.

"That's the one! Let me see what his name is—"

Host Xiaomei wanted to turn the card over - grandma tightly grasped Anjiu's hand, her palm was cold, Anjiu put his arm around her shoulders and held her in his arms, his heart pounding in his chest.

"Oh my God." Host Xiaomei's eyes showed a pitiful look, and a perfect apologetic smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

“It’s such a bad draw,” she said.

"I actually drew three cards."

"But it doesn't matter, just consider it as speeding up the process."

"Now let me announce their names. The first one is..."

It was like being on a speeding roller coaster, and everyone at the scene felt dizzy and their stomachs were churning.

Every time a name was heard, one person fainted and a group of people cheered.

At this time, the staff immediately rushed out, twisted the arm of the selected person, and forcibly brought him to the front.

"No! I won't go!"

"Let me go! Why did you choose me?"

"Manager Yang, Manager Yang! Please give me a chance to live. I will work like a slave for you from now on!"

"Please, give it another shot!"

The noise was not stopped until the staff stuffed a dirty rag into his mouth.

And from beginning to end, Manager Yang never even looked at him.

In this chaos, grandma's hands clenched - relaxed - clenched again...

Host Xiaomei continued with the process, announcing the names one by one.

She turned over the last card in her hand and pointed it towards the camera. The girl on the card had her eyes wide open and was looking ahead in fear.

"The last warrior, Anjiu."

"No!"

When she heard her granddaughter's name, the grandmother's body stiffened, and she fell down limply with her eyes rolled back.

"grandmother!!"

Anjiu hugged her waist and tried to wake her up.

The people nearby knew that she was the chosen one, and they all made way, forming a vacuum zone around them, watching silently with pity, relief, or numbness.

"Give way! Give way, everyone!"

The staff behind Manager Yang came out again and squeezed through the crowd towards this side.

Anjiu looked at them and patted his grandmother's face anxiously, "Wake up! I have something to tell you!"

Pu Huai quickly approached, took the grandmother from her hands, pinched her philtrum, and forcibly woke her up.

Grandma took a deep breath as if she came back to life, and her eyes slowly opened, filled with tears.

She stood up, hugged Anjiu tightly, and cried out in grief:

"My little wine! How come you were chosen again? Grandma doesn't want you to go!"

The crying was so sad that Anjiu felt uncomfortable. She could have followed them secretly, but she was unlucky and was picked, making her grandmother worry in vain.

But it has already happened, crying is of no use.

She held her grandmother's arm tightly, "Grandma, listen to me! Go home now, lock the door, don't go out for a few days, and wait for me to come back!"

Fortunately, there was enough food and water for her at home.

As long as grandma stays at home and doesn't go out, she will have one less worry in another world.

Grandma nodded with tears in her eyes, held her face and looked at it carefully, imprinting her appearance deeply in her mind.

"Be careful when you go there, and make sure you come back alive. I'll be waiting for you at home..."

The staff rushed over, twisted Anjiu's arms, and forcibly separated her from her grandmother.

"Pu Huai, Pu Huai!" An Jiu turned around and called his name, "Can you come downstairs with me? I need you to do me a favor!"

"it is good."

Pu Huai looked around and set his sights on the new neighbor who had moved in with two children. He picked up the grandmother and walked over to put her next to her.

"Please take Grandma An home later. I'll be back soon."

“…I understand.”

The woman struggled to put the child down in her arms and supported Grandma An's arm.

Although she had just moved in, she knew that he was a captain and if she could help him, she might get a job in the future. Moreover, this old lady had helped her, so she felt closer to her than other strangers.

"Don't worry, she will come back."

She wanted to comfort the old man, but she didn't quite believe what she was saying.

Especially since she has children, she can feel even more the pain of watching her own flesh and blood embark on a journey of no return but being unable to do anything.

Afraid of seeing the tears in Grandma An's eyes, she turned her head and looked at Captain Pu Huaipu who was walking through the crowd and whispering to Manager Yang.

"Since that's the case," Manager Yang maintained his usual smile, "I will naturally give Captain Pu some leeway, but don't waste time, otherwise I won't be able to explain this to the higher-ups."

"Of course, don't worry about that."

Pu Huai walked around the platform and stood next to Anjiu.

To avoid being overheard by others, he bent down and lowered his head, shortening the distance between them, and asked, "What do you need me to do?"

An Jiu said briefly: "There is a space for rent in the supermarket. I want you to buy me a 3m space. I want to stock up more things when I go to the other world this time."

Pu Huai understood what she meant.

He walked towards Administrator Yang again.

After a moment, he stood by the elevator and waved to her.

Anjiu looked back at the staff and saw that they had no intention of stopping him, so he left the team and got off the elevator first in full view of everyone.

"The secondary space needs to be bound to your identity when you purchase it, and you must be on site."

In the elevator, Pu Huai explained.

He glanced at Anjiu and said, "Also, I have agreed with Manager Yang that after the purchase, I will send you to the entrance, and you will have to return to the team when they arrive on the first floor."

"Well, I understand," Anjiu expressed his gratitude sincerely, "I am already very grateful that you brought me out to buy a secondary space."

He is just a captain, how can he interfere in official affairs? It is not easy to achieve this level.

The two said nothing more.

Looking through the gaps in the elevator grille, one can see the dark masses of heads overhead on every floor, the people on the platform representing the exercise of official power, and the dejected 'lucky ones' in the back row.

The atmosphere downstairs was a little better, with balloons, ribbons, and spray flowers, making it feel like Chinese New Year.

In the big supermarket on the first floor, the secondary space sales area, which was rarely visited in the past, was unusually busy, with people lining up in front of the counter.

As soon as they opened their mouth, they asked for 3 m and weekly rent, and surrounded the salesperson, asking her to activate and bind the information as soon as possible.
