Chapter 834: A Billionaire Who Plays With Trash

Ever since Lin Sanjiu evolved, she had destroyed a number of buildings, yet this was her first time reconstructing one.

Worse still, reconstruction was far more difficult than she expected, especially when she realized there was a time limit to the [Power Of Word Picture]. Every 30 minutes, she had to repeat the description of the building again to prevent it from returning to ruins. However, the silver lining was that there was no restriction using this Special Item, and there was no lag time between each activation. She wondered if she could use the Special Item to make a spaceship.

If Yu Yuan was still alive, then he could take Exodus with him…

“Can you stop pacing around?” Mrs. Manas asked again, “You connected half of the floor and made two walls. Then? What is next?”

“Good question.” Lin Sanjiu stood in the corner and rubbed her temples. Her head was still hurting from the incident earlier on. “Let me think…”

Right now, this dilapidated and empty building looked just like a half-finished model.

Without a roof, there were only two walls, and half of the building had been eroded by nature. Since she could tell how large the building was, she could not estimate the location of the door.

However, on second thought, could she really go out once she found the door?

She stood on the concrete slab for a while. Confusion was written on her face and her brows were knitted together. After clearing up the grass and vines and patching up the concrete slabs, a mass of flotsam and jetsam began to show up.

She never expected to see so much rubbish here.

“What the hell did they use this building for?” she mumbled, “There is no furniture, yet it covers so large an area…”

Lin Sanjiu reached out for several wooden planks and rusty steel bars next to her and pushed them aside. These two things contributed the most to the amount of rubbish here as she would find one or two scattered on the ground or leaning on the wall every time she moved forward. As several screws fell to the ground with a jangling note, she yanked her arm back and pulled a plastic bag out from a pile of rubble. She tapped the plastic bag several times and stirred up puffs of dust. Then, something fell out of the bag.

It was a bundle of clothes.

Lin Sanjiu was able to recognize them at first glance even though they had been badly eroded by time. These hoodies were once brand new and had never been worn before. They shared the same size and style, and there were six of them. They were tied up neatly in a stack by a rope, and it seemed to Lin Sanjiu that they were inventory from a clothing store.

“Congratulations on unlocking clue no. 2,” the pocket dimension’s voice rang out suddenly as if it had been waiting for this moment to come. “The player is required to look for clues from the pile of rubbish.”

Compared to the voice that had pulled her hair earlier on, this voice sounded so much more pleasant.

“Hold on a sec…” Suddenly, Lin Sanjiu realized something. “This pocket dimension…Could it be…”

“Let’s go look for the clue first.” Mrs. Manas cut into her thoughts, “We’ll get back to that after we’ve gotten out of here.”

Sighing, Lin Sanjiu flung the roll of hoodies to one side and walked towards the mass of rubbish on the ground. She had no idea why, but she felt the rubbish had grown after unlocking the second clue.

By the time she threw the last screw onto the ground, she was covered in dust from head to toe. She had been swimming in the sea of garbage and waste for the entire afternoon. There was no clean spot on her body and she was caked with a thick layer of black dirt and sweat.

“I don’t know what I bought Exodus for,” she grumbled, throwing herself on the ground, “Even though I own a spaceship, I still have to waste my time here rummaging through garbage to look for a clue.”

“I am a teacher of the School of Higher Consciousness, yet here I am, helping you to sort out the garbage. I haven’t said anything yet, so what do you have to complain about?” Mrs. Manas mumbled grumpily.

“Speaking of which, what do you have over there?”

Grumpily, Mrs. Manas projected the results of her sorting in her mind.

Plank and wood chunk: 79 pieces in total. All different in size but have the same texture. Judging from a few rather complete specimens, these rectangular planks are of the same specification and share the same purpose of use.

Iron frames and steel bars: Number unknown. There are holes in some of the steel bars and iron frames. It seems like they could be fit together into a larger frame.

Screw: There is no point in sorting this out. As for its purpose of use, please refer to the above.

“I have gone through so much stuff, and you’ve only sorted three things out? You are clearly slacking,” Lin Sanjiu said.

“There is so much rubbish and they are all eyesores. It’s just normal for me to get upset,” Mrs. Manas countered, “Besides, these are your innermost thoughts, so don’t blame me.”

“Alright, alright, keep going.”

Clothes: 25 pieces. Five pieces in a bundle which makes it five bundles in total. Each bundle accounts for one size. All are brand new and the tags are still intact.

Glass fragments: Six pieces. Very large in size.

A push-pull handle with a marred surface. Considering its size, it should be the handle of a window.

“Are you still listening?” Mrs. Manas suddenly stopped and asked.

Right now, Lin Sanjiu was staring at the plank and the steel bar in her hand. She gave an indifferent grunt before saying, “I think…I have an idea of the use of this building.”

After several minutes worth of wrecking her brains for more description, the building was no longer empty. Row after row of racks rose from the ground and shrouded the sun. The bundles of cloth were placed neatly on every level of the rack.

“This is a warehouse.” Lin Sanjiu let out a sigh. “A warehouse used to store clothes.”

Strangely, as a Special Item that emphasized the importance of descriptions, its own description was severely lacking, especially in regards to usage restriction. There were many subtle restrictions that could only be understood when she used the Special Item. For example, even though she was certain that the plank and the steel bars were part of the racks, it still could not be considered as a hard fact.

Therefore, she had no other choice but to fit the plank and the steel bars together into a rack with her own hands before making them stand up using the [Power of Word Picture]. She repeated the same procedure for the rest of the racks, and the effect was satisfying. The racks looked new even though she did not know what was the use of them appearing new or old.

“Well, just take it as practice.”

Lin Sanjiu comforted herself. She began to walk in between the racks and her fingers hopped from one item to the others. Her shadow was long behind her which indicated that the sun was going down in the west. She had spent five hours doing all of this, yet it did not give her any clue about how to get out.

“Do you still have other things on the list?”

Mrs. Manas did not reply instantly. It took her several beats before she began speaking, “There is one which particularly stands out from other rubbish. It’s a pile of grayish-white pieces. I’m pretty curious about them, so I checked them out further. Guess what I found?”

“Just spill the beans.”

“The reason I’m so curious about it is that it looks familiar,” Mrs. Manas continued, “So, I put them together.” Mrs. Manas paused and sighed. “It’s a bone.”

Lin Sanjiu was stunned.

“Judging from the size of the bone, it could be the bone of a large mammal or human bones,” Mrs. Manas thought for a moment before adding, “Considering that there are more humans than cows, I suppose it should be the latter.”
