The cheapest costs 3,000? Chen Ge coughed, and his hand moved involuntarily to the 20,000 or so in his backpack. He uttered in a calm voice, “Money is not a problem, but the new scenario will be open in a few days; I need the mannequins to be finished soon. You said that you don’t have enough employees to rush the order, but do you have the materials here?”

“I do.” The boss did not know why Chen Ge would suddenly ask that. “If you give us a few more days, I’m sure you’ll be satisfied with the result.”

“The Haunted House will open the new scenario for visitation the day after tomorrow; there can be no delay.”

“We’re not doing so well; did you not see the sign in the window? Before this, I was only responsible for the designs, and the workers would handle the rest. But since there have been no large orders, I sent them all away to save money.” The boss also did not want to give up on Chen Ge’s order so easily. “How about this, I will call the workers tonight, and I will have them rush the order for you in a week?”

“A week is still too long; I need them the day after tomorrow.”

The boss sighed helplessly. “Even if we work at full speed, I can only give you three or four mannequins the day after tomorrow.”

“You have enough materials but not the workers.” Chen Ge put down his backpack. “How about this, lend your workshop to me for twenty-four hours? You only need to prepare the materials for me.”

“Huh?”

As the conversation continued, it started to head down a weird direction. The boss did not quite react to it yet, “Then what shall I do?”

“Just stand to the side and watch.” Chen Ge moved his fingers and looked around the space. “After all, it’s not like you have other customers. After the place is sold, the stored materials will be disposed of or sold at a low price. Since that’s the case, you might as well lease the place to me for a day. Don’t worry, I will purchase the materials at market price.”

The man had a point, but something felt off! The boss thought about it and realized he had nothing to lose. Looking at the excited Chen Ge, he nodded with difficulty. “Alright, but you have to give me 10,000 as deposit. I’ll remove the material price from the deposit, and I’ll return the rest when you’re finished.”

“You have a deal.”

After paying the boss, Chen Ge entered the work space. The place was huge, and multiple tools covered the floor.

“You sure you want to do this yourself?” The boss was still hesitant. “If you need it, I can help. After all, I’m free.”

“Then, I shall thank you in advanced.” Chen Ge was familiar with the tools because he had spent his internship at a toy factory. He took a tour, and after a plan formed in his mind, he pulled out his phone to call Inspector Lee.

“Uncle Lee, I have a favor to ask; it’s related to Mu Yang High School.”

“The station has already closed the case. Why are you still so hung up over Mu Yang High School?” Every time Inspector Lee answered Chen Ge’s call, his heart would quiver in worry, afraid that he might hear some bad news.

“It’s not related to the case, I just want to…”
