"...I surrender!"

The Female Ghost's voice was aggrieved. "I used to be human too. I just had a heart condition and accidentally passed away while shopping at the shopping mall that day. After I woke up, I became a Ghost... You can't silence me."

"Of course, we won't silence you." Amamiya Natsuki looked at the pink-haired girl. "But which law in the world states that eliminating Ghosts is an illegal act?"

"Of course not, eliminating Ghosts is doing good for the people." Fujiwara Chika put her hands on her hips, raising her chin. "Unless you tell us how to leave the shopping mall."

"I really don't know." The Female Ghost was even more aggrieved. "But I know the approximate locations of other monsters in the shopping mall, and I can take you there. Besides the ones in the Corridor, there are also monsters that don't like to move."

Kitagawa Marin remembered the two mannequin models in the clothing store and said with lingering fear,

"What if it's a trap and you're intentionally deceiving us?"

At this moment, a faint voice sounded.

Shinomiya Kaguya crossed her right arm over her chest, propping her chin with her left hand, and said softly,

"Someone having a heart attack and dying in the shopping mall is such an important event that there must be a record of it. As long as we draw your appearance, it will be easy to find out your identity in reality... Although you've become a Ghost, you still have family and friends, right?"

The Female Ghost shivered.

So, so scary!

She's so beautiful, yet she immediately threatens others' families, and her eyes are so cold!

Exploited by her Boss while alive, and after death, she became a Ghost and is still being exploited and oppressed. She's in despair. This cruel world should just be destroyed quickly!

Amamiya Natsuki took a deep breath: "As expected of a capitalist Young Lady."

A Ghost?

Just an object of exploitation, that's all.

"Um..." Fujiwara Chika protested softly, "Kaguya-chan, Miss Ghost is already very pitiful, don't threaten her family, okay?"

"What are you thinking?!" Shinomiya Kaguya clenched her pink fists in anger and couldn't help but shout, "I mean, sign an agreement with Miss Ghost to help out in the shopping mall. When the game is cleared, I can transfer one million yen as compensation to Miss Ghost's family through a reasonable and natural method."

For capitalists, problems that can be solved with money are not problems.

Threatening the other party with their family?

Foolish.

Oppression and coercion only lead to resistance. A qualified capitalist should think about how to make the other party willingly work for them.

In this world, self-interest is the most solid thing, followed by kinship.

When the two combine...

Even a Ghost will submit to capital.

"I agree!" Miss Ghost's eyes sparkled, and her demeanor brightened. "One million yen, really? You're not lying to me?"

Shinomiya Kaguya held up her tablet and wristband: "Everything was prepared by me in advance. Please don't worry about the financial aspect."

Hayasaka Ai: "..."

I was the one who prepared it, though.

From 7:30 to 9:00, I worked hard for over an hour to place the 'toolbox' in every corner of the shopping mall. You were still relaxing in the villa, taking a bath, right?

At this moment, Amamiya Natsuki silently released Miss Ghost.

Miss Ghost, who had already fallen for the money, probably wouldn't run even if he let her go.

That was indeed the case.

"Please command me!" Miss Ghost bowed ninety degrees, her corporate slave posture perfectly standard. "From now on, whatever you tell me to do, I'll do!"

"It's a collaboration." Shinomiya Kaguya corrected, "Then, happy collaboration."

What is exploitation and oppression?

Mutual benefit and win-win cooperation are the correct ways for capitalists to operate.

"Wait, she betrayed us so quickly." Kitagawa Marin put her right hand on her hip and covered her forehead with her left hand. "Is this what they mean by 'money makes the Ghost go round'?"

"She's already a Ghost, yet she still has to work hard." Fujiwara Chika couldn't help but say, "What happened to the Ghost not bowing for five pecks of rice?"

That's because they haven't truly experienced the harsh realities of society.

The deal was struck, both parties got what they needed, and everyone was happy.

"To the second floor." Amamiya Natsuki quickly said, "Catch that bear for research."

Miss Ghost volunteered: "Let me go ahead and scout."

"..."

They passed through the fire escape without incident and arrived on the second floor. Turning a corner, a human-sized bear plushie appeared before them.

This plush bear was missing an ear, and its eyes glowed with a faint red light. It was aimlessly wandering around, and upon seeing the group, it immediately rushed towards them.

Fujiwara Chika pointed her finger: "Don, the Outlaw!"

"...Don is here."

Amamiya Natsuki stepped forward, dodged the plush bear's claws, and grabbed it.

The Seize and Eliminate Evil combo skill successfully triggered, and a prompt quickly appeared.

This is a plush bear with a dream, attempting to create a midnight harem.

Trigger Rule: The bear is so cute, how could you turn and run?

Several girls gathered around and began to examine it.

"It's missing an ear, and the cotton inside is showing."

"It looks a bit tattered, and there's a lot of dust on it."

"It doesn't seem to be able to talk, unlike Miss Ghost."

"...It's a toy, and I'm a Ghost, of course we're different!"

After some examination, they found no explanation for why the plush bear could move.

"Hmm?" Shinomiya Kaguya's delicate eyebrows twitched slightly. She suddenly noticed, "There seems to be something inside the plush bear's mouth."

Amamiya Natsuki pried open the plush bear's mouth and found a object with a slightly greenish-black color inside.

"What is this?"

"I don't know."

"The size and shape look like... a coin?"

"Let's go down first."

"..."

Amamiya Natsuki dragged the plush bear back to the first floor lobby, went to the turnstile at the cashier, and pushed the plush bear forward.

The plush bear easily passed through the invisible air wall, wobbled on the ground, and then lunged back towards the group.

Slap.

Amamiya Natsuki reached out and grabbed the plush bear."It seems it has no problem getting in and out." Shinomiya Kaguya wrapped her right arm around her chest, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, thinking of a possibility, "...Could the way to pass be for us to put on doll costumes and pretend to be monsters to sneak through?"
