"Give me the emotion that makes you cry, and I'll give you money."
Eighteen-year-old Bai Xun took his mother's critical illness notice and walked into a pawn shop that did not accept gold and silver but could pawn emotions.
Mother is in urgent need of money to save her life! Bai Xun stood in front of the counter and pawned all his sadness, fear, and ability to shed tears in exchange for ten million.
At the moment when his emotions were stripped away, Bai Xun felt as if his heart had been uprooted.
Emotion Bank: Every emotion that is pawned will be transformed into a human form, trapped in a bottle in the attic, waiting day and night for the original owner to redeem it.
Bai Xun saw a seven or eight-year-old boy there, squatting on the shelf and crying silently. That boy had a face exactly like his.
I'm crying in the attic. The mother's life was saved. And he became a man with a broken heart.
In order to redeem everything he had lost, Bai Xun began to perform S-level tasks at the pawnshop:
The unfinished building that hanged 32 people in ten years...
Forgotten nursing home…
The remains of cyberbullying victims…
The underground emotional black market…
Unmarked Cemetery…
Prisoners of time…
Each mission completed will result in large cash rewards and unlocked abilities.
When his competitor Song Zhihuan, the owner of Guixu Pawn Shop, appeared in front of him, Bai Xun knew that from the day he stepped into the pawn shop, he had been involved in the succession battle for the next shopkeeper.
The first thing the new shopkeeper did when he took office was to redeem himself. Bai Xun stepped onto the attic and said to eight-year-old Bai Xun, "I'm here, come home with me." Emotions entered the body, and Bai Xun was finally complete.
"Your calmness is the most thorough I have ever seen, so your attachment must be worth more than everyone else combined."
