Chapter 680: Chapter 0680: Prize Canceled

"I don’t care, I want to complain about them."

Li Xiaoli clenched her fist and shouted fiercely, "If they didn’t place the big Benz in the treasure area, it’s consumer fraud, and I will complain about them."

Tang Ming and the others looked helpless, but this was definitely not a reason for complaint; the other party could simply claim they didn’t find the key.

As they followed Xiao Bai Bai and had just left Opportunity Castle, the plump manager along with a group of staff members came up to meet them.

"Congratulations on your return from the treasure hunt." The plump manager greeted them warmly.

"What’s going on?"

Tang Ming and the others were all stunned.

"Let me introduce myself. I am Pang Da, the person in charge and the manager of Opportunity Castle."

Pang Da, with warmth, looked at Tang Ming and the others and said emotionally, "You are the first group of players who have found so many treasures since our opening. According to the rules, you all must take a photo with your spoils to mark the occasion."

"I want to..."

Li Xiaoli discontentedly tried to speak.

"Don’t strike a smiling face, Li Xiaoli stop causing trouble."

Liu Mengting quickly grabbed Li Xiaoli, solemnly warning her.

Then Pang Da instructed the staff to take photos of Liu Mengting and the others, capturing images of the many treasures they had found, to later hang on the wall for promotion.

Tang Ming was not interested in the photo, so he did not participate, and he also didn’t want his photo hung up on the wall.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please hand over the treasures you found to our staff temporarily; we will wrap each gift and put on the logo of Opportunity Castle as a promotional method."

After the photo session, Pang Da pointed to a pile of prepared boxes and explained.

Xia Wei’er and Liu Mengting had no objections, Li Xiaoli was still puckering her lips discontentedly, but since things had come to this, it wasn’t appropriate for her to throw a tantrum, yet not finding the big Benz really annoyed her.

After Tang Ming and the others handed over all the gifts, they were placed in the reception area to wait.

Half an hour later, the staff left, but no one took care of them.

"It’s already dark, and we still have to go back to prepare for tomorrow’s final exams, can we go now?"

Xia Wei’er anxiously looked at the time.

"It should be about time, I’ll go ask."

Liu Mengting slightly furrowed her brow, stood up, walked to the front desk, and asked the Pang manager sitting at the computer, "Manager Pang, it’s been half an hour, can we have our prizes now? We need to leave."

"What prizes?"

Manager Pang looked up blankly at Liu Mengting.

"The treasures we found inside."

Liu Mengting was stunned.

"Sorry, I don’t know what you’re talking about? It seems you didn’t find anything, and now you can leave."

Manager Pang suddenly smiled blandly, saying lightly.

"What?"

Liu Mengting’s eyes widened, she had never dreamed it would turn out like this.

"Meng Ting sister, what’s wrong?"

Hearing Liu Mengting’s outcry, Li Xiaoli asked in confusion.

"He said we didn’t find anything, and they won’t give us the prizes."

Liu Mengting responded with a gloomy face.

"Damn it."

Upon hearing this, Li Xiaoli, already furious, stormed to the reception desk, "On what basis aren’t you giving us the reward? We found those inside. Aren’t you just playing tricks, you know?"

Tang Ming, with furrowed brows, walked to the front desk with Xia Wei’er, never expecting such a situation.

"Miss, you need to be responsible for your words. Here at Chance Castle, we always put integrity first. Look at the wall of photos. All players who found prizes took a group photo. We absolutely do not play tricks," Pang Da pointed to the photo wall, saying seriously.

"Although you are our guests, you really didn’t find anything. I truly can’t reward you."

"You, you’re clearly trying to cheat us. When we came out, we were holding the prize for a photo. How can you say we found nothing?"

Li Xiaoli glared at Pang Da, demanding angrily.

"What photo? I wasn’t aware of that?"

Pang Da looked bewildered, turning to his staff with doubts: "Did you see them take a group photo? Did you see them come out with prizes?"

The employees shook their heads repeatedly. At times like this, they must back up their boss, or they could lose their jobs.

"I, I want to file a complaint against you."

Li Xiaoli trembled with anger. It was the first time she had been so cheated. Not finding the Mercedes was one thing, but being tricked was another.

"Whatever, we operate legally here, and everything is done by the rules. Go ahead and complain if you want," Pang Da said indifferently, smiling without caring about Li Xiaoli’s threats.

"Tang Ming..."

Liu Mengting looked at Tang Ming, utterly confused.

"Manager Pang, right?"

Tang Ming smiled at Manager Pang and asked coldly, "Can you be responsible for what you just said?"

"Of course, I can be responsible for what I said."

Pang Da smiled faintly, confident he could handle these students.

"Very well."

Tang Ming took out his phone, opened the voice recorder, and had recorded everything Pang Da had just said.

Pang Da’s expression changed slightly. After listening for a while and not hearing the conversation of Tang Ming’s group as they came out of the castle, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Recording what I said is useless. I am responsible for what I say, and you didn’t find any prize. That’s the fact."

"Is that so? Then how do you explain this video?"

Tang Ming opened a video showing Liu Mengting and others posing with the prize, including scenes of Pang Da being hospitable.

"You recorded it?"

Pang Da’s face turned pale, realizing Tang Ming had such evidence, which was highly disadvantageous for him.

"I wanted to keep a souvenir of the fun my friends had at Chance Castle. I didn’t expect this to happen. It turns out to be good evidence. How will you explain this?"

Tang Ming put away his phone and calmly looked at Pang Da.

Pang Da’s expression fluctuated, and then he suddenly laughed, "I really underestimated you. But it doesn’t matter, I’ll correct what I’ve said now. You are suspected of cheating. All the prizes you found are invalid."

"You’re full of shit."

Li Xiaoli couldn’t hold back her anger anymore: "First you say we found nothing, then you say we cheated. Your constantly changing story is nothing but fraud. Do you believe I’ll call the police?"

"No, please don’t call the police."

Tang Ming quickly stopped Li Xiaoli. If Lin Xue came, things could become even more complicated. Everything was under his control now, so there was no need to trouble the policewoman.

"Look, you were able to find the prize only because you used this white pet to cheat."

Pang Da opened a surveillance video showing Li Xiaoli and others following a little white creature and finding the treasure, saying calmly: "We have rules here. Guests are not allowed to use pets to hunt for treasure. This behavior is already a violation."
