Xiao Mu waved his hand, signaling the skinny man to move away.
The skinny man looked displeased, angrily shouting, "If you don't buy from me, you'll still have to buy at the ticket office. Without a ticket, no one can enter the archives."
Xiao Mu ignored him and continued walking towards the archives with the honest man.
Outside the archives' doors, they were stopped. The guard told them to buy tickets before coming back.
The ticket booth was right at the entrance. When they inquired there, it was as the skinny man said—all tickets for the next ten days were sold out.
"Need a ticket? Tickets for today, ten Energy Fruits each." A scalper saw Xiao Mu and the honest man lingering at the ticket booth and slowly approached, offering them tickets.
"How about eight each?" The honest man tried to haggle.
"If it's too expensive, then don't buy." The dark-skinned man spoke roughly.
