Shopkeeper's friend
While driving home from work, he noticed a sign promising him great riches. He walked to the place of the sign and saw a shop. The shopkeeper is beautiful. The shopkeeper promises the player great riches, just as the sign said. The shopkeeper has a few cards on his stall. The player chooses to buy the cheapest one. It acts as a key to one of the shopkeeper's friend's places. Where does it go?
Now, the player is at the shop.
What do you mean figure it out yourself?
I can't reveal the location. It's your job!
Wait what?! Can you at least give me a hint?
Look at the back of the key!
What back of the key? Yk what, I'll look at it at home.
The player goes to drive home. He arrives.
OK, now to check the back of the key.
The key says: Twenty five, thirteen, twenty five quarter north. Fifty one, thirty three, fourty four, nine tenths east.
Sounds like a GPS code to me!
The player dials his friend.
Bro... I just bought the cheapest card at that guy's store. He said it was a magic key that led somewhere. The back of the key says "Twenty five, thirteen, twenty five quarter north. Fifty one, thirty three, fourty four, nine tenths east."
Sounds like a GPS code.
EXACTLY!
25°13'25¼" N, 51°33'44.9" E. Where does it lead?
I don't know. All I know is that this riddle is too easy!!!
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha! Ikr? Now seriously, where does it lead?
Do you got your computer on you?
IT'S A LAPTOP!
A computer is a laptop!
NO! THEY'RE DIFFERENT!!!
Just look it up.
Oh! Just 1 mile from the office you're in!
Lemme look that up real quick...
Later...
You're right!
Kay, see you later. Thanks for the help!
Anytime!
The player gets back in his car. He drives to the coordinates.
So this is where the shopkeeper said his friend's place was? OK...
The player inserts the card key thing into the lock. It opens!
The shopkeeper's friend notices the player.
WHAT DO YOU WANT? OR GET OUT OF HERE!!!!
AAAAAH! Calm down there! Some shopkeeper led me here!
Oh, you bought a card from my friend? Where?
The player shows his card.
Follow me. This is protocol!
Where to?
You'll see!
The player follows the shopkeeper's friend.
They see a lab.
Why does it seem like a lab?
You have card #1, right?
I SAID WHY DOES IT LOOK LIKE A LAB?!
Woah, woah, woah... calm down there. It's actually a lab.
Oh... yeah. And I do have card 1.
That's why my friend at the shop brought you here.
So what is it?
I got a thing which tricks your boss into giving you a raise!
A RAISE? HOW do you such thing?
So, I have access to his brain through this machine. It's called Neuralink.
The shopkeeper's friend shows Neuralink.
OK, what next?
Neuralink also can modify his neurons into thinking you did very well.
OK?
Which by common sense, gives you a raise!!
Wow!!!
It requires card #1 to work, I'm afraid.
And will you be charging me for that Neuralink thingy?
WHY WOULDN'T I?
OK, so how much does it cost?
10 points.
Cheap, yeah? But unfortunately, the price goes up every use of Neuralink.
Aw man... but just curious. Can I use this thing many, many times?
Yeah!
OK then, let's see if it works!
The player pays the 20 points.
You can go home now, this process takes long.
Why?
That's how it is! Goodbye!
Bye, I'll tell you if it works!
See-ya!
The player leaves the shopkeeper's friend's house.
Back in the lab, the shopkeeper activates Neuralink. It finishes the next morning.
At the player's house the next day... the player wakes up.
Now let's go to work and see if that guy was right!
He does his morning routine and arrives to the office. At the end of work...
Hey, can I have you for a second?
*loud breathing* Uh-oh... am I in trouble?
No, you ain't in trouble... no worries!
Ah — phew, so what is it now, Sir?
OK, I was gonna to say is that you did so well at your first day of work yesterday.
Yeah, so what?
So you get a raise!!!
WHAT?!!
It worked!!!1!1!
Goodbye, Sir.
See you tomorrow!
The player goes to his car and calls the shopkeeper's friend.
Bro! Neuralink really worked!
I knew it! And also, remember the price goes up every time!
Sure thing, bye bye!
See-ya!
The player hangs up.
I'M RICH!
What will he do next? Find out next time!
