Chapter 96 The Bottle Picking Game
During the last Moon Festival, Casey faced punishment.
This time, all the members of the dance club would participate in the bottle picking game to help Casey secure first place and use the medal to lift her punishment.
However, they were not the only ones interested in the medal.
The senior from the tennis club who had previously helped Violeta investigate backend data also had her eyes on the medal.
The reason was that her boyfriend also needed to remove his punishment.
Having previously assisted Violeta, the senior now sought Violeta’s help to participate in the game and pick bottles together.
The
more people picking bottles, the higher the chances of winning.
Even though Violeta and the senior were not in the same club, Violeta decided to participate because the senior had aided her before.
The members of the dance club somehow discovered that Violeta would also be participating in the
game.
They were determined to surpass Violeta!
The afternoon activities commenced.
Many small stalls were neatly set up in the open space downstairs.
The stalls offered various items for exchange.
It resembled a small market, and soon a crowd gathered around the stalls.
Some people even held books or figurines in their hands…
After the stalls were set up, registration for the bottle picking game began.
Violeta and Kaylee went to the registration area together and were assigned to the senior’s group.
While filling out the registration form, a large group of people from the dance club approached them.
The student council members in charge of the game handed them the registration forms.
The student who was filling out the form in front saw the large group of people from the dance club approaching. They all made way for them, and some felt pessimistic.
“There are so many of them. They’re going to win this, no questions asked.”
With more people, there will definitely be more bottles picked up. Forget it, I participated, but it’s
meaningless. It’s just a waste of time.”

keychains.”
The members of the dance club were pleased to hear their resignation
“Yeah, with so few of you, you should give up quickly. The first place will definitely be ours.”
As they spoke, the people from the dance club also glanced at Violeta and her group of four.
On Violeta’s side, there were only her, Kaylee, her senior, and the senior’s boyfriend.
Compared to the large group from the dance club, they were truly insignificant.
Zelena and Hattie were also among the people from the dance club. When they passed by Violeta while filling out the form. Hattie chuckled.
Casey even rolled her eyes.
Last time at the Moon Festival, they had a grudge against each other.
The senior suddenly felt discouraged. “Ah, it seems we have no hope this time, Violeta. We don’t need to participate and waste any more time.”
Kaylee said, “But we can’t do that. Isn’t your boyfriend going to do an internship this semester? If he gets disciplined, he will definitely have to postpone graduation.”
The senior fell silent for a moment, looked at her boyfriend who had a worried expression, and sighed. helplessly. “If we have to blame someone, it can only be him for not following the rules. Forget it, forget it, let’s not participate. I’ll think of another solution.”
Kaylee looked at Violeta and said, “Vio, what should we do?”
Violeta glanced at the group of people from the dance club, then looked at the game rules.
Suddenly, she had a brilliant plan in mind.
“To win this game, it’s not about having more people, but about having more bottles. As long as we have more bottles than them, we can win too.”
The senior said, “But we only have four people, even if we pick up bottles, we won’t be able to collect more than the dance club.
Violeta replied, “Don’t worry, I have a plan. Let’s fill out the registration form first; the deadline for signing up is approaching.”
Noticing that they still had concerns, Kaylee spoke up, “Just trust Vio. Besides, this is just a game. Even if
there in that?”
we lose, we can consider it as participating in the game. What harmides, this is just a game. Even if
“Alright”
The four of them began filling out the forms.
Zelena and the others noticed that Violeta didn’t give up and even submitted the forms.
Casey sneered. “With just these few people, how could they possibly collect more bottles than us? It’s a
joke.”

Hattie mocked, “Exactly.”
The registration deadline for the game arrived, and nearly fifty people signed up, with twenty of them from the dance club!
The remaining participants had already given up hope of winning the championship and were just hoping to collect a few bottles to exchange for some small gifts.
“It’s now six o’clock, and the bottle picking game officially begins! The game will last for two hours and end at eight o’clock in the evening. Everyone must bring back all the bottles they collect. Alright, let’s start!”
With the command given, everyone dispersed.
The members of the dance club scattered in all directions..
Violeta stood still as Kaylee and the others prepared to scatter and pick up bottles.
The senior said, “Alright, I’ll go with him to the dormitory area, Kay, you go with Vio to the cafeteria, and we’ll meet up in an hour.”
Kaylee nodded. “Okay
Violeta’s clear voice came, “We don’t need to split up, let’s go to the school gate.”
“Go to the school gate? What are we going to do there?”
Violeta’s lips curved, “There are a lot of bottles over there! Let’s go.”
The three of them were puzzled but still followed Violeta.
When they arrived at the school gate, they found that there were two temporary barbecue stalls across the
street!
“How….how can there be two barbecue stalls here!”
The three of them were shocked.
Violeta said, “Of course, they were just set up recently. Look at what’s written on the sign.”
They all looked over.
They saw the sign in front of the barbecue stall that said ‘Spend 15 cents and get a bottle of water!
The barbecue stall was not fully set up yet, but there were already many free mineral water bottles stacked behind it.
The senior said happily, “If that’s the case, we’ll just wait for them to finish drinking the water and then pick them up!”
But Kaylee glanced at the two people busy behind the barbecue stall and suddenly froze, saying, “Vio, aren’t those Fiona and her husband? Oh my god, you arranged for them to come, didn’t you!”
She was right!
Violeta had arranged for them to set un the barbecue stall.

The sign for the barbecue stall was also temporarily taken down from a shop, and it said ‘Sunset Coffee Barbecue Limited Time Stall‘ on it.
By having Fiona and the others set up a stall, it would not only achieve the advertising effect of the café but would also help win the bottle–picking game, making it a win–win situation.
It was the time when students finished school and went out for dinner, and as soon as they left the school gate, they could see the barbecue stall across the street.
The sign said that with a 15–cent purchase, they could get a free bottle of water. Violeta couldn’t guarantee that every person would go and get the water, but at least seventy percent would.
So they just needed to wait here and pick up bottles.
Kaylee said. “This is great! With this, we’re guaranteed to win!”
The senior gushed, “Violeta, thank you so much, but this seems too expensive, I…!
Violeta answered, “Don’t worry, just consider it as coming here to advertise.”
The money from selling one bottle of water could be earned back by selling one more skewer of barbecue, so there’s no loss at all.
