Novel Title: The Rise of Little Puppies
Novel Synopsis: The cryptocurrency market is tumultuous, intertwined with bubbles and fervor. Countless people, harboring dreams of wealth, rush in, while others become lost or find redemption. Lin Ye was once a speculator in the crypto world, accidentally caught up in a scam led by an old ghost, witnessing the PUPPIES community become a tool for speculation, with retail investors harmed and the original intention of rescuing stray dogs trampled. After the scam was exposed, Lin Ye teamed up with partners to rebuild the community: the awakened speculator A K established the 'Guardianship Plan' to protect retail investors, tech expert Xiao Xing empowered charity through blockchain, and Su Xiao steadfastly supported stray dog rescue efforts. United, they worked to restore the community's essence of charity. Just as the community was getting back on track, Lin Ye faced the ultimate test—his mother fell seriously ill and needed a huge surgical fee. Foreign capital seized the opportunity to attempt a high-priced acquisition of the community to restart speculation. In this dilemma, the partners united to overcome the difficulties and successfully protected the community and its original intentions. A year later, the cryptocurrency market still cycles between explosive rises and falls, but the PUPPIES token has become a benchmark for niche charity. The novel tells the transformation of a group of people amidst desire and goodwill, interpreting the essence of the cryptocurrency world as not merely about getting rich overnight, but about those who remain true to their hearts and spread warmth amidst the bubbles.

At six o'clock in the early morning of February 12th, when the sky was just beginning to brighten, the hospital corridor was gradually filled with more people. The cleaning lady pushed the cleaning cart and swept softly, and the nurses carried their medical records and moved among the wards. The once quiet corridor gradually came back to life. K rested lightly on a bench and was awakened by a jolt of his phone. He rubbed his bloodshot eyes and picked up the phone. A series of messages popped up on the screen and woke him up instantly - all about the market dynamics of PUPPIES tokens.

On the morning of February 12th at six o'clock, the sky was already dimly bright, and the people in the hospital corridor gradually increased. The cleaning lady quietly pushed her cleaning cart, while the nurses hurried between the various wards with medical records in hand. The originally quiet corridor gradually regained its vitality. A K leaned against the bench and dozed off lightly, startled awake by the vibration of his phone. He rubbed his bloodshot eyes, picked up his phone, and the multiple messages popping up on the screen instantly made him alert— all were market dynamics alerts about the PUPPIES token.
During the two hours from four to six in the morning, the popularity of the PUPPIES token spread rapidly like wildfire, breaking out of the core cryptocurrency community's scope and spreading to larger traffic platforms like Twitter and Telegram groups. A K quickly opened Twitter, typed in the keyword 'PUPPIES' for a search, and related topics had quietly climbed to the tail end of the hot search list in the cryptocurrency section. In just two hours, the topic's reading volume exceeded 500,000, and the discussion volume surpassed 12,000, far exceeding the popularity of other newly launched tokens during the same period.

At 1:20 AM on February 12, on a bench in the hospital corridor, K is looking down at his phone screen, his fingertips sliding rapidly across the screen, his brows slightly furrowed. Lin Ye had just gone to the ward to take his place. At this moment, his mother was sleeping soundly. The ticking of the instrument was regular and gentle. There were only a few footsteps left in the corridor, so quiet that the faint sound of the phone screen turning on could be heard.
Just half an hour earlier, he had sold all the PUPPIES tokens in Lin Ye's account, and seeing 203,000 yuan arrive smoothly, his heart, which had been in suspense all night, finally felt a little relieved. But years of experience in the crypto world told him that things would never be so simple - a token without a team or a white paper that has just been launched and has seen a fourfold surge, there must be a mastermind behind it. He asked Lin Ye to sell off decisively because he was afraid of being carried away by the subsequent hype wave and ending up with the same fate as the previous PUPPIES fund.
But K didn't completely stay away from the token. He has been in the crypto world for five years, from initially blindly following the trend to later experiencing the tragedy of his mother missing a chance to heal due to a crypto scam, and has developed a very cautious and suspicious ability. He knows that risks and opportunities often coexist in the crypto world, and the more mysterious and the more involved the token is, the more likely it is to trigger a frenzy of hype. What he needs to do most now is not to blindly follow the trend, nor to completely avoid it, but to test - to test how deep the waters of this PUPPIES token are, to test the strength of the pushers behind it, to test the market's acceptance and circulation rhythm.
K opened his anonymous Ethereum wallet and found 10 ETH in it, which he had set aside for emergencies and market probing, equivalent to about 70,000 yuan. Without hesitation, he first exchanged 2 ETH for an equivalent amount of USDT, then copied the contract address of PUPPIES and added it to his wallet's asset list. The token information immediately appeared on the screen: Name PUPPIES, standard ERC-20, unit price $0.0000012, up 20% from the initial price.
"Sure enough, there's a little move." K murmured in a low voice, a trace of wariness flashing in his eyes. He noticed that after Linye's sale, the token price did not fall but rose slightly, and the trading volume was steadily climbing from 25 ETH to 40 ETH, and the number of trading addresses increased to more than 120. This indicates that, apart from retail investors like them, there are others who are quietly buying, and the buying intensity is steady. It doesn't seem like blind following, but rather like organized and planned accumulation.
K did not rush to buy in large quantities. Instead, he adopted a strategy of small probing. He operated the mouse and placed a buy order for 1 billion PUPPIES, consuming about $1,200 USDT, equivalent to 8,400 yuan. The order was so small that it would neither affect the market price nor draw the attention of the pushers behind it, and could be used to observe the market reaction.
Less than 30 seconds after the order is submitted, it shows as a deal. Looking at the new 1 billion PUPPIES tokens in his wallet, Ah K tapped the phone case lightly with his fingers, lost in thought. The quick transactions indicated that there was plenty of selling in the market, which also indirectly confirmed his guess that someone was secretly selling small amounts of tokens to guide retail investors into the market while controlling the price increase to avoid drawing excessive attention from the market too early.
What K needs to do next is to further test the market's sensitivity and the enthusiasm of retail investors. He opens up several core crypto communities he has joined - communities where veteran players gather, with members mostly retail investors who have some financial strength and trading experience, as well as the heads of small private equity firms, where news spreads quickly and market reactions are the most genuine. Among them, the "Crypto Veterans Exchange Group", the "Decentralized Concept Community", and the "Musk Hotspot Tracking Group" are the three groups he focuses on, where members have a high level of attention to hot concepts and newly listed tokens.
Instead of immediately Posting promotional copy, K first browsed through the chat records of these three communities. After 1:00 a.m., the community was still very active. Everyone was discussing the recent crypto market situation, complaining about the lack of new hype targets, and some were sharing their previous experiences of losing money by following the trend to buy pontoon tokens. Occasionally, a few people mentioned PUPPIES and simply asked, "Is this reliable?" "Is there a white paper?" There was no in-depth discussion, let alone large-scale buying
Seeing this, Ah K had a sense of security. He knew that the market was in a "hunger period", and retail investors were in urgent need of new hot targets, but because PUPPIES had no team and no white paper, everyone was watching and not daring to make a move. All he has to do is ignite the fire, attract retail investors' attention with the hot concept, and observe the reaction of the pusher behind the scenes and the willingness of retail investors to follow suit.
K began to come up with the hype copy. He knew that the core of the copy was to hit on retail investors' pain points and itches - what retail investors cared most about was the token's upside potential and the backing of the hotspots, not the team background and the white paper. So he decided to downplay PUPPIES 'shortcomings of having no team and no white paper, highlighting the three core selling points of "Musk concept", "decentralization", and "low threshold", while using inflammatory language to create a sense of urgency and guide retail investors to pay attention.
After a few minutes of deliberation, A K finally determined the content of the copy: "Urgent Revelation!" Musk's concept new coin PUPPIES quietly goes live on Ethereum! ERC-20 standard, contract address 0x8xxxxxx, decentralized, no pre-mining, fair issuance, everyone can participate! Musk has mentioned the puppy concept several times recently, and Twitter has hinted that this coin is very likely to become the next hundredfold hotspot! With an initial price of just $0.000001, low threshold and high potential, miss Bitcoin and PUPPIES, don't miss Puppies again! The current market attention is extremely low. It's a good time to get on board. The potential is unlimited. Those who understand will understand! (Risk Warning: Investment involves risks, enter the market with caution)
At the end of the copy, K also attached the contract address of PUPPIES tokens, a blockchain browser query link, and a screenshot of a simple buy-in tutorial. He deliberately added a "risk warning," on the one hand to avoid risks, and on the other hand to make the copy look more genuine, less like a pure promotional advertisement, and more likely to gain the trust of retail investors.
Instead of Posting the copy on all three communities at the same time, K adopted a strategy of Posting it in different time periods and batches. At 1:40 a.m., he first posted on the "Musk Hotspot Tracking Group" - the group whose members are most sensitive to Musk-related hot topics and are most likely to follow the trend. After the post, he immediately left the chat interface of the community, opened the trading page of PUPPIES tokens, and closely watched the chat records of the community to observe the first reaction of the market.
Less than a minute after the copy was posted, there was a reaction in the community. A member with the online name "Musk Die-hard Fan" was the first to reply: "Really?" Is Musk promoting the new currency again? Are there any tweets?" Immediately after, another member replied: "I checked the contract address. It's indeed the newly launched ERC-20 token, no pre-mining, and the contract code audit is fine." Another person directly asked, "How do you buy? Could the tutorial be more detailed?"
K looked at the reactions in the community, his lips slightly upturned. He didn't reply to any questions, but just watched silently. He noticed that as the discussion went on, the volume of PUPPIES 'tokens began to rise rapidly, from 40 ETH to 60 ETH, and the price rose from $0.0000012 to $0.0000015, an increase of 25 percent. More importantly, the number of trading addresses has soared, increasing by more than 80 in just ten minutes, indicating that retail investors have begun to follow suit and buy.
But K also noticed a detail: every time the price rose to $0.0000015, a large sell order was placed, pushing the price back to around $0.0000014, and the number of sell orders was steady, each time it was 2 billion tokens. This indicates that the driver has been secretly controlling the price increase by selling small amounts of money while satisfying retail investors' buying demands and guiding the market to heat up steadily, rather than pulling up all at once and avoiding revealing his position too early.
At exactly 2 a.m., A K posted the same message on the "Decentralized Concept Community". Members of this community are more concerned about the decentralized nature of the token and have a higher acceptance of tokens that are issued fairly without pre-mining. After the copy was released, the community's response was more rational than that of the "Musk Hotspot Tracking Group". Instead of immediately following the trend to ask questions, they first discussed the decentralized nature of the PUPPIES token.
"No pre-mining, no permission reservation, and no vulnerability in the contract code - that's really good and much more reliable than those tokens that have teams but operate behind the scenes." An old player with the online name "Decentralized Believer" replied. Another member cautioned: "Although the decentralized attribute is good, without a team and a white paper, the risk is still high. It is recommended that you position a small amount and not heavily." Another person chimed in: "The crypto market is not doing well now. It's not bad to have a new target to test the waters. Buy a small amount. It doesn't matter if you lose money. If you make a profit, it's a big deal."
As the discussion went deeper, many people in the "decentralized concept community" began to try buying PUPPIES tokens. K noticed that PUPPIES 'trading volume had risen to 90 ETH, and the price was stable at around $0.0000014. The driving force's control rhythm remained steady, not changing its strategy due to the simultaneous preheating of the two communities. It still controlled the price through small selling while quietly accumulating shares.
At 2:20 a.m., A K posted a message on the last core community, "Crypto Veterans Exchange Group". Most of the members of this community are seasoned veterans who are most vigilant about new tokens and are best at identifying liquidity pools and hype traps. After the copy was posted, the community's response was lackluster, with no immediate follow-up questions, but rather a lot of questions raised.
"No team, no white paper, typical air coin features, don't get ripped off." A member with the online name "Old Cannon", who is highly respected in the community and has repeatedly warned people to avoid ponzi schemes before, replied. Another member said: "The Musk concept has been overused. Every time there's a new coin, it's all about Musk. In the end, it's all about taking advantage of retail investors. Don't believe it." Some people directly @A K and asked, "Do you have an inside story? Or are you already on board and want to get retail investors to take over?"
In the face of the doubts, K still did not reply and just watched silently. He knows that the old players in this community are not easy to deceive. They value the actual value of the token and the logic behind it more than just the hot concept. But his aim is not to get these old players to buy immediately, but to observe the response of the driving force through their questioning and to grasp the overall market reaction - after all, the attitude of these old players, to a certain extent, represents the views of crypto professionals and will also influence the willingness of subsequent retail investors to follow suit.
Sure enough, after the skeptical voices emerged in the "Crypto veteran exchange group", the trading volume growth of PUPPIES slowed significantly, and the price stabilized at $0.0000014 and did not continue to rise. K noticed that there was a large buy order at $0.0000013, about 5 ETH, apparently someone was providing a floor to prevent the price from falling and also testing the selling pressure in the market.
For the next hour, K kept a close eye on the chat records of the three communities and the trading data of the PUPPIES token. He found that the "Musk Hotspot Tracking Group" had the strongest willingness to follow the trend, with many retail investors Posting screenshots of their purchases ranging from several thousand to tens of thousands of yuan; Retail investors in the "decentralized concept community" are more rational, mostly buying small amounts to test the waters and not following the trend on a large scale; The skeptical voices of the "Crypto Veterans Exchange Group" still exist. Although a few people have tried to buy, the overall attitude is still mainly to wait and see.
According to trading data, PUPPIES 'trading volume reached 120 ETH at 3 a.m., the number of trading addresses exceeded 300, and the price was stable at $0.0000016, up 60% from the initial price. By analyzing the trading data, Ah K found that the circulation rhythm of the token was quite regular: every 15-20 minutes, a sell order of 1-20 billion tokens was posted, and there was a corresponding buy order to take over. The price rose steadily, with the increase controlled between 10% and 20%. Apparently, the driving force was deliberately controlling the rhythm and guiding the market to gradually heat up.
In addition, K also noticed a key detail: There are 20 anonymous accounts that have been buying PUPPIES tokens in small amounts multiple times. Each account buys no more than 1 billion tokens each time, with an interval of 5 to 10 minutes. Moreover, the transaction addresses of these accounts are all brand new and have no historical transaction records. He concluded that these 20 accounts were the backers of the crowdfunding, and at the current rate of crowdfunding, they were estimated to have grabbed about 10 percent of the circulating tokens in the market.
At 3:30 a.m., Lin Ye came out of his ward and, seeing K still staring at his phone screen, asked with concern, "Brother K, why haven't you rested yet? Has something happened?" K raised his head, rubbed his tired eyes and smiled, saying, "It's okay. I'm observing the market reaction of PUPPIES tokens. Don't worry. Your money has arrived safely. Auntie's surgery fee is fine."
Lin Ye heaved a sigh of relief and sat beside Ah K, asking in puzzlement, "Brother Ah K, are you still paying attention to this coin? Aren't we already selling?" K nodded and said in a serious tone, "The reason I'm paying attention to it is to figure out who's behind it, and the potential and risks of this coin's rise. We have made money, but we can't let our guard down. The waters in the crypto world are too deep. Only by understanding the logic behind it can we avoid the risks that follow."
K told Lin Ye his findings and analysis: "Now it's certain that there are professional promoters behind PUPPIES. They secretly accumulate shares by diversifying accounts, and at the same time guide retail investors to enter through marketing hype, controlling the price increase and circulation rhythm. The current market response is good and retail investors have a strong willingness to follow the trend, but the accumulation of funds by the backers is not yet complete. It is estimated that they will continue to build up momentum and push the price even higher."
After hearing this, Lin Ye felt a pang of fear in his heart: "Fortunately we sold early. If we had been drawn into the subsequent hype, we might have lost everything again." K smiled and said, "You can't put it that way. This coin does have the potential to rise, but the risk is too high and it's not suitable for people like us who are in a hurry to save the situation. I just bought a small amount just to test the market and grasp the rhythm of the pusher behind the scenes. Maybe I can make a small profit if there is a suitable opportunity later, but I mustn't hold a heavy position."
At 4 a.m., K opened three core crypto communities again and found that PUPPIES had become a hot topic in the communities. In the "Musk Hotspot Tracking Group", some retail investors have posted screenshots of their earnings, some have made 30%, some have made 50%, everyone is cheering "get on board successfully", and some are calling on everyone to "increase positions and work hard"; In the "Decentralized Concept community", the focus of the discussion has shifted from "whether it's reliable" to "what is the target price"; There are still some skeptical voices in the Crypto veteran exchange group, but they are much less, and many veteran players have started to make small investments and try to follow the trend.
At the same time, K noticed that a few crypto bigwigs began to subtly refer to PUPPIES in the community. The copywriting content was much the same as what he had posted, all highlighting "Musk concept", "decentralization", "low threshold" to guide fans to pay attention. He knows that this means the marketing hype behind the scenes has begun to escalate, and more big V and marketing agencies will join in, and the popularity of PUPPIES will soon sweep across the entire crypto world.
K opened his wallet and looked at the 1 billion PUPPIES tokens inside, with a slight smile on his lips. After several hours of probing, he has basically grasped the circulation rhythm of PUPPIES and the logic of the pusher behind it: The pusher is powerful, the accumulation rhythm is steady, the marketing momentum is gradual, retail investors have a strong willingness to follow the trend, the token still has room to rise in the short term, but the long-term risk is extremely high, once the pusher completes the accumulation and starts selling, the price is bound to plunge.
K decided to continue holding the 1 billion PUPPIES tokens and observe the subsequent market dynamics and the operation rhythm of the promoters. He won't blindly follow the trend to add to his position, nor will he sell off too early. Instead, he will adjust his strategy in a timely manner based on price increases and volume changes, aiming to make a considerable profit before the promoters sell off. At the same time, he will keep a close eye on his mother's surgery arrangements to ensure that the surgery fee is completely safe - for him, making money is important, but the safety and health of his family are the most important.
At 4:30 a.m., the first rays of sunlight came in through the corridor window, dispelling the cold and silence of the night. K leaned back on the bench, closed his eyes and rested for a while. He knew that over the next few days, the crypto world would be in a frenzy because of PUPPIES, and in this frenzy, he would keep a clear head, seize the rare opportunity to make profits, and avoid the potential huge risks. The sleeping mother in the hospital ward and the grateful Lin Ye around him are the greatest motivation for him to stay awake.

At 1:20 AM on February 12th, on the bench in the hospital corridor, A K was staring at his phone screen, his fingertips sliding quickly across the screen, his brows slightly furrowed. Lin Ye had just gone to the ward to replace him for a rest; at this moment, his mother was sound asleep, the beeping of the machines was regular and calm, and the corridor was left with only sporadic footsteps, silent enough to hear the faint sound of the phone screen lighting up.
Just half an hour ago, he sold all the PUPPIES tokens in Lin Ye's account, watching 203,000 yuan smoothly credited, and his heart, which had been in suspense for a night, finally eased a little. But years of experience in the cryptocurrency market told him that things would never be this simple— a token with no team and no white paper had just launched and experienced a fourfold surge; there must be someone pulling the strings behind the scenes. The reason he urged Lin Ye to sell decisively was to avoid being caught up in the subsequent wave of speculation, ultimately ending up like the previous PUPPIES funding scheme.

At 0:10 a.m. on February 12, the top floor of an office building in the city center was still brightly lit. This is the hidden office of the "old ghost". There is no sign, no sign, only a heavy explosion-proof door that completely isolates the noise inside from the silence outside. The office was filled with smoke, and the air was a mixture of the bitterness of coffee and the richness of tobacco. Dozens of computer screens lit up at the same time, flashing dense codes, K-line charts and real-time data streams on the old ghost's angular face, flickering on and off.

On February 12 at ten past midnight, the top floor of an office building in the city center was still brightly lit. This is the secret office of 'Old Ghost,' unmarked and without signage, featuring a heavy blast door that completely isolates the noise inside from the silence outside. The office was filled with smoke, the air mixed with the bitterness of coffee and the richness of tobacco, dozens of computer screens were lit up simultaneously, displaying a dense array of codes, K-line charts, and real-time data streams, reflecting on Old Ghost's sharply defined face, flickering in and out.
Old Ghost's real name is Chen Mo. He has been in the cryptocurrency circle for eight years, starting as a retail investor following the trends, then moving on to private placements, and now holding vast resources and having insider information as a 'veteran' in the crypto world. He has witnessed too many myths of instant wealth and has personally experienced countless losses. His ability to stand firm in the ever-changing crypto market relies not only on his keen insight but also on a token monitoring system he developed himself—'Falcon.' This system can capture real-time information on newly launched tokens on mainstream public chains like Ethereum and Bitcoin, including contract addresses, issuance standards, issuance volume, pre-mining situations, and other core data, and then filter out targets with potential speculative value through algorithms, which is the key to his consistent ability to grasp internal news and seize market opportunities ahead of others.

Lin Ye slumped on the floor tiles of the inpatient corridor, his phone with a broken screen pressed into his palm, and the shards of glass at the edge were almost embedded in his flesh, but he was oblivious. PUPPIES The news of the reset was like a bucket of ice water, dousing his last shred of hope. The wailing in the group, the beeping of the instruments in his mother's ward, and the footsteps of passers-by in the corridor interwove into a suffocating net, trapping him tightly. He stroked the photo of his mother on the back of his phone over and over again, and tears fell on the cold screen, creating a blurry water stain - not only had he lost all his savings, but he also owed K 20,000, and his mother had to pay 160,000 for the surgery next Monday, but now he couldn't even make up a fraction of it.

$BTC Lin Ye sat slumped on the hospital corridor's floor tiles, the shattered phone screen digging into his palm, the jagged glass edges nearly embedding into his flesh, yet he remained oblivious. The news of PUPPIES resetting felt like a bucket of ice water, extinguishing his last shred of hope. The wails in the group chat, the beeping sounds of the machines in his mother's ward, and the footsteps of passersby in the corridor intertwined to form a suffocating web that trapped him tightly. He repeatedly rubbed the back of his phone where his mother's photo was, tears splattering onto the cold screen, blurring it with a patch of moisture—he not only lost all his savings but also owed A K 20,000; his mother needed to pay 160,000 for surgery next Monday, and now he couldn't even scrape together the smallest amount.

Lin Ye's finger hung above the "Confirm" button on the PUPPIES reservation interface for a full ten minutes. On the screen, the cartoon puppy icon was smiling in a cute way, but in his eyes, it was like a devil wearing a sweet mask, tempting him to get rich overnight while revealing sharp fangs in the shadows. The sunlight in the corridor gradually slanted through the window and fell on the phone screen, creating blinding spots that made his already tired eyes even more sore.

The fingers of the forest lingered above the 'Confirm' button on the PUPPIES appointment interface for a full ten minutes. On the screen, the cartoon puppy icon smiled adorably, but in his eyes, it resembled a devil wearing a sweet mask, tempting him with 'get rich overnight' while revealing sharp fangs in the shadows. The sunlight in the corridor gradually slanted to the west, filtering through the window and falling on the phone screen, refracting glaring spots of light that made his already tired eyes feel even more sore.
In the end, he still trembled as he withdrew his finger and closed the appointment interface. A-K's words echoed like a warning bell in his ears: 'Don’t over-invest, don’t follow the crowd, staying alive is more important than anything, family is more important than anything.' He could not be impulsive anymore; his mother’s life-saving money had already been lost by more than half, and A-K's 20000 loan was a timely help; he could not gamble this hope away as well. But just thinking about having to pay the remaining 160,000 or so debt by next Monday, and remembering that his mother was still lying in the hospital waiting for money to have surgery, his heart felt as if it were tightly clenched by an invisible hand, stifling and making it hard to breathe.

Lin Ye sat on the cold floor of the inpatient corridor, his back pressed tightly against the white wall, and the white light from his phone screen pricked his eyes. The price of DOGE2 was still falling, from $0.01 all the way to $0.008, and the number of assets in his account kept fluctuating and finally settled at $3,686.91 - in just one morning, he not only lost the $380 he had earned last night, but also lost $5,530.38, which would have been enough to cover a few days' worth of food expenses. In an instant, it shrank to a negligible figure.

Lin Ye sat on the cold floor of the inpatient department corridor, his back pressed tightly against the white wall, the white light from the phone screen stinging his eyes. The price of DOGE2 continued to drop, sliding from $0.01 all the way down to $0.008, the asset number in his account constantly fluctuating, finally settling at 3686.91元—within a short morning, not only had he lost the 380元 he earned last night, but he also incurred a loss of 5530.38元, and the savings that could barely support a few days of food expenses instantly shrank to an insignificant number.
The number of people in the corridor gradually increased, doctors, nurses, and family members of patients came and went, the sounds of footsteps, conversations, and the beeping of machines intertwined, forming a noisy torrent, yet it seemed to be isolated from him. He buried his face in his knees, tightly hugging his legs, his shoulders uncontrollably trembling, the suppressed sobs were held tightly in his throat, only a few weak gasps could be squeezed out from his nasal cavity. In the pocket of his down jacket, the bill still pressed against his thigh, but at this moment, the number '198620元' was no longer a dull knife, but a sharp dagger, piercing through all of his hopes.

It was one o 'clock in the early hours of the morning when the corridors of the inpatient department of the First City hospital were completely quiet. The nurse on duty would make his rounds every hour. His footsteps were as light as a cat's, and as he passed over the woods beside the bench, he would only raise his eyes slightly, his gaze quickly falling back to his phone screen, his fingertips sliding rapidly across the cold screen, not daring to blink an eye.
The Crypto get-rich-quick exchange group is still lively, but there are more "valuable insights" after a bit of reflection than the frenzy before late at night. Someone has compiled a list of the top ten altcoins that rose in price that day, along with their own "logic for buying up the market"; Some people sent a series of voice messages explaining how to register for an exchange, how to transfer funds, and how to set take-profit and stop-loss; Some people anonymously shared their "blowout experiences", warning novices "don't go long, don't leverage," but were quickly flooded with "showing off profits."

When the corridor of the inpatient department of the First Municipal Hospital became completely quiet, it was already 1 AM. The duty nurse comes to check the rooms every hour, her footsteps as light as a cat. As she passed by the long bench, he merely raised his eyes slightly, but his gaze quickly returned to the phone screen, his fingertips sliding rapidly across the cold surface, hardly daring to blink.
The "Wealthy Circle Chat Group" is still lively, but compared to the fervor before midnight, there’s a bit more of a "valuable share" after settling down. Someone compiled a list of the top ten altcoins by daily increase, along with their respective "pump logic"; someone else sent multiple voice messages explaining how to register on exchanges, how to transfer funds, and how to set stop-loss and take-profit orders; there was even an anonymous sharing of one's "liquidation experience", warning newcomers "not to be greedy, not to leverage too much", but it was quickly drowned out by news of "profit sharing."

The smell of the disinfectant was like an airtight net, trapping the forest in the corridors of the inpatient department of the First Hospital of the city. He leaned against the cold white wall, his fingertips pinching the collection note he had just taken from the toll booth, his finger joints bluish-white from the force, and the number "debt amount: 198,620 yuan" on the paper, like a blunt knife, repeatedly cut through his already tense nerves.
