It's a hell game, who can still be a human being?

Chapter 340: The Legendary Delivery Man Set is Complete
"Achieve 'Energetic' status."

"Energetic: Strength +2, Constitution +2, lasts for two hours."

"Oh, not bad."

Liu Zheng nodded slightly.

Although the added attributes are not much and the duration is not long, this kind of pure positive buff is naturally more the better.

"how much is it?"

he asked.

"No need, sir. Sumireko has already paid for you."

Shizuko shook her head.

"Oh, that's okay."

Liu Zheng didn't insist either.

If you show your love for nothing, it is either adultery or theft.

But Sumireko obviously had something to ask him, so that was fine.

"Please follow me, my guest."

After helping Liu Zheng put on his clothes, Jingzi took him to a small door.

Open the small door and there is a private room inside.

This time the style is not mixed, it is a standard Japanese tatami style.

"Zheng-chan, please take a seat."

Sumireko walked over quickly, took his tentacle and led him to a long table.

Japanese high-end cuisine is served in separate portions, which is somewhat helpful in reducing Helicobacter pylori infection.

At this time, the long table was already filled with a variety of food, including lobster, fish, shellfish, sea urchin, pork chops, and yakitori. The variety was very complete.

"You seem to be someone who is not obsessed with formalities, so I took the initiative and asked them to serve all the dishes directly."

Sumireko explained.

Normal Japanese high-end cuisine is served bit by bit, with long intervals between portions and small portions. It's more like eating the atmosphere than eating the food.

"You did very well."

Liu Zheng nodded.

"that would be great."

Sumireko said with a smile, then knelt down in front of the table.

"please sit down."

She said.

"Ah? Where do I sit?"

Liu Zheng looked around and asked.

"Sit on my lap, of course."

Sumireko deliberately pulled the hem of her yukata open a little, revealing her thighs underneath.

"Let's forget it."

He said as he looked at Sumireko's snow-white and plump thighs.

"Really? You don't want to try it? My knee seat is very comfortable. If you don't want to sit on my thighs, you can sit somewhere else."

Sumireko drew circles on her chest with her fingers.

"Then you might as well sit on your butt. It's bigger and has more meat."

Liu Zheng said casually.

"Ah? That's fine too."

Sumireko was stunned for a moment, then she lay on the ground with a laugh and raised her body below the waist.

"Forget it, I don't buy it. Go sit down at your own seat and don't delay my meal."

He slapped it in anger.

"Hehe. What a pure and kind man."

Sumireko climbed up in a cat-stretching position and winked at him.

After being glared at by Liu Zheng, she finally walked to the table opposite and sat down.

After she sat down, the same food as Liu Zheng's appeared on the table immediately.

Obviously, Sumireko was just teasing him.

However, if Liu Zheng is really interested, she doesn't mind demonstrating her service level.

"Speaking of which, what do you want from me?"

Liu Zheng picked up a piece of fried pork chop, put it in his mouth and chewed it before asking.

He still prefers cooked food to those precious sashimi.

"Have you ever heard of the bathhouse street, Masa-chan?"

Sumireko asked.

"I've heard that the food there will turn customers into pigs."

Liu Zheng nodded.

"Zheng-chan is really well-informed. Many older city dwellers don't even know about the Bathhouse Street."

Sumireko showed admiration.

"It's just so-so, I just know a few more people."

he said humbly.

By the way, he didn't say hello to Porco Rosso when he left the country.

But it’s better not to go. Given Red Pig’s mental state and the fact that Liu Zheng hasn’t completed his commission, he might not only not get anything, but also get beaten up. It would be a waste.

"I have heard about Zhengjiang's connections, otherwise I wouldn't come to you for help."

Sumireko threw him a wink.

"So what exactly does Sumireko want from me?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"Well, my niece Jingzi works at the bathhouse on the bathing street, but I can't contact her recently."

"After much investigation, we found out that we had violated work regulations and were being fed like pigs by our boss."

"We used our connections to get in touch with the boss, and spent a lot of money to convince her not to attack Jingzi for the time being."

"But the boss had no intention of letting Jingzi go, nor did he agree to let us redeem her all at once. Instead, he asked us for money every once in a while."

"We feel that this is not a long-term solution, and we have heard about your deeds, so we shamelessly asked me to ask you for help."

Sumireko said in one breath.

"What work rules did she violate?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"She fell in love with a pig and then set him free."

Sumireko replied.

Wow, this plot sounds familiar.

Isn’t this the story of Porco Rosso and his wife?

But at least Porco Rosso and his wife escaped from the Bathhouse Street. Even though it ended badly, they still lived happily for a few years.

But Jingzi and her lover couldn't even complete the preliminary procedures.

"And what about the pig?"

Liu Zheng asked.

“What you just ate was deep-fried pork cutlet.”

Sumireko said with a smile.

"Uh so it's a scumbag?"

He asked, looking at the plate he had eaten clean.

"That's not the case. It was already dead when we found it. In order not to waste Jingzi's sacrifice, we used it as food."

Sumireko shook her head.

"Well, it can be said to be very environmentally friendly. So how much have you spent now?"

Liu Zheng skipped this topic.

"Three hundred thousand."

Sumireko replied.

"Wow, your niece is worth quite a lot."

Three hundred thousand is enough to hire a lot of people, and that Bathhouse Street should not be able to stop the department manager of the Bloody Restaurant.

Judging from the situation, Sumireko's family should all work in the bathhouse district. Their salary may be higher than his, but it should not be much higher.

Being willing to spend such a huge price to save a person is not in line with the ethos of a metropolitan city.

"Jingzi's situation is special. She is the person in our clan who is most likely to awaken the ancestral bloodline in the past hundred years, so these three hundred thousand are raised by the clan members."

Sumireko saw his suspicion and explained.

"I see."

Liu Zheng suddenly realized and felt a little curious.

What is the awakened ancestral bloodline of this bathhouse clan, the innate technician holy body?

"Shouldn't you protect such an important offspring? Why let her go to work in such a dangerous place?"

he wondered.

The son of a wealthy family should not sit in the hall, and this principle should also apply in metropolitan areas.

"Our clan's situation is special, and we can only work in places like bathhouses. And if Jingzi wants to awaken the bloodline of her ancestors, she must work in a high-end bathhouse." Sumireko said.

"Then how come your clan has been working in the bathing industry for so long that you can't handle her boss?"

"No matter how long an employee has worked, they are still just employees. Zheng-chan has done such an outstanding job at the Bloody Restaurant, don't you understand this?"

A sad smile appeared on Sumireko's face.

"Yeah, too."

He agreed with her statement.

Indeed, even if one becomes as successful as a legendary delivery man, he will still be killed if he comes into conflict with his boss.

"Then how can I help you?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"It would be best if Zheng-chan has connections in this area and can help us mediate and rescue Jingzi safely."

Sumireko said expectantly.

"That, I really can't think of it for the time being. There is only one acquaintance who is somewhat related to the Bathhouse Street, but he probably doesn't know as much as you do. And his mental state is unstable now, so it's hard to get anything out of him."

He shook his head.

"No matter what, as long as there is hope, it's a good thing."

"Okay, I'll go back and try, but you have to reimburse me for the expenses."

Liu Zheng said.

It costs money to enter the cemetery. I was ripped off badly by the gravekeeper last time, and I guess he won’t let me go this time.

But you can buy some Hades Milk and take it to the shelter to win the favor of the Red Ghost.

"This is no problem."

Sumireko said without hesitation.

"What about other options?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"Jing-chan is in the city hall, so he should have some friends, right?"

Sumireko asked, looking at the certificate of family members of city hall employees on his chest.

"We can't really be called friends, we just share the same ideals and interests."

he said modestly.

"Then this relationship will be more solid. I wonder if we can use their methods to force Jingzi's boss to release her."

Sumireko's eyes lit up.

"Which department is in charge of Bathhouse Street?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"Bathhouse Street is outside the city, so the city hall's jurisdiction over it is relatively loose. But if it were a powerful department like the General Office, the Public Security Department, or the Employment Department, they would definitely be able to take charge."

Sumireko said.

"Oh my goodness, so the Employment Office is actually a powerful department?"

he said in surprise.

"Yeah, doesn't Zheng-chan know? After all, in Metropolis, everyone needs a job."

Sumireko said the same thing as Niu Ma did back then.

Liu Zheng was in a trance for a moment as he listened, as if he had returned to the time when he first entered the metropolis.

Back then he was a terminally ill patient, and now he's not even completely human anymore.

"Okay, I can ask for you, but the price is a bit high."

Liu Zheng came back to his senses and said.

The Border Administration is definitely not professionally qualified to manage Bathhouse Street, but as the City Hall should be ranked among the top three core departments, it should be able to establish some connections.

However, favors of this level cannot be solved with just tens of thousands of dollars. It is best to exchange favors for others.

"Understood. Please believe our sincerity."

Sumireko said firmly.

"It's not that I don't believe in your sincerity, it's that I don't believe in your strength."

Of course, he definitely didn't say such low EQ words directly.

“What if this road still doesn’t work?”

Liu Zheng asked.

"If that doesn't work, then we'll just have to rob it."

A hint of cruelty flashed in Jinzi's eyes.

"It's not that I don't want to make this money, but isn't my expertise not suitable for you? Although I'm already well-known in the blasting and extermination circles, my main job is still a delivery man after all."

"For this kind of job, you should go to the black market to find mercenaries and assassins."

He shrugged.

"This matter is really best done by you, Zhengjiang."

Sumireko said.

"Oh why?"

"After all, our clan still relies on the bathing industry to make a living. It would be a bit of a rift if we go to the black market or do it ourselves. Besides, it was Jingzi who broke the rules in this matter, so it's not good for our reputation."

Sumireko explained.

“Then why am I suitable?”

"First, Zheng-chan, you are not from our business. Even if they suspect us afterwards, we can deny it."

"Secondly, our clan's abilities are all related to bathing. Although there are bonuses in the environment of the bathing street, it is also easy to be targeted. But you, Zheng-chan, don't have this problem."

"Third, Zheng-chan, you have a very legitimate reason to enter the bathing street, and even enter the place where Jingzi is imprisoned."

Sumireko said one by one.

"You mean, you want me to deliver takeout to Jingzi?"

Liu Zheng understood the elegant meaning of the music by hearing it.

"That's right, Zheng-chan is really smart. He is worthy of being the man I admire."

Sumireko blew him a kiss.

“It’s really tasty~”

Liu Zheng took the bowl of miso soup and took a big sip.

"Disgusting~"

Sumireko rolled her eyes at him.

"It sounds like a simple job. But to be honest, I have a lot of things on my hands right now and I really don't have time to take on such a big job."

He put down the bowl and said.

Moreover, his network of connections is all in the city, and there are too many uncontrollable factors if he goes outside the city.

"I know you're busy, but I've got an offer you can't refuse."

Sumireko said confidently.

"Oh? Then I'd like to listen to it."

Liu Zheng said with interest.

"We worked hard to get this."

Sumireko pulled out a vacuum-sealed bag from her yukata and threw it at him.

Liu Zheng stretched out his tentacles and took off the vacuum bag.

When I opened it, I saw a pair of yellowed boxer briefs inside, and the top part had a suspicious sticky feeling.

"Ah~"

He took out the boxer briefs with a look of disgust, and the item introduction popped up immediately.

"Name: The Dirty Underwear of the Legendary Delivery Man (One-time)"

"Type: Equipment"

“Quality: Excellent”

"Effect 3: All attributes + after each excretion, lasting for one hour."

"Effect 1: After use, it is considered as the Legendary Delivery Man Suit +. There is no corresponding equipment effect, and only some suit effects can be activated. It lasts for half an hour, and the equipment will be automatically destroyed after half an hour."

“Can I take out a copy: Yes”

"Note: Peeing makes you energetic, and pooping makes you feel relaxed."

Good guy, he's just a good guy.

Liu Zheng looked at this item that was full of flaws in every sense, and for a moment he didn't know what expression to make.

Strong, it is definitely strong.

All attributes +3 after excretion may sound a bit funny, but it is actually a very practical and easy to trigger effect.

The second effect is even more powerful after he has collected two pieces of the legendary delivery man suit.

This set of items of perfect quality will definitely have a great effect.

The most conservative estimate is that his strength can be raised to the level of cattle and horses.

At that time, whether going to the garbage disposal plant or the Chaos Club, or dealing with Peacock's possible revenge, the survival rate will be greatly improved.

The most important thing is that he really wants to know what the effect of the legendary delivery man suit is.

"I'll take the job. You can tell me the details."

Liu Zheng put away the legendary underwear and said seriously.
