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

Chapter 394: In the Metropolis, This Is No Laugh
"That won't work. Without you, the Minister, I'm afraid others will bully me."

Liu Zheng said straightforwardly.

"They bully you? With your ability, you'd be lucky if you don't bully them."

Thirteen Yao was speechless.

"Then I don't care. My uncle personally handed me over to you. You can't just ignore me."

"You are playing rogue, aren't you?"

Thirteen Yao glared at him, but it was pitch dark and he could see nothing.

"You've put so much effort into me, and you haven't received any reward yet. If I die like this, you'll lose money~"

Liu Zheng said in a long voice.

"Besides, those golden balls were all born by me. If they knew that you didn't care about my life or death, they would never be able to borrow them again~"

he said again.

"You dare to threaten me, don't you think your uncle is your leader?"

".Can you guys agree on a common name?"

He was speechless.

"Working in a bathhouse requires following the rules. If everyone uses connections like you, how can I be the director?"

Thirteen Yao said seriously.

"I see. Minister, this is the fine I paid."

Liu Zheng took out a handful of banknotes and fumbled to put them into Shisanyao's pocket.

"Huh? What do you mean?"

Thirteen Yao felt the thickness.

"I feel that my performance today was too poor and did not reach the minimum standard of the massage department. In order to show my sincerity, I voluntarily accept the penalty."

He said righteously.

"If you haven't reached the minimum level yet, then Bathhouse Street would have been our massage department long ago."

The corner of Shisanyao's eyes twitched slightly.

"That means I haven't met your expectations of me. It's a grave sin to disappoint an elder."

Liu Zheng changed his words.

"Actually, I don't have any expectations of you, as long as you don't cause me any trouble."

Thirteen Yao said with empty eyes.

"I understand that you don't want to put too much pressure on me, so you don't want to speak out your inner thoughts."

He looked understanding.

"That's exactly what I'm thinking! Oh, forget it, let's just leave it at that. I don't know why you, who are so rich, come to the bathhouse?"

Thirteen Yao said helplessly.

He is capable, rich and has connections. You can't afford to offend him.

The key point is that he was the one who recruited this relative, which makes it even more annoying.

Alas, lust can make one lose one’s mind, lust can make one lose one’s mind.

"Just think of me as someone who is here to experience life."

Liu Zheng thought about it and took out the badge of the family members of City Hall employees and stuffed it into Shisanyao's hand.

"what is this?"

Thirteen Yao pinched it twice and asked.

"If the Minister doesn't know, why not let Sister Yoko give it a try."

"Okay. Come on, Xiaoji, come and see what this kid is up to."

Thirteen Yao said with a smile.

"You did it on purpose, right?"

Although he knew that Liu Zheng couldn't see, Xiaoji still rolled his eyes at him.

"Hey, touching it won't make your flesh fall off. At worst I can help you touch it back later."

Liu Zheng said.

"Don't even think about it. If you dare to touch me, I will tear all my limbs off."

Thirteen Yao's hair stood on end.

However, after being frightened by him, Shisanyao's thoughts of taking advantage of others were much lessened, and he just pinched his palms twice.

And Xiaoji didn't say anything. He was taken advantage of by customers many times every day, so this was nothing.

"Minister, Sister Yoko has let you take advantage of her so much, so you have to protect her well from now on, right?"

Liu Zheng said.

"What do you mean by taking advantage? I just touched her hand. Besides, she has a good brother-in-law. Does she still need my protection?"

Thirteen Yao said.

"Sister Yoko and I are of one mind. If you touch her, you are touching me. You are touching two people at once. Isn't that a big advantage?"

"Besides, a distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor. When it comes to the work in the bathhouse, who can protect you better than Minister Thirteen? Don't you agree?"

He said.

"How disgusting! You've already finished what you were saying. Xiaoji, tell me, what did this kid come up with?"

Thirteen Yao asked.

"I'm touching it, right? What is this?!"

Yoko made a shocked sound.

"What's wrong? Did the badge bite your hand?"

Thirteen Yao asked hurriedly.

"Minister, your joke is so bad. Well, just forget it."

Liu Zheng slapped himself in the face.

Things like badges biting your hand are a joke in real life, but in the metropolitan city it is a daily occurrence.

"Can you tell me?"

Yaoji did not answer Shisanyao, but asked him first.

"It's okay, just tell me."

Liu Zheng said.

The family badge would not reveal his identity.

“This is a badge identifying the family members of City Hall employees.”

Xiaoji said while biting his lip.

"Another City Hall relative. You're one of them, too, aren't you? Why are you so surprised?"

Thirteen Yao asked curiously.

"I'm not, my sister is. And even my sister doesn't have this badge."

“Only regular employees who are rated as outstanding employees can get this badge, and those outstanding employees are either leaders of weak departments or elites of strong departments.”

Xiaoji shook his head and said.

Even the head of a weak department in the city hall is a big shot to the people of Bathhouse Street.

"Who are you? Are you sent by the City Hall to investigate us?"

Thirteen Yao immediately became alert.

"Minister, have you watched too many police and gangster movies?"

Liu Zheng asked back.

"Well, that does not seem possible. So what are you doing here?"

If the City Hall wants to take action against Bathhouse Street, it doesn't need to do such small tricks. It can just let the Public Security Bureau and the Municipal Supervision Bureau come and jointly enforce the law.

The people from the Public Security Department sealed off all sides of the Bathhouse Street, and then the people from the Municipal Supervision Department came in to check food hygiene, banned drugs, counterfeit and shoddy products, etc. The Bathhouse Street would be in trouble if it didn't die.

If the Commissioner of Taxation is included, then let alone Bathhouse Street, even the eight gods behind him would not dare to say anything.

The reason why Thirteen Yao knew this was because he had heard of similar things.

As we all know, Shiwandashan is a remote and poor area, so the city hall generally doesn't care much about it.

But not caring too much does not mean that you can’t control it. Some people just don’t know this truth.

There once was a new demon king who was very powerful. In just a few years, he occupied more than a dozen hilltops, and even the barbarians had to avoid him.

Once a person takes off too fast, he will easily drift, and the same goes for monsters.

After a people-evaluation meeting, this demon king said something like "City Hall is shit, and the Municipal Supervision Bureau is worse than shit."

Then, the mountain where it was located was completely blown up, and the hilltops it occupied were also carpet-cleansed.

As for the fines and operational expenses, they will be shared by other forces that participated in that congress.

Neither the City Hall nor Shiwandashan publicized this matter, so not many people knew about it.

Shisanyao also once served a demon king, who told him only after he was so drunk and had sex with him.

"Does the Minister want to know?"

Liu Zheng raised his eyebrows.

"Yes I do."

"Then you will be on board our pirate ship."

He said.

"Well, actually I don't think I want to know that much."

Thirteen Yao said immediately.

"Oh~"

Liu Zheng dragged out the last syllable of his voice for a long time. But he was not really disappointed, because he didn't really want to drag Shisanyao along in the first place.

Although Thirteen Yao is the opposition, the enemy of my enemy is not necessarily my friend.

Neutral people like Bajiao and Yaoji helped Liu Zheng save Jingzi simply because they owed him a favor and felt grief for him.

Opposition groups like Shisanyao are likely to seize this opportunity to try to overthrow Grandma Tang, and the problem will then become magnified and complicated.

Liu Zheng only came to complete the commission, not to overthrow the black-hearted boss.

"You look just like your uncle. I don't know how many lifetimes of bad luck Old Man Qing must have had to have a capable nephew like you."

Thirteen Yao shook his head and said.

"Then Minister, shouldn't you protect me, a subordinate that you were so lucky to recruit?"

He followed the other party's words.

"Impossible. When I was a technician, I had to give them massages. Now that I'm a department manager, I still have to give them massages. Then, wouldn't my position as department manager be in vain?"

Thirteen Yao said without hesitation.

"How dare I bother you to accompany me, Minister? I just want you to show me a way to survive."

Liu Zheng said.

"Why do I feel like you can survive without me showing you the way?"

"That must be your illusion, Minister."

he said firmly.

"Humph. Master Hachijo has already given you the pills. Why don't you just go and serve Lord Okawa-ryu?"

Thirteen Yao said.

"Mr. Eight has his own way, and Mr. Minister has his own tricks."

Liu Zheng's compliments came out without hesitation.

"Don't call me sir, I can't bear it."

Shisanyao first refuted him, and then fell into thought.

"Hold tight, little chicken."

After walking forward for a distance, Shisanyao suddenly spoke.

Liu Zheng didn't know what was going to happen, but he still subconsciously hugged towards Yaoji.

"Nanto Dark Demon Fist: One shot into oblivion."

As Shisanyao called out the name of the move, a sharp sound of breaking through the air was heard immediately.

"Well!"

Xiaoji only had time to groan before he fainted and fell into Liu Zheng's arms.

"Lord Okawa-ryu is actually a good god."

Thirteen Yao said slowly.

"Then why does He make the bathhouse so tense every time He comes? And why does He sacrifice so many black balls to make fire?"

He moved Xiaoji into a more comfortable position.

"That was not His will. Just like Lord Kunguna, Lord Okawaru who came to the bathhouse is also another personality of the evil god."

Thirteen Yao replied.

"It's just that his personality as an evil god was not innate, but was contaminated."

“The process of bathing is actually the process of purifying pollution.”

"During this process, Lord Okawa Liu's benevolent personality still retained some ability to act. However, his ability is limited and he cannot protect too many people."

"The more serious the pollution, the less ability He retains to act, and the fewer people He can protect."

"As for who to protect and who not to protect, this is a secret that only successive heads of the massage department know."

Thirteen Yao tells the story.

"Then tell me now, do you want me to be the next head of the massage department?"

Liu Zheng has some associations.

"Did you inhale your uncle's incense before you took up your post?"

Thirteen Yao said bluntly.

"Ahaha, just kidding, go on."

He laughed.

"As the minister, I can decide who to tell, and I can decide who to forget."

"After you have served Lord Okawaru, I will make you forget this secret."

"If you leak it out halfway, haha."

Shisanyao didn’t finish what he said, but everything was implied.

Nan Dou's Dark Demon Fist didn't hurt Shi Tiantian at all, but it was enough to cause Liu Zheng to explode.

"Don't worry, I like to keep things to myself when I speak."

Liu Zheng patted his chest and assured.

Although it wasn't very smooth, he was indeed photographing his own chest this time.

"You better be. Okay, you're fine."

Thirteen Yao's tone became serious.

Liu Zheng also put on a serious expression, although Shisanyao still couldn't see it.

"First, when serving Lord Okawaryu, try not to show any expression of disdain or disgust."

"Second, while serving Lord Okawaryu, try not to make any noise no matter what happens."

"Third, try to make yourself as dirty as possible before serving Lord Okawaru."

Thirteen Yao said them one by one.

"In short, you want to go along with Lord Okawa, right, Minister?"

He said after listening.

"If you say so, there's nothing wrong with that."

Thirteen Yao nodded.

"So what kind of soiling do you mean? Is it physical or mental? Is it about hygiene or worldview?"

Liu Zheng draws inferences from one example.

"Of course it's for physical hygiene. If it was useful to be mentally dirty, then we wouldn't have any casualties in the massage department."

Thirteen Yao replied as a matter of course.

If the top beam is not straight, the bottom beam will be crooked too. With a director like Shisanyao, the massage department employees will naturally have their minds full of dirty garbage.

"understood."

He nodded.

"If you can meet these three points, plus the pills that Mr. Bajo gave you, you should be fine."

"And if you can survive this, I can make you the team leader directly."

Shisanyao started to make promises for Liu Zheng.

Every time these distinguished guests arrive, it is both a death anniversary and a lucky day for the bathhouse staff.

If the old people don't die, how can the newcomers have a chance to succeed?

"Then I would like to thank you in advance for your cultivation, Minister."

Liu Zheng said respectfully.

"We are all family, why be polite? Just remember to say good things about me in front of your uncle."

Shisanyao held his shoulders affectionately and moved his palm downwards.

Then he felt another rough and powerful big hand.

"Boy, are you in love with Xiaoji?"

Thirteen asked with a gloomy face.

"Sister Yoko is beautiful and kind-hearted. I am young and admire her, so it is normal for me to like her."

"Besides, we are both family members of City Hall employees and we both work at the bathhouse. It would be wise for us to join forces. What do you think, Minister?"

Liu Zheng held his hand and said.

"That's right. As the minister, I might even have to look at your faces when the time comes."

Shisanyao pulled his hand out and wiped it twice on his clothes.

"That's definitely not the case. There is no two suns in the sky, and in my heart there is only you, the Minister."

"When the two of us come out, it will definitely be you, the Minister, who will be on the top floor of the bathhouse overlooking the bathhouse street."

Liu Zheng said seriously.

"You are such a jerk. You are not qualified to work in the massage department. You should just go to the service department and become the head."

Thirteen Yao boasted.

"Then I will turn the Service Department into a subordinate department of the Massage Department, and you will be my department head."

"Old Man Qing is so lucky to have a nephew like you."

Thirteen Yao sighed.

"It is a blessing for my uncle to have a confidant like you."

He interjected.

"Hahaha!"

"Hahaha!"

Amid the two people's hypocritical laughter, the elevator's indicator lights gradually became clear.
