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

Chapter 685 Even the Supreme Council Speaker Has to Obey and Eat Takeout
After registering, Liu Zheng arrived at the novelist's doorstep.

This time, instead of banging on the door violently, he rang the doorbell properly.

The novelist didn't keep him waiting long; he opened the door after the doorbell rang twice.

"Senior~"

The novelist cried out in a sweet voice.

She wore a white spaghetti strap top and an A-line mini skirt, looking both innocent and sexy.

Liu Zheng glanced at it subconsciously.

Yes, I wore it.

"You look great today."

He praised it.

"You look very handsome today, senior."

The novelist smiled, her eyes crinkling, and naturally reached out to straighten the wrinkles in his clothes.

The atmosphere suddenly became just right, subtly ambiguous.

"You two adulterers, can't you see where you're being flirtatious?"

Hishi Shikibu's shrill voice rang out, oblivious to the danger.

"So, Ms. Hishishikibu was here too. You hid so well, I didn't even notice you."

Liu Zheng said, feigning surprise.

Are you mocking me for being invisible?

Hishi Shikibu immediately understood his implied meaning.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. A lady as beautiful and talented as you would be the most radiant even standing in the sun."

Liu Zheng said earnestly.

"Aren't you afraid Izanami will be jealous if you say such things to other women in front of her?"

Taking advantage of the situation, Hii ​​Shikibu sowed discord.

"No, the novelist knows that my praise is unbiased. Besides, you're not just any woman."

He shook his head.

"Yes, senior, I understand."

The novelist nodded repeatedly.

"Tch, humans really are good at sweet talk."

Hishibu rolled her eyes.

Where is Deer Boy?

Liu Zheng asked.

"I left him in the kitchen. Deer Boy, come out!"

"Hishikibu shouted."

"Yes, Lady Hishishikibu."

Accompanied by a clear voice, a boy with deer antlers on his head walked out of the kitchen.

He was not tall, only about 1.6 meters, but he was extremely handsome, even Liu Zheng paled in comparison.

What's even more remarkable is that, despite his androgynous beauty, his features are remarkably defined, without a trace of artificiality.

However, when Lu Tong saw Liu Zheng and his masculine physique, his face was filled with fear, and his body involuntarily shrank back.

"Didn't you tell him why you rescued him?"

Seeing this, Liu Zheng asked.

"No, is there any need to say anything?"

"Hishikibu asked in return."

"Alright. I'll say it myself then."

Liu Zheng beckoned to Lu Tong with his tentacles, signaling him to come over.

Lu Tong trembled slightly, but still obediently walked over.

"Owner."

He bowed respectfully, and then tried to take off his clothes.

"Stop! I'm not your master."

Liu Zheng quickly called out to him.

"The red-crowned crane asked me to rescue you, and it's waiting for you at the entrance of the community now."

"really?"

Lu Tong's originally dim eyes suddenly burst forth with a bright light, and he asked incredulously.

Is there anything else about you that I could lie to?

Liu Zheng countered with a question.

"My lord, what price must we pay?"

Lu Tong calmed down and asked.

"Just help me kill a goose. Oh, and don't start any more businesses in the future, especially don't participate in any Project 404."

he replied.

"Yes, sir, I understand."

Upon hearing the words "Project 404," Lu Tong completely believed it.

"Alright, wait here for a bit. I need to talk to you about something."

Liu Zheng waved his tentacle.

"Yes, my lord."

Lu Tong walked obediently to the door and stood still.

What are you asking me to do now?

Hishibu glanced at him sideways.

"It's about the honorary homeowner thing we talked about last time. Have you spoken to that Wa Chang family yet?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"No. Think about how many things you've assigned me these past few days, and you expect me to do them all for you? Do you think I'm your servant?"

"Hishibu said irritably."

"The capable should do more, after all. Who can blame us when our Lady Hishishiki is beautiful, kind-hearted, knowledgeable, powerful, and always willing to help others?"

He said with a grin.

"I'm not happy at all. If this woman hadn't been blind to have fallen for you, I wouldn't have even glanced at you if you died on the street."

"That's what Hii Shikibu said without any politeness."

“That’s called having a discerning eye. There’s no time like the present, so I think now is a perfect time to visit him.”

He said shamelessly.

"Do you think upper-class socializing is just for you lower-class folks to visit each other? Even if you don't send an invitation beforehand, you should at least prepare a gift, right? What kind of gift can you possibly offer?"

"Hishibu asked in a disdainful tone."

"Is this okay?"

Liu Zheng took out a bottle of gold label.

"Dukang Distillery's gold label is alright, I guess. But when you need to ask someone for a favor, one bottle of gold label isn't enough."

Given Shikibu's family background and her status as a bestselling novelist, Dukang Distillery's gold label isn't particularly rare.

"Then three bottles, plus these."

He then took out two more bottles of gold label liquor, as well as the intestines of the Atlantean god, which were specially prepared for the boy in pajamas.

"It's disgusting, put it away quickly."

"Hishikibu said with disgust."

"Aren't you just selling intestines to their family? Why do you still find it disgusting?"

"That happened so many years ago. Besides, I'm not in charge of that kind of business. Can't the children of sanitation workers find sanitation work disgusting?"

"Hishikibu retorted."

"That's true. Is that enough now?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"More or less. Take this guy away first, then come back later."

"Hishibu gave the order."

"Okay. Let's go."

Liu Zheng raised his chin at Lu Tong and led him back to the entrance of the residential area.

"Crane Maiden!"

"Deer Boy!"

The person and the bird met and immediately embraced each other excitedly, laughing and crying at the same time.

"Daji, keep a close eye on them, don't let anything happen to them, and don't let them escape."

Liu Zheng gave instructions.

"Don't worry, boss. If they dare to run away, I'll shoot them out and use them as medicine for the doctor."

Niu Daji puffed out his chest muscles and said.

Upon hearing the word "arrow," Shikado instinctively made a swallowing motion, then gagged in disgust.

"Stop talking about peeing and urinating all the time. Look, you've disgusted people and made them want to vomit."

Liu Zheng admonished.

"Yes, I won't say it again, hehe."

Niu Daji scratched his head sheepishly.

"Ah."

After arranging for Lu Tong, he returned to 606.

"Let's go, Wa Changming has agreed to see you."

As soon as she entered, Hii ​​Shikibu said.

"Great."

After informing the novelist, Liu Zheng and Fei Shikibu arrived at apartment 201 in building 1, which was the house of the pajama boy.

The doorbell rang three times before the boy in pajamas opened the door.

"This is really interesting. I never imagined that the two of you would get involved in such a short time."

He glanced at Liu Zheng's belly, a playful smile on his face. "Staying at home like you is definitely not related to us. Speaking of which, you really should go out and get around. Our Dajiang family already has few old friends, and if your Wachang family is also gone, we won't even have enough hands to go around."

"Hishikibu retorted."

"Then you should just cut off your fingers until you only have one left."

"That's what the boy in pajamas said coldly."

"You yourself rejected the arranged marriage your family set up, so what right do you have to criticize me?"

"Hey, I bet you haven't gotten a beating in ages. Today I'm going to let you relive your childhood!"

Her eyebrows stood on end.

Since the two were family friends, they naturally spent a lot of time together when they were young, and given their personalities, they naturally became close friends.

"Alright, I'd like to see how much you've improved over the years."

The boy in pajamas also glared at her.

"Stop, stop, stop! We're childhood friends, why do we have to fight the moment we meet? Give me some face, sit down and talk it out."

Liu Zheng quickly intervened to mediate the fight.

"Where do you get your face from? You only have face borrowed from Izanami."

"I didn't see any face, but I did see the guts."

Unsurprisingly, he was met with widespread ridicule.

"Do you two think it's respectable enough?"

He didn't seem to care and smiled as he took out a tape recorder.

Name: Citizen's Testament Recorder (Disposable)

Type: Item

Quality: Excellent

"Effect: Players can speak their last wishes into the tape recorder, which is triggered upon the player's death. If the player's last wish is beyond the item's ability to fulfill, the wish will be fulfilled in a distorted way."

Note: Friendly reminder, the wish for a perfect resurrection after death is impossible.

"Can it be taken out of the instance: No"

"What, are you looking for death now?"

The boy in pajamas sneered.

"Of course not, but I will die one day, and I will most likely die before you. Before that, I will randomly choose one of you to make my last wish."

"As for Hishikibu, she can never get within a kilometer of a novelist, otherwise she will be automatically teleported to a kilometer away."

"If you are a 'Wa Changming', you can never eat intestines or other intestinal foods, or you will turn into a fly-man."

What do you two think?

Liu Zheng asked.

Do you think it can grant your wish?

"Wouldn't it be better if my last wishes exceeded the scope of the items? Then the wishes would be fulfilled in some distorted way. Oh dear, I don't even want to think about how these two wishes would be distorted."

He said calmly.

"I can kill you before you make your wish."

The boy in pajamas's expression changed, and he said in a gloomy tone.

"Then you can see how much I've improved."

Liu Zheng's expression also turned cold.

Even a clay figure has its temper; what makes him feel powerless is the metropolis, not any particular person in the metropolis.

Even if she's a peacock, as long as Liu Zheng is willing to go all out, he can still get her covered in arrows.

What gives a second-generation rich kid who's about to die out the family line the right to act so arrogantly in front of him?

"Of course, we can also choose to sit down and have a good chat, and share the wines and food I've brought."

As the boy in pajamas grew increasingly pale, Liu Zheng suddenly changed his tune and produced fine wine and sausages.

"come in."

The boy in pajamas glanced at the intestines, then looked deeply at Liu Zheng, and said calmly.

"Thank you."

Liu Zheng took the lead and walked into the room.

As soon as he entered, he saw a platform that resembled a shrine, with two glass jars placed side by side on it, containing two sets of intestines soaking in a colorless, transparent liquid.

“Those are my father’s and mother’s intestines.”

Before he could ask, the boy in pajamas offered his explanation.

"I see."

Liu Zheng nodded.

In reality, it's quite normal for people to erect cenotaphs and place an intestinal coffin inside.

Right?

"Please make yourselves at home, I'll go pour you some tea."

After saying that, the boy in pajamas went into the kitchen.

"Do you city people change your attitude so quickly?"

Liu Zheng asked in a low voice.

"Of course, if you can't prove you're qualified to communicate with us on an equal footing, why should we talk to you politely?"

"If we treat everyone with the same courtesy, then we wouldn't have to do anything else all day."

Hii Shikibu spoke in a matter-of-fact tone.

"hehe."

Liu Zheng was too lazy to argue with her, after all, it was a matter of stance rather than right or wrong.

"Drink tea."

The boy in pajamas placed two cups of tea in front of them, but not one for himself.

Liu Zheng picked up his teacup, and an item description popped up.

Name: Intestinal Herbal Tea (Disposable)

Type: Item

Quality: Excellent

"Effect: Increases the player's natural lifespan by one year after use. Repeated use has no effect."

"Note: A flower blooms from inside the intestines, a fully blossoming flower, and then the intestinal fluid is drawn drop by drop as rain falling~"

"Can it be taken out of the instance: Yes"

"I rely on!"

His eyes widened.

The effect of directly increasing lifespan by one year is too powerful. Even if repeated use is ineffective, it's still amazing.

Moreover, it can be taken out of the instance. If it were brought back to the real world and sold to those rich people, people would buy it for hundreds of millions.

"You still have some gut-grown flowers in stock? You've started growing them again?"

Hishibu was also somewhat surprised.

"Why would I plant this? I'm not short of money. I found a few boxes by chance while cleaning up when I went to the ancestral home to worship my ancestors last time."

"That's what the boy in the pajamas said."

"If you're not going to plant them, you might as well transfer the technology and seeds to our family."

"Hishikibu suggested."

If she could help her family acquire the technology to grow enteromorphic flowers, that achievement would be enough for her to live life to the fullest.

"Let's talk about him."

The boy in pajamas looked at Liu Zheng.

Where did you get these intestines?

he asked.

"I don't remember, but it must have been obtained from overseas."

Liu Zheng said.

"is it?"

The boy in his pajamas looked regretful.

He wanted to catch a few more to see if he could raise them.

"But I'm going abroad again soon, maybe I can bring you some more intestines."

Liu Zheng comforted him.

"You remember this?"

"No, but I have other ways."

He spoke vaguely.

"Okay, I've written the recommendation letter."

The boy in pajamas readily agreed, and then quickly took out a pen and paper and wrote a letter of recommendation.

"It's been a pleasure working with you. I'll be going now, you can continue your conversation."

Liu Zheng put the intestinal herbal tea into his system space, then got up and left.

The boy in the pajamas naturally noticed his little action, but didn't say anything.

Liu Zheng returned to the novelist's house, had her write a third letter of recommendation, and then immediately rushed to the property management center.

After paying some costs, he successfully received the honorary homeowner medal.

Name: Green Garden Crazy City Honorary Owner Medal

Type: Equipment

Quality: Excellent

"Effect: Free access to Greenland Crazy City, and cooperation from property staff and residents when working."

"Note: Collecting all five Honorary Owner Medals will grant additional benefits."

"Can it be taken out of the instance: No"

"Great, just three more pieces and you'll have a complete set."

Liu Zheng pinned the two honorary homeowner medals together.

Once he collects all five Honorary Owner Medals and three Legendary Deliveryman Outfits, he can deliver anywhere in the metropolis he wants, and he can make anyone sign for the package.

Even the Speaker of the Parliament has to eat takeout, that's what he said!
