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

Chapter 705 Helping the Cattle and Horses Rescue People

After thoroughly searching his body, Liu Zheng found the following items:

Rust gave someone an autobiography, which also had the signature of what appeared to be the driver's leader.

The Ritual Blade given by the Miniature Man can be used to summon mythical creatures through rituals and can be used as a teleportation tool over a very large area.

The horn given by Xue Ma can be heard and its location confirmed when Xue Ma is within ten kilometers of him.

The poacher's notebook that Shi Tiantian gave him, according to Dr. Nile, should be the diary of a believer.

The fisherman gave me river mussels that take three hundred years to mature, but absorbing the essence of seawater can shorten their growth time.

The turtle shell given by the pond owner can be used by reciting "When will I shed my shell and be reborn as a human?" It is said to be able to withstand even the attacks of peacocks, but after use, you will turn into a turtle spirit, and you can only turn back into a turtle spirit if you cultivate into a human or are killed by having your shell broken.

The three-time Outstanding Employee Medal awarded to Niu Ma can offset the penalty for failed food delivery, and it must have other uses as well.

Si Xue had the Three-Five Evil-Slaying Sword taken for repair. If it could be determined, it would be at least an epic-level equipment, but unfortunately, it couldn't be.

It must be said that this inventory was really necessary.

Putting aside everything else, he has basically forgotten about the four items: his autobiography, the tortoise shell, the clam, and the notebook.

After the inventory was completed, Liu Zheng was full of confidence for the goose-killing operation.

With so many extraordinary items, even piling them up would kill a black swan.

"I wonder what it will perform today. If it performs 'The Dying Swan,' that would be very fitting."

he thought.

After finishing his preparations, Liu Zheng started playing games to pass the time.

Although the gameplay of the game in Metropolis is somewhat inferior to that of reality, the unique art style due to the coexistence of extraordinary races makes it quite interesting to play.

Take, for example, the simulation game he's playing now. He plays an evil human sorcerer who adopts a succubus as his daughter. The game involves improving his succubus daughter's beauty, intelligence, magic, physical abilities, and willpower, with the goal of raising her to become the number one succubus in the metropolis, excelling in all aspects of beauty, intelligence, magic, physical abilities, and willpower.

Another crucial hidden stat in the game is morality. If the morality value is too high, the succubus daughter will trigger the "good depravity" ending, and then depending on her interpersonal relationships, she will become a Taoist priest, nun, nun, exam taker, etc.

If the succubus daughter and the protagonist have a high enough level of affection, she will even take the protagonist to become a nun together, which is absolutely terrifying.

Given Liu Zheng's personality, he would naturally want to achieve the "good and bad" ending after discovering this hidden value.

He even tried the most difficult City Hall route, where the succubus daughter earned the opportunity to participate in the internal recruitment by serving the City Hall officials alongside the protagonist, and successfully became a formal employee of the City Hall.

Next, you need to continue improving your attributes, build good relationships with all sorts of people, develop your own human resources and influence, thereby advancing your position and collecting evidence of the municipal official's crimes. After dismissing him, you can send him to work in a brothel in the black market.

According to the game's built-in walkthrough, the final outcome of this storyline is to become the ruler of the metropolis.

Of course, the metropolis here isn't called a metropolis, the city hall isn't called a city hall, and the ruler isn't called the Supreme Councilor.

Unfortunately, just as he became the section chief, Ghost Hand crawled in from outside the door.

Liu Zheng glanced at his phone; it was 5 p.m.

"After this order is delivered, the red-crowned cranes can order takeout."

he thought.

If you can't order the red-crowned crane, then let the deer order it. There's always a price to pay for regaining freedom.

Just as he was about to pick up the takeout order, the shadow of cattle and horses suddenly loomed over him.

"What's wrong, boss?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"I'll deliver this order, and give me back the commemorative medal."

"The ox and horse said."

"Why don't you tell me what exactly happened?"

He did not do as instructed.

It wasn't that he was reluctant to part with the commemorative medal, but rather that he wanted to know what had happened.

When the ox and horse delivered takeout to the peacock before, they didn't ask for commemorative medals. Something big must have happened this time.

"Boss, even if you don't think about your wife, you should at least think about me. I spent so many points to exchange for the fertility medicine for you guys, we can't just let it go to waste like this."

Liu Zheng said.

"Why do you always say such strange things?"

The ox and horse squinted and said.

"That's not important. Just tell me, what is it?"

"Our band's keyboard is called Yellow Monkey."

After a moment of silence, the ox and horse spoke.

“I remember. There were four of you: you, Red Pig, Black Claw, and Yellow Monkey.”

He nodded.

"Yes. I'm the bassist, Red Pig is the drummer, Yellow Monkey is the keyboardist, and Black Claw is the guitarist and lead vocalist. Actually, there's also Oink, but he's not very mobile, so he only joins when we perform on the black market as the lead vocalist. But he wrote a lot of our band's songs."

"The ox and horse said."

"I didn't know Oink could write songs."

Liu Zheng asked in surprise.

"You didn't realize it, did you? It also loves writing love songs, the kind that can make even a succubus's eyes light up with love. Of course, it's also because I set the mood so well."

The ox and horse took the opportunity to praise themselves.

"I understand. The less romantic a young man is, the more likely he is to imagine a touching love story."

He said this with deep feeling.

Back in junior high, he could write several love poems in one night, but after graduation, he couldn't even write a romance novel.

"Ahem, don't say that to its face, unless I'm not around."

"The ox and horse said."

"I know, I didn't eat anything that damaged my brain. So what's wrong with the yellow monkey?"

Liu Zheng then circled back to the main topic.

"It has a younger brother who is also its son. He was caught cheating at a casino. The other party contacted me and asked me how to handle the matter."

"The ox and horse said."

"How much does it cost?"

"It's not just about money. He not only cheated, but also injured the casino owner's men and slept with the casino owner's woman."

The ox and horse shook their heads.

"Boss, your nephew is a bit of a troublemaker."

Someone who can commit so many dangerous acts at once is no ordinary person.

"If it weren't so dirty, would I not have hired it into the delivery department?"

Niu Ma sneered.

Although being a delivery driver for a bloody restaurant is a high-risk job, the danger level can be greatly reduced if you have a cow or horse to guide you.

When the yellow monkey's son matures, the ox and horse will have accumulated enough initial capital. Then they can find a way to leave the restaurant, with the ox and the monkey's son, one outside and one inside, making money hand over fist.

At least for Niu Ma at that time, finding a good brother's son as a successor was definitely more reliable than finding a newcomer.

The reason they didn't do that was naturally because the monkey's son was even less reliable than the newcomer.

"So we don't care?"

Liu Zheng asked tentatively.

He's not the kind of person who's overly kind; he only saves people who are salvageable.

This kind of person, who can't control their hands or their behavior, is just polluting the air.

"Of the five of us, only Huang Hou has a baby. I even held it when it was little. I can't just leave it like this."

The ox and horse shook their heads.

"Then let me handle the negotiations. Don't worry, I guarantee I'll bring it back intact within five million."

Liu Zheng volunteered.

"Then what about the five million?"

The ox and horse's expressions shifted, and they tentatively asked.

"Boss, even close brothers should keep clear accounts. You can owe me the money now, but you'll have to pay it back later."

He said seriously.

"whispering sound."

The ox and horse pursed their lips.

"Go if you want, but give me the pen and paper."

It bit the pen and wrote down the address and phone number on the paper.

"New Grape Hotel?"

Liu Zheng glanced at the address and made a puzzled sound.

"This is a casino hotel, with gambling, accommodation, dining, bathing, fitness and everything else."

"It's like a cow and a horse," Niu Ma explained.

"Oh, sounds like a tough one."

He stroked his chin as he spoke.

"If it weren't a tough opponent, would I need to use a food delivery as an excuse to go? I could have taken care of it in the time it takes to go for a walk." Niu Ma rolled his eyes.

"You're quite adept at maneuvering around that bend."

Liu Zheng squinted and said.

The New Grape Hotel is farther from the Bloody Restaurant than from the cemetery; it would take cattle and horses at least forty or fifty minutes to walk there normally.

"You talk too much nonsense. Are you going or not? If not, I'll go by myself."

The ox and horse said irritably.

"Go away, go away. Sigh, these days it's the boss who borrows money and asks for favors. It's really hard being a subordinate."

He sighed, picked up the takeout order, and left the break room.

"Dish: Exquisitely Carved Banana Peel"

Address: Meeting Room 3, 57th Floor, Xinpu Hotel

"Orderer: Hou Taotao"

Time Limit: One Hour

"This Hou Taotao must be Huang Hou's son."

Liu Zheng muttered to himself.

Niu Ma was quite thoughtful, letting Hou Taotao order takeout herself, which gave her plenty of time.

etc.
"Did this guy plan to trick me all along?"

Liu thought to himself with a strange expression.

Oh well, let them scam each other. They've been scamming each other for a long time.

Since the goal is to talk about numbers and rescue people, one cannot go alone.

He called Niu Daji, A Bao, and the Jiwei group, briefly explained what had happened, and then asked them to meet at the clinic entrance.

Then he opened the lunchbox, inside which was a banana peel torn into four pieces, each piece carved with one of the four mythical beasts: the Azure Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermilion Bird, and the Black Tortoise. They were so lifelike and vivid, showcasing the chef's superb carving skills.

Name: Carved Banana Peel

Type: Miscellaneous Items

Quality: Average

Effect: None

"Note: An ordinary banana peel has acquired a certain aesthetic value due to the excellent carving."

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

"Um"

It's not that it's useless, it's just that it's truly useless.

Liu Zheng packed up his lunchbox and left the restaurant.

While driving, he made phone calls to Silver Wolf and Ace.

With both casinos and hotels, the Municipal Administration of Market Supervision and the Ministry of Public Security should be able to regulate it.

"what's up?"

The first person I called was Silver Wolf.

"Brother-in-law, a friend of mine's nephew has been detained by the New Grape Hotel. Do you know anyone there?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"I don't know them. Although the hotel industry is also under our jurisdiction, the main management is still under the Public Security Department."

Silver Wolf replied.

Especially since the New Grape Hotel is also a casino, it falls even more under the jurisdiction of the Public Security Department.

The city hall's attitude toward casinos is very ambiguous; it has neither legislated against them nor explicitly permitted them.

Just like when registering a casino, if you directly name it "XX Casino," the process will definitely be blocked, and paying money won't help.

But even if you openly run a casino business, or even advertise in newspapers or on television, as long as you've taken care of the relevant departments, no one will bother you.

However, when the city hall wants to intervene, it has plenty of ways to do so.

"Okay, I'll contact the Public Security Department."

Liu Zheng said.

"Okay, if you can't find anyone else, tell me and I'll think of something."

"Silver Wolf said."

"okay."

After hanging up, he called Ace again.

"Hey bro, do you know about the New Grape Hotel?"

Liu Zheng cut to the chase and asked.

"I know, it's the New Grape Casino, a lot of people in our Logistics Department like to go there to play."

The ace replied.

"That's great. There's something I need your help with."

He briefly explained Hou Taotao's situation.

"Brother Zheng, this is not a good situation."

After listening, Ace said...

"Is the background very powerful?"

"It's not a matter of background. I mentioned that many of my colleagues like to gamble there. They've all lost money to varying degrees. Some have had their winnings wiped out, while others still owe money. Regardless, they all owe the casino a favor. If I use the Ministry of Public Security to pressure the casino, the casino will definitely use them to pressure me back. In the end, it will be another messy lawsuit."

Ace said.

"I didn't realize that Brother Pai knew so much about the gossip in the department."

Liu Zheng teased.

"Sigh, I don't want to listen, but they just want to talk. Besides, I'm basically always in the ministry, so it's hard not to hear about it."

Ace said helplessly.

"Okay, then I'll think of another way."

He was about to hang up the phone when he said that.

"Wait, Zheng-ge, are you planning to use a softer approach or a harder one?"

The ace called out to him.

"Start with the soft approach, and if that doesn't work, try the hard approach."

Liu Zheng has already offended Kong Que, so it doesn't matter if he offends Xin Putao Hotel as well.

As for the others, Niu Daji and Panda are his underlings. They would follow him even if he had to go through fire and water. Backing out is another matter.

The Extreme Flavor Group is a gang, so doing things like arguing and maintaining order is part of their job.

"Okay, if you get there first, wait for me at the hotel entrance, and I'll go with you."

Ace thought for a moment and said.

"Okay, thank you, Brother Pai."

"We're all brothers, no need to be so polite. I won't be polite when I need your help anyway."

Ace chuckled.

"No way. If you want my help, you have to kowtow three times and call me 'Grandpa'."

Liu Zheng joked.

"Sure, you said it yourself, so don't cover your ears and refuse to listen later."

Ace said.

"I was wrong, Brother Pai, please forgive me."

He almost forgot that Ace's father was a Planeswalker.

If the other party knew he had an extra father figure, he probably wouldn't even bother settling the account.

"Ha ha!"

Ace hung up the phone triumphantly.

Even the First Criminal Investigation Bureau couldn't make Liu Zheng suffer, but he could. Therefore, he is greater than the First Criminal Investigation Bureau.

He, Beals Khomeini, wins!
Upon arriving at the clinic, Liu loaded everyone into the car, and then drove off to the Grand Lisboa Hotel.

To buy time, he floored the accelerator.

The engine was running at full power, and the stored Netherworld power was fully utilized. The bone dragon exoskeleton covering the surface of the hearse came to life, raising its head and letting out a terrifying howl, while pale Netherworld fire spewed from its tail.

What should have been a 20-minute drive took him less than 10 minutes.

Fortunately, the people on the bus were not ordinary people, otherwise several would have died from motion sickness before the fight even started.

"arrive."

Liu Zheng slammed on the brakes, and the Bone Dragon plunged its claws into the concrete, bringing the car to a complete stop.
