Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

Ten million was more than enough for him; enough to hire oxen and horses to deliver food until the dungeon was settled.

However, Liu Zheng still has no intention of helping.

Such sordid affairs within wealthy families are a source of trouble, let alone getting involved.

Nightingale's father might not punish his most beloved daughter for killing her brothers and sisters, but he certainly wouldn't let him off as an accomplice.

In disputes outside of work, it's hard to say how much being a bloody restaurant employee can help.

"I can't earn this money. However, I can ask around to see if there's anyone willing to do so."

After Liu Zheng finished speaking, he immediately dialed Niu Ma's number.

"what?"

The ox and horse asked impatiently.

"Boss, I have good news and bad news. Which do you want to hear first?"

"bad news."

"The nightingale is penniless now, she has no money to give us."

Liu Zheng said.

"Damn it! Then put this woman back in the city hall jail."

The ox and horse cursed.

"We'll talk about this later. Let's hear the good news first."

"What good news?"

"The good news is that she offered us an opportunity to earn ten million."

"How many?!"

The cattle and horses let out a shriek.

"Ten million."

Liu Zheng repeated it.

"Holy crap, if I had ten million, what would I be doing smuggling? What would that woman want us for?"

The ox and horse asked excitedly.

"Let's kill all her brothers and sisters."

"Then I'll just stick to my smuggling business."

The sounds of the oxen and horses subsided.

"Boss, it's just killing a few people, what's there to be afraid of? At worst, we'll take the money and find a safe place to hide."

He urged.

"Hide?"

The ox and horse sneered.

"Where in this world is there a place that is absolutely safe? Even if you hide in the sewers, those bounty hunters can still find you."

"Then let's smuggle ourselves out and leave here."

Liu Zheng seized the opportunity to speak.

"Smuggling? You wish. The city hall's border control department is a hundred times more powerful than the security bureau. Not a single spore can escape without permission."

The ox and horse sneered.

There really is a border!

Hearing what the ox and horse said, his eyes widened.

This has actually been a question that Liu Zheng has always had.

Is this world a real world, or a virtual world constructed by the Hell Game?

If this city has no borders, or if these strange inhabitants are unaware of the border issue, then it must be a fictional world.

But since the cow and horse clearly stated that there is a border, and even a department like the Border Management Bureau, then this world is more than 80% likely to be a real world.

I wonder what it's like outside the border?

"Boss, can we discuss this outside the border?"

Liu Zheng asked tentatively.

"We can discuss it, but nobody wants to discuss it with you."

"The ox and horse said."

"why?"

"Because nobody knows what it's like outside the border."

"Only those with special permission from the city hall can leave the country, and once they enter, they forget what happened outside the border and only remember it the next time they leave."

"The ox and horse said."

"How do you know it?"

"It was that relative who works as a food deliveryman at the city hall who told me."

"Having connections is really helpful."

Liu Zheng sighed.

"Yes, otherwise why would I try to claim kinship with other cattle and horses after I got out?"

"The ox and horse said."

"So you're sure you're not going to do this deal?"

"No way. I don't believe that woman has no redeeming qualities at all. You go ahead and squeeze her dry, and if you can't squeeze her dry, I'll squeeze you dry."

"The ox and horse said fiercely."

"understood."

He hung up the phone and looked at Nightingale.

"Did you hear that? My boss told me to really squeeze you dry."

"I don't mind. But who's going to exploit whom is anyone's guess."

The nightingale stretched out a long leg and swished it along his hoof.

"Alright, stop with the flirting. Give me the payment the dams promised first."

Liu Zhengyi reached out and slapped her leg down, making a crisp "snap" sound.

"You really have no sense of romance. Here, take it."

Nightingale took a box from her breast and threw it on the table.

The grayish-white stone box is only the size of a palm and looks more like a coffin.

Liu Zheng picked up the box with his tentacles, feeling a strange sense of unease, as if he were holding a "Tsar Bomba".

What alarmed him even more was that the system did not display any item notifications.

What do you mean?

Did the female diver not really intend to give this thing to him?

No, if that's the case, then Nightingale has absolutely no reason to meet him.

Moreover, given their current situation, there are still many areas where they need to collaborate with him.

Or perhaps the true owner of the box, the nightingale's mother, did not die, so there was no transfer of ownership?

Liu Zheng couldn't think of an answer for a moment, but it didn't really matter.

Anyway, this thing is a special weapon for the "Chaos Club", and he already knows how to use it.

"gone."

Liu Zheng patted his behind and prepared to leave.

This time, it wasn't convenient because of the table, so he took a picture of himself.

"You're really not going to help me?"

Nightingale rested her hands on the table and tilted her head to look at him.

"I can't help. Besides, with my abilities, I'd be lucky if I didn't hold you back."

Liu Zheng shook his head.

"You have such a wide network of connections, could you help us make some connections?"

The nightingale perseveres.

"Those with enough strength don't have time, and those with time don't have enough strength."

As he was speaking, a sudden inspiration struck him.

"However, there are still opportunities to make a little money."

"what chance?"

The nightingale became interested.

She didn't want to keep living off the female divers, and besides, the female divers didn't have much rice to feed her.

Besides, she needs some initial funding to rebel against her father's sanctions.

"Wait a minute, let me ask her if she's willing to tell you."

Liu Zheng walked to the side and made a phone call to the vampire girl.

"Hey, I've found you a helper."

"Really?! Who is it? Your big boss?"

"I can't believe it," the vampire girl asked curiously.

"No, it's the female diver and her blond lover."

He said.

"Oh, those two? Their strength is about the same. Are they reliable?"

"I think for a moment and then I say," the vampire girl said.

"It's alright, I have something on both of them. I can tell them if you want."

"Then are you going?"

"I asked the vampire girl."

"I dont go."

Her story is actually quite similar to the Nightingale's; the only difference is the amount of wealth they possess.

"Then tell them that I'll take 40%, and you'll take 60%. As for how to divide the 60%, you can discuss it yourselves."

The vampire girl came up with a solution.

"Row."

After hanging up the phone, Liu Zheng looked at Nightingale.

Chapter 137 Gravesite Takeout: A Must-Try

"The mission is to help the receptionist at the 'Red Witch' board game arcade steal the inheritance. She gets 40%, I get 20%, and you two split the remaining 40%."

Liu Zheng said.

"We can take only 30%."

Nightingale shook her head.

"What do you mean?"
