Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

"Of course, it'll include both the person and the shop. If you can torture that bastard before you die, I'll give you extra compensation."

The white-feathered rooster said resentfully.

"Alright, I can accept your commission. But I have a few conditions."

Liu Zheng said.

"You said."

"First, you'll have to handle the takeout orders and the explosives yourself."

"Secondly, if I find that things don't go as planned with my extravagant human nature, I can end the commission."

"Third, I don't want any payment, but you'll owe me a favor."

He stated them one by one.

The white-feathered pheasant grew increasingly impatient, and when it heard the third point, it flew into a rage.

Its chef's hat clapped like a rooster's comb, and its imposing presence was sharper than its kitchen knife.

"Human, I warn you you'd better not play with fire."

The white-feathered pheasant said coldly.

"If he's asking for an exorbitant price, just bargain down to the spot. Even if you can't reach an agreement, you can still be friendly even if the deal falls through."

Niu Ma appeared behind Liu Zheng without him noticing.

"What sense of righteousness or loyalty do I have towards him?"

The white-feathered chicken scoffed.

"If you put it that way, I'll expose your secrets, like that four-in-one thing from last time."

"Shut up! If you keep nagging, I'll cut off your other horn too."

The white-feathered chicken pulled out "Gluttony" and threatened.

"Tch, as if I'm afraid of you."

The ox and the horse argued fiercely, but didn't continue.

"I want him to die a horrible death."

The white-feathered chicken stared at Liu Zheng and said.

"no problem"

No one who died at his hands escaped a terrible fate.

Hmm, saying that makes him sound a bit perverted.

Forget it, so be it.

"Okay, I agree to your terms."

The white-feathered chicken said.

He shoved the pot, worth a million, into Liu Zheng's arms and turned to leave.

"Holy crap, it's so hot!"

Liu Zheng shouted and quickly put the pot on the ground.

Of course, it was placed very carefully.

He looked at his tentacles with lingering fear; the purplish-black shells were still red from the heat.

"Let's see how arrogant you are."

The cattle and horses gloated.

"It was just normal communication, where's the arrogance?"

He defended himself.

"For a newcomer like you to negotiate with the department head is arrogant enough. Do you think everyone is as easy to talk to as me?"

Niu Ma curled his lip and said.

"That's because you're here, big shot, that's why I dared to negotiate."

Liu Zheng offered flattery.

"Tch, a dog relying on its master's power. No, a master relying on a dog's power. Hmm? That doesn't seem quite right either. Oh well, let's leave it at that."

The ox and horse lay back down on the haystack and continued studying the chess endgame.

He smiled, took out his phone, and called Guokou Tangzi.

"The soup is ready."

Liu Zheng said.

"it is good."

Guo Kou Tangzi gave a brief reply and then hung up the phone.

He could vaguely hear the shrieking sound of a pressure cooker spewing steam.

Soon, the ghost hand crawled in from the movable board.

Compared to three days ago, the wound on its back showed no signs of improvement, and the golden lava still shimmered.

He sighed, and stopped Ghost Hand as it placed the takeout order and prepared to leave, then pointed to the wound on its back.

The ghost hand grew a mouth, revealed a smile, and then shook its palm.

Liu Zheng didn't know if it meant it was incurable, couldn't be cured, or told him to ignore it.

Anyway, Ghost Hand refused his offer and left the lounge.

He picked up the takeout order and looked at the contents.

"Meal: One serving of sesame tofu"

Address: Jidao Qiantang (a type of public bathhouse).

"Orderer: Guokou Tangzi"

Time Limit: One Hour

Liu Zheng put away his phone, thought for a moment, and then called Spider Weaver Girl.

"Squeak."

The Spider Woman called out twice and then hung up the phone.

Soon, it crawled out of the shadows on the ceiling.

"I plan to buy spider silk from your relative. Could you please tell me their address?"

Liu Zheng took out a map.

"Squeak."

The Spider Maiden cried out and slowly descended from the ceiling.

"Are you ready? I'm going to open my eyes now."

He opened his eyes after giving the reminder.

To his surprise, the Spider Maiden did not freeze this time; instead, she was swaying slightly, as if she were dancing.

"Could a whole insect feast cure social anxiety?"

Liu Zheng thought to himself, somewhat puzzled.

But when he looked at the Spider Maiden's head, he immediately understood why.

It turned out that the Spider Maiden had closed her eyes. No one knew where a spider got its eyelids, one single and one double.

Do you want me to get double eyelid surgery on both sides?

Liu Zheng asked, as if possessed.

"Squeak!"

The Spider Woman shook her large head in terror, as if she were about to run away.

"Haha, just kidding, just kidding."

He said quickly.

Looking at the map, the spider legs are pointing to the northwest corner.

It's not close; it's about 20 kilometers from the restaurant.

What are the distinctive features of the store?

Liu Zheng asked.

"Squeak."

"Hey bro, could you help me translate this?"

he shouted.

"Ugh, so annoying! Can't you see I'm busy?"

The ox and horse said angrily, which frightened the spider weaver so much that she trembled twice more.

"Want me to buy your sister-in-law some sexy lingerie? Does your relative's shop have any?"

Liu Zheng looked at the Spider Weaver, who nodded.

"Hmm, make it say it again."

Niu Ma put down the erotic magazine he was reading.

"Squeak."

"It said the store is very conspicuous, you'll know it as soon as you see it."

The ox and horse translator said.

"OK. Go back to studying the endgame."

Liu Zheng waved his tentacles.

"Hmph. I like red."

After Niu Ma finished speaking, he ignored him.

After seeing off the Spider Weaver, Liu Zheng also left the lounge.

Open the food container on the food cart, and you'll find a small piece of tofu, topped with a thick layer of sesame sauce.

Name: Sesame Tofu

Type: Item

Quality: Average

Effect: Restores stamina.

"Note: If you dare let them order this again, I'll make grilled squid with your tentacles!"

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

"Uh"

It seems that Guokou Tangzi's financial situation isn't very good either, no wonder they're so eager to gain the approval of the Bloody Restaurant's head chef so they can regain their reputation.

As for the warning in the notes, Liu Zheng didn't pay much attention to it.

He's done sashimi several times already; it's just a plate of tentacles, nothing special.

After packing the food containers into the delivery box, Liu Zheng called another car.

Although there's enough time if you run fast, there's no need to rush, and what if there's an unexpected situation?

Given his physique, which is comparable to that of a hero, the probability of triggering random events is not low.

Upon hearing that Liu was going to buy materials for making uniforms, the driver took it upon himself to rent an F1 racing car for him and then drove it himself.

The driver covered a distance of over 20 kilometers and arrived at the destination in just five minutes.
