Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

"Goodbye then, wait for my call."

He patted the woman's head on the pot, then swaggered away from the women's bathhouse.

Jinzi was bending over wiping the floor and didn't seem to notice Liu Zheng coming out.

But from her open bosom, a pair of cold eyes were watching him.

"Ok?"

Liu Zheng's gaze swept over, and the resentment swirling around him seemed to have found a vent, surging forth all at once.

"what!"

A scream came from deep within the yukata.

Then, Sumire collapsed onto the floor like a log.

"Sigh, yet another poor soul succumbs to my charm. Being a handsome guy is such a hassle."

He shook his head, wiped his hooves on Sumire's brightly colored yukata, then stepped over her body and left the yakuza bathhouse.

"Huh, the murderous aura on you is gone."

Back in the lounge, Niu Ma glanced at him in surprise and said...

"I thought you'd have to suffer a loss before you realized it, and then I'd mercifully tell you the solution."

It said regretfully.

Although I don't intend to charge him, seeing this kid get his comeuppance is a win for me.

"It was probably just used up."

Liu Zheng recalled the strange behavior of the Extreme Flavor Group and Jinzi just now.

"You can use killing intent?!"

The cattle and horses were truly terrified.

This is an advanced skill; it hasn't even been fully mastered yet.

This kid's got some serious ambitions.

"No, it was probably just a fluke."

He recounted what had happened at the Yakuza bathhouse.

"Oh, that really has nothing to do with you. It's because you have too much resentment clinging to you. Since they can't get rid of you, you go and attack that unlucky guy, taking all the killing intent off you as well."

After listening, the ox and horse said...

"That's pretty good."

Although the murderous aura seemed to have a deterrent effect on these strange residents, it also made it easy to expose their identities.

Liu Zheng is about to attend a high-end banquet with the novelist; who knows if he'll run into people related to the office building.

Even if the novelist can protect him, trouble is still inevitable.

Moreover, he didn't want to owe any more favors to novelists.

"Even if it was by accident, you've still managed to use killing intent. It will be much easier for you to master this ability than for the average person."

The ox and horse said with some envy.

It suffered terribly trying to learn this skill from Oink; it even lost three pairs of armor just from going into the water.

This kid got the ticket without paying any price, which made it so jealous that its horns were itching to get in.

No, I need to find an excuse to beat this kid up.

Just as the ox and horse's gaze grew increasingly hostile, the cell phone suddenly rang.

"What? I was just about to find an excuse to beat this kid up, and you've ruined my train of thought."

The ox and horse said unhappily.

"Then you don't need to look anymore, I'll just deliver an excuse to your door right away."

The bald pheasant's cold voice came through the microphone.

Then, without waiting for the ox or horse to reply, it hung up the phone.

A few seconds later, there was a knock on the door of the lounge.

The heavy wooden planks shook violently as they were struck, as if they would collapse at any moment.

"Big boss?."

Liu Zheng felt uneasy after being knocked on the head and turned to look at the oxen and horses.

"You caused this mess, so you have to clean up the mess yourself."

The cattle and horses didn't even glance at him.

"alright."

He sighed and opened the door.

The white-feathered rooster stood at the door like a statue, with a neatly arranged knife rack at its feet.

"Sigh~"

Liu Zheng gasped.

Judging by this, he'll be subjected to the death by a thousand cuts at least seventeen or eighteen times today.

"Bull and horse, let me in."

The white-feathered rooster gave him a cold look, then spoke to the ox and horse.

"If you come to the door with a knife at your side, no one would dare let you in."

"The cows and horses complained."

"I'm not going to cut you."

"I can't cut anyone, or they'll make me all bloody. How am I supposed to stay here then?"

"The ox and horse said."

"Are you determined to protect your own?"

The white-feathered pheasant's eyes flashed fiercely.

"You should at least explain how this kid offended you this time."

Niu Ma shrugged.

"Hmph, this kid is a traitor, helping outsiders win the game. Don't you think he should be sliced ​​up?"

The white-feathered rooster said in a deep voice.

"Huh? Is that so?"

Niu Ma looked at Liu Zheng.

"No, the Dragonfly Captain is hosting the competition, how can I help?"

He argued.

"Still trying to deny it. Don't think I don't know what happened just because I wasn't there."

"If you hadn't gotten that life-saving item for that woman from the 'Extreme Flavor Group,' this match would have been canceled. She wouldn't have won at all!"

The white-feathered rooster said angrily.

“Even if I don’t help her, she will sacrifice herself to finish the soup pot, which will not affect the outcome of the competition.”

Liu Zheng shook his head.

"That woman didn't die, and that's the biggest impact. Everyone who betrayed me will pay the price."

A faint red glow emanated from the chef's hat of the white-feathered chicken.

"I understand now. That woman tricked you, so go find her. Why are you asking my little brother?"

The ox and horse said slowly.

"If it weren't for him, that woman would be dead."

The white-feathered chicken emphasized.

"If you hadn't been so blindly confident, you wouldn't have lost the competition. For the head chef of a prestigious restaurant like Bloodstained to lose to someone who doesn't even have a signboard, no matter the reason, it's a disgrace, isn't it?"

The ox and horse retorted sharply.

"Are you determined to protect this human being today?"

"If I'm a big shot, how can I maintain my position if you can easily take down my underlings?"

The ox and horse finally stood up and walked to the door.

"it is good."

The white-feathered pheasant picked up the knife holder and turned to leave.

"Hey, don't be in such a hurry. It's not like I'm not going to tell you or stop you from venting your anger."

The oxen and horses called out to it.

"what?"

Liu Zheng looked at it with a puzzled expression.

He was even touched for a second just now.

"What do you mean 'oh'? When I go on vacation, you'll still have to deal with the kitchen. If you don't let it vent its anger, no one will protect you later."

The ox and horse spoke in front of the white-feathered chicken.

"Humph."

That's exactly what the white-feathered chicken thought.

As long as cattle and horses are not around, it has a million ways to kill this human.

"Ok."

People under the eaves have to bow their heads.

"However, it's impossible for you to slice him into pieces. Didn't you still have him help you blow up the lottery shop? If his strength is weakened, he won't be able to help you much."

Niu Ma suddenly changed the subject.

"Hmph, I'll give him as much nutrition as he cuts. I may not have much else, but I have plenty of supplements."

The white-feathered rooster said proudly.

"We've known each other for so many years, what kind of underhanded tricks are you trying to pull here? You just want him to do your work for free, don't you?"

The oxen and horses finally got too lazy to go in circles.

"Can't I afford to pay even a little bit of compensation?"

“You’re not afraid of not being able to pay him, you’re afraid he won’t do the work for you.”

Niu Ma pointed out incisively.

"The owner of that lottery shop must be someone important. Otherwise, with your status, even if you couldn't get out, you could have found someone to take care of him for you."

"Humph."

The white-feathered pheasant did not refute this.

"This kid is involved in a lot of things right now. If you ruin him, you'll be in big trouble too. So it's best to be honest."

"This kid is quite efficient, if nothing else."

The oxen and horses offered their advice.

"Let's go inside and talk."

The white-feathered rooster remained silent for a moment before speaking.

"Okay, come in."

The ox and horse nodded.
