Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis
Page 289
"Can't we send oxen or horses to deliver it?"
Liu Zheng probed.
Better to die than to die myself. Anyway, I didn't die last time, so I probably won't die this time either.
Moreover, his request for favors from the white-feathered chicken was originally intended for the cattle and horses.
If you pay in advance, it shouldn't be a big problem.
“If you don’t go, that woman will keep placing orders, and I don’t want to keep hiring new employees.”
"Moreover, the longer you drag this out, the angrier that woman will become, and you will only suffer a more terrible fate."
Si Xue said.
"So what if I die? What difference does it make how miserable I am?"
Since he was handling orders to transport the dead, he spoke more casually.
"You're overthinking it, humans. Metropolis has plenty of ways to make life worse than death."
Si Xue sneered.
She herself has mastered no less than a hundred kinds.
"Was my bombing of the office building a dispute over a food delivery order?"
"Yes, so she just kept placing orders. If it weren't for the food delivery dispute, there would have been a whole company of security guards waiting for you outside the restaurant."
Si Xue said.
Do you really think such a top-tier boss has no temper? Especially since the troublemakers are from the Bloody Restaurant.
Si Xue enjoyed seeing Kong Que get his comeuppance, and Kong Que longed to see Si Xue break down.
Is there absolutely no room for maneuver?
Liu Zheng tried to save him one last time.
"No."
Si Xue shook her head.
It's not just the peacock; the will of the city hall and the restaurant itself is also reflected here.
This human is involved in far too many complicated matters, and his ability to cause trouble is far too strong.
Whether it's the city hall or a restaurant, what they need is stability.
While they might not specifically target a single delivery driver, that doesn't mean they can't use someone else to do their dirty work.
"alright, I got it."
Liu Zheng nodded.
"Then can you grant me a few requests, boss?"
he asked.
"If this is your last wish, then it's not impossible. After all, I still owe you a reward."
Si Xue nodded.
"No, the reward is something else; this is a deal."
Liu Zheng shook his head.
"A deal? You and me? On what grounds?"
Si Xue asked three questions in a row, a mocking smile on her face.
Does this human really think he can stand on equal footing with a true powerhouse?
It's important to understand that the main reason Liu Zheng could use threats and inducements everywhere was because he was an employee of the Bloody Restaurant.
And she is the owner of the Bloody Restaurant.
To put it bluntly, whether she wanted to kill him or not was a matter of choice.
"I can make the peacock lose face."
Liu Zheng said calmly.
Once his death was inevitable, he let go of all his burdens.
His numerous near-death experiences and his ability to turn small risks into big wins gave him an unspoken confidence in his voice.
Si Xue sensed this confidence and her expression gradually became serious.
"Tell me."
She leaned back into the platinum throne and sprawled out in a relaxed, reclining position.
Her two long legs were casually spread apart, brazenly showcasing the apartment's excellent natural light and ventilation.
Unfortunately, Liu Zheng is not in the mood for appreciation right now.
"Is this enough?"
He took out his teething stick.
"The Tindaros Hounds may be a big problem for others, but they're nothing more than dogs to us. You'd be better off summoning Mushisha."
Si Xue shook her head.
"Is this enough?"
Liu Zheng removed the gold star tank medal from his chest.
"This is even less useful to us. You could use it to protect yourself if you were delivering food for the Chaos Club. Of course, it might also have the opposite effect."
Si Xue glanced at it and said.
"What about these?"
He took out almost all of his belongings.
"A pile of junk, only this coffin is somewhat interesting."
Si Xuerui commented on Liu Zheng's collection, then stared at the belongings of the sea woman's mother for a few moments.
"Will adding this be enough?"
Although Liu Zheng planned to use it when he encountered the Chaos Club, it wouldn't be a waste to use it on Peacock.
"Maybe it's enough, maybe it's not. We'll only know once we open it."
Si Xue shook her head.
If she weren't the boss, Liu Zheng would have rolled his eyes to the heavens.
Who knows if this thing is disposable? Now that we've opened it, even if we knew it would be useful, it's too late.
Of course, he didn't place his hopes on the coffin.
"These items all came from different sources."
Liu Zheng said.
"I see it."
With Si Xue's keen eyesight, she could naturally tell that it carried a different aura.
"I owe them a lot of favors, and they owe me a lot of favors too."
"I asked them to deliver my takeout, but they probably don't have the guts or the ability."
“But if I ask them to help me cause trouble, they will definitely help, and they are very capable.”
He said with a confident expression.
Si Xue glanced at the messy pile of items, then at Liu Zheng, and suddenly raised an eyebrow.
"Interesting. Tell me, what do you want to ask of me?"
she asked.
"The first thing is to ensure that Niu Ma leaves the company safely, and that he can take over the restaurant's smuggling business afterwards."
Liu Zheng said without hesitation.
"You've got some nerve, daring to order me around in handling restaurant personnel matters."
Si Xue sneered.
"They're almost dead, their gallbladders will turn to shit if they're not used soon."
He said it humbly.
"Hmph, I know nothing about smuggling. I'll just pretend I didn't see it."
"That's okay."
The hardest thing to obtain is the right to enter the market; I believe NiuMa can handle the rest on their own.
"The second thing is to heal Ghost Hand's injuries."
He continued.
"it is good."
Si Xue readily agreed.
The wounds on Ghost Hand's body were punishment in themselves.
With Liu Zheng dead, all of its schemes were in vain, and that was the greatest punishment.
"The third thing, please help me postpone the peacock order a little longer."
Liu Zheng continued.
"Sure, but we can postpone it by one more order at most."
Si Xue agreed.
She knew that this human was trying to buy time to make more preparations.
She was also curious whether, given some time, this human could actually create a miracle.
"Any more?"
Si Xue asked.
"Nothing."
Liu Zheng shook his head.
Everything else is outside the restaurant's business, and Si Xue probably won't help with that.
"On another note, boss."
A question suddenly occurred to him.
"If I can really make the peacock lose face and then come back alive, can you protect me?"
"You haven't even made any preparations, and you're already thinking about what will happen after you come back?"
Si Xue looked at him strangely.
Isn't this human's heart a bit too big?
"Consider victory before defeat."
Liu Zheng said with a grin.
"If you can really make that woman lose face and come back alive, even if the vice speaker comes to your door demanding her, I will guarantee your safety."
Si Xue said, enunciating each word clearly.
Chapter 234 Britain: I Want You to Be My Toy
If the Speaker of the Supreme Council comes to our door, are we just going to hand him over to him?
Liu was internally complaining.
However, he also knew that this was the biggest promise Si Xue could make.
