Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

"That's what Shizuko said."

He opened his eyes as instructed, and a pot of steaming chicken soup appeared before him.

"Holy crap, there really is chicken soup. Where's the spoon?"

he asked subconsciously.

"No need, please open your mouth."

"That's what Shizuko said."

Liu Zheng opened his mouth, and what happened shocked him.

One after another, the stewed chickens, cooked until tender, jumped out of the pot, then trotted up to him and leaped into his mouth like they were diving.

Liu Zheng subconsciously took a bite, and the salty, savory, and rich flavor entered his brain.

“It tastes pretty good.”

He licked his lips, then opened his mouth wide.

One, two, three.

After eating sixty-six chickens, Shizuko's voice finally rang out again.

"Meditation time is over. Please close your eyes."

Liu Zheng closed his eyes, and darkness enveloped him once again. The feeling of fullness made him involuntarily burp.

"Hiccup~ Am I really full?"

he asked.

"No, everything just now was an illusion. After the massage, the feeling of fullness will disappear, and your appetite will be stimulated. Depending on the type of essential oil you choose, the subsequent dishes will also be adjusted."

"That's what Shizuko said."

"Oh, that explains why I don't feel any pressure in my stomach."

Liu Zheng suddenly realized.

He just ordered chicken fat, so there probably won't be any chicken dishes during the meal, at least not chicken soup.

"Are you ready? I'm about to begin the massage."

Jingzi asked.

"let's start."

He nodded.

A pair of smooth, cool little hands were placed on Liu Zheng's back, and then wandered and stroked along his muscle lines.

As she moved, a warm sensation traveled along his muscle fibers and spread throughout the muscles of his back.

Wow, your technique is something else!

Liu Zheng asked in surprise.

"Thank you for your kind words. Our techniques are all taught by the boss himself, and we have a contract that prevents us from sharing them. Once you leave Tangchi, you will automatically forget them. That's why we are the only one of our kind in the entire metropolis."

"That's what Shizuko said."

"It really feels comfortable."

This technique must involve extraordinary power; real-world massage could never achieve this effect.

"By the way, let me ask you something."

He said.

"Please speak, guest."

Do you know which deity is Ōri-no-Ki?

he asked.

“Great Sun God? I’ve never heard of this god, but could you describe his appearance to me?”

"That's what Shizuko said."

"She wore a very luxurious feathered robe, and her eyes had golden tomoe. Her divine role must be related to the sun."

"Ah, I see, you must be referring to Amaterasu Omikami."

Shizuko thought for a moment and then said.

"Amaterasu? Hmm, it must be her."

As a niche culture enthusiast, Liu Zheng naturally knew about the main god in the Takamagahara pantheon.

No wonder Ōhimeki wanted to get the embers from him, because she was the sun goddess in the Takamagahara pantheon.

"Where did you see this deity?"

Jingzi asked.

"Ah, it was in your bathhouse, you saw it through the shrine while you were taking a bath."

Liu Zheng said.

"What?! You actually saw Amaterasu Omikami through the shrine? This is something that has never happened before."

Shizuko's tone was full of shock.

What you usually see through the shrine are either female guests, or some demons and monsters, or at most some miscellaneous gods.

Let alone how Amaterasu could respond to the shrine's summons, even if she did, how could this human possibly survive?

Either gain the favor of Amaterasu Omikami and be taken to Takamagahara by her.

Either they incurred the wrath of Amaterasu Omikami and were burned to ashes by her blazing sun.

"Really? I don't know either. Anyway, after offering sacrifices to the gods in the shrine, she opened the partition. What I saw through the partition was Ōnichi no Kōki bathing in the river."

Liu Zheng said.

"Which deity did you offer sacrifices to?"

Jingzi asked.

"She was a goddess dressed in a feathered robe and holding a round fan. She looked quite wealthy and had a kind smile."

He recalled for a moment and said.

"That's Kikurihime's fate. No wonder, no wonder."

Shizuko said repeatedly.

"What's the wonder?"

"Kikurihime is Amaterasu Omikami's aunt and foster mother. Amaterasu Omikami has great respect for her, no wonder she spared you out of consideration for her."

Jingzi explained.

"Oh, I thought so."

Liu Zheng suddenly realized.

Amaterasu is the lord of Takamagahara. As long as she is a deity in the Takamagahara pantheon, who would dare to joke with her like this?

I wonder if Kikurihime also saw the embers of Ra on his body, which is why she gave him the opportunity to see Amaterasu.

“You are very lucky, guest. Among all the people I know, I have never even heard her kagura, let alone seen the real Amaterasu Omikami.”

"I can't believe it," Shizuko said enviously.

"Hehe, then I'd rather not have that kind of luck."

Liu Zheng pursed his lips.

Are Kagura and the Gospel the same thing?

If so, the next time he hears both the Gospel and Kagura at the same time, will that evil god and Amaterasu fight each other for the chance to perform on stage?

"Your service has ended, guest."

Shizuko suddenly said.

"Is this the end?"

Liu Zheng was stunned for a moment when a system notification suddenly sounded.

Chapter 340 The Legendary Deliveryman Set is Complete

"To achieve a state of 'high energy'."

"Full of energy: Strength +2, Constitution +2, lasts for two hours."

"Oh, not bad."

Liu Zheng nodded slightly.

Although the attribute bonus is not much and the duration is not long, such a purely positive buff is naturally always welcome.

"how much is it?"

he asked.

"No need, sir, I've already paid for your bill."

Shizuko shook her head.

"Oh, that's okay."

Liu Zheng did not insist.

If you show your love for nothing, it is either adultery or theft.

However, since Sumireko clearly had something to discuss with him, then there was nothing more to it.

"Please follow me, guest."

After helping Liu Zheng get dressed, Jingzi led him to a small door.

Open the small door, and you'll find a private room inside.

This time, the style wasn't a mix of different elements; it was a standard Japanese tatami style.

"Masako, please have a seat."

Sumire walked quickly over, took his arm by the tentacle, and led him to a long table.

High-end Japanese cuisine uses individual servings, which can be somewhat helpful in reducing Helicobacter pylori infection.

By this time, the long table was already filled with all kinds of food: lobster, fish, shellfish, sea urchin, pork chops, yakitori, and a very complete selection.

"Judging from your appearance, you're not the type to get bogged down in formalities, so I took the liberty of having them serve all the dishes directly."

Sumire explained.

Normal high-end Japanese cuisine is served little by little, with long intervals and small portions. It's more about enjoying the atmosphere than the food itself.

"You did very well."

Liu Zheng nodded.

"that would be great."

Sumireko said with a smile, then knelt down in front of the table.

"please sit down."

She said.

"Huh? Where do I sit?"

Liu Zheng looked around and asked.

"Of course you'll sit on my lap."

Sumireko deliberately pulled the hem of her yukata open a little, revealing her thighs below.

"Let's forget about it."

He looked at Jinzi's fair and full thighs and said.
