Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

he shouted.

"It's a pity, it was so close."

Liu Zheng's voice came from beneath Shi Tiantian's enormous body.

Then, he slowly crawled out of Shi Tiantian's body and pulled out the butcher knife that had been used to support her body.

"Won't I kill the guest?"

Liu Zheng looked at Shi Tiantian, who was lying on the ground, with some worry.

If a customer dies on his very first day on the job, the Hundred Ghosts Bathhouse should fire him immediately.

"You're way too arrogant, kid. How could you possibly kill it so easily?"

Thirteen rolled her eyes.

Shi Tiantian just likes letters, not sharks.

If Liu Zheng really could cause it fatal damage, he would have called out a safety word long ago.

Because during the process of exchanging letters, it is difficult for the active party or a third party to distinguish whether the passive party is truly in pain or truly enjoying it, so a keyword is usually agreed upon as a safety precaution.

When the passive party feels they can't take it anymore, they will shout out this keyword, and the active party will then call for a stop.

As a veteran of the alphabet, Shi Tiantian naturally has her own safe words.

And because Thirteen Orphans was always present, this safe word was given to him.

Of course, from the very first time it came to Bai Gui Xing to make a purchase, it never had the chance to utter the word "safe."

Since Shi Tiantian didn't shout before she fainted, then

"It must have just been enjoying itself to the point of fainting."

Thirteen Orphans said with a hint of helplessness.

"Since the minister says so, then I'm relieved."

Liu Zheng looked at the system notification that flashed by and said.

"Trigger the 'Blood Rune' effect."

"Blood Rune: When a critical blow is dealt to the target's internal organs, a small amount of health can be restored."

This equipment, looted from the Calculus Academy, is being triggered for the first time.

Aside from the metallic taste of blood in his mouth, he didn't feel anything else; perhaps his life force was just too weak.

"So what do we do now? Should we let Mr. Shi rest for a while?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"Are you an idiot? If you leave it lying here, it'll really die in a minute."

Thirteen Yao glared at him, then went to the room phone.

"Hello, is this the medical team?"

He made a phone call.

"It's me, Thirteen Orphans. Send two people over immediately, a guest is injured."

"It's someone from the Shi Jing family. Yes, the person is already unconscious."

"Don't worry, it's not a fight. Hurry up, or I'll take all your caregivers away."

Thirteen said impatiently, then hung up the phone.

"Alright, I'll wait here for the medical team. Go find somewhere to stay."

He waved to Liu Zheng.

"I'm willing to wait with you, Minister."

Liu Zhengbiao said loyally.

"But I don't want to."

Thirteen Orphans resolutely refused.

He was also a little unsure about Shi Tiantian's thoughts. What if she woke up and saw this kid and wanted him again?

While Shi Tiantian herself might be having a blast, he'll be bearing the wrath of Shi Jing's entire family.

"Since you've put it that way, Minister, I'll find somewhere to stay. But where should I go?"

Liu Zheng shrugged and asked.

"That's a problem."

If we send him back to Old Man Qing's place now, he definitely won't be able to find his way back.

But even when asked to go back to his own room, Thirteen Yao was not willing.

He has a lot of things in his room that he doesn't want anyone to see. If this kid finds them, his image as a leader will be completely ruined.

"Alright, take this and go stay with Hachijo for a while. He's bored by himself, and I don't have any work for you to do for the time being."

Thirteen took out a small black object from his pocket and handed it to Liu Zheng.

He took it and mishandled it a couple of times, and several black marks immediately appeared on his fingers.

Judging from both its color and material, this thing should be a lump of coal.

Soon, the item descriptions that popped up confirmed this.

Name: A Piece of Coal Slag

Type: Miscellaneous Items

Quality: Average

Effect: None

"Note: A piece of ordinary coal slag is just like your life."

"Can it be taken out of the instance: No"

"hehe."

Liu was mentally giving the middle finger.

This nickname is so malicious. If his life weren't still so thrilling and exciting, he would have almost lost his temper.

"Where should I go to find this Hachijo-senpai?"

he asked.

"Go out and keep walking to your left until you find the elevator. Then press the button for basement level. After you get out of the elevator, just keep walking in the direction of the fire."

"By the way, once you're outside, no matter who tries to talk to you or what they say, just reply that you're working and don't want to be disturbed, and then just go about your own business."

Thirteen said.

"Ok."

Liu Zheng gripped the coal ash and walked out of the shack without the slightest hesitation.

Following Thirteen's instructions, he walked to the left side of the corridor.

The sounds that emanated from the shacks along the way were either suggestive or chilling, while the strangely shaped shadows also sparked endless imagination.

Unbeknownst to him, a terrifying hand quietly gripped Liu Zheng's heart, making his chest feel as if Shi Tiantian was pressing down on it.

"Rational decline exemption successful."

The system prompt sounded again.

"If someone can be so rational about this, it seems the working environment at the Hundred Ghosts Bathhouse isn't much better than that of the Bloody Restaurant."

He rubbed his chest and complained.

Having learned his lesson, Liu Zheng stopped looking at the side buildings and instead walked forward with his head down.

Although the decline in rationality had no effect on him, who knew if they might have other methods, just like the beings in the barrier room used their voices to lure him in when he first entered.

After actively shrinking my senses, those indescribable sounds and sights became much less frequent.

However, Liu Zheng's decision not to provoke those barrier houses doesn't mean that the beings inside them don't want to provoke him.

"Shh!"

The paper door of a shack was pulled open a crack.

A petite female servant peeked out from inside and waved to him.

Although she has a youthful face and is extremely busty, she is the kind of woman who would be commonplace in a doujinshi but would have suitors lining up everywhere in real life.

However, recalling Thirteen's instructions, Liu Zheng only glanced at it casually and then ignored it.

"Which department are you from? Why are you loitering in the hallway?"

"I asked the waitress."

"I am working, please do not disturb me."

As he spoke, he slightly veered off course.

"What kind of job do you have? You didn't even tell me which department you're in. Are you actually a ticket evader or a spy filmed by another bathhouse?"

The waitress looked at him with suspicion.

"I am working, please do not disturb me."

Liu Zheng spoke again.

"Hmph, I can tell you're a spy sent by another bathhouse. Don't run, I'll call security right away."

The waitress shouted loudly.

"If I were really a spy, why would I just stand by and wait for the security department to come?"

He rolled his eyes at his brother.

However, he only complained in his mind and didn't say it out loud.

"Oh, I was just kidding. How about we play Truth or Dare?"

"If you answer one truthful question, I'll do a dare. You can explore many places that haven't been unlocked yet for me, my buddy!"

The waitress bowed forward, revealing the deep valleys of her life.

"I am working, please do not disturb me."

But no matter how she tempted him, Liu Zheng remained unmoved.

"You bastard, why are you so stubborn? Is it so hard to ask you to take care of your health?"

The waitress was so angry that she started cursing.

The only response she received was two perfectly standard middle fingers.

"idiot!"

The waitress suddenly flew up, like a kite.

The kite string was none other than a dark blue intestine.

When the maid came to Liu Zheng's front and back, she immediately opened her mouth.

The intestines that had pierced her body shot out of her mouth again, deftly looping in the air before lodging around Liu Zheng's neck.

Why does this scene look so familiar?

He muttered to himself, but his hands didn't slow down at all; he gripped the butcher's knife and chopped down on the spot.

“Foolish human, you are about to become my toy.”

The waitress sneered.

"Really? I don't think so."

Liu Zheng swung his knife fiercely, striking the incoming intestines directly.

"Crench!"

The blade struck the intestine, producing a sound like rubbing glass.
