Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

"Who are you kidding? You're clearly a deliveryman for the Bloody Restaurant."

"The jackal security guard said disdainfully."

"That's just one of my identities. I'm also the family member of an outstanding employee of the City Hall and a reserve member of the Writers' Association."

He pointed to the brooch on his chest and said.

"Ok?"

The gnoll security guard glanced at the brooch, and the hostility and greed in his eyes immediately lessened by half.

"What about the others?"

It asked, unwilling to give up.

“They are my friends, but Mr. Fool invited them as well. If you don’t believe me, you can make a phone call to verify.”

Liu Zheng replied.

"Then you wait."

The jackal security guard made a hand gesture, and the other guards immediately formed a tactical formation around the tank.

Not far away, heavy firepower such as rocket launchers and grenade launchers were all aimed at them, ready to fire at any moment.

"Is this the kind of scene you usually encounter when delivering food?"

The tentacle monster twisted its body uncomfortably.

Although the residents of the metropolis are well-traveled and worldly, such a grand scene was still too exciting for a shut-in.

"Not all of them. In some places, the security guards are quite friendly."

Liu Zheng shrugged.

Actually, he thought the security guards at the Imperial View Villa were pretty good; at least they didn't come up to him asking for things or trying to provoke him by being unreasonable.

"Okay, I understand. Thank you for your cooperation."

The gnoll security guard hung up the phone quickly.

"Alert lifted!"

It made a gesture and shouted loudly.

The security guards, who had been on high alert, immediately dispersed and returned to their original positions.

"Okay, you can go."

The jackal security guard waved his hand and said.

"Thank you."

Liu Zheng thanked him and then had the driver start the tank.

The tracks rolled over the bridge surface, making a metallic clanging sound, creating an inexplicable heavy and oppressive atmosphere.

"They let us through so easily, which means it wasn't a trap, right?"

Seemingly to ease the tension, the tentacle monster took the initiative to speak.

"No, it's more likely to be a trap."

Liu Zheng, however, was not as optimistic.

"Ah? Why?"

The tentacle monster asked, puzzled.

"The Imperial View Villa is Peacock's property, so the security guards must be her people. Even if they don't know that she has a grudge against me, they must know that she doesn't get along with the Bloody Restaurant."

"They let us in so easily; it's possible that the peacocks gave them instructions to lure us into a trap."

He explained.

"Huh? Then we've been tricked?"

The tentacle monster exclaimed in surprise.

"It's just speculation. Besides, we're already in here, there's no turning back. Let's forge ahead."

"Colonel, speed up."

Liu Zheng said in a deep voice.

"Okay~"

The driver excitedly stepped on the gas.

The hounds transformed into streaks of black light, flowing across the bridge, causing the sturdy iron bridge to tremble slightly under the weight of the tanks.

The bridge, about two kilometers long, was neither too long nor too short, and the tank quickly reached the other side.

The situation was much less elaborate on this side of the bridge, with only two guard booths and six guards.

"Stop the car and register."

An elderly security guard stopped them.

"okay."

Liu Zheng got out of the car and took the registration book to fill it out.

The registration information is similar to that in real life, except for the addition of a "race" section.

"Sir, what do you think I should fill in?"

He consulted the elderly security guard next to him.

Just fill in whatever you are.

The old security guard raised his eyelids and said.

"The problem is, I don't even know what I am. Sir, you're so knowledgeable, could you teach me?"

Liu Zheng handed over the registration book with a grin, and casually slipped a stack of hundred-yuan bills into it.

Chapter 490 Tentacles that Vibrate at High Speed ​​and Are Electrified

"Someone like you, who is mixed-race after birth, is human if more than half of you are human."

The old security guard wrote "human" in the race column.

"Others also need to register."

He tapped the table and said.

"Okay. You can come down and register now."

Liu Zheng called down the tentacle monster and the salmon.

Do drivers need to register?

he asked.

"That depends on whether you drive in or not."

The old security guard said.

"Should I drive in or not?"

Liu Zheng asked in an inquiring tone.

"Young man, since you're so polite, I'll give you a piece of advice."

The old security guard said with a half-smile.

"Please say. Oh, wait, I'm sorry, I misspelled a word here. Please rewrite it."

He crossed out the character for "person" and rewrote it, and also slipped a stack of banknotes into the register.

"My advice is, don't waste your time. There's no way we can tell you anything."

The old security guard skillfully put the banknotes into his pocket, then said leisurely.

"."

Liu Zheng felt a surge of anger, but he suppressed it with his strong will.

Now is not the time for "irritability" to flare up.

But after calming down, he pondered the old security guard's words and seemed to have discovered something.

Judging from the old security guard's words, they had clearly received orders not to leak information to him, but it was unclear whether this was directed at him personally or all the employees of the Bloody Restaurant.

But if the old security guard is completely malicious, then there's no need to talk to him so much; just remain silent.

Therefore, there must be useful information in this sentence.

When the pond owner gave Liu Zheng the turtle shell, he didn't consider the driver factor. So, in his calculations, they could escape from the Imperial View Villa with the turtle shell.

The pond owner was once a spokesperson for the sewers. Even if he can't compare to managers like Peacock and Si Xue, his estimation of their abilities shouldn't be too far off.

So even if they can't escape to land, they should still be able to reach the bridge.

Liu Zheng looked into the interior of the Imperial View Villa, only to find that he could not see anything beyond the ten meters in front of him.

"Then I won't drive in."

He made his decision after a moment's thought.

"Then park the car over there. Visitors are free for the first hour, and after that, it will cost 1000 per hour. Any fraction of an hour will be charged as a full hour."

The old security guard pointed to an open space to the right of the gate.

Fortunately, it's not too far away.

"Ok."

Liu Zheng returned to the tank.

"How to say?"

"I asked the driver."

"Park the car as close to the door as possible, and keep the engine running, ready to fire at any time."

he replied.

"Alright, you're the commander now."

The driver shrugged.

"Don't worry, you'll be the one to fire the first shot."

Liu Zheng laughed.

"Haha, you're so lovable."

The driver laughed and patted him on the shoulder.

"Let's go."

After exiting the tank, Liu Zheng led the man and the cat through the gate of the Imperial View Villa.

"Good heavens, where did this come from?"

As soon as he entered, he let out a sigh.

The community is neither a row of townhouses nor a series of detached garden villas, but a vibrant field.

Green grass, colorful flowers, various kinds of trees, and all sorts of small animals roam the fields.

"Have I wandered into a luxury residential area or some kind of scenic spot?"

Liu Zheng remained silent.

"It's normal for rich people to have different aesthetic tastes than us."

The tentacle monster, however, remained quite calm.

“I have a rich relative who likes to live in a fish tank.”

Is it because of racial habits?

he asked curiously.
