Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

"You'd better not try anything funny, man."

The Queen warned.

"You're crazy, you idiot."

Liu Zheng said without looking up.

"Jennifer, what is this man saying?"

"Your Majesty, I don't understand either."

"I can't believe it," Jennifer said innocently.

"Hmph, it's just vulgar talk anyway. That's all men say."

The Queen pursed her lips.

"Hanbaogu" (憨包谷).

Liu Zheng rolled his eyes.

"Man, I understand what you're saying!"

The Queen glared at her.

"Then come and hit me."

He calmly replied, then continued typing without looking up.

"Your Majesty, calm down!"

The woman in leopard print and the woman in pajamas managed to subdue the queen before she could erupt in anger, one holding her waist and the other pressing her lips against her mouth.

"Colonel, please come pick me up at the east entrance of the Pink Kingdom."

Ignoring their erratic behavior, Liu Zhengcai continued making his phone call.

"What Pink Kingdom?"

"I asked the driver."

"This is the street I'm on right now."

he replied.

"Isn't this street called Red Light Street?"

"I don't know, that's what the gangs here told me."

He said.

"These gang members just like to come up with all sorts of weird nicknames."

The driver hung up the phone.

Which way is the east entrance?

Liu Zheng asked.

"there."

Jennifer quickly gave directions.

"Let's talk as we walk."

He turned and headed towards the east entrance, and Jennifer quickly followed.

Without the added boost of the legendary vest, he's like a straight man wandering around a gay bar naked—completely insecure.

The Queen made a gesture, and the large group of women scattered like birds, while she herself, along with the woman in leopard print and the woman in pajamas, followed behind Liu Zheng.

Are the three of them really that confident?

Liu Zheng asked casually.

"Their confidence comes from Zhizi."

Jennifer hesitated for a moment, but still told him.

After all, the existence of Zhizi is not a secret to those who understand the power of the Pink Kingdom.

"Is Tomoko very strong?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"She's very powerful. The Pink Kingdom exists largely because of her. However, she's a bit crazy and only listens to the Queen."

"Jenif said."

Is "Queen" a person or a title?

"I am the queen, I am the queen."

The Queen finally couldn't help but interject.

"Shouldn't your next sentence be 'Confidence shines'?"

He squinted and said.

"I'm not a firefly, what's the point of me emitting light?"

"Who knows? Anyway, all you people in Metropolis look human, but who knows what genes you have mixed in?"

Liu Zheng complained.

"You say it as if you're not."

The Queen sneered.

“I come from the countryside, and I’m not the same kind of person as you city people.”

He said seriously.

"Humph."

The Queen snorted but did not reply.

"Go on, how did this pink kingdom come about?"

Liu Zheng ignored her and continued asking.

"This place was originally called Red Light Street, and the gang that controlled it was called the Pink Gang. Later, the Queen successfully infiltrated the upper echelons of the gang, then killed the gang leader and became the boss herself."

"Later, the Queen and her sisters completely took control of the street, renamed it the Pink Kingdom, and signed agreements with other gangs to prevent them from harassing the area. The sisters' lives finally got a little better."

"Jenif said."

"That sounds quite inspiring. You just said that the prostitutes here used to be humanoid, so what about the male prostitutes?"

He seized the blind spot.

"this."

Jennifer was unsure whether she should speak or not.

“What is there to be afraid of saying? Men are all untrustworthy, even those male prostitutes. I’ve driven them all away.”

The Queen herself was quite open and honest.

"Well, that's understandable."

Liu Zheng nodded.

Such groups without a political program are inherently disorganized, and these female humanoid creatures are clearly at a disadvantage in terms of weaponry.

In order to survive, they must improve their organization, and single-sex is a method that is not ideal but effective.

"But when you overthrew the Pink Gang, those male prostitutes must have contributed a lot, right?"

He then pointed out another problem.

"How did you know?"

The Queen's gaze sharpened.

"Unite the vulnerable when revolution requires bloodshed, and let them shed blood when it's time to reap the fruits of revolution. It's the same old story."

Liu Zheng chuckled.

"I gave them the money!"

The Queen couldn't help but offer a defense.

"What's the use of money if you can't protect yourself and have no one to protect you? It's just like paying someone else's protection money, and the effectiveness is questionable on the spot."

He scoffed at the Queen's explanation.

"Men, you don't understand anything at all."

The Queen said through gritted teeth.

“I understand everything. You may have your reasons, but that’s just how it is. Since you’ve named this place the Pink Kingdom and proclaimed yourself queen, you should recognize and clarify everything.”

"We have an old saying in our village that we'd like to share with you: 'He who bears the nation's shame is called the master of the state; he who bears the nation's misfortune is called the king of the world.'"

Liu Zheng said slowly.

"what are you saying?"

The Queen was completely bewildered.

"If you don't understand, you can pay for a tutoring session. Of course, I don't have time now, and I probably won't in the future either."

He said jokingly.

"Dream on. Men are annoying enough, but male teachers are twice as annoying."

"The Queen said with disgust."

"You didn't get seduced and lost your virginity by a male teacher when you were in school, and then he sold you to the red-light district, did you?"

"How do you know everything? Who are you?!"

The Queen jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

"Just guessing. That's how it's portrayed in movies."

Liu Zheng shrugged.

In fact, he has seen many similar situations not only in movies, but also in real life.

However, he lacked both the ability and the patience; at most, he would beat up the instigator to make himself feel better.

As for the fate of those girls, that's up to fate.

"Actually, the Queen isn't as bad as you think. Male prostitutes who haven't reached adulthood can still live in the Pink Kingdom, and the Queen will raise any boys who have no one to care for them until they are old enough to serve customers."

Jennifer explained.

"Ah."

Liu Zheng nodded and didn't ask any further questions.

The existence of the novice technique had crossed his bottom line, and he was afraid that if he listened any longer, his irritability would flare up.

The poor can only protect themselves; all he can do is save one person or kill one. This kind of systemic problem is beyond the ability of a small player like him to solve.

However, after listening, Liu Zheng's impression of the Queen improved slightly.

This woman is just a little extreme, not to the point of being obsessed, which is already quite rare in a metropolis.

If she tries anything funny later, Liu Zheng might consider giving her a lighter beating.

"So what are you going to do next? Are you going to stay here, or should I arrange a place for you?"

He asked Jennifer.

Where do you intend to send me?

Jennifer asked, a mixture of anticipation and trepidation.

"If you're in the city, I can arrange for you to work at a clinic or a bathhouse. The doctor at the clinic and the supervisor at the bathhouse are both good friends of mine. As long as you work hard, they definitely won't make things difficult for you."

“If you’re outside the city, I can arrange for you to work at a large bathhouse on Bath Street. I saved the life of the owner there, so she’ll give me face in return.”

Liu Zheng said.

"Can't I stay by your side? Although I'm not a virgin, my vagina is still tight."
