Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

"Wow, that's pretty efficient. Okay, you wait for me at the usual spot."

Liu Zheng said.

"Okay, deliveryman."

He hung up the phone and fell into thought.

The question to consider is simple: how exactly should the lottery shop owner be killed?

Chapter 555 The auction has been brought forward?

As a former member of the special team, even without the official equipment, his strength should not be underestimated.

The bombs were mainly used to blow up the shop; if Liu Zheng wanted to kill or capture the lottery shop manager, he would still have to rely on his own strength.

But in his last match against Garcia, he had already used up all his trump cards.

He didn't think he could beat the former special team members with true damage and other items alone.

"Wow, amazing!"

Liu Zheng's eyes darted around, and he called out in a drawn-out voice.

"No money, no things, no time."

The bull and horse directly blocked him with a triple attack.

"Don't be like that. What kind of relationship do we have? If others don't have it, why shouldn't I?"

He said it shamelessly.

"Everyone else has it, but you can't have it either."

The ox and horse glared at him.

"You do the math yourself. In just these few days, how much stuff have you taken from me? I haven't even returned the things I borrowed yet, and you still want to take more from me? No way!"

It said this with absolute certainty.

"Then I'll buy it, okay?"

"Don't think I don't know what you want to do with those things. You can't buy items of that quality with money. I'd rather keep them to save my own life than give them to you to kill someone."

The ox and horse rolled their eyes.

Do you really think it's like a plane tree that stays put? It's out in the wind and rain every day, and sometimes it doesn't even use up as much stuff as it gets. Is it easy to accumulate some wealth?

"I'll exchange some nice things for you at the auction, since you don't deliver food much anymore anyway."

Liu Zheng persevered.

"Can't you attend the auction first and then go?"

"That's because we were afraid Napoleon wouldn't be able to wait."

He spread his tentacles.

"It's just talk, what's the rush? If it were really in a hurry, it would have asked me to help already, why would it be your turn?"

The ox and horse grunted.

"I think it's not that they're not in a hurry, but that they're worried the big boss will ask for too much."

Liu Zheng squinted and said.

"Why is the price too high? I am the head of the delivery department and a three-time outstanding employee. Isn't it reasonable for me to ask for hundreds of millions? If you think the price is too high, reflect on yourself first. Have you been cooking well all these years? Have you been creating more innovative dishes to make extra money?"

The ox and horse spoke with conviction.

Innovation requires trial and error, which means purchasing many ingredients that weren't originally on the purchasing list, and there's a lot of money to be made in that process.

"Yes, yes, yes, yes."

He gave a perfunctory answer.

Even if cattle and horses aren't expensive, white-feathered chickens probably wouldn't go looking for cattle or horses.

Asking Liu Zheng to do things is like a superior assigning tasks to a subordinate.

If you ask oxen and horses to do it, then it becomes like a white-feathered chicken begging oxen and horses for help.

Given their attitude, they'll definitely bring this up when they argue in the future.

"If you're so powerful, why do I have to step in to kill an enemy? Huh?"

With the pride of a white-feathered pheasant, it simply cannot tolerate such words.

"Find your own way, don't expect me to clean up your messes every time something happens. You have your own little brother now, it's time to wean yourself off him."

The oxen and horses shook their hooves and said.

"You're not a dairy cow, why should I wean you?"

Liu Zheng rolled his eyes.

Of course, he said this in his heart.

However, what Niu Ma said is also right. Anyway, Bai Yu Ji said he would have three days, which is just right for timing.

Moreover, if the path of cattle and horses doesn't work, you can try other people's paths.

Liu Zheng doesn't have much else, but he knows a lot of people.

In fact, with his current connections, he could easily gather enough people to take over the lottery shop in one fell swoop.

However, the other party's identity as a former member of the special task force was too sensitive. He himself didn't care, but the others still had to live in the metropolis.

Even someone as powerful as Killer Sauce could only hide in the sewers after offending the city hall. He couldn't possibly send everyone to the sewers, could he?

"Sigh, a kind heart doesn't make a good general; I'm still too kind-hearted."

Liu Zheng sighed deeply.

"yue!"

The ox and horse looked at his hypocritical face and showed disgust.

After roasting a few more ears of corn, Wang Manni called.

"Delivery driver, I've arrived."

"Okay, wait there for a bit. I'll check if there are any orders; if not, I'll find someone to order one."

Liu Zheng said.

"Okay. By the way, Mr. Delegus asked me to tell you that the auction has been moved up and will start at eight o'clock tonight."

Wang Manni said.

"Huh? Why?"

he asked.

"It is said to be due to the strong request of a certain important person."

Wang Manni replied.

"Okay, I see."

After hanging up the phone, Liu Zheng's expression was strange.

Could this "some big shot" be an anonymous peacock who's furious and wants to get back at the collectors?

Should we tell Si Xue this news?

He was lost in thought.

"Hey boss, could you call the boss again for me?"

Liu Zheng made a decision quickly.

"I won't fight. If you're looking to die, don't drag me into it."

The ox and horse resolutely refused.

Are you crazy? Even if you really are the boss's mistress, you can't keep calling and harassing her like this. Do you really think that woman is love-struck?

And to use it as a messenger is just asking for trouble.

"Don't worry, I guarantee the boss won't be angry; he'll even be delighted."

Liu Zheng patted his chest and said.

"Really?"

Niu Ma was somewhat suspicious.

“Seriously. If I cause you to get punished, I'll compensate you with a million, plus a legendary deliveryman set.”

"I'm about to run away, what use is your shabby outfit to me?"

Despite grumbling, Niu Ma still took out his phone.

It took a deep breath, then prostrated itself on the ground, adopting a fearful expression, before finally calling Si Xue.

"Boss, Liu Zheng has something to report to you again."

The call connected, and it spoke in a trembling voice.

As soon as he finished speaking, his ears were twisted to a ninety-degree angle.

The oxen and horses twitched in pain, but dared not utter a sound.

"Give him the phone."

Si Xue's voice came through the phone.

"Okay okay."

Niu Ma quickly handed the phone to Liu Zheng.

"You'll have to have a good reason, otherwise I'll see it as you taking advantage of my favor."

Si Xue's icy voice sent chills down his spine.

"The barter auction, originally scheduled for 8 p.m. tomorrow, has been moved up to today. De Lego said it was due to a strong request from a certain important person. I highly suspect that Peacock is behind this, so I'm reporting to you immediately."

Liu Zheng said succinctly.

"Oh?"

Si Xue raised her voice slightly.

"Yeah, that's the kind of thing that woman would do. Whatever she wants to film today, you can't let her get away with it, understand?"

She gave the order.

"Boss, even if I had the courage, I don't have the ability."

Liu Zheng smiled wryly.

How can a deliveryman who has only been in the business for a few days compare his financial resources to those of a major real estate developer like Peacock?

"Then you have to ruin her at least once, or I'll ruin you too."

Si Xue said unreasonably.

"Alright, I will do my best."

Liu Zheng had no choice but to say.

He now deeply regrets why he revealed this matter.

I thought I could get some extraordinary items from Si Xue for free, but I didn't expect to get myself involved instead.

If the price is clearly marked, it's fine; as long as he reacts quickly enough, he can minimize his losses.

But now it's an auction, and Liu Zheng might have to stake all his assets to complete the task.

But it seems like it's not good to keep it to myself either. If Si Xue finds out later, she'll definitely be able to guess that he knew but didn't report it, and the consequences might be even more serious than failing the mission.

"Alas, this is what it's like to have your life and death in the hands of others. No matter what you say, it's wrong; no matter what you do, it's wrong."

Liu Zheng suddenly felt a bit bored.

Are you cursing me in your heart?
