The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human? Chapter 128: Lao Deng’s Gold Coin is Hard to Burst

"Boss, I’m back."

Upon returning to the lounge, Liu Zheng shouted.

"What’s with the yelling? There’s only two of us, why are you yelling?"

Niu Ma gave him a pair of white eyes.

"I was just worried you’d gotten older and hard of hearing."

He said with a grin.

"Nonsense, do you think I’m Ottawa or what?"

"Seeing you smile like you swallowed a Moon Beast cub, did you get the box?"

Niu Ma asked.

"Got it, but at a great loss."

Liu Zheng briefly explained the situation.

"Hey, you didn’t die or lose money, how is that a big loss?"

Niu Ma said unconcernedly.

"What surprises , though, is that you didn’t use the morial dal,"

It said, looking at Liu Zheng’s chest.

Niu Ma had already prepared to use that as an excuse to extract a hefty sum from him.

Unexpectedly, the kid was so lucky.

"That’s also thanks to the boss’s blessing. Without the Centaur’s help, I would have struggled to escape."

Liu Zheng half-flattered.

"Of course, you may be more seductive than a Succubus, but you’ve been here less ti. I’ve been at the restaurant for so many years, you can’t compare to my connections,"

Niu Ma said proudly.

"That’s true, that’s true."

"However, this might blow our cover,"

Niu Ma frowned again.

"You think?"

Could Britain be monitoring the box?

"That guy from Britain is very cunning. Plus, even without evidence, just suspecting the Centaur will make its life difficult,"

Niu Ma sighed.

"What do we do now?"

"Let it be. We’ll take it one step at a ti. Acting now would only startle the snake,"

Niu Ma said.

Even if it now applied to transfer the Centaur to the delivery departnt, Britain would definitely kill the Centaur before the transfer was complete.

Even at its own expense, Britain would spare no effort.

It was just that vengeful.

"Okay, then let know if there’s any update,"

Liu Zheng nodded.

The Centaur had saved his life, and he still owed him one.

"Inform you? Who do you think you are? Are you going to make Britain back down, or could you snatch soone from custor service?"

Niu Ma said disdainfully.

How did this guy who just escaped death in custor service get so audacious?

"The sewer eggs must have been returned by now, right? The boss ntioned a reward, maybe ask her to protect the Centaur?"

Liu Zheng suggested.

"A reward from the Bloody Restaurant boss, you’d part with that?"

Niu Ma glanced at him sideways.

A reward from the Bloody Restaurant boss was priceless to many.

"It’s not about parting with it, it’s about whether it’s worth it,"

For him, using a reward to repay a life-saving favor seed fair.

"Not your ti to show off yet. Hand over the morial dal,"

Niu Ma demanded.

"Don’t rush , let play with it for a few days."

"Play my ass, you just want to keep it for yourself. Hurry up, don’t make hit you,"

After exchanging a few more insults, Liu Zheng finally returned the morial dal to Niu Ma.

It swiftly swallowed it.

This item was one of its most treasured possessions. If it weren’t for counting on Liu Zheng to make money, it wouldn’t have lent it to him.

"Hurry, hurry up and call your lover, have her pull so strings,"

Niu Ma urged.

"Napoleon agreed to do the first-class dinner?"

"When have I, Niu Ma, ever failed?"

Although its tone was casual, its evasive eyes suggested the task was not easy.

"Alright then."

Although Liu Zheng was doubtful about how Niu Ma convinced Napoleon, it seed the matter was settled.

So, he made a call to the novelist.

"Senior, are you ready?"

The novelist asked bluntly.

"I’m ready. The box is nad Solar System, just ntion the box na and that’s it,"

Liu Zheng said.

"Okay, I’ll make arrangents right away. Please be patient, and wait for my news,"

"No worries, take your ti. By the way, is this enough? It won’t cause you any trouble, will it?"

He asked.

To be honest, the deal he had struck with the novelist so far was the most unequal.

Though Liu Zheng always suspected that the woman wanted to devour him, she hadn’t yet done so.

So, the relationship still needed to be maintained well.

"Don’t worry, senior. No problem,"

The novelist reassured him.

After hanging up the phone, Liu Zheng noticed Niu Ma looking at him with a strange expression again.

"What’s up now, boss?"

"She must be your official girl, right?"

Niu Ma said.

"Of course not. No, wait, I don’t have a harem, okay?"

He retorted.

"Ha, ha. This novelist, the Fisherman’s daughter, the girlfriend of the Fisherman’s daughter, and that Vampire receptionist,"

"Just the ones I know about, and who knows how many more there are."

"You’ve delivered fewer takeouts than the girls you’ve wooed."

Niu Ma teased.

"Nonsense. Boss, familiar or not, be careful or I’ll sue you for slander."

"Whether it’s slander, you know it yourself. Hmm, let’s get the kitchen staff to start betting on who will be the first to sleep with you,"

Niu Ma mused.

"Hey, betting on your own brother, isn’t that going a bit too far?"

Liu Zheng protested.

"Going too far? Be thankful I don’t make you work in the black market as a gigolo,"

Niu Ma acted on its words and headed for the kitchen as it pushed open the door of the lounge.

The novelist wouldn’t have news for a while anyway.

Watching the door shut automatically, he helplessly shook his head.

What could he do with such an eccentric boss?

After thinking it over, Liu Zheng called the Vampire Sister.

"Hello, who is it?"

"It’s , Liu Zheng,"

He replied.

"Oh, what’s up? I’m busy right now."

Vampire Sister said.

Indeed, there was a lot of noisy chatter on her end, seemingly a large wave of custors had arrived simultaneously.

"It’s nothing important."

"If it’s nothing, then I’ll hang up for now. I’ll call you back later."

Vampire Sister said.

"I ran into your Blood Father."

Liu Zheng said.

"Yeah, yeah, so I’ll just... what?!"

Vampire Sister exclaid in shock.

"He’s dead."

"What?!"

Vampire Sister shocked*2.

"Before he died, he told the code to a safe and asked to pass it on to you."

Liu Zheng had finished casting his spell.

"Ah! Ah! Ah!!!"

Vampire Sister shocked*3.

He silently moved the phone a little further away.

"Hold on, I’ll call you back right away."

"You, what are you planning on doing, just tell quickly!"

Vampire Sister hung up.

"Tsk~"

Liu Zheng raised his eyebrows.

It seed that Vampire Sister’s Blood Father would probably explode into a bunch of Gold Coins.

Two minutes later, Vampire Sister called again.

"Quick, quick, give the details."

She said, unable to wait any longer.

It sounded like her voice was echoing, probably because she was hiding in a bathroom or sowhere similar.

"I shouldn’t tell you the specifics."

Liu Zheng said.

Although neither the dead nor the killer were from the restaurant, it all happened in a private room.

Who knows if talking about it would break Niu Ma’s rules.

Besides, telling Vampire Sister the truth might not be a good idea anyway.

With her power and status, it was basically impossible for her to seek revenge on the boy in the pajamas.

If she didn’t plan on avenging her Blood Father, then there was even less need to ntion it.

"I’ll give you the safe code, write it down. Our debts to each other will be settled."

Liu Zheng said.

After all, he had also risked his life, so charging a little interdiation fee wasn’t too excessive.

"Wait, wait, don’t say it over the phone."

Vampire Sister quickly stopped him.

"Then when I deliver takeout, should I just swing by the board ga cafe to find you?"

Although he didn’t know what she was worried about, Liu Zheng went with the flow.

"Fine. Never mind, I’ll order takeout myself."

Vampire Sister thought it over and then said.

"You’re really going all out? Can you afford it?"

"Even if I can’t afford it, I have to. He didn’t just have as his offspring."

Vampire Sister clenched her teeth and said.

"What if you get there and find the safe has already been opened by soone else? Wouldn’t your takeout be wasted?"

Liu Zheng pointed out the issue.

"Then just consider unlucky,"

Vampire Sister said grumpily.

Does this guy even know how to speak?

Didn’t he used to flirt pretty smoothly before?

"Alright, you decide for yourself."

He said.

After hanging up, and about half an hour later, the order ca.

Ghost Hand staggered in, and just as shakily, he set down the takeout order.

It looked like he hadn’t drunk little.

Liu Zheng looked around, didn’t have anything to sober him up, and gave up on the idea.

Given Ghost Hand’s strength, even if he blacked out, no one could pick up his corpse.

Picking up the takeout order, sure enough, it was Vampire Sister’s order.

"al: One serving of mashed potatoes"

"Address: ’Red Witch’ Board Ga Cafe"

"Order placed by: Emile"

"Ti Limit: One hour"

Hmm...

What to say, just the na of the al itself exudes an air of poverty.

At the very least, order so at.

Liu Zheng shook his head, picked up the takeout box, and left the break room.

Not being in a hurry and out of curiosity, he took out the al from the box.

A small plastic bowl filled with mashed potatoes, topped with a plastic spoon.

Besides that, nothing else.

And the item description proved it was as plain inside as outside.

"Na: Mashed Potatoes"

"Type: Item"

"Quality: Common"

"Effect: Restores energy."

"Note: A plain dish of mashed potatoes, but since it’s labeled with Bloody Restaurant, those who buy it still have to pay a heavy price."

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

Boy, Liu Zheng had delivered many takeouts, but this was the first ti he saw a Common quality al.

Luckily such takeouts should also be rare; otherwise, the value of the Legendary Takeout Box would have decreased.

After putting the mashed potatoes into the takeout box, he exited the restaurant through the delivery passage.

This ti there wasn’t anything to trade, so he didn’t seek out the French Plane Tree; instead, he headed straight for the "Red Witch" Board Ga Cafe.

Reaching the entrance of the cafe, Liu Zheng imdiately lowered his head and watched his hoof tips as he walked.

Just to avoid seeing the witch statue and getting struck by lightning for thinking things he shouldn’t.

He thought he was just there to deliver and that there was no need for him to get involved.

He thought so, but unfortunately, they intended to encroach on his well from their river.

Liu Zheng kept his head down as he walked into the board ga cafe, then suddenly "bam," he hit an air wall.

"Hmm?"

He touched his forehead, looking puzzled, as nothing like this had happened during his last visit.

And he hadn’t done anything bad the last ti, so why was he not allowed in?

Could it be...

Liu Zheng looked up, and the witch statue’s eyeballs were indeed turning towards him.

"Sigh."

He sighed deeply.

Delivery to a residential area had security, an office building had security, even delivering to a board ga cafe had security.

Seems he was just fated to take a much longer detour.

"Witch Madam, may I ask if you have any instructions?"

Liu Zheng resignedly asked.
