The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human? Chapter 1405 - 851: No Good Deed Goes Unpunished

"Really?"

Si Xue looked skeptical.

"Absolutely certain and definite."

Liu Zheng nodded.

Whether it was true before or not, it’s true now anyway.

"Hmm. Is the Supre Slly Soup really that bad?"

Si Xue asked curiously.

"It’s really awful. Compared to slling the Supre Slly Soup again, I’d rather eat a buffet in the sewer."

He said with a grimace.

"Hmm... Get going. Hurry up and bring back the Three Five Evil Slayer Hero Sword, or don’t bother with your head."

Si Xue issued an order to leave.

"Okay~"

Liu Zheng rolled away swiftly.

"Is this woman worried that she couldn’t resist trying the Supre Slly Soup, so she told to leave?"

In the elevator, he couldn’t help but think.

Recalling Si Xue’s expression just now, he felt his guess might be right.

"Indeed, these powerful individuals’ curiosity is no less than that of ordinary people."

Liu Zheng thought with amusent.

"The order you were waiting for is here, go deliver it."

Back in the lounge, Niu Ma said without looking up.

Liu Zheng glanced down and found the delivery order near the small stool.

"When did it arrive?"

He asked.

"Just a few minutes ago."

Niu Ma replied.

"Oh, that’s fine."

Liu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief.

If it had already been delivered twenty or thirty minutes ago, he would have to switch to life-or-death fast delivery mode.

He picked up the delivery order and looked at the contents.

"Item: Salted Branch Beans"

"Address: Ping’an City Gambling House"

"Custor: Shi Yidao"

"Ti limit: one hour"

"Salted Branch Beans..."

Luckily, it wasn’t ordered by soone he knows, otherwise the White Feather Chicken would go ballistic again.

But judging by the order info, this custor should be of Fusang descent and might also be part of a gang.

Thinking of this, Liu Zheng walked out while dialing Guo Koutangzi.

"What’s up?"

Guo Koutangzi’s tone was full of disdain.

"Don’t be so resistant, I’m not asking you to make soup this ti."

He said with a cheeky smile.

"Then can you guarantee you won’t ask to make soup in the future?"

Guo Koutangzi asked.

"..."

This Liu Zheng really couldn’t guarantee that.

"Hmph, just get to the point."

Guo Koutangzi said impatiently.

"Alright. Do you know soone nad Shi Yidao?"

He asked.

"Are you about to deliver food to him?"

Guo Koutangzi’s tone shifted slightly.

"I’m about to go find him."

Liu Zheng admitted indirectly.

"Then you’re gonna be careful. His swordsmanship is exceptional."

Guo Koutangzi said.

"Any specific examples?"

He asked.

"He once sliced through a building with a single stroke."

Guo Koutangzi said.

"In the city or outside?"

"In the city, and less than five kiloters from the city center."

Guo Koutangzi replied.

"That’s indeed remarkable."

The closer to the city center, the more restricted you are; magic that could summon a teor shower might only summon a tiny fla.

Shi Yidao can slice through a building less than five kiloters from the city center, at least his power is at the level of a fully unleashed Doctor Nile.

"What sort of person is he?"

Liu Zheng asked while opening the al box.

The box contained a ceramic bowl, filled with so edama beans still in their pods (known as "毛豆" in Japanese).

The beans themselves weren’t much to talk about, but the bowl was intriguing, with oil droplet patterns in gold, silver, and dark blue adorning the bowl wall, sparkling like stars in the faint light.

"Na: Salted Branch Beans (one-ti use)"

"Type: Tool"

"Quality: Ordinary"

"Effect: Restores a slight amount of stamina."

"Note: Can this really be called a snack to go with drinks? At least make it ’花毛一体’ (a mix of peanuts and edama)."

"Can be taken out of the instance: Yes"

"Flower and Edama combination is just average, and rated as inferior to ’肥头大耳’ (pig’s head and ears combo)."

Liu Zheng comnted.

But even tiny ants are still at; at least it’s an ordinary quality item, so it could still get him so draw chances at the Fun Blind Box House.

"Too greasy. A proper snack to go with drinks should be paired with sesa tofu to enjoy the true flavors of both the food and the drink."

Guo Koutangzi argued.

"Right, right, big sis, you’re absolutely right. Let’s talk about Shi Yidao again."

Liu Zheng said dismissively.

"Hmph. Shi Yidao used to be a hero, frequently helping people fight injustice, held in high regard in the underworld. But later his only son was killed, which changed his personality completely, and he stopped caring about underworld affairs, just drank and gambled daily, and didn’t settle his debts when broke."

"Even though he owes small amounts each ti, considering his strength, so people he’d helped before would pay so of it back for him, so people wouldn’t hold it against him much."

Guo Koutangzi explained.

"What about the murderer? Was he found?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"No. He offended too many people; each could be the culprit."

Guo Koutangzi shook his head.

"Hmm..."

Seems like a good starting point.

"By the way, he’s blind."

Guo Koutangzi added.

"Oh?"

A highly skilled blind swordsman, there’s a certain appeal to it.

Speaking of which, Samurai Yifa also ended up with his family killed because of his righteous acts; clearly in tropolis, being good doesn’t pay off.

"But for soone like him, having eyes or not makes little difference, so it’s best not to think of exploiting that."

Guo Koutangzi warned.

"Alright. Anything else?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"No, that’s all I know. You could ask the people at Jidao Public Bath, they probably know more than I do."

Guo Koutangzi suggested.

The bathhouse is inherently a place where information flows, and considering its na, Jidao Public Bath must have deep connections with the underworld.
