The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human? Chapter 395 - 345 Actually, the Sphinx Isn’t Bad Either, Wit

The disdain of the Sphinx was about to burst through, which Liu Zheng had noticed as well.

"No, how could that be? I, Niu Ma, am always friendly and good-natured, never stirring up trouble, okay?"

Niu Ma vehently denied.

"Heh-heh."

He curled his lips, an expression that said he didn’t believe a ghost of what you said.

"We et again."

As he passed by the Sphinx, he greeted it.

The Sphinx twitched its tail, as if to respond.

But when Niu Ma passed by, a swift claw shadow shot towards its rear like a clap of thunder.

And Niu Ma also swung its horse’s tail, shattering the claw shadow.

"Eh-heh, missed. I an, you’re a fine lion, so why go around digging like a hyena?"

Niu Ma said with a smirk.

"Enough, enough, stop quarreling. You’re both hundreds or even thousands of years old non-humans, why act like kids fighting?"

Liu Zheng quickly stepped in between them to break up the fight.

"It’s not your place to ddle in my business, kid."

"Humans who are too nosy."

Niu Ma and the Sphinx united in their hatred against him.

"I will ddle, what are you gonna do about it? If you delay the business further, you can forget about participating in the trade with Unlucky Coffee. As for you, I just brought in a large batch of high-quality fish from the sewer. If you want to keep eating those tiny dried fish, just hold off beating him up until I’m not around."

Liu Zheng said, hands on hips.

"You dare threaten ? Did you lose your sense of respect? Hmph, seeing as you’re a female, I won’t stoop to your level," Niu Ma snorted haughtily, head high, and walked into the clinic.

The Sphinx looked at Liu Zheng, tilting its head. Just as it was about to speak, a trendous force hit its rear, and it was sent flying into the clinic.

"Hahaha, that’ll teach you for sticking your nose where it doesn’t belong. Now you know the lioness isn’t easy to ss with, right? Don’t think all females are easy to charm; there are people and non-humans out there who won’t fall for your tricks."

As Liu Zheng faced the ground, Niu Ma laughed boisterously.

"I wouldn’t have ended up like this if it weren’t for you dragging down. And you have the nerve to talk."

Liu Zheng rolled his eyes and got up off the ground.

"First you co one after the other, now you show up together. What, has my clinic turned into a rest lounge for your delivery departnt?"

Doctor Nile erged from the back room, speaking sowhat exasperatedly.

"What’s the matter, not welcoming us? I declare, your clinic has been requisitioned as a temporary rest point for our delivery departnt. How about that?"

Niu Ma said nonchalantly.

"With that shaless face of yours, you’ve been consistent for over a decade. So, tell , what do you want my help with this ti?"

Doctor Nile shook his head and asked.

"Who said anything about needing your help? We’re here to help you. Liu Zheng, show the good doctor the fine items I’ve bought."

Niu Ma commanded.

"What do you an ’you bought’? Clearly, it’s... well, never mind."

Liu Zheng took out the Hell Honey Yogurt and handed it to Doctor Nile.

"What in the world is this?"

He asked, puzzled.

The residents of tropolis, the stronger they are, the better they are at discerning the effects of items, but it doesn’t always work out.

"This is Hell Honey Yogurt, a specialty of the cetery. It’s said that even the Dead can perk up and beco alert after drinking this. Thinking it might be useful for Sasha, I bought two bottles."

Liu Zheng explained.

"Really?!"

Doctor Nile let out an excited cry, the bandages on his face even seed to move.

"Can’t say for sure, but the Dead surely benefit from it, and if it doesn’t work, just enjoy it as a drink."

He shrugged his shoulders.

After all, the details in the remarks were not as reliable as those directly indicated in the product effects.

But increasing Spiritual Attribute generally does improve intelligence and mory, and since it’s an all-around boost, it should be sowhat beneficial.

"Alright, alright, I’ll let Sasha try it in a bit."

Doctor Nile said eagerly.

"Why don’t you just give it to her now? We could also see how effective it is."

Liu Zheng suggested.

"Heh, keep dreaming! As long as you’re around, there’s no way I’d let Sasha co out and see people."

Doctor Nile stated decisively.

"Hey, that’s a bit hurtful, you know."

He objected.

His words made it sound as though he was so kind of beast with a penchant for violating wives and daughters.

"You’re not even human. Now, how much does it cost?"

Doctor Nile inquired.

"The original price is one hundred thousand, but after so bargaining, I’ll give you a discount, ten thousand per bottle."

Liu Zheng replied.

"I’ll give you the full price. Anything else? If not, make it quick and leave."

Doctor Nile pulled out two hundred thousand from the cash register and handed it over, then eagerly spoke out.

Without much ado, he’d made a profit of one hundred and eighty thousand. It’s no wonder clinic owners were so bold.

"There’s another thing, I’ve taken on a commission to rescue soone from the bath district, and I need a helper. After thinking it over, you’re the only suitable person around, are you willing to co with ?"

Liu Zheng put away the money as he spoke.

"The bath district? When?"

Dr. Nile asked.

"Hard to say, could be today, or maybe tomorrow,"

he replied.

In theory, it would definitely be best to have the Jinzi clan order a takeaway for Seiko and then make the delivery and carry out the rescue, which would be perfectly justified.

But considering the travel distance, plus the ti needed to gather intelligence and make connections at the Ga Ga Shuang Bathhouse, a takeaway order with a tiline of less than eight hours would probably not be doable.

He seriously doubted whether the Jinzi clan could afford such a price.

If they couldn’t place a takeaway order, then Liu Zheng would have to use his ti off to get it done.

"Okay, just give a call before we set off,"

Dr. Nile agreed without any hesitation.

"Alright."

Liu Zheng nodded, not saying much else.

With the relationship between Dr. Nile and their delivery departnt, a lot of things didn’t need to be said—they understood each other.

"Anything else for this ti?"

Dr. Nile asked.

"Nope,"

he shook his head.

"Then get going quickly!"

Dr. Nile, with one hand each, pushed them out of the clinic.

Despite looking dry and tough, the guy was genuinely strong.

Liu Zheng estimated that even if he really resisted, he wouldn’t be able to overpower him.

"Ha ha ha, you little guy also have a day when you’re kicked out,"

Niu Ma burst into laughter again.

Seeing this kid get frustrated three tis in one day made the trip worthwhile.

"Big shot, can you keep your schadenfreude laughter down? It’s disturbing my peace of mind,"

Liu Zheng said with an expressionless face.

"Hmph, it’s my nature to laugh, so what! Hurry up, give my money back,"

Niu Ma stretched out his hand.

"Here."

He counted out 120,000 and handed it to Niu Ma, but the latter did not retract his hand.

"What’s up?"

"Don’t play dumb, the interest, man,"

Niu Ma said.

"No way, it’s been less than an hour, and you still have the nerve to demand interest?"

Liu Zheng exclaid in shock.

"So what? Even if it was just one second, the interest due can’t be a penny less. Co on, if not, I’ll take it myself,"

Niu Ma said as he began to move his hooves and horns.

"Fine, fine, chalk it up to my bad luck,"

he quickly stepped back, dodging Niu Ma’s savory hooves, and handed over another stack of money.

"Just 5,000?"

Niu Ma counted the money, his eyes widening.

"For such a short period of borrowing, 5,000 in interest is already good. Take it or leave it, you won’t get a penny more; if not, you can beat to death,"

Liu Zheng stretched his neck out in a defiant hooligan manner.

"Fine, fine, chalk it up to my bad luck,"

Niu Ma repeated the sa words, swallowing all the bills.

"I’m off then,"

he bid farewell to the Sphinx.

"Next ti, if you don’t bring dried fish, don’t even think about getting in,"

a deep roar echoed in Liu Zheng’s ears.

"No problem, I’ll make sure you eat until you’re stuffed,"

he boasted magnanimously.

Just a single move had netted him 80,000, with this rate of making money, Niu Ma should recognize him as boss.

"Hmph, you’d better,"

the Sphinx closed its eyes upon hearing Liu Zheng’s promise.

"Actually, this female lion isn’t bad at all. She’s got a big butt, good for childbearing. Plus, seeing as she has a human face, you two probably don’t have any reproductive barriers,"

Niu Ma said as he rolled his eyes.

"How do you know? Have you checked?"

"Yeah,"

Niu Ma answered matter-of-factly.

"...Now I get why she’s not fond of you, you really deserve it, big shot,"

Liu Zheng looked at him with disdain and headed towards the sports car.
