The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human? Chapter 998 645: Liu Zheng, How Long Can You Live? (Part 2)

Luo Ping introduced.

"Oh. Is your father still around?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"He's already buried in the cetery."

Luo Ping replied.

"That's good."

That way, there's no need to greet the bust.

"And who is that?"

He noticed a person wrapped in a cloak painted on the stained glass behind the bust.

"That's my grandfather, Luon Morrison, who was the last priest of this church. Mr. Liu, are you interested in hearing the story?"

Luo Ping asked.

"If you can finish it in half an hour, I'm interested."

Liu Zheng glanced at the ti and said.

"It won't take that long, fifteen minutes is enough. Please sit, I'll prepare so drinks for you."

Luo Ping found the widest table for them to sit at, then went upstairs.

Quickly, he ca down with a bottle of sparkling wine and three tall glasses.

"The school's finances are tight, this bottle of wine was left by my grandfather, I hope you won't mind."

Luo Ping said after pouring the wine.

"No worries, I'm not picky about food and drink. And neither should you."

Before Panda said anything rude, Liu Zheng cut it off.

"Tch~"

Panda took a sip from the tall glass, showing a disdainful expression as expected.

"This church originally belonged to a small sect called the Movi Brotherhood. My grandfather, Luon Morrison, was originally a thief who ca to the church one day to steal food, only to be caught by a priest."

"The priest beat him up and then asked if he wanted to join the Movi Brotherhood. If not, they would execute him. My grandfather agreed to join to save his own life."

"Fortunately, after joining the sect, the priest treated him well, even teaching him to read and write."

"But the good tis didn't last long. The priest's favoritism towards my grandfather aroused jealousy among the other mbers. They wanted to kill my grandfather while the priest was away."

"Luckily, my grandfather had always been vigilant, so he fought his way out, though injured."

"In their relentless pursuit, my grandfather fled into the sewer."

"My grandfather never told us what he experienced in the sewer. Anyway, when he returned to the surface, he had transford from a pure human into a being made of maggots and feces."

"After returning to the church, my grandfather exacted his revenge, killing everyone except the priest. The priest didn't bla him, but couldn't accept the reality and chose to commit suicide."

"My grandfather wasn't a true believer, and after taking over the church, he didn't recruit any new followers, just guarded the church alone."

"In a twist of fate, my father LeBron Morrison also ca to the church to steal, only to be caught by my grandfather."

"Rembering his own experiences, my grandfather beat my father and asked if he wanted to beco his adopted son. If not, he would execute him. My father agreed to survive."

"Later, feeling his body about to collapse, my grandfather went on a journey and returned with a large sum of money and treasures for my father, then turned into a puddle of sewage."

"To commorate him, my father replaced the image on the stained glass with my grandfather's."

"My father then converted the church into a primary school, started enrolling nearby children, and appointed himself as both the principal and teacher."

"The principle was to charge a fee, but in reality, if they couldn't pay, my father wouldn't kick them out. Over ti, the primary school beca a welfare shelter."

Luo Ping recounted in one breath.

"And then you ca to steal from the primary school, got caught by your father, beaten, and asked if you wanted to beco like him, with execution as the alternative?"

Liu Zheng anticipated the plot.

"Ah, that didn't happen."

Luo Ping shook his head.

"So you're biological?"

"No, I got beaten for a prank and then beca my father's adopted son."

Luo Ping said.

"Your adoption process is quite standardized."

He squinted his eyes and said.

"Later, a gang wanted to take over here and turn the teachers and students into their subordinates. My father had no choice but to lead the teachers against the gang's main force, while I led the other children against the small fry."

"In the end, my father and the teachers were all killed, and among the children, only Jian and I survived."

"So I beca the second principal of Morrison Primary School, and Jian beca the second overseer."

"To raise funds, I started using my natural ability to earn money as a detective, and with the money I saved and what my father left behind, I commissioned soone to create this magic circle called 'Absolute Shelter'."

"Once the security asures were in place, I resud enrollnt. Jian took care of managing the school, while I continued working as a detective to earn money, up to the present."

At this point, Luo Ping finally concluded his story.

Liu Zheng checked his phone; it was exactly ten minutes.

No wonder he's a detective, he's very ti-conscious.

"So what's your condition?"

He asked.

"Firstly, I want a million in cash as a reward."

Luo Ping stated.

"Fine."

"Secondly, I want you to serve as the legal representative of Morrison Primary School."

Luo Ping continued.

"It's not that I can't agree, and I pretty much understand your intention. But are you sure you want as the legal representative? Don't be fooled by my fragile, dying appearance; I might die before you and won't even leave a shred of soul."

Liu Zheng reminded.

"Then... please find soone substantial enough to serve as the legal representative of Morrison Primary School, but the contract must specify that the legal representative cannot interfere with the school's daily operations unless laws or regulations are violated."

Luo Ping considered and said.

"Alright."

He nodded.

Luo Ping simply wanted a backer for Morrison Primary School, and he had plenty of choices.

Novelist, Fei Shibu, The Fool, 4399, Silver Wolf... any of them would be enough to cover them.

By the way, official employees of City Hall might not be able to work part-ti in businesses; check with 4399 and see.

"Huh? Wait a minute."

Liu Zheng thought of a better way.

"You know Doctor Nile, right?"

He asked.

"Yes, I've heard Doctor dical Bee ntion him. His dical skills are quite good. It's just that his treatnt thods are rather niche and expensive, so I haven't gone to him for treatnt."

Luo Ping nodded.

"Not only that, his power and character are also excellent, and we're very close. If I have him move the clinic to the primary school and have him serve as both the legal representative and school doctor, what do you think?"

"That... sounds pretty good."

Luo Ping was tempted.

The importance of a doctor is self-evident; the Old City District has nurous sources of disease, and the quality of dical skills is uneven.

Although Luo Ping had bought plenty of common dicine from dical Bee, there were always instances where the dicine wasn't right for the condition.

Over the years, there haven't been any deaths from illness, but several have suffered permanent aftereffects.

He didn't say it aloud, but he felt guilty.

Moreover, a mummy is an Immortal Species. If Doctor Nile becos the protector of Morrison Primary School, several generations of Morrisons wouldn't have to worry about the school's safety.

"I think it's a great idea too.

Liu Zheng nodded.

First, with the 'Absolute Shelter' magic circle, the clinic's safety is further secured.

Secondly, with so many children around, Sasha would have more playmates, which would be beneficial for her intellectual recovery.

Lastly, Doctor Nile could develop followers among these children, fulfilling his duties as a priest.

"So this is settled for now. I'll discuss it with the doctor when I return, and if he's willing, we'll negotiate further. If not, I'll find soone else."

"Alright. Then, the last condition."

Luo Ping's expression beca more serious.

"Once I accept this commission, unless I request otherwise, you shouldn't interfere or influence my actions in any way, and try to help resolve other variables."

"I can only ensure this while I'm alive. I can't control Bai Tianshi's family after I die."

Liu Zheng shrugged.

"How long do you expect to live?"

Luo Ping asked.

"Three days, I shouldn't die within three days."

He thought for a mont and said.

"Alright, within three days, I'll definitely complete this commission."

Luo Ping said resolutely.
