Chapter 133: Chapter 133 The louder you call me auntie, the more excited I get

The countdown was aiming to hit zero.

Liu Zheng suddenly had a stroke of genius and dived to the other side of the blast.

With his back to the finish line, he curled into a ball, using his tentacles to firmly protect his head.

"BOOM!!!!"

The next second, endless light and heat were released before his eyes.

Liu Zheng only felt a buzz in his head, and then he felt nothing.

When he woke up, he found himself lying at the entrance of the "Aladdin" apartment.

"Congratulations, Bloody Restaurant delivery guy, you won the competition,"

Red Dragonfly extended the Referee Stick, lifting him up.

Liu Zheng checked his body and found he was unscathed.

The courier had already left at some point.

"Your use of the props was spot on, and your decision-making when facing the blast was truly eye-catching."

"This competition was very exciting and moved me deeply."

"As a reward, I will grant you the Golden Champion Medal, hoping you will continue to contribute to more exciting competitions for the city."

Red Dragonfly poked his chest with the Referee Stick and immediately, a golden medal with an engraving of a dragonfly with a human face appeared on his vest.

"Name: Golden Champion Medal"

"Type: Miscellaneous"

"Quality: Excellent"

"Effect: Wearing it may get you some preferential treatment."

"Note: Only champions who have created thrilling competitions can obtain this medal, and collecting ten medals will cause a qualitative change."

"Is it transferable outside the instance: No"

"Don’t forget what you promised me, see you next competition."

"Oh haha haha~"

Accompanied by a hearty laugh, Red Dragonfly spread its wings and flew into the sky, soon disappearing behind the clouds.

"Thanks, better not meet again though."

Although the competition was fair and the prize was nice, it’s better to have fewer of these sudden situations.

Liu Zheng shook his head and headed towards the apartment’s main gate.

Naturally, the structure of the apartment was different from that of the community.

A large metal door was tightly closed, with no visible intercom.

Liu Zheng looked around and spotted a security office in the corner.

He walked over and knocked on the window, the person inside opened it.

"What do you want?"

An impatient grandma, wearing home clothes and holding a newspaper, asked.

"Hello, I’m here to deliver food, could you please open the door?"

Liu Zheng said politely.

"Then wait for the security guard to come and let him open it for you,"

the grandma said.

"Aren’t you the security guard?"

If you’re not the security guard why are you inside the security office chatting nonsense with me?

"Which of your eyes sees me as a security guard? I’m just here to mooch off the newspapers,"

the grandma retorted unhappily.

"When will the security guard be back?"

"Hard to say, he went to the loo, could be back in an hour or take half a day,"

the grandma said.

"Half a day???"

Is he going to poop or throw a party in there?

Even if it’s just an hour, that’s already past the deadline.

"It’s that long. If you’re willing to wait, wait; if not, just leave and don’t distract me from my newspaper,"

the grandma stated.

"Don’t even think about climbing through the window, I have the alarm right next to me,"

she threatened as she saw Liu Zheng’s eager expression.

"Tsk."

He casually kicked at the grass.

"How about you just help me open the door?"

Liu Zheng switched to a voice tone that grandmas generally liked.

"I could help you open the door, but what’s in it for me?"

The grandma revealed a shrewd smile.

"This little money for you to buy some newspapers."

He handed over a couple of banknotes.

"Silly boy, you really thought your grandma is hanging around here just to mooch newspapers?"

"Your grandma might not be rich, but I do own a few properties and cars,"

the grandma said without taking the money.

"Then what are you?"

"It’s because I fancy your Uncle Wang; he’s got a strong body and treats people kindly,"

she mentioned Uncle Wang, likely referring to the security guard.

"But I think you’re not bad either—strong build, solid voice, and all these tentacles,"

the grandma couldn’t help but slurp her saliva.

"Grandma just installed a new home KTV set in her place, which hasn’t been used yet. If you come and sing with me, I’ll open the door for you. Singing me happy, I might even reward you,"

she gave Liu Zheng a supposedly seductive smile.

The purple strap of her bra slipped out, revealing a formidable bosom.

"Ah! My eyes!"

Liu Zheng inwardly wailed, unexpectedly faced with this scene.

He almost wished he could gouge his eyes out and grow a new, clean pair.

"Well, actually I’m tone-deaf,"

he said, forcing a smile.

"It’s fine, you don’t need to know how to sing, just to scream,"

"The louder you yell, the more Grandma likes it,"

the grandma laughed with a sly, gleeful expression.

"Yikes~"

Unable to bear it any longer, Liu Zheng turned and retched a few times, then fled back to the gate like a refugee.

"Hey, I’m here."

He called Nightingale.

"Pretty quick, then come on up,"

Nightingale said.

"The door’s locked; I can’t get in, come down and open it for me,"

Liu Zheng said.

"I can’t open it, I’m not allowed to leave while waiting for the delivery,"

Nightingale said regretfully.

"Is that a rule?"

He was taken aback.

But thinking about it, if the person who ordered could just leave at will, then the delivery wouldn’t reach them.

"Don’t you guys have some kind of smart lock or something?"

Liu Zheng said helplessly.

"No."

"I don’t care, you need to find a way to open the door for me."

"I rescued you, and you turn around and order takeout to trap me? That’s not even remotely fair."

He said angrily.

"Who trapped you?"

Nightingale seemed to roll her eyes.

"You’re a delivery person and can’t even get through the main gate, so how were you delivering before?"

She retorted.

"This time is different."

"What’s different?"

Nightingale persisted.

"Before, those guards were drooling over my ’meat’, now this one is drooling over my body."

Liu Zheng said somewhat bashfully.

"Ah? Hahaha!!!"

Nightingale burst into astonishing laughter.

The laughter was mixed with the sound of her slapping her thighs.

"Something’s wrong though, I remember the guard being an uncle, right?"

After she finished laughing, she said perplexed.

"The guard went off because of constipation, there’s an aunty in the guard room now."

"Oh, is she also wearing purple underwear?"

Nightingale asked.

"Exactly, exactly. How did you know?"

"Sea girl told me. Almost every male in this building has been harassed by her, some have succumbed and others haven’t."

Nightingale explained.

"Is it that outrageous?"

"Actually, it’s not too bad. I heard she pays quite generously, and none of the males she used died, the worst case was just a guy left impotent."

"Anyway, you can regenerate your flesh and blood, right? Just cut it off and grow a new one."

"It’s fine, I won’t hold it against you."

Nightingale said teasingly.

"Stop relishing my misfortune. Hurry up, think of a solution, or else return to where you came from."

Liu Zheng snapped.

"Now that I’m out, getting me back there would be difficult."

Nightingale said leisurely.

"Is that so?"

He sneered.

"I’ll go to City Hall now and report that you masterminded the sewer eggs incident, aiming to create instability in the city and subvert the rule of City Hall."

"Guess whether City Hall might just break down the windows to apprehend you in a sack."

Liu Zheng threatened.

"Then you would have to join me in there."

"I don’t care; I’ve got nothing much to lose, better to die than suffer humiliation."

"Plus, our boss values me quite a bit. He probably wouldn’t waste such a useful employee."

He said confidently.

"Hmph!"

Nightingale fell silent.

When it came to family and wealth, Liu Zheng was no different from an ant compared to her.

But regarding connections, she far surpassed him.

Of course, that’s assuming the owner of Bloody Restaurant really would go toe-to-toe with City Hall for a delivery guy.

But considering this guy actually managed to rescue her from City Hall, it’s hard to say.

Could it be that Liu Zheng is actually that woman’s lover?

"Hurry up, or I’m going to City Hall now to expose you."

Liu Zheng grew impatient.

"Fine, when sea girl comes back, I’ll tell her you forced me."

Nightingale said helplessly.

Seconds later, a huge explosion sounded above him.

Liu Zheng looked up to see smoke billowing out of a window on the 12th floor.

"Fire~ Everybody run~"

Nightingale’s head popped out of the window, her hands cupped around her mouth as she shouted.

As she yelled, she winked at Liu Zheng.

Her demeanor and tone were as exaggerated as they could be.

Just as he was pondering what Nightingale was up to, a piercing alarm blared out from the apartment.

"Kacha Kacha!"

The iron gate automatically opened, and scores of bizarre figures dashed out of the apartment.

Liu Zheng hadn’t even reacted before he was knocked into the air, and as he fell back down, he was hit again, unable to stop himself.

"Damn, is this a parade of ghosts or a stampede of beasts?"

He tumbled through the air, commenting sarcastically.

It took another ten minutes before things finally stopped emerging from the apartment.

Liu Zheng moved his freshly healed, fractured body and walked through the apartment’s main gate.

The fire alarm was still sounding; he wondered if Nightingale making a false alarm would cause any trouble.

From what she said, there probably would be, but the blame might fall on sea girl.

But it didn’t matter, Liu Zheng didn’t feel guilty tricking either of them.

He found the elevator and went up to the 12th floor.

The corridor was lined with closely packed doors, its far end shrouded in extending darkness.

In that darkness, many other doors seemed eager to let things in or to let things out.

Liu Zheng felt a chilling sense rise up within him, as if he were a miniaturized human who had mistakenly wandered into a hive of killer bees.

When he first graduated, he had also rented a similar apartment.

It wasn’t as eerie, but it was equally suffocating.

He had only lived there for two months, which had undone a year’s worth of effort by his therapist.

Liu Zheng, holding the Golden Finger and the grinding stick, began to search for Nightingale’s room.

It wasn’t an easy task because the arrangement of rooms on this floor was completely irregular.

For instance, to his right was room 1208, and directly opposite was 12306.

After searching in one direction for eight minutes, he still couldn’t find 1219.

Looking at the endless sequence of room numbers, Liu Zheng felt he might get lost in a corridor.

Left without options, he had to call Nightingale again.

"Hey, there are just too many rooms; I can’t find 1219."

"There’s nothing I can do, I can’t make a move like I did just now, or we both could end up caught by security," Nightingale replied.

"Then do this, keep knocking hard on your door, and I’ll follow the sound to find you," Liu Zheng suggested.

"Alright, I’ll try that."

After hanging up the phone, heavy knocking sounds immediately started.

He looked towards where the sound was coming from, feeling momentarily relieved only for it to turn to cold dread.

Because.

All the doors began knocking.
