The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human? -
Chapter 135 Niu Ma: If you can’t squeeze her, I’ll squeeze you
Chapter 135: Chapter 135 Niu Ma: If you can’t squeeze her, I’ll squeeze you
"Yeah, not only am I broke now, but I’m also being hunted down,"
Nightingale said frankly.
"Weren’t you rescued? Can your siblings still punish you?"
"It’s easy to lose what you have, hard to regain what you’ve lost."
Nightingale spread her hands.
"Besides, my father was never happy about my relationship with the sea girl, so he just used it as an excuse to force me into a political marriage, or he would keep freezing my assets,"
"Your non-human kind is so feudal too?"
Liu Zheng was quite surprised.
He thought these non-humans would have no taboos, causing chaos at the drop of a hat.
"The more non-human the species, the more rules they have. You humans have the fewest restrictions of all races,"
"So, there’s a rumor in high society that the chief speaker at City Hall, whom no one has ever seen, is actually a human,"
Nightingale said.
"I don’t think so,"
Liu Zheng shook his head.
Although he had only been in this world for a few days, the city didn’t feel like it was being run by a human.
Of course, maybe the humans of this world were different from those in the real world.
"It doesn’t matter. That level of matter is even out of my father’s reach, let alone a lost dog like me."
"So, that’s the situation. What do you think?"
Nightingale asked.
"My take? Can you unfreeze your assets by taking out your dad?"
"I appreciate your bold idea, but unfortunately, it won’t work,"
Nightingale gave him a thumbs up and then shook her head.
"My father is the only one in the family who loves me. If he died, I would immediately be sold to another family as Star Fury."
"Your dad loves you but still lets your siblings chase you down?"
"Just putting some pressure on me, how else to force me to break up with the sea girl?"
Nightingale shrugged.
"Hah, I feel like your dad and the sea girl’s dad would have a lot in common,"
Liu Zheng said.
Both old Lao Dengs keen on breaking up lovers.
"Maybe. If there’s a chance, I’ll let them meet,"
"Can’t kill your dad, how about killing your siblings?"
He offered another suggestion.
As long as Nightingale became the sole heir, her dad would probably accept his fate.
After all, being a lesbian doesn’t stop her from having kids.
"Good idea. They’ve got a secret gathering coming up in a few days. I’ll let you know once it’s confirmed,"
Nightingale clapped her hands.
"You were waiting for me to bring this up, weren’t you?"
Liu Zheng curled his lip.
"Of course, you are our backbone, after all,"
Nightingale gave him a flirtatious look.
So, the kinds of girls who blow up apartments are weak, right?
"Don’t tell me. I’m not going,"
Liu Zheng was unmoved.
With his capability, bullying some community security was manageable, but taking on these high-born folks was out of his league.
"Just me and the sea girl can’t take down my siblings,"
"If we can’t beat them, we can’t beat them. It was originally just a deal between me and the sea girl, getting her payoff is enough,"
He said calmly.
"As for your money, whether or not I get it doesn’t matter."
Birds die for food, and Liu Zheng was hardly human these days, so naturally, he didn’t need to die for money.
Nightingale seemed not to have expected this reply and looked at Liu Zheng a bit dazed.
"Do you know how much money of mine is frozen?"
After a long silence, she asked.
"I don’t know."
"And do you know how much money I would get if I became the sole heir?"
"I don’t know."
"I’ve seen that Niu Ma, it’s indeed powerful. But if I become the sole heir, I could buy ten of its lives."
Nightingale raised her eyebrow, a display of dominant aura.
"Impressive, impressive. But how would I know that after I help you become the sole heir, you won’t turn around and buy my life?"
Liu Zheng asked calmly.
"We could make a contract."
"How much?"
"Ten million, a safe figure for both of us."
Nightingale said.
Ten million wouldn’t be too much for Nightingale to bear, so she wouldn’t risk breaching the contract.
And for him, ten million was quite a lot, enough to hire Niu Ma to deliver food until he had to return to the instance.
However, Liu Zheng still didn’t plan to help.
This kind of high-society scandal, let alone getting involved, even knowing about it was trouble.
Killing Nightingale’s siblings, her dad might not punish his favorite daughter, but he definitely wouldn’t let him, the accomplice, go free.
Such disputes beyond work, it was hard to say how much help being a Bloody Restaurant employee could offer.
"I can’t earn this money. However, I can ask around to see if anyone else is willing to take the job,"
Liu Zheng said and directly dialed Niu Ma’s number.
"What’s up?"
Niu Ma asked impatiently.
"Brother, I’ve got a piece of good news and a piece of bad news. Which do you want to hear first?"
"The bad news."
"Nightingale is broke, she has no money for us,"
Liu Zheng said.
"Shit! Then stuff that woman back into City Hall’s jail,"
Niu Ma cursed.
"We’ll talk about that later, first listen to the good news,"
"What’s the good news?"
"The good news is, she’s offered us a chance to make ten million."
"How much?!"
Niu Ma screamed.
"Ten million,"
Liu Zheng repeated.
"Damn, with ten million, why the hell would I still smuggle? What does that woman want us to do?"
Niu Ma asked excitedly.
"She wants us to wipe out her siblings."
...
"Then I might as well stick to my smuggling."
Niu Ma’s voice calmed down.
"Boss, it’s just killing a few people, what’s there to be afraid of? If worse comes to worst, we’ll just take the money and find a safe place to hide."
He urged.
"Hide?"
Niu Ma sneered.
"Where in the world is absolutely safe? Even if you hide in the sewers, those bounty hunters can still drag you out."
"Then let’s flee the country, leave this place."
Liu Zheng seized the opportunity to speak.
"Flee the country? You wish. The border management bureau of the City Hall is a hundred times more powerful than the Security Bureau. Without permission, not even a spore can drift out."
Niu Ma scoffed.
So there really was a border!
Upon hearing Niu Ma’s words, he widened his eyes.
Actually, this had always been Liu Zheng’s question.
Whether this world truly existed, or if it was a fictitious world created by Hell’s Game.
If the city had no borders, or if these strange residents weren’t aware of the concept of borders, then it would definitely be a fictional world.
But since Niu Ma specifically mentioned there were borders, and there was even a border management agency, this world was most likely real.
Just didn’t know what was beyond the border?
"Boss, can we discuss what’s beyond the border?"
Liu Zheng tentatively asked.
"Sure, we can discuss, but no one will discuss with you."
Niu Ma said.
"Why?"
"Because no one knows what’s beyond the border."
"Only those specially approved by City Hall can leave the border, and when they re-enter, they forget what happened beyond the border. They only remember when they go out again."
Niu Ma explained.
"How do you know this?"
"It’s that relative who’s a delivery guy at City Hall."
"Having connections sure is nice."
Liu Zheng remarked.
"Exactly, why do you think I sought to connect with other Niu Mas after I got out?"
Niu Ma said.
"So we’re definitely not doing this deal then?"
"No, we’re not. I don’t believe that woman doesn’t have anything valuable. You squeeze her hard for me. If you can’t squeeze anything out, come back and I’ll squeeze you."
Niu Ma said fiercely.
"Got it."
He hung up the phone and looked at Nightingale.
"Did you hear that? My boss told me to squeeze you good."
"I don’t mind. But who squeezes whom might be up for debate."
Nightingale stretched out a long leg and teased him with her hoof.
"Enough with the teasing. Give me the payment Sea Woman promised me first."
Liu Zheng snapped her leg away with a tentacle, making a sharp "smack" sound.
"Really have no appreciation for mood. Here, take this."
Nightingale pulled out a box from her chest and threw it on the table.
The gray-white stone box was only the size of a palm and looked more like a coffin in shape.
Liu Zheng picked up the box with his tentacle, feeling somewhat anxious, as if he was holding a "Tsar Hydrogen Bomb."
What troubled him equally, however, was that the system did not pop up with any item prompts.
What does that mean?
Could it be that Sea Woman had not truly intended to give this thing to him?
No, if that were the case, there was no need for Nightingale to meet with him at all.
And now, considering the current state between the two women, there were still many areas where they needed to collaborate with him.
Or perhaps, the true owner of this box, who was Nightingale’s mother, hadn’t died, so the property rights hadn’t transferred?
Liu Zheng couldn’t think of an answer at the moment, but it wasn’t a major issue.
After all, this thing was a special attack weapon for the Chaos Club, and he already knew how to use it.
"Let’s go."
Liu Zheng patted his butt, preparing to leave.
This time, it wasn’t convenient to reach across the table, so he patted his own.
"You’re really not going to help me?"
Nightingale propped her hands on the table and tilted her head to look at him.
"Can’t help. Besides, with my abilities, it’s good enough if I don’t hold you back."
Liu Zheng shook his head.
"You have such wide connections, why not help us make some contacts?"
Nightingale was persistent.
"The capable ones don’t have the time, and those with time aren’t capable enough."
He was explaining when suddenly a thought struck him.
"However, there is still an opportunity to make some small money."
"What opportunity?"
Nightingale became interested.
She didn’t want to always depend on Sea Woman’s charity, especially since Sea Woman didn’t have much to offer her.
Besides, she needed some initial funds to defy her father’s sanctions.
"Hang on, I’ll ask her first if she’s willing to tell you."
Liu Zheng walked aside and called Vampire Sister.
"Hello, I’ve found you some help."
"Really? Who, your big boss?"
Vampire Sister curiously asked.
"No, it’s Sea Woman and her blonde friend."
He said.</p
