Chapter 205: Chapter 204: I’m Going to Enter Your Cardboard Box Now

"What do super supreme royal deep sea burst multi-headed abalones have to do with me and their cost?"

The Box Spider turned its eyeballs as it spoke.

"No way, you actually remembered that?"

Liu Zheng was shocked.

"Hmph, our memory is far better than you humans."

The Box Spider proudly said.

"So, does that mean your brain has mutated into being socially anxious and manic?"

He said with hollow eyes.

"Mind your own business!"

The Box Spider yelled.

"I don’t want to either. Stop talking nonsense and pay up."

Liu Zheng extended a tentacle.

"Why should I pay for your super supreme royal deep sea burst multi-headed abalones?"

"Because if you hadn’t attacked me, I wouldn’t have used this abalone."

He said.

"The toy attacked you, not me. Besides, it was just playing with you, not attacking. You overreacted and even broke my toy. I should be asking you to pay for my toy."

The Box Spider said in a rapid pace.

"Where have I heard this argument before?"

Liu Zheng scratched his earhole, looking puzzled.

"Oh, I remember now, the guy who was walked by a dog said the same thing."

He thought for a moment, then realized.

"Great, that guy moved so quickly, I didn’t get enough fun. Now you can bear the consequences for him."

The suppressed irritability finally unleashed by its master, and a burst of anger turned Liu Zheng’s skin pink.

The cracked lines looked like the segments of armor, and his expanding muscles filled the Legendary Armor.

"Ready? I’m about to enter your cardboard box~"

His tone was frivolous, but his gaze was as chilling as a harsh winter.

"Wait a moment."

The Box Spider hurriedly said, its voice somewhat panicked.

"Speak."

Liu Zheng whipped out his tentacle, and the boning knife plunged straight into the ground in front of the cardboard box, burying its hilt.

Although his character panel didn’t show the "Angry Fire Burning Body" bonus, he estimated that his strength must have exceeded a hundred by now.

"How much do I owe for that super supreme royal deep sea burst multi-headed abalones?"

The Box Spider stammered.

"Not much, a million is enough."

Liu Zheng said with a smile.

"A million! That’s so expensive, why don’t you just rob someone?!"

The Box Spider exclaimed angrily.

"A million, and I could buy a mermaid’s abalones with that."

"How is that expensive? It’s been that price for years, alright?"

Liu Zheng said emphatically.

"Sometimes you need to reflect on yourself, whether you’ve been running your store properly or squeezing your employees hard enough."

"I don’t have employees, how can I squeeze them?"

The Box Spider said somewhat plaintively.

"Then go hire some. If you can’t hire, trick them. If you can’t trick them, buy them. If you can’t buy them, rob them."

"There are so many pet stores, so many farms, filled with cheap and useful labor. The pet store ’Sunshine’’s human pets seem pretty good."

He said.

"’Sunshine’ pet store... Wait, you’re that delivery guy who blew up the whole street!"

The Box Spider suddenly exclaimed.

"You’re quite well-informed for someone who has autism. Yes, it’s none other than me."

Liu Zheng said modestly.

"You’re not here to blow up my store, are you?"

The Box Spider asked fearfully.

"That depends on whether you behave. By the way, I’ve also been commissioned to blow up another store soon."

"If you don’t cooperate, then I’ll have the person prepare double the explosives and test them on you first."

He said leisurely.

"...Fine, I’ll pay."

The Box Spider said after a moment of silence.

"That’s more like it."

Liu Zheng pulled out the boning knife.

"But paying a million is impossible."

"Not a million, deduct the cost of the threads which is fifty thousand, you just give me five hundred thousand more and that’s enough."

He corrected.

"Five hundred thousand is also impossible, I’ll pay you one hundred thousand at most, otherwise just blow up the store, I have insurance anyway."

The Box Spider stated resolutely.

"Then throw in a piece of lingerie and a keyboard mat."

Liu Zheng backed down.

"Okay, but it can only be done with regular silk thread."

"Deal."

The parties made concessions and finally reached an agreement.

"Look at you, selling it to me directly would have been simpler, but no, we both had to suffer losses."

He sighed.

While the price of special silk thread was certainly much higher than that of the multi-headed abalones, for Liu Zheng, the value of the multi-headed abalones was nearly half as perfect an item.

"Hmph, why conduct business when you can rob?"

The Box Spider retorted.

"Indeed, it’s in keeping with the culture of Metropolis."

Liu Zheng nodded.

The Box Spider turned around, presenting its backside to him.

Then, a translucent glowing silk thread sprayed out from its spinneret.

After spraying about a meter long, the Box Spider stopped.

"Is that it? That’s hardly enough to make a sock."

Liu Zheng questioned.

"What do you know, this is just the necessary material, not the main material, this much is enough. I even gave you a bit extra."

The Box Spider countered.

"Alright then."

He tentatively believed it.

After all, if he found out the Box Spider was tricking him when he got back, he would show it what being flammable and explosive meant.

"What about the lingerie and the keyboard mat?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"How can I make them if you don’t tell me the styles?"

Box Spider remained silent.

"I need a red set suitable for Niu Ma to wear. As for the keyboard, a regular one will do, just embroider it with cherry blossoms."

He pondered and said.

The novelist still gave off a very Japanese vibe.

"Typical of you humans, truly perverse."

A hint of disdain gleamed in Box Spider’s small eyes.

"What, I’m buying it for someone else."

"That makes it even more perverse."

Upon hearing his explanation, Box Spider looked down on him even more.

"...Stop talking nonsense and just make it."

Liu Zheng said impatiently.

"Hmph."

Box Spider then closed the box, and the cave was plunged into darkness once again.

However, this time there was no sound of toy attacks, just the busy sounds of Box Spider inside the box.

Ten minutes later, the box opened.

"Here, take this and get out. You’re not welcome here."

A bag was pushed out containing a neatly folded red undergarment and a black keyboard pad embroidered with pinkish-white cherry blossoms.

"You talk as if I want to come here."

Liu Zheng retorted.

If it weren’t for the matter pushing him, he would rather be sleeping in the lounge, sleep for a good half a year, and then just check out and leave.

Liu Zheng opened the delivery box and placed both the glowing silk thread and the bag inside.

"Oh, how could I forget these?"

Seeing the contents inside the delivery box, he scratched his head.

But it wasn’t a big deal—it could wait until he got back to give it to Big White Goose as well.

"Hey, an All Worm Banquet is definitely out of the question, but would you eat office building bugs?"

He asked.

"Hmm?"

Box Spider peered out.

"Here."

Liu Zheng took out a bug head and half a bug torso from the delivery box and threw them on the ground.

These were casually collected after rescuing the cleaner, but he forgot to give them to Big White Goose.

Two strands of spider silk shot out from the box, dragging both the bug head and torso inside.

The box was lifted a lot to drag the bugs, but inside, only the red eyes of Box Spider were visible.

"Crunch, crunch."

The sound of chewing soon came from inside.

"Don’t think, crunch, that a little kindness, crunch crunch, will make me like you, crunch."

Box Spider said intermittently.

"Oh, leaving now."

Liu Zheng waved his tentacle and turned to leave the "Silk Cave."

This fellow also counted as a life skills NPC with unique abilities. The likelihood to recycle his cooperation was quite high, so if the relationship could be mended, it was worth a try.

If it wasn’t appreciative, next time he would flip its box, squeeze out all its spider silk, drain its last bit of value, and also give Silk Spider Mother a little human shock.

"All done?"

Back in the car, the driver asked.

"Done, just used up a life-saving item,"

Liu Zheng said somewhat regretfully.

If he had known, he would have taken a bath first or even soaked in the dirty river; he didn’t believe Box Spider could still smell him.

"Don’t worry, I’m not like those gray beasts that only take from people; the payment will satisfy you,"

the driver consoled.

"Er, I didn’t mean that."

It was just a casual remark.

"I understand."

The driver nodded and then stepped on the accelerator.

Arriving at Rose Street, Liu Zheng greeted French Plane Tree and then headed straight for the sewer.

Red Ghost wasn’t waiting outside anymore, but the shelter’s main door was still there.

Entering the shelter, the children were singing.

"Goodbye dear homeland"

"The star of victory will shine upon us"

"Goodbye, mother"

"Don’t be sad, don’t grieve"

"Wish us a safe journey"

...

The children’s voices were naive and innocent, which only made Liu Zheng feel sadder.

"Electrician Mister is back!"

Galina spotted him at once and cheered as she rushed toward him.

The other children also joyously called out and followed behind her.

"Electrician Mister, the teacher said you brought me a nice documentary, is that true?"

Galina jumped into Liu Zheng’s arms and looked up at him.

"Of course, it’s true."

He extended a tentacle to adjust the little girl’s crooked headband.

"Hooray!"

All the children cheered together.

"After the children had their dessert, they’ve been waiting for you to come."

Red Ghost floated over.

"I just shot some random stuff, the quality may not be very good."

Liu Zheng took out the DV and handed it back to it.

"No worries, in this shelter, any bit of something new is interesting,"

Red Ghost said forgivingly.

"If you trust my word, you could let the children play on the ground."

He hesitated before saying.

"I trust you, young man, and so do the children. But they cannot leave the shelter,"

Red Ghost shook its head.

"Then next time I’ll bring them some toys, books, DVDs, or something."

Liu Zheng said.

The newspaper stand owner likely sold more than just adult magazines.

"I thank you on behalf of the children. But you better not come again,"

Red Ghost said.

"Why?"

"Tell me, who are you?"

Red Ghost stared into his eyes and asked.
