I'm the King of Wage Earners in Lobotomy City

It seems this guy really didn't run away with the money.

Chapter 294 Fangs.

"We didn't sign any endorsement contract at all, after all, Wenduo is against it."

The cat, who had entered the toilet, responded in a low voice to the various questions from the tail-spotted creature, "And you wouldn't be inheriting my estate right now according to the contract, would you? I'm not dead yet."

Hearing this, Ogi's voice finally broke free of its restraint. She spoke with a mixture of shock and anger: "Where the hell have you been?! You haven't come back for months, leaving me to deal with so many troublemakers all by myself! And do you even know what a mess this place is in?!"

Hey!

I took the communicator away from my ear to stop myself from listening to her. Her voice was so shrill; it was bad for my heart every time I heard her speak, it always made me jump.

However, Wei Ban's professional skills were excellent, and even when he complained, he explained things clearly and logically, making Du Jue understand the current situation of L Nest.

The index, thumb, and middle fingers are all leading their gangs in territorial battles, and even the ring finger has recently become interested in the anomalies that have appeared in L Nest.

Due to the rampant distortions in the city, a large number of guilds and agencies employed by the World Wings have also begun investigating and hunting distortions in this area.

Given the vacancy in the World Wings' role in maintaining order here, a large number of dangerous criminals with bounties on their heads, as well as overly fanatical fans of urban girls, have flocked here.

"Of course, the most crucial thing is the endorphin warehouse left behind by Company L. Even World Wings is sending its troops to violently seize it."

The resentment manifested in the tail spots could even penetrate the communicator.

"Also, your disappearance was too sudden. A lot of crazy people came to the company to cause trouble. Even your sister or something came to me asking about your whereabouts. They think that the reason I haven't withdrawn the Wenduo endorsement is because I know you are still alive."

Ooban slammed his fist on the table in annoyance. "Do you know where I work? It's the safe house that Shamisen set up in the sewers! Given the huge commotion L Company made back then, everyone probably thought you were killed by some twisted or alien entity."

Du Jue could imagine the short man's change of expression just from his tone. "How come you're the only one who's sure I'm still alive? I'm a little surprised. I thought you would take the opportunity to take over Smile Company."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the fury on the tail suddenly dissipate.

A voice, filled with anticipation yet forced into a low voice, came through the communicator: "Nonsense! You said you wanted me to be the founder of World Wings, what use is this crappy back alley live-streaming company?! It would be a million times better to sell it to K Company and sell fried chicken in Nest than this."

"Ha, aren't you afraid I'll really die?"

Du Jue thought that Tail Spot's thought process was really strange.

Ogiban scoffed, "Without this much guts, would I be a high-ranking executive at K Company? I wouldn't be getting involved in this messy Green Trip. Besides, Du Jue, you've died several times and still managed to pop up. Even if you died right in front of me now, I'd still feel like you'd grown a new one."

"I'm not immortal, how could I die multiple times?"

Avoid immediate rebuttal.

When Wei Ban mentioned this, his tone became strange. "I was talking about Du Jue. Before, during the Smoke and Haze War, I thought he was dead and was preparing to split up the family. I didn't expect that she would misappropriate the perfect insect in the family. That perfect insect was male. Now that Du Jue has been resurrected, he has become male."

Du Jue, who was initially confused, immediately realized that the other party was referring to the chief, "The family... are you the last survivors of the Green Journey?"

"Probably. She's the only one among the founders who's from H Nest. But as I told you before, she took away the memories associated with the Emerald Journey when it was cleaned up. Don't ask me who she is."

The tail fin clearly didn't care about this.

"What is this 'Perfect Human Insect'? How can it possibly bring the dead back to life?"

"What are you asking for? Stop talking nonsense and come back here right now. The money has already been transferred, and all the WRAP train services from D Nest to L Nest today have been booked for you."

Tail Spot was clearly getting impatient.

"OK"

The sudden change in attitude towards the tail pattern made me ready to hang up.

"Wait! Don't you have anything else to tell me, Du Jue?"

Tail Spot hurriedly spoke.

This made Du Jue realize, "That's right, let's book two more seats, I'll take two people back with me."

Ootori immediately interrupted, annoyed: "That?! What's the most important thing for becoming the Wings of the World? Don't say you didn't do anything after disappearing for so many days!"

"You mean taking over the remnants of L Company? We should clean up the L Nest first before talking about this."

Avoid hastily adding other acquaintances back and casually sending a message to let them know you're safe.

Who knew that Wei Ban would immediately become agitated, "Absolutely not! I've been going around in circles with you just to hear this, it's the singularity technology for the stable and efficient production of endorphins. If you don't have it, you don't need to come back. Half of the company will be mine, and we'll all go our separate ways."

So all that talk was just to ask this one question.

However, Du Jue had nothing to be angry about, and responded calmly, "Hmm, of course."

"Genius! Your method of becoming Wings of the World is infinitely more reliable than the Emerald Journey. I don't care how L Company went bankrupt, nor do I care about the technical details. I just want you to come back safely, OK?"

Snapped.

Hang up the communicator, stop without hesitation, and copy down Yuri and Huo Kexiao's message.

On the way, Du Jue looked at the compliant Huo Kexiao with a bit of a strange feeling. "I thought you were going to insist on reporting to the minister. We're going back to L Nest, after all."

However, Huo Kexiao gave a stiff smile. "The military tribunal also has members in L Nest, although only a few remain due to the Wailing Incident. They weren't prioritized because the Southern Camp of Vacuum Fist was eliminated by the Six Associations. Wen Duo, you know this better than I do."

"After absorbing former G Company employees, Vacuum Fist will head south again, especially to L Nest, which no longer has World Wings, because the minister is leading a large force there."

Hey!

This place has become a major whirlpool in Chengdu; everything wants to get involved.

Night has fallen over L Nest, now that the Wings of the World have been lost.

Surprisingly, the area around the platform was relatively orderly, considering that K Company had specifically deployed combat teams and drones nearby to protect its assets.

"This doesn't look like a back alley yet."

Yuri cautiously followed Du Jue, while Huo Kexiao brought up the rear, dejected.

Compared to the impression of a dilapidated slum in the back alley, this place is still full of high-rise buildings, but there are signs of vandalism everywhere, as well as gang members with obvious activities.

Perhaps it was the stylish windbreaker that Du Jue wore, emitting a faint reddish sheen, that caught their attention, as a group of people dressed in green were clearly looking over.

The burly man with a green floral headscarf whistled and sidled up to him with a grin, "Dude, you have good taste in art. L Nest is in such a mess, why are you here? And judging by the direction you came from, you even took the WRAP train."

Bang!

He was suddenly swept away and sent flying, causing Du Jue to take a step back warily.

What's going on? Is someone trying to assassinate me?

The next second, I relaxed when I saw the backlit figure, after all, the blood-red pupils were very special.

"Elena, what's wrong with you... um."

He was so careful that the other person would reach out and block his mouth the moment he opened it. He could even clearly feel one of his right canine teeth being pinched by the other person.

Just as Yuri was about to speak, she was anxiously stopped by Huo Kexiao, who was drenched in sweat.

Without a word, Huo Kexiao saw Du Jue's puzzled expression and immediately led You Li away to a distance.

Du Jue reached out and patted Elena's pale hand. He was so engrossed in patting her hand that he almost drooled. "Ugh... don't play with your teeth... I still need to bite the crust of the sandwich."

Click.

Hey!

Du Jue immediately felt the excruciating pain of his canine tooth being broken off, but he could completely tolerate this pain. "What... ugh?"

Then Du Jue saw that Elena had also twisted off her own sharp teeth.

Clutching the white jade-like Blood Demon Fang, Elena raised her hand and reached into Du Jue's mouth.

Another sharp pain shot through his gums, causing his face to twitch slightly; Du Jue guessed that she had forcibly pushed his teeth in.

Noticing that the other party was silent, Du Jue patiently waited for Elena to finish replacing her four canine teeth, as blood and saliva mixed together.

Looking at Du Jue's somewhat incongruous teeth, Elena finally spoke with satisfaction: "You must be thirsty after so long."

Just as Du Jue was about to say that he had already eaten, he saw the other person raise his wrist to his mouth. The veins on his fair skin were blue, just like those of a normal person, only more clearly visible, like those of a so-called blue-blooded aristocrat.

Feeling the four foreign objects in his mouth, he looked at Elena with a dismissive expression, wanting to say that he was not a blood demon and did not need to drink blood, but he saw her burning eyes.

Are you going to refuse me? No way.

Chapter 295 Fashion.

Du Jue felt again the intense, undisguised desire that Elena had when they met on the rooftop, a simple yet deeply moving wish to live.

He had never realized that a gaze could freeze a person in place; Elena's unwavering gaze made him abandon any thought of looking away.

[Angela: The proteins and other components in the blood require extra water during digestion, which can actually worsen dehydration.]

Ok?

Hearing this echo in his mind, Du Jue suddenly remembered that the other person was probably watching this place, but this reason was not enough to satisfy Elena.

"how?"

Elena pinched Du Jue's right cheek without any pity, and looked at the red mark that quickly appeared on his face with an innocent expression. "I washed my hands. Or are you saying you won't like me anymore if I don't see you for a while? We are best friends."

Du Jue didn't notice Elena pressing her wrist against his front teeth. The powerful blood flow unique to the Blood Demon could even make him feel the throbbing of his veins like a heartbeat. "Elena, if you're thirsty for blood, just say so. There's no need to joke around."

He raised his hand to remove the other person's slightly cold right hand, but Elena sneered and grabbed his wrist instead.

"I want you to drink it, I want to see it, is that not allowed?"

Elena's eyes flashed with bloodlust as she forcefully pulled Du Jue's hand to her neck. "I want to see you struggle and desperately bite open my veins with my teeth."

She gave a cryptic smile. "Although I resisted, I had no choice but to drink blood, which caused me annoyance and endurance, and even drove me mad with pain. Now, I actually find it quite cute, and I want to see what you look like, Du Jue."

What's so cute about that?

Moreover, allowing a normal person to drink the blood of a vampire is a bit against the natural order, isn't it?

Seeing Du Jue's troubled expression, Elena closed her eyes and whispered in his ear, "Please, just this once. Aren't we good friends anymore?"

"alright."

The only explanation is that the other party was just pent up during this time. After all, the Blood Demon's thirst for blood is uncontrollable, and not indiscriminately killing is already giving him a lot of face.

Despite the excruciating pain from his gums, Du Jue bit Elena's wrist with his four sharp teeth, and blood immediately stained his lips.

Even though the four sharp teeth pierced her skin, Elena didn't care at all, gazing at Du Jue with intoxication and greed.

A corner of a dimly lit street.

"Um, does our boss actually enjoy sucking blood?"

Yuri peeked over furtively, but was pulled back by Hokoshaw, whose entire body was tense and even partially insectized.

Seeing Yuri's bewildered expression, he had no choice but to explain, "I received intelligence from Vacuum Fist regarding the southern part of the city before. That woman is the reappearing City Star—Crimson Night."

"Didn't you see that the group of green-clad gang members who tried to approach us just now disappeared? Are you really the one who cleaned up the mess?"

Huo Kexiao pointed to the street where there had been no one since the beginning, and showed it to Youli.

The title "City Star," the highest level designation in the closing-up service, immediately made Yuri realize the seriousness of the situation. "Then, shouldn't we notify an association?"

"Don't say that!"

Huo Kexiao interrupted in a low voice, cautiously glancing at the green-turbaned giant hiding behind the garbage heap opposite him. This guy had just gotten up from the ground and even swallowed back the blood he was coughing up, not daring to make a sound.

"Obviously, Wendo knows her, so there's only one thing we need to do."

Yuri asked anxiously, "Run away?"

"Stay where you are."

Yuri dared not peek out again.

Seeing the blood flowing over most of the other person's palm, Du Jue quickly released his grip, and the four canine teeth were smoothly pulled out. This strange experience was truly a first for him.

"It seems you need to be properly instructed on your dining etiquette; you should lick up any blood that comes out."

Elena withdrew her hand with satisfaction, the blood on her skin flowing back into her veins.

Reaching out and pinching the sharp tooth that Elena had shoved into him, Du Jue couldn't help but complain, "Doing this in public is too weird. Maybe next time."

"Don't take it off! I'm giving you all my teeth, so remember to take good care of them."

Elena reached out and covered his mouth to force him to swallow the blood, then stepped back with a wicked grin. "My blood must taste really good, right?"

Du Jue wiped his mouth and hands with his windbreaker, finally noticing that the oppressive atmosphere around Elena had dissipated. "Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's hurry back to the company. It's time for me to make my mark!"
