Du Jue rubbed his sore eyes and realized he needed to consider clearing all these people out. He couldn't let so many people stay here waiting for the gang to come knocking; gangs don't have the concept of innocent people.
"Then I'll take it and ask Finn to teach me how to fight. In the future, I want to become a powerful finisher to repay Brother Dujue!"
"Bring it to you."
First of all, Du Jue meant no harm to Finn. Secondly, wouldn't it be a waste of money to learn combat from Finn?!
With his hands behind his back, Pianjiang walked up to Dujue and immediately coaxed Olivia to the side to carve wood. Then he gestured for Pianjiang to sit down and talk slowly.
“Brother, you should be fine since you received the full treatment from the regeneration injections, but you just showed signs of sudden muscle weakness. Perhaps this is a psychological issue.”
These words made Ai, who had come closer, suddenly look up.
"This guy has psychological problems? Haven't you seen how he walks with such swagger all day? He just took down a bunch of blue-skinned thugs without even blinking an eye."
"Impossible! What's wrong with me?!"
"Look, they get furious at the slightest thing you say, they're practically driving people to the point of having psychological problems."
Du Jue frowned, still wanting to argue, when he felt Pianjiang's slightly cool palm touch his right cheek, as if a gentle, warm ice pack had calmed him down.
He looked at the calm-faced Katae and immediately asked him to explain.
"Anxiety, depression, or psychological trauma can all manifest in the body in severe cases, leading to abnormalities."
"Thank you, brother, for all you've done to protect me."
Looking around at the people, Pianjiang awkwardly tucked her long hair behind her ear and shyly pressed her forehead against Du Jue's hand on the sofa, giving Du Jue the illusion that there was a big cat crouching in front of the sofa.
"Thank me for what? Can't you move your own hands and feet? Why do you need someone to protect you?"
He stood there with his arms crossed, shaking his leg and complaining. He got angry when he saw Pianjiang acting pitiful, but Dujue interrupted him by raising his hand.
"Alright, the Ring has spotted us here. Go see if there's anywhere we can lay low for a while."
"Could it be trouble caused by the last request?"
"Yeah, I killed the Ring Master, that guy Wim."
The moment he finished speaking, the entire room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Olivia and Katae both felt relieved. After all, even children in the city knew the name and power of Five Fingers, and it was unbelievable that Du Jue could even deal with such an enemy.
Those cyborgs who understood Wim's strength were even more shocked. How could Du Jue have done something so explosive without making a sound?!
"Damn it! Why didn't you tell us? What are you standing there for? Pack your things!"
"Are you out of your mind? If we really make enemies with the Ring Fingers, we're doomed!"
The two caregivers carrying boxes froze on the spot as soon as they entered the room; the place where they were happily receiving their wages had suddenly turned into a dangerous den of monsters.
"Didn't I already tell you?"
“Let’s take the child back to the nursery. We can clean it up and still live there. Besides, it was donated to my church before, and now that the church is gone, we can take it back.”
"Yes, yes, I'll go get the children right away!"
The entire building erupted into chaos.
"Hey, please send everyone over in batches. You can stay there during this time too."
"how about you?"
"If I move there, what's the point of you moving there?"
"No! All three of us will stay and help you!"
The person behind her seemed to want to say something but hesitated, yet she didn't forget to bring the two of them along in this situation.
"What are you going to do here? I'm going to plant explosives here and bury you all together."
Du Jue shrugged indifferently, waved for Ai to leave quickly, not giving the other party a chance to object, and turned to go into the room to rest.
After he took a short rest, the place was completely empty.
Du Jue closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and decided that for the next period of time he would mainly be active as Wen Duo, the person in charge of closing things up. It was also time for him to take a step further in the association.
Elena, are you there?
"I am listening."

Chapter 87 Soaring.
Du Jue looked up and saw the capable young woman standing by the window. Elena waved to him with an enigmatic smile on her lips.
"Have you been following me the whole time?"
"How could that be? You run around like a rat, while I still need to eat. Usually, if I lose you, I come back here."
"Aren't you recovered yet?"
"Please, I almost died from those cleanup crews. If I could recover so easily, I wouldn't be pretending to be a stray cat here anymore."
It's a real shame; if Elena had been included, his K-nest operation would have been much more successful.
"By the way, I wanted to ask if you have any tips on how to get into the nest, preferably without anyone noticing."
Upon hearing this, Du Jue immediately perked up and sat up. After all, she was a city star who had wreaked havoc in the city, so infiltrating a nest should be easy for her.
However, Elena paid no attention. She simply watched Du Jue quietly, his long, well-proportioned limbs making him look like a limited-edition, exquisite doll displayed in a high-end shop window.
"You have too many questions."
"Moreover, you're making me feel like I'm just being used as a tool. Although I'm a bit weak now, no one has the right to boss me around. I only live according to my own will."
As night fell, Elena turned off the lights in her room, leaving only the moonlight behind her.
Du Jue suddenly felt a little nervous and confused. Was this guy going to ask for money like Ai?
No! This guy definitely wants to suck blood again. This made Du Jue breathe a sigh of relief. He decided to treat it as a voluntary blood donation for the sake of urban peace.
But when Du Jue looked up, he was surprised to see Elena's face very close to his. She was touching her chin and looking at him with interest. Du Jue immediately understood and prepared to lift his clothes.
"But you are qualified because we are very, very good friends."
"But why are you taking off your clothes?"
Avoid stopping what you're doing without feeling awkward; instead, offer a polite smile.
"A little hot."
"Then you come with me."
Before Du Jue could agree, Elena grabbed his arm and ran to the rooftop. Du Jue, panting heavily, didn't have time to continue asking questions.
Do not let Elena push you to stand on the water tower on the roof.
"What are you going to do? I'm having a bit of a phobia of roofs now."
The previous gun attack by the suicide squad almost blew his head off.
"I'll take you to relax. From now on, you must stay close to me."
Elena bared her sharp teeth at Du Jue, then leaped and landed skillfully on the other side of the roof.
Even if it seems a bit inexplicable, Dujue has no choice but to follow suit.
The two of them leaped swiftly across the top of the high-rise building, leaving the dense crowds and neon-lit shops below beneath their feet.
The once dangerous territory could be easily traversed simply by changing the altitude. Now, Du Jue somewhat understands the joy of birds flying freely. For them, there is only one way to overcome all difficulties and dangers: to flap their wings and soar.
Unfortunately, humans are not entitled to soar.
"Look!"
Du Jue immediately snapped back to reality and stopped at the edge of the roof. Looking down, he saw a group of people surrounding a bathtub filled with blood, and the leader was still dissecting the corpses soaking in the tub.
Suddenly, a soft touch brushed against her right cheek, and Elena nestled close to him, whispering an explanation.
"These are a bunch of crazy rats who think they can gain power and good luck by using some weird blood sacrifice methods. They really enjoy kidnapping and killing passersby."
Bang!
Elena threw a flowerpot into the bathtub, splashing blood all over the ceremony officiant, who then cursed angrily.
"Why don't you give it a try?"
Du Jue watched as Elena carried the flowerpot from the rooftop to his hands, hesitated for a moment, and then threw it down forcefully.
Bang!
The bathtub was smashed instantly, the body floated to the surface in the blood, and the blood sank down the cracks in the ground.
The mice below immediately clutched their heads and screamed as if it were the end of the world, then ran away.
Once he stopped looking up, Elena immediately pulled him along to continue flying over the city.
call out!
Elena ripped the dried leaves off the wooden frame and crushed them with her foot. Du Jue, who was standing next to her, was curious about what they were and why the whole roof was covered in them.
"Addictive plants, they like to dry them and then brew endorphins, which is called tea in slang. Look, there are quite a few varieties here."
Large, meticulously crafted leaves were torn into pieces like toys in a short time, and Elena broke the water tower to flush them all into the sewers, creating a water curtain on the staircase inside the building.
Du Jue kicked the thug who had caught up back, and the terrified man who kept retreating took down the four people behind him, who all screamed and tumbled down the stairs.
Before more people could emerge from inside, the two quickly retreated, leaving behind a mess on the ground.
"Look, there's nothing to worry about, because they can't reach us."
After just half an hour with Elena, Du Jue fell in love with the experience of causing chaos for others without any psychological burden, and felt that no troubles were worthy of his attention.
"Can you swim?"
"what?"
Just as Du Jue regained his footing, Elena pulled him forward, causing him to lose his balance and fall into the clear outdoor swimming pool. The moment he sank to the surface, the world went quiet, leaving only the soothing noise of the water thumping against his eardrums.
He instinctively tried to struggle to get up, but Elena, who jumped into the water behind him, pulled him down to the bottom of the pool, where he was caught off guard and began to experience oxygen deprivation.
Before Du Jue could push Elena away, she forcibly dragged him down. Du Jue immediately stared wide-eyed at Elena below.
The moon was dim in the night.
Du Jue could only vaguely make out the black hair that seemed to float in the water, the curled ends of the hair resembling an elf clinging to her. However, when paired with Elena's bright red eyes, which were almost eerie, it gave off a subtle feeling of Medusa's snake hair.
For a moment, they even forgot about the lack of oxygen.
When he started blowing bubbles, Du Jue realized that Elena seemed to be saying something as she opened and closed her mouth.
"what?"
He immediately inhaled a large mouthful of pool water, choked violently, and quickly floated to the surface. He gagged a few times on the shore before he could recover.
Elena leaned on the bank with her elbows, gazing down at the undulating water.
"I believe in you; you are definitely qualified to be at the top of the city."
"Really? It seems you're more confident than I am about this."
Du Jue washed his face with the pool water and followed Elena's gaze. The pool water gradually calmed down and reflected the city starry sky again. The two of them looked at the surface of the water and then silently dissolved into it.
"Qualifications are merely a measure of trust; the level of a close contact, professional certificates, and credentials are just reasons for others to trust you."
"So I think you're qualified to do anything because I trust you."
After a long silence, he finally opened his mouth and sneezed.
"I feel a bit cold now."
Elena couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Building.
As he drove back with the other two cyborgs, he looked at the empty room and couldn't help but ask a question.
"How can we eliminate people?"
