It's a hell game, who can still be a human being?

Chapter 41 Helping in the Cooking
"How come you always end up like this?"

Looking at Liu Zheng who had lost weight again, Niu Ma was speechless.

"Of course it's because it's not strong enough. Could it be because I like it?"

Liu Zheng was speechless.

A full man does not know the hunger of a hungry man. It is a miracle that an ordinary person like him can survive to this day.

"I see you're having a good time. Huh?"

The cow and horse looked at his chest.

"You actually got the honorary owner medal?"

"Yeah, I took part in some rooftop bungee jumping challenge."

Liu Zheng replied.

"Well, that one is indeed suitable for you. If you can collect all five medals, you won't have to make yourself so miserable when delivering food in the future."

Niuma nodded.

"What happens if we gather all five?"

He took the opportunity to ask.

It just so happens that the system is vague in the item introduction.

"They won't refuse to accept you. The security guards won't stop you anymore. But it only applies to low-end and mid-end residential areas, not high-end residential areas like Yipin Tianshu."

Niuma shook his head.

Liu Zheng nodded, and his thought was similar to his.

"So how many medals have you collected?"

he asked.

"not a single one."

"why?"

Liu Zheng felt a little strange.

With Niu Ma's strength, even if he doesn't meet a professional counterpart like him, he should be able to make it through.

"I'm not afraid of rejection. If the security guard dares to stop me, I'll just punch him. I don't dare to mess with people in high-end residential areas, but this medal is useless."

Niuma said proudly.

So, this thing is useless to it.

"whispering sound."

Liu Zheng curled his lips.

"Besides, this thing has more benefits than just money. If you wear it, those who order food may ask you for help. If you're lucky, you can refuse. If you're unlucky, it will be more troublesome than refusing."

Niu Ma said again.

“I did encounter this.”

He told the story of helping the mini-man walk his dog.

"Hahaha!"

The cows and horses burst into laughter.

"That tree also has this day, hahahaha!"

It laughed so hard that its head almost fell off.

"But you are really brave. That dog is a well-known vicious dog in the city, and you dare to walk it."

"If I walk, I'll die. If I don't walk, I'll die too. So let's walk."

Liu Zheng shrugged.

"I really don't understand you. By the way, what did you exchange the box of Moutai and the tree for?"

Niuma asked curiously.

"I changed it to this one."

He took out his sick leave note.

"Dalego said that the Wolf Knight's brother, the Fire Mage, would be wandering around the city. I plan to use these three days of vacation to try to find him."

Liu Zheng expressed his plan.

"Fire Mage"

The cattle and horses looked fearful.

"I've never dealt with him, but I heard from Black Claw that his strength might be even higher than Oink's."

"That doesn't matter. He's better than me anyway."

He shrugged.

"You are quite self-aware. However, I do not recommend that you go to him, or even use this sick note."

Niuma said.

"why?"

"Do you remember the second rule for deliverymen?"

"Don't leave the lounge without getting the list."

Liu Zheng said quickly.

He remembered this fatal incident very clearly.

"That's right. Then think about it the other way around. What happens when you don't have to take orders?"

He thought for a few seconds and his expression changed slightly.

"Is it possible that we can't enter the lounge?"

"No."

The cows and horses shook their heads.

"You are not allowed to enter the Bloody Restaurant at all. Moreover, your status as a restaurant employee will be invalid during sick leave."

Liu Zheng's face changed drastically. "You figured it out, right? Without the protection of the restaurant and a place to stay, you might be able to try your luck during the day, but you'll be dead for sure at night."

Niuma said coldly.

He clutched the sick note tightly.

I originally thought it was a one-fifth holiday voucher, but it turned out to be a letter from the King of Hell.

"Is there no way to circumvent this?"

Liu Zheng asked unwillingly.

"It's not like there's no way."

“One, you can’t come into the restaurant as an employee, but you can come in as a customer.”

“Second, you can’t stay in a lounge, but you can stay in a hotel.”

Niuma said.

"Which of these two methods is better?"

he asked.

"Everything has its pros and cons. The restaurant is absolutely safe, but it's very expensive. You'll probably spend that little money in one day."

"Hotels are cheap, you can stay there for ten days or half a month. But they are full of good and bad people, and the safety is only slightly better than sleeping on the street."

Liu Zheng fell into deep thought.

First of all, the restaurant option is definitely ruled out.

After the incident with the sprinkler truck, he discovered that money can still be of great use in this world.

The casino has now blacklisted them, and he probably won’t have the chance to make big money for a long time.

Secondly, the hotel option is not a good idea.

Newbie NPCs like Plane Tree and Ox Horse are full of bad intentions, and the advanced NPCs in the inn will be even more vicious.

Without the bonus of the legendary vest and the identity of a restaurant employee, if he went in rashly, he would be like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth.

"You'd better make a decision soon. I'm going on vacation in a few days, and you won't be able to take time off even if you want to."

Niuma said.

There was only one delivery man left, and Si Xue obviously would not approve leave for Liu Zheng.

And it is impossible for Niu Ma to postpone his vacation plans for him.

While he was thinking, Niu Ma's phone suddenly rang.

It glanced at the number and its expression immediately became serious.

"Boss, what are your orders?"

Niuma said respectfully.

"Okay, okay, how many people do you want?"

"Okay, okay, I'll explain the rules to the newcomers."

The cattle and horses responded one after another.

After a few words, it hung up the phone.

"I don't know whether you are lucky or not."

Niuma sighed.

"what happened?"

"There are problems with the goods from the same batch as Maotai. Several kitchen employees were hospitalized. The boss asked the two of us to help in the kitchen."

Niuma said.

"I'll help you if you can."

Liu Zheng said indifferently.

I've been delivering takeout for so long, so what's wrong with helping out in the kitchen?
What’s more, we are going with cattle and horses.

"Haha, have you forgotten the sound you heard when you first arrived?"

The cows and horses sneered.

He frowned and heard the woman's screams in his ears.

"You can't even hear the sound, how can you bear it when you see the real person?"

"I can tell you that I can protect you even if you cause trouble in a traffic jam. But if you break the rules in the kitchen, I will kill you first."

Niuma looked at him straight and said.

Its expression returned to the same as when it kicked him away for the first time, fierce and distorted.

It was as if their friendly cooperation over the past few days was just an illusion.

"Boss, don't you know me? I value my life the most."

Liu Zheng was silent for a moment and then smiled.

"Well, you better be. Let's go."

The cattle and horses stood up.

He followed Niuma out of the lounge, passed the three-way intersection, and finally came to the blue curtain.

"I'm reminding you again, no matter what you see, just pretend you didn't see it. You come to the restaurant to work, not to be a hero."

"Even if you want to die, die far away and don't implicate me."

Niuma turned around and said.

"I am awake now."

Liu Zheng smiled.

The cows and horses stared at him intently for a few seconds, then finally turned their heads away.

The door curtain was lifted, and a man, a cow and a horse entered the deep darkness.
