Insomnia

After experiencing the kitchen under the guise of an apprentice, and with Wendy's explanation, Luo Di has a basic understanding of the nature and operating model of the Nameless Orphanage.

60% of the city's orphans (under three years old) and newborns are sent here, and there are even children born directly inside the Orphanage.

These orphans received special assassin training from a young age.

Their understanding of the world and human nature was completely confined within the Orphanage.

The ultimate goal is to cultivate a true killer who can uphold the fundamentals of humanity and avoid developing Mind Corner under such high pressure, but so far this has not been achieved.

Even if it doesn't achieve its ultimate goal, the Orphanage is still of great value.

Orphans raised in this environment possess extraordinary physical qualities. Even if they develop "Mind Corner," they will likely transform into special, alien Pseudo-Human beings. The pituitary glands residing in their brains are of exceptional value.

Those Pseudo-Human who manage to survive until the age of fifteen and undergo a transformation during the ritual will be labeled as "murderers".

These killers are both vessels for cultivating high-quality pituitary glands and the organization's fighting force.

As long as they can serve the organization, they will not be executed for the time being.

Once their problems are discovered, whether they are suspected of needing to be separated from their organization or engaging in acts of betrayal, they will immediately be subjected to "egg extraction." In severe cases, a bomb planted within their consciousness will detonate directly.

Wendy is a notorious serial killer within the organization, codenamed "Head Clown".

It got its name from its clown costume and its penchant for beheading.

The "skills" Wendy uses to kill and fight are skills she learned in the Orphanage, having undergone various combat training since she was about three years old.

According to her, for an orphan to grow up to the crucial age of 15, they would need to eliminate about a hundred peers during that period.

Every serial killer in these organizations rose to power by stepping over the corpses of others, and each possessed solid fundamental skills and unique killing techniques. The values ingrained in their minds were fixed and unchangeable; their nature had long since departed from humanity, becoming a tamed, bloodthirsty beast.

Staff Dormitory

"Master... can I take a shower? I haven't cleaned my body since I was reborn, and there's no running water in the basement of my rented apartment. I use takeout cola to wash my face and rinse my mouth, and then use that to flush the toilet."

Although I love drinking Coke, I have to use it to flush the water so the basement doesn't smell too bad, lest you complain.

Luo Di recalled that he did smell a Coke scent when he went to the basement this morning.

"Go wash up."

"Thank you, Master."

Wendy ripped off her disguise hood and began to undress.

Because its Phobia-concretization in balloons, it not only provides camouflage but also allows the body to be repaired through the balloon membrane, making the stitches from the Hell Torture Chamber virtually invisible.

Her body, emaciated from the torment, has returned to a normal body fat percentage, making her look exactly like a seventeen-year-old Girl, while also showing very obvious signs of exercise.

As she said, the body does indeed need to be cleaned.

The fallen scars, the Hell Ash, and her own sweat gave her a strange smell.

Wendy had just stepped into the bathroom when a head suddenly popped out again.

Beneath his golden, slightly sticky hair, amber eyes were fixed on Luo Di on the bed.

"Master, this place is quite big. Would you like to take a bath with me?"

I've not only learned how to kill, but I've also specifically learned how to serve others here... Some special targets are difficult to kill normally; the only way is to create an opportunity for them to relax beforehand.

"No."

Luo Di's words were tinged with displeasure, which frightened Wendy so much that she broke out in a cold sweat. She immediately erased the topic of bathing together from her mind and never dared to push her luck again.

In the bathroom.

Wendy looked at her thinner reflection in the mirror, a stark contrast to her former incredibly obese state.

"Mr. Di should prefer this kind of figure. Anyway, he won't live much longer, so he should control his diet during this time. He just needs to have a big meal before he dies."

La la la~ I am simply the happiest person in the world.

I thought leaving everything to Mr. Di to investigate would be enough, but I never expected him to be resurrected and personally involved.

Hot water shower

Wendy has an extremely rich imagination. She can imagine the hot water washing over her body as being touched by Luo Di, and in the process she will tremble or even spasm. She will then cover her head with a balloon to block out the sound so as not to disturb her master's rest.

Half an hour passed without us even realizing it.

Wendy was so excited that she knelt on the floor, and then she suddenly realized that she had been taking too long in the shower.

In the past, bath time in the Orphanage was earned through fighting, and even if you won the day's championship, you would only get a maximum of five minutes of hot water bath.

Looking at the bracelet that had already been open for half an hour, she was prepared to be punished.

She opened the bathroom door before she was completely dry, and didn't even dare to go out. Instead, she lay on the floor like a pet and slowly crawled out.

As soon as he climbed out of the bathroom door, he heard Luo Di's questioning voice:

"What are you doing?"

"I... I shouldn't have taken so long to shower."

Did I tell you not to take this long to shower?

Luo Di's questioning threw Wendy into a panic again, leaving her unsure of what to do, but the next second, another instruction came:

"Get dressed and go to your bed. I have some questions for you."

"Oh... okay."

Wendy quickly put on her staff uniform and sat cross-legged on the opposite bed with an obedient expression. "Master, please ask!"

"We need to wait here for the so-called 'Venerable One' to arrive, right?"

"Yes, the Venerable One is the core of the organization. As long as we can kill him and control him, we can uproot the organization. The entire behind-the-scenes team will also be exposed. I will do my best to assist you, Master."

"How long will it take?"

"Hmm? Based on my past experience, a new murderer who turns fifteen is born roughly every 3 to 6 months."

So... if you're unlucky, you might have to wait six months. If you're lucky, you might only have to wait a few days.

"It's been too long."

"Waiting is the safest approach, and it also allows the owner to gradually become familiar with the entire Orphanage."

If the owner doesn't want to wait, they can take risky and extreme measures, such as causing a high-profile death within the Orphanage.

If the killer cannot be found within the Orphanage and the death toll continues to rise, the organization will inevitably send someone over.

As things gradually escalated,

Ultimately, this will inevitably disturb the Venerable One.

"Hmm..." Luo Di rubbed his chin. "How about this, tomorrow you try to sneak into the archives, check the personal information of these orphans, and determine the waiting time we need to wait."

If it takes a long time, choose the second method.

Upon hearing that Luo Di had actually adopted her suggestion, Wendy was extremely excited and flashed a wide, toothy grin. "Great!"

Luo Di was also concerned about something else, "By the way, if the person in charge of the cold chain delivery doesn't come here the next day, will it arouse suspicion from the Orphanage?"

"You can rest assured, Master. Many people go missing in Moon City every day, not to mention those who work in the cold storage area and deal with meat every day."

Some Pseudo-Human, who would reveal their true nature at the mere smell of flesh, are likely to attack them, and disappearances are common occurrences.

The organization won't waste resources investigating such marginalized individuals; replacing them directly is much faster. After all, while Moon City may lack many things, it certainly doesn't lack workers.

"Okay, let's go to sleep."

"Oh."

It's only 10 PM now, which is the most exciting time for Luo Di, who has his days and nights reversed. But considering that he needs to get up early tomorrow to pretend to be an apprentice, he can only force himself to sleep.

Let's start with a thousand One-finger Push-up as a foundation.

Luo Di also subconsciously kept quiet, trying his best not to disturb Wendy. This was part of his moral upbringing, and it wouldn't change just because the other person was an utterly wicked person.

Although she didn't make a sound, Wendy still couldn't sleep.

As a serial killer, she also likes to hunt at night. Not to mention that this is the first time she has shared a room with Luo Di, and he is doing push-ups right next to the bed. Just one look at him makes her feel hot all over.

After a thousand push-ups, Luo Di didn't sweat much, but Wendy was covered in sweat.

But,

Luo Di, still unable to sleep, lay in bed with his eyes wide open. He was experiencing the discomfort of insomnia for the first time. Perhaps it was the smell of Wendy's sweat that prompted him to speak:

"If you're hot, you don't have to cover yourself with a blanket."

"Oh... okay."

"Besides working for this organization, haven't you received any invitations from other organizations?"

Seeing that Mr. Di had taken the initiative to chat, Wendy quickly seized the opportunity. "No, Mr. Di, do you think there are any organizations that would be suitable for me?"

"Your strength might catch the eye of a Pseudo-Human- organization called the Sisterhood, perhaps because their activities don't extend to Moon City."

By the way, are there any monster incarnations within organizations associated with Orphanage?

"Monster incarnation? No, at least I've never seen one or heard of one."

The organization's actual controller is the Venerable One, who possesses an extremely strong desire for control. He will not allow something so uncontrollable and dangerous to emerge, and it would also easily attract investigators from the capital.

"Um."

Luo Di stopped chatting, seeing that the awkward and sleepless atmosphere was about to return.

Wendy mustered her courage and asked the question:

"Master, we are all nocturnal animals... it's hard to fall asleep without exhausting our energy. How about I practice with you? With your talent, you should be able to learn these killing techniques quickly."

Seemingly realizing she had misspoke, Wendy quickly waved her hands and corrected herself. "No, no, no~ Master doesn't need to learn such low-level skills at all. I just wanted to... I'm sorry. Master, please punish me as you see fit, even killing me is fine."

"Bring it on."

When Wendy looked over again, Luo Di had already gotten up and started stretching his muscles.

"Master, are you going to punish me or...?"

"Spar with me."

"Good!"
