It was afternoon.
Tokyo—Shinjuku District.
After dealing with the matter in Arakawa District,
Xi Shenlian began wandering around aimlessly.
He no longer restricted his activities to Arakawa District.
His first stop was Shinjuku District, one of the bustling areas where bars, nightclubs, dance halls, and the like were most concentrated!
Xi Shenlian remembered that in his previous world, Tokyo City had been divided into twenty-three districts.
But in this world,
Tokyo City was divided into sixty-five districts.
The total population of the Tokyo metropolitan area, centered around Tokyo City, was approximately 220 million.
That accounted for one-third of Dongying's entire population.
Of the remaining two-thirds,
half were concentrated in the Kyoto metropolitan area, centered around Kyoto.
The rest were scattered throughout the other regions of Dongying, forming the less prosperous ordinary districts and rural areas.
Thus,
it was no exaggeration to say
that Tokyo City and Kyoto City represented the present and past of all Dongying.
One was an emerging metropolis, located relatively close to the sea and leaning more toward modernization.
The other was an ancient capital with a history spanning tens of thousands of years, located farther inland and possessing a more historically traditional appearance.
Since Tokyo City covered such a vast area in this world,
even while riding a high-speed train traveling at over five hundred kilometers per hour,
Xi Shenlian still spent several hours traveling from Arakawa District to Shinjuku District.
The moment he stepped off the high-speed train,
he looked at the endless stream of people, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
Compared to the unremarkable Arakawa District,
this place undoubtedly fit his definition of pleasure far better.
It was also at this moment
that he casually used today's Mood Value Lottery opportunity.
Before long,
a purple card appeared in his hand.
Extra Talent Card—Genetic Information Circulation Control.
Effect: Allows the user to freely control the circulation of various genetic information within their body. In other words, unless permitted by the user, outsiders cannot obtain any of the user's genetic information through any means, including but not limited to hair samples, bodily fluid samples, blood samples, bone samples...
"?"
After spending two seconds understanding what it meant,
Xi Shenlian finally grasped its general function.
In other words, once he used this Extra Talent, unless he permitted it, even if outsiders obtained his blood or other bodily materials, they would be unable to acquire his DNA or any physiological data. They would only obtain useless garbled information or false results supplied by him, making him completely immune to methods such as cloning and bloodline curses.
Of course, the item's actual uses were definitely not limited to that.
For example, while Xi Shenlian was holding it, he instinctively looked toward a large electronic screen not far away.
It was displaying a general map of the entire Shinjuku District and its transportation network.
And on it,
among the many areas,
one place appeared especially conspicuous.
Kabukicho!
The moment he saw that thought-provoking place name, then looked at the item in his hand, Xi Shenlian instantly understood its wondrous use.
"Damn it!!"
"Isn't this making me commit a mistake??"
For a moment,
his fists clenched!!
Then,
he used the Extra Talent Card—Genetic Information Circulation Control.
He had no choice.
Xi Shenlian was a thrifty man.
He simply couldn't stand wasting resources!
After that, he exited the subway station and hailed a taxi.
The driver was a young man with a somewhat weathered complexion.
Young meant that he was around twenty years old.
Weathered meant that his face looked as if he did it twenty times every day, carrying an expression of complete hopelessness.
Just looking at him made one want to silently shake their head.
"Where to, kid?"
That was the driver's question.
Cold and utterly devoid of emotion!
Xi Shenlian's answer was ten banknotes worth ten thousand yuan each.
Their existence was like a miracle cure.
The driver's murky eyes instantly burst with brilliant light.
He revived.
It was as if someone had cast a resurrection spell on him, bringing him back to life in the blink of an eye.
He was immediately liberated from his hopelessness!
Only then did Xi Shenlian speak with righteous composure:
"Take me to the best area in Kabukicho."
"I'm going there to criticize the filth and depravity of modern society!"
Upon hearing this,
the driver gave a wicked smile:
"Don't worry. I'll definitely satisfy you."
--
Not long afterward,
amid the rushing journey,
Xi Shenlian arrived at his destination.
When he got out of the taxi,
he saw a world of neon lights and wine!
He saw bustling traffic!
He saw the lights of countless homes!
He saw slender, graceful ladies!
He saw fiery enthusiasm!
Yet none of these things had anything to do with Xi Shenlian.
All he felt was a trace of confusion.
Malede Gobi, so which shop can actually get down to business?
Yes.
At present,
he didn't really care about the neon lights, wine, and flourishing prosperity.
He just wanted something direct.
But having never been here before, he temporarily had no idea where to start.
However,
Xi Shenlian's cool and handsome appearance was plain for all to see.
Besides,
the right things
often brought the right people together.
It was like gravity.
Gravity linked the two together!
Thus,
when he was feeling somewhat puzzled,
his presence was like a radiant sun, automatically attracting countless gazes,
and the right person soon appeared.
She was a mature and beautiful woman dressed in a high-end black kimono and wooden clogs.
After examining Xi Shenlian a few times with a smile that revealed no teeth, she pointed toward a shop that looked quite upscale and invited him:
"Handsome, want to come in and have some fun?"
"Our shop has plenty of beautiful women and special services~"
Two short sentences
and that meaningful gaze
directly won Xi Shenlian over.
"Let's go!!"
--
A few minutes later,
Xi Shenlian was tapping away at the selection screen on a tablet computer.
The woman was somewhat puzzled.
Why is he choosing people who don't look very good?
This guy doesn't look short on money...
As a highly capable salesperson, the woman had great confidence in her judgment.
Xi Shenlian was obviously a super VIP customer!
His looks were also exceptionally good. He was the kind of man who, even after making a mistake, would only make others feel that they were the ones taking advantage.
If she hadn't already changed careers, she would have wanted to take the job herself.
Then, the puzzled woman heard Xi Shenlian say:
"Other than the ones I've selected, I want all the rest!"
On the tablet, the quantity displayed as 17/82.
"?"
"By the way, do you take clients yourself?"
The woman pondered for one second.
"...I do!"
And so, Xi Shenlian disappeared in this evil, terrifying, frightening, corrupting, capitalist-flavored dangerous place.
He disappeared for ten whole days and ten nights!!
It had to be said.
That was truly worrying!!! (terrified face.jpg)
