"Stop!"

Liu Zheng looked at the blue flame fist and shouted.

Of course, Red Pig, who fell into madness, would not listen to him, and the flaming fist continued downwards.

According to Cow-Horse's suggestion, it's time to switch to Nightingale and the others at this time.

But Liu Zheng looks at this posture, Red Pig's gentlemanly demeanor should have been burned out along with his sanity.

However, he didn't have any other options.

"Do you still want to know the whereabouts of Chihaya?"

Liu Zheng said.

"Huh?"

Yan Fist stopped in front of him.

Even though there was no contact, Liu Zheng's body fluids had already begun to freeze.

"Tell me, Cow-Horse, where did you hide Chihaya?"

Red Pig asked coldly.

"You can't even tell that I'm not Cow-Horse. Even if Chihaya comes in front of you, can you still recognize her?"

He sneered.

"Of course, no matter what Chihaya looks like, I will still recognize her."

Red Pig said without hesitation.

"Then tell me what she looks like."

Liu Zheng said.

"She has smooth and long black hair, but she is too lazy to take care of it, so she often puts it into a big braid."

"Her face is oval-shaped, with a little freckles on her cheeks. She has always felt unattractive, but I think she is very cute."

"Her eyebrows are dark and thick, thicker than men's. So she has always been very proud and doesn't need to draw her eyebrows."

"Her"

Red Pig kept describing Chihaya's appearance, and also mixed in many details about the two people's relationship, and his expression gradually calmed down.

"You are much smarter than Cow-Horse."

Red Pig stopped talking and looked at Liu Zheng with a faint smile.

"If it was as smart as you, it wouldn't be beaten by me again."

"It's not that I'm smarter than Cow-Horse, maybe it's just that it doesn't want to use such tricks on you."

He shook his head.

"Maybe. Young man, my name is Krupp, what is your name?"

Red Pig said suddenly.

"My name is Liu Zheng."

"Liu Zheng, are you willing to make a deal with me?"

Red Pig asked.

"You said."

"Help me get the truth from Cow-Horse."

"Have you ever thought that it was just because Chihaya didn't want you to know the truth that Cow-Horse didn't tell you."

Liu Zheng said.

"Then I also need to know. After getting together with Chihaya, I listen to her on everything. It's time for me to be willful this time."

Red Pig said firmly.

"Okay, I can help you investigate, but I don't make any guarantees."

"I will not receive any compensation for this, so there is no transactional relationship and no commitment between us."

he said.

"You are really cautious, young man."

Red Pig smiled.

"There is no way, it's too difficult to survive in Metropolis."

Liu Zheng shrugged.

"Indeed. But I will still give you something. It has nothing to do with the commission. Just treat it as a gift in return for B-Rank Grave-Sweeping Package."

Red Pig glanced at the three Nightingale and said with a smile.

"That's okay."

The B-level package should not be considered a necessary expense, and it is appropriate to receive some rewards in return.

Red Pig took off his sunglasses, revealing a pair of big and round eyes.

He threw the sunglasses to Liu Zheng, who caught them.

"The real sunglasses have been destroyed. These are just fakes made of my soul fragments, but they should be of some use."

Red Pig said.

"Name: Pilot Sunglasses (one-time)"

"Type: prop"

"Quality: Excellent"

"Effect 1: After use, you can see a weakness of the enemy. Effect 2 cannot be used at the same time."

"Effect 2: After use, it can ignore all damage, negative effects and rationality caused by vision, lasting for 30 seconds. It cannot be used at the same time as Effect 1."

"Remarks: Ace pilot Red Pig's wife Chihaya personally made sunglasses for him. Unfortunately, Chihaya has left Red Pig, and pilot Ace can no longer fly in the sky."

"Can copies be taken out: No"

A very good auxiliary prop, both effect one and effect two are very practical.

Just

Liu Zheng looked at the notes and sighed secretly.

In fact, he had already vaguely sensed the truth without asking Cow-Horse.

He could even guess the hidden reason why Red Pig wanted to know the truth so much.

Liu Zheng doesn't know whether to complete Red Pig's commission.

Therefore, he decided to tell Cow-Horse everything that happened when he went back and let him judge for himself.

After all, it is Red Pig's most trusted friend.

"Goodbye, when you see Cow-Horse, give it a punch for me."

Red Pig took away the B-level set meal and returned to the tomb.

Liu Zheng is still very willing to help with the request of punching Cow-Horse, but it's a pity that he can't help.

"Come on, let's sign for the takeaway first."

He took out the French fries and handed them to Nightingale.

"By the way, don't order potato-related dishes in the future, otherwise you may get into trouble."

He remembered the note about French fries and reminded him.

"Don't worry, we don't really like potatoes. Of course we will order something else if we have money."

Nightingale said.

"That's fine. By the way, when do you plan to go to Garbage Processing Plant?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"At least it will have to wait until I become the sole heir. Now go to Garbage Processing Plant and die."

Nightingale shook his head and said.

"Is that place really that dangerous?"

he asked curiously.

Sewer and Cemetery Nightingale dare to come here casually. The level of Garbage Processing Plant should be similar to these two places.

"It's very dangerous. It's the most chaotic place in Metropolis."

Nightingale said.

"Whether it is New District, Old District, Sewer, Cemetery or even Bloodstained Restaurant, all must abide by the regulations of the City Hall. Even areas outside Metropolis will proceed in a certain order."

"But Garbage Processing Plant is different. Except for the special regulations of the City Hall, everything depends on strength."

"Isn't it also a kind of order to respect strength?"

Liu Zheng asked.

Originally, City Hall asked everyone to abide by its rules because it was the strongest.

"But what if the strongest person is a madman?"

Nightingale asked rhetorically.

"This"

"What's more terrifying, is this person's personality changing every minute?"

Nightingale asked again.

Then there is no other way. No one can survive in the hands of such a person unless he is stronger than this person.

"So Garbage Processing Plant's strongest person is this kind of person?"

"I don't know, no one knows who the strongest person in Garbage Processing Plant is. But Garbage Processing Plant is full of people like this."

"It was originally used to deal with those places where disorder or violation exists. Do you think these chaotic residues will ferment something."

Nightingale said.

"Sounds pretty scary."

Liu Zheng said sincerely.

Even bad order is better than no order, just as lawful evil is better than chaotic evil.

"It's very scary, especially since City Hall almost left Garbage Processing Plant alone, causing many beings walking on the edge of order to go there."

"Some achieved their goals and returned to the city, while others stayed there forever, died or turned into something more terrifying."

Nightingale deliberately said in a tone of telling a ghost story.

"Then you still want to go?"

"I can't help it. Who asked me to pamper her?"

Nightingale pinched Sea Woman's face, but the latter slapped it away in disgust.

"Besides, there are a lot of good things in Garbage Processing Plant. For example, there are a lot of things there that can disrupt order."

She gave Liu Zheng a look that you know.

"If I want to go from being the sole heir to becoming the leader of the family, I really need something like this."

Nightingale said.

"Then I wish you success and become the leader of the clan as soon as possible."

"You don't want to go? Whether you want to break away from Bloodstained Restaurant or want to climb up, following the rules will not work."

Nightingale said.

"If I want to go, I have to wait until I find Fire Mage."

Liu Zheng said.

If you don't communicate with Fire Mage first, it will be of no use even if you find Wolf Knight.

If we start a fight, if we lose, we will go for nothing, if we win, we will be chased by Fire Mage, no matter what, we will lose.

"Fire Mage, I've heard of this person."

Nightingale thought for a while and said.

"Oh? Do you have any information?"

Liu Zheng is interested.

"Let's talk while we walk. I don't care. They don't seem to want to stay for a long time."

Nightingale suggested.

He looked over. Sea Woman and Vampire Girl looked really impatient.

"Then let's go."

The four of them walked towards the Cemetery gate.

"I don't have much information about Fire Mage. I only know that he is very powerful and has a high level of citizenship, but he just doesn't like working and likes to wander around."

"Moreover, this person is very impulsive. Once he accidentally entered a family's secret club and bumped into a banquet being held there. In a rage, he killed everyone present including Kill Them All who was enjoying it, and then burned the place to ashes."

"This matter caused a big fuss, because among the people present there was a Councillor and a deputy director. City Hall also dispatched Public Security Bureau's Special Operations Team for this purpose."

Nightingale Continue the topic just now.

"Then what?"

"However, Fire Mage hid, and no one saw him again. Many people speculated that he should have hid in Garbage Processing Plant."

Nightingale said.

Nightingale's information came very timely.

If her information is correct, then Fire Mage should have come out from Garbage Processing Plant.

The reason why Fire Mage appears in Sewer is probably because it is inconvenient to appear on the street after being chased by the City Hall.

In this case, Liu Zheng's original plan of wandering around the city streets and encountering him would be almost impossible to succeed.

In this case, it seems that he still has to go to Sewer.

On the one hand, it is to find Shelter and give the milk to Red Ghost.

On the one hand, it was to try my luck and see if I could meet Fire Mage again.

But now I don't know whether Sewer's anger has calmed down. Fisherman's old friend hasn't called yet.

Liu Zheng Just as I was thinking about it, the phone suddenly came to mind.

When I picked it up and took a look, it was really Fisherman.

"Gan, these guys don't all have the magical power of 'knowing my name when they say it', right?"

He answered the phone with some trepidation.

"Sewer’s Egg is put back and it doesn't get mad anymore."

Fisherman said straight to the point.

"Then we can come down?"

Liu Zheng said in surprise.

"Sea Woman can, but you can't."

The news about Fisherman was like a bolt from the blue.
