I'm the King of Wage Earners in Lobotomy City

"But there are others who can replace me, for example..."

"I told you I can't live without you, and my arm is almost numb from holding it up!"

Upon hearing this, Philip quickly grasped Du Jue's right hand with both hands, but Du Jue quickly withdrew his hand in disgust at the overly eager gesture.

This guy is clearly quite strong; he could at least hold off those Black Cloud Society members, but he's far too insecure.

"Let's go borrow a motorcycle."

"Master, and Yuna-senpai, may I leave work early?"

“As Wendo said, once a decision is made, no one can change it. Philip, I believe you have that talent.”

Salvador took away the still worried Yuna, while Dujue took out his wallet and began counting the money he had borrowed for the motorcycle.

Today was different from the past. For the first time since entering the firm, Philip felt that he was not a newcomer who needed to learn everything, but a partner who could communicate with his mentors and seniors on an equal footing. Moreover, some people said that no one else could do without him.

"Wait, Senior Wenduo, this looks like someone else's motorcycle parked here. He's already looking over here."

"Stop talking nonsense and get up here."

Du Jue threw the bundle of banknotes to the angry man charging at him, grabbed Philip, put him in the car, and sped away.

Black Cloud Club motorcade.

"Damn it! That damn mad dog, I'll pay for this!"

"And why is the Dawn Agency operating here? Do they also want to get involved in the war?"

Sase angrily ripped off the bandage, picked up the spray from the first-aid kit, and sprayed it on the wound. Yang, sitting next to her, echoed her with an equally grim expression.

"That's right, if it weren't for Thumb urging us on, these audacious bastards wouldn't have gotten away so easily."

The driver in front gave orders to the rest of the team before speaking.

"Young Miss, the Thumb Conference is tomorrow. It's best to avoid conflict with the high-level agencies now."

"Wait, it looks like someone is following us."

At Gin's prompting, Sayo and Yang both noticed the motorcycle accelerating ahead from behind, both of them wearing black kimonos from the Black Cloud Society.

"Damn it! We were really underestimated!"

Sayo's usual leisurely demeanor completely vanished. Today, she was determined to cruelly dismember this guy who had repeatedly provoked her. After all, who else would be tracking them at this moment? Only that mad dog, Wen Duo.

Du Jue, who was accelerating without restraint, felt his adrenaline surge, and Philip, who was behind him, held him tightly, not daring to relax for a moment.

"Philip, I'll count to three, remember to jump out of the car."

"what?!"

Before Philip could react, Dujue swerved and crashed directly into the car at the front of the convoy, and the three-second countdown immediately reset to zero.

boom!

The motorcycle crashed into the car door instantly, then overturned and blocked the tires, causing the sedan to swerve, skid, and overturn instantly.

"Kill him for me!!!"

Chapter 122 Bloodstained Clothes.

Bang!

The overturned car landed upside down on a fire hydrant, like a turtle with its chassis facing the sky. Inside, Sayo and the other two, who had managed to steady themselves, quickly kicked open the car doors and drove away.

Squeak~!

The following convoy hurriedly stopped, completely blocking the street with a screeching sound of tires, and many drivers immediately leaned out and started cursing.

"Wen Duo, how dare you go back on your word! We are an organization affiliated with Thumb!"

Wiping the blood from her forehead, Sayo drew her sword in a rage. This time, the golden blade emitted a misty, ink-like smoke, which quickly became uneven upon contact with the dark metal car door. The right door even wobbled a few times before falling off the car body.

"You're dealing with the Dawn Agency, what does that have to do with me?"

"I just came here to challenge them."

"You mad dog!"

Spitting out the cigarette crumbs from his mouth, Yang immediately led two men forward. This time, however, he didn't do it himself but instead shouted and urged his team members to come forward.

The team members, standing shoulder to shoulder, suddenly created a strange dark cloud. Du Jue couldn't help but marvel at how much advanced technology the city had, and how things he didn't even recognize always appeared.

Swish swish!

The multiple katanas shrouded in black clouds attacked like the sharp teeth of a ferocious beast, but in the next moment they were all broken by the rough and sharp serrated teeth of the crusher. The extremely domineering difference in weight brutally swept away and eliminated all the black clouds around them.

Gladiator exoskeleton!

Without instantly donning armor, he grinned maliciously and extended his right hand, wielding the Crusher in two wields, taking a sudden step forward amidst the terrified and pleading gazes of his enemies.

boom!

Despite being just a simple cold weapon, it somehow managed to create a shockwave and a deafening explosion, instantly silencing the congested highway, leaving only the sound of flesh and blood splattering as a human body exploded.

Du Jue's hastily put-on kimono and motorcycle helmet were stained with bloodstains that looked like knife cuts, which immediately made the remaining members of the Black Cloud Society hesitant to act, and they all stared in horror at the terrifying serrated knife.

Even Yang, who was used to being arrogant around Miss Sayo, felt his scalp tingle. When did such a ruthless character appear in the city?

Hiding behind the corner, Philip watched as Du Jue alone managed to keep the Black Cloud from advancing, and he was filled with longing and admiration, wishing he could be as reliable as that.

"Are you going to disobey my orders?"

Suppressing her anger, Sayo slowly stepped forward, clutching her gleaming gold katana, and the Black Cloud Society immediately launched another offensive.

The members of the Black Cloud Society tried to exploit Du Jue's weakness of being alone and launched an attack from all directions. However, Du Jue always managed to change his moves with ease, and anyone who was crushed or even grazed by him suffered a broken bone or more.

Within a short time, more than twenty victims lay on the ground with deformed limbs, and the leader, Yang, was even smashed in two.

call out!

A faint whistling sound in the air made Du Jue turn his head immediately. A samurai sword engraved with golden patterns suddenly emerged from the loose crowd. Sase, who was holding it, stared at him with a ferocious expression. In an instant, she rushed forward like lightning and arrived in front of him in the blink of an eye.

Du Jue felt a sharp pain in his waist as the knife tip was heading upwards, trying to pierce his heart. But he had anticipated this and gripped the crusher tightly, flicking it back.

Bang!

Sayo rolled and rubbed her skin on the road like a kite with a broken string until she crashed into a glass shop window and painfully stopped, spitting out bright red blood.

"It seems I won."

As Du Jue drew his golden katana, he realized that his exoskeleton defenses had weakened, likely due to a special technique recently used by the Black Cloud Society.

Sayo struggled to her feet, the skin on the left side of her face was rotting, but she still gritted her teeth and knelt down, pressing her head to the ground.

“I have lost. I will grant whatever you desire, even if it means committing seppuku.”

"You didn't buy life insurance for the future, did you? I remember that as long as your brain is fine, you can clone a complete body using a pre-provided sample. Although it's expensive, it's quite practical and has a much higher success rate than personality chipping."

The insurance coverage was outrageous from the time it was restricted. If the person handling the case is seriously injured and near death, they can enjoy a 10% discount on the body reconstruction service.

Sayo hurriedly tried to speak, but out of the corner of her eye she saw the spiraling spear swiftly swinging down from her right.

Bang!

"Miss!"

The powerful giant workshop crushed his head, causing Yin Xin, the highest-ranking member of the Black Cloud Society present, to despair. He breathed heavily and anxiously issued orders.

"Everyone evacuate! Make sure to notify the guild leader!"

The remaining members of the Black Cloud Society, numbering less than ten, fled in all directions, but at such a speed, they had no way to escape.

Standing before the man who had been crushed into a bloody pulp, Du Jue released his weapon and wiped his face with his clean palm.

After just this one battle, his kimono was completely stained red, and Du Jue didn't even know when he had gotten used to the strong smell of blood.

City life really does nourish people.

"Senior Wen Duo, are you alright?"

"What's going on? Do you understand that we're doing things secretly in private? Just use our official titles when we're talking about it."

Philip, who was about to speak but stopped himself, looked at the bloody scene on the street and felt that it could hardly be called a secret, but he felt a sense of relief seeing Du Jue's indifferent attitude.

Just as Du Jue said, he killed these Black Cloud Society members, while Philip took the opportunity to rescue the people in the nearby hotel.

Philip found it irresistible to feel like he was also a key player in the commission. Unlike when he was on a commission with his master, he didn't have to be careful not to make mistakes and learn from experience. After all, when he was on a commission, there was no plan at all, and he just went ahead and figured things out.

It was very exciting and exhilarating.

"I understand, senior."

Fortunately, this place was long past the association's territory, so there was no need to worry about being arrested. On the contrary, pedestrians took the initiative to stay away when they saw the Black Cloud Society.

If you refuse to put away your weapons, then this is the only way you can meet Yi Yin. Maybe he'll think you smell too bad and lose his appetite.

Why are you following me?

"Senior, shouldn't we go and meet up with our master and the others?"

“I really have something going on at home. Do you think I’m joking? Don’t follow me. Go find your master.”

Upon hearing this, Philip was immediately disappointed and hesitantly took out the cherry blossom card.

"How about I treat you to a bath at the public bathhouse? Besides, I saw a laundry service at Sakura Cooperative that caters to people who need to clean up clothes. They are very professional at removing bloodstains from clothes."

Du Jue grabbed the red kimono and threw it on the ground. The windbreaker underneath was also stained with many dirt. Du Jue was a little puzzled as to why Philip was still following him after get off work.

"Tomorrow, I have to entertain a friend tonight."

"What friend?"

"They came here to freeload a meal, and they're quite picky about it."

"Senior, do you know City Girl? I saw a lot of people discussing it on the forum, and Camille from the Fifth Association even said that you owe him an advertising fee."

Ok?

Du Ju immediately pulled out his communicator to check.

[Brandon: Camille [60 views] Does City Girl have any collaboration plans, such as watching me duel? Angelica [10 views] Doesn't City Girl get tired of chatting with so many people? Don Quixote [37 views] Does City Girl only have soda as her merchandise?! I have purged those counterfeiters! Please give me your instructions, City Girl! Roland [10 views] Why does this person's writing feel so noisy?]

Trying to ride the wave of popularity?

no way!

Behave yourself and line up behind the last person!

[To Camille: The city is watching you; To Angelica: The city is heartless; To Don Quixote: You are the knight of the city]

For Don Quixote, a long-time fan who frequently drops gold coins, Du Jue wouldn't mind playing a role-playing game with him.

"No, Philip, I'm almost home, why are you still following me?!"

Chapter 123: Sympathy.

Looking at the darkening sky, Du Jue stared blankly at the uneasy Philip.

"You want to freeload too?"

"Um, I just wanted to thank you, Wen Duo. It was a pleasure working with you."

Philip quickly explained, then handed Du Jue the paper bag containing the sandwiches, so that Du Jue didn't even realize when he had bought them, and that he was really tired of eating sandwiches.

After all, he had been eating sandwiches on the go for a while, and now the smell makes him nauseous.

"Thanks, Philip. Well, I have a date tonight, otherwise I would have been happy to invite you in. So, how about we talk about it tomorrow?"

"You're not going to ask me who I'm dating, are you?"

"I'm sorry, Senior Wenduo, I didn't know."

He hurriedly said goodbye to Du Jue, too flustered to look at Philip, and left in a panic.

Who are you going on a date with?

Elena's cool voice rang out from behind. Du Jue turned around in surprise and found that this time she had tied her curly, shoulder-length black hair into a ponytail, which looked somewhat like a pineapple leaf.

"Just kidding, that guy is my colleague. I just got off work."
