"No, why would I come here to cause trouble?" The woman smiled gently, "I came to find you after hearing about some of the doctor's deeds."

"Oh, what do you want with me?"

After saying that, as if remembering something, he quickly stared at her with a lecherous look: "If you want to learn medicine, that's not impossible, but you must pay the corresponding price!"

"No, as for medical skills, I still have some confidence."

"Since you're not studying medicine and don't seem sick, why did you come to me?"

"I heard that you secretly harvest organs from patients during surgery and sell them to gangsters. Is that true?"

Upon hearing this, Ham's expression immediately changed, and he said sternly, "Where did you hear this rumor?"

"Of course, I heard it from your patients."

As she spoke, the woman raised her right hand, transforming it into a palm strike that pierced Ham's abdomen.

The excruciating pain completely sobered Ham up.

His eyes widened, and he looked at her with a lack of confidence.

The woman maintained her smile, but her hand slowly withdrew, gradually pulling out her large intestine and kidneys.

"Doctor, there are thirty victims whose organs you stole are waiting for transplants. You don't have enough organs!"

Chapter Sixteen: The Merchant of Death

"Wow, Otto is amazing!"

Gu Qing's eyes lit up when she saw Otto, who had changed into a sharp suit.

Because appearance is so deceptive, one might subconsciously assume the other person is very thin.

But in reality, he is nearly 1.8 meters tall.

In addition, due to his business dealings, Otto had developed a very strong physique. Although he wasn't as burly as a hulking man, he was very upright and had the perfect clothes hanger.

When he put on Gu Qing's high-end suit, his entire demeanor changed, transforming him from a weakling who was bullied into a powerful social elite.

"It's my first time wearing clothes like this, and I'm a little uncomfortable." Otto turned around in front of the mirror, his tone hesitant, instantly shattering his aloof and handsome image.

Gu Qing remained silent.

He was handsome for at least three seconds!

"Just make do with this chin for now, I'll buy you the rest after we eat."

"Ok!"

"Let's go then!"

Gu Qing greeted them and went downstairs first.

This is a two-story building with two storefronts. The ground floor is used as a shop, warehouse, and dining area, while the upper floor is used as a sleeping area, study, and bathroom.

It faces the main street directly, while the back is a narrow alleyway.

When Gu Qing had nothing to do during the day and didn't want to wander around, she would open the front door to sell convenience store items, and at night she would open the back window to accept commissions.

Of course, he is a free spirit.

When to open for business depends entirely on my mood.

Now, he was going to Manhattan to buy groceries for Otto, so he planned to go out through the back door.

However, as the lock was opened, the doorknob was turned, and the door was opened a crack, the cry of a wild cat pierced through the air.

"Lord Gu Qing, be careful!"

Otto suddenly looked alarmed, shoved Gu Qing away, and used the reaction force to back away.

The next second, a grenade was thrown in through the crack in the door.

Pong!

A blinding light exploded, instantly filling the entire house with white light.

Gu Qing and Otto's vision was filled with light, and they could only see a vast expanse of white.

Flashbang!

Gu Qing immediately realized that he had been attacked, and his mind raced as he tried to figure out who the enemy was.

Kingpin?

S.H.I.E.L.D.?

Or perhaps it's the Hydra?

"boom!"

The sound of the door being kicked open stopped Gu Qing from continuing to think.

Just as he was about to act, he heard Otto's voice in his ear.

"Eight people, fully equipped!"

"Close your eyes!"

Without any doubt or hesitation, a grenade appeared out of thin air in Gu Qing's hand.

Pull the safety pin, start the engine, and throw it out.

The movements were completed in one smooth motion.

The enemy, who had just kicked the door open and was about to raise his gun, noticed a grenade rolling towards him and immediately shouted as he rushed out the door.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, flames and shockwaves erupted, blasting the three closest people away instantly, while the others behind them were rendered unable to aim due to the shockwave.

Gu Qing took out the Sun Wheel Blade from the system space and was about to rush out to slash and kill.

His vision had not fully recovered, and he could only see outlines with double images, but he was extremely familiar with the alley behind his house, and he could identify the enemy's location by sound and blurry figures.

"Fire!"

"Da da da"

These people were clearly highly trained elites. Even though they couldn't aim, they knew this was an opportunity for the enemy to retaliate, so they indiscriminately fired at the doorway.

It must be said that their decision was very smart, successfully preventing Gu Qing from taking the opportunity to rush out and kill indiscriminately.

But they overlooked another person.

Otto hid behind the wall, his hands pressed to the ground, mana activating within him, "Eldna!"

"Dena" is an earth magic spell from "Re:Zero -Starting Life in Another World-", while "El" is a title for magic level. There are four levels in total, from lowest to highest: lowest level, El level, Ur level, and Al level.

Otto, on the other hand, used second-level earth magic.

The ground suddenly shook slightly.

The attacker lost his footing and eventually fell to the ground.

Gu Qing seized the opportunity and rushed out.

"Puff puff puff puff puff!!!!"

As the figure pierced flesh with a sharp blade, blood splattered, staining the walls and ground red.

But Gu Qing didn't kill them; he just severed their tendons in their feet and hands to prevent them from making any trouble.

As for why there was so much blood, it's because the major arteries were cut and the blood was drained!

"Boom!"

The Nichirin Blade was embedded in the ground next to one of the attackers' heads. Gu Qing looked down at him and sneered, "At the rate you're bleeding, you'll be dead in less than three minutes. So, answer my questions, and I'll stop your bleeding after this!"

"I won't say anything!"

"And what about you?"

Gu Qing turned to look at the others.

There was no answer; the enemy responded with silence.

However, sometimes, silence is also an answer.

Gu Qing already knew what she wanted, and a smile appeared on her face. "Then I'll send you on your way!"

Hand up, knife down.

Without the slightest hesitation, without the slightest tremor in his hands, he accurately struck the vital point, taking the life in one swift stroke.

Gu Qing wiped the blood off his sword and turned to look at Otto, who had come to the door. "Looks like we can't play together today. I'll leave the aftermath to you."

"I understand, Lord Gu Qing!"

Otto's voice turned cold, and his expression became indifferent, no longer showing any sign of weakness.

Gu Qing frowned slightly, but ultimately said nothing.

Otto is a kind-hearted person.

While it's not to the point of being attacked and unable to fight back, it's unacceptable for Otto to continue killing an opponent after already subduing them, especially to sever their tendons, cut their arteries to bleed them out, and then kill them.

But he is Gu Qing's puppet, and his loyalty to Gu Qing outweighs everything else.

Therefore, he had no choice but to abandon the kindness in his heart.

Just like in the original story where he didn't meet the protagonist in the Pride storyline, he became Russell's slave after his business failed, spending his days selling his soul.

Through his own abilities, he eventually became Russell's right-hand man and earned the title of "Merchant of Death".

Otto now has the prototype of the Merchant of Death.

But

"This might be a good thing for me!"

After a brief moment of thought, Gu Qing came to a conclusion.

He is not a good person. Even though the people he operates on are all people who deserve to die, he is not acting out of a sense of justice, but because he can gain benefits from doing so.
