I am a working emperor in Lobotomy City

Olivier carefully put away all the documents, and then handed a brand new closer certificate to Du Jue with both hands.

"Please accept it, Wen Duo, the third-level tailman."

Congratulations on your promotion at Liming Law Firm.

[Obtained the crafting item: Burnt Offering Brand]

[Description: I want you to burn everything! Until there is not a scrap of flesh left, not a drop of blood left!]

[Effect 1: The way you spread the brand changes from physical contact to eye contact]

[Effect 2: Derived Brands no longer produce a burning effect, but instead burn the Brand Fire]

[Effect 3: The rage of all those carrying the derivative brand will enhance the burning and explosion effects of the brand]

What a fierce burnt offering!

Wouldn't this mean I could just stew the city? Does that mean I'm the city's chef?!

Du Jue could clearly feel that as his rank as a Finisher increased, the quality of the work tools could no longer be compared with the Blood-Running Sword he first obtained. He was looking forward to becoming a first-level Finisher and joining L Company even more.

An orange-red brand appeared on Du Jue's left rib, giving him a vague feeling of being burned.

"Now that we have dealt with all the affairs here, Wen Duo, please come back to the office with us."

"What are you going back for?"

Seeing everyone looking at him in confusion, Du Jue immediately spread out his hands excitedly.

"Take the commission! Otherwise, why would I go back to the office? Is the next commission at V Nest?"

Yuna sipped her milk tea speechlessly before responding.

"We just landed a big order and can take a week off. Why are you so anxious? There are plenty of problems in the city, but there aren't necessarily that many people willing to spend money to solve them."

"And you must have secretly had friendly exchanges with some gang members after get off work yesterday. Philip was already complaining of being tired just from helping out, so how come you are still so energetic?"

These words made Du Jue realize that he might be a little too dependent on the regeneration ampoule.

If it weren't for the spraying of pesticides, it would have been impossible for Du Jue to work non-stop from the time he traveled through time to now. Urban technology is still quite good.

Du Jue immediately took out the new pneumatic syringe he got from Katae at the nursery, opened his collar and demonstrated it to everyone.

"Regeneration ampoules and enkephalins, these two things are very effective. Would you like some, Philip?"

The three people's eyes suddenly became strange. They finally understood why Du Jue was too energetic all day long and even had a tendency towards hyperthyroidism. It turned out that he was a drug addict.

"Ahem, Philip, forget it. And since you said that, Wen Duo, I won't spoil your fun. Let me contact my colleagues."

"Although both of these drugs are products of World Wings and are advertised as having no side effects, it's best to exercise restraint in this regard."

Taking advantage of the time when Salvador's contact was free, Du Jue also sat aside to ask about Yi Yin's situation. He had sent people away before without thinking clearly, and he didn't know if this guy would do anything weird again.

Yuna, who wanted to come over to inquire about the gossip, was sent away by Du Jue to buy a sandwich, and Philip was too embarrassed to come forward and talk because of what happened in the morning.

[Du Jue: Yi Yin, are you okay? Please let me know in advance next time you come.]

Yi Yin: I know! Mom, you're so delicious! You must be the uncrowned cooking god! It's a shame I can't let everyone know this good news.

【Don’t share this only! 】

Yi Yin: I really want to hold you in my arms while I sleep. Last night was so peaceful!

【Du Jue: If you really can't do it, just take a look at this. 】

Du Jue pushed the Urban Girl's live broadcast room over and was very glad that he had caught Brandon as a chat tool. He had to give him a promotion and a raise.

【Yi Yin: My mother with long hair is so cute! 】

Staring at Yi Yin's name on the screen, Du Jue sighed. He really couldn't understand why things with her had turned out like this. It was too outrageous.

Suddenly, the other party sent a picture of two snakes spirally entwined together.

Yi Yin: My tongue can do this, too. I'll let Mom try it next time.

After reading it several times, Du Jue had no idea what she was talking about, so he went about his business.

[Du Jue: Brandon, you are now the head of the live broadcast department. When I have some free time, I will register the company and then I will make up for all the benefits.]

Brandon: Huh? I'm a little underqualified, considering I only just joined and my abilities are average.

Can a person of average ability develop feelings for so many urban psychopaths? Or is he being too modest?

Frowning, Du Jue looked at the message from Olga on the screen, then he remembered that he seemed to have said before that he would treat everyone if he was promoted successfully, but he almost forgot about it because he was so busy.

If Gregor remembered correctly, this man should be a former combat hero of G Company. His body could transform into an insect-like structure, and his current situation was as miserable as those abandoned insect troops.

After all, urban people have strong prejudice and discrimination against the employees of Fallen World Wings.

[To Olga: The City Loves You To Gregor: The City Star Never Ends]

"Wen Duo, I've found you a commission for an urban plague-level crime. Take Philip with you to solve it."

"After that, Yuna and I will visit the six associations that the firm is affiliated with to see if we can find you some big commissions. Don't worry, I know you're anxious for a promotion, but things like this can't be rushed."

Chapter 127 Mirror.

"Senior Wen Duo, are we leaving now?!"

Looking at the excited Philip, Du Jue called Salvador in a somewhat strange way.

"But isn't he your apprentice? Why aren't you joining in the watch?"

"Haha, I found out during the previous mission that you two have more in common. I'm not some stubborn old-fashioned person. As for Yuna, she seems to want to rest."

"That's right. After finally completing a commission, how could you rush to the next one like this? I've only been ordered around like this when I was a low-level cleaner."

"Just let us know when you're done. See you at the office."

Yuna grumbled and followed Salvador out of the building, leaving Philip to ramble on about the details of the commission.

"The commission information will be sent to you later. I may need to print it out. Also, the target location of this commission is within N Nest. I may need to apply for a temporary pass to our firm for you, Senior Wen Duo."

"We need to investigate a madman named Greenzi. He's responsible for massacres at five private schools and four office buildings, resulting in over ten thousand casualties. Most crucially, he disrupted a major family's auction."

"The commission is simple: find Greenzi and kill him."

"Two firms had already accepted the commission, and the highest-ranking finisher they sent out was a Level 4, but all of them were killed."

After listening to Philip's serious report of the details, Du Jue raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that such a big incident could happen in the nest which was not much different from the back alley.

Moreover, this commission level could not be because the auction house raised the bounty to the level of a city plague. There are actually such insect-like things as nobles in the city. It will be a matter of time before he becomes the top of the city.

"How about this, Philip? You gather some intelligence online first, and it's best to compile and organize it. It's time to test your abilities. I'll go get some equipment first. After all, this commission might be very dangerous."

"No problem! I'm pretty good at intelligence!"

Seeing Philip sitting in the waiting area typing away at the keyboard with great enthusiasm, Du Jue immediately left the association building and hurriedly contacted Olga for a drink, otherwise he would probably forget everything once he started working on the commission.

【Du Jue: I’m treating you, come quickly. 】

Olga: Wait!

Sakura Clear Bar.

Du Jue had just entered the private room after swiping his card and had not yet sat down when he heard the door being kicked open. Olga, who was panting, raised her eyebrows and nodded at him who was stunned, but she did not come in. Instead, she leaned against the door frame with a steady breath.

"Why don't you come in? I thought you would be eager to pick up the bottle."

"Because I'm angry. Why would you invite me to a party without my permission? Shouldn't I be the one to set the time?"

"Sorry, Olga, I've been busy with commissions lately. I'm already a Level 3 Finisher. Isn't this just missing old friends?"

"Oh, so you took some time out to deal with me. I'm leaving now."

Seeing Olga turn and leave, Du Jue hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed her arm. After all, she had taken care of him before at the Molar Office. He couldn't become enemies just because she treated him to a meal.

thump.

Olga grabbed Du Jue's wrist with her backhand, pulled it, pushed him to the ground, and hooked the door shut with her foot.

"Then let me see your sincerity."

Olga grabbed the bottle, cracked the cap off, and stuffed it into Du Jue's mouth angrily, immediately washing his face.

"You know what? I used to be considered a wealthy person in the back alley. I was very young back then."

"Then my dad suddenly disappeared. I don't know if he died or just ran away. Anyway, my mom can't do anything, so I have to comfort her."

Then Olga drank half of the bottle and poured the remaining half to Du Jue who was lying on top of her.

"That guy was so scared that he thought he was the one who let his dad run away. His pet dog was almost starving to death. He used dish soap to wash vegetables and didn't even know where to check for his dad's body."

The room became hot with wine all over the floor. Du Jue could only let Olga, who was sitting on him, go crazy with alcohol. She would drink up every word she said and then pour it out to him.

"She was lying on her bed like a broken-down child, pacing back and forth in the living room all day. She didn't look like someone from the back alley."

Olga, slightly tipsy, lay on top of him and pulled out another basket of beer.

"Anyway, she did recover. After all, the city lacks essential things. At least she learned to fry an egg, though she fell ill and died not long after."

Du Jue felt a little uncomfortable with the golden hair stuck to his face by the wine, so he reached out to brush away the veil and the hair.

"Wen Duo, the shadows of the past and those created by others will inevitably cover us. If we don't step out of them ourselves, do we still have to rely on the light others shine? That's just a white shadow."

"I do not need."

"I'm not the type to dither. Since you're not interested, then let's end our relationship here. But I want to hear why you're trying so hard, otherwise I'll be at a huge disadvantage!"

By staring into Olga's eyes, he could feel her sincere emotions and finally understood why she was addicted to alcohol, which touched his heart.

Being able to admit one's past so openly is even more outrageous than showing others one's underwear.

"Of course it's for the top of the city."

"Perhaps you have already guessed it, but in fact, this identity of Wen Duo's cleaner is just borrowed by me. I used to be a gang member, Du Jue. Anyway, changing my identity can avoid a lot of trouble."

"Oh?! I thought you were twins. And I heard that you, Du Jue, killed a Ring Finger Master. Why did you accept Ring Finger commissions before? Forget it, I'm too lazy to ask these questions."

"Olga, don't you think my goal is outrageous?"

"It's indeed outrageous, but how can someone else's shadow overshadow you? Just take a step forward and leave."

Suddenly Olga rolled on the ground and lay on her back next to Du Jue.

"But why do I feel like this target is also your shadow? You don't seem like some naive dreamer, but a fugitive being chased by vultures."

"No! There's no doubt about it!"

Du Jue suppressed his dizziness and tried to stand up. He shook his head and just wanted to go to the bathroom to wash his face to wake himself up, causing the sound of stepping on the accumulated water to be heard in the room.

He held onto the sink, trying not to frown uncomfortably, then turned on the faucet and rubbed his face vigorously. Finally, he felt much better.

The mirrored self looked the same except for the burn on the lower half of its face, and it spoke with a smile.

【Come up.】

I looked at the mouth shape in the mirror with doubt and easily read the content, but suddenly I felt that something was wrong.

【Come up quickly.】

"Where are you going?"

The moment the words came out of his mouth, Du Jue came back to his senses and the horrifying scene before him made his eyes widen immediately.

【Come up quickly.】

Du Jue stepped back in fear, looking at himself in the mirror and speaking more and more anxiously, feeling unbelievable.

Olga's voice came from outside the toilet.

"Du Jue? Are you okay?"

"What the hell are you?!"

I tried my best to lower my voice and stop wondering if I was hallucinating, but the person in the mirror sighed, spread out his hands, and opened his mouth to speak.

【It is the destined demand of life】

[It is the rhythm of the birth of all things]

[It is the only feat you and he have ever accomplished since we first stepped on the earth and looked up at the stars.]
