Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis
Page 454
Since Liu Zheng captured his cousin but only shaved his head instead of killing him, it means he didn't want to break ties with him.
Although Wang Dongdong didn't know what their reasons were for not breaking off relations, it didn't stop him from listening to what the other party had to say first.
"I don't want anything. You don't think I'm trying to use your cousin to blackmail you into letting me into the neighborhood later, do you? No way, no way?"
Liu Zheng said in a sarcastic tone.
"Hmph, only someone like you would think of such a thing."
Wang Dongdong stubbornly insisted, even though that was indeed the only thing he could think of.
"Unfortunately, that's not the case. Work-related matters should be resolved at work. You don't qualify me to resort to underhanded tactics."
he taunted.
In his current state, he might not be able to kill Wang Dongdong in a pure fight, but if he uses props, even Wang Dongdong wouldn't be a match for him.
"So what exactly do you want? Spit it out, I still have to stand guard."
Wang Dongdong said impatiently.
"It's simple, I need to find out about someone."
"Who?"
"The owner of unit 606 in building 4".
Liu Zheng said.
"Impossible, I would never disclose the owner's information to outsiders."
Wang Dongdong said without hesitation.
He knew better than Liu Zheng what kind of people lived in the Crazy City of Green Osmanthus Garden; any one of them was a madman among madmen, an oddball among oddballs.
If their information is leaked and they get exposed, even their deaths wouldn't be enough to appease them.
Of course, it's not to say that it's completely impossible to do.
The bank's information protection is much stricter than their property management's; there were reports of large-scale leaks before.
Of course, shortly afterward, the entire newspaper that published the report disappeared.
If the price is right, I'd sell even my own parents, let alone the owner's information.
Unfortunately, the price of one cousin wasn't high enough.
“I am not an outsider; I am recognized as an insider by the owner of unit 606 in building 4.”
Liu Zheng said.
"Ok?"
Deep down, Wang Dongdong felt that what the other person said might be true.
"Then why don't you just ask her?"
he asked.
"Because something happened, I can't contact her anymore."
Liu Zheng said.
"anything else?"
After comparing it with what he knew, Liu Zheng's words seemed more credible, but Wang Dongdong still asked.
“I’ve delivered takeout to her twice already. If she hadn’t ordered it herself, why would I have delivered it to her twice? And if we weren’t close enough, why would she have ordered takeout on her own initiative?”
Liu Zheng said.
"Um"
This statement became the final straw that broke the camel's back, and Wang Dongdong completely believed it.
However, he felt it wasn't worth it to just reveal the information he knew.
But if a price is set, and the other party has hostages, they probably won't agree.
Wang Dongdong touched the pack of cigarettes he hadn't given away in his pocket and finally made up his mind.
"I can give you the information you need, but you'll have to pay me an extra consultation fee."
He probed first.
"Impossible. To tell you the truth, I know she's probably out of danger, and I've already arranged for people to inquire about her. I believe we'll have results soon. Asking you about her is just a coincidence. If you don't want to, then forget it."
"Don't worry, I won't kill your cousin. At most, I'll shave his head and write 'We Wang family members are all bald' on his forehead."
Liu Zheng flatly refused.
"Hey, isn't that a bit too cruel?"
Wang Dongdong gritted his teeth and said.
"No poison, no manhood. Besides, don't you know what you've done to me? I'm already being very chivalrous by not killing him."
"You win. I'll still charge you the consultation fee."
He said solemnly.
"Okay. Bring Wang Xiaoba's head over here."
"No! Second brother, save me!"
Wang Xiaoba screamed like a teenage girl about to be raped.
"However, I can tell you one more thing."
Wang Dongdong quickly replied.
"Oh? What news?"
Liu Zheng held the boning knife, hovering it above Wang Xiaoba's last remaining hair.
Chapter 359 Liu Zheng: I'm cooked again, it's insanely spicy, thank you.
"News that concerns your life."
Wang Dongdong said.
"There are so many things related to my life, which one are you talking about?"
Liu Zheng asked calmly.
Since he arrived in Metropolis, the number of people, both human and non-human, who want him dead has increased exponentially.
Have you offended that many people?
Wang Dongdong was somewhat surprised.
"Hehe, I've probably offended more people than everyone in your town."
Just by blowing up the 11th floor, how many company executives have died?
Their family members, confidants, creditors, lovers, and other stakeholders number in the thousands.
If it weren't for the Bloody Restaurant backing Liu Zheng and his legitimate claim, the crowdfunding bounty alone would have been enough to buy several of his lives.
"The captain is indeed old and knows a lot."
Wang Dongdong couldn't help but sigh.
Someone who has offended so many people and is still alive and kicking is definitely not someone he can handle.
Even if he really got lucky and killed Liu Zheng, he would definitely not escape the retaliation afterward.
"What did you say?"
"It's nothing. It's just related to my work."
Wang Dongdong said.
"Is it related to your work?"
That must be the security guard's responsibility. The security guard is related to the property management, and the property management is related to the developer, so it must be related to Mr. Li.
"Make a price."
Liu Zheng said directly.
Mr. Li is still somewhat threatening, after all, her status is comparable to that of the Peacock, and the foundation of his power comes from her.
"one million."
Wang Dongdong made an outrageous demand.
"It's still daytime, and you're already dreaming?"
Liu Zheng chuckled.
"This price isn't high; your life is worth far more."
Wang Dongdong's words contained a threat.
A three-bedroom apartment in the metropolis can't be bought for a million dollars.
Of course, those in the old city should be able to afford it, but the group still wants to save face in this regard.
"My life is certainly worth more than this, but can you even get it? Peacock and your boss's boss's boss couldn't kill me, so who do you think you are?"
He said it bluntly.
"Don't try to scare me with that. Although I don't know how you've become so successful, there's no lie about how poor you looked when I first met you."
"Since you can do it, I, Wang Dongdong, am no pushover either. I'm willing to risk my life to bring down the emperor. Last time I almost killed you, but don't think that's all the power I have."
Wang Dongdong said coldly.
He's certainly not lacking in ruthlessness for giving up a stable life in his hometown to work hard in the city.
“Even if you kill me, you won’t enjoy those rewards. There are many people who want me dead, and many who don’t want me dead, but there are still a few who are willing to avenge me.”
"And don't forget, unless you can kill me completely, I can still talk even after I'm dead. And I know too many secrets; any one of them could buy your life."
"Then the only reward you'll get is to buy a burial plot to enjoy. Maybe you'll even be my neighbor. I'm not kidding, the cemetery caretaker is also an acquaintance of mine. You might feel worse when you die than when you're alive."
Liu Zheng said.
"Then how much do you want?"
Wang Dongdong chose to back down.
"One hundred thousand."
He said a number.
"One hundred thousand is too little!"
Wang Dongdong was not satisfied.
"A hundred thousand for free is quite a lot. Besides, there's a risk in revealing the information, right? I can arrange a completely safe place for the transaction."
"Alright. When to make the deal?"
Wang Dongdong asked.
"I'll contact you in advance once I get back to the city."
Liu Zheng said.
"Okay, then release my cousin first."
Wang Dongdong still thought of his relatives who had taken advantage of him.
“I never intended to kill him.”
He shrugged.
Putting aside the fact that he was giving Gaga a good show, he himself was not a bloodthirsty person.
The reason they acted so ruthlessly and fiercely all along was not to kill, but to live.
"Hmph, give the phone to my cousin."
Wang Dongdong said.
