Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

Thirteen asked, seemingly casually.

"Have."

Liu Zheng readily admitted it.

"Oh? Is it a guest or an employee?"

Thirteen asked again.

"She's an employee. From the Service Department, I think her name is Manko."

"Manko? Wasn't that Hashihime just used by a customer?"

Thirteen said strangely.

"Hashihime?"

Liu Zheng seemed to have heard of this name before.

According to legend, the Bridge Princess is a yokai formed from the resentment of lovelorn women who committed suicide by jumping off bridges.

They would lie in wait in the water by the bridge, and if a man crossed the bridge at night, they would lure him into the water and drown him.

If a woman tries to cross the bridge, they will forcibly pull her into the water and drown her.

Of course, he didn't know how the Bridge Princess of the Metropolis came to be.

"Hmm, that woman knows how to please men, what a pity."

Thirteen Orphans smacked his lips and said.

"Uh"

Looking at his lecherous expression, Liu Zheng's lips twitched slightly.

No wonder Old Man Qing disliked Thirteen Yao so much; besides his failure to repay debts, his excessive lust was probably also a major reason.

"It's a human girl, probably a new employee who inherited Wanzi's codename."

Liu Zheng said.

"Humans? That's really rare. We used to only get one human employee a year, but today we've got two in a row."

The thirteen orphans were marvelous.

He still quite liked humans; they smelled fresher and their thoughts were more complex and unpredictable.

And it is precisely this complex and ever-changing mindset that makes getting along so enjoyable.

His lingering attachment to Old Man Qing was also related to the fact that Old Man Qing was half human.

"It's a pity, the code name Wanzi will soon be vacant again."

Thirteen Orphans shook his head.

"Why, Minister?"

"She probably didn't get in through connections like you, right?"

Thirteen Orphans said in a teasing tone.

"No, it seems they were arrested and brought in."

Liu Zheng said.

"She told you?"

"Yes, Minister."

"Then she must be lying. Even if the bathhouse is short-staffed, they wouldn't kidnap humans to fill the quota. Unless a customer makes a reservation, they would buy disposable items directly through channels, and those wouldn't be considered official employees."

“Those with code names like her are either sold into this business or stumbled in by mistake and then signed an employment contract with her.”

Thirteen said.

"Is it possible to accidentally wander into our bathhouse?"

he asked doubtfully.

"Yes. There are hidden passages in the bathhouse leading outside the bathhouse area. Every now and then, someone accidentally enters those passages and ends up in the bathhouse."

"Moreover, among these people who strayed into the area, humans were the most numerous."

"Of course, they are usually either sent to the kitchen, or to the farm, or they are eaten by their employees. Very few of them can successfully get a job."

Thirteen said.

"It's quite impressive that she was able to get the job."

Liu Zheng said.

"She is indeed quite impressive, but that's about it. There are plenty of non-human newbies who don't survive the first week, let alone a human little girl."

"By the way, how young is the little girl you're talking about?"

Thirteen suddenly asked.

"Well, he was probably around eleven or twelve years old, and he was penniless."

He thought for a moment and said.

"Tch, I'm not interested."

Thirteen Orphans suddenly felt utterly tasteless.

If she's a nice woman with big breasts and a curvy figure, he might be interested in getting to know her.

If you can make him feel comfortable, it's not impossible to become his backer.

But since she's just a little kid, let her fend for herself.

"By the way, Minister, do you know Ms. Yoko from the Service Department?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"Yoko? You mean Yaoji?"

Thirteen said.

"I'm not quite sure either, but I guess so."

"So that human girl had latched onto her coattails; no wonder she got the job."

Thirteen Orphans nodded.

Needless to say, he knew that Liu Zheng must have heard Yangzi's name from Wan Zi.

"Is that Miss Yaoji very powerful?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"She herself isn't particularly outstanding, she's just very dedicated to her work."

"However, her older sister is quite remarkable; she married a full-time employee of the city hall."

Thirteen said.

Aside from true outlaws, no one in the metropolis is unafraid of City Hall.

Especially for those in business, the city hall has a million ways to manipulate them.

Although the ten major bathhouses all have powerful backers, no one wants to invite unnecessary trouble.

So as long as Yaoji doesn't do anything stupid, no one will bother her.

"If that's the case, then this Miss Yaoji must be a really nice person."

Liu Zheng said.

"She's not bad. If you happen to run into her, you might be able to chat with her for a bit. As for the others, forget it. The women in the service department are all incredibly seductive; you wouldn't be able to handle them."

Thirteen Yao gave instructions.

"So you, Minister, should take charge of everything?"

"That's right! Hahaha, you're really quick on the uptake."

Thirteen Orphans laughed heartily.

"Speaking of which, I just took up your time, Minister. This is my penalty."

Liu Zheng took out a stack of banknotes and stuffed them into his pocket.

"Not bad, not bad, I'm liking you more and more. I hope you can keep doing this."

Thirteen Orphans squeezed the thickness of the banknotes, his smile becoming even more sincere.

"I don't quite understand what you mean, Minister."

He said this without changing his expression.

"If you don't understand, that's fine. I just want to remind you that if you cross my line, I won't show any mercy. At most, I'll leave you with a whole corpse."

“I will use all this money to buy you a coffin.”

Thirteen patted his pocket and said.

"No need for you to worry about that, Minister. I have a good relationship with the cemetery caretaker, and I'm sure he will provide me with the best funeral supplies."

Liu Zheng said with a smile.

"You really do have a wide circle of friends. Let's go, we've wasted enough time, the guests are getting impatient."

Thirteen Yao glanced at him, then walked forward.

He followed closely behind.

The scene on the seventh floor was similar to that on the first floor, consisting of a series of barrier rooms, but the area was significantly larger.

"Don't say I don't take care of you. The first guest I arranged for you was absolutely top-notch."

Thirteen said as he walked.

"May I ask, Minister, in what sense are you referring to 'top-tier'?"

Liu Zheng asked with a subtle expression.

In reality, the word "extreme" is often used negatively when describing a person.

"Of course, she's the literal quintessential type. She has a good temper, low expectations, and is generous with her money, but she does have one little quirk."

Thirteen said.

"What little quirks do you have?"

He had a bad feeling.

"It's nothing, I just like SM."

Thirteen Orphans said in a relaxed tone.

"Um"

Liu Zheng opened his mouth as if to speak.

"And this guest likes to play the M side."

Thirteen continued.

"Oh~"

He hesitated.

"What did you just want to say?"

Thirteen suddenly turned around.

"It's nothing. I'm just worried that I'm not violent enough to meet the needs of this distinguished guest."

Liu Zheng said.

"Yes, your concerns are not unfounded."

Thirteen Orphans turned his head back.

"This guest has an amazing physique. It's difficult for an ordinary person to even relax it, let alone hurt it. If you're not up to the task later, you can ask to be replaced. I won't make things difficult for you because of Old Man Qing."

"However, you'd better go back to where you came from, understand?"
