Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

"It's a plane tree," said the French plane tree.

The existence that can sever the connection of the annual ring contract is definitely not something Liu Zheng can deal with, which is why the French sycamore was surprised that he was not dead.

"Okay, then I forgive you."

Liu Zheng shrugged.

"That dead man's head smells good, give it to me."

The London plane tree made a request.

“I dare to give it to you, but do you dare to eat it? This is a wanted criminal specifically requested by the city hall, and the sanitation department is one of the departments involved in the joint enforcement. Be careful, or the city hall will dig you up by the roots the day after you’re buried in the black soil.”

"Humph, you stingy guy!"

The plane tree gave him a disdainful look and then hid its face.

"This guy is quick to back down when he needs to."

Liu Zheng couldn't help but laugh.

But it's not surprising, since the Sanitation Department is to the French plane tree what the Bloody Restaurant is to him.

Don't let the shrewdness of the French plane tree fool you; it can bully anyone, kick anyone, and even dare to stick its roots into the sewers to steal food. It truly lives up to its name as a street tyrant.

But if the sanitation department issues an official document to relocate it to some godforsaken place, it will be completely caught off guard.

Dare to resist? We'll dig you up by the roots right there and then, and scatter the soil around your head.

Chapter 516 Another faction comes to steal the credit.

After waiting a few more minutes, a black official car drove up from a distance.

Liu Zheng felt a sense of relief, but when he saw the license plate number, his heart jumped again.

Although he couldn't remember the license plate numbers 4399 and 8848, he was certain it wasn't this one.

After a moment of urgent thought, Liu Zheng put Garcia's head into the legendary delivery box and then ran towards the well without hesitation.

"stop!"

Upon seeing this, the person in the passenger seat slammed the car door open, jumped out, and chased after him.

The person who came was wearing a navy blue uniform, similar in style to 4399's uniform, but with many differences in the details.

He wore a dark blue peaked cap, the emblem of which was a golden shield with crossed muskets and swords.

Liu Zheng, of course, wouldn't stand still; he swung his legs even faster.

Seeing that he showed no sign of stopping, the newcomer acted decisively, drawing a miniature pistol from his waist and pulling the trigger.

"boom!"

The tiny pistol, no bigger than a syringe, made a cannon-like sound, and the enormous recoil sent the person flying.

However, the person did not fly backward, but instead flew forward against common sense, arriving behind Liu Zheng in the blink of an eye.

"I'm from the First Criminal Investigation Bureau of the Public Security Division."

He was about to reveal his identity and order Liu Zheng to stop when he saw the latter forcefully insert the tip of his tentacle into Liu's ear canal, causing blood to flow out.

"So cruel?"

The visitor paused for a moment, and his understanding of Liu Zheng became even clearer.

As expected of the newcomer that group of people valued, he has already passed the test in terms of decisiveness.

However, as an elite member of the Criminal Investigation Bureau, he had seen all sorts of depraved criminals, so this level of crime was not enough to catch him off guard.

"Since you don't want to hear it while you're alive, then I'll tell you after you're dead."

The newcomer sneered and raised his hand to fire another shot.

"biu!"

A faint gunshot rang out, and a blue laser beam shot towards the back of Liu Zheng's head.

This is a high-temperature explosive ray; if it comes into contact with a piece of flesh, it can blast a large area around it into ashes.

Even if this black goat cub has a strong regenerative ability, it will temporarily lose its ability to move without its head.

"Go!"

Faced with the sudden attack, Liu Zheng seemed to have eyes in the back of his head and swung his fishing rod to block it.

The heat rays, powerful enough to melt the armor of a main battle tank, struck the slender fishing rod, only causing it to glow slightly red before being completely absorbed.

"what?"

The effect was so good that even Liu Zheng was surprised.

But then I thought about it again. Si Xue was a ruthless person who bathed in molten gold, so it made sense that the fishing rod she made with her own blood had a special effect against high temperatures.

The newcomer was also caught off guard by this outcome, and his movements faltered.

"good chance!"

Liu Zheng suddenly stopped, then turned and kicked.

The sheep's hoof whistled sharply, kicking the heavy manhole cover into the air.

"Kick (Active Skill): Consumes moderate stamina to launch a powerful kick backward, with Strength attribute calculated as 1.5."

He gave the person a bright smile, then turned his back and jumped into the manhole.

"?"

The man shot the manhole cover to pieces, then looked at the well opening with a mixture of anger and uncertainty on his face.

He raised one foot as if he wanted to jump, but eventually put it down.

The more you understand the metropolis, the more you realize how terrifying these landmarks are.

As official employees of the city hall, no one would intentionally harm them unless there is a significant conflict of interest.

However, when it comes to these landmarks, without a sufficiently compelling reason, being a city hall employee can actually be a disadvantage.

"does it worth?"

The visitor asked himself this question.

He quickly arrived at the answer.

"Delivery driver, I'll remember you."

The person made a harsh statement and then turned and left.

Of course, Liu Zheng didn't hear his harsh words, because after jumping into the well, the latter ran non-stop to the riverbank.

Liu Zheng even called the fisherman.

Soon, the fisherman and the butcher arrived together.

"what's the situation?"

The fisherman asked.

"I just killed a wanted criminal. It must have been someone from another faction in the city hall trying to steal the credit, so I ran away."

Liu Zheng explained the matter clearly in just a few words.

"Then what are you going to do now?"

The fisherman asked again.

"I'll contact my faction again. If he comes after me, you guys just need to hold him off for a while."

He said.

"Why are you stopping us? Just kill them."

The fisherman whistled, and a small fish with a golden body and six large black spots on each side of its body surfaced.

"Isn't that an archerfish?"

Liu Zheng blurted it out.

"That's right, you actually know this."

The fisherman was somewhat surprised.

This type of fish is considered rare in sewers, and he only managed to breed a few usable ones with great difficulty.

I've seen it on TV.

Liu Zheng said vaguely.

There is a large color TV donated by the community in the welfare home, and they watch TV for them every day after dinner.

Of course, given the old man's temperament, the programs shown were mostly science and education programs.

It was during that time that he passively accumulated a bunch of useless and wonderful knowledge.

For example, the archerfish is a type of brackish water fish that can live in both rivers and coastal waters.

It has a special groove at the top of its mouth that forms a channel when the tongue touches it, just like the barrel of a toy water gun.

When the gill cover suddenly closes, a powerful jet of water can be shot out through the pipe, with a range of up to one meter.

This archerfish, which is entirely yellow, also has a very catchy name: "Golden Anti-Aircraft Cannon".

"Hmph, this isn't the common kind you see on TV. This is a hybrid I've carefully bred. What shoots out of its barrel isn't a jet of water, but a swordfish's sword."

The fisherman said smugly.

"Huh? Isn't that a swordfish's mouth?"

"Who says you can't shoot with your mouth? You're always throwing things around, aren't you?"

The fisherman retorted.

"Okay. You guys handle it. I'll hide for a while."

After saying that, Liu Zheng ignored them and hid inside another sewer passage along the riverbank.

Before he could even take out his phone, a call came in from 4399.

"Where are you?"

4399 asked as soon as he opened his mouth.

"A man claiming to be from the Criminal Investigation Bureau just came by. I thought he might be trying to steal credit, but I didn't want to have a direct confrontation with him, so I hid in the sewers."

Liu Zheng replied.

"Describe what he looks like."

4399 asked.

He was about 1.85 meters tall, with a square face, greasy hair, and no eyebrows.

He told the other person all the physical characteristics he had noted down.

“That’s right, he is indeed from the Criminal Investigation Bureau. At the same time, he is also a member of the ‘Hybrid Faction’.”

4399 replied.

"Hybrids?"

"We'll discuss the details when we meet. We've arrived, please come on up."

4399 said.

"it is good."

Liu Zheng was careful and didn't go up through the original sewer well, but instead went directly up to the surface through the current sewer well.

"You're as cautious as an opossum."

Seeing him emerge from another sewer well, 8848 couldn't help but complain.

"I think 'like a sand cat' sounds better."

After confirming that there were only two people, 8848 and 4399, Liu Zheng walked towards them.

"Should we check our work IDs? What if we're imposters?"
