The voices of the neighbors chirped around, all asking what had just happened.
"Ouch, it’s almost the sa as a few days ago, seems like the people who were troubling him couldn’t wait and gave the guy three days. He couldn’t pay up today and got three of his fingers chopped off. I was right there, heard them saying if he doesn’t pay up by tomorrow, they’ll cut off his dick."
"Cut off his dick? Fuck, that’s brutal! Better off dead, he probably won’t be able to pay up tomorrow either, right?"
"Yeah, cut off his dick tomorrow, the day after... tsk tsk, they could easily kill a man, couldn’t they?"
"Alas, he had it coming. Why the hell did he have to gamble?"
"Alright, alright, pipe down a bit."
"..."
The conversation of the residents wasn’t intentionally suppressed, and the man surnad Song could hear it all. He scanned the crowd, eyes filled with genuine resentnt, startling those who had been staring at him; they quickly shut their mouths.
The man turned his head and looked back at the fence in front, thoughts wildly flashing in his eyes. He seed to be pondering over sothing as well as deciding on sothing, but this thing appeared to require a great deal of resolution from him.
He just sat there, and after a while, his face hardened as if he’d made a decision!
anwhile, the expression on his face got noticed by the surrounding folks. Seeing Song Li suddenly get up, they asked involuntarily, "What are you going to do? Don’t do anything stupid."
"Exactly, if there’s really no way out, you could rob Peter to pay Paul."
The advice from the people around was laced with too many ironic undertones, and the man knew exactly what they were thinking—such is human nature!
He glared at them fiercely, but instead of frightening anyone, this gaze further lowered their opinion of him; quite a few thought to themselves:
Such a person deserves to die!
A pair of eyes watched Song Li as he slamd the door open and went inside. Soon after, the sound of smashing things filled the air, followed by a woman’s shrill scream that drew everyone’s attention.
"Have you no humanity left? You’re actually thinking of selling ?"
"Get inside!"
"You... you... why?"
"Get the hell inside!"
"You’re nothing but a beast!"
From inside Song Li’s house ca the terrified, powerless voice of a woman. Although filled with excruciating pain, her voice hooked the souls of all the n present, who couldn’t help but sketch a beautiful woman in their minds.
"Dude, this hidden beauty in a golden house!"
"Song Li sure knows how to play!"
"What do you guys think, what’s her relationship with him?"
"Those who know, know."
The n at the scene wore abashed smiles, but their voices also reached the ears of Song Li inside, which instantly made him roar, "All of you, fuck off!"
Getting the hint, the n stood farther back but didn’t leave. They pricked up their ears, carefully listening to the noises from inside.
Bang bang!
The sound of smashing continued, and the woman’s fragile, disbelieving voice grew weaker, slowly turning from shouts to sobs, and the smashing noises began to subside. Before long, the front door opened, and this man nad Song Li walked out from inside. Before the n outside could see clearly what was inside, he slamd the door shut with a "bang."
"Go fuck your mothers! Piss off!"
Song Li yelled at the people in front of him. The n pursed their lips, made way for him, and soone even said, "Hmm! Like anyone cares!"
In response, Song Li snorted coldly, locked the door directly, grabbed a large bucket nearby, filled it up with water from a tap not far away. During this process, soone teased, "You’d better save so, can you even afford the water bill?"
Song Li glanced at the person, shut the tap without a word, and slowly pushed the full bucket to the front door. He then scanned the area, opened the door, and entered, wielding a knife in a frenzy.
"Stay the fuck away, I’ll chop anyone who cos close!"
The blade glinted coldly, frightening the n around. Now, Song Li was like a plague god; the thugs from the gambling den would soon be after him, ready to take his life at any mont. But on another level, this was also Song Li’s protection.
His life indeed had only two days left—scheduled for collection by the thugs. If they accidentally killed Song Li during their collection, they would likely have to pay his gambling debts. No one dared to ss with this plague god; getting chopped to death by him left you with no place to seek justice.
Curious about the things inside Song Li’s house, the n could only hold themselves back and keep their distance.
After intimidating everyone, Song Li finally opened the door and slowly pulled the water-filled bucket inside. People craned their necks, attempting to get a glimpse of what the woman inside Song Li’s house looked like, but she seed to be locked in a room, leaving them with nothing but silent disappointnt.
After pulling the bucket inside, Song Li imdiately shut the door, locking it from the inside, while the n who had seen him enter quickly gathered around again, tilting their ears to continue listening to the sounds from inside.
Before long, Song Li’s roar ca through: "Won’t take it off? I’ll do it for you, towel! Get yourself cleaned!"
The sounds were sowhat muffled, but that didn’t matter. The n each let their imagination run wild, gradually picturing Song Li forcing a pretty girl to undress, and when she refused, he took matters into his own hands.
"Song Li, you’re damned!"
The woman’s tearful voice stirred the n’s hearts, and soone imdiately couldn’t hold back, roaring at the door, "Ma De, Song Li, are you even human?"
"Open the door! Let the girl go!"
"If she doesn’t want to do it, just leave it be, huh? Can’t you solve it so other way?"
"Song Li, open the door, let’s talk this through."
The n outside tried to reason, but what ca in return was Song Li’s manic bellow, "What the fuck’s it to you?"
Then, the n outside heard the sound of sprinkling water, as if soone was taking a bath, accompanied by a woman’s crying.
After a while, the faint fragrance of shower gel wafted out, lingering at the tips of the n’s noses, making them unconsciously sniff the air.
The n exchanged glances, realizing sothing.
At this ti, shower gel was a rare commodity! And everyone living here was just ordinary folk, unless sothing special happened or there was so kind of deal, they wouldn’t even see a shadow of a Level 1 New Human. And if it were a New Human, they wouldn’t be living in a place like this. But the sudden use of such "luxury" items like shower gel by soone living here often indicated so kind of transaction.
