Chapter 39: Chapter 30 Daily Life
Apartnt 603, 6th floor, No. 221 Shell Street.
An old lady was blocking the door, holding a notebook in her hand, and was nagging at Chen Xiao inside the door.
This old lady could be described in four words.
“Fat and square!”
Unfortunately, she always liked to wear girlish clothes, like right now, she was wearing a close-fitting beige coat that bulged roundly at the sleeves and shoulders, and her enormous chest and waist fat created an astonishingly tight crevice. You probably couldn’t pull out the notebook even if you tried. The tight jeans below accentuated her soft and huge buttocks, making them very noticeable. Chen Xiao stared at the few threads on the seam that looked perilously stretched, barely daring to breathe, fearing that one forceful move from the old lady could burst her pants open…
Oh, right, she was also wearing light pink lipstick and eyeshadow, how should I put it… um… quite terrifying.
“Six months, eight thousand, or twelve months once for fifteen thousand!” The old lady said with a smiling face, and Chen Xiao was grateful she didn’t wear fake eyelashes, otherwise, they would have definitely been squeezed off by those thick eyelids, how awkward that would have been.
“Uh… I’ll pay for half a year!” At this mont, Chen Xiao was holding the door handle with one hand and the other hand was held behind his back, he said cautiously.
Seeing this, you should have guessed!
Yes, you guessed it right, that writer nad “Qiu Mujin” hadn’t paid the rent at all, she even told the landlord old lady almost a week in advance that today, a young man nad “Chen Xiao” would pay the rent to her.
Yes, you guessed it again, after Chen Xiao left “Anomalous Creature Research Area No. 15,” the taxi that drove him was rigged. He was brought near this neighborhood intentionally, including the coincidental appearance of that “Class D Anomaly,” the room “603” that the writer had rented a week earlier, and her conveniently being at the coffee shop downstairs, all of this was a setup.
Yes, you fucking guessed it again, actually, all of this was arranged to make Chen Xiao co to this room to et that girl who claid to be an “Angel”!!!!
Yes… uh, everyone already knows the rest, of course, these beca instantly clear to Chen Xiao after he saw the paper Qiu Mujin had stuck on the wall.
The specific reasons and the intricacies, he definitely hadn’t figured out yet, but no rush, the truth always surfaces!
Now, what he was depressed about was, “Wasn’t it agreed that this room was given to
as a gift? Even the rent has to be paid by , how is this considered a gift?”
The old lady saw the dejection in Chen Xiao’s expression and thought he had so objections about the rent, so she imdiately put on an even brighter smile than before.
“Oh dear, young man, don’t hesitate, at this price, it’s half the price of other rooms. Look at this location, this decoration, this floor, and look at the house prices these years. The only reason I rented it to you, seeing you look honest, is because of that. Otherwise, if you tried sowhere else, it wouldn’t be this cheap at all…blah blah…”
While saying this, she gently waved her sturdy hand, even slightly lifting her orchid fingers.
Chen Xiao, listening to the old lady’s words, tried very hard to maintain a smile, thinking, “Sister? Are you talking about yourself? Clothes can’t cover your real age, big momma! Moreover, this place is clearly so cheap because it’s haunted, you make it sound like I’m getting a bargain, what’s most important, how did you figure out I look honest? Just for the rent, you ditch your conscience?”
Chen Xiao scread inside his head.
The old lady kept on talking as if reciting a single-person cody that she had practiced countless tis. There wasn’t a hint of hesitation between her words.
“Considering you’re single, there’s a café downstairs, many young girls around 20 years old hang out there after work. Or are you not single? Even better, a young couple sitting in the café, chatting, drinking beverages, improving your relationship, how nice. Look at how thin you are, you should exercise more. There’s a gym in the next block, perfect for you to check out. There’s a bus stop, a subway nearby, travel is so convenient, there are supermarkets, restaurants… blah blah…”
The old lady kept on talking non-stop, showing no signs of leaving.
…
Chen Xiao still maintained a forced smile, his hand behind his back once again tightly gripping that folding fruit knife.
“Maybe I should stab her! I really can’t stand it anymore!” Chen Xiao thought, “Seeing how slick she looks, if I stabbed her would the fat just spray out~”
“Er… sis… sister!” Chen Xiao gritted his teeth and squeezed out this address, “I’ll pay for a year.”
The old lady paused for a mont, thinking her persuasion had worked, and imdiately her eyes smiled with joy.
“You see, brother, I knew you were a smart guy, this deal, you’re guaranteed not to lose out, this one year, water bills… electricity bills, young people don’t know how to manage money, actually, it’s quite a lot of money… blah blah…” The old lady kept talking, dancing with her hands, and occasionally touching Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao’s smile stiffened.
“Sister, I have so urgent matters, I see you still have several hos left to collect rent from, maybe you should attend to those first!”
Upon hearing this, the old lady revealed a sly smile.
“Hey hey hey… Spending the weekend alone at ho doing what?” She raised an eyebrow at Chen Xiao, her lips curling up mischievously. “Young man, I understand you’ve got energy, but you need to keep it under control. Look at this beautiful dayti, wasting it on such matters is a sha, how about I introduce you to so girls from our neighborhood? Speaking of old Li’s family… blah blah…”
Chen Xiao felt like dying.
“Hey, you’ve already got what you wanted, why aren’t you leaving? And why are your thoughts so dirty? And why do you keep touching ? Can’t you see how fierce I look? Do I really have to yell at you to fuck off?” Chen Xiao raged internally, “No way! Seeing how she talks, she must be an expert at arguing in the streets. What if I anger her and she brings a group of sisters to retaliate against ? That would definitely end my peace. Knock her out? That would be even worse when she wakes up!”
As Chen Xiao thought about this, the folding knife in his hand clicked intensely.
“Hold on, don’t act rashly. Although there are no caras here, the fact that she cos to collect rent can’t possibly be unknown. If I attack now, I will definitely beco the pri suspect. I could forge a ledger showing her rent hasn’t been collected, and I’m confident enough to prove she never ca to the 6th floor. But dealing with the body and bloodstains is difficult. I’m not familiar with the surroundings, and it’s not easy to get sulfuric acid and oxalic acid, so I would have to use soapy water with a lot of potassium iodide. Given the size of the body, I would need at least 5 buckets. Considering the brushes, cloths, spray bottles, and things like leather jackets and boots, it will definitely attract attention. Even if I can clean up the bloodstains, disposing of the corpse afterward is troubleso. Based on the current situation, I can only boil it in hot water and take it out in batches. The scent and blood sll can be neutralized with Scale Powder and niacin. Sealing the doors and windows might just cover it up. But with this size, a 24-hour reporting period is simply not enough. Plus, the fat can easily clog the drain. The sudden heavy use of gas and water is practically announcing to everyone that I’m disposing of a body…”
Chen Xiao was lost in such wild thoughts…
Well… okay, I admit this is just padding the word count. In fact, Chen Xiao rely flashed his trademark nauseating smile at the landlady, who frowned and left. As she left, she muttered, “You’re insane~~!”
…
Chen Xiao closed the door and flopped onto the bed.
It was a sunny Sunday with pleasant temperatures. It had been just two days since he left the “little cabin,” but he was already fed up with it.
That night, he saw that his mission status had changed to a green “Mission Completed,” and he casually opened his “Profile.”
It now read:
——————————
Na: Chen Xiao
Position: Field Agent for Anomalous Creature Research Area No. 15 in K City
Level: D
Past Missions: 1 D-grade
Honors: None
Funds: 25
Abilities Overview: “Details”
——————————
Chen Xiao browsed through all the items in the D-grade exchange section and found nothing worth trading except for so painkillers and bullets. So, adhering to the principle that every penny counts, he decided to save up.
Lacking anything better to do, Chen Xiao speculated about the relationship between the girl who called herself “Angel,” Qiu Mujin, the taxi driver, and others.
Obviously, this was a group of diligent people trying to assist the “Angel” sister. There were probably many of them, well-organized and disciplined, so even connected to the Order Foundation.
Believers? Utilizers? Controllers? Collaborators?
Without any evidence, these questions were unanswerable.
In any case, they had chosen him for so reason that was yet to be disclosed.
Forget it, thinking about these unanswerable questions is boring enough. So, the next day after leaving the “little cabin,” Chen Xiao began going through the Order Foundation materials on his phone that he hadn’t had ti to look at yet.
However, with his unconventional reading style of scanning and skipping intertwined with inference and imagination, these docunts, which were limited to the lowest reading privileges, simply weren’t enough.
Unfortunately, the D-grade mission area was completely empty, without a single available mission.
…
Thus, after sending the landlady away, the current situation arose.
Chen Xiao lay on the bed, tossing and turning, utterly bored and itching for sothing to do!
“Give
a mission!” Chen Xiao shouted, picking up his phone again.
That’s the thing with novels, when ordinary daily life gets boring, a new plot twist always appears.
Sure enough, with a “ding,” a new mission popped up in the “D-grade Mission Area.”
Chen Xiao sprang up and accepted it without a second thought.
“Hehehe~,” he chuckled neurotically and clicked on the mission brief!
