I'm the King of Wage Earners in Lobotomy City

Olga: Never again! Don't let me see you again! There's no such thing as leaving first after treating someone!

The message also included a photo of bare feet stepping on a floor covered in spilled liquor.

[Coco: This is a recording from Kafka Town. I personally tuned it. You're welcome.]

Don't just silently ignore this ring-finger fashion obsession.

[Wang: I heard that Chef Yi Yin is transferring you back. That's a real pity. Although our time together was short, it was very enjoyable.]

[Perry: Wendo, I heard you've joined the Dawn Agency and even been promoted to a Tier 3 Finisher. Congratulations on behalf of Sasha and Darcy!]

Who is this person?

It seems to be those three from the Gloves Company.

[Shamisen: Boss, I've expanded my livestreaming base. Here's the new address. Your building was too dangerous; I always felt like someone was watching me.]

"Senior Wenduo, it's time to go in."

The two immediately entered the train through the fast passage. Du Jue looked curiously at the carriage filled with sleeping capsules, while Philip skillfully opened and entered, deliberately slowing down his movements to demonstrate.

Press the button to close the capsule, preventing drowsiness from settling in and allowing you to fall asleep instantly.

The train's announcement came on.

Upon opening her eyes, Du Jue stepped out of the already opened capsule, feeling quite fortunate that the trip had gone smoothly.

"Senior Wenduo, we'll probably need to study the data to find the target's location, preferably before it strikes again."

As soon as I stepped out of the station, I immediately felt that the style here was completely different from that of K Nest.

The pure white buildings are arranged in an orderly manner, and most pedestrians hurry by with expressionless faces. What is commendable is that they are very law-abiding, and there is hardly any litter on the road.

thump!

Du Jue stared in disbelief as a dark figure landed heavily, while a test paper with a score of 99 swayed and floated down like a leaf.

"what?"

Looking up, Du Jue saw a woman standing on the railing, looking down. She didn't scream or shout, but after a moment she jumped over the railing, knocking the exam papers over in mid-air.

"Could it be Grinch? Can it hypnotize?!"

"It shouldn't be. The intelligence says that Grinch has the ability to turn people into monsters, and his direct combat strength seems to be very strong, but because N Nest has a taboo against filming, the specific situation is unknown."

"The previous two firms waited for Grinch to come to them by camping out at their office buildings and private schools, and then they were all wiped out."

thump!

Another man jumped down, allowing the three corpses on the ground to be combined and upgraded.

"What on earth is going on?!"

What Du Buquan found most baffling was the indifference shown to the pedestrians who seemed oblivious to the tragedy, paying no heed to the blood splattered on them and continuing on their way.

Chapter 130 The Prison.

Du Jue walked into the street with great confusion and saw the pool of blood on the ground. However, he did not see a single person watching the spectacle. Instead, a cleaner leaned his tools against the flower bed to rest.

“Senior Wenduo, let’s go. Perhaps N Nest has its own rules, just like T Nest. I heard from my master that he was not used to the time system there when he went there.”

"Besides, the person is dead, there's no need to bother with them anymore."

Just as Du Jue was still pondering who would be doing the cleaning work inside the nest, a bright blue van sped past and stopped in front of the three corpses.

I didn't expect N Nest's humanistic care to be so quick and effective; this person had only been jumping for less than ten minutes!

Calming the somewhat agitated Philip and preventing some curious individuals from approaching, he immediately noticed two men in black suits getting out of the car. They quickly examined the body.

A line of large characters and the logo of Company N were written on the right side of the vehicle.

[N Nest Welfare Funeral Home - Corpse Collection Team No. 8]

Hey!

This is the first time I've ever seen such a tangible benefit. Although collecting a corpse is really useless in life, it at least has a psychological comfort effect.

"I'm an employee of a welfare funeral home. Sir, did they jump to their deaths?"

"Yes, that's right. I just saw their location; it's on the fifteenth floor."

The two employees exchanged a glance, thanked Du Jue briefly, and then got into their car and drove away.

"Wait, you're not here to collect the bodies?"

"Excuse me, sir, our Team Eight only accepts bodies of those who died alone. Taking bodies indiscriminately will cause trouble for others."

"Aren't all corpses the same? Why do we have to categorize them?!"

"It's different. Lonely deaths are funded by higher authorities and cannot generate profit, so we can't just collect corpses indiscriminately."

"Besides, our team is going to be laid off next week."

As the blue van drove by, Du Jue actually thought what they said made sense. After all, collecting a body costs money. Then he saw another hearse of the same model stop in front of the body again.

This time, we must prevent anyone from seeing the lettering on the vehicle; it belongs to Squad Three.

"What's going on? Another suicide attempt? Aren't there a lot of suicide vending machines around here? They're just causing us trouble!"

Have you managed to contact them?

“I made a phone call on the way. I checked and found that the couple came from a back alley and had no other relatives in the house. I asked their company and they were unwilling to pay for the funeral expenses.”

"Sigh, can't these people prepare money for their funerals in advance? Isn't this just creating trouble for themselves?"

"Then I'll call Squad Eight. Let them do this kind of thing; it's a way to make use of them."

Du Jue was speechless as the hearse was about to drive away.

These World Wings concepts sound amazing, but when it comes to actually providing benefits, they're incredibly stingy.

Just as Du Jue was about to step forward to help pay the fee, as a way of thanking the three for giving him a successful start to the N-Nest business, his communicator suddenly rang.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the client specifically requested by Company K last time.

His voice was synthesized electronically.

"Wen Duo, congratulations on your promotion to Tier 3. Secondly, we have completely located the theft site of the regenerated ampoule. To match your new rank, I have increased the commission fee."

"Please arrive at the K Nest fried chicken shop (Candy Street store) before the end of this weekend. I will then send you the details of the commission. Please do not be late or absent. I hope you can be fully prepared for everything, as the duration of this commission may range from one day to one week."

"above."

Before Du Jue could ask any further questions, the other party hung up the call, making Du Jue even more suspicious of the request from a senior executive of Company K.

However, he was just an ordinary Tier 3 finisher, which in the World Wings would only be a slightly higher-level employee, so it was unlikely that he would be targeted by such a large force.

“Senior Wenduo, shall we go and take a look at the Hive residential area? Several monsters created by Grinch are imprisoned there, which may provide us with some clues.”

Du Jie's thoughts quickly returned to Grinch, and he then began to examine the intelligence that Philip had compiled and printed.

This guy is a madman who suddenly appeared recently. The local law firm has conducted an investigation and believes that he is not a member of the N-Nest group. His targets are all densely populated areas, which is speculated to be an act of revenge against society.

The profile, based on eyewitness accounts, describes the person as a guy with pointed ears and long, green hair reaching the ground, who is over two meters tall. Other than that, no other details are visible.

All the victims who shake hands with him will turn into monsters, but a very small number will be able to become individuals similar to Grinch.

Since there are no cameras, it is currently impossible to determine where the other party is hiding.

"Are you crazy? Would it kill you to install a camera? If someone dies, finding the culprit will be a huge hassle!"

"No wonder these people are so indifferent. Could it be that they can't confirm whether the person next to them is a murderer, so they're keeping their distance? What dark forest?!"

Instead of cursing and swearing, Philip handed the intelligence to his contact and immediately took a taxi to the Hive residential area.

As soon as he got off the car, Du Jue was stunned when he saw the residential area in front of him.

The extremely dense white buildings, crammed together like building blocks, are suffocating to look at. A quick glance reveals seven or eight alleyways leading into the residential area.

"Is that monster being kept here?"

"Well, this place seems to have originally been a low-rent housing area. Someone opened a cheap private prison in it. There is currently no treatment for those monsters, and even if there were, it would be too expensive. They have basically been abandoned."

"They're opening a prison in such a densely populated area?!"

Do not follow Philip, who has done his homework, as he enters the area. As they wander through the damp and narrow alleyways, the locals cautiously keep their distance upon noticing their unusual attire.

A cheap prison.

"What a straightforward name."

Under the respectful reception of the guards, Du Jue was greeted by a luxurious cell. Inside, a fat man was watching TV and eating heartily at the desk. As soon as he saw the two men's clothes, he immediately put down his fried chicken and greeted them.

"Oh! Your Excellency the Retreat Officer, I am the Warden of this place, Javert. As you can see, I am still serving my sentence. Please make yourselves at home."

"Although you probably already know this, I still want to emphasize that those weirdos are perfectly safe when they're crouching in the corner. They'll eat and sleep on their own, but don't look at their faces. Last time, several guards who made bets about it ended up in the blue car."

Du Jue was stunned for a moment before realizing that the so-called little blue car was the corpse collection vehicle she had just encountered.

Too lazy to bother with the bizarre fact that the warden also had to serve his sentence, Du Jue hurriedly turned around and went into the prison, where he soon saw the room where the strange man was being held.

Unlike the other prisoners who would make a ruckus upon seeing newcomers, the four people in the room all covered their faces and faced the wall. There were a total of thirteen strange people locked in the four rooms, and they looked no different from ordinary people.

"Open the door."

The guards nearby immediately looked troubled, clearly wary of these well-behaved fellows.

"Give me the key, and get out of my way."

Upon hearing this, the guard felt as if he had been granted a pardon and immediately put his hands on the key and ran away. The surrounding prisoners suddenly fell silent.

Chapter 131 Grinch.

Click!

Du Jue tossed the keychain to Philip and strode inside, ignoring the other's advice. He mainly wanted to see what level this monster was at; if it was too powerful, he would have to ask for more money.

"Hey, what's your name?"

The man in the knitted hat, who was covering his face, remained silent, only looking down and frowning, as if he were pondering some unspeakable matter.

Seeing that this guy was unresponsive, Du Jue directly lifted his head, and his lifeless eyes quickly focused.

"Am I really a prisoner? Nameless and faceless, existing just like those people whose names I can't recall, existing only for the sake of the city itself?"

"To welcome guests, a carpet is placed at the door, but I'm just an item that gets replaced. I have to shout to even get my name?"

Bang.

A deep, resonant heartbeat suddenly broke the silence.

Hey!

Du Jue's expression changed instantly, and she retreated warily, watching as the man in the knitted hat suddenly swelled up, his rough green skin and sharp ears making him look incredibly strange.

He swiftly drew the Blood-Nourishing Sword with both hands, the sharp blade instantly piercing the opponent's massive right arm. However, the monster roared excitedly to the sky, raising its hand to deliver a savage slap that sent Du Jue flying.

Bang!

The monstrous crusher's serrated teeth shattered the monster's arm without any surprise, instantly slamming it heavily against the wall.

"I can't be kept here!"

Its surging size burst through the ceiling, which only made the monster more agitated, causing it to straighten up.

Dodging the falling bricks, Du Jue, seeing this, also unceremoniously drew his massive spiral gun and plunged it into the giant monster's chest.

The feel of it... it didn't pierce the heart?!

Du Jue was stunned for a moment before the giant reached out its other hand to crush him, but Philip behind him quickly spoke up to warn him.

Blood pump!

puff!

The crusher instantly beheaded the monster that occupied a quarter of the cell. The huge head rolled down and even bent the steel bars. The two grotesque cellmates, who were knocked down, still hugged themselves and lay on the floor.

"Senior Wenduo, are you alright?!"

"Don't worry, but why does this feeling seem a little familiar?"
