Chapter 15 It would be better if the eyes were red
The light was dim, and the artificial light source not far away emitted a dim glow, making it almost impossible to see the scenery in the distance.
This is a corner of the underground black market. The black market is hidden from the sun, but it is not necessarily underground. In the filthy ditch, several mutant rats as big as human heads are staring at everyone quietly.
They are not afraid of humans. Their hair is covered with sticky liquid, and their fingers and teeth are stained with various mixed viruses that even virus experts cannot describe.
There are no tall buildings here, and neon lights are flickering constantly. Some drug addicts are lying in the corner, twitching constantly.
Li Yu even saw some pieces of flesh and blood that had just dried up. This was the breeding ground for evil.
The laws of the Star Empire don't work here. The only thing that works here is fists!
Everyone followed the fat man. Their route did not approach the center of the black market, but just wandered around the edge.
There were not many creatures, but I saw a non-human race with red skin, four arms, and extremely tall.
"The Four-Armed Titans are a powerful race in the interstellar space. Each of them is very powerful and they believe in the law of the jungle." The introduction that Lao Lu gave when he first saw the Four-Armed Titan emerged in his mind.
The underground black market is not small, it can even be called huge. Huge holographic images are projected on the streets in the distance, introducing the latest "housekeeping" robots to the guests passing by.
There are no laws here, but there are rules. The rules are much stricter than the laws. There is only one outcome for violating the rules, and that is death!
A group of people followed the fat man in a mighty manner. Their ragged clothes and foul smell made many people laugh exaggeratedly and mock them, but no one dared to take action.
Because at some point, Fatty San had a flame-patterned logo pinned on his chest.
The old scavengers were all very calm, calculating how to spend their remaining star coins. Only those scavengers who came here for the first time were angry.
There are not only desperate criminals here, but also some imperial people who are looking for excitement. Those people are the most troublesome. If one of them dies here, it will cause a huge shock.
"Old Three, you're late."
Crossing the street, we came to a three-story dilapidated building. A burly man in a black coat made a dull sound. It was so eerie and scary here that people couldn't help but hold their breath.
"Haha, second brother, we wasted some time. Somehow, there were several more checkpoints..." the fat man complained.
"You're the only one missing. Arrange your people. Go upstairs." The man ordered with a serious face.
This is where Li Yu and his friends will live from now on. It is very safe here, but if they go out, it would be hard to say what would happen.
There are many rooms on the first floor, all of which are very old and have creaky floors. They have been in disrepair for many years and are filled with the smell of dust and a fishy odor that makes people hold their noses.
"Wait..." The man in the coat watched Li Yu and others enter the building, but when his eyes passed by a person, his eyes suddenly froze.
"Don't fucking move!" the fat man shouted immediately!
A group of scavengers stopped, looking somewhat frightened and uneasy.
Crunch! Crunch!
The only sound here was the man's footsteps on the floor. He walked in front of the pheasant and stopped.
Shan Ji hurriedly said: "Sir, my name is Shan Ji, the chicken like in cock|ba, and my elder brother is..."
"Get out!" The man spat out a word, which exploded in Shanji's ears. Shanji then realized that he was not looking for him. He ran away in a hurry as if he had been pardoned.
Behind him, Mo Duo lowered his head and stopped where he was. The scavengers nearby were all retreating. Li Yu glanced at Mo Duo and did not move.
The man looked down at Mo Duo, his eyes deep and silent: "Raise your head..."
Mo Duo trembled all over and slowly raised his head. His dark green eyes were full of fear and tension.
The man's hand slowly reached into his arms. Li Yu narrowed his eyes. There were probably about ten bullets left in the sniper rifle.
The atmosphere at the scene was very tense. As the man pulled his hand away, a palm-sized magnifying glass was taken out.
"Don't move..." He said coldly, picked up the magnifying glass and looked carefully at Mo Duo's eyes.
The fat man showed a barely perceptible sarcasm.
After a moment, the man sighed and shook his head: "It's not a colored contact lens... What a pity, it would be better if it was red."
The third fat man came over at this moment, showing a curious expression: "Second brother, what if it is red?"
"If it was red, I could dig it out..."
The calm tone narrated the chilling words.
"A few years ago, the Blazing Eye Gem was hyped up to a very high level, and the Blazing Eye Clan was almost wiped out because of it. If it was red, I might be able to forge a replica."
"Really? How much does it cost?"
"Tens of millions of star coins, one..."
The two talked as they walked up the shaky stairs, leaving everyone else feeling relieved.
Mo Duo stood there in a daze, clenched his fists, his whole body trembling uncontrollably, and his eyes were empty and lifeless.
"Let's go and pick a room. The better ones will be taken soon." Li Yu patted Mo Duo's shoulder, waking him up as if from a dream and letting go of his clenched fists.
“Okay…Okay…”
"Who is it? Can't you see that this place has been chosen?"
Pushing open the door, the two scavengers glared at Li Yu, but after they came to their senses, they broke out in cold sweats.
Isn't this the devil who tears people's faces?
"I know this place is already occupied, but I also want to live here..." Li Yu expressed his reasonable request.
After much deliberation, the other party decided to show courtesy and give the room to Li Yu.
"Thank you..." Li Yu expressed his sincere gratitude. He had stayed in this room several times before. This room had a hidden advantage.
The faucet in the toilet was still usable, which meant he could connect an external water pipe to take a shower. This was what Lao Lu told him.
After prying open a floorboard, a white water pipe appeared in front of him, and he immediately smiled.
"Finally I can take a shower..."
"I... I'll go out first..." When Li Yu started to take off his clothes, Mo Duo realized something was wrong and left the room in a panic.
Li Yu was stunned for a moment, and continued to take off his clothes. The little noisy one-eyed man beside him flashed: "Master, I suspect that Mo Duo's feelings for you are not pure."
"You have already used the word emotion, how can it still be pure..." Li Yu was speechless.
"Except for those species that practice same-sex reproduction, this kind of emotion is still likely to cause discussion among humans," Little Noisy analyzed.
"Have you ever analyzed the possibility of a woman disguising herself as a man?"
The noisy one-eyed little guy simulated a blinking image and continued to answer: "Master, even the most vulgar interstellar biography would not use such a plot."
Li Yu: “…”
"Also, when I scanned Moduo with an infrared scanner, I found no obvious abnormalities."
"The excess heat energy collection and the missing heat energy collection characteristics of women were not found in him."
On the third floor, through the shabby and decaying door, the inside was , covering the entire room.
There are four seats on the long white table in the middle, two on each side.
The man in the black coat had a calm expression. Opposite him was a middle-aged man in a red robe. He had a pale face, deep eye sockets, and looked a little scary.
Opposite the fat man was an enchanting woman wearing a white cheongsam with a high slit. Her legs were crossed, and they were long and fair. She covered her mouth with a fan, leaving only a pair of crystal eyes exposed.
Buzz!
There was a buzzing sound, and the bricks on the wall reflected light, projecting a vague figure at one end of the long table.
"Let's start..." A blurry figure spoke, and the voice had been specially processed, making it difficult to tell whether it was real or fake.
"Yes, sir..." The four of them spoke in unison, with the middle-aged man with a pale face speaking first.
"In the past six months, the volume of human transplant business has increased slightly, with the turnover reaching 40 million star coins. The profit should be around 15 million star coins."
"Hmm..." The blurry figure nodded without comment.
The man in the black coat then spoke up: "Sir, the business volume of non-human transplants has increased significantly, with a turnover of 60 million star coins and a profit of 20 million star coins."
After these words were spoken, the other three were a little surprised, especially the middle-aged man with a pale face, whose eyes became even deeper in his sunken eye sockets.
"Not bad..." the blurry figure praised, causing different expressions to flash across the faces of several people.
"I can't compare with my two brothers. My profit is around 7 to 8 million star coins." The third fat man said with a smile. His income is very stable, without any ups and downs.
“Hehe…” The woman smiled softly: “A big shot has recently appeared in the Ownerless Galaxy. There has been quite a lot of noise. Many people have come here to hide from the limelight.”
She paused, her eyes moving, and continued: "So, my business is pretty good, with a profit of about 30 million."
thirty million!
The pupils of the other three people contracted and were slightly frozen, this person surpassed the other three.
"Very good..." The blurry figure raised his voice slightly, and he was obviously in a good mood.
"As usual, you keep 25% and hand over 75%..."
The four of them looked at each other and nodded. This has been the rule for a long time. The high-level officials of Tianhuang Star are all handled by the adults, and they are responsible for the lower-level affairs.
The blurry figure pointed at the table, attracting the attention of several people:
"I need to tell you something. There is a problem with the next batch of stowaways. The guy who rose from the ownerless galaxy plundered on a large scale. Half a month ago, he blew up several stowaway ships..."
"Several snakeheads are scared and don't dare to take any business recently..."
"How long do we need to wait?" the woman asked with a frown. Their business needed a steady stream of illegal immigrants to replenish fresh blood.
"I don't know..." The blurry figure uttered these three words rarely.
"Sir, are you talking about what happened half a month ago?" The fat man's pupils contracted and he asked carefully.
"That's right... what 's wrong?" the blurry figure asked.
The fat man shook his head and said with a smile: "Nothing, I just didn't hear it clearly just now."
Boundless anger surged in his heart; he had been deceived!
There is no big shot behind that kid!
Li Yu said before that the big man behind him asked him to kill a person who smuggled here in ten days.
Ten days later, they actually brought the first batch of illegal immigrants after returning from the black market.
But at that time the smuggling boat had been pierced and the human traffickers temporarily stopped their activities.
If the person behind Li Yu is really big enough, he should have known the news long ago and would never have said such a thing ten days later.
Therefore, Fatty San knew that he had most likely been cheated. Although he didn't know how the guy got the gun, it was definitely not as the other party said.
"Damn you junker!"
He half lowered his head to avoid being noticed for his abnormality, gnashing his teeth, his eyes squeezed into the size of green beans and filled with anger!
In the following period of time, the business of the cheongsam girl and the fat man was not affected much. After all, neither of them was the type to exhaust the resources.
The middle-aged man and the man in the coat both looked unhappy, because their business had basically stagnated. Without fresh materials, they could not do transplants.
"Don't worry. The newly emerged kid from the Unowned Galaxy has already caused dissatisfaction in the Empire. He won't be able to stay around for too long..."
The blurry figure soothed them, and several people nodded, with different expressions. Only the cheongsam woman sat back and waited, after all, the pimping business was the easiest to do.
…
After taking a shower, Li Yu felt refreshed as if he were reborn. A large amount of metabolites attached to the surface of his skin, as if he was wrapped in a cocoon.
Her skin is now much whiter, her long hair is gathered behind her head, dripping with water, and her well-proportioned muscles contain explosive power.
After admiring the broken mirror for a while, Li Yu picked up his worn-out clothes and began to wash them carefully.
"boom!"
The door was kicked open and a fat shadow was cast in. Li Yu knew who it was without looking back.
"Mr. San, why are your movements so rough? You are not like the elegant and refined person you usually are." Li had his back to him, naked, and was scrubbing clothes vigorously.
Upon hearing this, Fatty San subconsciously retracted his strength, but then became furious again. Why should he listen to him?
"Garbage man, you are so brave." The fat man said this with a forced smile and kicked the door shut with a bang.
"La la la... Master, the gun is cleaned!" Little Noisy jumped out of the toilet, with a huge mechanical right arm holding a purple magnetic kinetic sniper rifle, and faced off against the Fatty Three.
"Threat target found, warning!" The little noisy little eye turned a dangerous red in an instant, and he raised his sniper rifle, aiming at the fat man.
This gun!
when?
The fat man suddenly stopped where he was, his pupils dilated, beads of sweat streaming down his forehead. Damn, he hadn't had time to replenish the life-saving stuff he had used up last time.
"There are two guys upstairs who are stronger than me. If you dare to shoot, you can't escape!" The fat man warned sternly!
"Xiao Chaonao, how can you point a gun at your friends?" Li Yu waved his hand, and Xiao Chaonao immediately put away the gun and became harmless again.
"What's the matter, Mr. San? Is there something you want to talk to me about?" Li Yu stood up, naked, and looked at the fat man calmly.
Seeing Li Yu being so frank, Fatty San became confused again. How did the gun appear again?
Who sent it to Li Yu silently and without a trace?
Or does he have his own space folding device?
Finally, he smiled and rubbed his hands: "Nothing, just came to see if you live in a suitable place."
