154: Another terrible omen! Arrived at the villa!
Longhai City Central Hospital, second floor of the cafeteria.
Seven in the morning.
Su Yun, who had just sat down, heard the mechanical alert tone of the system pop up in his mind.
[Ding! Check-in successful today! It's another exciting day!]
[Check-in Reward: Agility +1, Stamina +2...]
[Today's Fortune Prediction: Minor Good Fortune accompanies Major Bad Fortune!]
Su Yun: ???
The daily check-in rewards were as usual.
Su Yun, whose attributes had already been enhanced by the system in all aspects to the level of a Super Saiyan, still couldn't maintain his composure when he heard "Minor Good Fortune accompanies Major Bad Fortune."
Yesterday was Major Bad Fortune: a sack of mushrooms boiled in hot pot, which poisoned and confused all the Police Officers of the Longhai City Police Bureau.
And now... the matter hasn't even been fully resolved yet?
Why... not only is there Minor Good Fortune today, but it's a buy-one-get-one-free deal with an added Major Bad Fortune?
Seriously... the Major Bad Fortune could totally be left out, okay?
Su Yun wanted to cry but had no tears.
Meanwhile, Director Chen and He Zhendong, sitting opposite him, were extremely cautious in their every move.
Just now, even when Su Yun wanted to help them ladle soup, they politely refused... Director Chen grinned and said with a smile: "Brother Su Yun, eat more!"
"Once you're full... I will personally lead all the Police Officers of the Police Bureau to send you off!"
β β [Pfft! What does Director Chen mean? Is he going to personally carry out the execution?]
β β [Hahaha... I feel like Director Chen is doing this on purpose...]
β β [Good heavens, they praised how delicious it was while eating, but now they won't admit it...]
β β [Director Chen: Kill them to silence them, must kill them to silence them!]
Wang Fan burst out laughing, yet felt terrified: "Director Chen, please don't joke around!"
"My Brother Su is a really good person. Leaving aside the matter of being poisoned or not... just tell me, was the mushroom hot pot delicious or not?"
As the saying goes: deliciousness is either a one-time thing or countless times.
If he weren't worried about fighting Ultraman monsters again after eating it, Director Chen would genuinely miss that flavor.
He Zhendong said: "It was a misunderstanding, everyone shouldn't take it to heart. Just be more careful in the future!"
"I believe... Comrade Su Yun didn't do it intentionally!"
β β [Right! He did it on purpose!]
β β [Hahaha! The Old Comrade always says the nicest things!]
β β [Next, I look forward to the performance of Old Comrade He...]
β β [Picking up junk at a villa, what's so good about that? It won't give Brother Su a windfall, will it?]
β β [Bets are open, brothers! Place your bets, no takebacks!]
β β [How can a gambling addict always lose? I'm betting all my wife's lipstick! I'm betting on an atomic bomb!]
Everyone drank the soup happily; with a bowl of millet porridge in their stomachs, all past grievances were forgotten with a smile.
Fatty Zhang, still slightly dazed, got into the Police Bureau car personally driven by Bureau Chief Chen.
In his life... he ate big fish and big meat every day, and tasted delicacies from land and sea daily... To be honest, it was the first time he willingly and heartily ate poisonous mushroom hot pot!
That feeling of floating and wanting to ascend to heavenβhey, don't mention itβit felt like he was high... In the passenger seat, Officer Hong glanced at Su Yun, Wang Fan, and Fatty Zhang sitting in the back.
"Big Fatty, I'm telling you, if anything happens, report it, call the police."
"Thank you for your concern, Officer Hong... I will..."
Fatty Zhang was full of anticipation.
It was a rare opportunity to pick up junk with his idol, a rare chance to experience the joy of ordinary people... 'Sigh...'
Seeing the eager look on Fatty Zhang's face, Officer Hong sighed inwardly.
This Big Fatty is truly carefree... How is it that he still hasn't realized the seriousness of the situation?
...On the other side, in the military off-road vehicle, were Zheng Jianfeng, Regiment Commander Hu, and He Zhendong.
The atmosphere was strange, and Regiment Commander Hu couldn't help but ask again: "Commander He, are you truly planning to continue this?"
They only met for dinner the first time and ended up with poisonous mushroom hot pot... Who could predict what would happen when they stayed together in the villa next?
Zheng Jianfeng said while driving: "Commander He, it's still not too late to regret it now!"
Once he got out of the car and joined the junk-collecting team, the meaning would be completely different.
Both men were trying to persuade him, genuinely wanting the best for Commander He.
If you said: the Commander just wants to pick up some junk and cultivate his sentiment... then fine!
But Commander He, despite his age, insisted on seeking excitement and was specifically interested in Su Yun!
He Zhendong waved his hand; he understood what the two of them were thinking: "You two are just timid!"
"Before making my decision, I already looked into Comrade Su Yun; he is very insightful and has a great personality!"
"Although there might be danger... this time we are at a villa, it will be much safer..."
"Besides... didn't you coordinate with the Police Bureau to set up a top-tier sniper team in the outer perimeter?"
It could be said that every member of the sniper team was an elite, a top-notch talent.
With these snipers present, they should have been completely reassured and safe... but... for some reason, the thought alone made people extremely uneasy!
Su Yun alone managed to knock out all the Police Officers of the Longhai City Police Bureau... As for those dozens of snipers... how should one put it? Su Yun was simply not someone who could be countered by sheer numbers or elites.
This kid... is essentially a super-capacity TNT explosive that could go off at any moment... If it doesn't explode, fine, but once it does, everyone is finished... "Sigh..."
Regiment Commander Hu gave a wry smile. Knowing that persuasion was useless, he could only say: "Commander He, please be extremely careful."
"Mhm... I have my limits..."
He Zhendong nodded.
The vehicle arrived at the villa area in the prime central location of Longhai City.
Looking around, countless villas were situated across the entire area.
The decoration styles were diverse, featuring swimming pools, gardens, fountains, and more... Every single piece of decoration, no matter where you looked, fully embodied the word "luxury."
β β [Holy crap! So this is what a villa looks like!]
β β [First time seeing a villa in my life, what an eye-opener!]
β β [It's different from what I imagined, so big and so stylish...]
β β [Hey? How did you guys get into my house? Please leave!]
β β [The life of the rich! A luxurious villa like this must cost tens of millions, right?]
β β [Seriously ridiculous... such a great villa given to a trashy woman!]
β β [Brothers, I really want to be a kept man! Being a kept man is great these days!]
β β [I used to look down on kept men, thinking they were garbage... Now that I'm suffering the brutal beatings of society every day, I finally understand: I was such a hypocrite back then!]
The one hundred million fans in the livestream room saw the full view of the villa and couldn't hold back.
It was the dream house of countless commoners and shut-ins... With it, would they still worry about not finding a girlfriend? With it, would they still worry about not getting a wife?
Fatty Wang Fan hugged an ivory-like decoration at the entrance and asked: "Big Fatty! This thing must cost at least a thousand or eight hundred, right?"
Fatty Zhang glanced at it and said nonchalantly: "That's real ivory, carved by a master artisan. It cost about 100,000 when I bought it..."
100,000!?
Wang Fan was instantly stunned: "Holy crap, this small thing costs 100,000 yuan!?"
He had initially planned to secretly sneak it away... Next, Fatty Zhang, as the villa owner, introduced more to Wang Fan: "See those bottles in the fountain? Each bottle costs 10,000 yuan... There are twelve in total..."
"And that small potted plant decoration next to you, don't let its plain appearance fool you... it's actually carved from Phoebe zhennan wood..."
Everyone: ... Anything casually picked up is worth money!?
I have to say... the life and taste of the nouveau riche are incomprehensible!
To use Fatty Wang Fan's words: "The stench of money! I smell a very, very strong stench of money!"
"I really don't understand what you rich people think... you all love collecting handicrafts when you have money?"
Hearing this, Fatty Zhang couldn't be bothered to explain.
He chuckled and said: "Fatty, do you want to take these handicrafts with you?"
"Just give me your position and your Photographer's camera..."
"You can take away as many handicrafts from the villa as you want!"
Wang Fan: ???
Instantly, his eyes widened, and his head buzzed!
Is this... the power of cash?
Is this the might of the power of cash?
To replace his Photographer position, he actually... "Hmph..."
Fatty Wang Fan snorted coldly and quickly moved his plump hand away from the ivory: "Fatty Zhang, I'm going to tell you the truth..."
"I have never met anyone as utterly shameless as you!!"
"What do you take me for? What do you take My Brother for?"
"You want to spend money to buy my Photographer position?"
"I'm telling you... no way!"
