40: Lin Ming became a eunuch

Meanwhile, elsewhere.

Jiang Che had a fruitful harvest and was returning to Qingteng Mountain Villa with the little white rabbit female lead, while Lin Ming was already completely doubting life, breaking down in tears.

Everything, all of it, must start from the early morning.

...

At eight in the morning, Lin Ming washed up and left directly without even having time to eat breakfast, starting his takeout journey.

The time for the start of school was drawing nearer. Thinking about driving his luxury car to Linjiang University to show off, slapping the faces of various second-generation rich kids, encountering various Campus Belles, and having beauties in his arms, Lin Ming was full of motivation.

In the past, Lin Ming wouldn't even dare to imagine such things.

Now, not only did he dare to think it, but he also dared to do it. The Super Takeout System was his greatest source of confidence.

"Let's set a small goal: first, earn one hundred million!"

With an incomparably excited mood, Lin Ming put on his yellow battle robe and turned to quickly go downstairs.

Arriving downstairs at the residential complex, Lin Ming saw a group of people surrounding his Ferrari, pointing and discussing something.

"Wow, this is actually a Ferrari sports car!"

"Our residential complex actually has such a super luxury car?"

"I didn't notice it before. Could it be that some super rich tycoon moved in recently?"

Listening to the various discussions constantly rising in his ears, Lin Ming felt comfortable, and a smile bloomed on his face.

If he hadn't already accepted an order from the System and triggered a delivery task, he would have definitely wanted to show off to this group of poor wretches!

Suppressing his restless heart that wanted to show off, Lin Ming hummed a little tune and headed towards the electric scooter parked downstairs not far away.

It wasn't that Lin Ming hadn't thought about driving his super sports car to deliver takeout and enjoying that feeling of being the center of attention.

But this thought only appeared for an instant before he quickly rejected it.

The God-level Takeout System gave him tasks with time limits; if he couldn't complete the food delivery task within the specified time, there would be a penalty.

To complete the task within the specified time, it was obviously more suitable to ride an electric scooter to deliver takeout. After all, the little electric scooter was invincible and could handle any terrain, making it more convenient.

Although he didn't know what the System's penalty was, Lin Ming instinctively resisted it deeply. He felt some resentment inside but didn't dare to say another word.

Damn it, what era is this? There's a penalty for not completing a task. What a moronic System!

Although he was a bit unhappy inside, being able to have an Awakening with the System was already a great stroke of luck, so Lin Ming was just complaining a little.

Riding the electric scooter and driving out of the old residential complex, after ten minutes of riding, Lin Ming arrived at the first pickup point: a Wallace burger combo.

After glancing at the delivery information and packing it up, Lin Ming left the burger shop and headed towards the delivery address.

He had been delivering takeout for two months, and Lin Ming was already very familiar with the surrounding terrain, always able to find various shortcuts.

While waiting for the red light, just after Lin Ming parked his electric scooter, an old lady in her seventies or eighties leaning on a cane lay down in front of him under Lin Ming's dumbfounded gaze.

"Ouch, it hurts so much!"

"I'm already an old bag of bones; being hit by you like this is really going to cost me my life!"

"How are you riding that bike? Do you have any civic virtue at all!"

The old lady lay in front of Lin Ming's electric scooter, wailing repeatedly. She soon attracted the attention of passersby, who also began to point at Lin Ming.

After a brief moment of being dumbfounded, Lin Ming quickly regained his senses. His expression turned gloomy, and he was so angry his nose was almost crooked!

He really didn't check the almanac before going out today; he ran into this kind of crappy situation on his very first delivery.

This old woman really had no eye for people; how much money could a loser delivering takeout possibly have?

Although he now had a cash flow of three million, Lin Ming wouldn't just accept defeat in this kind of situation.

"Get up. I didn't hit you; you lay down yourself!"

Lin Ming's face was full of displeasure, his voice low.

"Ouch..."

"You young man, you dare to do it but don't dare to admit it. Are you even a man!"

Hearing Lin Ming say this, the old lady directly started cursing loudly, her face red and neck thick, seemingly very unhappy with Lin Ming's refusal to admit it.

"This young man really has no civic virtue!"

"This old lady is already in her seventies or eighties. Could she possibly be trying to scam you on purpose?"

"Why don't we go to the relevant authorities and check the surveillance footage?"

Listening to the pointing and whispering of the surrounding crowd, although he felt very depressed and stifled inside, Lin Ming had absolutely no choice at this moment but to accept his fate.

It could only be said that this old woman really chose the right time to scam someone.

He was in the middle of a System task. If he went to check the surveillance footage now, the food delivery task would definitely not be completed, and he would face the System's penalty.

Not wanting to experience the System's punishment methods, Lin Ming could only swallow his broken teeth along with his blood.

Getting off the electric scooter, Lin Ming took out his phone and directly scanned a payment of ten thousand yuan for the old lady.

After getting the money, the old lady's face beamed with a bright smile, and she left on her own without needing anyone else's help. The surrounding crowd gradually dispersed, as if nothing had happened just now.

Just then, the green light turned on. Lin Ming didn't suspect anything else, rode his electric scooter, and quickly headed towards the delivery address.

It was only ten thousand yuan at most; the bonus he could get from completing any random food delivery task would be more than that, so it didn't matter!

Comforting himself this way, Lin Ming's depressed mood was finally alleviated.

Filled with indignation, Lin Ming accepted five more takeout orders from the System. Seeing that there was still plenty of time for delivery, he headed towards the first delivery location.

After arriving at the residential complex, Lin Ming opened the delivery box on the back of his electric scooter, and he was instantly dumbfounded.

Damn!

Who had no martial virtue, actually stealing his takeout?

It must be that when he was being scammed just now, some shameless guy secretly took his takeout!

Before Lin Ming could think too much, the System prompt that sounded in his mind instantly made him break down.

"Ding, it is detected that the Host did not complete the delivery task within the specified time. The System is issuing a penalty..."

"Penalizing the Host with a sixty-second Advanced electric current package..."

"System Dad..."

Before Lin Ming could open his mouth to beg for mercy, the System's penalty arrived instantly.

Lin Ming was instantly fried inside and out by lightning. Pale blue electric currents swept across his entire body. In just a split second, Lin Ming's entire skin turned charcoal black under the frantic movement of the electric current.

Lin Ming's eyes rolled back, his body trembled non-stop, his hair stood up one by one, and he was instantly shocked into a daze.

When the sixty-second penalty ended, Lin Ming's body lay straight on the ground, passed out.

The current Lin Ming was just an ordinary person with no strength to truss a chicken, so he naturally couldn't withstand the System's high-voltage electric current penalty.

Time passed minute by minute. After about an hour, a passing pedestrian discovered Lin Ming lying on his back on the ground, called the police immediately, and dialed for an ambulance.

...

"Critical condition! Critical condition!"

Half an hour later, when the ambulance finally arrived late, a group of nurses in white got off, lifted the still-unconscious Lin Ming onto the ambulance, and headed towards Linjiang City First Peoples Hospital.

At the same time, the God-level Takeout System also issued penalties to Lin Ming for not completing the food delivery tasks on time.

Before Lin Ming passed out, he had accepted five food delivery tasks in one go.

Correspondingly, not completing the tasks naturally meant receiving five penalties.

"Ding, it is detected that the Host did not complete the food delivery task within the specified time. Starting penalty..."

"Host's dear brother shortened by half..."

"Host's dear brother shortened by half..."

"Ding, it is detected that the Host no longer has a dear brother..."

"Confiscating the Ferrari super sports car and the three million cash reward obtained by the Host..."

"Penalizing the Host to streak on the street for ten minutes, time limit seven days... (If the Host does not agree, the System will forcefully execute the penalty)"

"Host's IQ reduced by 50..."
