Chapter 451: Got ganked again, perfect attendance, don’t subscribe, currently fixing 2

Liu Zheng looked at his bare upper body and shiny thighs, and couldn’t help but ask.

"How is that possible? The guests who come to our bathhouse all have certain statuses, how could they dress like this to greet the guests?"

Bird Claw Man said without hesitation.

"So what is this about?"

"Oh, this is just a personal hobby. Anyway, there won’t be any guests coming here, so it doesn’t matter."

Bird Claw Man said nonchalantly.

"Alright, well then. By the way, what is your code name?"

"Oh, I’m called Elder Qing. Remember that, and if anything happens in the bath, just report my name."

Bird Claw Man said.

Elder Qing refers to a hand of tiles in Mahjong that consists only of old man tiles (one of each suit) and honor tiles.

"And that would solve the problem?"

"Then you’ll die a bit happier."

Elder Qing chuckled.

"Heh."

Liu Zheng’s mouth twitched slightly.

Indeed, seeing this guy’s attire, I shouldn’t have had any expectations of him.

"Let’s go, I’ll take you to your uncle."

Elder Qing jumped up, grabbed the doorframe, and then closed the small door down to the size of a palm.

"Are you allowed to leave your post during work hours?"

"If it were someone else, I would definitely say no. But you gave money, so for sure I can, otherwise how would I make a little extra on the side?"

Elder Qing said casually.

"Uh..."

Liu Zheng felt that the situation at the Hundred Ghosts Bathhouse was different from what he had imagined.

From Jing Zi’s experience, he thought the Hundred Ghosts Bathhouse was supposed to be a place with strict rules, where even slight transgressions would be punished.

But looking at this Elder Qing, it seems the work discipline here is quite relaxed?

"Stick close to me later, don’t wander around, don’t stare. If something goes wrong, don’t expect me to protect you."

After giving his instructions, Elder Qing walked forward on his own.

"Alright."

Liu Zheng replied and followed closely behind him.

"Sir, this is the Hundred Ghosts Bathhouse."

It took a long while for Niu Daji to bring Liu Zheng to their destination.

As the leading bathhouse among the top ten on Bathhouse Street and the oldest bathhouse on the street, Hundred Ghosts Bathhouse was not located in the center of Bathhouse Street but was built separately on a large plot of land to the east.

However, even so, the sedans and rickshaws passing by were still incessant, and even during the daytime, the lights were still on.

"Quite impressive, isn’t it."

Liu Zheng commented as he looked at the nearby Hundred Ghosts Bathhouse.

It was a multi-tiered building, with the largest base at the bottom and diminishing in size towards the top.

At the very top, there was only a lookout that was the size of a restroom.

The building materials appeared to be pure wood, with protruding triangular structures painted gold around it, and the main walls were painted red, with green tiles laid on the flying eaves.

Due to the age of the paint, there were some peeling and stains, but this contrast of gold, red, and green not only didn’t look tacky, it actually conveyed a sense of noble grandeur.

It must be said, the person who designed this building was indeed a master of aesthetics.

Liu Zheng admired the Hundred Ghosts Bathhouse for a few more moments, feeling a strange sense of familiarity as if he had seen similar buildings in various animations.

"The doctor will also come later, just wait nearby and be ready to assist us at any time."

He instructed.

"Alright."

Niu Daji quickly responded.

"By the way, in helping me against Granny Tang, won’t your family be retaliated against?"

Liu Zheng remembered to ask.

"Don’t worry, sir, I’ve already severed ties with my family. As long as my family doesn’t help me, even Granny Tang can’t touch my family members."

Niu Daji said emotionally.

These days, bosses who think about their subordinates’ families are really too few.

"You can do that? Who exactly is this powerful person that your family’s ancestors associated with?"

He asked curiously.

"I don’t know, sir. It seems that from some generation on, we were not allowed to mention that person’s name anymore, and afterwards we completely lost any information."

"But every few years, our family gets notified, then someone comes to check on our situation."

Niu Daji scratched his head as he spoke.

"Checking on the situation..."

Liu Zheng looked perplexed.

If it were in reality, this sounds quite normal.

But in the Metropolis, it kind of feels like a ranch owner counting his herd of cattle."

"Sir, what’s wrong?"

Niu Daji asked, puzzled.

"Nothing. Alright, I’m off."

Liu Zheng shook his head and walked towards the Hundred Ghosts Bathhouse.

Along the way, he drew countless gazes.

After all, other guests were either carried in sedans or in cars, only he was walking.

Those sticky glances coming from behind the sedan curtains were like the tongues of predators, licking Liu Zheng’s Perception, making him extremely uncomfortable.

His intuition told him that he could sever these Perceptions by touching them with his murderous aura.

But that would make too much noise and be detrimental to Liu Zheng’s subsequent actions.

So for now, he could only endure it.

"Just look, just look. I’ll deal with you all once I’ve taken care of my business."

Liu Zheng thought fiercely.

He arrived at the front door of the Hundred Ghosts Bathhouse but did not enter, instead directly circling to the back of the bathhouse.

The back of the bathhouse had red walls, and after a careful search, he finally found a small door no bigger than a palm in a corner.

Liu Zheng squatted down and knocked on the door.

"Who is it? What do you want?"

A muffled voice came from inside.

"Hello, I am Elder Qing’s nephew; he asked me to find him here."
