Chapter 1415 - 856: Niu Ma: So You Really Are Trying to Usurp the Throne
After hanging up, Liu Zheng called Luo Ping again."How’s the rest?"
He showed a bit of concern first.
"Pretty good."
Luo Ping replied politely.
Of course, there was some sincerity in that too.
Even though working for Liu Zheng was far from easy, at least he no longer had to worry about the future of Morrison Primary School.
"Then I’ve got another job for you."
Liu Zheng told him about Shi Yidao.
"Okay, I’ll go right now."
Luo Ping said immediately.
"Can your body handle it?"
Liu Zheng asked.
"I’m already like this. One more time, one less time, doesn’t really matter anymore."
Luo Ping himself had already made peace with it.
Using his ability directly consumed his Vitality. Even though he could recover some of it with good food and rest, it was like a car that had been in a serious crash—no matter how thoroughly you repaired it, it would never be what it used to be.
"I’ll think of a way to get you something that can extend your lifespan later."
Liu Zheng promised.
"Thanks, boss."
Luo Ping said sincerely.
He knew Liu Zheng: once he painted a pie, he would definitely cook it, whether he had to steal it or rob it.
"Mm, do your job well. I’ve got you covered."
Liu Zheng emphasized again.
Among his few underlings, Luo Ping had the worst background, the most experiences, and he worked in the detective line of business, so his thoughts were also the most complicated. When there was time, some talk therapy was still necessary.
After hanging up, he called the next person.
"Liu Zheng, you finally called me back~"
Vampire Sister said happily.
"Yeah, I just fell asleep earlier and only just woke up. Why’d you call me?"
Liu Zheng didn’t say more, so she wouldn’t worry.
"Do you know anyone in the Security Department?"
Vampire Sister asked.
"I do. What’s up?"
"Didn’t I tell you I was going to attend a clan ball?"
Vampire Sister said.
"Yeah, I was wondering why you didn’t contact me last night."
He remembered and said.
"Because the ball got canceled."
Vampire Sister replied.
"Huh? Why?"
Liu Zheng asked in surprise.
"Apparently when they were doing prep work, the Security Department suddenly raided them, then found illegally held blood, and then they all got taken down in one sweep~"
Vampire Sister said.
"Why do you sound kind of happy about it?"
He complained.
"Because I didn’t get caught. They were preparing in the afternoon, and I was still at work then. Hehe~"
Vampire Sister said smugly.
"So wage slaves don’t die from getting busted, huh?"
Liu Zheng joked.
"Yeah, yeah. Anyway, you still haven’t answered my question!"
Vampire Sister raised her voice.
"Didn’t I just say it? I know people. And then?"
"Then help me ask around. They managed to get a message out, saying they were framed, and they hope I can help them."
Vampire Sister said.
"They aren’t even that close to you, right? Why ask you instead of their own family?"
Liu Zheng questioned.
"Because they suspect it was their own family who framed them. Blood Clan families are like that. After all, blood relatives you get from one bite are a cheap bargain; compared to family affection, there’s a lot more scheming and fighting over resources."
When Vampire Sister said this, there was a faint touch of world-weariness in her voice.
"Then why do you want to help them?"
He asked.
If it wasn’t Vampire Sister’s own business, he needed to decide how much effort to put in based on her attitude.
"My parents are dead, my Blood Father is dead, and my brothers and sisters were killed by me. I’ve still got at least a thousand years to live; I need some kind of home, right?"
Vampire Sister said lightly.
"Never thought about developing a few bloodline descendants?"
Liu Zheng asked.
"Being in the Blood Clan isn’t that great. Can’t see Sunshine, have to be picky about what we eat, and we have to sleep in coffins for no reason, or our brains go bad. My brain wasn’t that smart to begin with, and if I develop bloodline descendants, I still have to watch out for them killing their Blood Father. Too much trouble."
Vampire Sister shook her head.
Vampires actually had ways to change their gender, so lower-level Vampires referred to the higher-level Vampire who first embraced them as "Blood Father" regardless of gender.
"If I really have kids, I only want to have them with Liu Zheng, hehe~"
Vampire Sister said again with a giggle.
"Yeah, right. You guys can’t even handle Black Mountain Goat Cub blood and you still want to have kids with me? Don’t let City Hall wipe out the whole family by then."
Liu Zheng rolled his eyes.
"I’d still be willing, hmph!"
Vampire Sister said stubbornly.
"Willing my ass. Just that reason? No other benefits?"
He asked again.
"Of course there are benefits. They’re way richer than me. If I can get them out, they’re willing to pay me three million."
Vampire Sister said.
"And?"
Three million was a lot, but not that much.
"And some stuff only the Blood Clan can use. Even if I told you, you wouldn’t get it. But there’s one thing I’m sure you’d want."
Vampire Sister said.
"What thing?"
Liu Zheng asked curiously.
"Hehe, kiss me first and I’ll tell you."
Vampire Sister acted spoiled.
"Smooch smooch smooch, that enough?"
"Don’t brush me off, I’m not a little dog!"
Vampire Sister got unhappy.
"I am, I’m your big dog. I’ll stand up to be your shield and lie down to be your rocking bed, okay?"
Liu Zheng coaxed her.
"Hehe, Liu Zheng the big dog~"
Vampire Sister called out.
"Woof woof woof, alright, out with it."
He urged her.
"Okay~ They’ve got a small stone slab there, which they found inside a Mummy when they were eating it back then. Don’t you know a Mummy? I figured it might be useful, so I asked them to throw that in for me too."
Vampire Sister said.
"Not bad, you remembered. I’ll give you a compliment for that."
