Chapter 003: Is it frustrating

Halfway out, I raised an eyebrow and turned my head to say: "The potion that can grant you superpowers in a short period of time is indeed a bit expensive"

Taking out the white meat previously extracted from the body of that fish monster from my pocket, if barbecuing is for oneself, then this white meat is for another creature inside the body

To notice his actions in such chaotic circumstances and to dare to directly ask afterwards indicates that this person possesses some qualifications

What was the injection you just gave yourself?

This feature is indeed user-friendly

Hearing the woman he liked praise another man in front of him, Xu Wen was naturally displeased and quickly sought to tarnish Zhu Jue's reputation.

Superpower for All

This young man either does not come at all, or when he does appear, he consumes at least the equivalent of 5 ordinary servings. In response, the owner of the barbecue stall is doing everything possible to win him over, hoping to turn him into a regular customer.

The meat strips were quickly grilled, and Zhu Jue held a bamboo skewer in his hand, glancing at a small screen hanging beside the stall, which displayed 11 PM

My charm is simply irresistible

The lines on the face are prominent, but they appear silver-gray, completely different in style from the person in front of me

Ability serum ... ... does it mean a serum that can grant people special abilities

This store has always been managed by the deputy manager, and the principal has seemingly never appeared even once

You are overthinking it; with his physique, isn't he afraid? I think he is just as stunned as you are, only his demeanor is merely blank.

The investigator's action of wanting to leave with the bottle of wine came to a halt

Zhu Jue swiftly took a bottle of wine and placed it on the counter to send over, then directly asked about his confusion.

Zhu Jue wishes to gain weight, partly because his current physique is excessively thin. He wants to quickly regain some flesh, and nothing is better for putting on weight than late-night barbecues.

He turned and left at once

The government would absolutely not want to see such a scene

The investigator leaned against the counter, observing the female bartender who was still in a daze from the earlier incident; her blouse had popped a button due to the vigorous movements.

He is just that kind of person, somewhat reclusive... Looking at him, life must be very difficult, perhaps he still has to go out to work. Every evening, he leaves immediately after finishing work. Why don't you consider me? I am quite free in the evenings!

Zhu Jue naturally could not give it to him, and took a step back to ask.

At this moment, the crowd erupted in a gasp, while Zhu Jue's gaze was fixed on the syringe in the investigator's hand. He had witnessed the entire battle, and the motorcycle rider's surprise attack with the electric drill after binding with the steel cable should have been successful. The investigator was indeed unable to cut the steel cable in the first instance.

Boss, please grill all the lamb skewers over there, as well as the potato slices and the meatballs, I want them all

The blade relied on powerful force to cut through the steel cable, and the investigator quickly grasped the cable that was about to retract on its own after breaking. The fabric at the position of the forearm swelled again, and before the motorcyclist could react, he was forcibly yanked back.

The fragrance that Zhu Jue perceives is completely imperceptible to ordinary people

A mechanical, cold tone emanated from the watch, accompanied by a series of sounds reminiscent of coins falling to the ground as the amount was announced

It will be ready soon

Are you looking at me

Before Jasmine could finish her sentence, Zhu Jue abruptly interrupted and left the shop

A screen appeared above the wristwatch, and Zhu Jue could vaguely see a person's photo displayed on it along with some information

Alright, brother, today I will treat you to two large chicken legs

This word is unrelated to yellow violence from any perspective, so there is only one possibility: the government does not allow this word to appear. ... It is quite normal to think this way; if what that man said could grant people superpowers, even if only for a short time, there would likely still be many who would flock to it.

Moli merely glanced up at the photo, and her attention returned to Zhu Jue.

Due to sweating from cleaning, she has already taken off her uniform and is wearing only a black tank top, her chest trembling slightly

The vendor skillfully threaded the strips of meat onto bamboo skewers, brushed them with oil, and placed them on the grill

I have something to attend to tonight, I apologize

They all need to replenish their energy

The shift schedule here consists of a day shift followed by a night shift, with one day off, and there is no concept of holidays

Zhu Jue suddenly asked, and Jasmine beside him thought that he had agreed to her proposal, a smile appearing at the corners of her mouth

Jasmine recalled the scene from that time, and the conclusion she reached surprised her

Jasmine looked at Zhu Jue, who did not turn back, and then turned to Xu Wen and said

After more than a month of working together, during casual conversations, Xu Wen also learned quite a few things about Zhu Jue, although most of it was fabricated by the latter, there were still some truths.

Put the white meat into one's mouth and chew slowly in front of him

Well, as long as there is nothing wrong

Zhu Juezheng took out his phone to search for the term "ability injection," only to find that there were no entries related to this topic.

At that moment, the female bartender approached Zhu Jue, speaking while patting her chest. And - image - book

Well, the cleaning is almost done. The assistant manager said that someone will come to fix the door tomorrow. What do you think, isn't it strange? It's such a mess here, yet our big boss hasn't shown up yet

The hoarse voice is quite uncomfortable to hear, as he simply reaches forward to take the bamboo skewer from Zhu Jue's hand

Not long after, police cars and ambulances appeared at the entrance of the nightclub. By this time, most of the patrons inside the nightclub had already left, leaving only a few employees, including Zhu Jue, to stay behind and clean up.

Are you angry

What gives you the right?

The blade, stained with blood, pierced through the chest, and the body convulsed a few times before falling silent

Gululu ~

Shaking the bamboo skewer in hand, the other party's head also turned in response

On the other hand, the regular meals consumed daily are simply insufficient to meet the energy expenditure. Each outing for hunting results in energy consumption that quickly leaves him feeling hungry. If he cannot eat more, not only will he not gain weight, but he will instead become increasingly thinner

The investigator glanced around, pursed his lips, said nothing, and simply bent down to pull open the motorcycle's head cover. He raised his left wrist, where there was a uniquely shaped silver watch, aimed it at the face of the person under the head cover, pressed a button on the inside, and immediately several beams of light swept across his face

Jasmine, how come you are here with Zhu Jue? Let me show you the new photos I took, are they handsome?

Oh, the car is quite handsome, but the person is not so impressive. By the way, would you like to go for a drink later? I will treat you.

Give me ... ...

It is time to go home

Looking up, several strange black lines suddenly appeared on the pale yellow cheeks.

Zhu Jue has a keen interest in such matters

A person is standing on the other side of the road, looking at him

This situation is akin to the mutation of one's own arms, a sudden surge in strength

I thought I had found someone I could communicate with, but unexpectedly, it turned out to be a monster

"Get lost... I was telling you, just now when the motorcycle crashed into the store, Zhu Jue was sitting outside the bar, do you know? But in an instant, he flipped in, pulled me down, and it didn't even take 3 seconds... And his expression afterwards, I was so shocked at the time, but he remained very calm, as if... he wasn't afraid at all."

... ...

This has made Zhu Jue almost give up on the initiative of "finding friends"

Boss, please help me roast this as well, apply more sauce, otherwise it will lack flavor... as soon as possible

The investigator seemed rather dissatisfied with this, spat on the corpse on the ground, and then walked straight over to the bar.

Is it time to leave work now

However, after using the injection, his arms clearly experienced a significant enhancement in strength

Eastern Old Town, Class D wanted criminal, rider, arrest completed, reward amount, 80,000 federal coins

Indeed, it has no flavor at all, and I don't even know what kind of meat it is

The important matter that Zhu Jue mentioned is the grills located on the street beneath these buildings

This behavior inadvertently assisted Zhu Jue, causing Mo Li to doubt her own thoughts

Step forward without hesitation

Do not give ... ... even if it means eating with you!

I initially intended to wait for this unknown individual to discard the syringe before picking it up to examine it, but instead, I witnessed him sheathing his knife while simultaneously putting the used syringe back into his pocket

Signs of Mutation

Buzzing

An inexplicable whisper and strange tinnitus suddenly emerged in his mind, Zhu Jue slightly squinted his eyes and turned towards the back.

rustling rustling

Am I really that frightening? I just wanted to invite him for a drink, not to eat him!

Wishing you a good rest... right? My name is Jasmine. Thank you for pulling me down earlier. Now that I think about it, I am terrified at the thought of those glass pieces flying directly at my face.

Hey? Aren't you coming with me...

After consuming several plates of skewers, my mouth was slick with oil, and I felt an uncomfortable fullness in my stomach. I thought to myself that I should be able to gain a few pounds today, and I got up to head back to the grill.

He wants to eat something

Are you employees of this establishment? The police will be coming shortly to handle the situation here; he has damaged some property, and you can all ask the police for compensation... ... Bring me a bottle of liquor, it should be high proof, charge it to the police's account. In fact, if you act quickly, you can hide that motorcycle as well; it would be enough to cover all the losses.

She looked at Zhu Jue, and at this moment, the young man's slender figure appeared somewhat lean and capable.

Is that so? Then you must pay attention

Xu Wen admired her beautiful photo and inadvertently noticed the shop assistant chatting with her friend, so she hurriedly approached them

I am leaving, see you the day after tomorrow

A sudden "howl of hunger" came from his stomach, and Zhu Jue was greeted by a rich aroma. The creature inside him had not eaten for several days and was indeed famished

One by one, the bodies were carried out, and in the end, Xu Wen leaned on the motorcycle and took enough pictures before reluctantly watching it being towed away by the police car

The old town of Ye City features buildings that embody the architectural style of the past, stacked upon one another. Looking up on both sides, one can occasionally see traditional luminous screens instead of the ubiquitous virtual projections found in urban areas.

A loose plaid shirt paired with light blue jeans, wearing slippers, slightly hunched over, his eyes hidden from view, yet one can sense that this guy is staring at him
