Chapter 261: 10.2

"Aw, my foolish trick has been discovered," James Grind said. He didn't seem to be scared at all, and he leaned more. "Since you've caught me now, what are you going to do? Do you want to kill me? You know that my death doesn't benefit you at all."

"True, your insignificant life will not benefit me at all," Long Zhen said, then he suddenly grabbed both James Grind's hand and rolled in. Now he was on top of James. He locked James Grind by using his leg to stop James from moving his leg, and he gripped James' wrist on both sides. 

"But I don't need another agent or assassin coming up to me. I am a busy man. I have no time dealing with little shrimp like you," Long Zhen scoffed mockingly. "Besides, do you think I will get tempted by a pretty boy like you? I am never going to entangle with someone that doesn't benefit me."

Long Zhen took a step back and fish out his cigarette. He lit up one cigar and smoked while sitting on the opposite of James Grind's sofa. "Now get lost before I kill you for real."

James Grind was shocked by how strong and observant this guy was. He was already sure that he got the perfect cover of a one-night-stand partner for Long Zhen. But Long Zhen noticed it immediately. 

"I—I'm not—"

"You still want to deny it?" Long Zhen scoffed. "Your ring has a blade on it. The belt on your waist also has a retractable blade. Your tie has a recorder, and inside your sock, there is cyanide in case you get discovered and caught by your enemy."

Long Zhen puffed out the smoke from his mouth and continued. "So far, you are the most obvious one out of four, have your director not train your first before assigning yourself to me?"

James Grind was shocked when Long Zhen literally listed everything that he had. He felt humiliated, because he really tried his best. Slowly, he broke out of character and pouted. "I—I'm trying, okay!" 

[Pupa: It is still quite baffling that the out of character alarm doesn't ring when you do something so lousy like this. James Grind never pout like that in the original timeline! I want you to get electrified to death! This stupid OOC bell must have been broken!]

[Hmph! Maybe James Grind is meant to be a lousy spy, just like me!] Yunyu protested. [I've tried my best! This is like, my best bet! Now that Long Zhen has discovered my intention, what can I do next?]

[Pupa: At least try harder!]

[That is my hardest! You said it yourself in the second world that I will make a lousy spy! What do you expect? I suddenly become James Bond? I don't even like a woman! How am I supposed to be as skilful as him!]

Long Zhen smiled when James Grind pouted like that, it was cute, indeed. But he was not a green boy who would melt against a cute act. A spy shall never be trusted, so it was best not to fall into that trap.

Long Zhen pointed the door with his chin. "There is the way out, you may leave now before I call my bodyguards, and you will drown in the city lake with a block of cement on your feet."

[Pupa, do I really need to kill Long Zhen? He is the Master of the world, right?]

[Pupa: Yes, he is the Master of the world. But he is also the villain of the world. This world is quite unique. To complete it, you have to either kill Long Zhen or change his way. But Long Zhen's crime is already deep-rooted within this world. It is almost impossible to make him change his path.]

[Despite, what can you do to change his way? Try to seduce him again? He is not like Urduk, whom you can seduce like a hoe!]

[Goddamn it! My strongest weapon doesn't work here!]

James Grind pouted and pointed his finger at Long Zhen. "I will never give up! J—Just you wait!" James Grind got up and walked to the door hurriedly. But he didn't watch his step and tripped by his own leg. "Ouch!"

Long Zhen tilted his head, and he chuckled. "Yeah, I can see that you need more training." Long Zhen commented. "Maybe you want to be trained with my organization instead? I can guarantee that you will be a decent spy."

"I—I will never join your evil organization!" James Grind said. Since Yunyu was already out of character in front of Long Zhen, he stuck out his tongue to mock Long Zhen. "Bweeee!"

James Grind got up and opened the door. He left in a hurry and was arguing with the system.

[Ahhh! This world is frustrating! We've been here for two months, I finally got my chance to assassinate Long Zhen, but it's all in vain now!]

[Pupa: Because you are really lousy at playing spy. You are the antonym of stealth.]

[No need to rub salt on me! At least, tell me about the meters!]

[Pupa: Breakemeter is -30%, and Fatemeter is -20%.]

[Ahhh, can I just skip this world? Where is my free jail card like in monopoly? I don't like this world!]

[Pupa: Even if you restart a hundred times, you will get the same result. Let's just find another way first.]

***

Long Zhen smoked his cigarette while thinking about that young man who turned out to be a spy, just like the rest of them. He had killed four of these spies with his own hand. Long Zhen deemed them to be dangerous. If he spared them, they would find a way to kill plan another way and killed him in the future.

But this young spy. Long Zhen didn't seem to worry about this young spy, and he didn't feel the need of killing him. Because the young man was obviously not a good spy. His trick was very lousy, and he didn't do a good job of hiding his weapons. Though, Long Zhen had to admit that his charm was impressive for sure.

"But those beauties, they are all the same. They are the poison I shouldn't touch," Long Zhen said to himself. People often used beauties to seduce and sabotaged him. But Long Zhen was already aware of every trick in their sleeves.

When that young spy pouted in front of Long Zhen, his heart skipped a bit because the difference between that seducer and that cute, careless young man, it was pleasant to the eyes.

That young man was obviously pretending to be a seduce, while in fact, he was a cute dedicated young man. 

Long Zhen was entertained with that young man, maybe this was just one of a kind entertainment.

Long Zhen laughed and put out his cigar. He looked at the moon outside the windowpane and grinned. "Well, he said that he will never give up. Maybe he will try to assassinate me with something else in the future. Let's just see, this will be interesting."

[Pupa: Ding! Fatemeter increases to -15%!]

[I don't need your stupid Fatemeter! Goddamn this!]
