Chapter 69 Rat Tide

Marvel Office

Li Qingyue yawned as he came down from upstairs. Hearing the gunshots outside, he couldn't help but "tsk tsk" twice.

"It's not over yet?"

"Alas, there's nothing I can do. Who let the Hand be dealt with all of a sudden? Now more than a dozen gangs are fighting every day to grab territory. Even I was almost hit by a few stray bullets. If Connor hadn't helped me block the bullets, I guess the grass on my grave would have been three feet high now." Walter shook the bun in his hand fiercely and said helplessly.

"By the way, Connor, I seem to have seen a girl coming to you recently. Are you in love?" Li Qingyue teased.

"Boss, I don't plan to fall in love until I'm fully evolved."

"When you're fully evolved, I guess this girl will run away with someone else, so you must seize it. By the way, this is the employee ID card. Although you exchanged it from Walter, you are no longer a robot now. It's up to you whether you join or not." Li Qingyue left the employee ID card on the table.

Connor looked at his work badge and then at Walter.

"If you want to join, join. If you don't want to join, don't join. It's okay. You decide."

With Walter's support, Connor decided to join. In this way, the firm added another employee.

"By the way, Walter, since Connor has joined, you should take him to customize a few sets of clothes as usual, and then you can each buy a car to make it more convenient to travel."

"Okay, boss, thank you, boss, you are generous!"

"By the way, how is your blood orchid?" Li Qingyue suddenly thought of it and asked.

"It has been successfully cultivated, but I found that this blood orchid will emit a hormone during its growth. This hormone is not perceptible to us humans, but other animals can clearly feel it, and this hormone has a fatal attraction to them."

"This is your explanation to me!!!" Constantine's angry voice sounded, and Walter was so scared that he quickly hid behind Connor.

"What's going on?" Li Qingyue asked puzzledly.

"It's uninhabitable now. It's full of stray cats, rats, snakes, bugs, etc. I suspect all the rats in Hell's Kitchen have gathered here." Constantine said unhappily.

"It's just rats, snakes, and bugs. It's no big deal."

"Boss, you'll know when you go and see."

"Is it really that outrageous?"

Li Qingyue opened the door of the apartment. The first floor was fine, clean and tidy, but when he came to the second floor, he suddenly saw a bunch of rats attacking a glass cover, and the glass cover was the blood orchid.

A pile of rats stacked layer by layer, the stench and the dense appearance, not only made Li Qingyue's intensive phobia act up, but also made him retch uncontrollably. He quickly left the second floor.

Constantine saw Li Qingyue running back and said, "Boss, now you know how angry I am. When I opened the door, a bunch of rats came like a tide. If you saw this scene, you would be disgusted even if you were not afraid!"

"You are right. Walter gives you one day to clean up the whole apartment for me and disinfect it. If you find a cockroach, you will be fined 100 points. These 100 points will be divided among Richard and the other three."

"No, why is there a share for Richard? He doesn't live here."

"Don't worry about whether he lives here or not. Anyway, if you don't deal with it for me within one day, you can wait for your points to be divided by them!"

Walter left with his head down. Seeing this, Connor stuffed two buns into his mouth and followed him.

"I will also go to see if there is anything I can help with." Constantine said, looking at the backs of the two.

Li Qingyue shook his head helplessly. Suddenly, the scene of the rat tide just now came to his mind unconsciously, which frightened him directly.

This scene was too horrifying, just like a game he had played before, called A Plague Tale: Innocence, which had a rat tide scene, but it was just a game, but what Li Qingyue had just experienced was a real rat tide, which was what made it so horrifying.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Qingyue suddenly saw white gas filling the apartment building.

"What the hell!" Li Qingyue shouted, and rushed directly into the apartment building, only to see Constantine and the others wearing gas masks, constantly spraying white smoke.

"What are you doing!"

"Boss, why are you here? Didn't you ask us to kill these rats? So I developed these gases specifically to kill rats, snakes, cockroaches and all kinds of insects. Look, they are almost dead." Walter explained, and then Li Qingyue saw the dead rats all over the floor after he reminded him.

"It's disgusting. Get rid of these corpses."

"Don't worry, boss. I've made corpse powder. It will turn these mouse corpses into a pool of water in a few seconds."

"What about the water? What are you going to do with it, great inventor!"

"Just pour it into the sewer. This corpse water has no smell. It's almost the same as ordinary water."

"Whatever. Get it done as soon as possible. I even suspect that someone has called the fire."

"Don't worry, boss. Most of them are dead. Only the stray cats are left. But Connor said he wanted to adopt them, so I didn't develop poison gas to kill cats. Now we just need to collect these corpses and sprinkle corpse powder on them."

"Then hurry up and collect them!"

"Hehe, why don't you help us, boss? We are really too busy."

Li Qingyue had no choice but to help. Finally, after spending a whole hour, he collected all the bodies of rats, cockroaches, snakes and various insects on the top of the manhole cover, and then sprinkled the corpse powder.

This pile of corpses was like a foam box that encountered fire, and it was constantly dissolved into clear water and flowed from the sewer to the sea.

"Huh~ Finally cleaned up, the next step is to disinfect, which is also very simple."

"Hmph, Constantine, go to Old Jack to buy some daily necessities again, throw all these away, and then Connor, since you want to adopt these stray cats, wash them for me and teach them to go to the toilet in the litter box. If I find them urinating and defecating anywhere, I will throw them all away."

"Boss, don't worry, I will take good care of them."

"Okay, I want to see you all clean up before dinner, understand?"

Several people nodded repeatedly, Constantine and Connor went to find Old Jack, one to buy a litter box, cat litter, cat food, etc., and the other to buy a new batch of daily necessities.

Because these are ready-made in Old Jack's warehouse, they were quickly loaded and set off.

At this time, Walter had also disinfected the entire apartment building. As for the stray cats, they were locked in iron cages. Even in the iron cages, they still stared at the blood orchid in the glass cover.
