I was completely shocked to see the dust in the room disappear in a flash.
"This room automatically collects dust, which serves as a warning to outsiders who might harbor ill intentions..."
The fat boss spoke in a deep voice.
"remind?"
I was stunned for a moment.
"You mean... your house can also sense malice?"
I was completely stunned. To be honest, I think very few people besides me and Lei Jijian could sense the hostility coming from the other side.
As for the Thunder Strike Sword, as a sword spirit, its perception ability is indeed slightly stronger than mine.
But did this boss apply this ability to the entire house?
Not this room, but the entire hotel.
He even deliberately let the room accumulate dust to create the feeling of emptiness that we had just experienced.
Only in this way can the boss ensure his own safety.
Thinking about this, I actually think this fat guy is quite smart, not as simple-minded as he looks.
"It's not that the house can sense things; it's that I've learned by observing and learning from others."
The fat boss grinned, his expression suggesting he had ill intentions.
Two rows of yellow teeth were neatly arranged in his mouth, and he blinked his slightly protruding eyes slightly.
"If someone comes with bad intentions, the lights will dim as soon as they enter, and there will be more and more gray dust."
However, if it's a genuine transaction, the house will be cleaned up on its own.
I have to ensure my own safety, otherwise I won't be able to defend this little corner of the world.
The boss's voice was very cautious, which only made me more astonished.
The girl and I made eye contact, and I saw the disbelief in her eyes.
This boss looks slovenly, yet he has this skill.
No wonder he was able to open a shop in a place like this; he's a very shrewd and unassuming person.
At that moment, the Thunder Strike Sword was also floating lightly in my mind.
“Master, this fat man doesn’t seem simple. His energy is very stable, as if he has been trained. It seems that all of it is gathered in his body and forms a large sphere.”
At this moment, Yiyi was also pointing at the boss's belly.
"Boss, you're so fat, it doesn't match your ability to read people at all. Someone as capable as you should be very agile, shouldn't you?"
Yiyi's words really stung the boss.
I noticed a flash of displeasure in the fat man's eyes, but then he took a closer look and suddenly laughed.
He patted his round belly, as if he were beating a drum, his belly button was exposed.
“In the past, when I fought with people, I would always get punched in the stomach, and I gradually developed calluses.”
Don't be fooled by the bumps on my stomach; they're even thicker on my back.
These guys keep coming here to collect debts or demands for payment. I can't beat them in a fight, so I can only defend myself. But they can't kill me anyway.
The boss rolled up his sleeves, revealing his thick arms covered in calluses.
In some places, there are even some dark scars.
When I heard what the boss said, my heart tightened.
He said "they" couldn't kill him, which I can understand.
Otherwise, there wouldn't have been such a contract where the living perish and the dead live.
In other words, this boss was indeed a dead man.
But I really don't know much about the debt collectors she mentioned.
It's not like this boss ended up like that grandfather and grandson who owed money before, getting beaten up in their home.
If he really owed money, shouldn't he have just run away from here?
Even if I end up in some remote wilderness, at least I'm safe. What's there to worry about? This is the kind of place where I can unleash my full potential.
And I dare to guess that this boss's life was also taken by these people.
The reason this person is still able to sit here must be because he does indeed have some ability.
The girl and I took a closer look, and sure enough, her skin looked as rough as old tree bark, while the fat was actually firm muscle.
That belly is so big, it's all calluses and muscle.
I couldn't help but swallow again.
“Then this room of yours…” I pointed to the bright and spacious hall.
Just a moment ago it was pitch black, but now it is suddenly clean and bright, just like a typical hotel on land.
I always felt this was a little unreal.
"This is something I can control..."
The chubby boss stood up unsteadily, walked to the wall, and tapped it with his hand.
But I heard the sound of a vacuum!
But within that sound came the same cry of a child who had just been on the third floor!
Without further hesitation, I got straight to the point.
If we waste too much time with him, I'm afraid the owner will trap us all in this hotel.
I should be able to see his current abilities clearly, if he didn't have some tricks or tools.
He certainly couldn't have run a shop in this desolate place for so long, and still be standing in front of me in this manner.
Immediately, the chubby boss looked at me with a puzzled expression, as if asking me something.
"By the way, sir, we were introduced by Lan Jia."
It wasn't about collecting debts, or anything else.
Blue armor.
As I spoke, I reached behind me to retrieve the handwritten letter Lan Jia had given me from my backpack.
The boss was taking his time, but when he heard the words "blue armor," he suddenly seemed to become alert.
I noticed his eyes widen instantly.
Even his swollen eyelids were no longer swollen, and his voice suddenly rose a few decibels.
"Blue Armor? Bastard! That devil! He actually dared to mention me!"
The boss's attitude changed drastically all of a sudden, as if Lan Jia had wronged him.
However, I sensed that this boss was also very afraid of Blue Armor.
His voice was filled with both anger and grievance.
The girl and I were both startled by the fat man's reaction, and the Thunder Strike Sword was shouting in my head.
“Master, it seems that Blue Armor has a story with him.”
I nodded. At that moment, the fat boss got so angry that he spun around twice on the spot, his legs shaking, and even the flesh on his belly was shaking.
He was muttering curses under his breath.
"That's so damn shameless. I told him beforehand not to introduce people to me casually, especially people like you who are involved in contracts..."
When I heard this, I was almost stunned.
What do you mean? Doesn't this boss know that we are the two parties to the contract?
According to him, it must have been Lan Jia who introduced us here with just one sentence.
But regardless, if the contract actually takes effect, the boss should be the beneficiary.
