Chapter 1291: How Many People Are You Going To Kill Tonight
Mag looked at Constantine, who was dressed up neatly and had a bouquet of flowers in his hand. Suddenly, he pitied this devoted man who came every day to ask about Shirley.
What is love? Why do people live for it and die for it?
However, Mag was in no position to comment about things like this. After all, even though Shirley was a drag queen, she had never behaved in a very feminine and gentle way on purpose. Moreover, her sexual orientation and who she liked had nothing to do with Mag.
“The first unfortunate case before the New Year.” Harrison sighed as he passed by Constantine.
The nosy crowd all looked sympathetically at Constantine. This love that had not even sprouted was killed mercilessly just like that. What a pity.
Constantine quickly put his sadness away, and smilingly said, “It’s alright, let me reintroduce myself. I am—”
“I’m not interested.” Shirley turned away coldly and walked to the kitchen to start working.
“I...” Constantine watched Shirley’s back for a long time before he closed his open mouth slowly as his shoulders slumped in despair.
Anna watched Constantine with sympathy. This uncle had been coming over every day to ask about the news of Big Sister Shirley, so he had to really like her a lot. However, she didn’t seem interested in him.
“That uncle is like a dog,” Amy commented softly beside Anna as she licked her ice cream.
“What dog?” Anna asked.
Amy thought for a while, and said, “A single dog[1].”
It’s okay. Since Miss Shirley is back, at least I would still have a chance. I’m going to take it slow. Constantine quickly regained his fighting spirit. He let out a confident smile, went to the table he always sat at, and started ordering.

“Shanshan, I did it!” Rena called out excitedly when she returned to the office.
“Did it?” Shanshan lifted her head in bewilderment. As she looked at Rena’s beaming smile, she jumped up from her chair, and grabbed Rena’s hands excitedly. “Rena, have you succeeded in getting a job in Mamy Restaurant?”
“Mm-hmm. I’m hired.” Rena nodded vigorously.
“That’s great!”
The two ladies hugged each other, and jumped around excitedly in the office.
“What’s all this noise about during working hours?” A cold and deep voice came from the door.
Shanshan and Rena jumped and quickly let go of each other as they looked, flustered, at the middle-aged woman dressed in a black maxi dress who was standing at the door.
Bam!
The woman walked in and dropped a thick stack of accounts on the table as she coldly said to Rena, “Rena, look at these accounts. Didn’t I tell you to write down the time of all the expenses and revenue? Look at how many of them you did not fill in. Also, what are all these nonsense notes? I paid you to work. If you can’t even do something so small, get out of here today!”
“Yes, Boss. I won’t be coming to the office from tomorrow onwards. Please look for someone better suited for the job,” Rena said in a relaxed manner. She waved to Shanshan and turned to walk out of the door.
“You...” The boss watched in shock as Rena turned and walked away. She obviously did not expect this little administrative staff member, who was usually timid and soft-spoken, would actually quit on her without any hesitation.
“Right, just a reminder. About those accounts, you have to ask your dear younger siblings. They might know better about the expenses with the notes and those without the timestamps,” Rena told the boss as she paused in her steps and turned back to face her, after which she turned to leave.
After walking out of the office door, Rena turned back for one last look. She had been in this place for three years, and now she would turn away without any hesitation. At the moment she turned around, she felt relieved, and it felt as though even the sunset had gotten brighter.
Although she was deducted half a month’s salary, she should be able to survive with the salary that came in just a few days ago until she got her salary from Mamy Restaurant next month if she scrimped and saved. It was 3,500 in cash. When she received her pay next month, she would be able to buy new clothes for her mother.

After Connie got through nine levels of the prison easily with a pot of “Buddha jumps over the wall”, she was finally surrounded by prison guards and brought to Rex. After the prison guards had left, she went up, and asked, “Master, what are we learning today?”
“You’ve learned quite a lot during this period of time. Tonight, go kill some people,” Rex said absent-mindedly as he took the ‘Buddha jumps over the wall’, opened the lid, and took a deep sniff. He smiled with satisfaction.
“Kill?” Connie was slightly shocked. She cowered little as she said, “I don’t know how to.”
“All the skills you’ve learned from me are used to kill. If you’re not going to kill people, are you going to slaughter chickens?” Rex took a sip of the soup and smiled.
Connie shrugged, and a little innocently said, “I haven’t even slaughtered a chicken before.”
“The people who were out to kill you in the past have already set their eyes on Mamy Restaurant. If you don’t kill them, they will find you sooner or later, and then they will kill you. Otherwise, they might bring you back before killing you.”
“What’s the difference?”
“You either die earlier or later.”
“Those people killed my father and my tribesmen. I want to kill them to take revenge.”
Rex pulled out a short dagger from somewhere, and threw it on the table. “It’s in the second courtyard of the third alley at the west road of the northern part of the city. There are a total of five orcs. They are around the 6th and 7th-tier. If you’re fast enough, you can slit their throats before they wake up. If you’re not fast enough, any one of them can kill you easily.”
“You’re really making me go...” Connie was a little worried.
Rex put his spoon down, looked Connie in her eyes, and asked, “Didn’t you become my student so that I could help you take revenge?”
Connie was slightly taken aback. She shook her head after looking into Rex’s eyes.
She took the dagger and held it tightly in her hand. She turned to walk to the door, and paused in her steps again as she turned back to ask Rex, “Master, how do I get to the west road of the northern part of the city? Where do I start counting the third alley from? Is the second courtyard the second one from the left, or the second one from the right?”
“Pffft~”
Rex, who was drinking the soup, spat it out. He looked at the wasted soup, and frustratedly told Connie, “Can’t you use some brains?!”
Connie pouted. What can I do? I’m in despair too.
“Give me a moment, I will bring you there.” Rex sighed. He could only take on the role of her driver for the time being so that Connie would be able to find her target.
