Chapter 6: I, the Pigeon Killer
Mo Fei was shocked.
It was his first time seeing a special external item recognized by the system.
Milk full of Vital Essence?
What the hell?
Mo Fei looked at Quintana.
"What are you looking at?" Quintana said calmly, with an air of nonchalance, "Drink it! Didn't you want milk? It took me a lot of effort to get it for you."
Mo Fei frowned, realizing that things were not simple.
But the system said it could enhance his physique and wasn't poisonous, so… smelling the rich milky aroma, Mo Fei took a small sip.
It was rich and smooth, a silky sensation, enjoyed by all.
There was a kind of milk that glided over the tongue and filled the heart with its richness… delicious!
And after drinking it, Mo Fei felt a warm current flowing through his body, which should be the physique-enhancing effect the system mentioned.
"Can I have a refill?" Mo Fei hesitated for a moment before asking the most embarrassing question of his life.
Mo Fei swore he wasn't indulging in the rich, smooth taste of the milk, but rather coveting its physique-enhancing properties.
"No more. This is an exclusive limited edition. How can there be refills? Today's supply is already sold out. What you just drank was the last bit. If you want more, wait until tomorrow!" Quintana rolled her eyes. "But it will cost money tomorrow."
She made an exception to give Mo Fei a cup of milk today mainly because he was good-looking, and she wanted to tease him, but she didn't expect the teasing to fail, and Mo Fei shamelessly asked for a refill... But she had to make a living, so she couldn't keep giving it away for free.
"Alright!" Mo Fei said with regret, taking out a tissue to wipe the milk from the corner of his mouth. "Now that the injury is treated, who will be paying the bill?"
Quintana looked at Smith, and Smith looked at Quintana.
The most dreaded thing was the sudden silence in the air... Mo Fei's faint smile slowly disappeared. "What... does this mean?"
Even if she bought him a cup of milk, not paying was unacceptable!
What kind of milk was worth thousands of U.S. dollars a cup?
"Don't you still have five thousand U.S. dollars?" Quintana frowned slightly, looking at Smith.
"Cough, only the top 100 U.S. dollars are real; the rest is paper," Smith said shamelessly.
"Fuck!" Quintana immediately cursed. "So, you've always wanted to get something for nothing?"
"Just consider it a loan; I'll pay you back next time," Smith said, shrugging.
He was so poor he donated blood and sperm. What money did he have?
These days, being a killer isn't easy!
I, the pigeon killer; I, have no emotions; and, no money!
Listening to them argue, Mo Fei's head started to ache. He tapped on the table. "I say, you two, you can argue anytime, but not paying is not an option! Can you hurry up? I still need to go home and sleep!"
Quintana once again gently greeted the females in Smith's family, and had no choice but to pay out of her own pocket, taking out the private savings she had accumulated with great difficulty.
"How much?"
"Medical fees, house call fees, late-night outing compensation, a total of 1200 U.S. dollars. Your promised triple fee, so 3600 U.S. dollars," Mo Fei said with a smile.
"So expensive!" The goddess looked at the small amount of money in her wallet with a pained expression, then looked pitifully at Mo Fei. "Can I get a discount? Next time you come here for milk, I can give you a discount too!"
"Sorry, no!" Mo Fei said expressionlessly.
Although I am a pigeon Doctor, I also have no emotions, and even less money!
Even for a goddess, a discount is impossible!
The goddess sighed helplessly and paid the full amount.
Mo Fei nodded in satisfaction, packed his medical kit, and smiled at Quintana. "If you need help again in the future, remember to call me."
"Vampire, I, Quintana, would rather be shot to death or bleed to death than ask you for treatment again!" Quintana said angrily.
"Alright!" Mo Fei shrugged. Earning over three thousand U.S. dollars for a late-night trip, couldn't the goddess be allowed to throw a tantrum?
Mo Fei and Mindy were about to leave when they suddenly heard a baby crying.
Mo Fei frowned, stopped, and looked towards the source of the sound.
A sturdy canvas bag.
Quintana quickly went to soothe the crying baby.
Ignoring everyone else, she pulled open her thin, cicada-wing-like underwear and began to breastfeed the hungry infant.
Watching the baby suckling so deliciously, Mo Fei felt hungry too.
The goddess had two; she wouldn't mind sharing one with him, would she?
"Is it yours?"
"Ding dong! Prompt, mission triggered."
"Save the child!"
"Mission description: A newborn baby is in mortal danger. Assist Smith in eliminating the source of danger threatening him! Participation must reach 30%."
"Mission Reward: An extraordinary carrot!"
"An extraordinary carrot: It looks like an ordinary carrot, but it has extraordinary effects. For example, it can be used for... More importantly, it is full of vitality. As long as you are not dead, eating it can immediately revive your vitality! Friendly reminder, dipped in... juice, it tastes more refreshing and works better!"
Mo Fei: "..."
This silly system, although its intentions were good, why were its words so unpleasant?
However... a special item that could pull someone back from the brink of death was undoubtedly very valuable.
But considering his LV2 medical skills, LV1 magic, and LV1 Xing Yi Quan, he had no confidence in saving this baby!
Although the item was good, Mo Fei knew his limits; he simply didn't have the ability to obtain it.
Greed leads to disaster!
Forget it!
After casually teasing Smith and Quintana, Mo Fei left the church with Mindy.
Anyway, even without him, Smith would be able to help the baby survive, so he wouldn't interfere recklessly.
Mindy stayed by Mo Fei's side, not saying much, but on the way back, she was frowning in deep thought. She didn't know why, but something seemed a little off!
Less than ten minutes after Mo Fei and Mindy left, seven or eight Ford SUVs of the same model appeared outside the church.
Led by a mercenary leader with a full beard, they entered the church.
Less than three minutes later, screams erupted from inside.
Then Smith, carrying the baby, and Quintana ran out of the church... It was late at night when they returned home.
After Mo Fei and Mindy washed up, they went to sleep peacefully.
Having earned over three thousand U.S. dollars today, Mo Fei felt like he would wake up laughing in his dreams.
As midnight approached, the moonlight became extremely faint, and the heavy fog gradually receded, but the streets were still hazy.
"Bang bang bang!"
Suddenly, there was an urgent knocking sound from outside the door.
"Who is it?"
The alert Mindy was the first to wake from her sleep, frowning as she called out.
There was no answer from outside, but the knocking became more urgent.
