ATPnovel Chapter 89 Returning the Car
Chapter 89 Returning the Car
Last time I killed that guy named "Ah Le", I gained about 100 reputation points for him.
This time, killing this guy named "A Mang" directly gave him over 500 reputation points.
Receiving two awards in a row made Li Wei want to give these two guys a thumbs up; they really are good people.
Just as Li Wei was inwardly thanking the organization, in a basement bar on the second floor of Gotham's East Side...
"You bastard, what do you mean by this!"
A white man with a pointed face and monkey-like features looked at Ah Le, who looked like a high school student, with a face full of anger.
"What do I mean? My meaning is very clear: regarding those guys we're training, we'll split the reputation equally."
"you!"
The white man with a pointed chin and monkey-like face looked furious, his expression changing several times as he watched the high school student in the white suit in front of him.
The high school student was undoubtedly Gao Le, while the white man with the pointed face and monkey-like features was He Mang, who had just re-entered the game.
Good fortune doesn't always favor him; this time, he's a thief.
As soon as he entered the game, looking at the wallet in his hand, He Mang hadn't even reacted when he heard the sound of police sirens.
If it weren't for Gao Le, he would probably have been arrested and taken to the police station by now.
"He Mang, I advise you to see the situation clearly."
Gao Le stood up and looked down at He Mang. "Now you have to rely on me. If it weren't for me, you would probably have been taken back to the police station by now."
Let me think about what will happen next. Oh, you'll probably be locked up in Blackgate Prison next.
As far as I know, it's a really good place; it might even awaken some unusual quirks in you.
For example, you could sell your manure for a high price, if someone would buy it.
Gao Le's words made He Mang's expression freeze. Given the current situation, he had no choice but to silently swallow his anger.
"Hmph, fine, we'll do it your way and split it evenly."
He Mang glared angrily at Gao Le, feeling extremely dissatisfied.
"Splitting it equally? What about the extra one?"
Gao Le glanced at He Mang disdainfully, then gently patted his cheek. "The extra one is mine. I'll get them to start taking action as soon as possible."
After Gao Le finished speaking, he didn't even blink before pushing open the door and walking out, leaving He Mang, whose face was flushed, standing there.
...
After reviewing his attributes, Li Wei felt extremely satisfied.
Reputation level is 2034, a full 737 points higher than before.
In addition to gaining 8 new attribute points, you can also draw skills twice.
It must be said that although he was very tired from resolving the issues between the Falcone and Maroni families, the rewards were exceptionally rich.
Looking at the reputation column, which clearly displays "2034," Li Wei couldn't help but feel hopeful.
I wonder what skill he'll get this time.
He thought for a moment, then focused his mind, held his breath, and looked at the attribute panel.
[Player's reputation has exceeded 2000, granting one skill draw opportunity. Would you like to use it?]
Seeing the pop-up notification, Li Wei was taken aback; something seemed off.
Logically speaking, he should have had two chances to draw!
"System, what's going on! Did you swallow my last chance to draw a card?!"
Li Wei felt humiliated for inexplicably missing one draw opportunity.
Losing a skill out of nowhere, anyone would probably find it hard to stay calm.
However, no matter how much Li Wei shouted, the system remained completely unresponsive.
Just as he was resigned to his fate, he suddenly noticed a help button in the upper right corner.
Li Wei clicked the help button and scrolled down, finally finding the skill extraction introduction.
[Except for the first skill draw, which only requires 500 reputation points due to newbie protection, each subsequent skill draw requires 1000 reputation points.]
Looking at this cold, impersonal message, Li Wei was stunned for a moment, but felt helpless about it.
Whatever, that's it!
"Start drawing skills!"
Li Wei began drawing skills in frustration, but inwardly he prayed that he would draw a useful skill.
To be fair, a good skill is quite useful.
[Skill drawing in progress...]
With a notification, the "beep beep" sound of the spinning wheel echoed in Li Wei's mind.
The sound didn't last long, only about 5 seconds later, with a "beep," a notification came to Li Wei's mind that the extraction was successful.
[Skill acquisition complete. Congratulations to the player for obtaining the skill: Waist and Abdomen Enhancement (Level 1)]
【Waist and Abdomen Strengthening (Level 1)】: Passive skill, slightly increases the player's waist and abdominal strength. — Dude, with this skill, you'll be an invincible little whirlwind from now on!
Looking at the skill he had just drawn, Li Wei was somewhat taken aback, and then a surge of urge to curse rose in his heart.
What the hell do you mean by "strengthening the waist and abdomen"?!
Judging from this situation, maybe I should try to get the indestructible ability again next time.
As for these two combinations together, it's practically a nuclear bomb-level combination.
The biggest problem is that I've come to Gotham, not some weird world!
Gotham doesn't believe in tears, and it certainly doesn't believe in any bedroom arts.
Li Wei was filled with impotent rage, but there was nothing he could do. In the end, he could only accept this cruel reality.
This time, he drew a skill that was practically useless.
He slammed the panel shut in a huff, and as soon as Li Wei turned his head, he saw snowflakes falling outside the window.
Under the glow of the streetlights, the glistening snowflakes looked so enchanting.
"I wonder how many people will fall in the snow this winter."
He had just woken up and was not sleepy at all.
Li Wei thought about it and decided to return the car. He felt quite embarrassed to have borrowed someone else's car for so long.
When Maroni's men were arrested and taken to the police station before, he specifically looked up the address of the guy with the mohawk, and this time he planned to return the car to that guy.
After all, he wasn't a real robber, so he couldn't keep "borrowing" someone else's car.
Without hesitation, Li Wei went downstairs, started the pickup truck, and drove towards the address he remembered.
The process of returning the car was simple, and the driver, nicknamed "Cockscomb Head," seemed very happy to have his pickup truck back after losing it for the second time.
She was so happy that she disregarded Li Wei's status and planned to invite him to dinner.
Even though it was Li Wei who took away his beloved, when his beloved was regained, nothing else mattered.
Li Wei declined the rooster-headed man's offer, since he really couldn't eat anything at the moment.
After saying goodbye to the man with the mohawk, Li Wei walked out of his apartment and slowly walked back down the street.
Snowflakes were falling heavily from the sky, but Li Wei had come prepared before going out, bringing a coat with him.
Otherwise, he probably wouldn't have been able to walk back down the street at all.
The leather boots squeaked as they stepped on the snow-covered sidewalk.
A gust of cold wind swept by, and he couldn't help but shrink his neck.
Whether in his past life or this one, Li Wei doesn't really like cold weather.
It was cold and damp; this feeling was not good at all.
Just as he was hurrying along, a boy of about half a year old came towards him.
