What is a super villain?

Chapter 176 The Canning House (4k)

At the junction of Twisting Street and Songding Street, there are several [-]-story skyscrapers.

This is the tallest building in the downtown area. There are signs such as 01, 02, and 03 on the outside of the skyscraper. The outer wall is dilapidated, and it looks like it has been around for many years.

The original name of the real estate has long been known to no one, and the downtown area calls it the 'Canned House'.

Because the residents are all crowded in the apartment of the building that is as crowded as sardine cans, there is me in you, and you in me, regardless of each other.

Lu Nansheng walked alone in the dirty street outside the canning house.

During the construction of the canned house, the distance between buildings was not considered. Two different buildings can be directly connected by placing a long wooden plank.

No one did that, though, and the strong drafts at the upper floors would turn anyone trying to cross into garbage, just like the garbage piled on the street outside the building.

——The street outside the canning house building is narrow and cramped, and there are mountains of garbage thrown from high above the sky. When walking on the road, one must always be careful of wine bottles or soda cans falling from the sky and smashing his head into a hole.

Of course, these are not the worst.

It is rainy in Rose City. If you want to walk on the streets of canning houses, you must pray that the liquid falling from the sky will not smell bad.

She stopped before the last intersection on Canning House Street, and the underground passage originally designed as a parking lot was not far away.

Along with the flow of people, she walked into the underground passage.

The smell in the passage is not good, but compared to the unknown objects falling from the sky at any time, residents will still choose to enter the skyscraper from here.

Once upon a time, the Canning House was the largest public rental apartment in the downtown area. I don’t know which municipal genius came up with the idea and invested in the construction with what kind of mentality.

After all, it is considered a municipal project. Although it has been so dilapidated that it is unsightly, but with the public power grid and DC water supply, the canned house is already the best residential area in the lower city, bar none.

And in the publicity, the canned house also has mature smart apartment facilities and security protection, which is the only one in the downtown area.

The people who live here are often employees of street shops or small and medium-sized enterprises in the upper city. Their income is better than that of most residents in the lower city, but they are not enough to afford the living expenses in the upper city.

The taller among the dwarves, the tin house became their first choice, and the more they got together, the more they got together.

After all, it claims to have a city-wide networked alarm system, an apartment security door that is difficult to break, and a full set of smart homes that can be used unlimitedly just by paying the rent.

When Lu Nansheng was walking in the underground passage, he did see cameras dotted all over the place, although it was questionable how many were still running.

Compared with the bustling Yehuo Street or Utacho Street, this place is quiet and depressing.

Canning house dwellers have a sense of superiority over other residents on ordinary downtown streets, feeling that they are not of the same class.

Disdainful of street trends or tastes, they eagerly pursue Uptown culture, habits, ways of thinking, and public morals.

In Uptown, making loud noises in public is considered impolite and intrusive, so residents of canning houses take pride in keeping quiet, which has gradually evolved into an unspoken rule of the neighborhood.

Maybe some people think it's stupid, but the environment is such that if you don't follow the crowd, you will be isolated, which will turn into bullying.

same,

Light and shadow posters, consumer advertisements, brand name chains and other common elements of uptown also appear in the canning house, and the walls are rendered by colorful advertisements, making the eyes dazzled.It is not the advertising department of the giant company to promote, but the residents of the canning house take the initiative to post these advertisements.

Because that's the 'uptown' style they're familiar with.

Poor attention to etiquette and piles of garbage outside the building add a bit of comedy to the existence here.

Look carefully, the canning house is still full of homeless people, and there are garbage dumps and sewage flowing everywhere. It is still part of the lower city and has nothing to do with the upper city.

The sense of superiority and aloofness are just the ridiculous self-entertainment of the residents of the canning house.

Many people are addicted to this self-entertaining sense of superiority, using their own pitifully small capital to laugh at those poorer proletarians who have nothing.

"Yo! Miss Luna's head! This way!"

Before stepping into Building 03, someone was already guarding the elevator.

A woman wearing revealing heavy makeup, with rivet marks left by prosthetic body modification on her waist.

Her name is Fenna, and she is an idiot. Lu Nansheng once rescued her.

Lu Nansheng has saved many sexual partners.

The sex dolls in the lower city are the lowest level. Most of them are outsiders who have come to Rose City to make a living.

Fenner was in a dark massage parlor before, and was coerced by local snakeheads with a little bit of power to live a dark life.

After being rescued by Lu Nansheng, she regained her freedom, but she is still a sex doll.

It's just that Fenna can enjoy the money she earned now, and she doesn't need to share it with the snakehead, and she doesn't have to be prostituted by the snakehead's subordinates.

"Long time no see, Fenna, how are you doing?"

"It's a good day, at least I won't starve to death."

Fenna walked ahead and led the way: "Petyr has guests, so I'm the only one here...go this way, big sister."

Petyr is Fenner's boyfriend, who is also a sex couple, and the two have already taken root in the canning house.

"Mayumi Shimamura and the others said that they are on the 03st floor of Building 121. I usually hang out in Building 04. I am not very familiar with this place."

Fenner walked and said:
"They have suffered this time. Fortunately, there is a big sister, otherwise they will die in the ditch someday."

Lu Nansheng didn't speak, she noticed the reaction of passers-by to her.

Vigilant and indifferent, with disdain and disgust in the indifference.

The corridors and elevators were crowded with people, but there was no sound at all, and there was an eerie silence.

A heart-piercing cry came from an unknown floor, and it was heard far away in the open space, almost the whole building could hear it.

The elevator stopped on the 121st floor, Lu Nansheng and Fenna squeezed out of the elevator box, and then talked again:
"You weren't with Mayumi and the others?"

"No."

Fenner replied casually: "I have a boyfriend, and I want to be with Petyr. You know, because of the experience before, Mayumi and the others still have fear of men, and they are both uncomfortable and cautious when they get together."

She identified the building signs leading the way several times, turned right and then left again, suddenly realized that she finally came to the open-air corridor.

"But we still keep in touch, and we get together occasionally. At least they are living a good life, and they are thriving...just ahead."

Fenna took Lu Nansheng through the door and walked into the emergency escape passage of the canning house - a winding staircase with no end in sight.

The stairs were crowded with people, forming a small market with an up and down structure, with many stalls.

At this time, the most conspicuous thing in front of them was the small tent set up at the corner fixed with oilcloth and iron poles.

Under the tent, there are an assortment of earrings, necklaces and women's bags of various styles, with clearly marked prices.

The shelves are mostly empty, and business seems to be going well.

"Hey! Mayumi, Latifa! Big sister is here!"

Fenna opened the tent and bent down to walk in. Lu Nansheng followed behind, and immediately saw several women curled up in the corner of the tent, covered in bruises.

They were all new injuries, apparently from recent abuse.

"Miss Luna!"

Mayumi Shimamura was the most injured, but she was the only one among the women who remained strong. When she saw Lu Nansheng, she opened her eyes wide and forced a smile to greet her.

Lu Nansheng frowned, walked to the side and grabbed Mayumi's hand.

"what happened?"

Mayumi shook her head, tears welled up in her eyes, unable to hold back any longer.

"Two days ago, a group of masked men smashed our stall, beat, scolded and tortured us. They called the municipal inspectors, said that we illegally set up a stall to pollute the city's appearance, and forced us to sign a fine. In the future, 8% of the income will be handed over in a certain week, and a large fine will be paid additionally..."

Mayumi cried with a clear face, hesitating after a pause.

"They said that the fine can be paid in installments, but as interest, the other sisters and I must accompany..."

Lu Nansheng's face was as gloomy as water.

"Well, I see, leave it to me."

Polluting the appearance of the city is the most absurd excuse.

Mayumi and the others are also sex puppets rescued by Lu Nansheng. They are good at handicrafts, and they set up a stall in the canning house to buy high-quality imitation luxury jewelry in the style of the uptown.

The residents of the canning house couldn't afford real luxuries, and they loved the high-priced art style of Uptown, so Mayumi sold well, and made a living for the few who didn't want to be sex dolls anymore.

A few days ago, someone wanted to make a fuss, so Zhenyumei asked Fenna to ask Lu Nansheng for help.

Generally speaking, street gangsters will say that they are from a certain gang or a security company disguised by a certain gang. Few people will pretend to be municipal.

Unusual events may represent the co-creation society, so Lu Nansheng is going to help Mayumi and the others solve the problem, and check if there is any clue.

"Miss Luna, those people will come again today." Latifa, who looked younger next to her, said.

Lu Nansheng nodded, then turned to Fenna and said:

"Fenner, take Mayumi to your side to hide for a while, and I'll wait for that group of people to come here."

Then he touched Latifa's head:
"Don't worry, I will let them learn a lesson and dare not provoke you again."

"Big sister, take care."

Fenna helped several people, exited the emergency passage and left.

Lu Nansheng came to the booth and sat cross-legged, waiting.

About an hour later, there were a few more people in front of the booth.

"Why did you change the girl? What about the previous ones? I tell you, don't try to run away! We have a lot of tricks to concoct people who escape!"

Lu Nansheng raised his head and found that as Mayumi said, there were a few masked people wearing municipal inspection clothes.

"Brother, this girl is not bad!"

"Extreme goods."

"We found the treasure!"

The leader was obviously taken aback, and soon laughed obscenely.

"Hey, beauty, what's your name?"

Lu Nansheng asked:

"Are you from the municipal government, asking the owner of the stall to pay the fine?"

"Of course!" The boss patted the armband on his sleeve.

Before he finished speaking, the masked man at the head spun and flew out, spitting blood, and hit the wall.

The other younger brothers were even more frightened, and immediately rushed forward, shouting.

It didn't take much effort for Lu Nansheng to subdue them all easily, and then frowned.

This group of prosthetic bodies are of average level, and they can only bully Mayumi and other women who are weaker in resistance.

"I ask, you answer."

She grabbed the boss by the collar, pressed against the wall, and spoke forcefully.

"Who ordered you? Why pretend to be a municipal government? Is it a co-creation society?"

The boss just fucked up, afraid to explain:
"Forgive me! Forgive me! No... No one instructed us. We walked for two weeks and found that there were only a few women in the booth, so we made a fool of ourselves. We never thought that they were covered by someone... I'm sorry we were wrong, and we will save our lives."

"to be frank!"

Lu Nansheng punched him in the face, knocking out his teeth.

"True... the truth is, the reason for pretending to be a city council is because you don't dare to pretend to be a gang. The canned house is the territory of the Assassins, and they will liquidate the fake gang. As for the co-creation society, we have never heard of it."

Interrogated several times, all with the same result.

Lu Nansheng was inevitably a little disappointed, took out shackles and neural nanochips to put on several people, and sent them to the construction site of the new orphanage to collect ashes.

This group of people are ordinary street gangsters. Seeing Mayumi and the others have no protection, they just have evil thoughts in their hearts.

After solving the gangsters, Lu Nansheng found Fenna and Mayumi again, and told them that the gangsters would not come to harass them again, and at the same time told them that they could continue to look for Nightcrawler on Wildfire Street if they had any difficulties.

Amid bursts of thanks, Lu Nansheng left the canning house and prepared to return.

She clenched her fists,
Recently, I have been a little irritable and my temper is getting worse and worse.

When she first came to the lower city, she didn't want to use violence to establish order, but now using violence is as common as eating and drinking.

Does the environment change people?Or is it just her nature?
Lu Nansheng walked out of the canning house and finally came to a fairly wide street.

The sky was gray and it looked like it was going to rain again.

She has mobilized other ordinary people like Mayumi Shimamura to provide clues to the co-creation society. The canned house has not been harvested, and she is going to the next one.

At this moment, disordered breathing and the sound of running came from the corner of the street.

Lu Nansheng stopped, turned her head and saw a barefoot little girl running past the corner, turning her head while running, and then accidentally fell down.

When she stepped forward and grabbed the little girl's shoulders to help her up, the girl's body trembled surprisingly, struggling to escape from Lu Nansheng's grasp.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

Lu Nansheng asked as gently as possible.

The girl's attire was not like a stray mouse wandering the streets, but like an escape from a ward, a prison cell, or something else.

The little girl didn't say a word, and the sound of the anti-gravity flight engine breaking through the air came from around the corner again.

After hearing the sound, she trembled even more, and she stopped struggling, instead, she burrowed into the arms of the person in front of her.

Lu Nansheng raised his head, and saw several combat teams in elite black armor and anti-gravity flying boots coming forward in search formation.

Oddly, none of the men had corporate or municipal markings on them.

"Here, found."

Seeing the little girl, the men in black landed one after another, and stepped forward with rifles in their arms.

"An unknown passerby intervened."

"Permission to fire, clear witnesses."

"receive."

The people in black exchanged for a moment, raised their guns without hesitation, aimed at Lu Nansheng and pulled the trigger.
