The next day, Lu Yu still woke up on time. He stretched his body, and all the bones in his body made cracking sounds. He had been so exhausted yesterday, but he had recovered in one night. This made Lu Yu realize once again how strong his body was.
Because of the work he did yesterday, he received a lot of money today. 30 silver coins was enough for him to eat in Pi City for a while. (Note: 100 copper coins are equivalent to one silver coin, 100 silver coins are equivalent to one gold coin, and one copper coin is equivalent to one dollar on Earth.))
When he arrived in the city, Lu Yu immediately went to buy a set of clothes. The previous set had already been worn out by him. If he did not change, he would not be able to stand it anymore. He spent two silver coins to buy two sets of clothes. He then walked towards the north of the city.
Being a porter in the city was not that tiring. In the past few days, Lu Yu had only moved goods a dozen times. Although he had to move things all over the city, it was much better than being at the dock.
The days were full and comfortable. After a few days, Lu Yu became familiar with the people around him. He had a basic understanding of Pi City and Valoran.
"Lu Yu, send these two boxes of apples to the biscuit factory outside the city.”The warehouse manager brought over two wooden boxes and said to Lu Yu.
Due to Lu Yu's strong physical strength, he completed the work extremely quickly every time. The warehouse manager was also willing to hand over the work to him. Although the others were jealous, the incident at the dock would not happen. There were no cliques in the city, and the security here was more strict.
"Alright! It'll be delivered soon."
Lu Yu agreed quickly. He picked up the wooden box and ran quickly and steadily.
Although the biscuit factory was outside the city, it was not far away. They only needed to climb a small hill. However, as soon as he stepped out of the city gate, Lu Yu felt a little strange. It was not like he had never moved an apple before. However, it was completely different from today's weight. This was clearly several times heavier than the previous time. It shouldn't be!
Could it be that the administrator wants to exploit me? Lu Yu quickly had this idea.
Although the porters in the city were paid according to their work, the price was not the same every time. The heavier the weight, the higher the price. If these two boxes were filled with steel parts, but they were priced according to Apple's price, wouldn't he suffer a huge loss?
Lu Yu immediately lost his composure when he thought of this. In order to verify his thoughts, he put down the box and pried open the wooden box.
This might be a little unethical, but Lu Yu was not someone who was willing to suffer losses. In order to find out the truth, everyone else could die.
The wooden box was pried open, but there were only apples inside. Lu Yu picked one up and shook it in his hand. It was indeed much heavier than an ordinary apple. Lu Yu's doubts disappeared. He put down the apple and thought that it was a mutated variety. There was nothing wrong with adding a little more, as long as he was not fooled.
Lu Yu closed the wooden box again. He picked up the apple and was about to leave when a stone tripped him. Then, the apple box in his hand flew out.
"My salary!"
Watching the box fly out, Lu Yu could already foresee the situation where he would use his salary to subsidize Apple's losses. He wanted to cry but had no tears. His face had already landed heavily on the grass.
"Boom!"
A loud explosion shook the entire Pi City. Lu Yu also felt the ground suddenly shake, and a wave of heat swept across his back.
Lu Yu was still at a loss. His ears were buzzing and his head was a little dizzy.
When he looked up, the slope had been completely blown black. Wisps of black smoke were still rising from the boxes. As for the two boxes of apples, not even a scrap was left.
"What's going on? I just want to live a good life." Lu Yu muttered to himself in a miserable tone.
Lu Yu was stunned for a moment. Just as he was about to leave, he saw a car speeding over. Seeing the car, Lu Yu was stunned again. This was not much different from the cars on Earth! There were many similarities between the two worlds.
The car soon arrived in front of them, and two pretty figures got out of it!
"Why is it you again?" Caitlin and Vi said in unison.
"What's wrong?" Lu Yu's brain was still a little slow as he said.
The two of them looked at the hill behind Lu Yu. It was obvious that it was the mark of an explosion. They had come to investigate this matter. The explosion had shocked the entire Pi City. As the leaders of the Pi City Police Department, they naturally couldn't tolerate such a serious incident that affected public security.
However, Lu Yu was the only one standing at the scene of the incident. Without a doubt, he had become a suspect.
"When did you get here?”Vi asked coldly.
"A few minutes ago!"
Lu Yu was still a little confused by the explosion just now. He did not realize his current situation at all and replied blankly.
The timing of the attack matched. Vi and Caitlin looked at each other and nodded at the same time, their eyes shining with excitement.
"Did you see anyone else here?”Caitlin asked.
Lu Yu shook his head.
The light in their eyes became even brighter. Vi's eyes were like those of a hungry wolf, very scary.
"Did you see the explosion?"
As they spoke, the two of them slowly approached Lu Yu.
Lu Yu nodded. Then, he was stunned and shook his head. Although it happened not far away from him, just hearing it shouldn't count!
"Attack!"
The two of them did not care what Lu Yu's response was. As Wei shouted, the two of them quickly moved and pressed Lu Yu to the ground.
"What do you want?"
Lu Yu suddenly woke up after being captured. He turned around and called out to the two women.
"I finally caught the suspect this time. I didn't teach you a good lesson a few days ago. This time, I'll definitely let you enjoy it!”
Vi's face had an exceptionally wild smile, as if she had already seen the scene of Lu Yu being ravaged by her.
"Suspect your sister! I'm the victim. I didn't cause that explosion. Let go of me.”
At this point, Lu Yu knew what the lilies were up to. He immediately said angrily.
"You want to run? There's no way!"
Instead, Vi pressed Lu Yu even tighter. However, Lu Yu's strange strength was not something the two of them could stop. They exerted their strength. The two of them felt an irresistible force coming from their hands, and they fell to the ground uncontrollably.
"How is that possible?"
Vi's pupils suddenly contracted. She had always had a strong personality and thought that she would not lose to any man. She was already ashamed of being saved by Lu Yu a few days ago. This time, being pushed away by Lu Yu had offended her self-esteem.
"What a powerful force!"
Caitlin was also amazed by Lu Yu's brute strength. She had thought that Lu Yu only had some strength, but she did not expect him to be so strong. Of course, she did not have the competitive spirit of Vi.
"I want to duel with you!"
As soon as Lu Yu stood up, Vi got up with a face full of fighting spirit and looked straight at Lu Yu.
"Are you that bored?"
Lu Yu was truly troubled by Vi's personality. Putting aside whether he could win or not, he did not have the habit of fighting with women. How could he accept this female hooligan's challenge?
"You…you…you can fill your fist with power!”
Vi was furious at Lu Yu's rejection. She did not care whether he agreed or not. She used her skill and rushed towards Lu Yu.
Although Lu Yu's physical fitness was strong, he had not gone through any training. When he saw Vi rushing over, he did not have time to react and was directly knocked to the ground by Vi. Vi also laid on his body.
The current situation between the two of them could be said to be extremely ambiguous. However, Vi, this tough woman, didn't realize it at all. Or rather, she didn't care. Caitlyn, on the other hand, looked at them with a smile on her face. She did not seem jealous at all.
Vi did not give up and kept pestering Lu Yu. However, Lu Yu did not want to make a move and tried his best to dodge and block. Gradually, the two of them rolled together. If someone who didn't know what was going on saw this scene, they might think that the two of them were fighting in the wild.
In the end, Lu Yu grew impatient. He had been avoiding Vi's attacks so that he could not feel the intimate contact between the two of them at all. Just as he was about to attack, Vi suddenly flipped over. Instantly, a soft and perky part fell into his hands.
Lu Yu was a typical otaku on Earth. He had never enjoyed such benefits before. That touch made his heart skip a beat. He couldn't help but pinch it twice.
Vi naturally felt it when Lu Yu pinched her. A strange feeling welled up in his heart, and the fist that he had prepared fell weakly. She looked at Lu Yu with a flushed face and realized how indecent their actions were.
"Let go!"
Seeing that Lu Yu had no intention of letting go, Vi gritted her teeth and snorted.
"Oh!"
After a brief moment of absent-mindedness, Lu Yu immediately withdrew his hand. His face was still unnaturally red.
Vi and Lu Yu quickly got up and dusted their clothes. Vi regained her original demeanor as a female hooligan, but Lu Yu did not dare to look at Vi.
"Alright, Lu Yu, even if the explosion has nothing to do with you, you should come back with us to make a statement! After all, you were the person closest to the incident.”
Caitlin saw that the show was over and knew that it was time to get down to business. She said to Lu Yu in a gentle tone.
Lu Yu also felt guilty for touching something he shouldn't have. Hearing Caitlin's words, he naturally agreed.
Pi City Public Security Bureau.
This was the second time they were here, so the ordinary police officers were also very curious about Lu Yu. Lu Yu was the first criminal to be arrested by the sheriff twice in a row. However, Lu Yu was treated much better this time.
Vi and Caitlin immediately frowned after telling the two of them the truth about their experience.
"Are you saying that you heard the explosion as soon as you threw the apple away?”Caitlin asked after a moment of thought.
"Yes!" Lu Yu nodded.
" Apple, apple..." Caitlin kept muttering as she paced around the interrogation room.
"Caitlin, stop wandering around. My head is spinning!" Vi complained.
Caitlin stopped and looked at Vi with a serious expression. She slowly said," I have a guess now. If it's correct, it will be a disaster for the citizens.”
"What is it?"
"Jinx…"
