Great, It's the Pervy Neighbor. We're Doomed

Chapter 426: Mori Naoki’s Sudden Outburst

Administrator Mao Li Zhishu continuously tapped on his phone screen, then put away his phone.He smiled at Shangguan Fei and said, "The information provided by that resident was very timely. If nothing goes wrong, we should be able to catch that person."

Seeing this, Shangguan Fei also breathed a sigh of relief.

However, he was still somewhat worried.

Because he felt the environment he was currently in was very much like a horror infinite flow from web novels.

Therefore, if that person was truly human, they should be able to catch them this time. But if it wasn't a person, but a ghost...

"Hey, caught them!"

Suddenly, Administrator Mao Li Zhishu shouted.

He stared at his phone and spoke to Shangguan Fei.

Hearing this, Shangguan Fei wanted to lean over to look at Mao Li Zhishu's phone screen, but he was too late. Mao Li Zhishu had already put it away.

"Are you coming to see who that person really is?"

After putting away his phone, Administrator Mao Li Zhishu walked to the sofa. With his back to Shangguan Fei, he gathered several erotic manga magazines scattered on the sofa and put them into a black leather bag.

Then, picking up the bag, he said to Shangguan Fei.

Shangguan Fei nodded, "Alright, I also want to know who that person really is."

With that, he followed behind Administrator Mao Li Zhishu.

The two prepared to go out.

Administrator Mao Li Zhishu walked to the door.

He held the black leather bag in his left hand, and his right hand reached for the handle inside the door, ready to open it.

Just as his hand approached that metal handle, a hammer suddenly slid down from the sleeve of his right burgundy suit jacket.

When the hammer handle slid into his palm position, Administrator Mao Li Zhishu instantly grabbed it. With a fluid, seamless motion, he turned around and swung it towards Shangguan Fei behind him.

Administrator Mao Li Zhishu's movements were very fast and utterly unexpected.

But this hammer swing did not hit Shangguan Fei.

Shangguan Fei had actually retreated several steps backward in advance, dodging it!

After dodging, Shangguan Fei pointed at the refined, suit-wearing man holding the black metal hammer—Mao Li Zhishu.

He angrily shouted, "What the hell! I've been reading web novels for over a decade and writing them for years! Do you really think I'm a complete newbie?!"

Administrator Mao Li Zhishu probably also didn't expect Shangguan Fei to dodge his hammer swing.

He looked down at his hammer, feeling it wasn't his problem.

After all, this kind of trick had long been perfected by him to a masterful level.

Coupled with Shangguan Fei's curse, he understood he had encountered a very vigilant, intelligent person.

"So, you figured it out long ago?"

Administrator Mao Li Zhishu dropped the black leather bag from his left hand. The smile on his face began to turn somewhat unsettling.

Shangguan Fei pulled out a fruit knife wrapped in thick rags from his waist.

He unwrapped the rags, revealing the knife.

He gripped it tightly in his hand.

"Figured out? No, this isn't figuring out. It's just reasonable suspicion."

Administrator Mao Li Zhishu said, "Then what about me was worth your suspicion?"

Shangguan Fei said, "Several points."

"First, point one: When I asked Jiang Ran to accompany me on the night stakeout, his reaction was very much like a normal person's—he flatly refused."

"But you? You very enthusiastically agreed. No refusal at all."

Administrator Mao Li Zhishu said, "That's not a suspicious point. It could be because I just started as an administrator and wanted to perform well, build good relations with residents, and act out of a sense of administrative responsibility. It's even more likely I'm just a warm-hearted person."

Shangguan Fei, "Hah, that explanation is passable."

"But what about the second point? Although the weather has turned cooler now and isn't as hot as summer, it's still somewhat warm. Yet you kept wearing a suit the whole time. That's too suspicious."

Administrator Mao Li Zhishu shook his head, "This might just be a cultural difference between Cherry Blossom Country and Hua Country."

"In your Hua Country, people wearing suits, especially black suits, might be seen as salespeople or the like."

"But in Cherry Blossom Country, wearing suits is very normal, especially for work. Many industries have the habit of wearing suits."

Shangguan Fei sneered, extending three fingers, "Alright then, let me mention the third point. You dress so refined and gentlemanly, yet you read erotic manga magazines in front of a stranger you just met. Does someone like you exist?"

Administrator Mao Li Zhishu, "Perhaps I'm just true to myself, not putting on an act?"

Shangguan Fei said, "Fourth point: You said that person was caught. I wanted to see your phone, but you put it away and didn't let me look."

Administrator Mao Li Zhishu, "Could it possibly be because you looked too late?"

Shangguan Fei said, "Fifth point, also the final point."

"I'm a veteran web novel reader, and also a web novel author."

"I signed an agreement. That agreement lets me live in such a high-end apartment without paying rent or utilities, and even gives me ten thousand per day I stay. No matter how you think about it, this apartment definitely has problems, has something fishy going on."

"This kind of setup, in reality, it's the first time I've heard of it."

"But in those suspense-horror, infinite flow type web novels, it's not uncommon."

"So, with all these points combined, it's hard for me not to stay vigilant."

Administrator Mao Li Zhishu wanted to applaud Shangguan Fei, but because he had a hammer in his hand, the applause wasn't very loud.

"Oh, I thought your fifth point would be because I'm a Cherry Blossom Country-Hua Country mixed race, and due to historical reasons, you naturally harbor a sense of hostility!"

Shangguan Fei gave two cold, mocking laughs.

Now, both sides had laid their cards on the table.

They fell into a situation where neither knew what would happen next.

"Go out by yourself. I don't want to fight with you."

His empty left hand pointed outside, while his right hand tightly gripped the fruit knife.

Administrator Mao Li Zhishu said, "Then if I go out, what will you do afterwards? Call the police to arrest me?"

Shangguan Fei, "If I said I wouldn't, would you believe me?"

Administrator Mao Li Zhishu said, "No."

With that, Administrator Mao Li Zhishu made a move that Shangguan Fei could never have anticipated.

He actually threw the small hammer in his hand hard at Shangguan Fei.

Shangguan Fei dodged to the right, barely avoiding the small hammer, then turned his head to look at Administrator Mao Li Zhishu.

Originally, he wanted to see how Administrator Mao Li Zhishu would fight him next without the small hammer.

However, he suddenly felt a pain in his left arm, which was exposed from his short sleeve.

Looking down, he saw a dart-like object stuck in his left forearm.

His left arm instantly felt a wave of numbness spreading throughout his entire body.

"This, this is?!"

Shangguan Fei stared in horror at the dart.

He noticed there was some red liquid inside the dart, rapidly injecting through the needle tip embedded in his arm skin.

"This is an anesthetic dart."

Administrator Mao Li Zhishu's left hand was now holding a black pistol, a pistol that looked somewhat different from ordinary ones.

The black barrel was very long.

"I didn't want to use this originally, after all, I only have two anesthetic darts left."

So, while Administrator Mao Li Zhishu's right hand threw the small hammer, his left hand had already drawn the anesthetic pistol he had been hiding at his waist.

When Shangguan Fei was dodging the small hammer with all his might to the right, Administrator Mao Li Zhishu had already fired towards that direction.
