Chapter 185: Ding, your investment has been received...
Chapter 185: Ding, your investment has been received...
Soon, chaos erupted at the supermarket entrance. Night City and Saitama, who had initially been laden with purchases, were immediately surrounded and attacked by a group of housewives.
With Genos' physical disabilities and youthful appearance, these middle-aged women and young ladies were hesitant to bully him, so they turned their attention to Night City and Saitama.
"You there, you're the one who just took advantage of the chaos to grope my butt, right?"
"I got groped too! I thought it was someone else, but now it seems it was you two shameless guys!"
Facing the accusations and blows from these ordinary people, Night City and Saitama's physical strength made them impervious to pain. However, the goods they had painstakingly grabbed were snatched away...
"Night City, I didn't expect you to be this kind of person. I asked you to stop those middle-aged women, not to take advantage and grope them!"
Baldhead initially wanted to fight back, but upon hearing the accusations from the middle-aged women and the misunderstanding with Genos, he realized they were at fault and could only choose to passively endure the beating.
"Nonsense! Those middle-aged women are at least in their late twenties. I prefer younger, pretty ladies!
There were so many of them, and they rushed forward as soon as the sale began. It's inevitable that there would be some physical contact when I tried to stop them all by myself!"
Saitama: (_; If it weren't for those two claiming to have been groped on the chest and butt, the youngest and prettiest among these women, I would have almost believed your lies!
After the middle-aged women left, satisfied and carefree, they left behind Night City and Saitama, who had been thoroughly humiliated.
Who knew how powerful these middle-aged women were!
Saitama's cheap hero suit, which was so affordable that it was unbelievable, had never shown any signs of damage, even when facing Dragon-Class Hazards.
But this time, both the tight yellow plastic bodysuit and the white cape on his back were torn to shreds...
The mountain of sale items that the two had gathered were snatched away during the chaos.
"Tonight, we might not even have bean sprouts to eat..."
When Night City and Saitama saw the fruits, vegetables, and ingredients that the young ladies had given Genos, they felt a little relieved.
But when the two tried to take those items, the young ladies returned and took back everything they had given to Genos!
One of the young ladies, after giving Genos a piece of bread, earnestly advised him, "Buddy, it's best if you don't hang around with people like them. Otherwise, you might pick up bad habits.
If you're forced to go out due to mobility issues, I can help you contact the welfare home or call the police."
Hearing the young lady's words, Night City and Saitama were stunned. So, their current image in the eyes of these middle-aged women was that ugly!
"Damn it! Baldhead, it's your fault for leaving Genos at the supermarket entrance, making them think we're a scam group!"
Night City could guess that in the eyes of these middle-aged women, he and Saitama were probably criminals forcing a "disabled" person like Genos to beg on the streets.
"How can you blame me? If I didn't hurry, the sale would have ended.
And you were mistaken for a lustful maniac too?"
"It's your reckless behavior that caused us to be hated."
"I told you, that was an accident!"
The supermarket sale, which was supposed to be a bountiful harvest, ended up with nothing gained, and even Yecheng and Saitama got into a heated argument over it.
Genos, on the other hand, realized that the weekly Saturday supermarket sale was indeed not as simple as he had imagined.
To secure the sale items, advance intelligence gathering and strategic planning were essential.
Then came the control of strength, the tempering of willpower, and other factors that could be honed during the shopping frenzy.
In the end, Genos had to admit that those elderly women were indeed formidable opponents, both terrifying and powerful!
That evening, Yecheng and Saitama, having failed to grab any sale items, had no choice but to splurge on an expensive meal outside.
Of course, only Yecheng and Saitama indulged, while Genos was sent to Dr. Kuseno for refurbishment.
Due to their recent windfall from the 'Evolution House', the two men, who rarely drank, got completely drunk and stumbled home late at night.
It wasn't until the next afternoon, when Dr. Kuseno, who had worked through the night to fix Genos, returned, that they saw the two snoring loudly in the living room.
Time passed until dusk, and the two, hungover and starving, were awakened by their hunger.
With no ingredients at home, Genos was unable to cook, so Yecheng and Saitama generously offered to give Genos a substantial living allowance.
After all, with the compensation from the 'Evolution House' and Genos' apprenticeship gift, Yecheng and Saitama were not wealthy, but at least for a short time, they wouldn't have to worry about money.
However, just as Yecheng and Saitama were about to give Genos his allowance, they realized they didn't have enough cash on hand. When they went to the ATM to withdraw money, they were shocked to find that all the money in their account was gone!
"Yecheng, what the hell is going on! Yesterday, you said all the compensation money from the 'Evolution House' was deposited into your account. What the hell is going on now?!"
Seeing the few thousand yen left in Yecheng's account, the bald man's expression froze, and he began chasing after Yecheng, shaking his shoulders and demanding an explanation.
"Ding-dong——!"
Just as Yecheng was deep in thought, suspecting a paranormal event, his phone in his pocket suddenly buzzed with a text message.
When Yecheng picked up his phone and saw the new message notification, he found that it was from the transgender CEO of the modeling company.
"Yecheng, your investment funds have been successfully deposited. From now on, you are one of our company's shareholders.
I knew I didn't misjudge you. Who would have thought that during the company's most difficult time, you would step up and lend a helping hand to a company on the brink of closure.
I greatly appreciate your trust in the company and me. I won't let your trust down. Your investment and recognition in the company will one day be rewarded. My sweetheart (heart)."
Upon reading this message, Yecheng was stunned, and the bald man, who had been about to scold Yecheng, froze mid-motion.
The memory of the previous night's drunkenness, which had been sealed away, now surged forth from their minds.
