The Labyrinth of the Monsters

Chapter 32 – Zodiac



Gao Yang walked up to Niu Xuan and asked, "What's up?"

"Let's play dice! Dare you?"

Niu Xuan sat on the sofa next to the coffee table, full of confidence. After he finished speaking, someone next to him had already pressed the call service button on the table corner.

Soon, the private room door was pushed open, and a young waitress walked in. "Is there anything you need?"

The waitress was dressed in a black and red servant uniform. This kind of uniform might look tacky on ordinary people, but it had a custom-made sense of elegance on her, as if she was a personal servant in a noble manor, professional, elegant, and humble.

She wore a cute little white rabbit mask on her face, which formed a sharp contrast with her professional demeanor, adding a touch of mystery.

Seeing everyone's confusion, the waitress politely explained, "Today, our esteemed VIP customer, Mr. Qin, is celebrating his birthday. He was born in the Year of the Rabbit, so all the staff..."

"Enough, enough!" Niu Xuan was impatient. Other people's birthdays had nothing to do with him. "Bring me your special space psychedelic cocktail."

"The Space Psychedelic, how many dozen would you like?"

"Start with five dozen."

"Well... the Space Psychedelic is quite strong," the waitress glanced around, "I think two dozen should be enough for you..."

"What do you mean? Are you afraid I don't have money?" Niu Xuan was holding back his anger and started scolding the waitress.

"No, I'm sorry," the waitress bowed slightly, "I'll prepare five dozen of the Space Psychedelic for you, please wait."

Although Niu Xuan was scolding the waitress, his behavior was quite uncivilized. Wan Sisi and the other girls felt embarrassed and could only pretend not to hear and started singing.

Soon, the waitress came back pushing a small cart, placing the five dozen special cocktails on the coffee table. The glasses were small and slender, resembling small bottles of biochemical potions. They were neatly embedded in a white metal honeycomb box, shining brightly under the dazzling lights, giving off a cyberpunk sci-fi vibe.

Niu Xuan picked up the dice and said with great momentum, "Guess big or small. If you lose, you drink. If you're a man, don't be a coward!"

Gao Yang thought to himself, "You've said it to this extent, how can I refuse?"

Niu Xuan was determined to make Gao Yang drink until he passed out today, making him drunk and lose face in front of all their classmates. Gao Yang was usually a good boy who probably didn't drink much, at most three cups. But Niu Xuan was different. He had been through many battles and could handle ten cups without a problem.

Anyway, betting on big or small had no skill involved, purely based on luck!

"Bang!" Niu Xuan fiercely operated the dice cup and slammed it on the table. "Big or small."

"You go first," Gao Yang said.

"Big!" Niu Xuan opened the dice cup, revealing three ones.

Niu Xuan was stunned for two seconds. He picked up a glass of alcohol and drank it all in one go.

"Da la da la da la - Bang!" Niu Xuan looked at Gao Yang aggressively. "Again! Big or small!"

"You go first," Gao Yang humbly gestured.

"You go first!" Niu Xuan learned his lesson this time.

"Then I'll choose big."

Niu Xuan opened the dice cup, revealing three sixes.

Niu Xuan was dumbfounded. It was a coincidence, definitely a coincidence! Niu Xuan finished his second glass of alcohol, thought for a moment, and pushed the dice cup in front of Gao Yang. "You shake it."

"Oh." Gao Yang shook it a few times and put it down. "Big or small."

"Big," Niu Xuan said.

Gao Yang was about to open it when Niu Xuan suddenly held his hand. "Wait! Small!"

"Okay."

"Wait..."

"Is it big or small?" Gao Yang asked.

"Big! No changes." Niu Xuan made up his mind.

Gao Yang opened the dice cup: three ones.@@novelbin@@

Niu Xuan was dumbfounded. It was really unbelievable! Could this guy be cheating?

Niu Xuan immediately changed to another dice cup, carefully checked it before using it, and even checked under the coffee table to make sure there were no tricks. Then he started shaking the dice.

This time, he shook it continuously for a minute until his hand became sore before putting it down.

"You choose first!"

"Big..."

"I choose big!" Niu Xuan immediately interrupted.

"Then I'll choose small."

Niu Xuan opened the dice cup, revealing three ones.

Niu Xuan's mentality collapsed. Two male classmates who were watching the excitement beside him exclaimed, "Oh my god! Gao Yang, what kind of luck do you have? It's incredible!"

Niu Xuan became furious and gradually lost his sanity. He picked up a glass of alcohol, drank it all, and slammed it hard on the ground, shattering the glass into pieces. Glass shards flew everywhere, scaring the girls who were singing. One of the shards even hit Wan Sisi's leg, leaving a bloodstain.

The bespectacled girl named Luo Xiaodan was Wan Sisi's best friend. She quickly squatted down to check Wan Sisi's wound and became extremely angry. Normally, she wouldn't dare to provoke someone like Niu Xuan, but this time she couldn't bear it anymore.

"Forget it, I'm fine..." Wan Sisi tried to pull Luo Xiaodan away.

Luo Xiaodan shook off Wan Sisi's hand and walked up to Niu Xuan. "Niu Xuan! Gao Yang! If you want to drink, go somewhere else! Today is Wan Sisi's birthday, not your territory. Don't cause trouble here!""Alright." Gao Yang wanted to end the conversation and was about to get up when Niu Xuan held him down. "You're not going anywhere! Another round!"

Luo Xiaodan was trembling with anger on the side, "Niu Xuan, can you act normal for once..."

"Shut up, you old hag! I'm drinking here today! What can you do about it?!" Niu Xuan, drunk, revealed his true colors.

"You, you..."

Gao Yang stood up, his face cold, "I'm done playing, find someone else."

"You dare to quit?!" Niu Xuan suddenly stood up, kicked over the coffee table, and the room was in a mess. Everyone in the room was stunned, only the accompaniment was still echoing, the atmosphere was tense.

Luo Xiaodan, a girl, had never been treated so harshly. She cried on the spot, covered her face, and ran out. A few girls who had wanted to escape this place hurriedly followed.

A quick look at "pawread dot com" will leave you more fulfilled.

Wan Sisi glanced at Gao Yang, hesitated, and followed them out.

The boys didn't expect things to escalate like this, they only tried to persuade Niu Xuan symbolically - they knew him, once he got angry, no one could calm him down.

Niu Xuan indeed didn't listen, the boys looked at each other, and under the pretext of going to the bathroom, they all slipped away.

In a moment, only three people were left in the room.

Gao Yang and Niu Xuan stood in the middle of the broken glass and spilled wine, confronting each other. Qing Ling, with her legs crossed and arms folded, was sitting in the corner of the room, watching the drama.

Niu Xuan gritted his teeth, "Gao Yang! You've really grown up! Playing the hero to save the beauty, making me the villain!"

"I have no other intentions, I just don't want to play anymore." Gao Yang's face was still cold, he was running out of patience. If it came to a fight, he wasn't afraid of him. His attributes had grown, not enough to deal with a Beast, but more than enough to deal with a "human".

"You have no other intentions? I think you have plenty!" Niu Xuan stepped forward, grabbed Gao Yang's collar, and spat on his face, "Gao Yang, I can understand if you want to move on after Li Weiwei's death, but aren't you already with Qing Ling? What's your intention in attending Wan Sisi's birthday party?"

"She invited me."

"Couldn't you refuse?" Niu Xuan was even angrier, "I think you want to hook up with Wan Sisi too! You have quite an appetite! Can you handle it?"

"I'm far from your level." Gao Yang retorted.

"You're asking for it!" Niu Xuan didn't waste any more words, he pushed Gao Yang hard and kicked at him. According to his expectation, this kick should at least send Gao Yang to the corner.

Unexpectedly, Gao Yang dodged nimbly with a sidestep and lightly swept his leg. Niu Xuan felt his feet slip and directly did a split in front of Gao Yang.

"Ah..." Niu Xuan screamed, his ligament was severely strained.

Gao Yang extended his hand, "Young Master Xuan is too polite, it's not even New Year and you're already paying respects, let me help you up."

"I don't need your help..." Niu Xuan cursed, enduring the pain, he covered his crotch and shakily stood up. Before he could steady himself, he grabbed a microphone and threw it at Gao Yang.

A female waitress wearing a white rabbit mask had somehow entered the room. She raised her hand lightly and caught the microphone in mid-air, her tone polite, "Sir, please calm down, we can sit down and talk..."

"Get lost! This has nothing to do with you!" Niu Xuan roared.

"I'm sorry, sir, your current behavior violates the rules of our establishment. If you insist on harming this gentleman, I will have to ask you to leave."

"Who the hell are you!" Niu Xuan swung his fist and limped towards the waitress, "Get out of my way..."

"Thud--"

Everything happened so fast, Gao Yang didn't see anything clearly. Niu Xuan had already flown out, hit the wall of the room, bounced onto the sofa, and then rolled onto the floor covered in wine and broken glass, fainting on the spot.

Gao Yang was immediately on alert, and Qing Ling also jumped up from the sofa.

The waitress slightly turned her eyes, looking at Gao Yang and Qing Ling who were on guard. The white rabbit on her face was just a mask, but it seemed to have a life of its own, smiling at them, "Hello, Zodiac, White Rabbit."

"Zodiac?"

"You've met Electric Mouse, right," the girl named White Rabbit took a step forward, "the idiot who has an extraordinary love for arcade games and women's chests."

"Wu Dahai! You're part of the organization?" Gao Yang was overjoyed, finally meeting the organization, so this organization is called "Zodiac".

"Yes." White Rabbit glanced at Qing Ling, "You have a weapon, don't you?"

Qing Ling didn't answer, which was a tacit agreement.

"Test 2."

White Rabbit looked at Niu Xuan at her feet, "Kill this Lost One."
