Doomsday Wonderland Chapter 962: Priceless Treasure – Vacuum Cleaner

Chapter 962: Priceless Treasure – Vacuum Cleaner

If this were a compet.i.tion for who was more unremarkable, then the two of them would be evenly matched at this moment.

The two crudely unattractive faces locked eyes for a moment, and Lin Sanjiu inexplicably felt a strange sense of camaraderie with the middle-aged janitor—underneath that face, he must lead a quiet life where no one paid much attention, right? No wonder she found him familiar. She didn’t expect to have a mask that happened to resemble him. It wasn’t that their facial features were similar, but rather the feeling of “worn-out and greasy”… It was just too similar.

She cleared her throat but didn’t say anything. Just then, the Night Wanderer member from before also walked a few steps closer and said, “Hey, wait, let him—eh, do you live here?”

“Don’t worry,” Lin Sanjiu rea.s.sured him, “I don’t need him to clean the room.”

The middle-aged janitor’s rough, dark face stretched long, showing no signs of happiness because of her words.

“You’ve been hanging around here, right? My friend lives in this room. Do you know where he went?” she turned to the janitor and the Night Wanderer member and asked.

The young member shook his head uninterestedly.

“No idea,” the janitor replied with bullet-like words, as if he wished he could pin others with each word, “I have to go. I have something urgent!”

“What urgent matter do you have?” the young person persisted, refusing to give up. “Just do the cleaning, and I’ll pay you.”

“You—” The janitor made an “M” sound with his mouth but quickly changed his tune, his expression wrinkling in disgust. “Fine, how about this? You do the cleaning yourself, and I’ll pay you!”

Taking advantage of the young person’s momentary surprise, the janitor immediately turned and walked away. As he pa.s.sed by Lin Sanjiu, she grabbed his shoulder. The janitor twisted his body, his expression contorted in disgust. “Don’t touch me!”

“Ah, sorry. But your vacuum cleaner,” Lin Sanjiu kindly reminded him, “did you forget to take it?”

The janitor looked down at his hands and couldn’t help but exclaim in surprise, his face full of astonishment and confusion. “I had it in my hands just now… Strange… Where did it go?”

“Did you put it down when you came over and then forget?” Lin Sanjiu suggested, seemingly helpful. “You should go back and check.”

Seeing him hurriedly running back in the direction he came from, the Night Wanderer member also gave up and glanced at Lin Sanjiu before turning and leaving. After taking a few steps, the person suddenly stopped, turned around, and asked aimlessly, “There were two people, right? Which one?”

Lin Sanjiu was taken aback but quickly understood. “…Stan, I’m looking for Stan.”

“Oh, it seems like his group was called away for a mission,” the young person furrowed their brows, thinking for a moment. “I’m not entirely sure, but there seems to be some commotion somewhere, and they need manpower… I heard there was trouble. You can ask around for more information.”

“Thank you!”

“I can help you inquire as well,” the young person smiled unexpectedly, surprisingly willing to help. “But you’ll have to clean the area for me later, how about that?”

Lin Sanjiu felt a little embarra.s.sed all of a sudden. Before she could decide how to respond, the person waved their hand as if they had made up their mind and walked away casually.

She didn’t expect them to be so sharp.

As long as Octo returned, she was confident that she could quickly follow him into the room before he could react. Once the door was locked, she would be able to dig out all the information she wanted to know from Octo’s mouth.

Since the peculiar and cruel end of the world descended like a dream, Lin Sanjiu had seen and experienced a lot. However, the ability to completely transform someone’s appearance into that of another person, to the point where even the target themselves couldn’t distinguish between real and fake—she had only seen it in one person.

Aside from Luther, she hadn’t even seen a Special Item with a similar effect.

She suddenly thought that if Luther were still the same young man as before, he would probably be very proud of this ability, wouldn’t he?

Lin Sanjiu chuckled bitterly.

Considering that Twelve was also on the s.h.i.+p, the reason why Octo could transform into Stan Smith was likely due to Luther’s help. She didn’t know the relations.h.i.+p between them, but it didn’t matter. As long as she waited for Octo, everything would soon become clear.

“I’m telling you,” a girl’s voice echoed from the end of the corridor, vibrant and filled with warmth, although not as cheerful as before, “Today’s events are not that simple. I heard that several people are missing, disappeared. I don’t know if they are injured or what…”

Lin Sanjiu looked up and happened to see Lyanna and Octo’s roommate walking together. Of course, the little girl didn’t recognize her. She frowned, glanced at her a few times, and muttered as she walked past, “Strange, did we call for a janitor?”
