Chapter 506 - I Hope So
A few minutes later, acting like a normal customer, Virus followed him into the building. When he was inside, a woman full of elegance and respect came to greet him as she led him through the corridor.
Throughout the whole journey into the brothel, Virus released and maintained his sense of awareness so as to get a full image of the interior of the brothel.
Gradually, a basic map of the structure of the brothel was exhibiting itself in his mindscape. The brothel s.p.a.ce was divided into various equal compartment rooms while within each one the customers were either busy drinking with the company of beautiful ladies or they were occupied f.u.c.king them.
However, none of that attracted Virus" attention. Rather, his target was Blaze as he continued searching for his current position until he found him sitting in a particular luxury room while drinking.
Immediately, he went ahead and focused his awareness on the left and right sides of Blaze"s compartment only to realize that while the left side was occupied, the s.p.a.ce on the right was empty with no one inside.
"I want to sit there." Pointing at the s.p.a.ce, Virus said.
"Ah, I apologize dear customer, but all those rooms in that area are specified for VIP customers who pay a monthly members.h.i.+p fee." Unfortunately, the woman guide rejected him. Apparently, that section was for the rich.
After the refusal, inspecting the area more attentively, Virus noticed that the services and the women there were of higher quality compared to the ones on the regular side.
Afterward, the two tread through the corridor until the lady pointed at an ordinary compartment with nothing worth mentioning about it. "Since you"re a common customer, you can sit there."
"Alright." As it was his first time, Virus didn"t want to insist on taking the s.p.a.ce beside Blaze since doing so may expose him. Thus, entering the shown room, Virus sat behind the small table.
All around the table, a soft mattress was laid down for the customers to sit down, eat, drink, and have fun.
"Umm, sir, what would you like to have?" Slightly tilting her head, she awaited her reply.
"Just bring me a cup of tea." Virus" choise was simple.
"Yes, would you like one of our women in your lodging?" Since most men that paid a visit to this location had only one purpose in mind, the female guide didn"t need to sleep on the matter before asking.
"No, I"ll just drink a cup of tea before leaving, though I"ll be back again. I"m here to gauge the brothel"s quality and see whether it"s worth my time and money. " Coming up with that random excuse, Virus rejected.
"I understand." Confirming his orders, the guide was about to turn around and go away when Virus stopped her in her tracks.
"Oh, wait. I"ve got a question." Remembering something, Virus forced the guide to pause again.
"I"m all ears, dear customer."
"How do I become a VIP customer, how much does it cost?"
In reaction to Virus" inquiry, a glint of interest was inflamed in the lady"s eyes as she began elaborating at once, "Ah, the monthly fee for the VIP members.h.i.+p is five hundred Qi Ingots of first-grade, that"s the only requirement."
"Since you asked about the VIP members.h.i.+p, let me tell you about its major benefits." When she mentioned the possible advantages of being a VIP, Virus perceived an odd glimmer of joy flickering inside her pupils.
In great enthusiasm, the lady elucidated the topic. "If you become a VIP customer, as a bonus you will receive the best treatment in our facility taking from food to your sitting s.p.a.ce, but the main benefit is that our VIP section has its own unique women which are of top-quality. Furthermore, we can even prepare new and fresh women according to your desires and fantasies."
"Hmm? What do you mean?"
"For instance, if you are interested in your neighbor"s daughter, we can get her for you, or even if you like your friend"s wife, we can bring her to you as well." Maintaining her kind and straight face, she was able to utter such brutal and savage words.
"Hmm, there must be a dangerous gang or organization backing this place." Concluding that, Virus voiced. "Got it, thanks for the explanations."
"You"re most welcome, dear customer." Knowing that he may be a potential VIP client, the receiver lady"s att.i.tude had become a lot better now. "I"ll send your tea to your room."
…
After the arrival of his ordered tea, Virus proceeded to drink his tea quietly. His goal for tonight was partially accomplished and the rest was left for another day since rus.h.i.+ng in the task of stalking someone was a big no and a huge giveaway.
Nonetheless, it took him only a single sip to realize the tea of the brothel wasn"t really anything good, though it was still better than the tea of the Decent Inn. Thus, emptying the cup halfway, Virus stood up and left the place.
After leaving, instead of going back to the inn, Virus" next destination was the opening ceremony of his store.
When he got there, however, he noticed that Archibald and Augustus had long opened the door to the general populace and right now, they were sitting behind the counter silently.
"Hmm, what"s with the silence? Don"t you two know how to talk?" With that, Virus ambled inside.
"Boss, you"re here!" Archibald rose to his feet as he rushed forward to greet him.
At the same time, releasing a helpless sigh, he started reporting an issue, "Phew, boss, it"s been several hours since we inaugurated the shop, but not a single customer has visited so far. None at all!"
"Don"t worry, old man, it"s just the first day." a.s.suming this phenomenon to be entirely normal, Virus rea.s.sured the old guy. "We only need one person to come, buy something from us, and then spread the word to everyone else."
"I seriously hope so…"
