C28 Go Back

To tell the truth, I had really made up my mind to make this decision. Even though I seemed to be very generous, my heart was still in turmoil. Heaven knows if those two will know my background, but I can only gamble in this situation. Who told me to want to know my background so much?

Elder Wang didn't say much about what I was thinking. It was as if he already expected me to make this choice and just told me to do it well. He didn't give me any further suggestions or opinions. Elder Wang is a martial artist, after all, he has trained for his entire life, but no matter what, he has been practicing martial arts for more than ten years. If he can't even beat that Zhang Peng, what can I do to challenge him? The thought gave me a headache.

Just when I was having a headache, the boss came back from shopping. Seeing that I was bare-chested, they burst into laughter. Boss laughed as he said, "Seventh Brother, how are you taking care of Elder Wang? Is your entire being made Elder Wang rub your back!"

I'd really like to find a hole in the ground to hide in. Luckily, Elder Wang helped me explain, "What's wrong? There's a bump on Seventh Bro's back. Let me show him, you little bastards. Stop bullshitting on him!"

Elder Wang's words had a lot of weight, the bosses immediately suppressed a smile and said: "Elder Wang, we bought everything back, but we bumped into Ol 'Five on the way out of the police station. However, we also heard that just now, those two people who were causing trouble in our store were seen on the street. They were chasing after them all the way to the outskirts of the town. "

Hearing that, Elder Wang said, "These two people really know how to run. It's alright. We don't need to worry about that matter. Leave it to Li Gang and the others at the police station to settle it." Come on, boys, hurry up and set up the tables and chairs. We still have to do business tomorrow.

The moment Elder Wang finished his words, we all went back to work. Before I left, Elder Wang tugged at me: "Seventh Brother, don't be rash. Just wait in the shop for the next few days. They will come back sooner or later, and I'll look after you when that time comes!"

I nodded and didn't say anything else. I went straight out and followed the rest of the group to clear up the tables and chairs.

As for the chase between Lei Zhen and Zhang Peng, from the town to the suburbs, Zhang Peng was still unable to catch up with Lei Zhen. Although Zhang Peng was stronger than Lei Zhen in combat, Lei Zhen still had the upper hand in running.

The two of them weren't really "martial artists." They were Adepts from the Adept Association. In more detail, they should be B-class bounties from the Adept Association. The reason they'd clashed this time was entirely because of that ring. As bounty hunters, they often took on missions from the base of the Discipline Association. This time, they both received a mission — — search for the missing ring. According to the orders, this ring was stolen by a masked expert, and the target was wandering near Qize's town. At that time, it was Zhang Peng who issued the first mission. Lei Zhen was waiting quietly on the side for the opportunity to arrive. While Zhang Peng and that masked master were fighting to the death, Lei Zhen suddenly appeared and snatched away the ring.

In fact, according to the special ability association's mission announcement request, they couldn't possibly accept the same mission. It was just that the publisher had been extremely anxious, so he had issued two missions overnight. One was to kill the masked man, and the other was to retrieve the ring. If that wasn't the case, Lei Zhen and Zhang Peng wouldn't have been able to fight each other.

Lei Zhen and Zhang Peng ran from the town to the suburbs, fighting and fighting along the way. Although they were adepts, they were tired since they were humans. It was impossible for them to maintain such a high intensity combat style like robots. The first one to bear the brunt of the attack was Zhang Peng. As he chased after Lei Zhen, he panted heavily. He was no longer as relaxed as before. He turned around and looked at Zhang Peng, who was in hot pursuit. He felt angry and shouted as he ran: "Damn it, Zhang Peng, have you lost your head? Did you chase after me for so long? "Is it an extra mission?"

Zhang Peng shouted at the same time, "I just want to beat you up, you make me hate you!"

These words were like adding oil to fire to Lei Zhen. He stopped and turned around with a roundhouse kick. His feet were burning red as he performed his special ability, Fire Manipulation!

Zhang Peng was caught off guard and had to raise his arms to block. He saw that under Lei Zhen's kick, Zhang Peng was forced to retreat in a sorry state. Seeing that Zhang Peng did not react, Lei Zhen immediately seized the opportunity. A barrage of attacks came one after another, beating Zhang Peng until he was forced to retreat again and again. He almost did not have the ability to fight back.

However, Zhang Peng's ability was still higher than Lei Zhen's after all. Although he was not used to it in the beginning, but after holding on for a while, Zhang Peng gradually seized the initiative. Seeing Lei Zhen's attack, Zhang Peng moved sideways to block. After some entanglement, Lei Zhen was still sent flying by Zhang Peng's kick. He laid on the grass without even having the strength to get up.

Lei Zhen knew that he wouldn't be able to get away with it, so he said shamelessly, "Forget it, I'm scared of you. I'll give you the ring, and after getting beaten up by you just now, I'll compensate you, okay?"

Zhang Peng snorted: "If you had already handed over the ring, would I have gone through the trouble? Hitting you once is letting you off easy! "

Actually, it wasn't that Zhang Peng didn't want to kill them, but no matter what the reason was clearly stated by the Discipline Association, bounty hunters within the association were not allowed to kill each other. Every bounty hunter had special sensors on them. If one of them died, it would appear on the map instantly. If it wasn't for this surveillance, these bounty hunters would have died just for a mission. That would've been too inconvenient for the development of the association.

Lei Zhen rummaged through his pockets in surprise: "Hey, didn't you take the ring away already? I don't have any on me! "

Zhang Peng had a look of disbelief on his face: "Stop lying to me, hurry up and take out the ring, do you want to get beaten up again?"

Lei Zhen really couldn't find the ring this time. He said with a serious face, "Is there any need for me to lie to you at this time? "I really can't find it. I clearly had it at that restaurant just now!"

He lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said, "How about this, we'll follow the same route and pay attention to our surroundings. If there isn't any on the road, I think we might have fallen into that restaurant, but the premise is that you didn't lie to me."

Lei Zhen smiled bitterly: "Bro, I'm already at this stage, is there a need to lie to you?"

Zhang Peng didn't waste any more time talking. He supported Lei Zhen and went back the way they came from.

At the moment, I didn't know that Zhang Peng and Lei Zhen were coming back. I was still busy in the restaurant. The day had passed, and although there wasn't much business in the store, there were too many broken tables and chairs during the day. At the same time, we had to arrange all the new tables and chairs neatly. It took the few of us a good deal of work, and nearly an hour to get everything done after dinner.

After packing up properly, the boss stretched his back and said, "No, but I'm so tired. All the work I've done this day has caught up to what I've done for a month! I want to get a good night's sleep! "

Hearing this, Ol 'Three laughed out loud. "Boss, you're too weak. How can you get tired just by doing a little work? How will you get a wife in the future? "

Ol 'Three's words caused us to laugh out loud. Even Elder Wang, who was resting in the room, walked out and said, "You little bastards sure know how to joke around. Have you guys finished your work?"

We answered and the boss said: "Elder Wang, are you feeling better?"

Elder Wang waved his hand: "Don't worry about it. It's almost done. You guys should go to bed early after the work is done. We still have to open the door for business tomorrow. Don't lose your spirit tomorrow!"

Boss agreed and went to rest. Just as he was about to leave, he was stopped by Elder Wang: "Seventh Brother, wait a moment, I have something to tell you."

I guessed that Elder Wang was probably just telling me about the ring. After everyone left, Elder Wang said in a low voice, "Sleep with me tonight, I think those two young people will come back to find the ring. You will have some help with me, so that you won't be afraid!"

I really didn't think that Elder Wang would love me so much. I immediately said: "No need, Elder Wang. I'm just a kid, they won't make things difficult for me, right? At most, I'll just give them the ring! "

Elder Wang shook his head. "It's not that simple. Do you think they are good men or women?"

Without waiting for me to say anything, a annoying voice came from outside the door, "Haha, we aren't some kind of pious couple!"
