C56 Captain Yitian Gekka Ming Tried to Murder Us!

"Really?"

Yang Ming let out a cold laugh upon hearing the words. He didn't spare Gong Lizi a glance as he turned and strode away swiftly.

He moved so quickly that his figure vanished in an instant!

"Same old story, huh? But I refuse to believe you can maintain this icy demeanor indefinitely. After all, you're just a five-year-old throwing a fit at heart," Gong Lizi said with a light chuckle, watching Yang Ming's retreating back.

"Boom!"

Suddenly, a thunderous crash echoed. Fifty meters ahead, several bricklayers were sent flying as a three-meter-high wall of bricks on a cart toppled over, scattering across the ground.

The bricks clattered against the steel and concrete, the noise reverberating through the air.

"What happened?"

Gong Lizi stood there, stunned, before quickly rushing to the scene.

He wasn't alone; everyone dropped their work and ran to see what had occurred.

Yang Ming stood at the edge of the construction site, surrounded by red bricks. Ten meters opposite him, four or five workers lay on the ground, appearing gravely injured.

Nearby carts lay toppled over.

The scene was chaotic, with bricks strewn about, people unable to rise, and carts flipped over, resembling the aftermath of a vehicular accident.

Yet, oddly enough, those who were pushing the carts were down, while those who supposedly caused the collision were unscathed.

It was bizarre to witness.

"What's going on here?"

A man with the air of a captain approached and inquired.

"Captain Yoda, Gekka Ming sabotaged us, overturning our cart and causing us to be pelted with bricks. We nearly died. Captain Yoda, you must stand up for us!" cried a man, suddenly sitting up from the ground.

"Indeed, Captain Yoda, Gekka Ming has had it out for us for a while. He resents us for encroaching on his turf and has been plotting to eliminate us. We need your help!"

"This man can't be allowed to stay. If one day he actually takes a life, it'll be too late for regrets!"

"We were fortunate this time, but who's to say our luck will hold? We implore you, Captain Yoda, to deliver justice!"

The other three quickly scrambled to their feet, their cries filling the air.

The team leader's gaze immediately shifted to Yang Ming.

Yang Ming's expression was icy as he regarded the quintet with a flash of scorn in his eyes.

The group consisted of Tajima Ang, Little Yuan Pei, Takashimoto Shou, and the squad leader, Yoda Ayumu.

Like Yang Ming, Tajima Ang and his companions were bricklayers, with Yoda Ayumu being the one who had brought them on board.

He effectively served as their supervisor.

Since Yang Ming's arrival, he had been working at a pace that outdid a dozen others—fast, high-quality, and efficient. Consequently, the workload for these four had drastically decreased. Over time, their resentment towards Yang Ming grew, and they plotted to eliminate him.

After all, Yang Ming was taking their livelihoods!

Yang Ming remained indifferent to their animosity. Unexpectedly, today he found himself unable to hold back, deciding to confront them head-on.

The four had orchestrated this moment with precision. Given their skill at deception, how could they expect Yang Ming, a man of his size, to miss it?

Moreover, Yoda Ayumu had materialized immediately after the incident, as though he had been lying in wait.

While Gong Lizi, who was nearest, needed more than a dozen steps to arrive, Yoda Ayumu was there in a blink.

His intentions were clear as day.

Yet, Yang Ming wasn't interested in their petty schemes. With his current capabilities, their little ploy was nothing more than child's play, unworthy of his attention.

As the noise attracted an increasing crowd, onlookers began to buzz with speculation upon witnessing the scene.

Gong Lizi, too, hastened to the scene, her brow furrowing at the sight.

Her keen instincts left no doubt in her mind about the nature of the unfolding drama.
