Chapter 144 Lock Them Up

“Finally! I thought you died in the tower.” The brawny man sneered at Wang Wen and said, “Do you remember me?”

Wang Wen, naturally, could not forget the person in front of him. He nodded and said, “I thought the Tiansheng Group would be the first to look for me. I didn’t expect it to be you guys.”

“Tiansheng?” Brawny Man was stunned. “Which Tiansheng?”

“If there’s nothing else, you can continue.” Wang Wen rubbed his stomach. “I’m in a hurry. And I’m very hungry.”

Brawny Man snorted. He shook his head and sighed. “I thought you were only not afraid of death. I didn’t expect you to be brainless. Why can’t you see that stance? I’ve already given you advice in the tower. The Yuelun group is not to be taken lightly!”

Wang Wen yawned as he covered her mouth. “So?” he asked, his eyes misty.

“So, if you pay me 18 points and kneel to beg my forgiveness, I will pretend nothing happened.” Brawny Man took a step forward, leading a few men forward.

Wang Wen shook his head. “I decline. If you want to fight, you should do it right away. It just so happens that I have to go to the Regional Security Department to file a report. Simultaneously, I will defend myself.”

“Fight?” Brawny Man waved at the people beside him and laughed viciously. “Beat him to death!”

The Yuelun Group’s men drew their weapons. They had sticks and machetes. Brawny Man even revealed a black pistol that was tied to his waist.

Wang Wen looked at the pistol and asked, “Why do you use a gun?”

He suddenly understood the feeling that he had once had.

If it was a fight, then it was a fight.

Why would he use a gun?

Did he look down on Wang Wen?

His question stunned everyone else.

His subsequent actions made everyone’s bodies tremble.

Wang Wen took out a small silver pistol from his personal belongings. The nearest thug in front of me immediately changed his expression. He stared at the gun thoughtfully, trying to determine whether it was real or fake.

However, Wang Wen casually put the small pistol on the ground and said to Brawny Man, “Don’t use a gun. It’s not pretty.”

Brawny Man was stunned and then sneered, “Are you kidding me? Kill him!”

The thug kicked the small pistol away and immediately swung his knife at Wang Wen’s shoulder and neck.

Halfway through that, he suddenly realized that the knife in his hand was gone.

The thug was very confused and turned his head to look for it. He found that the knife had fallen to the ground.

He wanted to bend down to pick it up, but he could no longer straighten his back. He took two steps back in a daze and fell to the ground.

Soon, he fell into a coma.

The rest of the thugs were shocked. Some of them crouched to check the condition of the unconscious man, while others raised their weapons and attacked Wang Wen.

After only a few blows, the thugs were on the ground.

The only survivors were those who crouched to check on the unconscious man. They were so scared that they fell to the ground.

Brawny Man stepped back, drew his pistol, and pointed at Wang Wen with trembling fingers.

He wanted to aim, but he could not control his trembling.

He simply closed his eyes and fired randomly.

After the first shot, he felt that his entire body was weak, and he saw stars. That time, not only was he unable to aim, but he also found it difficult to stand.

After his world was turned upside down, Brawny Man fell to the ground. As he looked at Wang Wen, who was slowly picking up the small silver pistol and walking toward him, he asked, “What skill was that?”

Wang Wen wiped the dust off the small pistol and answered, “Poison.”

Brawny Man did not believe it. “How was that possible? I did not see you take the poison at all! Furthermore, I was so far away!

“If I were you, I would still be able to see the poison.” Wang Wen smiled. “What nonsense.”

He did not stay any longer. He walked past the crowd and slowly walked to a well-known restaurant on the business street. He ordered two ducks, beef, mutton, pork, chicken, and fish dishes. Then, he added some vegetables, beans, skins, and noodles to the order before settling the bill and getting someone to send them to the Regional Security Department.

The total cost was more than 2,000 points.

It was incredibly generous. An ordinary person might not even have that much for a month’s living expenses.

However, that was not even a fraction of Wang Wen’s money.

After ordering, he followed the food delivery robot and chatted as they walked toward the Regional Security Department.

Their conversation went like that.

Wang Wen asked, “How’s business at your restaurant recently? Have you lost a lot of customers?”

“Two servings of duck, Regional Security Department, recipient Wang Wen,” the food delivery robot said in response.

Wang Wen said, “The academy is being rebuilt. It will get better in the future. Don’t give up.”

“Two servings of duck, Regional Security Department, recipient Wang Wen,” the food delivery robot said in response.

Wang Wen said, “I wonder if Old Jiang and the others have missed me. It’s been a while since we last met.”

The robot said nothing.

One man and one mechanical ball arrived at the Regional Security Department.

There were still guards at the door who recognized Wang Wen.

They greeted him warmly.

It was two o’clock in the morning.

There were only a few people on duty in the Regional Security Department.

There were mostly new faces.

Some of the people who remembered Wang Wen nodded with a smile. Those who did not know him asked the senior next to them. Why did he have such a significant presence? It was as if the Regional Security Department were his home.

Then, the new guards soon understood why he had such a presence.

The ball that followed Wang Wen took out two pots from its stomach, tiptoed, and placed them on the table. Then, it took out a bunch of ingredients and sorted them neatly.

The atmosphere in the Regional Security Department instantly changed.

People who worked all night were usually hungry.

Their most recent meal was at five or six o’clock in the evening. It had been almost eight hours since then. Those who were well-off would buy some snacks to fill their stomachs, while those who were not well-off would drink water to fill their bellies.

How could they resist the temptation of having a hotpot in the middle of the night?

All the old acquaintances unceremoniously moved their spoons to add more food to the pot.

The new guards were unfamiliar with Wang Wen, so they looked at him shyly from afar.

Wang Wen invited them over to eat together, but they refused.

They found an excuse to show that they were still busy.

Wang Wen smiled and did not say anything more. He continued to fish for beef in the pot that was already boiling. As he ate, he asked, “Is Deputy Chief Jiang not here? Where does he live?”

An old acquaintance chewed on the fish and tofu and said, “The regional competition is about to begin. Old Jiang is leading his people to climb the tower. The guide you wrote has helped them climb 250 floors. He was trying his best to get a good ranking in that competition!”

Another old acquaintance next to him picked up a piece of mutton and dipped it into a bowl of chili sauce, and stuffed it into his mouth. With a satisfied smile, he said, “You’re late. Deputy Chief Jiang and the others had just left for the tower. “They haven’t been gone for long.”

Before he could finish his sentence, a familiar voice came from the door.

The voice roared, “Quick, give us a hand! This is too much! Someone committed murder right next to the academy’s teleportation gate. They don’t even care for the Regional Security Department!”

The guards put down the bowls and ran to the door to help.

Deputy Chief Jiang led four team members to each pull and support two or three unconscious people. Some were awake. The more they talked, the louder their voices became.

“Why did the Yuelun Group invest so much money in trash like you?” And so forth.

As soon as they entered the hall, they noticed Wang Wen, who was alone with the hotpot. They were taken aback and pointed to Wang Wen. For a long time, they were speechless.

Wang Wen made Deputy Chief Jiang very happy. The rage on his face had faded. “Why are you so free today?” he exclaimed happily. “Have you solved the problem?”

Wang Wen did not even have time to say anything.

The few people by the door were scared when they saw the harmonious look between the guards and Wang Wen. They quietly retreated out the door.

When Wang Wen’s old acquaintances saw that, they had already guessed the situation.

Jiang Dali, Deputy Chief Jiang’s capable subordinate, took a step and stopped in front of them. “Were you talking about him?” he asked, raising his chin.

A few of them shook their heads and apologized. “It is fine, it is fine.”

Deputy Chief Jiang noticed Wang Wen’s playful smile. When he turned around, he finally realized what had happened. He casually waved his hand at the guards and said, “Lock them up!”
