Chapter 161: Chapter 159 I Abuse Myself

Inside the car, Jiao Xinlei kept teasing Three Cubs. After discovering it wasn’t dangerous, she became interested in it.

One of the main reasons she had chosen to be a pet store cashier was her love for small animals.

Although Three Cubs displayed an extremely aloof demeanor, she still eagerly tended to it.

"Three Cubs is so well-behaved, why would it crawl into someone’s clothes?"

She glared at Wen Wen and said, "It must be you, you pervert, who taught it to do that!"

"You’re really wronging me here, why would I teach it to do that?" Wen Wen said with a bitter smile. This was really an undeserved calamity.

Jiao Xinlei said distrustfully, "You were just smelling scents, it must have been you who taught it."

"You need to be clear about this. I may be a pervert, but I still have normal aesthetic standards. You’re not my type, why would I teach it to climb into your clothes, to make myself uncomfortable?"

Jiao Xinlei was so angered by Wen Wen’s words that she wanted to pinch his arm. No wonder this guy, at his age, still didn’t have a girlfriend with the way he talked so bluntly.

But suddenly, the Song of the Iron Rod sounded, and Wen Wen received a call.

He picked up the phone and saw that it was from Zhao Jinwu.

"What’s up, did you get done what I asked you to do?" Wen Wen asked indifferently.

Zhao Jinwu spoke in a low, fawning voice, "It’s done, it’s done. The ones who were hired are from Cheng Tuzi’s people on the west side of the city, they are the most ruthlessly efficient."

"Efficiency is good, I fear inefficiency," Wen Wen said, nodding with satisfaction. Having Zhao Jinwu handle such matters was convenient.

"The time is today, they’re searching everywhere for you. I didn’t reveal your identity. You just show up at Cheng Tuzi’s territory on the west side, in a conspicuous place, and they’ll come for you."

Wen Wen spoke with Zhao Jinwu a bit more about the details, then said, "Alright, let’s hang up, you won’t miss out on your reward after this is over."

After ending the call, Wen Wen looked at Jiao Xinlei, and then smiled covertly.

Soon after, his expression darkened, and he drove straight toward the west side of the city, leaving Jiao Xinlei puzzled, so much so that she even forgot to keep questioning the issue with Three Cubs.

"What’s gotten into you?"

A look of sorrow appeared on Wen Wen’s face, as if he were a warrior about to face death.

"I’ve gotten myself into trouble."

"What kind of trouble?"

Jiao Xinlei’s eyes widened. What kind of trouble could make him behave this way?

"I can’t say, but could you please drive my car back later?"

Afterwards, Wen Wen fell silent, and a heavy atmosphere permeated the car.

Jiao Xinlei kept asking questions, hoping to help Wen Wen, but he just shook his head and said nothing, which made her even more worried.

Soon, Wen Wen arrived at his destination, in front of a bath center in the west city.

"Wait here. If I don’t come back, you must protect my car."

After that, he got out of the car and swaggered back and forth in front of the bath center entrance, quickly catching the attention of several men chatting nearby.

Their boss had put out a bounty: catch this man, and the reward is ten thousand yuan!

And Wen Wen, appearing oblivious, walked around aimlessly nearby.

Moments later, under Jiao Xinlei’s horrified gaze, a man approached from behind Wen Wen and smacked a brick on the back of his head. Then, several men gathered around, shoved him into a sack, and loaded him into a van.

Jiao Xinlei covered her mouth, panic-stricken, but remembering Wen Wen’s instructions, she didn’t dare to go out.

She could see death, but she had yet to master the ability to fight.

Most superpower users take a long time to discover what abilities they really have and what they can actually do.

This period is the Exploration Realm. Superpower users like Wen Wen, who clearly know their own abilities, are actually quite rare.

After panicking for a while, she calmed down and called Lin Zheyuan immediately.

"Captain Lin, something terrible has happened!"

Hearing Jiao Xinlei’s panicked tone, Lin Zheyuan also became tense, "What’s wrong?"

"Wen Wen has been kidnapped!"

Lin Zheyuan felt a jolt in his heart and anxiously asked, "Who kidnapped him, Profane Blood, Absurd Words, or some other secret organization...?"

"No... it was the gangsters, they are so vicious!" Jiao Xinlei said, choking up.

Lin Zheyuan’s face became calm all of a sudden, and then without replying, he hung up the phone.

Was she trying to pull a fast one on him?

An adult male, you say he was caught by the police, he’d believe that; caught by gangsters, he’d also believe that; but to say he was kidnapped by the ringleader of the toddlers’ class at Beicheng Kindergarten, isn’t that a joke?

Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Jiao Xinlei also calmed down.

She had seen Wen Wen’s terror with her own eyes, such a strong superpower user, how could he possibly be kidnapped by ordinary people...

The reason she was fooled earlier was because the atmosphere Wen Wen had created was too desolate.

Now that she thought about it, Wen Wen was probably playing him.

Otherwise, in such a tense situation, why would he keep emphasizing his car?

...

The sack covering his face was lifted, and Wen Wen could see where he was.

It was a dilapidated factory.

Such a place is not usually seen, but if one intends to find it, it can always be found.

His upper garments were removed, his limbs spread apart, tied with hemp rope and hoisted up, looking very pitiful.

Five men were standing around, and they didn’t look like good people.

These were the thugs that Zhao Jinwu had mentioned over the phone, the real enforcers living in the dark side of society.

The few colorful-haired youngsters that Wilson killed in the subway tunnel, compared with these men, were pure and innocent children.

"Kid, you’re awake."

A man with a scar on his face and a crew cut pinched Wen Wen’s chin, forcing him to raise his head.

Wen Wen feigned a look of terror, staring at Scarface, but there wasn’t a hint of horror in his eyes, he even felt like laughing.

"Heh heh, look how scared this kid is."

Scarface pointed at Wen Wen, laughed loudly twice, and then gave him a lash with a whip, causing the area to bruise immediately.

Wen Wen clenched his teeth and didn’t cry out, he could endure this pain.

"Your muscles are pretty solid, eh? A normal person would have split skin and spilled blood with my whip."

·

Scarface stretched out his hand and vigorously rubbed the wound, expressing his surprise.

To avoid revealing his excessively strong physique, which could compromise the whole kidnapping plan, Wen Wen was currently using the Puppet Master’s constitution.

The fragile body of Xu Hai combined with Wen Wen’s own formidable physique resulted in an effect where one plus one was less than 0.5, ensuring his physical condition wouldn’t stand out too much.

But even after it was reduced, Wen Wen’s physical strength was still much stronger than that of an ordinary person, and he was fully capable of killing these men with his bare hands.

Luckily, these men hadn’t noticed.

The man whipped him two more times, then pointing to a table full of torture tools, he patted Wen Wen’s shoulder and said, "This is just an appetizer, soon you’re going to experience all of these."

"Some boss is offering half a million to see you tortured to death, but it can’t be a simple torture; the more miserable you are, the happier that boss will be."

"We all are dignified people in our everyday lives, but who can quarrel with money, eh? After you die, don’t come looking for me, go find that boss. In your next life, be sure not to offend those you shouldn’t."

The look of terror on Wen Wen’s face finally cracked, replaced by an enchanting smile.

The boss who paid to have him tortured, was none other than himself!
