Chapter 1038: Chapter 18 Redemption

The unfortunate sap struck by the swing spun like a top, his body suspended in mid-air before even hitting the ground; he was smashed in the chest by the baseball bat wielded by Tang Zheng, lost consciousness immediately, and slumped onto the ground like a sack of mud.

These hippies had no dreams, idled their lives away, living like the walking dead. People of certain status dared not provoke them, so they only bullied prostitutes, vagrants, and made fun of them for entertainment.

Although these people were still young, they were spiritually decayed. Seeing their skilled methods of abusing prostitutes, it was clear they had done it often, so Tang Zheng felt no need to go easy on them. A baseball bat swung with a whoosh, creating a blur of motion.

The hippies were like struck by a high-speed train, tumbling through the air like rag dolls. The sound of bones breaking and screams filled the night street, carrying far and wide.

Seeing their severely wounded companions sprawled on the ground, the women were terrified. One of them turned to run, only to be hit in the back of the leg by the baseball bat thrown by Tang Zheng, causing her to face-plant, scraping her knees on the asphalt road, and cry out in pain.

"Take off all the metal jewelry on your heads," said Tang Zheng, his icy gaze sweeping over the women who were nearly covered in ear and nose piercings. "Didn’t you hear me?"

At his feet, a young man groaned, struggling to pull out a butterfly knife from his chest and stab at Tang Zheng’s ankle.

"Watch out!" Aihara Chiharu covered her lips and had just shouted the warning when she saw the group leader, who appeared to be about her age, kick the attacker; the assailant flew several meters before slamming into a telegraph pole, completely knocked out.

The women were subdued by Tang Zheng’s violence and hurried to remove their jewelry. Out of fear and shaking hands, one girl accidentally ripped off part of her earlobe, bleeding profusely.

"Meiqin, Yuanxiang, it’s all yours now," said Tang Zheng. He didn’t hit women, and he had to leave some ’soup’ for others, "After a fight, I gained more than ten Sin Points. Strip them bare for me. Sekiya, you alright?"

"I’m fine!" Sekiya Ganta was already helped up by his comrades.

Upon hearing Tang Zheng’s words, Zhang Heng and Yin Zhijian, who had been eager to join in, charged out, raining punches and kicks on the hippies and then rummaged through their wallets.

The slaps resounded from the women’s side too, as Teng Yuangxiang ordered them to line up and slapped each one in turn. Watching them silently bear the slaps without retort, Teng Yuangxiang felt a thrill of pleasure, "This is the life," she thought.

"I’m starting to like this city," Teng Yuangxiang licked her lips, eyeing a woman’s nose, "Didn’t you hear the group leader’s order?"

The woman, remembering she still wore a nose ring, hurried to remove it, but she was too slow.

Teng Yuangxiang suddenly reached out, grabbed the silver nose ring with a half-centimeter radius, and yanked it off, tearing off a piece of flesh as well.

Ah, the woman screamed, blood pouring into her mouth.

"Humph," Teng Yuangxiang snorted coldly, wiped her fingers on the woman’s clothes, and dropped the nose ring onto the road, where it clinked softly.

"Pervert!" Pang Meiqin cast a sideways glance at Teng Yuangxiang and, looking at her slightly trembling hands, felt disgusted. This woman was a complete sadist, mentally unstable, actually getting a thrill from the sight of blood.

"Hehe, my Sin Points went up!" Teng Yuangxiang was all set to proceed when Dantai stopped her.

"It’s time to retreat, we don’t want to attract policemen," Dantai said, not wanting to deal with policemen yet.

"Are you okay?" Aihara Chiharu, the kindhearted girl, ran over to free the prostitute tied to the telegraph pole.

Tang Zheng’s wristwatch immediately sounded a loud warning from the Red Trojan Horse.

"Aihara Chiharu saved a person, 30 Sin Points deducted; currently in negative. Please make up the deficit within one hour, or elimination will be administered."

The cold, merciless voice, mixed with the moans of pain all around, sent shivers down one’s spine.

Sure enough, Tang Zheng and Dantai exchanged glances because they were worried about this very issue, which is why they had not taken the initiative to release the prostitutes.

Aihara Chiharu’s arm froze, and she looked at Sekiya Ganta with worry and fear, naturally turning to him for help in times of trouble.

"Group Leader, please help Aihara!" The time was running out, and with no options left, Sekiya turned to Tang Zheng for help.

"Group Leader!" Aihara Chiharu wasn’t dumb. With tears in her eyes, she looked at Tang Zheng like a wounded wild cat.

"Red, is there any way to quickly earn enough points? After fighting all night, I’ve only accrued a little over 40 points. Aihara definitely can’t make it," Tang Zheng had been planning to ask. Red was much more approachable than Silver.

"Who did you save? Just torment her severely again, and you’ll have it. In this city, the more you violate morals and laws, the faster Sin Points increase. Acts like repaying kindness with cruelty, for instance. Tang Zheng, only because you are a good person am I sharing this especially with you, others would have to spend points to find this out," Red divulged, "It’s a perk for being the good group leader."

Teng Yuangxiang envied Tang Zheng’s status, while Zhang Heng and Yin Zhijian got even more reckless, reluctant only because of Pang Meiqin’s presence, otherwise they’d have been all over those women by now.

"So, this is forcing us to become bad guys?" Aihara Chiharu cried.

"Don’t do it, then go ahead and die," was the simple and brutal rule of the Trojan Room, abide by it or die.
