Chapter 49: Chapter 48: Earth
Thinking back to the bulging wallet on the train last time, which must have had thousands of yuan, and how this kid had swallowed it all, and even caused him to end up in the police station, he felt a pang of agony. Although he was released on the same day, he had never felt so humiliated in his life. If he hadn’t run into him again, he might have let it go, but now that he did, he thought he must teach this kid a lesson and let him know that Lai Shitou was not someone to be trifled with.
It’s nothing special, these salespeople just know how to exaggerate and praise their products to death.
After playing with his phone for a while and trying out each feature, Xiao Yi couldn’t help but stretch and yawn.
Hmph, even the photos are not that impressive. What about eight megapixels? There isn’t much difference from three hundred thousand pixels.
He looked at the photos he had just taken to test the features again, yawned once more, casually deleted the photos, and then threw his phone into his pocket. He looked up at the sky and quickened his pace toward Azure Waterfront.
Compared to playing with this phone, he felt it more interesting to go home and practice his cooking skills.
"Kid!"
Just as Xiao Yi had started to walk faster, he heard a loud reprimand coming from nearby.
On hearing this voice, Xiao Yi paused briefly then continued walking. He thought the person wasn’t calling him since he didn’t recognize the voice, and anyone who knew him wouldn’t call out to him so rudely.
"You little brat, stop right there!"
The person who had shouted did not expect Xiao Yi to ignore him and keep walking, which immediately flared his temper, and he shouted angrily as he hurriedly chased after him.
"Are you calling me?"
This time, Xiao Yi stopped because he had to. The shouting man had already rushed to the front and was blocking his path directly, causing him to look at the blond-haired, sharp-faced guy in front of him, who looked like a real-life Golden Monkey.
"Nonsense, who else could it be? Do you see anyone else around here?"
The fellow who resembled a Golden Monkey looked at Xiao Yi’s bewildered face, noting his completely unafraid expression, and snapped irritably.
"Oh, besides these few brothers, it seems like there’s really no one else."
Xiao Yi surveyed the surroundings where, aside from a few men holding clubs and dressed similarly to the Golden Monkey in front of him, there were only a few middle-aged women with bags walking by in the distance. He touched his nose thoughtfully.
"You little brat, you’ve got some nerve, messing with our Brother Shitou’s plans!"
The Golden Monkey, expecting Xiao Yi to turn pale and beg for mercy once he took in the scene, was instead surprised to see him standing there calmly. Irritated, he shouted loudly.
"Brother Shitou?"
Xiao Yi frowned, wondering if the guy driving the electric tricycle today was called Brother Shitou, or maybe it was the man driving the van yesterday?
How did they find him so fast? Could it be that he was tracked earlier and didn’t know it? That didn’t make sense. If someone was following him, he would surely have noticed.
"You little brat, you’ve got some nerve messing with my business. You’d better hand over that wallet from the other day. I might consider leaving you with one arm intact today as a settlement."
Just as Xiao Yi was pondering how these people had found him, suddenly a pompous voice rang out from around a corner.
"It turns out to be you, brother. We really are fated, aren’t we? We manage to meet everywhere."
Hearing this voice, Xiao Yi was suddenly enightened. He thought about how he had been worrying needlessly just moments ago and almost burst into laughter. He had noticed the shifty thief behind him earlier, but he had been too lazy to pay him any attention. After all, this wasn’t the first time he had seen him behaving this way. When that group of people showed up, he hadn’t thought about the thief who was still hiding around that corner.
Unexpectedly, these people had turned out to be the ones the thief had summoned. This gave Xiao Yi a somewhat newfound respect for the thief, realizing that the little guy had some connections and could even call a few punks to bolster his ranks.
With this in mind, he couldn’t help but raise his head, looking at the smug, sleazy thief in front of him with a smirk.
"Kid, don’t try to get cozy with me," the sleazy thief said, "I’m telling you, that won’t work on me. You better hand over your wallet obediently. Otherwise, hmph!"
The sleazy thief thought Xiao Yi was scared by this scene and was trying to cozy up to him to get off lightly. His expression grew even more smug, his tone became even stronger, uttering a cold snort and a look that said ’you know the consequences.’
"Right, kid, hand over my cousin’s wallet! Spare your life!"
Golden Monkey also proudly chimed in from the side.
"You guys are cousins?"
Hearing Golden Monkey’s words, Xiao Yi let his gaze wander over the two men, displaying a somewhat peculiar expression on his face.
"Yes, Shitou is my second cousin Li Dafa!"
Golden Monkey, unaware of the odd look in Xiao Yi’s eyes, boasted proudly, "Hmph, you dared to mess with Shitou’s good fortune, you must be really unlucky!"
"That explains it. When I saw how sleazy you looked just now, I wondered why you seemed so familiar. Turns out you guys are all family."
Xiao Yi struggled to force down the laughter brewing in his belly, maintaining a serious demeanor as he nodded, feigning revelation.
"You little scumbag, you’re courting death!"
Even the slow-witted Golden Monkey could tell by Xiao Yi’s expression that he was mocking him, and he flew into a rage. This bastard, on the brink of death, still dared to play him! It was simply unbearable!
Especially when he heard the remark about his sleazy appearance, it directly stung him to his core. He was always particularly sensitive to comments about his looks. Roaring angrily, he raised the steel pipe in his hand and aimed it at Xiao Yi’s forehead.
"Smack!"
Xiao Yi watched as Golden Monkey, with steel pipe in hand, charged towards him. Without a second thought, he lifted his foot and kicked.
As Golden Monkey with the steel pipe neared Xiao Yi’s forehead, he suddenly felt a force against his chest, and then he was soaring as if gravity had let go of him. The steel pipe grew farther away from Xiao Yi’s forehead. Before he could even enjoy the sensation of riding the clouds, he felt his body intimately contact the ground, his body seemingly falling apart, each part—hands, legs, face—all equally searing with pain.
