237: Chapter 237 Changing Strategy for Resources 237: Chapter 237 Changing Strategy for Resources The burly man was clearly the type looking for trouble, a bottom-feeder among the students, with a bulky build that intimidated others.

“I don’t care which class you’re from, it’s our class’s turn to do the experiment, and you need to get out now,” said the burly man, standing in front of Xiang Yu with an air of arrogance.

Seeing that they were just about to reach the final step and now someone was causing trouble, Xiang Yu felt a surge of annoyance.

But since the other party was just an ordinary college student, Xiang Yu didn’t want to get physical, so he said, “I will leave as soon as I finish this experiment.”

“You’re still trying to finish the experiment?

Stop pretending to be a good student here.

You don’t even wear a lab coat, so what are you pretending to be?” the burly man said and grabbed Xiang Yu to drag him out.

There was another person beside the burly man, who simply crossed his arms and watched with glee.

It was clear that this wasn’t the first time he had seen such a scene.

“Idiot, you better listen to Brother Zhuang’s advice, or else he will beat you flat,” said the person beside him with a laugh.

“Move aside.” Xiang Yu didn’t want to waste any more words with them, and then he pushed the burly man away and pressed the button.

Seeing Xiang Yu daring to push him, the burly man instantly became furious.

No one at the school had ever dared to provoke him, even the athletes had to show him some respect, but unexpectedly, this idiot in front of him was clueless.

“Kid, you’re asking for it.” After saying that, the burly man swung a punch at Xiang Yu.

He was determined to teach this insolent fool a lesson today, especially in the chemistry department where no one dared to provoke him.

But just as he charged forward, Xiang Yu kicked him aside.

Xiang Yu controlled his strength, not intending to hurt him.

The equipment was already in operation by then, with indicator lights flashing.

Another student, seeing the burly man getting hit, also raised his fists and swung at Xiang Yu.

In his view, no one in the chemistry department dared to provoke the burly man until today.

Yet before he could even touch Xiang Yu, he was slapped away by Xiang Yu, who didn’t even spare him a glance, his eyes fixed on the equipment.

The burly man, noticing that Xiang Yu was not to be underestimated, then picked up a chair and smashed it towards Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu didn’t even look up, just kicked him away with one foot.

The commotion had by then alerted Professor He, who was lecturing.

He quickly walked over through the students towards the disturbance, but by the time he arrived, Xiang Yu was nowhere to be seen.

And the burly man and the other fella were lying on the ground, moaning and unable to get up.

Professor He was curious and glanced unintentionally at the equipment.

What he saw made his eyes bulge.

Many indicator lights were on, including some for precious metals.

Most importantly, an element that was essential for manufacturing atomic bombs was also lit up, and even the proportion was high.

He hurriedly looked towards the sample, only to see that it was gone, and the soil brought by that student earlier had also been taken.

Professor He quickly went out to follow but at that point, Xiang Yu was nowhere to be found.

He stood there, muttering to himself, “Who on earth is he?”

The moment Xiang Yu saw the lights on the equipment, he knew that the soil contained something important.

Although he didn’t know what it was, it was certainly vital.

Otherwise, the Japanese wouldn’t have risked so much to get this land.

Knowing this, Xiang Yu suddenly felt that he should report to Commander Cao, as this was beyond his scope.

After all, these were national resources, and if not careful, they could easily be lost to foreign hands.

But if he informed Commander Cao, the military might get directly involved.

This could make the Japanese operatives flee.

And since Shi Jian was still in their hands, it would put Shi Jian in danger.

After much consideration, Xiang Yu decided to rescue Shi Jian first.

Besides, those Japanese operatives had almost killed him and deserved to pay a price.

With that thought, Xiang Yu hid the remaining soil and then drove towards the guild hall.

Tie Zhuzi and Xiaoxuan came over when they saw Xiang Yu return.

They didn’t ask many questions; since Xiang Yu had gone out early, he must have had his reasons.

“Zhuzi, how many brothers do we have available now?” Xiang Yu suddenly asked.

After thinking for a moment, Tie Zhuzi said, “Wu Jing took some with him.

Excluding Long Zaitian’s men, we have over sixty men available.”

“Inform all the brothers to spare no effort in searching for Shi Jian,” Xiang Yu ordered.

“We’re not going to be reactive anymore, huh?

I thought that was a good approach, too,” Tie Zhuzi suddenly said, having understood Xiang Yu’s previous intent, which was to wait for the other party to make a move.

But now that Xiang Yu had suddenly changed tactics, Tie Zhuzi was confused again.

“We are just sending a message to the other side, that we are willing to agree to any conditions, as long as they release Shi Jian,” Xiang Yu said.

Ever since discovering the precious metals in the soil, Xiang Yu could hardly wait.

He wanted to rescue Shi Jian as soon as possible and then teach the Japanese a lesson.

Although Tie Zhuzi didn’t know what Xiang Yu was thinking, he felt that this was the most straightforward approach and went off to make arrangements.

It was then that Xiang Yu turned to Xiaoxuan and said, “Your hunch was right; there is indeed something in the soil.”

Xiaoxuan’s face showed no expression; he just nodded.

For now, all Xiang Yu and his team needed to do was wait for the other party to show up.

He believed that once the news spread, they would soon get in touch with him.

After Tie Zhuzi had arranged the task, Xiang Yu’s men were searching everywhere for Shi Jian.

On a street, one of them was showing Shi Jian’s photo around, asking, “Friend, have you seen this man?

If you have, we will be very grateful.”

But after seeing the photo, most people just shook their heads.

Then a skinny young man’s eyes suddenly lit up when he saw the photo, “Who is the person in this photo, and why are you looking for him?”

“He’s my brother.

He disappeared suddenly yesterday, and we’re looking for him now.

My older brother said, no matter the cost, he must be found.”

The skinny man nodded with a smile, said nothing, and walked away.

He found a corner, pulled out his phone, and dialed a number, but when he spoke, it was in Japanese.

“Brother Yu, how long do we have to wait?” Tie Zhuzi asked impatiently.

At this point, Tie Zhuzi was getting anxious.

When he saw the Japanese, he would strangle them to death.

They were simply too devious, almost blowing him and Xiang Yu up, and now they dared to play mind games with Xiang Yu, which frustrated him as someone who liked straightforwardness.

“If I’m not wrong, we will receive news by tonight,” Xiang Yu said, lying on the lounge chair.

“Really?

Damn it, I’ll make sure those bastards pay tonight,” Tie Zhuzi said and then stormed off, looking like he was getting ready for something…
