Chapter Eighty-Three: No Mercy in Action!
Chen Feiyang and the woman immediately looked over upon hearing the voice. Seeing the person who appeared behind Zhang Bin, they were secretly surprised. Chen Feiyang felt ashamed once more; yet another enemy appeared quietly and he hadn't noticed. What a disgrace for a master!
Because of Li Yan's appearance, Chen Feiyang couldn't make a move, and Zhang Bin, who was pointing a gun at the woman, didn't dare to easily turn the gun around. Although it was a little terrifying for someone to suddenly appear behind him, that woman was as formidable as if she was hanging by a wire.
But seeing the two of them looking behind him without speaking made Zhang Bin feel a cold sweat down his back, and he couldn't help but glance back. One look, and he didn't see a head... just a motorcycle helmet.
"Hey? Who are you?"
Seeing the helmet, Zhang Bin suspected it was someone from the group responsible for providing cover at the school today. They were on his side, but not his people specifically; everyone had their roles and he wasn't very clear about it.
Li Yan, who had put on a helmet before entering, spoke enigmatically: "A. Ultraman; B. Future Cop; C. Iron Man; D. Here to help you. What do you think I am?"
While Yu Xiaodi and Jiang Wen were playing tennis, he had been observing the whole scene under the cover of sunglasses. He spotted some suspicious individuals and, after brief tracking and deduction, roughly identified their roles. Then, he was boasting with Huang Xuhui and the rest so as not to draw attention.
When the snatching scene occurred, he actually followed Yu Xiaodi immediately after she left, but unlike Bai Feijin and the others, he didn't chase directly. Instead, he went to where he parked his car, started it, and drove off.
Sure enough, by taking that extra step ahead, he grasped the situation: he saw everything onsite, including Yu Xiaodi being restrained and taken away, those people causing chaos on motorcycles, and the woman swiftly climbing onto a truck. Afterwards, he followed from a distance because Zhang Xiaoyang, who was nervous, didn't notice him following. After they arrived at the repair shop, Li Yan drove right over, requested a carwash service, then went inside to wait. Seizing a moment of inattention, he slipped inside, picking up a helmet along the way.
"Haha... I guess you're on my side, right? What's your name?" Zhang Bin laughed to steady himself and asked.
"Actually, I'm Iron Man... Look out!"
Though still suspicious, Zhang Bin was more concerned about the woman, whom he had seen displaying superb skills. Upon hearing Li Yan's warning, he immediately thought the woman was attacking, and quickly turned his head to look ahead.
At this moment, all he felt was a sharp pain at the back of his head, and then he lost consciousness.
After slamming into Zhang Bin's back of the head with the helmet, knocking him out, Li Yan swiftly took his gun.
"I did tell him to be careful, yet he still didn't guard against me. Alas, being too good-natured can be a downfall."
Was it a deceit or a warning? Chen Feiyang was speechless—what a case of gaining the upper hand and still playing innocent!
Li Yan shook his head and said, "Choosing someone who trusts me so much to handle matters, I really have to thank your boss!"
"What do you want?" Chen Feiyang asked coldly with a sullen face, then added, "We're all masters, let's duel!"
"Alright..." Li Yan flicked off the safety and casually pointed the gun at him.
"..." Chen Feiyang was furious. Damn, is this still a duel? This is bullying!
"Hey! Silly girl, what are you standing there for?" Li Yan said impatiently, "Don't you understand by now that I'm here to help you? I've already taken care of one, do you want me to waste another bullet on him?"
Silly girl?!
The woman released a hint of killing intent, yet maintained professional ethics, quickly knocking Chen Feiyang unconscious.
Poor Chen Feiyang, who always considered himself a master, didn't dare to resist and with a tragic heart was knocked out by a girl just like that.
...
After hearing Li Yan, Yu Xiaodi obediently stayed hidden to not cause trouble, but had been eavesdropping with her ears up. After hearing their exchanges, it seemed he trusted the woman, and so she relaxed. Now seeing everything resolved, she jumped down with excitement, letting out a soft cheer and threw herself forward, just like last time, not only into his arms but also wrapping her legs around his waist, hanging onto him.
"I knew you'd come to save me!" This time Yu Xiaodi didn't cry, though tears of joy and relief were still in the corners of her eyes.
Li Yan was a bit helpless, not evading when she lunged at him...
"Silly girl, catch this!"
"Is your name Silly Girl? Thank you. I misunderstood you just now, I thought you were an assassin sent to kill me..." Since she was here to save her, Yu Xiaodi hurriedly thanked her, using it as an excuse to hide her shyness.
Silly girl?!
The girl's face was mostly obscured by dark, messy hair, hiding her expression, but one could faintly feel the anger in her gaze piercing through her hair.
This left Yu Xiaodi puzzled—could it be she wasn't called Silly Girl... Oh, of course, who would like being called Silly Girl! "Sorry, got it, that's just a nickname he uses for you..."
The girl nearly spat blood, having knocked out three without getting hurt, but "Silly Girl" left her internally scorned... Being inexplicably called Silly Girl was one thing, but this girl thought it was a nickname! Who's the real fool here!
"Li Jie! Let's go!"
"Understand? Hmm, long live understanding! Let's get out of here first..."
Li Yan chuckled, "You've turned into a silly girl too? Her name is Li Jie... You two get into the car and drive off! Don't tell me you can't drive a truck!"
Seeing him switch from jest to seriousness, both of them could only hold back, quickly getting into the vehicle.
This Li Jie, who Yu Xiaodi thought was called by Li Yan, was actually someone Zhou Yunfei hired to secretly protect Yu Xiaodi. Li Yan knew from Yu Hong that she had been spotted at the movie theater, even watching the same movie for close-up protection, having already considered all suspicious candidates. At the tennis court today, he had already identified her low-key, unassuming, ugly guise, so he had peace of mind to go drive the car.
Seeing Yu Xiaodi driving the truck, Li Yan felt a bit sweating, this fellow drives wildly, even smashing cars on purpose when driving sports cars. If she drives the truck carelessly too, that'd be a lot more damaging!
Thanks to Zhang Bin's orders, no one had come to the back yet. Li Yan leisurely put back the helmet, holding a cigarette as he nonchalantly strolled around the repair shop, then returned to the front.
...
Soon, the truck charged out from the backyard!
Just as Li Yan expected, Yu Xiaodi was wildly knocking over various items with great momentum, making her way outside. Although accustomed to sports cars, she handled the truck adeptly. The noise immediately drew a crowd's attention, while Li Yan noticed Li Jie lowered herself down, perhaps not wanting to be exposed, even covering herself with black tape—who knew if she carried a roll of black garbage bags.
Spying Li Yan amidst the crowd, Yu Xiaodi was even more excitedly shouting, ramming left and right, forcing the repairmen trying to approach back. "Stop them!" someone realized something was wrong, calling people to grab tools and block the truck from leaving the shop.
Li Yan frowned secretly, Li Jie's actions had already been noticed by the unconscious ones inside, and they could analyze and guess about him too. If he really wanted to remain hidden, mere cover was superficial! To truly make them stop, a more severe warning was necessary!
Amidst the chaos, he quickly returned to the back and moved the four people.
"Fire!"
As soon as this was shouted, everyone was petrified, and Yu Xiaodi too was startled, not daring to play anymore, immediately crashing through the makeshift barrier in front, speeding away!
Considering the potential consequences, no one dared to risk checking on Zhang Bin and the others in the back; everyone was frantically fleeing! Li Yan too mingled with the crowd and drove away.
Before the fire trucks arrived, several vehicles swiftly arrived, a few people stepping out to ask what happened. Amid the chaotic explanations, they gathered some information, not staying but driving off immediately.
Li Yan, observing from the crowd, saw those few, having waited long enough. He had no interest in waiting for the fire trucks any longer. His car was being washed outside, close to the fire yet untouched, so now he "bravely" went over, retrieved his car, and "nervously" drove away in public.
