Two hours ago, Huai Shi heard the sound of glass shattering outside the car window.
"Is it raining?" He looked up and asked.
"Yes, but it's not heavy," Shangye, who was driving, replied. "We'll be there in a while. Boss, you can sleep a little longer."
"I've slept enough. Do you have a cigarette?"
"Yes, please have one."
Shangye hurriedly stopped the car by the side of the road, ignoring the cars behind him honking furiously on the narrow one-way street. He turned around and took out his cigarette, offering it with both hands.
Then, he respectfully lit it for Huai Shi.
"I say, Shangye …" Huai Shi looked at him and couldn't help but ask, "Have you never doubted me?"
"Hmm?" Shangye, who was in the driver's seat, turned around again. "Boss, what did you say?"
"I mean, you've worked hard for so many years, but you've been riding on your head by a brat like me. You even have to treat someone like this as your 'family'. It must be uncomfortable, right?"
Huai Shi asked calmly, "Everyone else is obviously unhappy, but why haven't you objected at all? You're even so respectful. To be honest, I've already prepared to prove myself, but you didn't doubt me at all. "
"Ah, if you want to say …" Shangye, who was driving, rubbed his bald head and smiled embarrassedly. The scar on his face also curved into an arc. "Maybe it's because I'm not good at thinking."
"Hmm?"
"Since I was young, my reaction has always been half a beat slower than others. I couldn't understand what the teachers taught me. My mother always thought that there was something wrong with me. Maybe there really is something wrong with me, but there's no cure for stupidity. Growing up, the only good thing about me is that I'm a little stronger, slow to react, and not too afraid of pain.
So my mother always told me that it's okay to be a little stupid, as long as I listen to what others say. As long as I listen to the right people, I can live better than those who use their brains. "
Shangye replied as he drove, "If it weren't for Brother Fujimoto, I might have been sold to an illegal factory to work and beaten to death, right?
Brother Fujimoto has never harmed me, and he's very righteous, promoting me to this extent. I think that the person Brother Fujimoto chose wouldn't harm me … Ahahaha, I accidentally said something stupid. Brother Huai Shi, please don't take offense. "
As he spoke, he laughed to himself.
Its sharp teeth were like those of a shark.
"How naive." Huai Shi sighed. "Haven't you thought about changing your profession?"
"Eh? That won't do, Brother Huai Zhi. We don't even have a proper driver's license and household registration. Even if he worked at a convenience store, his hourly wage would be reduced to less than half of other people's once they saw that he was a mixed-race … He wouldn't be able to survive. Someone as good-looking as you, Boss Huai Zhi, might be able to make a lot of money, but we can't. "
Ueno scratched his head and said the truth without knowing how to flatter. "Only Extreme Dao wouldn't despise us. You see, it's fine as long as we can fight … To tell you the truth, I'm super resistant to beatings. In the past, several people tried to stab me, but I beat them all up."
Huai Shi shook his head helplessly. He sighed and pinched the space between his eyebrows. "Shangye, do you know what Extreme Dao is in my opinion?"
"Huh?" Shangye was confused and wanted to turn around, but there was a crossroad in front of him, so he could only listen carefully.
Then, he heard the calm voice of the paper effigy in his arms.
"All Extreme Dao, the so-called chivalrous people, are actually like rats."
Huai Shi looked at the world outside the window that was submerged in the rain and sighed softly. "It doesn't matter if you're forced by others, or if you're willing to fall into depravity — no matter what reason you have for choosing this way of life, it can only mean one thing — you can't survive in the outside world.
But the world outside the sun isn't beautiful either. It's like the ocean, turbulent and bottomless. We can only lie on the small plank under our paws, unable to see the light.
You can be chivalrous and indulge, or you can bully and fish as you please. But if you want to live a better life, you have to band together to survive. You have to contribute your small plank to form a big boat to keep the group warm.
If there's a hole in the boat, it has to be repaired. If someone wants to be a black sheep, they have to stand up and get rid of him. If the boat sinks, all the rats are doomed. If other rats' boats block your way, you have to crush them.
This has nothing to do with morality and justice. You don't have to think about it, but you have to know what you're doing. You should also know where you are. "
When the car stopped in front of the huge manor of the Tiger King Team, Huai Shi stood outside the car, lowered his head, and put out the cigarette in his hand.
When he turned around and saw Shangye, who was still in a daze, he suddenly couldn't help but laugh.
"Now, we're going to crush the other boat, Shangye."
He reached out and asked softly, "Do you want to come along?"
Shangye was stunned.
Was that moment just an illusion or an illusion?
It was indescribable.
A cold, damp breeze blew in from outside the window. It was like a raging storm, pouring into the car amidst the roar of the surging waves. The loud noise of the raging waves almost crushed him.
But amidst the roar, a solemn and majestic silhouette emerged from the storm, tearing the hurricane apart and crashing through the waves.
It was an unbelievably huge steel battleship patrolling between the sky and the sea. It was insufferably arrogant, standing proudly at the top of this tyrannical world.
It was summoning him.
Should he come?
Was there a need to hesitate?
Shangye gave up thinking. He just instinctively raised his hand and held that palm tightly. He pleaded from the bottom of his heart, "Please take me with you. Please let me come with you!"
"Sure."
Amidst the drifting rain, the man smiled. "Then follow me."
Just like that, with Shangye in tow, the two of them walked towards the incoming behemoth.
In the splashing rain, unexpectedly, Shangye didn't feel any uneasiness or fear. He felt extremely at ease, as if nothing was worth fearing anymore.
Ignoring the rain falling into his eyes, he widened his eyes and stared at the back of that person.
He witnessed him moving forward.
He watched as he raised his fist and destroyed the insignificant iron gate. Then, he stepped into the manor.
Then, with a punch, he sent the person who rushed forward flying like a doll. With another punch, he caused another person to repeat the same mistake.
More and more people rushed forward, and then more and more people were sent flying.
Amidst the crisp sounds of bones breaking, the rain also trembled in horror.
Everything that was insignificant was being brutally ravaged and crushed.
If it was an enemy in front of him, he would crush them. If it was a wall in front of him, he would tear the wall apart. He walked straight forward, step by step.
Amidst the wails, he walked deeper into the encirclement. Even bullets and gunpowder couldn't stop him.
Some people were screaming 'monster', some wanted to kneel down and beg for mercy, some people fled in all directions, and some rushed towards him.
When Shangye came back to his senses, he had already fallen in the messy hall.
He tried his best to breathe. His body was covered with gunshot wounds, knife wounds, and bruises from the scuffle.
But his body seemed to have a mind of its own. He contracted his arms tightly until the struggling opponent in his arms lost his strength and stopped moving.
He won!
In his exhaustion, he felt his vision darken.
He lost too much blood and couldn't breathe.
But when he looked up, he could still see the man standing beside him looking down at him, waiting quietly.
"Can you still stand up, Shangye?"
He said, "Just a little more. Don't give up."
"You … You were waiting for me?"
Shangye raised his head in disbelief and looked at the cold face that was dyed red with blood.
So, that person laughed and nodded matter-of-factly. "Yes, because we agreed to do it together."
How should he describe the ecstasy and honor at that moment? The happiness that almost made him cry, and the power that came with those words.
Unprecedented power!
"Sorry to have kept you waiting!"
Shangye raised his head and propped his body up. He forgot about his illness and weakness and followed that person again.
Just like that, he broke through the last door and finally saw those pale faces. They no longer looked as arrogant as before. They seemed to be trembling in fear.
"You, you can't do this … The five bosses have already stopped!" Arisaka Tetsuya covered the wound on his left hand and screamed, "Beiyuan, Mr. Beiyuan won't let you go!"
After a moment of silence, Shangye and the man beside him looked at each other and smiled mockingly at the same time.
Then, they raised the gun in their hands, aimed at the front, and pulled the trigger.
When the roaring stopped, Shangye slowly walked forward and looked down at those faces that were still in disbelief even when they were about to die. He grinned and spat.
"Beiyuan? He's nothing! "
.
.
"We actually respect you a lot too, Mr. Beiyuan."
At this moment, in the mourning hall, the paper figurine in his arms shrugged helplessly. "But we really didn't know. To be honest, I didn't expect them to be so weak …"
Beiyuan's face was pale. He was about to scold him when he saw Huai Shi raise his hand and push it forward casually.
Boom!
Along with a low muffled sound, a hurricane appeared out of nowhere. Suffocating airwaves swept across and scraped past his face like a knife.
His hat was blown away, and his mottled white hair danced in the wind. He lay on his scalp and didn't dare to move anymore.
"There's not even a guy who can catch my push. The Tiger King Team is really not that good."
Huai Shi smiled and explained to the emissary of the five big bosses. "Besides, this isn't our fault, right?"
Beiyuan's face twitched. "W-what do you mean …"
"What I mean is what I mean."
Huai Shi sighed. "We're all small characters who can only continue to exist because of the alliance. If this is what the five big bosses want, how can we dare to disobey?
"But why didn't you say something so important earlier? “
He asked doubtfully, "Shouldn't the five big bosses' judgment be delivered soon? It's already past five in the afternoon. Even if they came after work, they didn't have to come so early, right?
"Mr. Beiyuan, why didn't you come an hour earlier or give them a call?"
As he spoke, the blood-stained man took a step forward and scrutinized that angry face. He asked word by word, "Or is it because of you that you were delayed on the road for too long?"
"How dare you!" Beiyuan roared and retorted hoarsely. "Are you going to say that this is my fault?!"
"What else?"
Huai Shi retorted indifferently. He raised his finger and poked the old man's chest. He told him word by word, "The destruction of the Tiger King Team, the death of more than 70 people, including Tetsuya Sakaka and his son, and all the losses caused …
"All of these, of course, are your fault!"
