"Old Wang, why are you always thinking about finding a wife?" Ren Xiaosu could not understand. "There's no shortage of women in town, right? Quite a few of them are willing to throw themselves at you as long as you give them food to eat every day."
Ren Xiaosu was not unfamiliar with this. It was the same for men too, much less women. There were several women who tried to throw themselves at Ren Xiaosu, including men. When Yan Liuyuan found out about this, he nearly vomited. That was why Yan Liuyuan was so wary of his Sister Xiaoyu at the beginning.
Sometimes, real-life stories were even more bizarre than some of the stories that Mr. Zhang taught at school.
Wang Fugui flicked his greasy, semi-long hair and said arrogantly, "How could I want someone who isn't decent? With my status, I should at least find a woman from a good family, right? "
"That's right, you're our town's squire," Ren Xiaosu said insincerely.
At this moment, two girls walked past the clinic together on the street. Wang Fugui's eyes lit up. "What do you think of these two?"
Ren Xiaosu sized up the two girls. "One of them is pretty, but her figure isn't that great. The other one isn't pretty, but she has a good figure. So may I ask, what relationship do these two girls have with you?"
Wang Fugui was speechless.
These words really made Wang Fugui choke. Wang Fugui was so angry that he turned around and was about to go back to his grocery store to entertain his customers. But something unexpected happened!
The stronghold's sluice gate was slowly raised. The sound of steel, wood, and ropes rubbing against each other made one's teeth ache. The heavy sluice gate was slowly raised, and it was so heavy that it was almost suffocating.
Chen Haidong walked out of the stronghold with a group of private soldiers. This time, the officer who came out was not Wang Congyang, who had dealt with Ren Xiaosu before. Instead, it was a completely unfamiliar face who had never appeared in town before.
Where did Wang Congyang go? Could he have been punished by Boss Luo?
"What are they doing?" Ren Xiaosu asked curiously.
"I don't know." Wang Fugui looked confused. He walked away from Ren Xiaosu and walked toward Chen Haidong. Due to the distance, Ren Xiaosu could not hear what they were talking about.
The group of Stronghold 113's private troops ran towards town. After a while, they returned with a person in their arms. That person shouted, "Why are you grabbing me? Let go of me!"
Ren Xiaosu looked on silently. The person who was caught was Zhang Baogen, who had come to find him last night.
When Wang Fugui saw the private army arresting someone, he quickly stopped them. "Officers, what's going on? Although this kid is a little naughty, he won't make any big mistakes, right?"
"Get lost," the private army officer said coldly.
In front of the cold, black gun, Wang Fugui could only admit defeat. Otherwise, the opponent would really open fire!
Wang Fugui tried to persuade the town administrator, Chen Haidong, for a long time. In the end, Zhang Baogen was still brought into the stronghold.
The teeth-aching sound rang out again, and the heavy gate separated the two worlds once more.
Ren Xiaosu walked up to Wang Fugui and asked, "What's going on?"
He had to get to the bottom of this, because he knew Zhang Baogen must have been caught and brought into the stronghold because of his so-called "superpower." And both he and Yan Liuyuan possessed such powers.
Wang Fugui sighed and said, "It's over, this kid is finished."
"What do you mean?"
"Chen Haidong said that this kid showed off his superpower in front of his scoundrel friends yesterday. In the end, his scoundrel friends betrayed him right away. Right now, all the strongholds are rejecting supernatural beings. If there were no incidents of supernatural beings attacking the stronghold overseers, it wouldn't be so bad. But now, I'm afraid the overseers are most afraid of these people. If you're afraid of someone, what will you do? "
"I'll kill him," Ren Xiaosu said calmly and firmly.
"You see, the overseers in the stronghold are different from you." Wang Fugui said with a frown, "The first thing they think of when they discover a hidden danger is not to kill it, but to understand it! Chen Haidong said that they've temporarily vacated a courtyard and a building in the stronghold to set up a temporary psychiatric hospital. They've even sent a lot of medical equipment in. "
"Are they going to treat these supernatural beings?" Ren Xiaosu was taken aback.
"Treat my ass." Wang Fugui said, "Chen Haidong said that those medical equipment are not used for treatment. They were previously used in the stronghold for scientific research. The stronghold has already caught three supernatural beings in just one day, so the odds are against them."
Ren Xiaosu felt a chill run down his spine. He could not imagine how he would feel if he were the one trapped in the psychiatric hospital and being studied.
"Old Wang, do you still want to have superpowers?" Ren Xiaosu asked.
Wang Fugui thought for a moment. "I can still have some, but I don't want others to know about it. Xiaosu, you too. If you and Liuyuan really do have any superpowers, don't let anyone else know about it."
Ren Xiaosu had a strange expression on his face. "Mhm, sure."
That night, something major happened in town. Zhang Baogen's father snuck into his scoundrel friend's house in the middle of the night. It was just a shack that was only a few square meters big. Then Zhang Baogen's father went on a killing spree and killed all four members of his friend's family. In the end, he lost too much blood and died.
Meanwhile, Zhang Baogen's mother hanged herself from a dead tree at the intersection of town.
Zhang Baogen was the only child in his family, so his parents doted on him. He did not even have to do any work and was raised by them. Now that he was gone, his entire family could not survive.
In town, some people sympathized with him, while others were secretly making sarcastic remarks. "What's there to be smug about just because you have some superpowers? And Zhang Baogen's father, if you really have the guts, why don't you just storm into the stronghold? "
Ren Xiaosu recalled how Zhang Baogen looked when he blew bubbles. "What a fucking world."
It was as though the high and mighty nobles in the stronghold had the power to decide everyone's life and death. But Ren Xiaosu felt that this kind of lifestyle would change one day.
But he did not know when that day would come.
A group of people in town were watching from afar from the dead tree where Zhang Baogen's mother hanged herself. Ren Xiaosu saw that Mr. Zhang from school had also come over.
But Zhang Jinglin looked at some of the people around him. "Back in school, didn't I teach y 'all to watch a show like this? Isn't the misfortune of others your misfortune as well?"
After that, several of the burly men around Zhang Jinglin lowered their heads. Zhang Jinglin sighed and said, "Go and bury the couple together."
"Sir, we should get back to work at the factory," one of the burly men said hesitantly.
Next to them, Wang Fugui said, "I won't let y 'all work for nothing. I'll pay 800 yuan for it."
"Alright." The burly men agreed, "We'll go right away."
