However, these two words were still too late.
Jiang Ran's right foot had already reached in and stepped on the ground.
His expression changed in an instant, and the veins on his forehead throbbed.
"What's wrong?"
Xiu Yu keenly sensed that something was wrong. She quickly bent down and picked up the other shoe.
With one look, she knew what the reason was.
The front half of the shoe was actually covered with dense needles.
As it was the innermost part, it was blocked. If one didn't look carefully, they wouldn't be able to notice it.
Jiang Ran gritted his teeth and didn't make a sound.
He endured the heart-wrenching pain and took off his shoes.
On the white socks, the blood was very obvious, dripping down drop by drop.
The underling was scared silly.
Fortunately, there was a medicine box at the door of the changing room. Ying Zijin walked over with gauze and scissors.
Jiang Ran was a little reluctant, but he still said, "Thank you."
He took the scissors, bit the other end of the gauze with his teeth, and began to bandage himself.
Xiu Yu's eyes were very cold. "Who did this?"
Although she and Jiang Ran were childhood friends who didn't get along, they were still brothers.
"No … It wasn't me." The underling was a little flustered. "I swear, I would never hurt brother Ran."
Jiang Ran was a school bully, but he wouldn't do anything outrageous. He was also very good to the people around him.
Now, he had turned over a new leaf and even started to listen to classes.
"I know it wasn't you." Xiu Yu frowned. "You wouldn't do such a thing. Where did you get the shoe?"
"The school's courier." The underling was so anxious that he wanted to cry. "Brother Ran, what should we do? How can you participate in the competition with your foot?"
"I'm fine." Jiang Ran finally managed to catch his breath. His forehead was covered in sweat as he sneered, "Even if I only have one foot, I can still cripple them."
Ying Zijin finished calling 120 and glanced at him. "Go to the hospital."
**
The First Hospital.
The female doctor held the syringe and frowned. "Why are you hiding? Come here."
"No!" Jiang Ran was unwilling to stretch out his arm. "I already said, I'm fine. I won't call."
"There are so many wounds, and they're so deep. If you don't get a tetanus shot, you'll die tonight." The female doctor said unhappily, "Aren't boys your age all very cool? Why are you afraid of injections?"
Just like her son.
"Jiang Ran, don't throw a tantrum at this time." Xiu Yu shrugged, "Of course, if you want to die, just pretend I didn't say anything."
"How can it be so easy to die?" Jiang Ran's face darkened. "I told you, I won't —"
Ying Zijin glanced over.
Jiang Ran paused for a moment and changed his words under pressure. "I'll play."
"…"
Well, at this critical moment, his father was still the most useful.
The lackey covered his mouth. This wasn't the right time to laugh.
Jiang Ran rolled up his sleeves and revealed his deltoid muscles.
He pursed his lips and couldn't help but say, "Be gentle."
"Gentler?" The female doctor took a cotton swab dipped in iodophor to disinfect him. "Gentler? You don't remember."
Although she said that, her movements were still light.
But it was still painful enough.
After one injection, Jiang Ran's entire body collapsed.
"Don't let the wound touch water. Come and change the dressing when the time comes." The female doctor threw the syringe into the trash can and reminded him worriedly, "Don't take a shower after the injection."
She turned her head and said to Xiu Yu, "Don't let him do any strenuous exercise. Don't stand if you can sit."
"Don't worry." Xiu Yu said, "I've already ordered a wheelchair for him. It'll be delivered to your door in a while."
Jiang Ran: "…"
F * ck.
He was the school bully, and he had to sit in a wheelchair?
It was simply embarrassing.
"That's better." The female doctor nodded and went out.
Jiang Ran's face was dark. He was so angry that he didn't want to speak.
Ying Zijin handed the phone to Xiu Yu. "An hour ago, the delivery arrived at the school. Pay attention to this person."
Xiu Yu came over to take a look and realized that it was a surveillance video.
The video showed that the person who sent the shoes was not a courier.
Instead, it was a man wearing a black cap and black clothes. He even had gloves on his hands.
She couldn't even tell if it was a man or a woman.
"It's premeditated." Xiu Yu's voice deepened. "Papa YIng, give me this video. I'll investigate it."

At night.
The time in Continent O was six to seven hours away from Hua City.
At this time, it was afternoon in Continent O.
At seven o 'clock in Hua City, Ying Zijin received Fu Yunshen's enlightenment.
His voice sounded no different from usual. He was still smiling and lazily. "Little kid, did you eat well today?"
Ying Zijin looked at the bag of potato chips beside her hand and paused. "Yes."
Because she had gone to the hospital, she had really forgotten to eat at noon.
After all, it was common for her to not eat for a few days in the past.
But now that her body was in such a state, she had to eat.
"Yaoyao can't bear to lie to Brother, right?" Fu Yunshen's voice was long. "So I believe her."
Ying Zijin pushed the bag of potato chips away. "You've arrived in Continent O."
"A few hours ago." Fu Yunshen did not hide it and smiled. "Things went well. Don't worry."
The person who robbed him of the medicinal herbs he had prepared for Master Fu was not a single person, but a mercenary team. They were quite famous.
In this team, only the captain was a hunter on the list.
They had the guts to rob the medicinal herbs because they wanted to get lucky.
They thought that if they killed him, they would be able to receive a bounty of one billion USD.
But in the end, the entire team was lost.
Fu Yunshen stood by the sea and looked at the time. "It's so late. I won't disturb your studies. I'll be back the day after tomorrow. I'll bring you some local snacks."
After a pause, he added lazily, "Little kid, remember to sleep early. You won't go bald."
"…"

The next day.
Jiang Ran was still lying in the hospital. Looking at his feet that were wrapped like dumplings, he was annoyed and irritable.
The taekwondo competition that he accepted was only what he told the others.
Actually, it was not taekwondo, but black market boxing. It was in the underground market under the TV tower.
Because the method of cultivating ancient martial arts was wrong, the inner strength in his body had been in chaos.
Other than having to take medicine, he had to fight a few rounds from time to time to calm the chaotic inner strength.
Those who knew taekwondo were too weak for him. Only black market boxing was qualified.
However, since it had the words "black market", it meant that it was not to be trifled with. If he did not go, there would be trouble, especially if it affected the people around him.
The Imperial Capital was still in chaos, so he would not rely on the power of the Imperial Capital's family.
Jiang Ran endured it and got up. He took the walking stick beside him and hopped out of the ward on one foot.
The underling was sent out to buy food. He did not expect Jiang Ran to run away.
Thirty minutes later, Jiang Ran took a taxi to the underground market.
The black market boxing was in the north of the underground market. Because he could only walk with one foot, it took him a full 20 minutes to reach the entrance of the black market boxing.
There were already people waiting for him.
When they saw him enter, they surrounded him. They were tall and strong.
"You're late." One of the young men glanced at him and sneered. "We thought you weren't coming. After all, if you weren't coming, we would have a reason to do something."
Jiang Ran was not frightened. He sneered. "I'm just here to say that I'm not fighting today."
As soon as he said this, the expressions of the young men changed.
The young man who spoke earlier looked at him strangely. "What did you say?"
"I can't fight." Jiang Ran suppressed his impatience. "Can't you see that I'm injured? I'll refund you the money for the competition. Ten times, a hundred times. You see, it's fine. "
"What does your injury have to do with us?" The young man crossed his arms and looked down at him. "Do you think we like money that much?"
Jiang Ran's fingers that were holding the walking stick tightened. His eyes were extremely cold. "What do you mean?"
"We agreed a long time ago." The young man smiled. "If you don't fight, you'll forfeit. If you forfeit, you'll lose. If you lose, you'll have to cut off your hand."
He gave the people beside him a look. "Hold him down."
"Don't touch me." Jiang Ran gritted his teeth and said coldly, "I'll fight you."
At most, he could use his inner strength.
Using it once wouldn't cause too much damage to his body.
"Tactful." The young man smiled again. "Then throw away your walking stick. Don't just stand there. Go on stage."
Jiang Ran clenched his fingers and put the walking stick aside.
However, because of one foot, his body was unstable and kept swaying.
"Chi." Someone laughed. "Child, don't force yourself. You might as well cut off one of your hands. If you really go on stage to fight, you won't only lose one hand." “
Damn it.
"Shut your dog mouth." Jiang Ran smiled coldly and was about to go on stage.
However, footsteps sounded behind him.
Jiang Ran turned around and was stunned when he saw who it was.
The girl walked in slowly with a cup of milk tea in her hand.
She said, "Go down."
----- Digression —
Jiang Ran: Father.
Jiang Ran: I'll call you first.
