Chapter 28

The scarred man, who was the first to move, let out a roar and lunged at Miss Luo Quan for a bear hug. This was the best way to deal with someone whose build was weaker than his own; as long as he caught Miss Luo Quan and pinned her to the ground, no amount of martial arts would be of any use.

However, all of the above were the scarred man's wishful thinking. It might work on an ordinary girl, but Miss Luo Quan was not a weakling who would stand there like a fool when someone lunged at her.

"Ha!" Miss Luo Quan opened her mouth and shouted, her long right leg suddenly lifting up and kicking squarely into the scarred man's chest. The scarred man, suffering a heavy blow, staggered back a few steps, clutching his chest and coughing.

Miss Luo Quan also retreated two steps due to the reaction force, mainly because her strength was relatively small, and since it was her first time fighting, her stance wasn't stable.

Having succeeded with one strike, Miss Luo Quan stabilized her posture and didn't give the scarred man any chance to catch his breath. She bounced up like a nimble rabbit and simultaneously threw a right punch.

The scarred man endured the pain and threw a punch to counter, but Miss Luo Quan dodged it with an incredibly agile sidestep. The fist, carrying a gust of wind, grazed her nose, while Miss Luo Quan's straight punch landed squarely on the scarred man's soft ribs.

Shotokan Karate has always been known for its rigidity and power, with wide-open moves, and is best at attacking enemies with straight punches and high kicks. Miss Luo Quan's attack was also focused on the scarred man's weaknesses, and this punch hammered fiercely into his ribs.

Although she didn't hear the sound of bones breaking, this area is one of the most vulnerable parts of the human body; the muscle groups are not dense enough, and the shape of the bones is relatively unique, so it is easy to lose combat effectiveness instantly when attacked.

The scarred man clearly hadn't practiced the skill of taking a beating to perfection. After being punched in the ribs by Miss Luo Quan, he instantly sucked in half a breath of cold air, but the other half of the cold air could not be sucked in no matter what. The heavy blow to his ribs caused his diaphragm to contract violently, and his lungs felt as if they were being tightly clamped by iron pliers, losing their ability to breathe.

Miss Luo Quan, having succeeded with this strike again, continued to throw a straight punch, aiming at the scarred man's jaw.

Although she had never been a ruthless person, the Karate martial arts bestowed upon her by the system caused her to unconsciously unleash the most ferocious attack method during the fight.

With a crisp "bang," Miss Luo Quan's fist hit the scarred man's jaw. This is the only movable bone in the human head; once it suffers a heavy blow, it can lead to a concussion or coma at best, and even carries the risk of death in serious cases.

Miss Luo Quan's attack was clean and neat, and the disadvantage of insufficient strength was compensated for by her superb Karate skills. The scarred man, hit in the jaw, had his upper body suddenly tilt backward, and then he lay straight down on the ground.

At the same time, the man in the suit who was fighting Yagyu Junko had also collapsed to the ground, like a dead dog.

Yagyu Junko used the tip of the umbrella to accurately poke the vagus nerve in the center of the man in the suit's neck. The latter fainted without even a groan, and the speed of his defeat was even faster than the scarred man Miss Luo Quan dealt with.

Seeing Wen Xia, in the middle, was stunned. She had originally thought the boss they were going to deal with this time was Hoshino Sakura, and never expected to start fighting these two burly men as soon as they entered the house.

Yagyu Junko, who had looked a bit cute and naive before, transformed into a kendo girl, poking the man in the suit to the ground with her umbrella as if it were a sword.

Miss Luo Quan's side was even more fierce. Don't look at the fact that Miss Luo Quan was the tallest among the three of them; her strength was even less than hers, and when they were playing around before, she had been pinned under her without any power to resist.

As a result, she had now completely turned into a violent girl, and a set of combo punches had beaten that 1.8-meter-tall man until he had no power to parry. He didn't even last half a minute before fainting!

"You... you guys are too amazing!" The slow-reacting Seeing Wen Xia finally let out a scream. She had never longed to learn a martial art as much as she did now, whether it was Karate or Kendo!

"Oh my god, I twisted my hand." Miss Luo Quan clutched her wrist, grimacing. This was her first time fighting someone, and she hadn't mastered the force well when she hit the scarred man's jawbone just now, resulting in a slight sprain.

"Quan-chan, endure it and don't touch that spot. Find ice for a cold compress first!" Yagyu Junko came from a kendo family and was very experienced in dealing with such situations. Seeing Wen Xia heard this and hurriedly ran into the house.

Although the house was large, the kitchen was easy to find. Seeing Wen Xia quickly grabbed a drawer from the freezer of the refrigerator, which contained a lot of scattered ice cubes in addition to some meat.

Yagyu Junko tore a large piece of cloth from her own pale yellow floral dress, placed the ice cubes on the cloth, and then carefully wrapped it around Miss Luo Quan's wrist, tying a beautiful bow.

"This is the only way to handle it for now. If it hurts really badly when we go back later, you'll have to go to the hospital to have it checked."

"Find a rope and tie these two guys up first." Miss Luo Quan gritted her teeth and said, looking at the two people lying on the ground.

"Look, what is this?" Seeing Wen Xia dragged a brown burlap sack from behind the sofa, a burlap sack that was wiggling.

Miss Luo Quan rolled her eyes: "What else could it be? It must be Hoshino Sakura. Untie it quickly."

Seeing Wen Xia hurriedly untied the rope tying the mouth of the burlap sack and handed it to Yagyu Junko, who then tied the rope to the hands of the two burly men and tied a dead knot.

Pulling the burlap sack down, a disheveled woman appeared before the three women. At this time, Hoshino Sakura's face was pale, and her eyes were slightly terrified, but she had been able to hear the commotion just now clearly, and now she should be safe.

After untying the ropes on her hands and feet, Hoshino Sakura hurriedly pulled out the white cloth stuffed in her mouth and looked at the three women with lingering fear: "You... how did you get here?"

Miss Luo Quan laughed: "The effect of my phone communication with you just now was very bad, so I decided to visit in person. I didn't expect to encounter two robbers. Isn't that a coincidence?"

"They aren't robbers." Hoshino Sakura swallowed hard and said.

Miss Luo Quan frowned: "What do you mean?"

Hoshino Sakura's emotions gradually calmed down: "Half a month ago, a wakagashira (second-in-command) of the Sumiyoshi-kai sent someone to invite me, wanting to have a meal with me alone, but I refused. The next day, I received an anonymous text message saying they would make me pay."

"I originally thought these people wouldn't be that bold and were just verbally threatening to teach me a lesson, so I didn't take it too much to heart. I didn't expect such a thing to happen today."

When it came to the Sumiyoshi-kai, Miss Luo Quan understood a bit about what was going on. As one of Japan's three major underworld organizations, the Sumiyoshi-kai controls the most prosperous areas like Shibuya, Ginza, Shinjuku, and Roppongi. It can be said that they are filthy rich. With plenty of food and clothing, some big shots in the Sumiyoshi-kai like to spend money to support female celebrities.

But it is very rare to use force directly against a female artist like today. Regardless, let's report it to the police first and deal with it after the police arrive.

"By the way, how did you find this place?" After Miss Luo Quan finished reporting to the police, Hoshino Sakura asked the three of them curiously.

Miss Luo Quan smiled: "The phone chat with you just now was very unpleasant, so I came to visit in person."

When this topic came up, Hoshino Sakura's expression suddenly became unnatural.

On one hand, Miss Luo Quan had just saved her and could be called a great benefactor; on the other hand, the two had had bad blood before, and now it was truly impossible for her to bury the hatchet with Miss Luo Quan.

Hoshino Sakura lifted her chin slightly, her eyes slightly arrogant: "The internet trolls weren't hired by me, and the paparazzi who took the photos weren't hired by me either. Whoever I want to deal with, I do it openly and honestly; I would never do such sneaky things!"

"So it really wasn't you?" Miss Luo Quan fell into deep thought. Then who on earth wanted to deal with her like this? Besides Hoshino Sakura, she hadn't offended anyone else.

Miss Luo Quan thought for a while, but couldn't figure it out, so she could only put it aside for now and solve the matter at hand first.

"Then let's ignore those people blackening my name online for now. What did you mean when we were at the beach? I remember you didn't say a word at the time, and as soon as you walked over, you made things so difficult for me. It's a good thing I even wanted to thank you." Miss Luo Quan stared at Hoshino Sakura, wanting her to answer this doubt that had troubled her for a long time.

Hearing Miss Luo Quan's questioning, Hoshino Sakura was silent for a moment and said: "That matter was indeed my fault. At the time, I had some misunderstandings about you, and later, after knowing the truth, I was too embarrassed to find you and apologize."

"What misunderstanding?"

Hoshino Sakura sighed: "I thought you were an American. I grew up in the United States. As an Asian, I was often discriminated against on campus, so I really hate Americans."

Hearing this, Miss Luo Quan touched her face blankly and realized with a sudden start: "So it was my appearance that caused the trouble?"
