Chapter 921

~5 min read 921 words

A passerby willing to be a hero saving a beauty?

This luck...

"Hey, kid, don't meddle in other people's business."

A tall hooligan walked up, pointing his finger at the man.

The man immediately acted, grabbing the hooligan's hand and twisting it.

Intense pain was transmitted instantly.

"Ahhhhh!"

A heart-wrenching sound echoed.

The man shouted, struggling to escape, but failed.

"You bastard, let him go."

Another hooligan roared and swung his fist.

'Whoosh...'

"Ahhh!"

The power from his abdomen made the hooligan's face change drastically, and he crouched on the ground clutching his stomach.

'Thud...'

Another kick,

he fell to the ground after being hit, his 'ahhh' screams continuing to shout.

Seeing this,

the other few hooligans became nervous.

Having solved three of their partners so cleanly, this man's strength could not be underestimated.

"Attack together,"

the leader of the hooligans shouted, and the other two hooligans immediately mustered their courage, baring fangs and brandishing claws as they rushed over with fists.

"Thud, thud, thud..."

"Crack..."

Dull impact sounds, bone-breaking sounds.

Two hooligans fell to the ground, howling endlessly.

At this time, the man didn't pay attention to the few hooligans lying on the ground howling; one hooligan tried to hug the man, and the man raised his leg and stepped down fiercely.

'Crack...' the crisp sound of bones splitting.

The hooligan howled.

Only one hooligan remained standing; facing the cold man's approach, his face was pale, and his body was trembling.

"You..."

"Don't come over,"

"if you come over again, I'll, I'll... be rude to her!"

Saying this,

he took out a folding dagger, 'whoosh', the sharp blade reflecting a faint metallic luster in the dim light.

Tachibana Rui's heart trembled, and she was stunned in place, motionless.

The shadow of a death threat was permeating.

The hooligan just raised a smile, because he noticed the man had stopped and was standing in place.

This was clearly receiving a threat and not daring to act recklessly.

But the next second, he only felt his brain in chaos, and the hand holding the dagger turned slowly, stabbing fiercely into his own thigh.

"Ahhhhh!"

Intense pain made him scream instantly.

Red blood sprayed out.

The bloody scent permeated the air.

Tachibana Rui was shocked.

The other hooligans who were howling in low voices were all shocked.

They didn't expect their big brother to stab himself; they couldn't imagine such a thing.

It was unimaginable.

The man walked over.

Tachibana Rui saw the newcomer's face clearly.

Just a moment ago in the dim light, she had felt the newcomer was Lin Ye, and now, she finally confirmed it.

"Waaaa!"

With a sob, the blue-haired girl rushed into Lin Ye's arms, her hands spreading out to hug Lin Ye tightly.

The solid touch, the warm heat, made her panicked heart and tense, fearful emotions greatly relieved, and her whole person relaxed a lot.

"Woooo..."

The girl, who was usually stiff and had a somewhat cold expression, was sobbing in a low voice at this moment.

All of Lin Ye's words were stuck in his throat; his hand, placed in the air, stroked the girl's back after a while, relieving the huge emotional pressure in the girl's heart.

At this time,

the other hooligans got up cautiously, fearing to attract Lin Ye's attention.

Just that scene just now had made them recognize the huge gap between both parties.

If they were still thinking of a sneak attack now, the result would only be more miserable.

"Kill him, kill him!"

The hooligan leader, whose thigh was injured and howling endlessly, shouted, covering his thigh with both hands, wanting to stop the bleeding.

Lin Ye looked over.

The cold gaze immediately made his heart chill, and he shut his mouth.

He still wanted to stab his left leg as well.

The intense pain of the sharp blade stabbing into his thigh was something he now deeply understood.

He had always been the one bullying others like this; now he had experienced it himself.

He finally tasted pain.

"Get lost..."

With one sentence from Lin Ye, the hooligans who were cautiously getting up immediately stood up and ran away.

"Hey, hey, take me with you!"

The hooligan leader shouted for the little brothers who were running away to come back and take him with them.

Several people looked at Lin Ye fawningly.

Seeing Lin Ye didn't object, they immediately turned back, helped the hooligan leader, and ran.

The group soon disappeared into the alley.

Everything returned to silence, as if they had never appeared; the remaining bloodstains and the bloody scent permeating the air were the best evidence that a violent incident had occurred.

Lin Ye let Tachibana Rui hug him; his right hand, which had been stroking the girl's hair, had stopped.

What he could feel was the slight touch brought by the girl's breathing and the pleasant scent emanating from the girl's hair.

Time passed second by second.

Seeing that the girl still had no sign of speaking or letting go, Lin Ye took the initiative to break the silence.

"Alright, it's fine now, the hooligans have run away."

"No..."

"Hmm?"

Lin Ye was puzzled; the hooligans didn't run? That's impossible!

Lin Ye scanned the area, even using X-ray vision, but still didn't see the hooligans' figures.

"It's... great that you could come back."

A sweet female voice with a hint of joy, mixed with a little shyness.

At this moment, Lin Ye confirmed that the girl was happy because of his return.

"I'll be fine,"
