Chapter 2215: Love Trapped in the Cycle of Fate 14

In the second-floor hallway, again encountered Zhao Zu fiercely beating Chen Xiao Fei.

According to Zhao Zu, the cat-raising brother's description yesterday, Chen Xiao Fei had just been beaten by him and, unable to swallow his anger, went to find the thugs in Room 204 to back him up.

After that came the tragedy in Room 204.

Shao Huai recalled Chen Xiao Fei's changed expression yesterday, flew into a rage, rushed over, shouting to break it up while his fists kept pounding.

"Holy shit! Who the hell are you guys!"

Chen Xiao Fei was hit with several punches in a row, barely able to stay on his feet, his face covered in bruises, looking fierce and menacing, leaning against the wall and glaring angrily.

Zhao Zu was still fuming, just about to rush over again to help the kitten get revenge, when he heard a low voice.

"We are staff members of the Cat Protection Association."

Jin Chen appeared righteous and stern.

He added: "Official."

"What... association?" Chen Xiao Fei frowned tightly, "You're just someone Zhao Zu hired to back him up, damn it!"

"Yes, comrade."

Jin Chen said, bending down to pick up the camera that had fallen to the ground, presumably Chen Xiao Fei's, as Zhao Zu had said yesterday that this person liked to randomly take photos all over the apartment.

His long fingers moved slightly, the memory card fell into his palm, and he returned it to Chen Xiao Fei.

"We received a report from this resident early this morning that someone is abusing cats here; the situation is very serious."

Jin Chen glanced at Xie Guan, lightly curling his lips, as if looking at an extremely warm-hearted and kind enthusiastic crowd.

Xie Guan: "......"

Xie Guan responded with a cold smile, gritting his teeth, "Heh, that's what I should do."

Xu Yi finally found a chance to show off, joining this deception.

"Yes, the association specially invited me to help."

Zhao Zu and Chen Xiao Fei's doubts in their hearts instantly diminished by half.

Zhao Zu was overjoyed, "You guys handle cat abuse, great! It's that bastard! He stripped the kitten's fur downstairs! He's practically a beast!"

"...... Damn, you guys have more people, right? Wait for me!"

Chen Xiao Fei stepped back a few steps, staggering toward Room 204.

As expected.

They hurriedly followed.

Zhao Zu scratched his head and also followed.

This... whatever association probably doesn't charge money, right?

Room 204.

Chen Xiao Fei hurriedly knocked on the door, shouting at the top of his lungs: "Jin Ge! Lang Ge!"

The door opened to reveal a small thug wearing a duckbill cap, "Chen Xiao Fei... you..."

Jin Chen pushed him aside and burst in.

Shao Huai's reflex kicked in, he shouted: "Don't move! Hands up above your head, squat down!"

Jin Chen paused, then in sync with the thugs filling the room, slowly turned his head, eyes showing surprise, silently raising an eyebrow.

Is this how you're supposed to cooperate?

Shao Huai: "......" He spoke too quickly.

Xie Guan and Xu Yi both stopped outside the door, unwilling to feel this embarrassment.

"...... You guys, police? "

Zhou Lang stood up holding an iron hammer, highly vigilant.

Shao Huai tried to make up an excuse, "We are......"

Bang!

Jin Chen kicked over the coffee table with his foot, "What's the noise! "

"What business is it of yours what I do? "

His bandit aura fully exposed, extremely arrogant.

Zhou Lang stared for half a second, "Shit! Are you sick?... This is my turf, damn it! "

Jin Chen glanced sideways at Xie Guan; the latter unexpectedly in sync, his mouth twitched slightly, picked up the transparent tape that had fallen on the ground and threw it over.

Jin Chen grabbed Chen Xiao Fei, tore off a piece of tape to seal his mouth, then backhanded him to Shao Huai, throwing the tape toward Zhou Lang and Zhou Jin.

"Your people injured the protected target we're watching over; this matter isn't over."

This time Shao Huai caught the signal, "Exactly, you don't even see which path our big brother is on!"

Chen Xiao Fei:???

He made two muffled sounds, shook his head then nodded.

Zhou Lang relaxed a bit upon hearing they weren't police, glanced at Jin Chen and Shao Huai, then sneered, "Tsk, that path? You guys look like you came out of some nightclub mold."

In just a few tens of seconds, Jin Chen had already observed the room's situation again, but still could not rule out Chen Xiao Fei's suspicion.

But similarly, aside from the victim Zhou Jin in the room, the other thugs could also be the murderer.

"It's the East Glory faction; it's normal if you haven't heard of it."

Jin Chen spoke coldly, his icy brows concealing contempt, "If it weren't for my boyfriend being here, I wouldn't bother to care."

"My dear says you often go to the convenience store to cause trouble for him."

Jin Chen pulled a dagger from his pocket, then casually leaned against the sofa, lifting his eyes lazily.

The monitor was placed under the sofa, facing the doorway.

Zhou Lang froze for a moment, seeing that the aura was indeed not simple, and moreover...

The thugs looked again at the usually cold and quiet Xie Guan, recalling what they had done at the convenience store, and collectively swallowed.

"You… your boyfriend is a gangster, why didn't you say so earlier?!" Zhou Jin jumped to her feet.

Xie Guan fell silent for a moment.

Even if he had said it earlier, he would have only just found out.

Xie Guan did not want to interrupt Jin Chen's improvisation, and lightly leaned against the sofa.

"Now you know."

Very cold-hearted.

As if being backed up.

Jin Chen naturally put his arm around Xie Guan's waist and pulled him into his embrace, saying, "Don't worry, bro, I'll take care of it."

His tone actually gained a bit more sincerity.

Xie Guan's eyelashes twitched, his tense back relaxed a little, and he leaned into Jin Chen's embrace without struggling.

Really, a sentence that leaves one unable to refuse.

【Detected Villain Blackening Value -2, total 83!】

The thugs showed apprehension, already thinking about whether to simply call for backup.

Only Xu Yi, who was watching at the door, quietly asked Shao Huai, "Which faction is the East Glory faction?"

Shao Huai honestly said, "We're the big name of the police academy dormitory building."

Xu Yi: "……""

Upon hearing this, Chen Xiao Fei's eyes widened, "Mmm mmm!! Mmm mmm!"

Jin Chen glanced at the door, "What's the noise? If you keep making noise, I'll chop off your hand and gouge out your eye."

Chen Xiao Fei:???

Having said that, Jin Chen scanned the expressions of everyone in the room.

Identical shock.

As for the deceased Zhou Jin, a subtle fear flashed across his face, and he instinctively touched his pocket.

"Is… it you?"

Jin Chen immediately: "What?"

Zhou Jin's face turned deathly pale as he pulled out a crumpled debt proof from his pocket, his hand trembling slightly, "Did you investigate my debt evidence? And you wrote this thing to threaten me?!"

Jin Chen snatched it away, lowered his eyes, and examined it closely.

It was a deliberately investigated usury debt; the amount was far beyond what the residents of this building could bear, and behind it were two threatening phrases, written in a flourishing hand:

Don't repay the money, lack integrity.

Chop off the hand, gouge out the eye, demanding your life!!

The room fell somewhat silent.

Even Zhou Lang broke out in a cold sweat from fear.

These people of theirs are just errand runners for the big boss, fighting and mixing in society; how could they possibly come into contact with a pervert of this level!

In the Silence, Xie Guan's gaze drifted across the room and finally settled on the contract pressed beneath the fallen coffee table.

Perhaps because he now had some 'support', seeing that line on the contract again, Xie Guan's reaction wasn't as strong as before.

Xie Guan lightly bit his tongue, glanced sideways, and whispered a few words near Jin Chen's ear.

Jin Chen lifted his eyelids, slightly raised his chin, "Give me that contract on the ground."

Trembling with fear, Zhou Jin shuddered again, exchanged a glance with Zhou Lang, and hearing the sound of Jin Chen lightly tapping the dagger on his palm, hurriedly picked up the contract and handed it over.

"…Xie Family Real Estate."

Jin Chen suddenly thought of something, his gaze restrained as he looked at Xie Guan, even his inquiry carried caution.

Xie Guan noticed, but instead didn't mind as much. "Yeah, Xie Family Real Estate."

"With the boss of Xie Family Real Estate dead, you still could use this purchase contract to demand payment from Fang Ru's mother and daughter in room 603—who's pulling the strings behind the scenes?" Xie Guan brought it up himself, speaking coldly.

Zhou Jin: "How do you even know this?!"
