Chapter 927: Childhood Sweetheart Days 21

You're tired from running, you little bastard, still dare to talk back to me? If I don't beat you guys until you call for your mother today, then my surname isn't Zhong!

Zhong Jia brought his men and blocked them at the alley entrance, his aura fierce, the flesh on his face trembling.

You with your pale face, looking like a weak chick, still dare to stand up for others? You're the one who hit my sister's boyfriend, huh? You've come to the end of my gun!

The more Zhong Jia spoke, the closer he got, swaying that hammer in his hand, raising it high with a vicious grin.

The poor bearded five were so frightened they could barely stand, yet they had to stand alongside Jin Chen, wondering if this person could be beaten; for several ten thousand dollars, did they not value their lives...

Inside, he was torn between heaven and man; in a daze, a figure flashed by.

The bearded man stared in shock, lifting his head to look.

Jin Chen had somehow appeared before Zhong Jia, reverse-gripping the arm holding the hammer and side-kicking, striking Zhong Jia's head; in pain, Zhong Jia had no time to react, only able to release his hand to protect his head.

Jin Chen snatched the hammer, turned and swung it down.

Damn!

The hammer struck Zhong Jia squarely on the back of the head, leaving him dazed as he toppled to the side.

He touched his head, fresh blood flooding his eyes, 'Damn it! Today I'll kill you!'

Finding the hammer awkward to use, Jin Chen tossed it at the lackeys behind the Zhong household, drew a dagger, and stabbed.

Ahhh!!

Zhong Jia's anguished cry made everyone's movements pause.

The bearded few opened their mouths wide, eyes bulging, not even daring to breathe.

The dagger plunged into Zhong Jia's body, leaving only the hilt outside; Jin Chen grabbed him and threw him against the wall, his expression still smiling.

Noticing everyone's gaze turning toward him, Jin Chen slipped his arm in again, and in the darkness he clearly heard the sound of flesh being cut.

Ahhhhh——!

Zhong Yin saw this, screamed, and went completely limp on the ground.

Brother…! Brother!

Pfft——

Zhong Jia spat out a mouthful of blood, unable to believe he could force out a voice: 'You dare……kill someone……'

Who said you would die?

Jin Chen pulled out the dagger, his fingertips twitching slightly.

Huh……

Zhong Jia trembled as he reached to touch his chest; the pain remained, yet he could find no wound.

It was as if……as if the injury inside his body still existed, but the skin had been sewn over.

Realizing this, his gaze at Jin Chen was no different from looking at a monster.

Jin Chen patted the dirt off his arm, flipped the dagger, hilt pointing at the person beside Zhong Jia, 'Hold it.'

That person, fearing he might be next, could only take the dagger.

Zhong Yin, the person you were looking for.

Jin Chen smiled, looking at the girl collapsed on the ground, unable to even crawl.

Do you want to avenge Liu Xing?

No… I was wrong… I really was wrong! I don't want to die, please let me go!

Zhong Yin's tears and snot streamed down, her heavy makeup washed away, all she could do was beg for mercy.

You're crying so miserably, do you regret it?

Zhong Yin nodded frantically.

Suddenly a anguished cry, her fingers stepped on and crushed, a piercing sound that also evoked pity.

Jin Chen lowered his head to look at her, his gaze indifferent, 'Regret is useless; you should be grateful that if those five hadn't been bribed yesterday, Song Xu wouldn't have had a heart attack.'

He paused a moment, then said slowly, 'You will die miserably.'

He moved his foot aside, smiled at the five stunned men, 'You can scram; just remember to sleep well tonight, as if you never came out.'

The bearded man was still the quickest to react, 'Yes yes yes! We didn't come out tonight! We haven't even seen you!'

Having said that, he shoved the other four and hurriedly ran.

Too scary!! From now on he'll have nothing to do with this kind of thing; tomorrow he'll go find a job!

Jin Chen said to the person holding the dagger, 'Tonight, you and Zhong Jia clashed over uneven spoils.'

What…?

The next second, a police siren wailed.

Everyone stared blankly at Jin Chen.

No…… is this person crazy?

Now letting the police come over—isn't that just seeking death?

Jin Chen patted his school uniform, stepped back two paces, and waved.

Goodbye, enjoy your time in prison.

A snap of fingers sounded, and his figure vanished.

Everyone: ……

Ahhh!

Zhong Yin burst into fearful screams again.

When Jin Chen returned to the school building, he saw outside the classroom of Class Gao Er Yi Ban on the third floor, a crowd of students gathered.

His steps paused, receiving Cheng Huai's frantic hint from lying on the balcony, urging him to hurry up.

Something's off; things are starting to feel off.

——

Time returned to the tenth minute after Jin Chen left.

Liu Xiao returned from the senior teacher's office, books in hand, just stepped into the classroom, and saw Jin Chen's seat empty.

He was certain that when he had just passed the homeroom teacher's office, he had only seen Song Xu.

In other words… Jin Chen had skipped class.

Liu Xiao's expression showed a hint of joy; he had finally caught him red-handed!

He didn't even have time to put his books down before turning and heading to Old Cao's office.

"Reporting, Teacher, Senior Teacher Yan wants to find Jin Chen, but I discovered he wasn't in the classroom… he might have already left a long time ago."

Old Cao and Song Xu looked up at the same time.

Old Cao asked Song Xu, 'Where did your brother go?'

Song Xu hesitated for only half a second before smoothly replying, 'I forgot to take my medicine tonight, so my brother went to the dorm to get it for me.'

Old Cao had no suspicions and said concernedly, 'You need to take your medicine on time; you're a key student our school is cultivating, your health can't have any problems.'

'Okay, Teacher.' Song Xu gave an obedient smile.

'Teacher, I don't think getting medicine from the dorm should take this long.' Liu Xiao interjected again.

He secretly stared at Song Xu, obviously angered by that remark about being a key student.

Liu Xiao: 'Besides, I remember Jin Chen has a prior record, Teacher Cao…'

"Report! … Ah, hello Teacher, I'm getting teaching materials for Teacher Li."

Chu Han's appearance just interrupted his words, sensing the office atmosphere was strange, he silently locked eyes with Song Xu.

Song Xu quietly made a gesture to him; Chu Han suddenly understood, grabbed the teaching materials and ran out, saying, 'Thank you, Teacher!'

Chu Han ran to Class 1, swooping like a gust of wind to Cheng Huai's side, lowering his voice so as not to disturb the other students.

'Ah Huai! This… hero!'

Mu Henian: '……'

Chu Han: 'Is Brother Chen out? That Liu Xiao from your class went to the office to tattle! And you even had the homeroom teacher go look for him!'

'What!'

Cheng Huai stood up in shock, 'No way… Jin Chen probably isn't at school right now.'

He must be busy scolding Zhong Yin!

'The phone isn't getting through.'

Mu Henian, who is extremely proactive, hung up the phone and said, 'I'll go stall.'

'No, no, no, you're definitely going to look for the principal; that'll just expose us even more.'

Cheng Huai grabbed Mu Henian, and suddenly a idea flashed.

'I'll call a few buddies to go question Old Cao; Henian, you keep calling; if that really doesn't work, you call Uncle Jin and have him tell Old Cao that Jin Chen suddenly went home—he'll definitely help!'

Thanks to Jin Chen's usual good connections, Cheng Huai got a few classmates to agree, and they swarmed toward the office with their exercise books.
