Protagonist:

Lu Feng

Hu Ge behind Lu Feng couldn't help but roll his eyes, cursing the fatty bloody in his heart.

This dumbass!

Told you not to announce yourself, and what do you do? You go and shout out my name directly?

Afraid they won't be able to find me afterwards, are you?

One of these days I'm gonna get done in by that broken mouth of yours!

But right now Hu Ge didn't have the leisure to bicker with the fatty; he patted the shorty's shoulder, lowered his voice and said: "Together, quick fight quick finish!"

The shorty nodded; his figure was indeed agile — Hu Ge's words had just fallen when he darted behind Lu Feng in a flash.

"Wait a moment."

Just as the three were preparing to move, Lu Feng suddenly raised his hand in a pause gesture.

His tone was still steady, sounding not the least bit panicked.

Hu Ge's brows furrowed; he couldn't help wondering: How is Boss Lu not afraid at all? Could he still have some trump card?

But he still called off the fatty and shorty who were readying to act: "Wait first, let's see what else Boss Lu has to say."

After calling the pause, Lu Feng first tossed the garbage bag in his hand into the garbage bin.

He had only come out to throw trash; if the bag tore later and garbage scattered everywhere, it would inevitably add trouble for the sanitation workers responsible for cleaning.

They come every day before dawn to clear garbage, already hard enough; Lu Feng didn't want to increase their workload.

Done throwing the trash, Lu Feng dusted off his hands, turned around, and faced the three closing in again.

At the same time, he silently called the System in his mind: "System, aren't you usually pretty godly? Let me ask — do you have any technique that can instantly heal injuries? Or… something like a resurrection spell?"

The System responded in his mind very quickly.

【Warm Reminder: This System does not contain the unconventional functions mentioned by the Host; this function exceeds the System's capability scope. Please, Host, do not propose unrealistic fantasies.】

"Since you don't have those, and your Host is now in danger, you're just going to stay indifferent and not do anything? Like help me call the police or something?"

Lu Feng felt his pocket, but felt nothing.

When he came out to throw trash just now he hadn't brought his phone; the phone was still on the Kitchen's Operation Counter.

Otherwise he wouldn't need the System to help call the police.

【Host has obtained Full Level Fighting Technique, can resolve current crisis independently, no additional assistance needed.】

"I know I have this skill, of course."

Lu Feng's face remained calm on the surface, but his heart was drumming: "But I've never put this fighting technique into practice! What if I hit too hard later and cripple someone?"

The reason he sought the System's help wasn't because he was worried he couldn't beat these three.

It was entirely because he feared he wouldn't control his strength and send them to the Hospital.

Then he'd not only have to compensate medical fees, he might even end up in the Small Black Room for a few days.

From childhood on, Lu Feng had always been a law-abiding, morally-intellectually-physically-aesthetically-labor fully developed good citizen.

Fighting — he had never done it before.

When he drew the fighting technique reward before, he even complained to the System, feeling the reward was of no use to him at all.

After obtaining the reward, he never practiced it either, only occasionally drilled by himself in the Villa; he never thought of using it to fight people.

After all, he runs a Restaurant, not a boxing gym.

But the current situation — it seems this fighting technique really has come in handy.

He couldn't help suspecting: Did the System foresee he'd encounter this situation, so it gave him the Full Level Fighting Technique reward?

But the System had no intention of explaining these doubts in Lu Feng's heart; no matter how he called, it didn't respond again, going completely silent.

"Dog System really unreliable; looks like I can only rely on myself."

Lu Feng helplessly muttered in his heart, then straightened his back, gaze sweeping over the three, finally settling on the tall man: "You're Hu Ge, right? What business do you have with me?"

Hu Ge was about to speak when the fatty said with mockery: "Yo, Boss Lu knows Hu Ge's reputation? Since you know, why were you so ungrateful yesterday? Hu Ge gave you face, asked you to open a special stove and cook a few dishes, and you still weren't happy?"

Hu Ge couldn't help clenching his fists, temples throbbing.

If the fatty weren't standing a few steps away, he'd really want to stamp his size-43 shoe on the fatty's big face.

Damn it, just because you love running your mouth?

He knows my name only because you, with your cheap mouth, just told him?

And you even bring up yesterday's special-stove thing — isn't that blatantly telling him they're the same bunch from yesterday?

Seen stupid, never seen this stupid!

Had I known the fatty was this stupid, better to have let him replace Yellow Hair keeping watch outside.

Pig teammates really can't be carried!

"Yesterday?"

Prompted by the fatty's words, Lu Feng recalled in his mind and soon remembered: "Oh, so it's you guys? What do you want blocking me here today?"

"Do you even need to ask?"

The fatty sneered, shook his fist: "You think I'd believe we want to become sworn brothers? Of course it's…"

"Enough, fatty, shut the hell up!"

Hu Ge finally couldn't hold back, suddenly letting out a low shout.

Today he'd truly submitted to this fatty — not a brain cell to be found.

If this leaky mouth of his kept going, who knew — he might even blabber where his old nest was.

"Eldest Brother, it's getting late."

The short one was far more sharp-witted than the fatty; he glanced toward the alley entrance and gave Hu Ge a low-voiced reminder.

"Mm, watch it when you make a move — don't damage his hands."

Hu Ge rolled his neck, loosened his limbs, and his knuckles let out crisp cracking sounds.

"Hey hey, you guys really gonna beat someone up? Can't you sit down and talk things out properly?"

Lu Feng couldn't help but frown, and said facing the group.

He wasn't afraid of a fight — the Full Level Fighting Technique the system gave him left him without the slightest fear of these three before him.

Seeing the three had no reaction at all to his persuasion and still pressed in step by step, Lu Feng then assumed a steady defensive stance, his tone turning cold: "I'm advising you — if you few leave now nothing will happen, but once fists really fly you'll regret it!"

Hu Ge gave a savage grin: "Posing quite the part, aren't you? Watch too many movies? You think you're Li Xiao Long or Ye Wen?"

Then he waved at the fatty and the short one, shouting: "Brothers, all together! Don't waste nonsense on him!"
