Chapter 756: Chapter 529 Who Am I?
(College classmates came from Beijing to have a drink with the elderly… They just left in the afternoon, so I’ve been unable to update until now; another chapter will follow later.)
Time seemed to freeze at that moment.
The more composed Mu Fan appeared, the greater the pressure on the policemen became.
As officers who had maintained the peace near Dingchuan Academy for many years, they hadn’t witnessed such a brutal and bloody scene in a very long time.
However, after verifying the individual’s information, the officers struggled to suppress the shock in their hearts.
What this vicious young man had just claimed was actually true…
“Boss, what should we do?”
A young officer asked quietly.
“Get a hold of the situation, put down the handguns; we only need to make sure he stays here.”
The older officer beside him said, recognizing that against the likes of Mu Fan, who obviously surpassed their standards of force, they were no match.
The military’s Staff Department had already been urgently contacted and they had been informed that they would handle it soon.
Mu Fan paid no attention to the officers and calmly turned his head to glance at William behind him.
“Are you alright?”
The chubby William shook his head naively, and looking at Morris’s mangled body in the corner of the wall, his face showed no sign of discomfort or incongruity.
“Go see how Harry and Yin Shuai are doing.”
At the mention of these two names, Mu Fan’s eyebrows twitched. He wanted to burst out with something, but in the end, he held back, nodded, and clenched his fists until they creaked.
He was responsible for the incident that had implicated his friends; if anything serious had happened to them, he couldn’t escape blame.
The barbecue restaurant was in shambles, nearly all the glass shattered, and the customers had already fled.
Mu Fan’s eyes narrowed as he saw White Hair lying in the corner, seriously wounded, no longer exuding his usual carefree air, covered in blood and looking ferocious.
But his pallid, bloodless complexion also appeared extremely weak.
Mu Fan felt relieved when White Hair seemed to hear footsteps, barely opening his eyes, and upon spotting Mu Fan, he weakly grinned:
“I… I’m not dead yet… heh heh, heh heh.”
Mu Fan quickly rushed over, pressing down on White Hair, who was trying to move. He carefully examined the wounds on White Hair’s body; there were seven in total, all penetrating wounds, but none struck a vital point.
“It’s nothing, brother managed to avoid the important parts… trying to kill me… heh, not so easy. How are the others?”
Mu Fan’s chest heaved, his breathing heavy, as he stared at White Hair: “Sorry, this was my fault, I’ve dragged you all into this! Besides you and Harry, the others are fine, I’m going to check on Harry.”
“Between brothers, there’s no need for outsider talk… cough cough,” White Hair weakly shook his head, his tone resolute.
“Fat Brother’s fine… Lucky I didn’t lose weight, otherwise it would be more than just a few broken ribs. Mu Fan, I’m in too much pain to get up now… I want a pretty nurse,” Fat Brother’s faint voice came from behind Mu Fan.
The muttering and cursing finally put Mu Fan completely at ease.
“William, contact the academy, these two can’t be moved and need medical treatment.”
Upon hearing Mu Fan’s words, William on the street nodded vigorously and then dialed the academy instructor’s Sky Communication.
After giving a simple stabilization to the two men, Mu Fan whispered, “The medical team will be here soon. Hang in there. I’ll be going out to handle some matters.”
White Hair nodded, and Fat Brother grunted to indicate his understanding.
Just as Mu Fan was about to leave, White Hair asked with a vicious and eerie look in his eyes, “What about that damned bald fatty? When I’m better, I’ll flatten them with you…”
Mu Fan stopped in his tracks, his right hand covered in dry blood plasma creaking, “I tore him apart with my bare hands.”
White Hair leaned his head against the wooden wall, coughing up blood but laughing heartily, “Good, good.”
“This isn’t over; I promise to make this right.”
Mu Fan’s figure re-emerged from the barbecue restaurant under the watchful eyes of a group of cautious policemen, heading towards Lu Qingxue not far away.
Beep beep, beep beep…
Just as Mu Fan took two steps, suddenly a ringtone from the Sky Communication rang out.
Mu Fan stopped, and the officers also turned their heads in surprise.
All eyes were on Morris’s body as the ringtone from the Sky Communication came from his waist side, with a flashing light indicating its location.
One second, two seconds, three seconds, the ringing showed no sign of stopping.
These people looked towards Mu Fan, the tense police officers were also watching him, unconsciously raising their electromagnetic guns.
Mu Fan glanced indifferently around, stepped forward, and reached out to pull the Sky Communication device from the plasma.
Someone next to him wanted to aim their gun at Mu Fan and shout for him to stop, but the leading senior officer pressed his hand down.
This device differed from the civilian models of Sky Communication; it lacked any video transmission or screen, save for the round button in the center about the size of two thumbs pressed together.
At that moment, this peculiar Sky Communication device was trembling urgently in Mu Fan’s palm.
Under the watchful eyes of those around him, Mu Fan pushed the button, and a soft rustling sound followed.
Mu Fan placed the Sky Communication device to his ear.
“Damn fatso, this is the only Blood Teeth issued in half a year, you’d better handle it carefully. If you screw this up, the boss won’t let you off!”
“Hello? Morris! Are you the damn fatso on the line?”
“Forget it, just come back after you’ve done the job, I’ll hold the fort for you at the boss’ end.”
“Are you, motherfucker, even listening to me?”
Only Mu Fan’s quiet breathing was heard on the Sky Communication device, as he listened to the voice from the Unknown Land while looking at the dying White Hair and Fat Brother, his lips parted slightly:
“I hear you.”
“Good, if you heard… Wait a minute! You’re not Fat Brother! Who are you?” the voice on the Sky Communication device suddenly rose sharply.
“Who am I? Take a guess,” Mu Fan replied indifferently, his questioning tone sending a chill down the spine.
A long silence followed on the other end of the Sky Communication…
“Has Morris fallen?” a cold voice finally came through.
“Oh… So the fatso’s name is Morris,” Mu Fan said, nodding his head slightly, savoring the name, and glancing up to see the fearful looks from those around him, chuckling softly.
“You can check the news in Zhongjing City on Blue Capital Star, I believe you’ll find the answer you’re looking for.”
Having said that, Mu Fan looked at the round Sky Communication device in his hand, then gently tossed it.
“Hand over the Sky Commun…”
Crack!
The Night Teeth Team’s special Sky Communication device fell to the ground, and Mu Fan stepped forward, grinding it into powder.
A female police officer’s words got stuck in her throat and never came out; shaking with anger, she tried several times to raise her weapon but ultimately lacked the courage to do so, ending up just saying furiously:
“You’re openly defying the law! I’ll take you to court!”
Mu Fan cocked his head to look at her, then moved on, completely ignoring her.
“Ladies and gentlemen of the police force, don’t let these people go! They destroyed my barbecue restaurant; I demand compensation for my loss!”
Then, a slimy middle-aged man hurried over, standing on the outskirts and scanning the crowd before his eyes lit up upon seeing the police officers in uniform, and he rushed over wailing.
Fearing Mu Fan’s blood-stained presence in the center of the crowd, he stood beside the female police officer, forcefully overcoming his fear to angrily point at Mu Fan before quickly withdrawing his finger.
Hearing the store owner’s words, the female officer looked at her deputy captain, and a gleam appeared in her eyes; the owner’s timely appearance provided the perfect excuse to keep these people here.
“Don’t you see they are seriously injured? What kind of heartless man are you?”
Bing Su, standing next to Lu Qingxue, couldn’t stand it anymore and spoke up.
“Heart? Then who compensates for my shop? You smashed it, this man is dead! If not you, who else should I ask?”
The slimy store owner looked at the female officer, whose reasonable looks seemed to embolden him, as he shouted with his hands on his hips:
“I’m telling you! No one leaves without compensating, even if I have to go to the supreme court, I’m not scared!” The store owner’s voice grew more forceful.
“What do I care if you live or die? Pay up!”
Mu Fan gave the man an indifferent glance, which frightened the owner into hastily retreating before becoming infuriated and shouting even more loudly as more and more onlookers gathered.
They recognized Lu Qingxue and Bing Su from Dingchuan Academy’s Swordsmanship Club, and as they saw the gruesome scene, they covered their mouths and began to speculate wildly.
However, amidst the curious and guessing stares of the people, the Valkyrie, Lu Qingxue, stepped forward.
