Chapter 195 That gossipy woman deserves a beating!

When Zuo Shan and Pan Duole arrived at the meeting point in the central square, the headlights of two large trucks illuminated the meeting point as if it were daytime.

The lights were too bright, and she was squinting as she searched for Ding Yi's small figure when she heard a familiar voice behind her:

"Zuo Shan! It really is you! I was thinking of asking you yesterday if you wanted to come along, and then I saw your name on the list of family members that was submitted. I didn't expect that Ding Tai knew you too."

Kang Zhenghao acted like an old acquaintance, so Zuo Shan had no choice but to greet him despite the strange looks from the others: "Commander Kang, hello!"

"Shh! Girl, please add the word 'deputy' to it. Our commander, Chang Lin, is here today. I'm just a deputy commander." Kang Zhenghao made a shushing gesture and then gave her a knowing look.

Zuo Shan couldn't help but laugh, and readily agreed, "Hello, Deputy Commander Kang!"

"Hey! That's more like it, girl. You're obviously smart. But I didn't expect you to bring your child along. Your kid will definitely be very knowledgeable when he grows up!" Kang Zhenghao casually praised him before getting back to business.

Ding Tai and Ding Yi also came over. As soon as Ding Yi saw Pan Duole, he went over and chattered away. Ding Tai watched them get into the second-floor passenger seats of the truck before climbing up to the first-floor mercenary seats with his teammates.

Today, all 68 members of the Fearless Mercenary Group set off, plus two family members each, for a total of 204 people.

The Fearless Mercenary Group is relatively well-equipped and frequently receives missions. Compared to the Flying Tiger Mercenary Group, they are more generous, and their tickets are free.

However, 50% of the supplies collected by family members must be handed over; this is a customary rule that applies everywhere.

Ding Yi was especially happy today. She had participated in similar missions twice before. Although the mercenary families didn't dare to openly bully her because she was just a young girl from District 50, the good gathering spots she had her eye on were always taken by others.

She couldn't beat them, arguing was a waste of time, and complaining was useless, so she could only silently walk away and go somewhere else.

The mercenaries couldn't be bothered with such things. Her uncle also had missions to do and couldn't protect her all the time.

But today was different; she had companions, including an adult named Zuo Shan, so Ding Yi held her head high.

Zuo Shan overheard a gossiping woman whispering, "Oh! Could this woman be Ding Yi's uncle's lover? She's not bad looking."

"Hmph! This girl thinks she's found a powerful backer, but she doesn't know that if this woman becomes her aunt in the future, she'll be crying before she knows it."

"Exactly! This woman brought her girl and baby with her. Ding Yi will probably become her free babysitter!"

"Isn't that right? They say that having a stepmother means having a stepfather, and Ding Tai is just her uncle, not her biological father. When the time comes, he'll be all family with his own woman, so why would he care about the life or death of a niece!"

The women thought they were speaking quietly enough, and the noise from the moving truck provided cover for them, so Zuo Shan couldn't hear what they were saying at all.

However, what they didn't know was that both Zuo Shan and Pan Duole were superhumans, and even Ding Yi had long since awakened her superhuman abilities, although her superhuman abilities couldn't enhance her combat power.

However, the superhumans have keen senses, and they could hear every conversation in the carriage clearly.

Pan Duole was furious, but when she remembered that she and her sister had only used Ding Tai's quota and were not actually mercenary family members, she didn't dare to rush out and argue with them.

Ding Yi couldn't stand it any longer. He stood up, grabbed the armrest of the car seat, and shouted, "What nonsense are you talking about? Sister Fan is my friend. I asked my uncle to invite them!"

"Why are you getting so worked up, little girl? We're saying this for your own good, to give you a heads-up, so you don't get sold out and end up helping them count the money." The gossipy woman A, seeing that her whispering had been overheard, looked at Zuo Shan with a provocative expression.

“Auntie, instead of worrying about others, why don’t you go and do your own thing? Look at your clothes, they’re all torn, and the burlap sack you’re carrying is all frayed!” Zuo Shan said coldly, glancing at her.

"My clothes are torn, which proves that I'm spending clean money, unlike you, who spread your legs every night and makes money easily!" the woman said angrily.

Ding Yi was too young to understand what she meant, but Pan Duole had already understood. She was instantly furious, and two small flames appeared in her palms.

Seeing this, Zuo Shan quickly shook his head at her, then used his speed ability to instantly appear in front of the woman and slapped her twice.

Before she could react, she had already returned to her original position.

Most mercenary families had never seen the speed ability, but a very small number of families had seen it with their own eyes. They were so shocked that they opened their mouths wide and didn't dare to utter a sound.

The gossipy woman who got slapped experienced it firsthand, and was shocked but even more terrified.

Although there is no explicit rule on Green Algae Star that allows superpowered individuals to kill ordinary people at will, no one cares if they do.

After all, the victims' families are usually ordinary people who don't have the guts to sue a superhuman. And even if a superhuman is sued, they won't be sentenced to death. At most, they'll be sent to a relatively dangerous place on the front lines to kill mutated beasts.

As long as they don't die, won't they find a chance to wipe out your whole family?

The man of this gossipy woman is just an ordinary power-type ability, the most common and least valuable kind of ability.

Zuo Shan, on the other hand, displays a speed-based ability. If she were at a slightly higher level, the leader of the Fearless Mercenary Group would probably actively recruit her.

Thinking of this, the gossipy woman covered her face and lowered her head, never daring to look up again.

Ding Yi and Pan Duole stared wide-eyed, completely unable to believe that the gentle Fan Sister could have such a violent side. But this feeling was really exhilarating! This gossipy woman deserved to be beaten!

The other passengers in the carriage were also frightened, and for a moment there was a sense of panic, and the carriage was deathly silent.

The 35-kilometer distance was quickly covered. The vehicle stopped, the door opened, and a mercenary shouted, "Get out!"
