Chapter 66: Tricky People

"What's the situation with the person who was hit? Is he dead?" Guan An asked, focusing on the key points.

Wu Mang's next answer was completely unexpected by him and Su Jin.

"The person is perfectly fine, just a few scrapes, but the fat guy has been detained by them."

Guan An frowned deeply. "What does this mean? The person is fine, so why are they being detained?"

Wu Mang said angrily, "That's right. Fatty and I insisted on taking the person to the hospital and covering all the costs of the examination and treatment. But a lot of people came out of that small village, surrounded us, and demanded compensation before they would let us leave."

"Is that so?" Guan An roughly understood that they had encountered troublemakers who were deliberately trying to extort money from them. "Then how did you get back?"

"They detained the fat man and told me to come back for money, saying they would only release him if I paid five thousand yuan."

Guan An was taken aback when Wu Mang uttered the number.

"They're extorting us!" he shouted, laughing in anger. "Don't panic! They've dared to try and extort us. Let's call the police and get them involved!"

This is also the best solution.

Wu Mang quickly shook his head. "No way. They said if we call the police, we'll break Fatty's legs. It'll be an eye for an eye."

"Simplicity is lawlessness!" Guan An was furious, but he also knew very well that the villagers were clearly trying to extort money. If the police were involved, it would be difficult to handle the situation if they all gave the same story.

And we can't actually let the fat guy get into trouble.

Wu Mang was also furious. "Now I know what it means to be a troublemaker in a poor and remote place. You have no idea how barbaric those villagers are."

Solving this problem is actually quite simple: just tell the elders in the family, and the fat man can be saved in no time.

But it's really not worth bothering your family over something like this.

"Guan An, you need to think of something quickly! I'm afraid things might get complicated if Fatty stays in those people's hands any longer!"

Guan An took a deep breath. "Don't rush. Let's pool our money first, then go rescue Fatty."

"Where can I get five thousand yuan all at once?" Wu Mang reminded him. If he had that kind of money, he would just accept the loss and give it to them.

"How much can you take out? I have more than three hundred yuan here," Guan An asked quickly.

Wu Mang immediately reached into his pocket and said, "I only brought a little over a hundred yuan with me."

After all, no one expected this to happen, and the key is that they can only rely on themselves now.

Guan An's expression was stern. Even with all their money combined, they were still far short, but he still made a decision without hesitation.

"That's all for now. Let's head over there now and deal with those troublemakers!"

When it comes to causing trouble, they've never been afraid of anyone!

"I'll go with you." Su Jin, who had remained silent until now, finally couldn't hold back and spoke up.

Whether it's true or false, she has to go and see for herself.

Otherwise, if something were to happen to the fat man, she would never be able to get over it for the rest of her life.

Guan An refused almost immediately, "What can a girl like you do if you go? We'll have to take care of you at a crucial moment!"

Su Jin knew he was doing it for her safety, since she didn't know what kind of terrible situation was over there.

"This incident happened because of me. Don't worry, I won't drag you down with me."

These three boys are reckless and don't consider the consequences. With her around, she can stop them from causing any serious trouble.
