Chapter 405 Recent Situation
Lu Ke greeted them from the front, and Chen Chuan followed him into the car.
He took a few glances at the layout inside. The functional facilities here were quite complete, and the space utilization seemed very reasonable. Mainly because the car body was wide and the top edge was high, there was no cramped feeling like that of ordinary RVs.
Lu Ke said, "How is it? Not bad, right? This is the car that Senior Sister assigned to Master and me. It was modified by a skilled hand in the team. It's our temporary residence. Oh, it's the former student of Master I told you about before."
Chen Chuanshuo said: "It seems that your senior sister has a high status here."
"After the old captain left, she was mainly responsible for security. Later, when Lutong Logistics split up, our branch became the largest and took over the remaining major business. She almost became one of the leaders of the team."
Lu Ke invited Chen Chuan to sit on the sofa to the side, poured him a glass of soda, and casually took a flyer to cushion it and placed it on the table. "Try it." He then said, reminiscing, "It's just that you can't drink Yangzhi's Shazhen soda here. I really like that taste."
Chen Chuan took it and took a sip, finding a sweet taste. He commented, "It feels pretty good." Lu Ke laughed, "Not bad, isn't it."
Chen Chuan put down his cup and looked at the training equipment and several pairs of boxing gloves hanging on the wall of the car. He said, "Have you been following the convoy since you arrived in Central City?"
“Not really.”
Lu Ke sat down, poured himself a cup, gulped down a few sips, and said, "The team originally had a stable base, but recently a conflict with another logistics team occurred, so they left. Hey, let's not talk about these unhappy things. Let's talk about you, Brother Chen. I saw you on the recording, you are really amazing!"
He looked at Chen Chuan and said in disbelief, "Teacher said that you, Brother Chen, are already a fighter of the third level. Is this true?"
Chen Chuan nodded and said, "Not long."
“Really?”
Lu Ke couldn't help but get excited.
He had witnessed Chen Chuan's transformation from a know-nothing to the unmatched fighting expert he is today. Perhaps he was a little jealous at first, but now he was filled with sincere admiration.
Moreover, the past conflicts, when we look back on them now, are still memorable episodes in our lives.
Chen Chuan then asked, "Where is Teacher Yu?"
"The master is teaching his students."
After Chen Chuan learned more about it, he realized that this logistics team consisted of not only members but also their families. Regardless of whether the children of the team members had talents or not, they would ask Yu Gang to teach them fighting techniques.
Because in the downtown environment, force has become a survival skill. If you don’t know simple fighting skills and how to use a gun, you will hardly be able to survive.
Chen Chuan then asked, "How are Teacher Yu's legs and feet?"
Lu Ke's expression darkened slightly as he said, "Cheap implants can be used, but they can only sustain a simple life at best.
But Master is a fighter, and finding implants that match his strength is difficult. Either the price is too high, or the implants can't fully utilize Master's strength. We used up all the money given by the Chain Gang, and only installed a temporary implant for Master."
Chen Chuan said, "If Teacher Yu doesn't mind, I can help with this matter."
Lu Ke was somewhat tempted, but hesitated and said, "The teacher might not agree."
Chen Chuan expressed his understanding. He said, "Teacher, don't worry. Consider this money as a loan to you. I believe that with your ability, once you recover, it will be easy for you to make up the difference."
Lu Ke thought it made sense. He checked the time again and said, "The get out of class will be over in ten minutes. Let's drink this bottle of soda and then go find the master."
Chen Chuan nodded. As he was drinking, he glanced at the flyer under his cup and saw a portrait of a man printed on it. It was a middle-aged man with a neatly trimmed beard, a firm chin and a look that made him look very reliable.
The list read: "Downtown must have its own mayor. I am Meng Xiang, and I can create happiness and a future for you."
He said, "Do you still elect a mayor here?"
Lu Ke said, "No way. I heard this guy used to be a salesman, but suddenly he had this crazy idea of becoming the mayor of downtown. He gives speeches every day in various areas. I heard he's been beaten up many times, and it's been almost six or seven years, but he still refuses to give up. I really admire him for being able to survive after all this."
Chen Chuan said: "If it is not a coincidence, then there must be a reason."
"Maybe."
After about five or six minutes, Lu Ke brought Chen Chuan out of the RV and walked towards the longest multi-unit truck in the fleet.
This car looks like it was converted from a large truck and a passenger car. It is about thirty meters long and about five meters high. Judging from the upper and lower rows of windows and the light shining through it, it should be divided into two floors.
The two of them went up through the sliding door on one side. Inside was a wash-room area and lockers for items. When Chen Chuan changed his shoes, he found that the area was full of pairs of neatly arranged small boots. He could hear faint sounds coming from inside. After turning a partition, he saw a fairly spacious internal training area.
Yu Gang stood in the middle. There were thirty or forty children inside, all sitting in their places very properly. Only one child was demonstrating, and Yu Gang was using a crutch to correct his posture.
Seeing the two of them come in, Yu Gang's gaze stayed on Chen Chuan for a while, but he did not stop teaching.
The two men did not disturb his lecture and walked to the side. Lu Ke pulled down two folding chairs and a folding table from the wall, opened the corner support, and the two of them sat aside and waited.
After more than two minutes, the class ended. Yu Gang let the children move around on their own while he walked over. Chen Chuan immediately stood up and greeted them, "Teacher Yu."
Yu Gang said, "Please sit down. How long have you been here?"
Chen Chuanshuo said: "Not long ago, I just chatted with Brother Lu outside for a while."
Yu Gang slowly sat down with the help of his cane. He looked at Chen Chuanshuo and said, "Lu Ke showed me your video the other day. You're a fighter of the third level. I haven't seen many people achieve such an accomplishment at your age."
Chen Chuan said frankly, "If it weren't for Mr. Yu's guidance, I wouldn't be where I am today."
This is not an exaggeration. Getting started is a very difficult hurdle, not to mention that he had no foundation at the time. If it were not for Yu Gang's patient teaching, he might not be what he is now. Although he has a second self and may have achieved some success, he might be taking a different path now.
Yu Gang said: "With your talent, as long as you are determined to keep going down this path, you will always be able to make it."
At this time, a childish shout came from the front, and a child was seen throwing another child to the ground, but then he pulled the child up in a friendly manner.
Chen Chuan took a look and said, "It seems that the teacher has taught these students well."
Yu Gang said in a deep voice, "They may be able to train very well, but that can only raise their lower limit. Talent is what determines a fighter's upper limit. This is something that many people will never achieve in their lifetime, no matter how much they train."
Chen Chuan did not object. This was true, but even if one had talent, without sufficient resources and correct guidance from a teacher, one might not be able to make it.
He said: "Times are always progressing. It was true in the past. Now technology is developing, and implants can make up for some deficiencies, giving people the opportunity to improve their upper limits."
Yu Gang just shook his head.
Lu Ke came to the side and poured them two cups of tea. Yu Gang said, "From the video recording that day, it seems that you have joined the processing bureau?"
Chen Chuan said, "All students at Wuyi College receive external investment, either from companies or the government. I received investment from the Bureau of Management, so I currently hold a position there."
Yu Gang said in a deep voice: "The processing bureau is also good. It is much better than some companies. The treatment in the company seems better, but they want more in return."
As they were talking, there was a commotion outside, as well as the sound of running footsteps. Yu Gang immediately said to Lu Ke, "Go down and take a look."
Lu Ke went down immediately. After a while, he came back up and said, "Master, it's the team responsible for Area 703. They were attacked by people from the Poison Ant Express."
Yu Gang immediately said, "Let's go down and take a look."
Chen Chuancai had just arrived and had heard several times that the poisonous ants were being transported quickly. It seemed that the competition was indeed very fierce. He got out of the car with Yu Gang and Lu Ke, and saw several trucks and cars parked in the distance. There were many bullet holes on the car bodies, and all the glass windows were broken. Every car even had no doors.
Someone was being carefully carried out of the car, while the less seriously injured were being bandaged and treated.
The bearded man was standing in front with a serious expression, apparently asking questions and understanding the situation of a lightly injured soldier.
Lu Ke said angrily, "Poison Ant Express has been giving us trouble recently. We have given in many times and given up a lot of business in many areas, but they still won't let us go."
Yu Gang stood there, leaning on his crutches. He said in a deep voice, "If you can eat meat, your appetite will always grow. If that piece of meat doesn't resist and keeps tempting you, there's no reason not to keep eating it."
Lu Ke said, "Master, if Lao Bian is willing to take the lead, we won't be at a disadvantage in fighting the Poison Ants."
Yu Gang did not comment on this.
Chen Chuan asked, "Who is this Mr. Bian?"
"He was a security consultant hired by Lutong Logistics before, a third-level fighter who escaped from above. After the logistics were dispersed, he accepted our employment, but he was not very willing to contribute. Otherwise, we wouldn't be in this situation."
"Brother Lu, the scar on your face was caused by the conflict with these people?"
Lu Ke felt a little embarrassed and said, "I wasn't paying attention that time."
At this time, someone shouted: "Sister Nan is back, Sister Nan is back."
Lu Ke perked up and said, "Senior Sister is back."
Following the direction of his gaze, Chen Chuan saw a convoy of two-wheeled motor vehicles emerging from the tunnel entrance with a roar and heading towards the convoy.
