The sound of running and shouting.
The sound was particularly jarring and even a little eerie in the dilapidated and quiet factory.
Lu Chi: [Damn! They really came up here! One against eight, what do we do if we can't win?]
When Lu Sangning saw everyone chasing after Lu Chi, she began to panic.
Just now she wanted Lu Chi to save her, but now she doesn't want him to save her anymore.
Because Lu Chi is only 18 years old, still a big kid, and he's all alone.
There was simply no way they could be a match for Zhang Yong, a grown man, and his seven bodyguards.
Those people who can be called bodyguards are naturally skilled in martial arts, and their skills are not bad.
The reason he doesn't resist when I deal with him normally is...
First, she didn't have any bodyguards with her, and second, she deliberately prevented her bodyguards from taking action, all in an attempt to win her back.
Even if you bring bodyguards, if things really come to a head and a fight breaks out, it's hard to say who will win.
How could Lu Chi possibly defeat him alone?
Thinking of this, Lu Sangning's heart clenched.
He turned his head to look at the second floor and shouted anxiously, "Run!"
She deliberately avoided mentioning Lu Chi's name because she knew Zhang Yong hadn't seen who was upstairs, thus giving Lu Chi more opportunities to escape.
Guagua, anxiously: [Host, run straight ahead along this passage for about 10 meters until you reach the end of the road. Turn right, and there's a restroom ahead. The door is fairly sturdy; run inside and hide for a bit.]
Lu Chi: [Damn! This is so tragic! I crawled in through a dog hole, and now I have to hide in the bathroom...]
Guagua: [Um, host, please make do for now...]
Lu Chi: "..."
What else can we do?
Run!
Lu Chi mustered the spirit he had displayed when he won first place in the 100-meter race at school, and sprinted to the corner at the end of the road in just a few strides.
Turn right quickly, open the door, go into the bathroom, and lock the door!
Fortunately, although the factory was dilapidated, the bathroom door was still in good condition.
There was also a wooden stick inside. Lu Chi propped one end of the stick against the door and the other end against the corner of the wall.
The door was blocked tightly.
The series of actions had just been completed, and before they could even catch their breath, there was a loud banging on the door.
"Who's inside? How dare you ambush me from behind? Get out here right now!"
"come out!"
"Get out here right now! Did you hear me?"
"I'll see who you are!"
Lu Chi didn't say anything, but stood in the bathroom looking around.
The bathroom is small.
All four walls are made of old-fashioned tiles.
The toilet was filled with dried, thick ash-covered excrement.
There is a sliding window next to the squat toilet, which has become rusty because it has not been opened for many years.
Lu Chi shook the window hard, trying to see if there was anywhere outside to escape.
Guagua shook her head: [Host, stop struggling. There are only walls outside, no way out.]
Lu Chi: [...]
Outside the door, Zhang Yong and his bodyguards roared one after another.
Lu Chi asked Guagua, "How long until the police arrive?"
Guagua: [It will take about 15 minutes.]
Lu Chi: [Can this door hold out for 15 minutes?]
Guagua: [No, my initial estimate is that it can hold out for about 5 minutes.]
Outside the door, Zhang Yong took a few steps back and began kicking the door.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Lu Chi: [What about the remaining 10 minutes?]
Guagua: [Gets hit!]
Lu Chi: "..."
Door, be strong!
Don't let me look down on you!
Zhang Yong kicked the door several times from the outside, but it wouldn't budge because there were wooden sticks blocking it from the inside.
Zhang Yong rubbed his hands together and continued kicking the door violently.
Lu Chi knew that the door would be kicked down in 5 minutes. He sighed and began to deeply manipulate Guagua to see if he could get anything useful out of him.
For example, combat strength or something...
We can't just passively take a beating, can we?
If a transmigrator like myself doesn't know anything, then I'm just too useless!
...Although I was already pretty useless to begin with.
In the real world, as a minor internet celebrity, besides being able to sing and perform, I also have a bit of a comedic talent.
He was a complete failure in academics, and utterly inept in a fight.
I finally managed to transmigrate, and although I became the real young master of the richest family, tall, strong and powerful.
But you need to have some really impressive skills, right?
Let's get the system to reveal its true intentions and see if we can gain anything.
The systems in most novels all have their own special features!
Lu Chi: [I want to unbind the system!]
Guagua, scared: [Ah, host...why did you untie me for no reason?]
Lu Chi: [Because you're useless! Others transmigrate into books and are bound to systems, and their systems are incredibly powerful, granting their hosts all sorts of heaven-defying skills, making them omnipotent and god-like beings.]
Guagua: [...] Listened silently without saying a word.
Lu Chi: [But you're something else, a gossip-loving system. Besides chatting about rumors, what else can you do? I'm about to get beaten up, can you help me?]
Guagua thought for a moment.
He shook his head.
I thought about it again.
Oh well, never mind.
Let's not hide it anymore.
Those secret stashes of money (gossip coins) will ultimately be lost.
Guagua: [Host, actually, my system isn't just for eating melons. We have a system shop that can provide various skills to our respective hosts.]
For example, good looks, a physique with eighteen-pack abs, constantly upgrading combat skills, superb medical skills, awesome superpowers, and so on.
