"Do you need my help?"
The boxing champion was quick-witted. He buried his thoughts deep in his heart and then raised his hand, wanting to show off in front of the two of them.
"No need. This person is a bit difficult to deal with. As for you... there's no way to determine a winner directly."
Zhuang Zhuliu gently patted the handle of the wheelchair. The boxing champion understood, quickly walked over, took the handle from his hand, and then Zhuang Zhuliu slowly walked forward until he came to Old Leopard's side.
At this moment, Zhuang Zhuliu's previous timidity seemed to be nothing but a facade. Now that the facade was removed, a sharp and ruthless aura emanated from him.
The boxing champion stood in the spot where Zhuang Zhuliu had stood. Although what was said was an implicit message to the boxing champion that he was not strong enough to kill Old Leopard instantly, it was the truth.
When a master faces another master, he can roughly judge the opponent's level and his chances of winning by observing their aura.
Such general judgments are often vague and incomplete, but the results often match the predictions.
A boxing champion isn't the kind of fool who would go against his intuition.
Therefore, he didn't say much, but quietly watched what was about to happen.
"Old man, if you want to step forward, ask the guy behind you. You? No way."
The old leopard glanced sideways and then chuckled.
"The boxing champion has some reputation, and I can respect him to some extent in Jiang City. But you're nobody, and you're already old. Now you want to jump out and make a name for yourself? I'm afraid you'll run out of money on your medical insurance card!"
The old leopard spoke in a gloomy tone.
His gaze never lingered on Zhuang Zhuliu; it remained fixed on the boxing champion behind him.
In Lao Bao's mind, only by defeating someone like the boxing champion, whose reputation was similar to his own, could he prove his own status.
This serves as a warning to others and can also reduce some competitors, killing two birds with one stone.
Old Leopard's plan was sound, the only mistake was...
Based on his abilities, he couldn't discern Zhuang Zhuliu's level.
Therefore, the outcome of this battle was never in doubt from the very beginning.
"I thought that anyone invited by the Gemini to carry out a mission, even if there were some incompetent ones, would at least have sharp eyes and be able to see the situation clearly... Now it seems that I overestimated you."
Zhuang Zhuliu stepped forward slowly, shaking his head as he said, "Not only do you lack strength, but you also have some problems with your eyes."
"Can't you see even now that you're just like a jumping monkey?"
Zhuang Zhuliu's lips curled slightly, and his heavy, oppressive voice, carrying the weight of years, delivered a direct and unvarnished mockery of Lao Bao.
"You fucking..."
As expected, the old leopard was instantly enraged, and its eyes turned fierce.
He had originally thought that Zhuang Zhuliu was getting old, so perhaps he should go easy on him and stop once he was sure the other party was willing to back down.
After all, he had just been released by law enforcement, and it would be too much of a loss if he went back to jail for assaulting an elderly person.
But how dare this old geezer mock me like that?!
"You've lived to such an old age, and you still can't learn to bow your head and be a decent person? Fine, fine... since you're courting death, don't blame me for disrespecting the elderly!"
Old Leopard's nose almost twisted from anger, and his gaze shifted from the boxing champion to Zhuang Zhuliu for the first time.
He had already made plans: after beating up this old geezer, he would go and take care of the boxing champion.
In this way, no one else dared to compete with him.
Then kill Xia Che, and get the reward you want from that mysterious woman, the Twins...
A brand new, fully equipped and staffed orphanage, plus a large sum of money.
Old Leopard was born in an orphanage.
In his time, without education or skills, if one wanted to gain a foothold in society and support his younger siblings who were not related by blood, the only option was to take an unconventional path, what the older generation often called the "evil path."
So, Lao Bao started collecting protection money, acting as a bouncer, fighting, brawling, and fighting with other thugs over who had the right to collect protection money on a street.
He's spent most of his life struggling, but he hasn't made anything of himself.
But at least his younger siblings have meat to eat every meal and can afford to go to school.
Old Leopard had lost hope for his own future, but he wanted to give hope to everyone in the orphanage.
Therefore, when the Geminis approached him, Old Leopard had already decided what kind of reward he wanted.
In his view, killing Xia Che was unfair to Xia Che, but for the sake of his younger brothers and sisters, Lao Bao was willing to bear the pangs of his conscience.
The death of an insignificant person can be exchanged for a new orphanage, which can then support everyone.
This deal was very worthwhile.
Everything is wonderful.
But Old Leopard's plan was destined to fail.
Zhuang Zhuliu, having lost his patience, rushed forward and charged straight at the old leopard.
"try to find……"
Old Leopard grinned maliciously, his sudden thoughts abruptly halted. He stared intently at Zhuang Zhuliu charging towards him, trying to discern the other's movements.
He had already made his plans. When Zhuang Zhuliu rushed over, he would punch him to the ground, and then deliver a powerful downward strike. Although he was small, he weighed over 130 pounds. If he landed on the old man, the old man would either die or be in critical condition for a long time.
Having served as someone's henchman for so many years, Lao Bao is like a professor when it comes to fighting—knowing exactly how and from what angle to defeat an enemy in one move.
But……
Known for his speed, Old Leopard is a fearsome figure in the underworld, capable of taking on an entire gang single-handedly.
He couldn't even see the speed of an old man.
Old Leopard tried hard to keep up with the other's movements, and swallowed back the rest of his sentence.
Moreover, he will never have the chance to tell anyone in this lifetime.
Zhuang Zhuliu had appeared behind him in a flash, without him even realizing it.
A line of blood appeared on the old leopard's neck.
A sweet taste began to fill his mouth, and his whole brain felt warm, as if a warm feeling was constantly surging through his limbs, making him want to drift off to sleep.
This feeling...
Very relaxing.
For no apparent reason, old leopard's past memories began to surface and slowly play back in his mind.
That was his past.
Looking back on his life, Lao Bao didn't have any remarkable experiences to show for himself. He was just a small-time hoodlum and a henchman for a big shot.
Fighting, slashing, the other person's screams, screams, and...
money.
In the old dog's mind, there were only these images associated with violence.
"Just one step away..."
The old leopard's eyelids began to feel heavy.
