Upon hearing this, Li Dahai opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing more.
Because he knew that no matter what he said, he couldn't change Wang Jianqiang's decision. He blamed himself for getting involved with the other party; otherwise, he wouldn't have been called out of the school gate a couple of days ago, given fifty yuan without a word, and told that he needed Wang Jianqiang's help with something.
He immediately sensed something was wrong, so he refused to accept the fifty yuan no matter what, but the other party didn't give him a chance to refuse. They stuffed the money into his hand and then left with their arms around each other's shoulders.
Now, he's essentially on a pirate ship; he can't just get off whenever he wants.
Thinking of this, Li Dahai couldn't help but feel a pang of regret.
If he hadn't gotten to know people like Wang Jianshe and Niu Dazhi earlier, would he be in this mess today?
However, there's no going back in this world.
There are no "what ifs".
Using the light from the flashlight, Song Lan moved forward step by step, noticing that something was amiss ahead.
In an instant, she became alert.
To avoid alerting the enemy, Song Lan maintained her normal pace, as if she hadn't noticed anything.
Before she could make a move, the person hiding in the shadows suddenly darted out from around the corner of the workshop ahead, wearing a headscarf that women use in winter to protect themselves from the wind, and rushed towards her.
So reckless?
They were clearly doing something shady, and when they noticed her patrolling, instead of trying to escape immediately, they actually went to her to seek attention!
Song Lan was puzzled, but that didn't stop her from kicking the two people who were attacking her.
To be fair, she kicked each of them once.
Then, a series of heavy thuds echoed as objects fell to the ground.
Okay, and it was accompanied by the sound of splashing water.
Without a second thought, Song Lan kicked the two men directly into the puddle in front of them.
Li Dahai was a man of endurance; he lay prone in the puddle, clenching his teeth and refusing to utter a sound of pain. Niu Dazhi, on the other hand, was afraid of pain, and the pain in his abdomen caused him to howl in agony.
"Idiots! Every single one of them is an idiot!"
Wang Jianshe hid in the shadows, taking in the entire scene that had just unfolded. His eyes were gloomy as he silently cursed Li Dahai and his companion.
As the footsteps grew closer, Li Dahai and Niu Dazhi hurriedly got up.
"You bitch, you kicked me! I'll never forgive you!"
Niu Dazhi made some harsh remarks to Song Lan.
Li Dahai took two steps back, widening the distance between himself and Niu Dazhi.
What do you mean by that?
Niu Dazhi was extremely dissatisfied when he discovered that Li Dahai was backing down.
"..."
Li Dahai remained silent.
"Are you going to surrender now, or do you want to suffer a little more before I subdue you?" Two petty thieves, relying on brute force, and with their eyes and lower bodies covered, are you sure you're not joking?
Although Song Lan verbally offered the two a choice, she acted without hesitation. She casually put the flashlight into her raincoat pocket and then swiftly subdued Niu Dazhi and Li Dahai.
They then used their coats to tie their hands behind their backs and bind them tightly together.
"You bitch! You better let me go right now, or my boss won't let you get away with this!"
The headscarf covering Niu Dazhi's face had slipped off. He lay on the wet cement road, looking up, and said some harsh words to Song Lan.
"So there were accomplices!"
Song Lan chuckled softly. She straightened up and was about to turn around when a sudden gust of wind came from behind her. Without turning around, she instinctively swept her leg.
A heavy object slammed to the ground, accompanied by the sound of splashing water.
Turning around, Song Lan saw the man she had swept to the ground quickly get up, holding a gleaming dagger, and attack her again.
"Brother Qiang, you have to kill that bitch! She not only kicked me, but also hit me! My whole body is in so much pain!"
Niu Dazhi let out a voice filled with grievance and tears. He tried to get up, but his hands were tied behind his back. Before he could stand up, he fell to the ground again. This happened several times, and he was unable to get up. He ended up looking like a mud monkey.
"You bitch! You bitch, you're bullying us! Waaah... We just wanted to teach you a lesson, but you kicked and hit us! You bitch, you're not a woman, you're a tomboy! No one will ever marry you!"
Niu Dazhi was not only afraid of pain, but also a crybaby. Well, he was also quite talkative. Listening to his sobbing, Li Dahai regretted associating with such a person even more. It was too embarrassing!
He tried to get up, and perhaps because of his good balance, he succeeded on his first try.
But he looked like a mud-covered monkey. He looked at Wang Jianqiang and said, "Brother Qiang, we're no match for them. Why don't we just surrender?" As long as they say they were acting under orders, they shouldn't be locked up, right?
He wants to go back to school, study hard, find a job after graduating from high school, and take care of his grandmother until her death!
"Get lost!"
Wang Jianqiang had already been beaten black and blue by Song Lan and could barely stand, but he still gripped the dagger tightly, trying to attack Song Lan.
"With this heavy rain, I'm not playing with you, you little thief!"
With her lips slightly parted, Song Lan uttered a soft sentence. The next moment, she moved like lightning, easily snatching the other party's dagger and subduing him on the ground. Then, just as she had bound Li Dahai and the other man before, she used Wang Jianshe's coat to bind his hands.
"I advise you to let me go, otherwise, sooner or later, I will take your life!"
Wang Jianshe looked up at Song Lan, his eyes filled with a sinister and fierce gaze.
"Slap! Slap!"
Song Lan raised her hand and slapped the other person twice on the back of the head, saying, "These are for your family!"
With a cold gaze, she lifted the man from the ground, then picked up Niu Dazhi, and gestured for Li Dahai to walk ahead, leading the three to the security office, saying as they walked:
"Instead of being decent human beings, you insist on becoming petty thieves. Who do you think you're doing this to? The country needs development right now. Why don't you use your energy for petty theft instead of focusing on important matters?"
What we do is none of your business!
Wang Jianqiang is a tough nut to crack; he didn't stop even after being arrested.
"That's right, my brother Qiang is absolutely right. What right does a bitch like you have to tell us what we want to do? Let me tell you, you've arrested us today, but once we're free, just wait for our revenge!"
Niu Dazhi was a fool but bold man. Feeling emboldened by Wang Jianshe, he kept babbling, "You bitch, you're no good woman. Otherwise, why would someone pay money to mess with you? If you release the three of us now and are willing to pay, we can help you find that woman and teach her a lesson!"
"You idiot, shut the hell up!"
Wang Jianqiang glared fiercely at Niu Dazhi.
"Brother Qiang, did I say something wrong?"
Niu Dazhi felt wronged.
"Sister, I call you sister not because we want to do anything to you, but because someone wanted to teach you a lesson. We...we had no choice but to do what we did tonight!"
