Chapter 24 Chapter 24 The tool man brought two younger brothers and...
The tool man, along with his two younger brothers, led Ren Xiaoyue to the room where the cleaning staff kept their tools. He looked at the helpless Ren Xiaoyue and gave her a vengeful smile with a distorted expression.
"You want to die if you go against our boss!" said one of the younger brothers brought by the tool man. "No one will come here for at least half an hour. Have you thought about your last words?"
Another little brother laughed obscenely: "I haven't tasted a woman like this yet!"
The tool man was touched by what the younger brother said and started laughing too. He said arrogantly: "You got away last time, you won't be so lucky this time!"
Ren Xiaoyue didn't say anything, just frowned.
How come this cannon fodder can only say these few words? Ren Xiaoyue thought so, pretending to be undefeated and said fiercely: "If I can run the first time, I can run the second time. You better think clearly before you do anything."
The tool villains laughed together. They laughed and explained, like every villain who would explain to others what they had done, that their power limiters had been interfered with and they were able to use their powers.
Then, they rushed towards Ren Xiaoyue from different directions, wanting to teach this disobedient woman a lesson.
It's very tiring to act with this bunch of rookies for half an hour. I hope Su Jin can come soon. Ren Xiaoyue dodged Brother No. 1 by leaning sideways and kicked Brother No. 2.
There was a ping-pong sound in the room.
-
The stone also made a ping-pong sound under Su Jin's hands holding the carving knife.
She was carving the stone in her hand into the shape of the drawing. This was the labor reform that the prisoners had to do every day.
Su Jin is nearly 1.85 meters tall, which is a relatively eye-catching height among men. It didn't take Kevin much effort to find Su Jin.
While the prison guard was not paying attention, Kevin moved next to Su Jin.
Kevin came close to Su Jin and whispered, "The screw named Molly was blocked by the big guy and his men."
Su Jin was unmoved. The stone in her hand had already been carved into a rough shape. "Are you addicted to saving people? Why are you telling me this? You should tell them."
Su Jin raised his chin towards the prison guard who had his back to them.
Kevin said, "You don't know this. Molly had offended a supervisor named Daphne before. They won't help her."
"Aren't you going by yourself?" Molly asked again.
"I would have left long ago if I could," Kevin spread his hands, "I was also given special attention."
Su Jin didn't stop what he was doing, and asked three questions in a row: "Where? When? What happened?"
"The tool room on the south corner, just before we came here, should be blocked now," Kavan said, "This screw stopped you from fighting with the big guy, so the big guy held a grudge against her. Later, she ruined the big guy's plans several times, and the big guy wanted to teach her a lesson a long time ago."
Su Jin stopped talking. While she was carving in silence, Kevin glanced at the prison guard who was about to turn back and took the opportunity to slip back to his original position.
Su Jin remembered this Molly.
She was not a person who would remember many people, and Molly was one of the few who left a trace in her memory.
This Molly has an unseemly sense of justice and a naive and clear stupidity. To her, it seems that everyone will abide by the rules and justice will always be upheld.
The world is not that simple. This is what Su Jin's life experiences from childhood to adulthood told her.
Given her current situation, perhaps she should pretend that she didn't hear about it, or perhaps Kevin, who was always talking nonsense, was just testing her, and Molly was not surrounded.
As Su Jin pondered, the stone in his hand gradually changed shape.
She remembered the time when Molly blocked Pantheon for her. In fact, even if Molly didn't take action, she had other ways to avoid Pantheon.
but……
Su Jin closed her eyes, put down the tools in her hands, bent down, holding her stomach, and walked towards the prison police anxiously.
Just consider it as repaying Molly for her help that time.
Kevin, who was not far away, watched Su Jin pretend to have a stomachache and leave the room. He turned the carving knife in his hand and smiled triumphantly. He was halfway laughing when there was a sudden noise behind him.
"What did you just say to Sophia?"
The carving knife in Kevin's hand was unstable and fell to the ground, almost cutting Kevin's hand. He turned around and said to Aster with a playful smile: "Sir, I didn't say anything!"
As he spoke, Kevin bent down and prepared to pick up the carving knife. Before he touched the handle, a thick-soled shoe stepped on the handle. Kevin looked up and saw Aster's forced smile.
"Sir, I told you, but you don't believe it." Kevin said flatteringly.
Aster, who had dealt with Kevin many times, was no longer fooled by his seemingly flattering tactics. Aster said, "You tell me, I will judge for myself."
"Okay, okay," Calvin stood up and pretended to be helpless. "I told Sophia that Chief Molly might have been taken to the tool room at the south corner."
Asthe frowned at this. She asked Kevin a few simple questions, and Kevin answered them one by one, but his answers were vague. Calvin's ambiguous answer made Asthen unable to be sure whether it was a lie or not.
"Here you go." After asking the question, Asther helped Kevin pick up the carving knife and turned away.
Kevin kept watching Asther walk over to the other prison guards and talk to them, saw Asther's position being replaced by another prison guard, and saw Asther go out through the main gate.
"It went smoother than I thought." Kevin muttered.

When Ren Xiaoyue heard the footsteps coming from a distance, she had been fighting with the tool man for a long time. As the footsteps approached, she followed the tool man's force and was knocked down by his punch.
Ren Xiaoyue bumped into the iron frame behind her, half-closing her eyes, looking as if she couldn't recover. The tools did not dare to move forward for a while.
The reason is simple: this woman is just too hard. When they hit her, she felt as if she was hitting not a person, but a piece of iron.
And for some reason, the more they fought, the more frightened they felt, as if they had been taught a lesson by the person in front of them a long time ago.
"Go ahead, what are you afraid of?! Isn't she just a level 3 psychic?" Pantheon yelled at his little brother.
The two younger brothers looked at each other and rushed forward together. When they were about to hold down Ren Xiaoyue's left and right hands, the door of the tool room burst open.
The tools turned around subconsciously, and Ren Xiaoyue seized the opportunity to kick the little brother who disgusted her at the beginning between the legs.
Amidst the pig-slaughtering howls, Su Jin rushed in swiftly.
When Aster and Lu Ze arrived, they saw three people lying on the ground and the only two standing, Su Jin and Ren Xiaoyue. On the surface, Su Jin looked fine. There were traces of beating on Ren Xiaoyue's face.
Su Jin looked at Lu Ze and Asthe who came in one after another, revealing obvious annoyance.
Lu Ze immediately pointed at the people on the ground and said, "We didn't see you here today. There's only Molly and the three of them here."
After Lu Ze said this, Asthea also reacted and reminded: "Terens will be here in about five minutes. She should come from the east."
Su Jin nodded, thanked him, and left quickly. Lu Ze and Asthe moved to the left and right in tacit understanding, making way for her.
"Are you okay?" After Su Jin left, Asthe came over and asked with concern.
Ren Xiaoyue covered her arm and shook her head.
…
The final outcome of this incident was that Ren Xiaoyue received work injury compensation, and Pan Sen and the other two were put in solitary confinement. Because of his background, Pantheon himself did not receive severe punishment, and he lived a normal life after the confinement ended. The two younger brothers he found took most of the responsibility and were moved to an area where more dangerous prisoners were held.
Aster, who was walking with Ren Xiaoyue, saw Pantheon, who was taking a walk in the distance, giving them the middle finger, feeling disgusted and angry.
"That guy must have thought nothing would happen to him before he attacked you," Asthe said indignantly, "that's why he was so arrogant."
Ren Xiaoyue said firmly: "It doesn't matter. If he comes again, I will beat him again."
"How can the police prevent thieves?" Aster sighed worriedly.
Because of this incident, Asthe and Ren Xiaoyue's frequency of working together increased greatly, for fear that Ren Xiaoyue would be left alone and suffer.
Su Su also visited Ren Xiaoyue a few days after the attack.
She was wearing casual clothes and came to Ren Xiaoyue's dormitory door with some fruits. Ren Xiaoyue opened the door and showed a surprised expression.
"Su, why are you here?" Ren Xiaoyue said, moving aside and motioning Su Su to come in.
Su Su walked in readily and placed the fruit on Ren Xiaoyue's small round table.
"I heard that you were attacked by prisoners again, so I wanted to come and see you." Su Su said.
Ren Xiaoyue exclaimed, "Ah!" and touched her nose a little embarrassedly: "You also know that I was attacked? It's actually nothing serious."
As she spoke, Ren Xiaoyue pulled out a stool next to the table, asked Susu to sit down, and turned around to get two glasses of water.
"Well, your stories always spread quickly," Su Su said, "especially since this isn't the first time."
Ren Xiaoyue put two glasses of water on the table and laughed awkwardly: "Haha, I feel a little embarrassed...Will my nickname become a fool who was beaten twice by prisoners in the future?"
"How could that be? I think you are very brave." Su Su shook her head.
They started with this incident and talked about all sorts of things, including the recent developments in the prisoners and prisons. As they talked, the topic slowly returned to Pantheon.
"Pan Sen was sent to prison for the local gang leader. A strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake. As long as he does not provoke forces stronger than his gang, no one will deal with him." Su Su held the water cup, her tone flat, as if she had just talked about this by accident.
"What do you mean...?" Ren Xiaoyue played dumb.
Su Su sighed and looked at Ren Xiaoyue helplessly: "I just think you shouldn't go against him. We should just turn a blind eye to the prisoners' affairs."
It seems that many people have said this to her. Ren Xiaoyue understood that she should remain silent at this time, and in fact, she did so.
She was silent for a moment, then shook her head and smiled: "I know my limits."
Su Su put down the cup, stared into Ren Xiaoyue's eyes and asked, "Even if you pay an unbearable price, it's okay if your friends get hurt?"
She spoke so seriously, as if what she said would happen in the next second. Ren Xiaoyue frowned immediately after hearing this: "Someone threatened your personal safety?"
This was her first feeling? Su Su was silent, she almost couldn't control her expression. After barely hiding her twisted jealousy, Su Su said sincerely, "No, no one is threatening me. I just don't think it's necessary for those prisoners."
"Are you really okay?" Ren Xiaoyue also looked at Su Su seriously and confirmed again.
"Really not," Su Su waved her hand, half-jokingly comforting, "If they really wanted to threaten me, they wouldn't threaten me first."
"So what's your answer?" Su Su asked relentlessly.
"I can't just not do it because I'm afraid. If I'm afraid of being robbed, should I stay at home?" Ren Xiaoyue said half-jokingly.
"And it's not just the prisoners who are harassed by him." Ren Xiaoyue muttered at just the right volume.
Su Su then asked: "Even if it is a force you cannot resist?"
Ren Xiaoyue groaned and said nonchalantly, "Can't we still fight back now? I know there are many things in this world that we can't help, but there are some things I want to stick to."
"Isn't there an old saying? Don't blame the victim, blame the perpetrator."
Molly said this, as if hiding countless stories under her calm face. Su Su suddenly recalled Molly's file and felt mixed emotions. Molly's mother died because of her sense of justice, but Molly doesn't seem to have changed.
Then Susu recalled that not long ago, Molly was beaten half to death by the prisoners.
Su Su has seen people similar to Molly. People like them have one thing in common: they die very easily. To be honest, Molly is quite tenacious among this type of people.
Her mother's involvement did not make her back down, and neither did her own serious injury. She seemed to have no memory, or to put it more nicely, she was indomitable.
Su Su subconsciously compared Molly to herself and found that she could only become such a person when she was disguising herself.
"I was wrong," Su Su said, "You are a dazzling person."
Su Su spoke the second half of the sentence in a very low voice, almost like talking to herself. She murmured as if she had made some decision. Ren Xiaoyue heard the second half of Su Su's words, but she pretended to be like someone of Mo Li's level and asked curiously, "What did you say? I didn't hear it clearly."
Su Su smiled and evaded her: "Nothing, I said I should go now, I won't disturb your rest~"
Su Su stood up, and without waiting for Ren Xiaoyue to see her off, she half ran and half jumped to the door of Ren Xiaoyue's dormitory and waved goodbye to her.
The door was closed. The conversation ended perfectly. Ren Xiaoyue and Su Su's friendship has taken another step forward...
...?
Next, Susu will most likely attack Pantheon.
Ren Xiaoyue propped up her head and looked casually at the half-drunk glass of water.
The transparent glass reflected her cold eyes.
