Tian Gang's eyes flashed with a sinister light: "Luo Xinglan won't know."
Meng Feifei immediately looked at him warily: "What do you want to do?"
At the same time, she quickly opened the chat panel in her mind and sent a message to Luo Xinglan: "[Location], someone is poaching and trying to kill me, big boss, help!"
Tian Gang drew his weapon and pressed closer, saying, "If you die, how will Luo Xinglan know?"
Meng Feifei immediately turned and ran, throwing a card behind her at the same time.
When Tian Gang saw her running, he immediately chased after her. Unexpectedly, the card turned into a pit more than three meters deep after it hit the ground, and the pit was filled with dense spikes.
If you accidentally fall in, you'll definitely get pricked like a hedgehog.
Turns out he's a master of traps.
Tian Gang had no choice but to go around her. In just a short while, Meng Feifei had run a long distance ahead and was about to disappear into the distance.
Tian Gang immediately used the Shadow Assassin's exclusive skill to conceal his figure and double his speed.
In the blink of an eye, he was behind Meng Feifei.
The dagger flashed coldly as it stabbed towards Meng Feifei's waist and abdomen.
The next moment, a robot suddenly appeared and blocked Meng Feifei's path. Tian Gang's dagger pierced the robot's hard metal and fell to the ground with a clang.
Meng Feifei turned around and saw a robot as tall as a person with the character "็" (king) on โโits head behind her. There was nothing else.
She immediately realized that the man from earlier was the Shadow Assassin! This robot had unintentionally saved her.
She quickly said "thank you" to the robot and continued running forward.
That man has already decided to kill her; she can't stay here any longer! She must get to a crowded place as soon as possible!
Tian Gang stared at the motionless robot. Was it just a coincidence?
How could it so conveniently block its attack when it was in an invisible state?
Seeing that Meng Feifei's figure was about to disappear again, he didn't have time to think about anything else and took off after her.
But then the robot caught up with them!
Tian Gang's breath hitched.
This is not a coincidence!
This robot can actually see itself!
Tian Gang felt that things were getting a bit tricky.
It is said that Luo Xinglan was a mechanical maker.
Could it be... that this is a robot created by Luo Xinglan?
So... does Luo Xinglan already know about his poaching?
As Tian Gang's heart pounded with anxiety, he heard a cold, clear voice behind him: "So, it was you who was poaching?"
Tian Gang's heart skipped a beat, and he turned around stiffly.
The newcomer leaped down from the bird's back and stared at him coldly.
Left with no other choice, he revealed himself and explained, "Boss, listen to me, this is a misunderstanding..."
Luo Xinglan interrupted him impatiently: "I just asked you, were you poaching?"
She suddenly received a message from Meng Feifei, informing her that someone was poaching and even wanted to kill her to cover it up.
Unfortunately, she was still some distance away and couldn't get here in a short time, so they had to send the closest person, number 2, to check on the situation first.
Although No. 2 cannot see Tian Gang in his stealth state, it is naturally exceptionally sensitive to metal. As a shadow assassin, Tian Gang's weapon is a dagger made of metal.
That is why No. 2 is naturally a counter to the Shadow Assassin.
When she arrived, her keen hearing allowed her to pinpoint Tian Gang's location.
Therefore, whether he is invisible or not, it has no effect on her.
Her only anger was that this person was poaching!
She brought them to the island so they could collect wood, and she made it clear that their only right was to cut down trees, not to hunt the island's wildlife.
But this person still knowingly committed the crime!
Tian Gang smiled ingratiatingly: "Boss, listen to me, this really is just a misunderstanding! I didn't mean to poach. That wild boar was seriously injured, and I figured it wouldn't survive anyway, so I thought I might as well catch it and give it to you... Yes, I wanted to give it to you!"
Luo Xinglan didn't want to waste words with him, so she had Number 2 restrain him and dragged him to an open space on the island.
She planned to "make an example of someone."
There must be quite a few people like Tian Gang who have wicked thoughts, and she must make them give up those ideas.
The crowd quickly gathered around.
"What happened?"
"Wait, why did they arrest someone?"
"What is it? My time is precious, and I still need to cut down trees."
Luo Xinglan pointed at Tian Gang: "I'll take up a little of your time, but I'll give you the time you need later. Before you entered the island, I explicitly forbade you from poaching the wild animals on the island. This person knowingly violated the rules and showed no sense of contract. I will cripple his hands and permanently ban him from entering Peach Blossom Island as a warning to others."
Tian Gang hurriedly defended himself: "I didn't poach! I've said before that it was just a misunderstanding! Please believe me!"
The crowd began to whisper among themselves.
"He doesn't seem to be lying..."
"But there's no need for the big boss to frame him, is there?"
"If you ask me, even if he really did poach, Luo Xinglan doesn't have the right to cripple his hands, does she?"
The person who said this was a short-haired man, whom Luo Xinglan glanced at indifferently.
She looked at the short-haired man: "Do you think my punishment is too harsh? Why should I be lenient with someone who has harmed my interests? Or are you so magnanimous that you can choose to forgive others after they have hurt you?"
The short-haired man was speechless under her questioning, finally muttering softly, "But he said it was all a misunderstanding..."
"No, I can prove this is not a misunderstanding!" Meng Feifei stepped forward from the crowd. "I saw him hunting wild boars on the island with my own eyes. I witnessed his plot and he even tried to kill me to silence me."
Short-haired man: "Who knows if you're telling the truth or not..."
Meng Feifei said urgently, "Everything I said is true! I have no reason to lie like this!"
The short-haired man glanced at Luo Xinglan: "Even if he really poached, just make him hand over what he stole. Why cripple his hands? That's too cruel..."
His words caused a stir among the crowd.
"Yes, this punishment is a bit too harsh..."
"I thought Luo Xinglan was a very magnanimous person, but I didn't expect her to be so petty. The island is so big, with so many wild animals. What's wrong with letting a few be hunted? How much loss could she possibly suffer?"
"You can't say that. The boss has already been very kind by letting us come to the island to cut down trees. Why are you pushing your luck and poaching?"
Seeing that everyone had different opinions about her actions, Luo Xinglan simply asked, "Since you think my punishment is too harsh, then how about this: I'll just kick Tian Gang off the island. As for you, you can leave with me too. I can't guarantee that no one will continue poaching, so let's treat everyone equally and kick you all off the island. That way, there will be absolutely no more poaching."
She wanted to see if those people could still utter her heartless words with a high-sounding air when their own interests were harmed.
