Chapter 136: High Bounty
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Seeing this scene, Zhao Ruoshuang couldn’t help but reveal a flustered expression.
She had just experienced the pain of being kidnapped not long ago. Now that she was stuck in such a remote place again, she really could not control the panic in her heart.
Shen Shuyi’s expression did not look too good either. She instinctively held onto the seat in front of her.
Only Luo Chen’s expression remained indifferent. He did not even take those people seriously.
They were just some thugs who came to cause trouble. They could not be considered opponents.
Luo Chen was really curious about the bounty list.
Could it be that the people they sent out would be stronger each time?
…..
Even with such doubts in his heart, Luo Chen did not reveal any clues on his face. He only waited for the burly men who got out of the car to come over.
They were wearing the same black clothes, and their faces were basically covered by sunglasses and masks.
Only these people could think of wearing sunglasses in the middle of the night.
THUD!
There was a dull thud.
The leader did not hesitate and hit the window of Luo Chen’s car with a bat.
From the looks of it, this was probably not the first time he had done such a thing. It seemed that he had plenty of experience before this.
Without another word, he attacked.
“Ah!”
The sudden attack shocked the two girls.
Zhao Ruoshuang even screamed. She did not even dare to look at the fierce enemies outside.
In fact, she wouldn’t have been so afraid if it were any other time. It was just that this scene had stirred up her traumatic memories, causing her to have such an overreaction.
However, the window glass did not shatter under such a strong knock. It did not even leave a mark.
The thug outside was shocked for a moment, but he raised the baseball bat in his hand high again.
In order to prevent the two girls from being frightened again, Luo Chen did not hesitate and pushed open the car door.
His actions were too sudden. In addition, the thug did not expect the person in the car to have the guts to open the door first.
The car door opened fully, and the huge force sent the few thugs surrounding the main driver’s seat flying.
They did not even have the chance to scream. After being sent flying, they hit the wall at the side and fainted.
It happened too suddenly for them to react to what had happened.
Just then, Luo Chen got out of the car with a smile.
He was clearly a young man who did not look old and was even a little refined and gentlemanly. Furthermore, he was unarmed.
However, the group of professional thugs with baseball bats did not have the courage to step forward immediately.
“Go on. Weren’t you very impressive when you smashed the car just now?”
There was a trace of contempt in Luo Chen’s eyes. As he spoke, his gaze swept across the thugs.
No one dared to make eye contact with Luo Chen.
Their eyes emitted a kind of vigilance that came from the bottom of their hearts.
It seemed that as long as they angered this man, they would face a disaster.
There was no reason to have this feeling. It was purely an instinct that came from their heart.
Humans would always have this instinct when facing an existence that threatened their lives.
However, in most cases, such extreme situations would not happen, so this instinct had already degenerated over the long period of evolution.
However, the thugs who came to accept the mission this time could be considered professional.
Their sixth sense was also much stronger than ordinary people.
Therefore, in just one exchange, they could determine that although Luo Chen looked like an unarmed young man, he should not be easy to deal with.
“No wonder this mission was reopened. The useless bunch who accepted the mission first should have been wiped out.”
A thug gloated and even waved the baseball bat in his hand with interest.
After all, the rule in their line of work was that if the previous person or group who accepted the mission did not take the initiative to give up the mission, they would not be able to claim it.
Compared to voluntarily giving up, there were many more situations where the entire team was wiped out and hence, considered as failing the mission.
That was because if one chose to give up on a mission, one would not be allowed to accept a new mission for a long time.
If one gave up three missions in a row, they would have to participate in the inhumane assessment again.
Therefore, they would rather die than give up on a mission so easily.
“Hehe, then let’s see if we can get the mission target this time. The reward is very generous.”
The other thug’s eyes were bloodshot.
He looked at Luo Chen as if he wanted to eat him up.
“Be careful. The group that accepted the mission last time was not weak. If we lose to him, we won’t be able to face anyone when we go back.”
The other thug grinned. Although he said that, he did not take Luo Chen seriously at all.
“Sigh…”
Luo Chen sighed helplessly.
He did not remember such a scene in the original plot, but probably because too many accidents had happened recently, many details had changed.
For example, the current Luo Tianming was definitely at his wits’ end.
Only his good second uncle could do such a thing.
“Brothers, attack! Break his legs and go back to collect the bounty!”
Someone shouted.
In an instant, the thugs no longer hesitated and charged at Luo Chen.
All of them looked at Luo Chen with green eyes. As long as they could complete this mission, the generous rewards would immediately be transferred to their accounts!
At this moment, the two girls in the car could not help but worry.
The car window was covered with a one way mirror. Those outside couldn’t see the inside, but those inside could see the outside very clearly.
The two of them watched helplessly as Luo Chen was surrounded by the thugs. The well-sealed carriage isolated most of the sound, but there were still miserable screams that could be heard through the closed door.
“What should we do? Why don’t we call the police?”
Shen Shuyi was panicking. She did not expect that she would encounter such a big mess when she was just out for a meal!
“No! We can’t call the police! The company’s situation has just improved. With so many people making a fuss, if we call the police, the company will definitely be implicated!”
Zhao Ruoshuang rejected Shen Shuyi’s suggestion without thinking.
Moreover, she knew very well that if it was Luo Chen who made the decision now, he would have definitely made the same choice.
Everything was for the benefit of the company. It was absolutely impossible to make a mistake when they were in the midst of establishing the Chamber of Commerce!
“But… how can Luo Chen deal with so many thugs by himself!”
Shen Shuyi clenched her slender fingers tightly and stared at the situation outside without blinking..
