Yama Reborn-Chapter 626 - 623: You’re Bothered, Too!
Sitting in the taxi, Zhang Linsheng felt like he was sitting on pins and needles.
He stole a moment to call home, telling Xia Xia about the situation here, and that he'd be back a bit later.
After hanging up the phone, it was clear that Zhang Linsheng was being looked at by Fox with much more friendliness.
Zhang Linsheng was somewhat puzzled: "What's up? Why do you keep looking at me?"
Fox nodded: "Did you just call your wife?"
"Mm...it was my wife."
"You're great, it shows you really care about your wife," Fox's tone carried a hint of admiration: "A man who loves his family and his wife must be a good man. So I'm increasingly curious, how did you become friends with someone like Chen Nuo."
"Chen Nuo, what about him?"
"He's a scumbag."
Alright, Zhang Linsheng shut his mouth.
On this point, what the other person said seemed not entirely unreasonable.
·
Arriving at the hospital, Zhang Linsheng paid the taxi fare, got out, and ran towards the emergency center building.
Fox was not in a hurry, leisurely walking with hands in pockets behind.
Zhang Linsheng rushed into the emergency center, asked at the nurse's station, and walked inside.
In the corridor of the emergency room, he saw Ou Xiuhua sitting on a bench.
Ou Xiuhua was standing there, tightly clutching her bag, looking anxious, occasionally stretching her neck to look inside.
"Aunt Ou!"
Zhang Linsheng shouted loudly, hurriedly walked over.
Ou Xiuhua saw Zhang Linsheng, first was shocked, then seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Lin Sheng, why are you here?"
"Little Candy is home, and I was worried about you here, so I came over to see if there's anything I can help with."
Zhang Linsheng quickly replied, then asked: "How's Uncle Hou doing?"
"He should be fine, just inside getting treated for injuries, he's hurt pretty badly."
Zhang Linsheng glanced around, on the other side of the corridor were two traffic police, surrounded by a few young men chattering about something.
Hmm...those young men, how to put it...
They didn't look like anything good.
The reason Zhang Linsheng made this judgment is because he saw a few bits of himself in these young men.
To be precise, it was a bit of his own temperament from two or three years ago.
·
Seeing Zhang Linsheng arrive, several young men quickly found their target, immediately someone strode over!
One of them, with a hairstyle obviously styled for individuality, tall and lean, came straight up to Zhang Linsheng, shouting: "You're the family of the crash driver, huh? How do you plan to settle this matter?"
Zhang Linsheng glanced at the kid, didn't respond, first pulled Ou Xiuhua behind him, then said to the group: "I'm family, I just arrived, I don't know the details yet. Let me talk to the traffic police and we'll discuss it after."
"Damn, so arrogant?!", one guy roared.
Zhang Linsheng was annoyed.
Arrogant?
Where was the arrogance?
He had spoken very reasonably, neither humble nor pushy, just common sense.
Actually, there was no arrogance at all.
But to these punks, arrogance or lack of it was entirely in their own judgment.
To them, as long as your words didn't fit their liking, you were arrogant.
Put frankly, it was a case of "Those who follow me thrive, those against me perish."
If they don't like you, even if you're kneeling before them, you'd still be seen as arrogant.
Because they're just cocky...
To fools at this age, it's largely such a twisted worldview.
Logic? They have none, they're just a bunch of idiots.
Zhang Linsheng understood this very well—because he used to be just such an idiot.
Seeing that things might escalate, the traffic police immediately came over to separate the two sides.
"Stop making a scene! This is a hospital! If there's any issue, follow the procedure! Don't cause trouble here!"
Seeing one fool opposite, unaware of the situation, glaring as if he wanted to argue with the traffic police.
Fortunately, a companion beside him pulled him aside.
"Earlier we saw only one woman in the crash driver's family, we wouldn't bully women. Now that a man who can speak up from your side is here, let's discuss!
My friend got hit and he's still being treated! You'll definitely have to pay!"
As the lean guy spoke, his hand was almost pointing at Zhang Linsheng's nose.
From this angle, this distance, Zhang Linsheng knew very well that he could easily grab that finger.
Then with a little twist, he could break it!
Then the other would be in pain, bending down—the normal reaction.
Then he could follow up with a kick to the lower abdomen...
And this person could just lay there motionless.
However...
Looking at the nearby traffic police, Zhang Linsheng took a breath, and calmly said: "Stop calling a crash driver. Don't think I don't know the law, responsibility needs to be determined by the traffic police and a report issued.
No one's responsibility has been decided yet, why are we being blamed as crash drivers?"
Seeing Zhang Linsheng remain firm, the young people on the other side were clearly about to get arrogant again.
After the traffic police scolded them a few times, one traffic policeman pulled Zhang Linsheng to the side, and exchanged information.
The matter...
Was really simple!
The other side was just shifting blame, all the talk about crash drivers, nonsense.
The crash process was very simple, traffic police arrived at the scene, sent the injured to the hospital, and initial assessment indicated ninety-nine percent of the responsibility lay with the other side.
At the time of the incident, Hou Changwei was driving the company's van transporting goods.
At an intersection, Hou Changwei's vehicle was waiting for the left-turn green light, parked in the middle of the road at the left-turn waiting zone.
This waiting zone protruded into the intersection, just across a bit in the center.
And the other party, was...
A bunch of idiots!
This was the evaluation Zhang Linsheng made in his mind.
A bunch of street punks with nothing better to do.
·
These people can't even be called real second-generation rich.
Because they weren't bombing streets with sports cars—they couldn't afford them.
In this era, Jinling had a group of idiots emerge.
They liked to play with cars, pursue individuality.
But actually, their families weren't those with real wealth that could afford sports cars to bomb streets.
These guys' approach, now seems quite amusing.
They liked to buy a model of car from Neon Country, called Mazda.
Then take this Mazda sedan to small repair shops for illegal modifications.
Of course, spending big on real car modifications, they couldn't afford either.
Like swapping a badass engine, not within their means.
But to show off...
For these people, what did they think was the ultimate show-off?
Sound!
The louder the noise, the more impressive they think it is.
So, they modify the exhaust, and once a car's exhaust is modified, it roars when it runs.
Then, they add xenon lights, a spoiler, change the tires, or whatever...
To put it bluntly, it's just for show.
As for performance, there's nothing to say, really.
But it looks cool!
The noise has to be loud! The lights have to be flashy!
To these people, they feel they are incredibly awesome.
Then such a group of people gather together and go around causing trouble.
Blasting down the streets, breaking traffic laws, disturbing the public.
And they love to provoke trouble.
Their favorite thing to do is drive around in packs on the road.
When they encounter a luxury car passing by, an expensive car.
They stick to it! 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
Then in packs, they surround the car.
In front, behind, to the left, and to the right.
Trapping the car in the middle.
It's just to provoke!
The message is: What's so great about driving an expensive car! We're just more badass and arrogant than you are!
Zhang Linsheng's opinion of people like this is:
They have foolish minds.
They have foolish aesthetics.
·
Tonight's incident with Hou Changwei obviously wasn't intentionally provoked by this gang.
Hou Changwei was just driving a delivery van from his workplace, which these people clearly have no interest in, so they wouldn't provoke him.
However, this gang is used to reckless driving, and that night at the intersection, Hou Changwei was parked there waiting properly in the waiting area according to traffic rules, waiting for the left turn green light.
A modified Mazda came rushing from the side.
It was clear the other party had run a red light.
Then it hit the side of Old Hou's van.
The speed was somewhat fast, but fortunately, the driver idiot realized he ran a red light, slammed on the brakes, and the car was already braking.
It hit due to inertia.
Old Hou's van was hit in the middle, and the car plunged forward.
The impact zone wasn't the driver's seat, but after the van was hit, it crashed into the post on the traffic island.
Old Hou was injured.
And the guy driving the Mazda was hurt even worse. He's in the hospital for emergency care as well.
·
Are they in the right?
Of course not, not even a little bit.
But people like these are not reasonable.
Even if they're in the wrong, they act arrogant, shout, and act tough.
To them, behaving like this is just natural.
If you don't go along with them, it's because you are "too arrogant."
·
After talking with the traffic police, Zhang Linsheng understood what had happened and nodded.
The traffic officer told Zhang Linsheng: "The accident report, come to the traffic department to sign and collect it tomorrow. Our process ends here.
Both parties should have insurance, and the compensation will follow through the insurance company.
But I see, young man, that this might be a troublesome matter for you."
Zhang Linsheng understood the traffic officer's implication.
The people opposite clearly were not going to be reasonable.
Even if the traffic report puts all the responsibility on them.
They would still continue to deny it.
Not only would they refuse to compensate, but they might also falsely accuse and demand compensation from Hou Changwei.
As long as the traffic officers are present, they might not dare to act rashly.
But once the traffic officers leave?
The officers can't stay at the hospital indefinitely, right?
Once they're gone, they'll certainly cause trouble for the family.
Or, even if they leave the hospital, they might find their way to their home to cause trouble.
The police can't be with you 24/7, right?
What reason is there to talk to such people?
To put it bluntly, they are just a bunch of trash.
Ever since the last two years, after Zhang Linsheng followed Chen Nuo onto the right path...
He has become increasingly grateful to Chen Nuo.
Because it was only after getting on the right path that he realized how precious it all is.
And he increasingly realized how low Brother Haonan was from his past, idling and not doing anything serious.
Back at school, those few we called the few big brothers of Tongluo Bay with me.
Frankly, none of them are doing well now.
Two of them, naturally couldn't go to college after graduation, just wandered around society.
Getting into fights, drinking, extorting small sums of money, and whatnot.
Getting a decent job, doing hard work, they would think it's beneath them. It doesn't match their badass personality.
But with no ability, they can only mess around. Doing a few mischievous things.
Currently, they are still doing small disturbances because they aren't that bold yet.
But in the long run, they'll eventually end up either going in or passing away.
And the trouble ahead is.
Zhang Linsheng knew that the guys opposite are just this type of trashy people.
But they are somewhat stronger than the small-time delinquents he met at school because their families have a bit of money—maybe even a little bit of power.
Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to afford to play with modified cars—even if they're just cheap, showy items.
But it's still better than regular folks.
·
The traffic officer in front of him seems like a good person, giving Zhang Linsheng a reminder.
Zhang Linsheng nodded, indicating he understood.
"On your side, we asked the doctor, the injuries aren't serious. Once treated, you should be able to go home. If you need to be hospitalized, you should be prepared for a dispute with the other side on medical expenses compensation.
If it doesn't work out, you might have to go the legal route, to court."
The traffic officer sighed: "These people are like annoying leeches. And I think they might also make trouble for you."
While speaking, the officer looked seriously at Zhang Linsheng: "I see you're young, full of vigor. Don't be impulsive when something happens, call the police when necessary! Whatever you do, don't let your hot-bloodedness get the best of you and act recklessly."
Zhang Linsheng knew the officer meant well, but there was no need to say more, so he expressed his gratitude on the spot, took the officer's phone number, and said he would go to the traffic department tomorrow to handle the procedures.
·
The two traffic officers went over to reprimand those punks again.
In normal circumstances, the offending driver would be that guy who was driving the Mazda, who is inside being attended to for his injuries.
But the guy's injured, so they can't take him away now.
Suddenly, Zhang Linsheng asked: "What about the other party's family? The person is injured, and you can't just let a few scummy friends hang around and cause even more trouble, right?"
The traffic officer gave Zhang Linsheng a glance: "The other party's family has already been notified. Their parents are businesspeople, currently on a business trip out of town, but they should be heading back as soon as possible."
Zhang Linsheng nodded, "Alright, I'll wait until the family arrives to talk. Right now, these people aren't family; they're outsiders. I have nothing to discuss with them."
The traffic police smiled, "That's the right thing to do."
·
Zhang Linsheng returned to Ou Xiuhua's side, gently patting her hand, and spoke softly, "Aunt, it's alright, I'm here.
As long as Uncle Hou's health is fine, everything else is trivial.
We don't cause trouble, but we're not afraid of it either."
Ou Xiuhua spoke softly, "Please, don't cause any trouble."
Zhang Linsheng smiled without saying anything.
Clearly, Little Candy's judgment was spot on. Ou Xiuhua's nature was on the softer side. In situations like this, without someone strong from the family stepping in,
given Ou Xiuhua's personality, she would definitely be bullied to death.
·
With the traffic police here, the people across the street dared not act recklessly.
Those few guys clearly wanted to come over and provoke, but with the traffic police stopping them, they dared not make a big move.
Someone even challenged Zhang Linsheng, "Let's go talk outside!"
In Jinling, saying this meant: have a fight outside! Or, go outside, and I'll teach you a lesson!
Honestly speaking.
Zhang Linsheng was more than willing!
He had nothing better to do, beat up some people, vent a little, and do some good for society; it wasn't bad at all.
But the traffic police were here.
The trouble was right here.
The fools across the street thought the traffic police were protecting Zhang Linsheng, or else they would surely use force to make him submit.
In actuality, it was the traffic police protecting those fools.
Without the police, Zhang Linsheng could send all these people to the emergency room tonight.
Zhang Linsheng stayed with Ou Xiuhua for a while, then suddenly had a thought.
Huh?
He almost forgot something!
What about that girl named Fox?
Why didn't she come in after getting out of the car?
Standing up, Zhang Linsheng started looking around.
Where is she?
A living, breathing person that big?
Thinking for a moment, Zhang Linsheng immediately began to walk out to search for her.
He stood at the restroom door for a while, asked a cleaning lady who came out, and found out there was no one in the women's restroom.
Then Zhang Linsheng started looking outside the emergency center lobby.
This action was noticed by a few guys across the street; sneakily, three or four slipped out.
·
Outside the lobby, Zhang Linsheng looked around and spotted Fox.
Fox was sitting by the flower bed, holding a box of yogurt, sipping through a straw leisurely.
As relaxed as could be.
Zhang Linsheng walked over and asked, "Why didn't you go inside?"
"I don't know Chen Nuo's mom. It's pointless to go in,"
Fox said coolly, "But I eavesdropped on your conversation with the police, so I'm clear on the situation."
How did you eavesdrop?
Zhang Linsheng was stunned.
He was sure no one was around when he talked to the police.
"If it's within twenty meters, I can hear any sound I want to," Fox shook her head and glanced at Zhang Linsheng, "Your abilities are still weak, just at an entry-level for an Ability User. When your abilities improve, you'll understand."
She looked at Zhang Linsheng, "How do you plan to deal with these troubles?"
Zhang Linsheng thought for a moment, "With the police here, I can't do anything. When the police are gone, they'll surely come looking for trouble, then it'll be one step at a time."
Little Fox looked somewhat uninterested, thought for a moment, "Or, just kill them all."
Zhang Linsheng: "...????"
How old are you, little girl!
Is this something your age should say?!
"What's the problem?" Fox said coldly, "I know exactly what kind of people they are; I've seen a lot of people like this.
These people, living in this world, won't add any value.
Besides making trouble and garbage, and wasting food, these people have no value, just a bunch of rubbish.
Kill them all, what's the problem?"
My goodness, really, goodness.
Zhang Linsheng was sweating!
This is a living Yama!
Plus, Zhang Linsheng was sure this little girl wasn't joking!
When she says to kill, she really would!
At this time, he remembered Little Candy's reminder before going out: [don't draw blood].
This little fox has definitely seen blood!
Sure has!
"No way!!"
Zhang Linsheng was anxious, "So many people, all killed?! So many lives, that's a huge case!
Goodness!
When the police investigate the murder case, the first thing is to check relationships and past grudges.
Investigate, and who was the last one to have a grudge with these people before they died?
This car accident!
Then, in this car accident, who were the enemies?
Us!
Don't drag Aunt Ou's family into this! That's putting them in trouble!
And don't implicate me! I was the one who had a conflict with them just now."
Fox glanced at Zhang Linsheng, "Alright then, I'll think of another idea."
Zhang Linsheng looked at Fox, "Maybe you should stay here and not go inside, or…just go home. I can handle things here."
With that, Zhang Linsheng didn't want to deal with this intimidating little girl anymore.
Too scary, simply too scary!
He walked to the entrance of the lobby, stood behind a pillar, and took out his phone to make a call.
Actually, there were many options.
In Jinling City, can a bunch of kids really bully him?
Call Brother Lei, or call Luo Qing. They could both handle this situation.
But just as he took out his phone and hadn't even turned it on, he heard a sudden gust of wind behind him.
He tilted his head and dodged a punch, took a step back, and saw four guys standing in front of him.
Each had a look on their face like [We're here to act tough and bully people].
"Kid, aren't you cocky? Let's have a talk!"
One guy across from him sneered with his fist clenched.
To them, bullying others was their greatest sense of worth.
Zhang Linsheng thought for a moment, alright then.
Can't hit too hard, but a little lesson is fine; later, he could say it was self-defense.
Hmm, can't hit too hard.
"Let's go to the parking lot," Zhang Linsheng said coldly. "The police are in the corridor. You don't want to start a fight here and have the police see it, do you?"
The guys across the way laughed maliciously, then followed Zhang Linsheng toward the far end of the hall.
As they headed to the parking lot, someone couldn't resist trying to push Zhang Linsheng around.
Just a bunch of punk kids eager to bully someone, acting like they couldn't wait another second.
Zhang Linsheng sidestepped their shoves and continued on toward the parking lot.
Just as he passed a flower bed, he glanced at Fox.
Trouble!
The little girl's eyes were sparkling!
Watching as Fox happily bounced over!
Oh crap!
There's going to be a bloodbath here today!
Zhang Linsheng's vision went dark as he braced himself!
"Wow! A cute little foreign chick!"
One of the punks suddenly lit up with excitement.
Another immediately chimed in, "Wow, what a hot foreign babe!"
"Can you speak Huaxian?"
One of them couldn't resist moving in closer.
Zhang Linsheng felt Fox shoot a glance his way.
The look was cold and indifferent.
Yet, Zhang Linsheng instantly understood it.
The meaning of that look was: Get out of the way!
·
Instinctively, Zhang Linsheng took a step back.
He took that step carefully and deliberately.
Then he heard a blood-curdling scream.
The little girl swung her arm, and the guy who called her "foreign babe" went flying horizontally into the flower bed!
She didn't wait for them to react; she was already stepping on the foot of the guy who called her a "cute little foreign chick"!
A scream followed as he jumped up and quickly squatted down.
The little girl kicked one more guy in the groin, and grabbed another's wrist, shaking him until he collapsed to the ground, wailing.
"I didn't make anyone bleed. Plus, no bones are broken," Fox said seriously. "And I just came up with an idea."
Then Fox took a deep breath and screamed in the direction of the hall.
"Help!! Somebody's sexually assaulting me!!!!"
·
Actually, a lot of people don't realize one thing: Traffic cops are also police officers.
Traffic cops don't only deal with traffic.
As police officers, no matter what kind of police you are, as long as you're wearing a uniform, if a crime occurs nearby, you have an obligation to handle it.
From this perspective, traffic cops also deal with things beyond traffic incidents.
So Fox's scream was loud enough for the traffic cops inside to hear.
They rushed out.
And then...
It turned into a case.
·
Fox, facing the arrival of the traffic cops, quickly squatted down on the ground, holding her head and started to wail.
Zhang Linsheng stood to the side, shivering as he watched.
Those acting skills...
They must be cut from the same mold as Chen Nuo's?!
Facing the traffic cops' inquiries, Fox quickly explained the situation.
"I was sexually harassed by these guys! They were trying to mess with me and drag me away!"
And then, the traffic cops were dumbfounded!!
This was a huge problem!
Why?
Just look at this little girl in front of them!
·
Female!!
Underage!!!
Foreign friend!!!
·
In the words of the future, Fox at this moment was fully buffed!!
·
Luckily, they were right at the hospital.
The four punks were quickly carried into the emergency room.
Not far, just a few steps away, it was super convenient.
Then the traffic cops began questioning Fox.
Fox insisted: I was just walking to the hospital, and they came up and tried to harass me!
What else?
Nothing else, I'm a foreigner, my Huaxia language isn't very fluent.
It's too complicated for me to understand.
All I know is they were messing with me, saying vulgar things and trying to grab me.
·
Question: Why are you at the hospital so late?
Fox said: I caught a cold, can't I come to see a doctor in the middle of the night?
·
Question: You said they harassed you, so why are they the ones on the ground?
Fox said: Even though I'm young, I've trained in self-defense. My mom served in the military in Argentina, she's been a cop! I've been learning self-defense since I was young, so I dared to come all the way to Huaxia to study.
Is practicing self-defense illegal?
·
Another question: This Zhang Linsheng next to you, didn't he do anything? What's his relationship with you? He...
Fox said: I don't know this person.
Yes, I don't know him! Completely don't know him! No relation!
·
Yet another question: Even if it was harassment, you hit them pretty hard...
Fox said: If I hit them too hard, they can sue me for compensation later. I'm willing to cover medical expenses within my responsibility, oh right, I'd like to contact my embassy first, I need legal aid.
·
Just ask, as an officer handling such a situation.
Female!
Underage!
Foreign friend!
And she insisted on contacting her embassy for legal aid...
Is your head spinning?
You're panicking and spinning too!
