Chapter 479 - An Old Friend (1/2)
Inside the slums of Chengbei colony.
A female figure was seen dragging a garbage truck in a narrow alley.
Even though it was a hot summer day, the girl still wrapped herself in a long sleeves cloth and did not expose any inch of her skin. One of her legs was fixed on a cheap metallic prosthetic.
She flipped the garbage truck over, and a decaying body fell out from it. The girl was not startled by it. In fact, she was a little intrigued by what she had just found.
She searched through the body quickly. Unfortunately, there was nothing valuable found on it. Her excitement immediately vanished, and she continued to pillage through the alley impa.s.sively.
No matter how many times the streets were being cleaned up, it could not rid itself of the rotten odor that had permeated into every corner of the slums.
Two guys paced wobbly toward the girl from the other end of the alley. The girl hastily looked down and avoided eye contact.
The two did not plan to let her loose easily. They cornered the girl quickly. One of them s.n.a.t.c.hed her hat away rudely.
There was a pretty face hidden underneath the hat.
“Haha. Just like I told you. One h.e.l.la good looking girl!”
“Too bad she is a cripple!”
“I don’t mind as long as other parts of her are still intact, hehe!” The guy spoke vulgarly and reached in to grab the girl’s chest.
The girl took out a blade and bellowed, “Leave me alone!”
“Look at that! A pepper! Just the type I love!”
“You wish to have another leg broken? I can help you with that!”
The two ruffians closed in and were not deterred by the lady’s weapon.
The girl panicked but she pretended to be ruthless.
“Let me warn you. The mayor of Fengli colony is my cla.s.smate. He is very powerful… He is… He is an E-tier apt.i.tude user! Don’t you dare touch me!”
The two ruffians hesitated and stopped moving. But soon, one of them sneered, “If your friend is a mayor, then why are you picking up garbage here?”
The other guy also relaxed and mocked, “Cla.s.smate? Is he in the same cla.s.s as you during primary school? Who would remember a cripple like you after he has awakened? Stop making up connections that you don’t actually have!”
The girl was rattled after her lie was seen through. In that short instance of zoning out, one of the guys had grabbed onto her shoulder.
Her communicator was instantly smashed and she had lost the only thing that would allow her to call for help.
“Lady, be obedient. I will reward you after this!”
“We will kill you if you don’t listen to us!”
“Let me go! Scram, you two pathetic sc.u.ms!” The girl shouted angrily but she was unable to free herself from their grip.
This was when a luxury hover car stopped at the end of the alley. Then, a tall figure came flying in.
The next moment, the two ruffians were sent flying backward, smas.h.i.+ng onto a wall.
“Yang Qian!” Qin Feng was infuriated when he saw Yang Qian’s pity state.
Yang Qian was indeed Qin Feng’s cla.s.smate. Nonetheless, since Qin Feng had been reborn at the point in time after his awakening, their friends.h.i.+p in primary school went way back to his previous life.
