From Douluo Dalu to Queen

Chapter 339 Debt Collection

Time passed quickly and night fell quickly, but in this city that never sleeps, the lights were just coming on and the whole city was much more lively than during the day.

Thanks to the strict labor laws in Wuhun City, working from nine to five has become the norm from top to bottom. Whether it is the institutions of the Wuhun Hall or ordinary workers, most people will finish their day's work before nightfall.

Vendors of all kinds took to the streets, spontaneously occupying several pedestrian streets, selling all kinds of unique snacks and shouting to attract customers.

Not only does the Spirit Hall not stop this behavior, it also sends out some guards to maintain order. Of course, maintaining order is actually the same as taking a rest. The residents of Spirit City are of relatively high quality and there are rarely any incidents. These guards take the opportunity to eat and drink here, and their superiors will not care about this kind of thing. After all, there is no dereliction of duty.

Therefore, every night in Wuhun City would be very lively, but on this night, there were many more people who were distraught.

Qin Shouyi didn't know how he walked out of the Fighting Spirit Arena. He had almost lost his will and walked towards his home like a walking corpse.

Gone, all gone.

He had mortgaged all his savings and borrowed money to invest in it, and he could already imagine what kind of life was waiting for him next.

The Great Fighting Soul Arena is a force jointly planned by many parties. Not to mention that this is a matter of one must accept the loss if one gambles, the gamblers are not in the right at all. Even if they are in the right, it is easy for the Great Fighting Soul Arena to control them.

After a few people who were leading the commotion were beaten and thrown out, no one caused trouble anymore.

Don't be fooled by Qin Shouyi's well-dressed appearance. He is more cowardly than anyone else when it comes to such a crucial matter and dares not cause trouble.

Seeing that he had no money to pay off his debts, two men who looked like thugs soon followed him.

Being a thug in Wuhun City requires some strength. An ordinary person like Qin Shouyi certainly couldn't find him, so he habitually walked into a dark alley.

He has walked this road for many years and nothing has ever happened. After all, all corners of Wuhun City have been under the surveillance of the Wuhun City formation. Any criminal behavior will be instantly identified and transmitted to the nearby patrol communication token. The efficiency is so high that the crime rate in the entire Wuhun City is almost zero.

However, the formation has not been completed yet, and some evil forces will inevitably use this precious time to do some shameful things.
Of course, they don't have the courage to do serious things like robbery or extortion, but violent debt collection is obviously not one of them. It is natural to pay back debts, and there is no problem even if the means are a bit violent.

The two thugs looked at each other, smiled playfully, quickened their pace and followed in, quickly blocking Qin Shouyi.

"Lao Qin, I heard that you lost a lot of money. I wonder if you can still pay back our boss's money?"

Hearing this, Qin Shouyi's face froze. He turned his head with difficulty to look at the two thugs, and said with a wry smile: "Two brothers, you also know that I have been having difficulties in cash flow recently. How about giving me some more time?"

Hearing this, the two thugs' faces suddenly changed and they kicked him out.

"Ow!"

Qin Shouyi naturally had no ability to defend himself against the soul master's attack. He was kicked away and fell heavily to the ground, lying on the ground wailing.

"Stop talking nonsense. Don't think we don't know that you still owe money to other people. You must pay us back today. Otherwise, you will have to mortgage your houses to us!"

Hearing this, Qin Shouyi's face suddenly changed: "No, no, brothers, I'll go borrow money now, can I pay you back first?"

The two thugs were not relenting: "Don't try to trick me. Everyone in Wuhun City knows what kind of person you are. Would they be stupid enough to lend you money?"

"Hand over the title deed quickly, and the 100,000 gold soul coins you owe our boss will be written off!"

Although Qin Shouyi didn't have much knowledge, he knew that real estate was his foundation. If he lost his house, he would probably have to wander around in the future!
So, no matter how scared he was, he still gritted his teeth and said, "I don't have a house, and it's not the agreed repayment deadline yet. If you dare to rob me, I will report you to the police!"

The two thugs looked at each other and saw the helplessness in each other's eyes. They really had no way to deal with this deadbeat. After all, it was true that the repayment deadline had not yet arrived, and they could not openly snatch the other party's property.

But who knows how many people this bastard has borrowed money from. It’s impossible to expect him to pay it back. If I don’t seize this opportunity, he might sell the house and run away with the money in a few days!
But they are not omnipotent. If this bastard doesn't say anything, they have no other choice but to torture him into confessing.

Seeing that there was no one around, the two thugs said viciously: "You don't want to tell me, right? Beat you up!"

After saying that, the two of them surrounded Qin Shouyi and started kicking him madly.

It was naturally very easy to kill Qin Shouyi, but they had to hold back some of their strength to avoid beating the other party to death or crippling him. However, the two thugs were familiar with this kind of thing and knew how to cause greater pain while sparing the other party from getting seriously injured.

Qin Shouyi couldn't stand this kind of attack, and begged for mercy: "Oh, oh, stop hitting me, I'll tell you, I'll tell you!"

Hearing this, the two thugs stopped, but Qin Shouyi closed his mouth again and lay on the ground gasping for breath, obviously not intending to speak.

Seeing this, they knew that the dog was playing tricks on them, so they started to circle and kick again.

This time, no matter how much Qin Shouyi begged for mercy, they would not give up.

After ten minutes of violence, the two thugs were a little tired and leaned against the wall to rest. After all, controlling the force to hit someone is a technical job.

"Have you finished the fight?"

Just when the two thugs were at a loss, a pleasant female voice suddenly appeared above their heads.

The two thugs looked in the direction of the sound and saw a gorgeously dressed girl sitting on the roof, crossing her legs and watching the scene with interest.

The two thugs were shocked. With their Soul Sect's strength, there was no gap at all, which only meant that the person coming was stronger than them!

Leng Xiyao looked at the two frightened thugs and suddenly felt bored. She jumped down from the four-story building and landed steadily on the ground.

This simple revelation made the two thugs even more scared. There were many hidden dragons and crouching tigers in Wuhun City. A little Loli of six or seven years old could be a formidable master, not to mention Leng Xiyao, whose appearance showed that she was not in the same class as them.

"May I ask who you are?" the two thugs asked timidly.
