The Unorthodox Tomb Raider

"Why don't you guys understand?" Chen Lin stamped his foot. "It's like this, my friend just replied to me, saying he's found out where that kid is. Guess where he's from?"

"Where?"

Seeing Chen Lin's mysterious expression, the fat man in blue and the others couldn't help but feel uneasy.

"The Gu family. The Gu family that sells jewelry! You should understand now."

The fat man in blue didn't take it seriously at first. Although Guangling was a big city, he had been living there for many years and knew a thing or two about the situation. If a fight really broke out, he had someone backing him up.

So, he was just about to say that Chen Lin's nervousness was completely unnecessary; everyone has someone behind them.

But when Chen Lin said the second half of his sentence, the fat man in blue seemed to change.

"Are you telling the truth? That kid is from the Gu family?"

The fat man in blue was shocked, but also showed a hint of fear.

These powerful forces in Guangling are people like them who absolutely cannot afford to offend them. Otherwise, even if the Gu family randomly sent out a few assassins, they would be unable to handle them.

"Is the evidence conclusive? How could he prove that the kid is from the Gu family?"

The fat man in blue was still somewhat skeptical and couldn't help but ask another question.

"He said he saw that kid going in and out of the Gu family's gate many times, and he could pass through without any hindrance. So, if he's not a member of the Gu family, then who is he?"

"Besides the Gu family, has this kid been to any other places?"

"I don't know about that. You know, there aren't many places with cameras these days. This is what he recently retrieved, which is enough to explain the problem."

Chen Lin's statement prompted the fat man in blue to think.

If Fang Yun really is from the Gu family, then this fight is definitely out of the question. Not only can we not fight, but I will also have to apologize to (Qian Li Zhao) Fang Yun, otherwise I can forget about ever living in Guangling again.

But if the other party isn't like that, wouldn't my actions make me a laughingstock?

"That's not necessarily true. There are many people working in the Gu family. Besides the Gu family's internal staff, there are also quite a few other workers who can freely enter and exit the gate. You should have heard it just now, that kid claimed to be surnamed Fang, but that has nothing to do with the Gu family."

"That's right, maybe he's the bricklayer who repaired the wall for the Gu family. If we scare ourselves, we'll make a fool of ourselves."

Someone else chimed in, and suddenly everyone fell silent, unsure of the best course of action.

Chapter 556 A Trial of Adventure

"Then Manager Chen, you tell us what to do. No matter what, we need to get an explanation for this today."

The fat man in blue made his stance clear: whether he would back down or forcefully teach the other party a lesson, he had to make a decision.

Chen Lin was also in a dilemma. If he continued, he was afraid that the other party's identity was real, and he couldn't afford the consequences.

In the end, he was just a mid-level manager at a bank, while the Gu family was a real tycoon to him, not someone he could afford to offend.

If the Gu family really wanted to take away everything he had now, it would only take a word. So Chen Lin dared not gamble; it was a situation he couldn't afford to play. But if he backed down now, it would indeed be hard for others to accept.

After all, Fang Yun's unpleasant expression was still there. If he continued to be smug like that, he probably wouldn't be able to sleep well.

At this moment, Chen Lin glanced at the fat man in blue and said, "What do you suggest we do? I can't make up my mind, so just rely on your intuition."

The fat man in blue suddenly laughed.

"Manager Chen, your eyes have already betrayed your thoughts. You must also want to teach that kid a lesson right now, right?"

"If you ask me, there's no problem. If he really is from the Gu family, it doesn't really matter whether we take action or not. We just provoked him, and if he holds a grudge, none of us will escape."

"Of course, another way is to go and beg him, but ask yourselves honestly, are you willing to do that?"

"Of course, the last resort is to take drastic measures to prevent him from retaliating."

When the fat man in blue said this, everyone understood immediately. This was a classic case of "going all in" – eliminating the source of the conflict directly.

After a brief silence, no one objected to the decision; after all, this matter had been a thorn in their side for them as well.

"Well, have you two made up your minds yet? If you're not coming over soon, I'm not going to have the patience to play with you anymore."

On the other side, Fang Yun glanced at them impatiently, which only fueled the anger of the fat man in blue and his men.

"Good lad, I'm actually hoping to get rid of your Gu family members today. I've never dealt with someone like you before. Today, we brothers are going to have a good time!"

A surge of pride welled up in the blue-clad fat man's heart. After all, he had never taught someone of such status a lesson before. If he did this today, even if he couldn't say it openly, at least he would have the experience, and his mindset would be different.

"Listen to me, you lot. After you're done, clean up the scene quickly. Make sure no one sees it or leaves any evidence against you, understand?"

The fat man in blue, still feeling uneasy, gave instructions to the people next to him.

"Don't worry, brother, this isn't the first time we've done this kind of thing. We're very quick."

The fat man in blue nodded, then glanced around. This was a very dilapidated old neighborhood; forget about high-definition cameras, you'd be lucky to even have a light.

In that case, as long as no one sees it, it's basically safe. (bjbd)

"Kid, I'm giving you one last minute to say your last words."

Since they weren't going to hold back anymore, the fat man in blue had nothing to hide. If they all struck at Fang Yun with their sticks at the same time, Fang Yun would have no way to avoid it.

The children seemed to realize that something was wrong. Apart from the chubby boy who kept encouraging his father, the other two seemed frightened and their faces turned pale.

Chen Lin brought his son over and then walked away at a distance, while the chubby little boy kept making faces at Zhou Min.

"Boss, what should we do with that little girl?" someone asked.

The fat man in blue thought for a moment and said, "Originally, I didn't want to touch this little girl, after all, she and my son are classmates. But the other party is from the Gu family. If even the slightest bit of information is leaked, we will all be doomed. Do you understand what I mean?"

After the fat man in blue said that, the other two nodded. The situation was clear: they had to eliminate the threat completely.

In their eyes, the previous smugness and mockery were gone, replaced by a hint of fanaticism, and they raised the steel pipes in their hands high.

Goodbye, kid.

The fat man in blue was only halfway through his sentence, and the corners of his mouth had just turned up when he suddenly realized that he and the others couldn't move.

"How is this going?"

"Brother, what's going on? We can't move at all."

Just as they were filled with doubt and uncertainty, they noticed that Fang Yun suddenly walked over from a distance, with his other hand placed to the side.

"How does it feel to be unable to move?"

Fang Yun said calmly.

The group immediately realized that Fang Yun was behind it, and they were so frightened that they almost jumped out of their skin, asking, "Are you a human or a ghost?"

"Hmph, who I am is not important. What is important is that you may be in trouble now."

Then, Fang Yun muttered incantations again, and a surge of emotion welled up in the hearts of the group.

Chapter 557 Murder

"You guys claim to be really good at fighting, so I'll grant you one wish and add some sharpness to your bodies!"

Upon hearing Fang Yun's words, the group immediately sensed something was amiss and shouted, "What do you want to do?"

"What exactly do you want? Let us move! We'll agree to whatever you ask, please!"

Fang Yun remained unmoved by their pleading expressions. He had initially intended to show leniency, but upon discovering that these giants harbored ill intentions towards a child like Zhou Min, Fang Yun knew that these people absolutely could not be allowed to live.

They brought this on themselves, so they have no one to blame but themselves.

"Blame it on yourselves for running into me today."

Driven by Fang Yun, the steel pipes in their hands suddenly twisted and began to separate into many steel fragments, one by one.

The others thought Fang Yun was taking his anger out on the steel pipes, and they secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After all, they were just a few steel pipes; once they were gone, they were gone.

But then they discovered that the steel plates suddenly floated in mid-air, as if they were being controlled by a magnetic force.

Then, these steel plates began to fly towards the group and stick to their skin.

"What is this going to do?"

Everyone was filled with doubt.

“I will integrate these steel plates directly into your bloodstream. You can imagine a sharp knife tied to your blood vessels, which means…”

"If you dare to engage in even the slightest strenuous activity, these steel plates will directly sever your blood vessels. You can probably imagine what that will look like, right?"

Upon hearing Fang Yun's words, the group's faces turned ashen. They could never have imagined such an absurd thing, but the sensation of a sharp weapon melting into their bodies was proof of it.

It's all true.

"This, this is impossible! What... what have you done to us?!"

The feeling of watching helplessly as steel plates pierced their bodies was extremely difficult to accept; it was like watching a steel knife plunge into one's chest without any recourse.

"Great hero, we were really wrong this time. Please forgive us. We will definitely turn over a new leaf and start anew."

"Yes, right now I'm helping you to start anew, aren't I? As long as you stop being so violent, these things won't happen again."

After a while, Fang Yun stopped. These past few days had been a process of recovering from that state of stillness. The first thing he did was pat his shoulders and stomp his feet, as if these things had returned to him.

"Thank goodness, I'm still here..."

The group was somewhat incoherent. They had wanted to curse what kind of sorcery this was, but when they saw Fang Yun was still there, they were dumbfounded and quickly swallowed their words.

Afterwards, the way the group looked at Fang Yun changed. From their previous arrogance to their current cautiousness, it was a complete turnaround.
