Sequence Beyond: My Wife is a Mysterious Boss

Chapter 30: I just made something up out of thin air, and you managed to make it all believable?

The mad dog, enraged, laughed instead.

He licked his chapped lips, his eyes almost overflowing with cruelty.

This arrogant brat actually offered himself up on our doorstep?

"Want to learn boxing? Great! You've got guts!"

The mad dog stepped forward, and the nauseating stench of blood almost touched Lin Bai's face.

"I'm the head instructor here. Since you want to learn, I'll personally teach you!"

He emphasized the word "personally".

The surrounding henchmen let out a burst of malicious laughter.

Everyone knows that a mad dog's "teaching" can really kill people.

That kid who wanted to learn boxing from Mad Dog last week is still lying in the mass grave outside the city.

I heard that all the bones in his body were broken apart like building blocks.

"Are you sure you want to learn from me?" Mad Dog stared at Lin Bai as if he were looking at a walking corpse.

"Or should I have him learn from me?" Mad Dog glanced at the black-robed man behind Lin Bai.

"Of course, it's me." Lin Bai smiled even more brightly, as if he hadn't noticed the murderous intent in the other person's words at all.

"If we let him go up, I'm afraid you won't make it off the stage alive..."

"Oh, right..."

Lin Bai changed the subject, turned to the side, and revealed the silent Aya behind him.

"Let me introduce you, this is my bodyguard, Aya."

"I'm physically weak and can't take a beating, and my family doesn't feel comfortable letting me wander around alone."

Lin Bai reached out and gently straightened the collar of A-Ya's black robe, his movements soft, but his tone became low and drawn out:

"In your outer city, without a loyal, vicious dog to protect you, you can't sleep at night. Don't you agree?"

Upon hearing this, the mad dog's pupils constricted sharply.

Family members? Bodyguards? Outer city?

Furthermore, Lin Bai's composure even in the face of death threats...

Could this kid be the son of some important figure in the inner city, out here to experience life?

Mad Dog glanced at the big guy who was completely wrapped in a black robe.

Although you can't see their faces clearly, the oppressive, lifeless aura they exuded was something that ordinary thugs could never possess.

If they're from the inner city... killing them would cause big trouble.

The mad dog's eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he became somewhat hesitant.

But soon, he saw the mocking smile on Lin Bai's lips.

That look, as if he were looking at a clown, instantly ignited the powder keg of "jealousy" and "inferiority" in his heart.

Screw the big shot!

Once you step into the ring, fists and feet have no eyes.

Even if you break both his legs, it'll be considered a "teaching accident." As long as you don't kill him, what can the lords of the inner city do?

"Trying to scare me?" Mad Dog scoffed, concealing a hint of fear in his heart.

"Alright, you want to learn boxing, right? Come on, get on top!"

After saying that, Mad Dog shoved Lin Bai hard on the shoulder and strode onto the ring behind Lin Bai.

Lin Bai was knocked back half a step, rubbed his shoulder, but the smile on his face did not diminish at all.

The fish has taken the bait.

At this moment, the woman in the corner of the hall who had been expressionlessly wiping her dagger—"Black Mamba"—was also attracted by the commotion and casually walked over.

But as soon as she got close, she suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Black Mamba narrowed his eyes, his fingertips lightly tracing the blade, his gaze fixed on Aya's back.

strangeness.

The "bodyguard's" chest remained flat.

He... seemed not to be breathing.

......

On the ring, Mad Dog is warming up.

This guy was shirtless, and every muscle was twitching; it was quite intimidating.

He threw a jab into the air with a whooshing sound while grinning at Lin Bai below the stage.

"Come on up, young master!"

The mad dog spat out the cigarette butt from its mouth and crushed it with the sole of its foot, as if it were crushing Lin Bai's bones.

"Don't be afraid, I'll be very 'gentle'. At most, I'll just take your bones apart and put them back together like building blocks. I have experience with that."

The thugs in the audience instantly erupted in cheers, whistling deafeningly.

"Boss, go easy on him! Don't ruin his face. He relies on that face to make a living among the rich women in the inner city!"

"Hahaha, the betting's open! Let's bet on how long this delicate kid can last!"

"Three seconds! No more than that! Even a second longer would be disrespectful to Mad Dog Bro!"

Amidst the uproar and commotion of those who love a good show, Lin Bai calmly dusted off his sleeves and prepared to step onto the stage.

"etc."

A cold voice suddenly rang out, interrupting everyone.

Black Mamba's short knife had been drawn at some point, its tip pointing directly at Aya behind Lin Bai.

"Are you... alive?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Bai's heart skipped a beat.

Although they gave Ah-Ya colored contact lenses and dressed him in a black robe to cover his body, the fact that he "lacks physiological functions" is indeed a major flaw.

"What's wrong?" Iron Fist frowned in the distance, chewing his lollipop loudly, looking impatient.

"He wasn't breathing." Black Mamba's tone was flat, as if he were stating an autopsy report.

"I've been staring at him for a while now, and his chest isn't rising or falling at all. Only the dead don't need to breathe."

The air suddenly became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.

The thugs around him instinctively took a step back, their hands reaching for the weapon at their waists.

A person who isn't breathing? That's too eerie.

The mad dog on the ring stopped moving, its eyes glaring as if it wanted to devour someone.

If there's something wrong with this bodyguard, then he has every reason to chop those two people up on the spot and feed them to the dogs!

Dozens of eyes focused on Lin Bai like searchlights.

Lin Bai stood still, his expression perfectly composed.

He slowly straightened his collar, then turned around and gave everyone a dismissive look, as if they were country bumpkins.

"Are you people from the outer city... so ignorant?"

"Hold your breath, have you heard of that?"

After saying that, he shut up.

A faint hint of sarcasm lingered at the corner of his mouth, as if any further explanation would lower his own intelligence level.

In fact, his palms were sweaty.

If he can't fool these idiots, he'll have no choice but to fight his way out with Ah Ya!

"Conceal...breath?" Black Mamba frowned, this touched on a blind spot in her knowledge.

She turned to look at Iron Fist, the most educated person in the entire arena.

Iron Fist paused for a moment.

Looking at Lin Bai's unfathomable expression that seemed to say, "Those who know, know; those who don't, don't ask," his brain's CPU began to run wild.

Concealing breath... no breathing... high-frequency combat... energy conservation...

A few seconds later, Iron Fist slapped his thigh and suddenly realized!

"Idiots! They're all a bunch of uncultured idiots!"

Enraged, Iron Fist jumped off his chair, pointed at everyone's noses, and began to curse:

"I always tell you to read more books, but you insist on feeding pigs! You don't even know about the 'Advanced Life Sign Concealment Technique'?"

"This is called locking in your Qi and blood! Do you even know what the second law of thermodynamics is?"

"True martial arts masters, in order to prevent the leakage of their internal 'energy,' will close all their pores, lower their heart rate to the maximum, and switch to internal breathing!"

"This is to reduce carbon emissions... no, it's to be ready for a fatal blow at any time!"

After saying that, Iron Fist looked at A-Ya with admiration, then at Lin Bai, his eyes filled with the thought that "I am not alone on this path."

"It seems you really are a sophisticated person from the inner city, even your bodyguards have reached this level of returning to simplicity. Science, so science."

"I see, he's a true master."

Black Mamba nodded thoughtfully and silently sheathed his dagger: "I've learned something."

Although Mad Dog was completely confused, seeing how mysterious his boss was talking, even bringing up some kind of law, he could only reluctantly look away.

Only Lin Bai, outwardly calm as a rock, was inwardly completely bewildered.

No... I just made up a word on the spot, and you actually managed to make it coherent for me?

Does this work too?

Is this the ability of Iron Fist to fill in the blanks?

Loved it.
