I traverse America, using holy light to quell American terror!

"Hey, stand there!"

Upon noticing Robert approaching the warehouse, Li Yuan spoke in an unfriendly tone.

Seeing this, Edward quickly put away his gold watch and asked warily:

"We've already filmed this area. What are you planning to do about it?"

"Hehe, don't be so wary of me, little brother."

Robert smiled, spread his hands, and took a small step back to show that he meant no harm.

He then explained in a kind tone:

"The conflict we just had was merely a business dispute; I think that's all in the past now."

Li Yuan squinted at him for a while:

"What exactly are you trying to say?"

Seeing that Li Yuan was no longer resistant, Robert quietly breathed a sigh of relief:

"I just happened to see that you seem to have found something good."

Robert winked playfully: "So, have you decided where to make your move?"

Looking at Robert's expression, Li Yuan sneered inwardly.

"That old bastard clearly isn't up to any good."

However, now that he has the system with him, Li Yuan is no longer so cautious.

He coldly raised his chin:

"Just say what you have to say."

"Young man, you're definitely a decisive person!"

Robert rubbed his hands together, looking like an honest farmer:

"I'm an old man in Chicago's South Side, which store here offers fair prices for goods?"

I know you best, I guarantee you won't suffer any losses!

After saying that, he lowered his head and smiled somewhat embarrassedly:

"We didn't make any sales today. If you think the price is right, just give me a commission."

Li Yuan didn't believe a single word Robert said.

But that didn't stop him from wanting to go and see for himself.

Li Yuan hesitated for a moment, then made a reluctant expression:

"Well... okay, but we'll have to drive our car."

"No problem, I have to thank you, after all, the war caused oil prices to skyrocket recently!"

Upon hearing Li Yuan's words, Robert happily agreed.

At the same time, a barely perceptible sneer flashed across his honest face.

Edward, standing nearby, called out with some concern:

"Li Yuan...this...this isn't safe!"

Li Yuan smiled and turned to comfort Edward, raising his voice as he did so:

"It's alright, Edward. If I don't come back, just call the police for me!"

After saying that, he took the gold watch from Edward's pocket and whispered in his ear:

"Book two tickets to Los Angeles, wait for my call."

Then, seeing Edward's stunned expression, he patted him on the shoulder, turned around, and left with Robert.

Li Yuan had wanted to leave Chicago for a long time.

The problem is that I really don't have any money on hand, otherwise I wouldn't be using my last bit of money to scavenge for bargains at the overdue warehouse.

This way, I don't have to renew the lease on the house when it expires.

Because he was planning to take advantage of the system upgrade to pull off a shady heist!

Driving Edward's beat-up 18-year-old pickup truck.

Guided by Robert, Li Yuan made several turns and arrived at a black neighborhood.

The street was still in daylight and didn't look particularly special.

But Li Yuan knew that this place became a gathering place for gangs and drug addicts at night.

At this moment, Robert's eyes lit up, and he pointed to a dilapidated pawnshop covered in graffiti on the street corner and shouted:

"Young man, that's it! Old Kenny always gets the fairest price!"

Li Yuan nodded noncommittally.

They turned the car around and parked it in front of the pawnshop, then got out and went inside.

However, the moment Li Yuan entered the room, he was met with a strong smell of smoke.

"Holy crap, what's that smell?!"

Li Yuangan retched and cursed under his breath.

Robert, who followed in, did not seem to feel any discomfort.

At the same time, the expression on his face was no longer as kind as before.

He pointed at Li Yuan and said with a smile to the two black men in front of him:

"Hey, Kenny, this is the kid."

Kenny, sitting in the boss's chair, squinted and slowly exhaled a smoke ring:

"What do you want to be?"

Li Yuan pinched his nose in disgust and handed over the gold watch:

"Help me check if it's real."

Kenny took the watch and placed it in the cabinet without even looking at it.

He said dismissively, "It's fake, obviously fake."

Just as expected, these people didn't even bother to pretend.

Li Yuan nodded, feigning ignorance.

"If it's fake, shouldn't you return it to me? You're not planning to deal with it yourself, are you?"

Hearing Li Yuan's words, the three people in the pawnshop exchanged glances and burst into laughter in unison.

The tall, burly black thug laughed as he spoke to Robert:

"Hahaha, Robert, you brought a fool with you!"

Li Yuan stared coldly at the three laughing men without moving.

Robert, who had finished laughing, said to Li Yuan with a hint of sarcasm:

"Yellow-skinned monkey, go back to where you belong. You're not welcome here!"

Li Yuan's lips curled into a cold smile, just as he was about to lash out.

Suddenly, I noticed Kenny sitting on the chair, wiping a pistol in his hand.

At the same time, he looked at himself with a half-smile.

Seeing this, Li Yuan had no choice but to slightly raise his hand and stagger back to the doorway.

His gaze towards Robert was filled with anger:

"Robert, you'll regret this."

After saying that, he slammed the door and left.

As Li Yuan got into the pickup truck and started it, his face was no longer angry, but full of smiles.

Perhaps it's due to long-held beliefs.

The descendants of the Great Celestial Empire all value having a legitimate reason for their actions.

Not only was his gold watch stolen, but he was also ridiculed!

Li Yuan muttered to himself, "Don't blame me for being ruthless then!"

As he stepped on the gas, the beat-up pickup truck roared off and disappeared into the street after a turn.

Robert watched the pickup truck disappear through the glass, a sense of relief washing over him.

"That kid looks tall and strong; I'm not sure I'll get the better of him."

At this moment, Kenny behind him took out a wad of cash and placed it on the table:

"Robert, this is yours, click on it."

Upon hearing this, Robert quickly grabbed the bright green US dollar and began to count it carefully.

"1, 2, ... 10, Kenny, are a few missing?"

"That's enough. People should learn to be content."

Kenny waved dismissively, indicating that Robert could leave.

Robert looked at the two people in the pawnshop, feeling angry but unable to speak out.

After a moment of internal struggle, Robert, under the sharp gaze of the black thug, lowered his head and chose to push open the door and leave.

However, Robert, walking towards his home, did not notice.

Li Yuan had already circled back and hidden the car.

They had already quietly crept up behind him and were keeping a close eye on him!

"Damn Kenny, you broke your promise! You said you'd split it 50/50, but you ripped me off!"

Robert arrived at a deserted street and kept cursing Kenny.

He clearly wanted to vent the anger he had just suffered at the pawnshop here.

But just then, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind Robert.

"Hey, Robert!"

Hearing someone call his name, Robert instinctively turned around.

But the moment he turned around, a wooden hammer appeared in front of him!

A muffled thud!

"ah--!"

As his brow bone split open, Robert clutched his bleeding face and collapsed with a wail!

Li Yuan held the blood-stained wooden hammer in one hand, muttering to himself:

"What did you call me again?"

"Ah! Help!"

Robert did not answer Li Yuan's question.

She just covered her face and kept crying for help.

However, all around were dilapidated houses.

No one inside responded to him.

Li Yuan strode over and stepped on Robert's body.

He lowered his head and asked, "I'm asking you a question. What did you just say to me?"

"Help... Someone please save me..."

Having received no answer, Li Yuan shook his head and swung the hammer at the other person's head again!

'Bang!'

"ah--!"

A scream accompanied by splattering blood, and Robert was knocked unconscious!

Just as Li Yuan was about to deliver the final blow.

Out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught sight of a woman standing at the alley entrance, covering her mouth and looking at Li Yuan in terror!
