My sister never calls me brother.

Chapter 1424 Encirclement

According to the plan, Sun Qi would not follow Zhou Han, but would secretly instruct his people to split into two teams.

One of them secretly went to keep an eye on Lin Nianwei's safety.

The other group will follow Su Xiaojin.

As per Zhou Han's instructions, Sun Qi must not interfere with the two girls or be discovered, so maintaining a precise distance is crucial to avoid arousing the girls' suspicion.

However, before leaving, Sun Qi still informed Zhou Han via text message about Xu Zheng and Niu San's close relationship, so that he would be aware of the situation.

On the way home—

After seeing the text message, Zhou Han realized that the bald man described was the same one she had beaten up at the KTV.

Immediately, Zhou Han understood the situation a little better. It must be that this Brother Niu was dissatisfied and came to cause trouble, and it seemed that Xu Zheng had acted as an inside man.

Zhou Han was puzzled about the relationship between Xu Zheng and the bald man at the KTV. They were so far apart in age, they shouldn't be walking together like that.

However, these are not troublesome issues. Zhou Han has Elizabeth by his side, who is probably the most well-informed intelligence pool in the world. If she wants to know something, there is nothing she cannot find out.

Even if someone's ancestors for three generations have stolen things, it's easy for them to be thoroughly investigated.

Through Elizabeth's inquiry, Zhou Han easily learned about Niu San's background.

The bald guy who got beaten up was called Niu San. He was from Zheng Xuan's demolition team. He had a criminal record, having been involved in robbery, prostitution, gambling, and theft. He was an extremely restless guy even when he was young.

With this information, Zhou Han instantly understood the situation.

He guessed that a lot of grudges had piled up together. Niu San wanted to teach him a lesson, and Xu Zheng also disliked him. It wasn't surprising that the two of them were fighting fiercely together, as their common goal was to get rid of him.

Zhou Han couldn't help but sneer inwardly. Was Zheng Xuan finally losing his temper and going to deal with him?

Zhou Han didn't feel particularly panicked about this. When she thought about how Zheng Xuan was about to face the predicament of his family's decline, any counterattack seemed like a foolish trick.

Zhou Han looked back and saw three vans carefully and secretly following her. After leaving the school area, anyone who paid a little attention could notice them.

Just as Sun Qi said, he was driving behind me the whole time.

Zhou Han now understood a little better what these people were up to. Their goal wasn't to harm a few girls, but to seek revenge on her.

However, Zhou Han thought this was good, as it would prevent him from being too distracted and allow him to concentrate on dealing with them.

Zhou Han wasn't afraid of their retaliation. He was thinking of making these bastards suffer so they would stop bothering him.

With Miyazaki Airi, Yao Xiaorui, and Zhou Qiqi all around Zhou Han, he felt somewhat restricted in his actions.

After thinking for a moment, Zhou Han decided to let the girls go home first and meet with the group of people alone.

"Aili, why don't you, Xiaorui, and Qiqi go home first?"

"Huh? Why?" Miyazaki Airi turned around and looked at her, her expression somewhat surprised.

Yao Xiaorui and Zhou Qiqi were equally puzzled. They usually went home obediently, so today's behavior was a bit unexpected.

"Um...didn't you say yesterday that you were out of rice? So I went to buy a bag." Zhou Han remembered what Miyazaki Airi had said yesterday and immediately found an excuse.

“Okay, let’s head back first.” Miyazaki Airi nodded, not seeing anything wrong with it.

“Then… Brother Han, I want to go with you too,” Yao Xiaorui said softly.

"What?!" Zhou Qiqi exclaimed, realizing that Yao Xiaorui's timing was so clever—clearly, accompanying her to buy rice was just a pretense, her real intention was to spend time alone with her brother—"I want to go too! You must be tired by yourself, brother, I'll help you!"

"No need, you guys go back with Aili first. I can manage on my own. It's such a heavy thing, why should I let you help me? I'm a man, after all, give me some face."

“Yes, let’s go back first. It’s just a bag of rice.” Miyazaki Airi tugged at Yao Xiaorui.

Yao Xiaorui wasn't the type to pester anyone, so she could only nod and say, "Okay."

Zhou Qiqi was driven entirely by jealousy. Seeing that Yao Xiaorui wasn't taking the opportunity to get close to Zhou Han, she lost interest.

After the girls went home alone, Zhou Han walked in another direction, not heading towards the supermarket at all, but towards a sparsely populated area.

Zhou Han glanced back and saw several vans following him closely, and immediately understood what was going on.

On the bus—

"Damn, this kid actually left by himself, and he kept heading to deserted places. Is he giving us another chance?" Niu San said happily.

Xu Zheng didn't say anything, but he was a little worried. He felt that Zhou Han was doing it on purpose. He has always been a bit suspicious, and he felt that things were going too smoothly.

Zhou Han slipped into a small alley by himself and pretended to relieve himself against the wall, which made the group of people behind him lower their guard.

Sure enough, three vans stopped at the alley entrance, thinking it was the perfect spot to make their move.

A group of people got out of the van, carrying sticks and weapons. They glared at Zhou Han with fierce expressions. There seemed to be about fifty of them.

However, Xu Zheng did not get out of the car, but chose to stay inside and observe the situation outside.

Niu San dangled the iron rod on the ground, making a rattling sound.

He stopped, glared at Zhou Han, raised his chin, and said provocatively.

"Hey kid, how have you been?"

"Why are you here?" Zhou Han wasn't surprised.

"Do you even need to ask? You were so arrogant in the KTV, do you think this matter will just end like this?" Niu San's smile gradually turned ferocious. Although he didn't intend to kill Zhou Han and make a big fuss, he absolutely had to cripple Zhou Han to vent his anger.

"Ha..." Zhou Han sneered, "You have a problem with me hitting you? You fucking harassed my sister, so you deserve to be beaten, what's the problem?"

"Damn it, you're about to die and you still dare to be so arrogant? Are you some kind of reincarnation of Sun Wukong?" Niu San cursed sarcastically.

"You think you're about to die? You're kidding me. You think you can handle me? You're dreaming!" Zhou Han rolled up his sleeves.

"Impressive, I admit you're a pretty good fighter, you high school kid, but how many can you take on? Today I've brought fifty brothers, and if I don't beat you until you question your existence, I've wasted my life." Brother Niu waved his hand and roared, "All of you, attack! Beat them to a pulp! I'll take responsibility if anything goes wrong!"

His henchmen rushed forward, brandishing their clubs, and charged at Zhou Han, intending to gang up on him.

"Fine, since you're so persistent, I don't mind sending you to the hospital for a few days!"

As Zhou Han spoke, he picked up a spinning top from the ground and, relying on the agility of the data-modified body, knocked back the people who came over.

He wielded the bricks without hesitation, relentlessly striking the heads of these thugs. Each blow knocked them unconscious, while another left them clutching their bloodied and mangled foreheads, screaming in agony.

This desperate, reckless look startled Niu San, who felt ashamed and thought to himself—

I go!

Is this some kind of reckless act?

I feel like I don't have enough people with me; they can't keep this kid in check...

Chapter 1425 Furious

Zhou Han smashed a brick into Niu San's forehead, knocking him down and causing him to faint on the spot.

Facing more than fifty thugs, Zhou Han didn't feel much pressure; on the contrary, he felt quite relaxed.

After all, Zhou Han is a data-modified being, which is more than enough for fighting, making it incredibly easy for him.

Zhou Han threw the brick in her hand aside and prepared to leave.

Before leaving, Zhou Han glanced meaningfully at the van. He knew that Xu Zheng, that little rascal, was inside, but he didn't intend to drag him out and beat him up.

Because Zhou Han wasn't in a hurry, Xu Zheng needed to be dealt with properly; there was no way he could escape.

Xu Zheng, hiding in the van, was sweating profusely. He felt that he could see Zhou Han through the tinted glass, but Zhou Han couldn't see him.

But Xu Zheng didn't know what was going on, but he felt as if Zhou Han outside was staring intently at him through the opaque glass.

Maybe it's just my imagination?

Zhou Han shouldn't have known she was in the car.

Xu Zheng kept trying to calm himself down, trying to make himself feel at ease.

Zhou Han didn't stare at Xu Zheng for long before leaving, thinking she'd go to the supermarket to buy a bag of rice so she could report back.

Only after Zhou Han left did Xu Zheng dare to secretly breathe a sigh of relief, thinking that he had finally escaped a disaster and was almost scared to death.

Xu Zheng got out of the van and looked at the thugs lying on the ground, being beaten to death with bricks. He felt a surge of fear. Luckily, he had dodged well, or he would have been beaten too.

Xu Zheng felt that Zhou Han was a bit strange. He was too good at fighting. There were fifty people in total, and they were all beaten like this. It was a little scary.

This is outrageous! Is there anyone who can handle Zhou Han?

Xu Zheng felt extremely embarrassed when he saw Niu San clutching his forehead and rolling around on the ground.

I was originally planning to have Niu San teach Zhou Han a lesson, but I didn't expect Zhou Han to be so tough that I couldn't kick him at all. Instead, I ended up getting into a mess.

Xu Zheng helped Brother Niu up and pretended to be kind.

"Brother Niu, are you alright?"

"Ouch..." Niu San rolled his eyes, feeling dizzy and his head was about to crack from Zhou Han's punch. "This little bastard, he's too ruthless. If he had used just a little more force, he would have smashed me to death with a brick..."

"That's just how Zhou Han is; he goes all out in a fight," Xu Zheng said helplessly.

"Damn, I didn't expect this kid to be so good at fighting. More than fifty of us couldn't take him down. Did he grow up eating fertilizer?" Niu San was filled with doubt and surprise.

“Having more people is useless; it’s better to find a few skilled fighters.” Xu Zheng paused, then tentatively asked, “Brother Niu, what do we do next? Or… should we just give up?”

Actually, Xu Zheng didn't want to waste time with Niu San. He couldn't do anything about Zhou Han, so he figured it was better to avoid trouble and end up like this, which was just asking for trouble.

"Forget it?!" Niu San's eyes widened, and he said with a face full of dissatisfaction, "How can we just let it go like this? I've been in the underworld for so many years and I've never suffered in silence. Now a mere high school student dares to shit on my head. How am I supposed to live in the underworld after this? I have to get revenge!"

“But we can’t beat Zhou Han either. Instead of wasting time, why don’t we ask the young master for help?” Xu Zheng remembered that Zheng Xuan had a particularly powerful bodyguard.

"No need, why invite some young master? Do you want me to lose my job?!" Niu San immediately raised his eyebrows and glared.

"No...that's not what I meant. Since Brother Niu still wants Gao Zhouhan, don't we need outside help?" Xu Zheng said awkwardly.

Upon hearing this, Niu San felt that Xu Zheng seemed to be looking down on him, implying that if he couldn't do it himself, he would have to ask others for help.

"Let me tell you, no matter how good your kung fu is, you're still afraid of a kitchen knife!"

"This..." Xu Zheng thought for a moment, puzzled. "Brother Niu, what do you mean?"

“I have a homemade gun…” Niu San suddenly said.

What seemed like a very ordinary statement actually shocked Xu Zheng quite a bit. The fact that he had a homemade gun meant that he was serious about it.

The simple explanation is that it could lead to someone's death. What Niu San meant was, even if Zhou Han is good at fighting, can he withstand a bullet?

Xu Zheng's face immediately turned terrified, realizing that Niu San was going to resort to any means necessary, even using a gun.
