Chapter 80: Stealing?

Ye Xuan looked coldly at the security guard and said, “Say the word ‘stealing’ one more time, and I’ll tear your mouth apart.”

The security guard’s face turned pale with fear. “Manager, look, this kid is threatening me! He’s really arrogant!”

The manager listened to this and looked at Ye Xuan and Su Mengli. He said, “Come with us to the security office! We will investigate whether you stole anything or not!”

Ye Xuan coldly said, “Get lost! Just a few security guards, and you think you’re the police? Investigate? What qualifications do you have to investigate? Mengli, call the police and also call Dean Lin.”

Su Mengli took out her phone and prepared to call the police.

Seeing this, the manager’s face changed. He signaled to the security guards beside him, and a few security guards immediately stepped forward, trying to snatch Su Mengli’s phone.

Ye Xuan wouldn’t let them off easily. He punched one of the security guards in the chest, and the guard’s body flew horizontally, knocking down five or six other guards.

The manager’s face turned ugly. He knew that things might have taken a turn for the worse.

The security guard who had suggested searching them earlier, the one Ye Xuan had choked, was not an ordinary security guard. He was the younger brother-in-law of the supermarket owner Wang Bo, named Fang Hong.

Fang Hong was useless and relied on his sister’s husband being the big boss to act recklessly.

More than half a month ago, Fang Hong had worked as a security guard in the supermarket. He would look for some beautiful women in the crowd. Once he found a suitable target, he would make the supermarket staff cooperate and set off the electronic anti-theft alarm.

Afterwards, Fang Hong and a few security guards would come forward to intimidate the target and then bring them to the security office. Fang Hong would personally search them and take advantage of the situation.

After the search, Fang Hong would take out some small items that he had prepared in advance and claim that they were stolen by the target to intimidate them.

Most girls were timid and didn’t want to cause trouble. Combined with the fact that something was indeed found during the search, the matter would eventually be dropped, and the girls would leave feeling wronged.

So far, Fang Hong had used this method to search the bodies of two or three young girls. This time, when he saw Su Mengli, he was amazed and started this operation again.

Unfortunately, Ye Xuan and Su Mengli were not ordinary people. Fang Hong had kicked the iron plate this time.

The security guards had originally planned to snatch the phone to prevent Su Mengli from calling the police and then resolve the situation by making a big deal small. Unfortunately, in front of Ye Xuan, they were like paper. In less than five seconds, they were all lying on the ground.

The manager’s face turned ugly. At this point, he still wanted to resolve the situation. “Young man, you should be an Awakened, right? As an Awakened, is it not too much to hurt so many ordinary people?”

Forget it, since you are an Awakened, we won’t pursue this matter anymore. Our supermarket won’t investigate further. Can you leave now?”

Ye Xuan sneered, “Your supermarket won’t pursue it? But I want to pursue it! You accused us of stealing, even wanted to snatch the phone and prevent us from calling the police. Do you think it can just end like this?”

The manager’s face turned ugly. “Don’t go too far!”

Ye Xuan said coldly, “Too far? You haven’t seen what’s really too far!”

The manager saw that the situation was about to escalate and had no choice but to call his boss.

As time passed, twenty minutes later, the police arrived with Lin Xu.

Lin Xu walked over quickly. “What’s going on? Why did you resort to violence against ordinary people?”

Ye Xuan helplessly said, “Dean Lin, the security here accused us of stealing and even wanted to search Mengli. Could I not take action?”

A police officer also said, “Dean Lin, are these two your students?”

Lin Xu, the dean of the Awakening Academy, had a great reputation in the Magic City. Due to the rebirth of spiritual energy, there were too many problems that the police couldn’t handle, so they could only seek help from Lin Xu. Therefore, they all knew Lin Xu.

Lin Xu affirmed, “That’s right, they are my students from the Awakening Academy, and they are the best two students. I don’t believe they would steal.”

At this moment, Wang Bo also arrived. He walked over quickly and asked, “What’s going on? Dean Lin, why are you involved in this matter?”

Wang Bo received a call from the manager saying that something had happened at the supermarket, so he rushed over. Unexpectedly, he encountered Lin Xu as soon as he arrived. He was naturally shocked. He knew Lin Xu very well. From the announcement of the rebirth of spiritual energy to the appearance of one awakened after another, the time was not long, but before that, there were awakened as well.

Lin Xu was one of the early self-awakened. The number of self-awakened was extremely small, so their circle was also very small. It was normal for Wang Bo to know Lin Xu.

However, his talent was only A-class, and his ability development was not high. Compared to Lin Xu, he was far inferior.

Lin Xu looked at Wang Bo and said, “Is this your place?”

“Yes, this supermarket is my property.”

Lin Xu said coldly, “Your supermarket accused the best two students of the Magic City University Awakening Academy of stealing. What do you think should be done?”

Wang Bo’s face changed slightly and said, “Who caused this?”

Fang Hong, seeing his brother-in-law’s serious expression, trembled and stood up. “Brother-in-law, I was wrong…”

Lin Xu’s smile became even stronger. “So it was your little brother-in-law. Your brother-in-law is not treating you well, is he? Did he make you become a security guard? Or did he have other plans for you to become a security guard?”

Wang Bo slapped Fang Hong directly in the face. “Useless thing, apologize to Dean Lin’s students!”

However, Lin Xu said, “No need! Let’s go.”

After Lin Xu finished speaking, he turned and left. Ye Xuan and Su Mengli didn’t hesitate and immediately followed.

Wang Bo’s face changed, and he wanted to catch up, but he didn’t have the courage.

Wang Bo knew very well that if Lin Xu was willing to let his students accept an apology, it meant that his little brother-in-law wouldn’t have any major problems.

And now, Lin Xu refused, and the situation was developing in the worst direction. Fang Hong’s fate depended on the position of those two students in Lin Xu’s heart.

Wang Bo hesitated. Should he try to resist? Or should he lie down and accept his little brother-in-law’s fate?

At this moment, Fang Hong saw that Lin Xu and the others had left. He immediately stood up and shouted, “Why are you still standing here? Disperse! That old man, he looks impressive, but in the end, he’s still afraid of you, brother-in-law!”

Wang Bo was still hesitating, but when he heard his little brother-in-law’s idiotic words, he gave up struggling.

Forget it, let’s wait for Lin Xu to make a decision. Whatever he says, I’ll do it. Moreover, Lin Xu is a ruthless person. If I fight against him, I can’t win, it’s better to lie down and accept it!
