Chapter 71: The Rampaging Orphan Trio (2/2)

Just as the yellow-haired man found the right moment to slap someone, Zhao Qingfeng suddenly shouted.

In the instant the yellow-haired man unconsciously turned his head, Zhao Qingfeng had already swung the half-meter-long iron hook towards his thigh with great force.

Whoosh!

Ow!

The hook struck with significant strength, nearly piercing through the skin and flesh.

The yellow-haired man grimaced in pain, covering his leg and stepping back.

The surrounding students were stunned, not expecting Zhao Qingfeng to strike first in the face of provocation, and even directly hitting a hooligan!

“His guts are too big, that’s the Rampaging Trio…”

“Hey, I just remembered, wasn’t Zhao Qingfeng rumored to be a martial arts expert?”

“Really? Is that true?”

“I don’t know, but looking at his momentum, it seems like he’s going to have a full-fledged fight with these thugs right outside our school. We’re in for a show!”

What martial arts expert?

Zhao Qingfeng knew best that he was a complete novice in fighting.

But he wasn’t afraid.

He had strategy and courage.

His first thought was to lead these guys away, to avoid fighting in front of his mother and Shen Lingyao and possibly harming them.

“Trash!”

Seeing the yellow-haired man retreating while holding his leg, Zhao Qingfeng continued forward, swinging the iron hook and striking the other leg.

The yellow-haired man screamed again in pain, cursing loudly.

However, the force was not enough to incapacitate him. Moreover, being hit first in front of so many students fueled his rage, prompting him to pull out a baton from his pocket and shout to the still-stunned Bashin and Chin Gentsai, “What are you looking at? Beat him to death!”

“Go to hell!”

Zhao Qingfeng cursed.

Seeing Bashin and Chin Gentsai trying to circle around, he kicked over the grill.

Some of the charcoals, still not extinguished, scattered onto them.

Taking advantage of their confusion, Zhao Qingfeng quietly told his mother to quickly leave with Shen Lingyao. Then, he turned and ran towards the crowd, looking back and shouting, “You three losers, picking on women? If you’re not cowards, come fight me outside, don’t make me look down on you!”

“Where do you think you’re going!”

“Zhao Qingfeng, stop right there!”

“If we don’t take you down today, my name isn’t Huang!”

Huang Hao was almost driven mad with anger, having intended to show off in front of the students but instead getting beaten up by Zhao Qingfeng, a blow to his pride.

Bashin and Chin Gentsai were also infuriated.

Pushing through the crowd, they followed Huang Hao, each picking up a brick, and relentlessly pursued Zhao Qingfeng.

Zhao Qingfeng ran a distance, glancing back while running.

Seeing Huang Hao and the others persistently chasing, he smirked, zigzagging and then darting into an alley next to No. 4 Middle School.

Having lived in the county town for many years, his memories made him familiar with every corner.

He vividly remembered that by passing through this alley and taking a few lefts and rights, he would see a public restroom. Jumping over its wall and running 300 meters would lead to a police station, a safe haven. He wondered what Huang Hao and his gang would do then.

“Come on, losers!”

Zhao Qingfeng maintained a distance of about ten meters, running at full speed.

“Damn it, stop!”

Huang Hao, gritting his teeth and swinging his baton in frustration, was infuriated.

“Ha ha ha!”

Zhao Qingfeng laughed while running. Everything was so familiar; a few more turns, and he would see the public restroom.

But just as he rounded the corner, he suddenly froze.

Eh?

Strange!

When did they start road construction here…

The public restroom had disappeared, replaced by damaged road surfaces, three askew excavators, and a solid, three-meter-high fence at the end of the alley.

What was once an escape route…

had turned into a dead-end!
