Chapter 556: I Discovered A Fish-Man
I'm Not Going to Be Bullied By a Girl
After chatting with Ai Mi for a while, I felt a bit sleepy because I didnât get a good sleep last night, then I actually fell asleep without realizing it.
I fell asleep on Ai Miâs single bed.
Well, although I called it a single bed, a rich personâs bed for a single person was far larger than the standard double bed for a normal person. (I heard that the daughter of the richest man in the world has a bed with an area of 50,000 square kilometers) I ungracefully fell asleep on my sisterâs bed.
Initially, I only wanted to rest for a while, because it wasnât comfortable when Ai Mi held down my left hand.
But somehow, I fell asleep.
The most embarrassing part was that I actually felt very âcomfortableâ when I fell asleep in my sisterâs bed.
Perhaps it was because Peng TouSi was guarding outside, so I didnât think the police would be able to get in easily.
I slept all afternoon.
When I opened my eyes again, the room was dark because the curtains were drawn.
I felt something light and soft climb onto my bed and sit on top of my waist as I was still in a haze.
The other person seemed to be trembling with excitement with a sly smile on her face.
Her lower body was on my waist as her upper body slowly pressed towards meâ¦
I was startled and jolted awake.
Isnât this Ai Mi, whatâs she trying to do? What are you trying to do to your brother while heâs asleep and unguarded?
Iâm more scared of your smile than your tight sports outfit. Itâs the twisted smile of a person who wants to get revenge on the world. Itâs even more twisted and bizarre when itâs on your perfect and delicate pretty face.
A black object came towards my face, after which I realized that it was a light down pillow.
âDie, Iâm going to smother you to death.â Ai Mi shouted as she pushed the pillow on my face, âMy stomach hurts so much, how dare you sleep so comfortably.â
âThe whole world should hurt along with me.â
So it was because I was sleeping too comfortably, but you couldnât sleep because of menstrual cramps, so you took it out on me.
Where did you even learn that killing technique? Is it not enough for your brother to be murderer, but you also want to become a female murderer to catch up with me?
Also, whatâs up with wanting everyone to suffer with you? Just like how women never understand testicular pain, men will also never understand menstrual cramps.
âStop it.â I effortlessly grabbed the pillow from Ai Miâs hand, âI didnât sleep well last nightâ¦â
âSo you have to take my bed? Iâm the one who has a stomachache.â
âI think thereâs a bedroom next door where Winnie sleeps every time she comes here, so I can go sleep there instead.â
To be honest, it didnât feel good being awoken. I was really sleepy and just wanted to go back to sleep.
Ai Mi was still sitting on my belly, but she wasnât holding her murder weapon anymore. She crossed her arms in front of her developing chest.
âForget it, you look like your in pain. Iâll be the bigger person and sleep in Winnieâs room.â
I nodded, rolled over and went back to sleep.
I donât know how much time passed, but when I woke up again, I felt someone next to me.
I heard the sound of soft and delicate breaths next to my ear. There was also a mixture of lemon and mint, a slightly sour and sweet smell in the air.
I opened my eyes and saw Ai Mi curled up next to me like a cat, it was super cute.
My head was already clear, so I sat up gently and stroked Ai Miâs golden hair.
âYour brother may have to leave you for a whileâ¦â
âYou have to be strong in this world where thereâs danger around every corner.â
âBut I feel slightly at ease with the loyal Peng TouSi by your sideâ¦â
I felt conflicted right now. As Ai Mi said, as long as I lowered myself to Ai ShuQiao, I definitely wouldnât have to go to prison, I can also watch my sisterâs growth like a normal brother.
But just like how the class leader said last night that she believes that if she plays favorites, she will lose her conviction as a police officer and can no longer pursue other criminals.
The same is true for me. If I accept Ai ShuQiaoâs help, I will have violated my vow of ânever bow downâ and may fall into Ai ShuQiaoâs trap and becoming one of her pawns.
So, even if I have to spend a few years behind bars, I will never ask for help from Ai ShuQiao. If the police wants to arrest me, then come and try.
I covered Ai Miâs lower body with a quilt and left quietly without disturbing her sleep.
âTake care of my sister for me.â I deliberately told Peng TouSi, who looked at me strangely, not understanding the deeper meaning of my words.
At night, I was lying on my bed at home looking at the ceiling, but the police still did not come to arrest me.
July 31, the police still did not come.
August 1, they still did not come.
What the hell is going on? I think Iâm going crazy from all the waiting.
I called Xing Xing, since he was well-informed, to ask if there was any news lately.
âBrother Ye, you finally remembered us. Where have you been killing people recently and why donât you call usâ¦â
Stop talking about killing people, because Iâve actually killed someone.
âHuh, you want to know about recent news in our circle, well⦠the boss of Dong Shan High had his dog stolen, does that count?â
âWhat kind of news is that!â I snarled, âTo be considered news, it has to be at least a loss of a limb or a life.â
âAh, youâre worthy of being the big brother since you have serious tastesâ¦â Xing Xing fretted for a while and said, âItâs not that Iâm not trying, but thereâs really no news recently. We can keep talking about the boss of Dong Shan High, his dogâ¦â
Screw his dog! I killed Tie Xian, how could that not be considered news! I think it should be a big news among hooligans in the city.
I was filled with suspicion, so I decided to personally go out and conduct an in-depth investigation into whether Tie Xian was dead or alive.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained. I wasnât scared of anything since I was already prepared to go to prison. So I specifically selected the freight terminal of Da Ning River (The area under control by Huang Sanâs father, Boss Huang), as the location to gather intelligence.
Of course, I was wearing a windbreaker along with sunglasses.
But I had bad luck, I bumped right into Boss Huang without being able to walk anywhere. My sunglasses was also knocked crooked, so there was no reason he did not recognize me.
However, the always arrogant, self-proclaimed âMaster Huang Wuâ, looked a bit depressed today. When I looked closely, I could see injuries on his forehead.
Huh, I donât remember anyone giving boss Huang a beating, but I did beat up his son pretty badâ¦
Boss Huang recognized me and his legs instantly locked in place. I was also quite nervous, as I had to run as soon as he shouted, but I didnât know how fast I can run with an injured leg.
Unexpectedly, Boss Huang grinned bitterly. He stuck his left hand in his pocket as if it was injured and then greeted me with a trembling right hand.
âUm, I know youâre a great person, so please donât take my prior actions to heart. I will never ask for trouble againâ¦â
He was practically speaking in a begging tone of voice.
What was happening, why would the insufferably arrogant Boss Huang, who thinks he can even handle murders, admit defeat?
Seeing that he was afraid, and wanted to send me away as fast as possible, there must have been something going on behind the scenes.
I was at best a middle school student who was a relatively capable fighter, so he had no reason to fear me at all.
Unless, they were afraid of the people supporting me.
Who is it, who was the one who intervened. Was is it Ai ShuQiao or Huo ZhenBang?
âBoss Huang.â I softened my tone and asked, âYouâre hurt. When and how did you get injured?â
I deliberately observed Boss Huangâs ears, because I always felt that Huo Zhenbangâs men had the habit of cutting off peopleâs ears.
His ears were still both there, but the bruise near his temple was hard to hide.
âUm, young master Yeâ¦â Boss Huang suddenly changed his way of addressing me, indicating he had already found out about how âLin Yeâ was an alias, but I donât know why he called me âYoung masterâ.
âI⦠I admit it. This small dock of mine isnât a match for young master Ye. Please be magnanimous and spare our family, I have a 500 year old motherâ¦â
Boss Huang begged with a slight sob, his anxious state of mind also caused him to have a slip of the tongue.
Hey, what are you saying, why are you making me look like the bad guy whoâs kicking people around.
âBoss Huang, speak slowly, donât be afraid.â I turned serious, âAre you being threatened?â
Boss Huang had a bitter expression like he couldnât say. He was pretending I was the one who was confused, he was the one who sent someone to threaten me, but now he pretended not to know anything.
âUm, young Master Ye, my son has offended you for some reason, but heâs currently lying in the hospitalâs intensive care unit. He will sincerely repent, so I hope you can leave him a way out.â
âI didnât say I was going to kill him.â Boss Huang bent over backwards and listening to him made me frown, I asked: âTell me the truth, howâs Tie Xian.â
Boss Huangâs face turned from green to white then from white to green and said in a trembling voice.
âI⦠I donât know anyone called Tie Xian, I have no relationship with him. Young master Ye must be mistakenâ¦â
âIâm not mistaken.â The current atmosphere sent chills down my spine, âIs Tie Xian dead or alive, where is he?â
âNo, nowhere.â Boss Huang insisted, âIâve never heard of anyone with that name. Where he is also has nothing to do with me or young master Ye. Please just forget about it.â
How can I forget, the moment I used Fa Jin from Yin Yang Sanshou, I clearly heard the sound Tie Xianâs ribs cracking. Although I was unconscious, I was sure I splintered his ribs and caused them to pierce his lungs. Including the dislocation of the jaw, those are all quite serious injuries.
Iâve been living with the burden of the possibility of being a murderer since then.
Where is Tie Xian? I still want to see him whether dead or alive.
I grabbed on to Boss Huangâs shirt and asked him tell me where Tie Xian was. I spotted a familiar figure in the corner of my eye, so I turned around.
Wasnât he one of Tie Xianâs four men, the big man named Xia Qiu.
âStop.â I pointed at him and asked, âWhere did Tie Xian go, did you save him or not?â
Xia Qiu shrank back, but it was too late to cover his face. He thought about how to escape, then in a quick wit he suddenly jumped into the river.
I couldnât swim, so I couldnât chase him. I could only helplessly watch the river.
âHey.â I pulled Boss Huang and questioned, âTie Xianâs men showed up in your dock, so you canât get out of it anymore. Whereâs Tie Xian and why are you so afraid of me?â
âWhere did you see Tie Xianâs men?â Boss Huang acted like he was confused again. He followed the direction of my finger and looked at Xia Qiu who was currently fighting the waves.
âYoung master Ye, youâre mistaken, thatâs not one of Tie Xianâs men.â
âWhat is it if itâs not one of Tie Xianâs men.â I said angrily, âI remember clearly the burn he had on the left side of his face.â
Boss Huang was silent for a minute, then expressionlessly said, âActually, what you just saw, young master Ye, is the Da Ning River water monster, that is, the fish manâ¦â (Reverse of merman, fish on top)
In order to deny it, you even made up a man-fish. How shameless can you get?
At this time, seeing me grab their boss, the dock workers surrounded us. But evidently Boss Huang already explained the situation to them in advance, so they only came to persuade me, none of them dared to disrespect me.
âYoung master Ye, please let Boss Huang go, we still have to rely on him to make a living.â
âGood.â I said, âSince you should all know how to swim, go catch the guy who just dived in and I will let your boss go.â
The workers all looked at me and they all had a sour expression on their face.
âYoung master Ye, that wonât work because the one who just jumped in⦠heâ¦â
âWhat about him?â
âHeâs really a water monster. Heâs the famous fish man of the Daning River, if we go after, we will all get eaten.â
The other workers also chimed in: âThatâs right, itâs a fish man, a fish man.â
Crap, you guys really react fast. It looks like all of you have a future working for this boss.
If I think about it, the only ones who can make Boss Huang this scared would be Ai ShuQiao, but I didnât have any evidence.
However, this would have been an opportunity to blackmail me, so why did Ai ShuQiao help me solve the matter silently. Also, is Tie Xian dead or alive, itâs not like he just suddenly disappeared.
