Chapter 477: Chapter 87

"Cough cough..."

Lin Shuyou seemed to want to let out a cold laugh, thinking the young man before him was mocking him, but due to his injuries, his laugh turned into a cough, and he spat out two mouthfuls of blood.

Run Sheng picked up the Yellow River Shovel and walked over, swaying the shovel head at the back of Lin Shuyou’s head and imitating the motion of playing golf as seen in TV dramas.

He was just waiting for Brother Xiao Yuan’s command to smash the opponent’s head with the shovel and then find a pit to bury him.

Li Zhiyuan averted his gaze, looking towards Tan Wenbin: "Brother Binbin, you carry him to the store’s underground chamber first."

"Okay!"

Tan Wenbin jogged over, bent down, and carefully carried Lin Shuyou on his back.

Run Sheng: "Brother Xiao Yuan, are we going to the underground chamber to handle the body?"

Li Zhiyuan shook his head: "Let’s talk first."

Run Sheng didn’t understand, but he nodded obediently.

Li Zhiyuan wanted to turn around and follow them to the store, but he paused and explained:

"Brother Runsheng, our goal is to eliminate dangers, but eliminating dangers isn’t just about physical elimination. With a clear target, there are various methods available."

"Oh."

Run Sheng laughed naively and scratched his head, quite surprised that Brother Xiao Yuan would take the time to explain this to him, as the old Brother Xiao Yuan wouldn’t waste time on such things.

Xue Liangliang would never have imagined that the store he gifted to everyone now resembled a bandit stronghold within a school campus.

Especially the store’s built-in underground chamber, which was an excellent place for holding and guarding hostages.

After carrying the person into the store, Tan Wenbin grabbed a bunch of beverages from the shelves, then headed to the underground chamber.

Placing the person on Run Sheng’s bed, a little black dog came out of its cage, circled around the bed, and then returned to its cage.

Tan Wenbin opened a bottle of soda and offered it to Lin Shuyou’s lips: "Here, drink something sweet."

He did this because he had seen Brother Xiao Yuan drink a beverage after each operation, so he specially picked it up.

Lin Shuyou pursed his lips, refusing to open his mouth.

"Not drinking?"

"Cough cough... it’s carbonated."

"Oh, sorry." Tan Wenbin took a sip himself, burped, then opened a bottle of milky beverage, inserted a straw, and offered it to Lin Shuyou. Lin Shuyou sipped from the straw, taking small sips.

Sugar water was a cost-effective "nutrient" after all.

After finishing a bottle, Tan Wenbin asked: "Want more?"

"No need."

"Don’t be shy, there’s more if you want."

Lin Shuyou looked at Tan Wenbin puzzled: "Are you taking care of me?"

Tan Wenbin shrugged: "Just returning the favor since you took care of one of my guys before."

The shovel stroke from the White Crane Child before could have been a few centimeters further, and then his ’little brother’ definitely wouldn’t have been saved.

Tan Wenbin could tell that those few centimeters not being targeted were not due to his luck, but because the person intentionally held back.

Including the later fight, the White Crane Child clearly didn’t hit him with the same force as he did with Run Sheng and Yin Meng; otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to continue hopping around like he was.

"So, he had recognized me before."

"Brother Xiao Yuan is clever, you’ll get used to it."

"What are you planning to do with me?"

"Since Brother Xiao Yuan brought you here, he clearly intends to talk to you. If there’s a misunderstanding... you better adjust your attitude first."

"What if I don’t?"

"Then Run Sheng will bury you, and I’ll heap extra dirt over you."

"Hehe..."

"Stop pretending."

Lin Shuyou: "..."

"Right, keep that look, we’re already at this point, so don’t bother putting on any acts."

"He’s harboring ghosts..."

"So what if he is."

"That’s wicked..."

"Do you have any last wishes? If I can fulfill them, I will."

"Tell my master that I was eliminated..."

"Choose another, why would I inform your master? Kill off a junior like you just to draw an elder in?")

"Don’t worry, Brother Xiao Yuan will definitely arrange a very normal death for you, or set up another cause of death, directing suspicion elsewhere.

Even when your master and their group come searching, they’ll likely seek our help for avenging you, and they’ll have to thank us."

"I had already informed my master about this situation beforehand."

"Liar." Tan Wenbin sighed, "If you really had, you wouldn’t be saying it now, aren’t you just reminding us to prepare?"

"You..."

Tan Wenbin looked down at Lin Shuyou’s left calf, which was swollen and continuously bleeding.

"Ah You, that leg of yours, it’s about to be ruined, isn’t it?"

"Hmm..."

"Listen to me, if Brother Xiao Yuan didn’t want to give you a chance to live, he wouldn’t have had me carry you here, nor would he have allowed me to stay alone with you for a while to work on your thoughts.

I guess, Brother Xiao Yuan also noticed that you were lenient on my behalf."

At this moment, footsteps approached. Tan Wenbin left the bed, picking up a soda to drink.

Li Zhiyuan pushed open the door and walked in, sitting on the chair opposite the bed.

The young man also held a can of Jianlibao, drinking silently without speaking.

The room fell into a stretch of silence.

Eventually, Lin Shuyou was the first to speak: "What do you want to ask me?"

Li Zhiyuan shook his head: "Actually, I don’t really have anything to ask you."

"Nothing to ask... and you brought me here?"

"Just wanted to observe if you still pose a threat. And to take a closer look at the side effects of Divination."

"Side effects? Don’t you also perform Divination?"

"I don’t, I was just pretending."

"How is that possible?"

"Nothing’s impossible, you, as a Divination Child, are too unskilled, only capable of summoning guiding spirits, I knew I could fool you by pretending."
