Chapter 244: Chapter 212: The Cunning Lassi’s Defense

Jack poked Xiao Ya from behind, making a gesture that they were ready to take action.

If they couldn’t make it, they would have to force their way through!

With Xiao Ya’s talent, there shouldn’t be a problem.

But just as Xiao Ya was about to use her talent, the ticket inspector came over with some security guards.

Wang Dayong waved his hands dismissively at the group.

"Our train isn’t for the likes of those who can’t afford a ticket."

It was over.

With the station master and these security guards, there were at least a dozen people.

Xiao Ya wasn’t confident she could deal with so many at once.

She was just curious—aside from the station master, were there no other men here?

But if they relied on foot instead of the high-speed train to reach Lunte City, let alone in five days, even ten more days wouldn’t be enough to reach the cathedral!

So.

This high-speed train was a must for them!

As the four determined poor souls stood their ground, the security guards began to size up their batons.

"Quite the welcome party, it seems we’ve got some troublemakers today."

"We have to take this train today, no matter what!"

"Captain, just give the order..."

In such a crucial moment, neither Jack nor Park Renmeng were slackers.

One stepped forward, ready to take the hits, while the other had his Healing Technique primed and ready to go.

Both parties locked eyes, neither willing to back down!

Just then, Raxi, who had been hiding in the back, timidly spoke up.

"Actually, uh, speaking of Gold Coins, I do have a few..."

Everyone: ???

"Don’t look at me, this—it’s what I found on Fishing Man. You guys told me to search him, remember?"

The three of Xiao Ya’s team struggled to suppress their urge to curse.

Damn it!

You had money and you didn’t say it sooner?

I was all geared up and ready to charge through, blood and all.

"How much."

"31 Gold Coins, and a dozen or so silver coins."

That still wasn’t enough.

"The gracious station master, sir, could you possibly make an exception?"

"Not even a single coin short is allowed. If I make an exception for you today, and for someone else tomorrow, then what’s to become of my little business?"

Xiao Ya and her teammates fell silent.

Last time on the iron chain bridge, it was just about choosing to leave one teammate out of the reward.

But this time, did they really have to abandon a teammate altogether?

"Captain Xiao Ya, I—I think I can manage to overcome the hardship."

Raxi quietly spoke from behind Xiao Ya.

Right!

Xiao Ya’s eyes lit up; this kid’s talent!

"Alright, station master, then we’ll only buy three tickets."

The group then went to the bathroom together in the waiting hall.

Of course, going to the bathroom was a ruse; their main aim was to give Raxi the opportunity to undress.

Not long after, Park Renmeng emerged from the bathroom with a pile of clothes and underwear in his hand.

But Raxi wasn’t with them when they appeared.

Luckily, Wang Dayong didn’t pay them much mind since they didn’t seem to carry any valuables; after all, clothes weren’t contraband.

Not until they boarded the carriage did the three of them finally breathe a sigh of relief.

"Raxi, are you in? Are you there?"

"Shh, I’m already in. Don’t talk now; I have something important to do."

Raxi whispered to the three of them.

Really?

This unreliable Raxi actually had something important to do?

Park Renmeng asked with a bit of anxiety,

"Lasi, did you find anything unusual in the carriage?"

"Yes, the situation is very serious! So you must keep quiet, and leave the rest to me to handle!"

"Okay, then you must be careful..."

It was rare for little Asan to muster such courage, so the trio naturally offered their full cooperation.

Soon, the smell of curry clinging to Lasi vanished from around the three of them.

Jack scanned the carriage warily and whispered with a frown.

"Captain, there seems to be something off about this station, why are all the passengers female?"

So far, apart from the station master in the waiting hall, they hadn’t seen any other men.

"It’s fine, stay steady and don’t panic, aren’t I here to cover for you?"

Xiaoya clenched his fists to mask the panic inside.

"Hey, what are you, a man, looking at so randomly? Yes, do you think you have the right to look at others? I’m talking about you, blondie!"

Just then, the girl with the pockmarked face sitting opposite Jack suddenly started picking a quarrel out of nowhere.

"Me?"

Jack incredulously pointed at himself and immediately protested his innocence.

"I wasn’t looking around, oh my god, I swear, I was just looking, just looking at... just now I was looking at the carriage environment."

The pockmarked-faced woman hugged her small shoulder bag closer to herself and cast increasingly disdainful glances at Jack.

"Looking at the carriage environment? Hahaha, I saw your gaze linger on my face for three seconds already, that excuse is pretty lame, isn’t it? You’re obviously peeping at me, fantasizing about me in your mind!"

Damn!

That’s quite the accusation!

It’s like one more look and you explode, one step closer and you melt!

Her words captured the attention of the entire carriage.

Even someone with thick skin like Jack, who liked to sell out his teammates, blushed instantly and became irritated on the spot.

"Not at all, sister? What do you mean by that? My gaze lingered on your face for three seconds? Thanks for the compliment! Don’t you have any idea what you look like? When you left home this morning..."

"Jack, shut up!"

Xiaoya cut off Jack’s words with a cold voice and then lowered his voice to warn him.

"Bold! Don’t you know how to pick your battles?"

Jack was taken aback, and only then did it dawn on him as a layer of cold sweat formed on his forehead.

What had he just done?

Before entering the carriage, he had repeatedly reminded himself not to start any trouble.

But when this woman slandered him,

he had immediately lost his composure, thinking only of how to retort.

Perhaps his gaze did pause on this woman’s face.

But it definitely was not for three seconds, and as for fantasizing about her in his mind, that was utter nonsense.

"Captain Xiaoya, I’m sorry, just now, I was... I seemed a bit impulsive."

Jack stopped talking, but the girl opposite him didn’t let him off the hook and continued to scan him as if she had infrared vision,

hoping to find something like a listening device or a hidden camera.

But unfortunately,

Jack had pretty much removed everything but fabric from his body in the restroom.

Seeing that she couldn’t find any leverage, the woman had no choice but to snort in disdain.

"Hmph, voyeur! Ptui!"

After cursing, she picked up her bag, moved to a seat far from Jack, and kept pointing and whispering about Jack to the person beside her.

Jack, who had just managed to suppress his anger, felt it flare up again.

Fortunately, Xiaoya intervened in time, or else he would have definitely fired back.

"What’s the matter with you? Are you trying to get us all killed?"

"Sorry, Captain, I don’t know what’s going on, I just felt a burst of inexplicable anger and wanted to argue with her."

Park Renmeng pinched his own thigh vigorously and trembled.

"Aish! That’s right, I also felt an anger I couldn’t contain, and I wanted to fight back against them. Jack, we both need to hold back, they’re all just waiting for us to make a mistake."

An inexplicable anger?

Xiaoya immediately thought of the device that could affect feelings and memories in Hengshui Prison.

"Be careful, this might be the rule of this carriage; once our emotions are affected, we’re most likely going to die here."

At the same time, Xiaoya was still unclear about one thing.

"However, why haven’t I felt the influence you two are talking about? Anyway, you two just be careful for now."
