35: Chapter 35 Is It So Melodramatic?
“Alright, I’ll come back when you have more stock,” Zhao Guang said as he waved his hand and ran to a large rock to start rubbing it, while Kapas watched him closely.
Zhao Guang suddenly felt a wave of crisis wash over him.
The Otherworld seemed very dangerous.
He had thought that not many people in the military camp mastered Combat Energy, and had once believed that the combat abilities of this world were just so-so.
Now it seemed, it was probably a mutually understood outcome.
The Lion People all knew Combat Energy.
Even if their numbers were few, how much could it really be?
One has to be more cautious, Zhao Guang didn’t want to die inexplicably in this place.
He still had a great life to enjoy, so he’d better take it easy.
As he pondered this, he chatted with Kapas now and then.
After ten minutes, the Space Gate finally opened, and Zhao Guang said goodbye and left.
The next morning, as planned, Zhao Guang woke up early quite naturally.
He didn’t need anyone to call him, nor could he fall back asleep.
It seemed that the result of his recent training was an excess of energy.
Deciding to go out, he headed to the commercial street to stroll around.
As he walked, Zhao Guang started thinking about the merchandise.
“Right, how could I forget this, hot pot base ingredients, a major consumer item,” he thought.
This product was absolutely dominant in flavor and also very suitable for the taste of the people of the Otherworld.
Most importantly, a large chunk could be used up at once rather than conserving it like some other condiments.
“No way, I can’t buy it here.
The prices are too high.
I need to look up and see if there are actual manufacturers, direct purchases might be cheaper.
Maybe calculate the cost-effectiveness ratio or something.
While he was thinking, suddenly a noisy commotion came from ahead.
What was happening?
Zhao Guang, fully embracing the nature of onlookers from his country, moved closer to see.
There on the ground was an old man, lying there as if he was seriously ill.
The people around him were running far away, forming a circle around him, and a little girl was looking around anxiously.
“Brothers and sisters, please, come and help.”
The little girl looked rather frail, apparently unable to lift the old man.
And with someone else nearby, the people around seemed a bit reassured, it seemed not to be a scam.
“Am I this lucky to stumble upon such melodramatic scenes?” Zhao Guang touched the Potions in his pocket, most common ailments could be cured instantly with these.
And here was an old man with a beautiful granddaughter.
The plot was just too melodramatic.
Seeing that everyone around was hesitant to approach, Zhao Guang thought it over and decided to help, he couldn’t just ignore his conscience.
While thinking, Zhao Guang went over, “Hey, how are you feeling?
It’s okay, what’s wrong with him?”
Before he could finish, Zhao Guang widened his eyes in shock as a pair of strong arms grabbed him, immensely powerful.
To his surprise, the old man was the one who had attacked him.
As the old man lay on the ground, he watched Zhao Guang with a cunning look in his eyes, and cries of pain got louder.
“Everyone, come quick, a young man has knocked over an old man,” screamed the old man.
The little girl beside him also seized Zhao Guang at the first opportunity, “You knocked over my grandpa.
You’re not getting away without paying, you must compensate.”
Wow, it really is a scam, “So you guys are working as a team now, huh?
Have to be that professional?”
“Kid, you’re not leaving today without paying fifty thousand.
We treat everyone the same, just fifty thousand, not a penny more.”
“From what you’re saying, should I be thanking you?” Zhao Guang was incredulous.
Have people really become like this now?
At that moment, people around them started whispering and pulled out their phones to record.
But these two seemed fearless, still grasping Zhao Guang firmly.
“That’s right, who doesn’t know we have the best reputation.
That guy next door, he wouldn’t let you off without a hundred thousand.
I’m actually asking for less.”
Zhao Guang’s eyes gleamed as he suddenly smiled, “My dear elder, don’t you know that people nowadays are more cautious?”
“Forget those smartphones.
No one was filming from the start, and recording now won’t help.
There’s no surveillance here either, so just face it, pay up,” the old man bellowed even louder while speaking.
While speaking, the old man’s voice grew even louder.
Zhao Guang suddenly took a big mushroom from his body and said to the camera in front, “See this?
The camera is here, it’s used for filming wildlife outdoors, very professional.
You think I would dare come here unprepared?”
“Well done young man, it’s about time someone dealt with these people.”
Zhao Guang felt secretly lucky that the cameras he bought last time couldn’t be used, so he had kept this mushroom-shaped one on him as a decoration.
Though this camera wasn’t switched on, these two individuals didn’t recognize it, they had never seen such professional equipment.
Seeing the device, the old man was dumbfounded, and so was the young girl.
They stared at Zhao Guang incredulously as if they couldn’t believe someone would go that far.
They had everything calculated perfectly, how could they fumble at the last step?
“Why don’t we call the police?
This is evidence.
Have you two thought about how many years you want to go in for?
Just for extorting fifty thousand, that’s enough for a criminal case.” Zhao Guang revealed a warm smile.
The old man dropped the act and suddenly stood up, throwing a punch at Zhao Guang.
“How could you be so nasty, who carries a camera around all the time?
You’re too bad.”
Zhao Guang lightly dodged, then dodged again.
These few days of practicing had made his body much more agile.
In a stroke of enlightenment, Zhao Guang suddenly used a basketball maneuver, dodging and weaving, making the old man lose his balance entirely.
With a “thud”, the old man sat down hard on the ground, properly fallen this time.
Looking at him, it really seemed to hurt, Zhao Guang almost felt the pain for him.
“You all saw, I didn’t touch him, he fell by himself.”
“We can all testify, this old man is a scammer.”
“Don’t worry, I got it all on camera, the angle is very clear,” a young person shouted excitedly.
“You, you guys, how could you be so mean…” This time he really couldn’t get up, a pity that there was no one around who sympathized with him, as everyone was just watching the spectacle.
Looking around, the little girl who had been with the elderly man had run off somewhere, nowhere to be seen.
“You seem good with your phone, call the emergency yourself, no one here feels sorry for you.
Remember, don’t try scamming casually anymore, or you’ll surely pay for it someday.”
Zhao Guang shook his head with a look of pity and walked away, leaving the old man sitting on the ground, doubting his life, surrounded by onlookers.
