62: Hundred Thousand Heavenly Soldiers

Bang, bang, bang…

Amidst the deafening gongs and drums, in a moment of desperation, someone even pulled out a large megaphone and started shouting for people within the residential area.

Around Feihuang Supermarket, a huge commotion erupted.

Countless people rushed towards the warehouse.

The two burly men turned pale with fright when they saw the lights in the surrounding residential area come on.

How could this be?

The old man just roared once, and it was quiet a moment ago, but now it's noisier than daytime?

Without thinking, they knew those people were coming to catch them!

The two burly men took off running.

However, the skinny man's leg was held tightly, and no matter how hard he pulled, he couldn't free it.

What to do?

The muscular man initially wanted to save him, but seeing people already sprinting from a distance, he covered his head, ignored the skinny man, and fled as fast as he could, scrambling away.

The skinny man grew anxious, exerting all his strength, and suddenly lifted his leg upwards.

“To hell with you!”

Despite his lean build, the skinny man possessed immense brute strength.

He lifted both himself and his leg.

However, what the skinny man didn't expect was that even when he lifted and fiercely swung his leg,

The old man's arms were like two old tree roots, tightly Entanglement around him.

One could see the old man's hands, like withered branches.

As he lifted and slammed, blood flowed from the old man's mouth.

“Old man, your salary is only three thousand, why are you risking your life?”

The skinny man was anxious.

The old man gritted his teeth: “My salary is not three thousand, it’s ten thousand!”

“My wife, son, daughter-in-law, grandson, granddaughter-in-law, and granddaughter, and grandson-in-law all work at the Supermarket!”

“If you dare to burn down my Supermarket, I won’t be done with you!”

Bright red blood flowed incessantly, and the old man held on tightly, refusing to let go.

The skinny man stamped his foot in frustration.

There was no other way; he could only drag the old man while running.

He ran desperately, and the old man clung to him with all his might, even if it meant being dragged on the ground, with his face covered in wounds, he still gritted his teeth and desperately tried to hold him back.

The skinny man hardened his heart and pulled out the large pliers for picking locks from his waist.

“If you don’t let go, I’ll smash you to death!” the skinny man roared, raising the large pliers high in his hand.

Under the streetlights, the large pliers emitted a gloomy metallic sheen, making people's hearts pound.

The old man's eyes were fixed on the skinny man, completely ignoring the large pliers.

Like a bamboo rooted deep in the green mountain, unwavering, our understanding is beyond words.

With just one glance, the skinny man realized that the other party was determined to capture him!

Ah!

The skinny man went crazy!

He had done many bad things, but he had never seen such a desperate security guard.

In other companies, before he even pulled out his weapon, the security guards would run faster than anyone else.

After he pulled out his weapon, no one dared to provoke him!

Why was it different here?

Did Qian Ziyong really pay the security guards ten thousand in salary?

Ten thousand in salary could hire three strong young college students!

Ten thousand in salary, and you hire an eighty-year-old man, you're crazy!

The skinny man didn't dare to smash.

If he didn't smash, getting caught meant ten years.

If he smashed, it would be arson and murder, a crime worthy of three death sentences, and he'd be dragged out for a posthumous whipping even after death.

During this delay, several strong young men sprinted over.

“Grandpa!” a young man saw the old man covered in blood and immediately became anxious.

“Grandson, you’re here.” The old man's face showed a knowing smile, and then he closed his eyes and fell to the ground, motionless.

“Grandpa!” The young man painfully rushed forward and quickly hugged the old man.

The others nearby quickly restrained the skinny man.

“It's not my fault, I didn't do anything!” The skinny man threw the large pliers aside and very cooperatively allowed himself to be pinned to the ground.

Because a large crowd of people had already arrived from a distance.

Looking up, there were people everywhere, at least three hundred or more!

In an instant, the entire warehouse was surrounded.

The fire in the warehouse was quickly extinguished with everyone's concerted effort, causing no significant damage.

Someone had already called the police and an ambulance.

The sound of sirens rang out.

Upon hearing that something had happened at Feihuang Supermarket, ambulances, police cars, and fire trucks rushed to the scene at the fastest speed.

Four nurses and one doctor got out of the ambulance, carrying stretchers, and ran over.

They immediately examined the old man's body.

“He's gone, the person is gone!” The doctor looked at the old man's eyes; his pupils were dilated.

There was no pulse, and he had stopped breathing.

The doctor diagnosed that the patient was dead, and there was no need to take him to the hospital.

The skinny man standing by was stunned!

The ambulance arrived very quickly, in about five minutes.

How could he be gone so quickly!

He didn't even smash him with the large pliers!

“Impossible!”

“Absolutely impossible!” the skinny man cried out.

He couldn't accept this fact.

If the old man died,

He would be an arsonist and a murderer!

He didn't want to kill anyone!

How could he kill someone?

He didn't do anything!

He was wronged!

“Grandpa, if I had known, I should have just let you lie in the hospital!” The young man cried bitterly.

While crying, he said, “My grandpa has liver cancer, it’s already late stage, and the doctor said he could only live for three more months!”

“We all told Grandpa not to go to work anymore!”

“He said he liked it here and didn’t want to wait for death at home!”

“I never thought…”

“Wuwuwu…”

Upon hearing about late-stage liver cancer, everyone finally understood why the old man passed away so suddenly.

With late-stage liver cancer, the body becomes extremely weak; how could it withstand such pulling and dragging?

The police had already arrived and immediately arrested the skinny burly man.

“It’s not my fault, he was in poor health!” the skinny burly man cried out that he was wronged.

The police snorted coldly: “Didn’t you hear what the young man just said?”

“He could still live for three months!”

“If it weren’t for you, how would the old man have died!”

“If it’s not your fault, then whose fault is it?”

“Arson and murder, prepare to eat peanuts!”

“Confess honestly, reveal the mastermind and your accomplices, and you still have a chance to atone for your crimes and live!”

The skinny burly man’s mentality collapsed on the spot when he heard about eating peanuts.

He still had several million in his hand!

He didn't want to die.

Most importantly, Yamazumi Arimatsu would give him one million every year if he went to jail.

But what about eating peanuts?

If he was dead, even a hundred million wouldn't help.

Might as well burn it all for him!

He didn't want to die!

“I’ll tell, I’ll confess everything.”

“It was Yamazumi Arimatsu, the owner of Yongnian Supermarket; he instructed me to do it, and I even have a recording…”

The skinny burly man had already collapsed, answering whatever was asked.

He didn't want to kill anyone!

He only sought wealth; who would want to take a life if they didn’t want to live?

To save his life, the skinny burly man held nothing back.

Upon learning that it was the owner of Yongnian Supermarket, everyone was instantly furious.

“They can’t compete fairly, so they resort to such underhanded tactics, they deserve to die!” countless people cursed.

Some even picked up sticks and headed straight for Yongnian Supermarket.

It was Yamazumi Arimatsu who instructed it; he is the principal offender, and he absolutely cannot be allowed to escape!

Something happened at Feihuang Supermarket; it was definitely a shocking event.

And a gangster had escaped, so everyone called their friends, and countless people got out of bed in the middle of the night.

Someone was half-asleep and saw her husband get up, and immediately became furious.

“Why are you getting up in the middle of the night, are you going to find some wild cat outside?”

“Tell me!”

“Don’t you like me anymore?”

Without time to explain, the man said urgently, “Something happened at Feihuang Supermarket, it was set on fire by the owner of Yongnian Supermarket!”

Hearing this, the woman was shocked: “Our Supermarket was set on fire!”

“Then why are you still dawdling!”

“No, I’m going myself!”

In just one hour, at 1 AM, one hundred thousand people were mobilized, a sea of humanity, searching everywhere for Yamazumi Arimatsu and the muscular burly man!
