79: Chapter 79 The Real Deal Appears

The time ticked on to 12:15 when a faint creaking sound reached his ears again. Chen Sheng immediately became alert. "This time it has to be him!"

He braced his hands on the ground, shifting from a sitting to a crouching position, and simultaneously pulled out his phone to turn on the camera.

He realized that using his phone to scout the outside situation was truly convenient.

Plus, there was a bit of a thrill that came with the voyeurism.

Soon, a man's figure appeared on the screen. The man looked very ordinary, was of average height, and dressed very plainly—the kind of person you could pass by several times and still not remember.

After the man entered the rooftop, he looked around. Once he confirmed no one was there, he walked straight to the pile of weathered bricks Chen Sheng had accidentally found earlier. He grabbed a stack, walked to the railing, and looked down at the small plaza below, a crazed and cruel smile appearing on his face.

"It's definitely him." Chen Sheng quickly pressed the record button.

The man held a brick in his hand, extended his arm over the railing, and measured the position left and right. Chen Sheng guessed he was looking for the perfect spot to throw it.

Soon, the man stopped gesturing and immediately brought over the bricks he had placed to the side.

Chen Sheng couldn't help but frown.

It was too fast.

From the moment the man entered the rooftop to preparing to throw the objects and selecting the spot, he had reached the final step in less than ten minutes.

Clearly, the man must have scouted the location beforehand; otherwise, he wouldn't be so proficient.

The man placed the stack of bricks at the chosen spot, stood by the railing holding one brick, extended his hand without hesitation, and a second later, let go, dropping the brick.

"WTF!" Chen Sheng couldn't help but shiver.

It was too sudden, too decisive!

The man lingered at the railing for a few seconds. Perhaps the brick he threw didn't land as he intended, as he scratched his hair in frustration, turned around, and walked to the stack of bricks. This time, he picked up the entire stack.

"Damn it." Chen Sheng couldn't help but curse under his breath. If this whole stack of bricks were thrown down, it would be hard to miss.

Chen Sheng gritted his teeth, propped his phone against the decorative wall to keep recording the man, and stepped out from behind the wall.

"Hey! Buddy, what are you doing!"

The sudden sound startled the man. He quickly pulled back his hand, which was halfway extended, and hurriedly placed the bricks on the ground. As he stood up, he quietly hid one brick behind his back, glared at Chen Sheng with an angry expression, and said in a hostile tone, "Mind your own business!"

"No, Buddy, you aren't thinking of doing anything drastic, are you?" Chen Sheng said, feigning a relaxed demeanor. "Buddy, there's no hurdle in this world that can't be overcome. If you have any difficulties, just talk about them. Even though we're strangers, I promise I'll help if I can. You're still young; there's really no need to jump off a building."

As he spoke, Chen Sheng slowly moved toward the man.

Upon hearing Chen Sheng say he was planning to jump, the man secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but his tone remained cold. "Not necessary. I'm not jumping off any building. Please leave; I just want to be alone for a while."

"Understood, understood!" Chen Sheng reached into his pocket, pulled out a cigarette case, took one out, and gestured toward the man. "Buddy, want a smoke?"

"I don't smoke!" Seeing that Chen Sheng wasn't leaving, a flash of malice crossed the man's eyes. He tightened his grip on the brick hidden behind his back and also began to slowly move toward Chen Sheng.

On this point, the two of them were actually in sync.

However, one was thinking about stopping the other, while the other was thinking that since he wouldn't leave, he would just have to accept his bad luck.

Killing one is murder, and killing two is also murder. Once the killing started, the count didn't really matter anymore.

On the other side, seeing the man refuse, Chen Sheng pretended to be embarrassed but inwardly disdained him as he put the cigarette case back into his pocket, taking the opportunity to grab the pepper spray he had in his pocket.

Did he really think he was offering him a smoke?

Wrong! He was just finding an excuse to take out the pepper spray.

"It's good that you don't. This stuff isn't good for you; if you can avoid it, don't smoke." Although he was making small movements behind the scenes, his outward appearance still maintained that perfectly timed anxiety.

With both moving toward each other, the distance of just over ten meters quickly narrowed to less than two. The man stared straight at Chen Sheng and asked, "What were you doing up there earlier?"

At this moment, the hand behind the man's back had tightened its grip on the brick. If Chen Sheng's answer showed the slightest sign of being improper, that would be the moment to strike.

Hearing this question, Chen Sheng laughed. "Haha, me? I was waiting for someone."

As he spoke, he deliberately leaned forward, closing the distance to the man again. He raised an eyebrow with a mischievous smirk and lowered his voice, saying, "Buddy, do you know who I'm waiting for?"

The man asked instinctively, "Waiting for whom?"

Chen Sheng, who had been watching the man closely, saw him momentarily distracted. The face that had been maintaining a fake smile instantly turned ferocious. He immediately pulled out the pepper spray he had been intentionally hiding behind his back and, before the man could react, aimed it at his eyes...

Sss-sss~~

As soon as the irritating liquid from the spray entered his eyes, the man couldn't help but scream, "Ah!"

Amidst the screams, Chen Sheng's slightly excited voice rang out, "I'm waiting for your mom!"

Suddenly attacked, the man instinctively dropped the brick and reached out to cover his eyes.

"Good chance!" Chen Sheng raised his leg and kicked.

Bang~

"Ah~" Amidst the scream, the man fell to his knees with a thud. The hands that had been trying to cover his eyes were now firmly shielding his "fragile spot."

The next second, the man collapsed onto his side on the ground, curling up like a shrimp.

"Ah~~ Ah~~"

Seeing the man protecting his crotch, Chen Sheng's eyes lit up. He immediately raised the pepper spray and aimed it at the man's eyes again.

Sss-sss~~

"Ah..." The man let out a heart-wrenching scream.

At this point, the man couldn't care about his "fragile spot" anymore. He used both hands to cover his eyes and, flushed with rage, cursed, "Ah... who the hell are you? If you've got guts, don't fight dirty. I'll kill you!"

Unfortunately, this didn't scare Chen Sheng at all; instead, it only made him more excited.

After all, who doesn't have a little bit of masochism in them?

Chen Sheng immediately raised his foot again, and the next second, his toe landed heavily on that "fragile spot."

"Ah~" Amidst the scream, the man finally learned his lesson. He split his hands, one covering his eyes and the other protecting his "fragile spot."

Chen Sheng curled his lip in disdain. Threatening him? Hah! Didn't he know that barking dogs don't bite, and biting dogs don't bark?

Pfft! That was wrong, let me start over. Didn't he know what it meant to be a man of few words but ruthless actions? That's Brother Sheng for you.

Chen Sheng didn't strike again, as doing so would change the nature of the situation. He didn't issue any threats either, because there was no need. Confirming the man had temporarily lost the ability to resist, he quickly returned to the decorative wall to pick up his phone, saved the video first, and then dialed 110.

When there's trouble, of course, you call the police.

"Hello, I want to report a crime. Someone here is throwing bricks down the building to hit people."

"I'm at the top floor of Block C, Kangsheng Office Building on XX Road. I have temporarily subdued the person, so please come quickly."

After hanging up, the man, curled up on the ground, got anxious. "Which eye of yours saw me throwing bricks? Stop spouting bullshit! Just you wait. When the police get here, I'm going to sue you. If you don't pay me a hundred thousand or eighty thousand, you can just wait to go to jail."

Saying this, the man laughed maniacally, "Hahahahaha~~"

The laughter had an inexplicably creepy feeling to it, especially with that eunuch-like voice, which instantly made goosebumps rise on Chen Sheng's arms.

Well, it's true; someone without some serious mental issues wouldn't do something like this.
