Chapter 534: Is This Even Human?
The two arrived on the highway.
Unfortunately, the car Qin Wuyao and her bodyguards had arrived in was driven away by the four bodyguards.
"How did you find bodyguards like that? They're too irresponsible," Lu Ran said, exasperated.
He was too lazy to walk.
Although he wasn't tired, it was too much of a hassle!
Who knew how long it would take to get to the city.
"I didn't expect this either," Qin Wuyao said helplessly.
"Call your dad? Ask him to send someone to pick us up?" Lu Ran suggested.
"I'd like to, but my phone was left in the car, and they drove off with it," Qin Wuyao said with a helpless shrug.
Uh...
"Where's your phone?" Qin Wuyao asked.
"I... um, lost it," Lu Ran said casually.
"It looks like you've had a tough few days. Are you a backpacker? Did you get lost in the mountains?" Qin Wuyao asked.
"Pretty much. I did get lost," Lu Ran said helplessly.
"I never thought someone like you would be among my elementary school classmates. You're amazing. You look so frail, but you can directly throw a large black bear flying," Qin Wuyao said, recalling the thrilling scene from earlier.
"I just like to exercise normally. Let's go then; we'll have to walk," Lu Ran suggested.
What else could they do? They could only walk back.
So.
The two walked together along the highway, hoping to get lucky and find a ride.
Their luck was pretty good.
There were indeed rides available.
According to Qin Wuyao, this road was rarely used. It was a newly developed road, and since it hadn't yet connected to the mountains, not many cars passed through.
Occasionally, people came to camp.
A black sedan stopped beside them.
But when the car door opened, two young men with dyed yellow hair got out.
They looked like hooligans.
"Can you give us a ride to the city?" Qin Wuyao asked first.
The two yellow-haired men exchanged glances, sizing up Qin Wuyao.
Then they looked at Lu Ran.
One of the yellow-haired men said, "Yes, five hundred."
"That expensive!" Qin Wuyao exclaimed in surprise.
"This is deep in the mountains, five hundred is already very cheap, little sister," the yellow-haired man said.
"Okay, five hundred it is," Qin Wuyao was only surprised by the fare. Five hundred was indeed expensive, but it was nothing to her.
"Alright, hand over the money," the yellow-haired man held out a hand.
"My wallet isn't on me," Qin Wuyao instinctively patted her pocket, but then her face fell.
It was the same; it was in the car!
"Then you can scan a QR code, or transfer the money," the yellow-haired man said.
"My phone isn't on me either, but don't worry, once we get to the city, I'll give it to you immediately," Qin Wuyao promised.
"Little sister, are you kidding us? Once you're back in the car, would you still be willing to pay this five hundred yuan fare?" the yellow-haired man said with a laugh.
Then.
He glanced at Lu Ran, then stared at Qin Wuyao again.
He said, "How about this? We'll waive the fare."
Qin Wuyao heard this and hadn't even had time to be happy.
The yellow-haired man continued, "But we can only give you a ride. Your boyfriend is dressed in rags, and our car is new; we can't let it get dirty."
The implication was that they would only take Qin Wuyao, and Lu Ran was out of the question.
And they wouldn't charge a fare either.
Wasn't this 'Sima Zhao's heart, known to all passers-by'?
"No, that won't do. We're going back together," Qin Wuyao immediately shook her head.
She wasn't a fool, of course.
She naturally saw through the intentions of these two yellow-haired men and certainly wouldn't get into their car alone.
"How about this? I won't take the car. Can I borrow your phone to make a call? I'll have my dad send someone to pick me up," Qin Wuyao mused.
"Sorry, our phones are out of battery," the two yellow-haired men said knowingly.
They clearly intended to take advantage of Qin Wuyao.
In fact, when they looked at Qin Wuyao and Lu Ran, their eyes already held a hint of menace.
At this moment.
Lu Ran, who was standing by, couldn't wait any longer.
"Alright, alright, what are you dragging your feet for, Qin Wuyao? Can't you see what these two scoundrels are up to? Why are you wasting words with them?" Lu Ran said, exasperated.
He wasn't one to procrastinate.
Originally, he thought that since this was their world, he would just go with the flow.
But as a result, these two yellow-haired men were getting too brazen.
Lu Ran couldn't tolerate it anymore.
"Hey, kid, what did you say? Believe it or not, my brother and I will make sure you don't leave this place alive today? This place is sparsely populated; even if we kill you here, no one will ever know!" the yellow-haired man said with a sinister grin, looking at Lu Ran.
Furthermore.
The two even pulled out their butterfly knives and began performing tricks with them.
It was clear that they had been practicing their butterfly knife skills for more than a day or two.
Lu Ran pursed his lips.
He walked straight up to them.
With one hand, he directly took the butterfly knives from the hands of the two yellow-haired men.
That's right, he took them. The two yellow-haired men hadn't even reacted before the knives in their hands were gone.
Wait, is this right?
Is this guy that fierce?
Why doesn't he seem scared at all, but instead just comes up and snatches the knives?
The two yellow-haired men were immediately about to explode.
But then.
They saw Lu Ran clench the two butterfly knives in his hand and twist them.
Click, click, click...
The two hardened steel butterfly knives were directly crumpled into a ball by Lu Ran, like modeling clay.
The two yellow-haired men were dumbfounded.
If they hadn't bought them themselves, they would have suspected the knives were made of paper.
"You, you, you..." the yellow-haired man's words were already stammering.
Can a human being even do that?
Slap~
Lu Ran gave him a big slap.
He casually said, "What 'you'? Get lost. This car, we're confiscating it."
Huh?
The two yellow-haired men were completely at a loss now.
"You don't agree? Then consider whether your fists or your heads are as hard as this toy knife you were just playing with. I can also twist your heads for you," Lu Ran said casually.
The two yellow-haired men instantly shut up.
Lu Ran then walked forward on his own accord, pulling open the car door with one hand.
But because he didn't control his strength well.
Bang!
The car door was directly pulled off by Lu Ran and held in his hand.
Uh...
Lu Ran looked at the two yellow-haired men awkwardly.
"It's fine! Brother! Full insurance!" the yellow-haired man quickly said.
"That's good. Qin Wuyao, get in the car," Lu Ran said to Qin Wuyao.
Qin Wuyao was still dazed.
She got into the car on her own.
Lu Ran then reattached the car door.
To prevent the car door from falling off again, Lu Ran squeezed the metal around the door, wedging it in place.
The two yellow-haired men were even more stunned.
Who exactly was this young man?
Is this even human?
Next.
Lu Ran carefully opened the other car door. This time he was very careful, and the door wasn't pulled off. Lu Ran got into the car.
Then he and Qin Wuyao stared at each other.
"Why are you sitting in the back? Drive," Qin Wuyao said instinctively.
"I don't know how to," Lu Ran said matter-of-factly.
Uh...
Qin Wuyao looked at the two yellow-haired men and said, "You two, come and drive? Don't worry, I'll compensate for the car's damage."
