Luo Shu suddenly realized that at some point, he almost wanted to describe their little captain with the word "shrewd."
Even though Luo Xiao Le usually kept a low profile, she was actually incredibly cunning! In just a short while, she had figured out everything she needed to.
"Alright, disperse, disperse. Go do what you need to do~" Luo Xiao Le said with a wave, accepting the situation.
"Once these few days pass, I'll remember who it was~"
...
Watching the heated discussions about Luo Xiao Le on the forum.
Inside a sponsored room next to the humble eatery, Cheng Miao had regained his former glamorous appearance. The champagne in his hand exuded an enticing aroma. The high-end furniture and appliances fully equipped in the room, along with a whole cabinet of red wine, stood in stark contrast to the dilapidated old neighborhood.
"If I hadn't set up a master switch for the spatial abilities at the pharmaceutical factory, I wouldn't have been able to have them teleport so much stuff over so quickly."
Swallowing a mouthful of smooth champagne, Cheng Miao let out a satisfied hum, "This is what life is meant to be!"
The subordinates beside him dared not breathe, silently watching him live an extremely nouveau riche and luxurious life, unable to help but swallow.
"Oh?" Cheng Miao raised an eyebrow. "Come, come, have a couple of drinks yourselves?"
"We wouldn't dare, Boss~"
"Go, share that bottle of red wine." Cheng Miao was in a good mood. "If it weren't for you guys working overtime to get the people at that pharmaceutical factory replaced with our gang members and setting up the spatial switch, I wouldn't be able to drink this so quickly. Go on, I said you can drink, so drink!"
"Yes... Yes!" The others happily went to open the red wine, licking their lips with anticipation. While drinking, they flattered Cheng Miao.
"Boss, you're truly a genius! So, the spatial stations we set up in a few places within the base during the day are like courier stations. As long as we're at a station, our spatial ability users can use their skills in Luocheng Base without limit?"
"Your kid has high comprehension!" Cheng Miao praised, patting the back of his head.
"Then why set up a spatial switch? Why not just set up stations directly?"
"Each station requires the energy from an ability user's energy sphere, which is too draining. Setting up a master switch, with the energy sphere placed there, is equivalent to the main power source. It's much more convenient!"
"Boss! Brilliant! Truly brilliant!" Everyone's thumbs were practically reaching for the sky.
"Damn it, if that bean sprout hadn't disrupted my plan at the time and hijacked those ability users, we could have collected more energy spheres!" Cheng Miao's eyes flashed with ferocity. "I still can't swallow this insult!"
With that, he dialed the secret communicator Zhou Kaifeng had given him.
"What is it?" Zhou Kaifeng's voice came through.
"That little bean sprout, besides freezing up when in danger, what other weaknesses does she have?" Cheng Miao, a bit drunk, asked abruptly.
"What are you asking this for! Didn't I tell you not to contact me without urgent matters?" Zhou Kaifeng's voice held a hint of anger.
"Do you really think guiding public opinion can ruin that little bean sprout's reputation?" Cheng Miao sneered.
"Of course not. It's just to teach her a small lesson, and incidentally, tarnish my father's reputation." Zhou Kaifeng calmed down.
"What do you want to do to her?"
Cheng Miao's smile was extremely arrogant, "Of course, I want to get rid of her."
Zhou Kaifeng was silent for three seconds. He knew very well that what Cheng Miao said would never be a simple end. It was likely to be inhumane torture. But what did it matter? It suited him perfectly. He had long disliked that bean sprout. His father favored Luo Xiao Le too much!
"Reliable information suggests that every bone in her body seems to be in bad condition, especially her wrists. Besides arthritis, she has several severe fractures. She's basically immobile now." His cousin, Zhou He, had given him key information.
"Just you watch, hehehe..." In Cheng Miao's villainous laughter, the call was hung up.
...
"Ah—" Luo Xiao Le stretched with a big yawn.
"Crack!" A crisp sound echoed.
"!!!"
"Sis, what happened?" Lin Xia rushed over in a panic, looking at Luo Xiao Le, who was standing still with her body bent at a strange angle.
"...I think I sprained it..." she said, on the verge of tears.
"Your bone is broken!!" Pi Jia Jia was speechless. Rushing over to diagnose her, she looked at Luo Xiao Le in shock. Her bones were too brittle now... If this continued... She was really close to death!
Everyone's gaze towards Luo Xiao Le instantly became worried. Surrounded by such looks, Luo Xiao Le felt immense pressure!
"Don't... Don't be like this, everyone! I can heal myself! I'll be better right away! Believe me!"
Others: "..." Believe you, that's wishful thinking!
"Sigh..." Sighs echoed one after another.
"This won't do... I'll go ask other healers in Luocheng Base." Mo Chen's brow furrowed intensely, and he was about to rush out.
Luo Xiao Le, still bent over, quickly grabbed him.
"Crack," another sound.
"Oww... My wrist..." Luo Xiao Le used too much force, and her wrist also broke...
Mo Chen quickly retracted his strength and retreated again.
"Are you alright! Is your hand okay! Let me see!" He was flustered for the first time.
"To experience Mo Chen asking the soul-stirring triple question in my lifetime..."
"I must be seeing things..." Others began to tut-tut.
"Alright, stop fooling around!" Luo Xiao Le gritted out the words through the pain. "Help me up, I can still..."
"Still what! You lie down properly!" Luo Shu pushed her again.
"Crack..." Luo Xiao Le looked at her ankle: "..." The "old six" were going to be the death of her!
"Help me up!!" Luo Xiao Le finally roared! Seeing Luo Xiao Le like this for the first time, the others were stunned and no longer dared to move recklessly, looking at each other.
"Someone go and trade this pile of weapons. Quickly."
"I know you're worried about me. Don't worry, I promise you, once these weapons are sold, I'll show you a me free from pain upon my return." She began to smile.
These words were utterly fantastic. How could selling weapons make her body better? But her smile was too resolute, as if imbued with a magical power.
"Believe me." Her voice was firm.
Mo Chen's gaze deepened. No matter what, his first principle was always to believe her. He immediately took the weapons beside Luo Xiao Le. With a swift stride, he darted out of the villa again!
