Chapter 005: The Unfortunate Child

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

After taking out his phone, Lu Guangchen shot a fierce glance at Xu Yu once more, then forced a smile and said, "Hello, Brother Li, it's me, Guangchen. Hehe, I have a small matter that I need to trouble you with..."

Hey, it's time to contact that guy. Let's first see what's inside. With a light chuckle, Lu Guangchen reached into his pocket, but unexpectedly, as soon as he touched it, his expression changed drastically. It's gone?

Although those methods initially exhibited a noticeable stiffness when they first integrated into his body, after just a few encounters, he surprisingly discovered that he had almost completely mastered that ability. He even had a sense that, even if he had not shouted out loud just now, but instead faced the thief head-on, he would still be able to defeat the opponent in this regard.

He merely extracted a trace of spiritual energy from a fried dough stick, and surprisingly, this energy could even integrate the actions of others while they were stealing into his own body This is truly exaggerated and terrifying

On the identity card, there is a beautiful woman with the surname Luo, born in 1987, from Linzhou.

It was not until she had walked a considerable distance that a delicate wallet suddenly appeared in Xu Yu's right palm, a wallet that was the very item obtained by Lu Guangchen during his first theft

In the initial skirmish, he was merely adapting quickly to this sudden ability. Once he had adjusted, during the second encounter, he pecked at the opponent's right hand and simultaneously slipped his own hand into the opponent's pocket, retrieving the wallet.

After finishing the call with a smile, Lu Guangchen finally put away his phone and looked ahead with a strange expression. This time, he was determined to leave that guy with a lifelong unforgettable memory

After a hasty escape from the area, he began to wholeheartedly search for the other party's whereabouts nearby. Of course, if he relied solely on himself, he would not have found them so quickly. However, having been in Ningcheng for such a long time, he was certainly not alone. Moreover, he had a vivid memory of that guy's appearance, so he soon discovered the location of the other party.

Once the call was connected, a slightly dry voice came through directly, saying, "Hello?"

"Hehe, Brother Li, Brother Yang, you have no idea, that guy is so insidious, I really had no choice." After being tapped on the shoulder, Lu Guangchen showed no sign of hesitation and immediately began to explain with a smile. Then, he pointed to the location of Xu Yu and said, "That's the guy. After this incident, I will definitely thank Brother Li and Brother Yang properly."

With a glare that seemed to pierce through, Lu Guangchen could no longer care about anything else. He shouted in anger and swiftly darted into the crowd.

This figure is none other than Lu Guangchen, who had just managed to escape a moment ago

After catching the thief off guard, Xu Yu suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of relief in her heart, as if the heavy stone that had been pressing down on her was finally beginning to loosen.

Xu Yu was not surprised by this; she simply smiled and chatted with the other party on the phone for a few moments before quietly waiting.

Regardless of the circumstances, he merely smiled faintly and directly walked out along the crowd when others were blocking the way towards the opponent

Taking this wallet, he certainly did not intend to keep it for himself; he merely wanted to see what was inside. If it was unimportant, he would not bother with it and would simply discard it. However, if it was important, it would be better to return it to the owner as soon as possible

I am at the entrance of the Changyu Hotel, where are you?" Xu Yu glanced back and reported the location

Not long ago, the embarrassment he experienced truly filled him with rage, and he resolved in his heart that he would not easily let Xu Yu off the hook, as that fellow was simply too detestable.

You wait for me, kid

Even if that is merely a feeling, it is still rather astonishing

Upon seeing this, Xu Yu couldn't help but gasp in shock. This fellow must have suffered significant losses. Not to mention anything else, losing one's identification card is ultimately a troublesome matter

Because what he integrates is not only the methods used by thieves during their acts, but also countless images and fragments related to these techniques from memories of various films and television shows

After all, he is searching for a target, and it is not arbitrary. If he can find one, it is still better to try to find it. It should be noted that at that time, in order to escape, he also chose to flee to remote places. If luck is on his side, there is still a chance.

Otherwise, he would not have heartlessly shouted "Thief!" when the other party made their third move.

I found a wallet, inside it was your ID card and a business card. Xu Yu chuckled lightly, clarifying her intention

What exactly is that strange fusion ability

In that brief struggle with the picture book, Xu Yu felt not only that his hands had become more agile, but also that other aspects of his body, such as strength and speed, seemed to have improved, which was what truly astonished him

In the midst of laughter, Xu Yu remained completely unaware that, just dozens of meters away, two malevolent gazes were subtly lingering nearby, their eyes filled with a vengeful intent that seemed as if they wished to strip him of everything.

Xu Yu's recent confrontation was certainly not merely about pride or resorting to theft against a stranger; rather, from the very beginning, he had set his sights on the other party.

In that moment, Xu Yu also deeply felt the intense resentment from the other person's eyes

Both police officers chuckled lightly and nodded in unison upon hearing this. After glancing at Xu Yu, they smiled again, patted Lu Guangchen on the shoulder, and then stepped forward.

However, amidst the joy of his mood, what troubled him the most were still confusion and shock

Upon seeing this, Lü Guangchen finally smiled wholeheartedly. He believed that once that fellow entered, he would surely receive the best hospitality

However, this young man usually shows them quite a bit of filial piety, so this matter is really not significant at all

After some thought, he took out his phone and dialed the number

"Are you Luo Xinying?" Although the other party's voice was somewhat hoarse, it exuded a lazy charm that was more captivating. This charm was not something the other person deliberately affected; rather, it was natural and unpretentious. In an instant, just a single utterance stirred a wave of emotion in Xu Yu's heart, as if some forbidden desire was trying to surge upward. Realizing this unusual feeling, Xu Yu was taken aback and hurriedly suppressed the turmoil, responding with a question.

Upon recalling these matters, Lü Guangchen was once again filled with rage, wishing he could directly tear Xu Yu apart. However, he quickly turned around and hurried back along the path he had come.

While waiting, two men in police uniforms quickly arrived at the location where Lu Guangchen was. Subsequently, one of them, a tall young man with a rather fierce appearance, approached Lu Guangchen with a broad smile and gave him a hearty slap on the shoulder, saying, "I say, Lu, where is that guy? You, of all people, fell for this kind of trick? Haha..."

After all, Xu Yu's current location is inherently quite conspicuous

"Tsk tsk, aren't you supposed to be the fastest hand in Ningcheng?" Another police officer also looked at Lu Guangchen with a smile.

What on earth is going on? The effects of this spiritual energy are simply too exaggerated! With an expression of incredulous confusion in her eyes, Xu Yu ultimately could not understand, no matter how she thought about it. She finally let out a sigh and then opened the wallet to take a look.

one identity card, several bank cards, plus over one thousand in cash, and a few business cards

He is well aware that many of the segments in films and television are the result of technical editing, which is extremely difficult to achieve in reality. However, just now, he actually felt that he seemed to possess the ability to execute many of the techniques involved...

This fellow is nothing but a pickpocket, yet he even called the police to catch other thieves? It is truly bizarre.

Suddenly pausing in place, Lü Guangchen first cast a sharp glance at Xu Yu, who was several dozen meters away, and then shook his head decisively. It couldn't be him. That guy indeed had some skills, but at that time, he couldn't possibly have had the ability to take his belongings while engaging in a fight with him. He simply did not believe that anyone could be so much stronger than him.

"Alright, I will head over right away, thank you so much..." The other party remained filled with excitement and gratitude.

"It is I, who are you?" The person across seemed to pause for a moment before continuing to ask.

Soon, everything in the wallet clearly came into view for Xu Yu

Ah! Where are you? Thank you so much! ... This sentence immediately surprised the other party, filling them with excitement.

However, at the very moment before leaving, Lu Guangchen's gaze towards Xu Yu was filled with extreme hostility. In his heart, he resolutely made up his mind once again: if he could retrieve that wallet, it would be fine; if not, he would definitely hold that unfortunate child accountable for everything.

It was only at this moment that he had the thought, suddenly recalling the wallet he had received earlier

"Goodness, after pulling a fast one on me, he still dares to show up around here?" At the bus stop in front of the hotel, an ordinary-looking man muttered resentfully, then directly took out his phone.

That is not the other party, which can only indicate that he accidentally dropped it during his escape earlier, after all, it was too chaotic at that time and he was too nervous

Xu Yu quickly found the other party's business card among several cards
