Pale Blue Inquiry

Chapter 286 - 286 285 Blame Yourself for Provoking Me


286: Chapter 285: Blame Yourself for Provoking Me 286: Chapter 285: Blame Yourself for Provoking Me “What exactly have you done to us?” The burly man’s face turned pale with shock as he realized he had greatly underestimated the person before him.


Why couldn’t his body move?


What kind of technique was this, could it possibly be the Acupoint Sealing from martial arts TV shows?


Impossible, impossible, such things couldn’t possibly exist in reality.


But he really couldn’t move his body at all, unable to muster any strength throughout his body, as if all four limbs weren’t his own, feeling incredibly strange.


This burly man was still able to speak, while Xiaolang and Xiaose had lost even their ability to speak.


In less than the time for two breaths, all four of them were put down by the opponent, which stirred a tempest of shock and awe in the burly man’s heart.


After mingling in the underworld for so many years, he had never encountered someone who could instill such fear and dread in him, and Tangyu was definitely the first.


“Nothing much, just a little trick, sealing some of your acupoints,” said Tangyu, his tone light and dismissive, as if it were as simple and effortless as drinking water.


Acupoint Sealing?


The burly man was even more confused, what kind of sorcery was this, and how had he never heard of it before?


Damn it, he hadn’t expected his boat to capsize in this gutter.


“Brother, we were wrong about what happened just now.


We’re all from the streets, so how about we settle this according to the rules of the underworld?” The burly man was indeed a cunning figure, and now naturally understood his situation, immediately lowering his stance with a tone that was not without pleading and admitting defeat.


Fighting and killing were normal on the streets; the losing party would typically just pay some money and lose some face, and it was rare for things to escalate to blade-meeting-blade hostility.


To survive in the underworld, you need to be able to deal with both ghosts and humans.


“Don’t get cozy with me.


I’m not your brother, and I’m not part of the underworld.


Do I look like a pure and kind person like me could be the same as you ruffians?


Are you insulting me?” Tangyu retorted.


The burly man’s eyebrows furrowed.


Clearly, the other party was impervious to soft approaches, making it difficult to resolve the situation when facing such a thorny individual.


“Fine, then you call the shots on how to solve this matter.


We lost and will admit defeat.


When you’re out in the underworld, you definitely need to keep your shield up.


It’s my bad luck to have offended you.


Name your price,” the burly man blurted out.


“Hmph.” Tangyu’s expression turned cold as he snorted, “Your lives may have a price, but our dignity is priceless.


You’ve touched my reverse scale; do you think I would let you off just for some dirty money?


I forgot to tell you, I don’t even consider a few million significant.


When you make a mistake, you must pay a fitting price.


For this matter, you must pay the ultimate price.


You only have yourself to blame for crossing me.”


The burly man’s face turned grim as he suddenly processed the scale of his predicament.


He had initially planned to settle the matter by compensating a few tens of thousands at most, but the young man had shot straight to demanding millions.


Millions, he couldn’t afford to pay it even if he wanted to, and he wouldn’t empty all his assets to do so.


What’s the point of his life in the underworld if not to make money?


But before he could ponder further, his heart skipped a beat as a piercing sense of danger stabbed at him.


“Bang!”


Accompanied by the sound of something shattering, the burly man was in such pain that he opened his mouth to scream, but before he could, a box was forcefully stuffed into his mouth, tearing the corners and drawing blood.


This box, shockingly, was that box of condoms.


The pain made the muscles in the burly man’s face twitch incessantly, and veins popped on his temple as he looked at Tangyu with murderous eyes.


Tangyu’s foot had not held back in the slightest, brutally smashing the burly man’s genitals.


Such an injury was undoubtedly fatal for a man.


“Dirty things always disgust people and shouldn’t remain in this world,” said Tangyu, his face showing no change, the ruthlessness in his eyes making him seem like a demon in the eyes of the burly man.


He couldn’t fathom how such a seemingly ordinary young man could be so cruel in his methods.


Seeing this, Song Qingyu simply turned away, unable to bear the sight.


With her temperament, she had wanted to break the third legs of those men herself, but with Tangyu taking action, she naturally would not stop him.


Such people needed a harsh lesson; otherwise, they would continue to harm more people.


Death was not too great a punishment for them.


“Bang!”


Tangyu’s face was devoid of any human emotion, numb like the Grim Reaper as he kicked brutally once again into the burly man’s groin, causing the sound of bones breaking.


The intense pain almost made the burly man pass out, but since he couldn’t move his body, he could only endure the excruciating agony descending upon him.


“This kick is for Shanshan.”


“Bang!”


“This kick is for Captain Song.”


“Bang!


Bang!” These two kicks are mine.


You dared to bully not just my woman, but the women around me; even two kicks are too lenient for you.


With such ruthless kicks, the burly man felt as if his pelvis was shattered, the pain rendering him numb.


His face, ghostly pale mixed with streaks of black, made clear the realization that he might forever lose his manhood, a fate more agonizing than death.


A lascivious man stripped of his tools of lechery would find his life meaningless.


Tangyu did not want to resort to such extreme measures, but these four had provoked his wrath, and he wouldn’t show mercy.


He was usually very gentle, but his reverse scale must not be touched, otherwise, he would become more terrifying than the Grim Reaper himself.


“Now, can you answer some questions for me?” Tangyu asked, looking at the gruesomely battered burly man.


The burly man looked at Tangyu as if he were seeing the Grim Reaper himself.


“The nails on the road were scattered by you guys, weren’t they?” Tangyu asked.


The burly man hesitated for a moment, then squeezed out a word, “Yes.”


“Where can I get the car fixed?


You have a business card, right?” Tangyu asked again.


“Yes.”


“Alright, having a business card is enough.


I assume you’ll be paying for our repair costs.”


Tangyu spoke coldly, and without waiting for the burly man to respond, he pulled a bulging wallet from the man’s pocket.


Inside was a stack of Red Banknotes, roughly amounting to seven or eight thousand.


Disinterested in the change, Tangyu pulled out all the Red Banknotes, then put the wallet back in the burly man’s pocket, saying, “We can’t stay here anymore.


You definitely have to refund the thousand bucks, right?


The meal earlier was terrible, two hundred also need to be refunded, right?


The rest will cover the repair costs.


As for compensation for emotional distress, you can’t afford it, so I’ll collect it myself.


I remember somebody mentioned ‘seven times a night,’ right?


Well, then, I’ll kick you seven more times.”


Hearing Tangyu’s words, the burly man felt like dying.


Another seven kicks, wouldn’t he be crippled?


“Thump!”


Another heavy kick landed on the burly man’s groin, and after twitching for a while, he finally passed out, his large body collapsing.


Though Song Qingyu didn’t see what was happening, standing in front of the window, her heart clenched repeatedly.


She had never encountered such a brutal situation before, and it was even more disturbing that it involved Tangyu.


As an outstanding policewoman, she believed in equality for everyone in her eyes, even if the other party was a gangster who had done countless evil deeds.


No matter how loathsome they were, she would treat them the same.


With evidence, she would surely arrest them to face legal penalties.


Without evidence, she would protect their safety.


But now, her heart was also in turmoil, and she found herself unable to stop Tangyu.


She also had some doubts in her heart; by ignoring the situation, was she no longer worthy of calling herself a good policewoman?


After dealing with the burly man, Tangyu approached Xiao Lang and Xiao Se, both of whom were already drenched in cold sweat, fear evident on their faces as they watched Tangyu with a complex expression, begging for mercy.


But would Tangyu let them go?


Seeing the hint of a smile on Tangyu’s lips, both felt they were seeing the Grim Reaper’s smile, their bodies suddenly turning ice cold.


“It was you who mentioned ‘seven times a night’, right?


I’ll oblige you then; seven kicks each,” Tangyu said coldly.


“Thump!”


“Thump!”


The sound made Song Qingyu feel unbearable at times, and she nearly intervened several times but swallowed her words as if stopped by a peculiar force.


Since they mentioned ‘seven times a night’, he let them have it; seven kicks each, and Tangyu was willing to let them go only after that.


Of course, both had already honorably passed out.


These three were doomed to never be men again in their lives.


When Tangyu struck, he made sure they had no chance of recovery.


Forget their manhood, they wouldn’t even be able to walk for the rest of their lives.


Only after settling it with these three did Tangyu’s anger slightly subside.


He then approached the toenail clipper woman; just looking at her face made him want to vomit.


Thinking back on the toenail clipper woman’s earlier words made Tangyu want to vomit even more, even harboring thoughts of killing to silence her.


He, a handsome man of great stature, was sexually harassed by an old woman in such a manner, which was utterly intolerable.


“It’s the first time someone has made me so disgusted.


I need to fix your face or it’ll haunt me for a long time,” Tangyu said before stomping heavily on the toenail clipper woman’s face.


One stomp, two stomps, many stomps.


Each stomp scattered flesh and blood, and soon the toenail clipper woman’s face was a bloody mess, unrecognizable even to ghosts, let alone her own parents.


“Much better now,” Tangyu said as he dusted his hands off, his face still void of much emotion, as if he hadn’t punished four people but just four animals; no, even animals wouldn’t be treated this harshly.


“Captain Song, we shouldn’t stay here long; let’s go,” Tangyu said to Song Qingyu at the window, casually taking a car key from the burly man’s waist.


Since the car was broken, they had to figure something else out.


“Hmm,” Song Qingyu nodded, finally turning around, her gaze inadvertently sweeping over the four on the ground.


The horrific scene naturally deeply shook her, causing Liu Mei’s brows to frown deeply.


Looking at the face peel-off-like condition of the toenail clipper woman was shocking.


Song Qingyu looked at Tangyu, who had returned to his usual demeanor, as if nothing had occurred.


Her view of Tangyu was reevaluated.


It seemed she had previously underestimated this man.


Beneath his gentle and honest exterior lay a heart more terrifying than the Grim Reaper’s.


The simultaneous presence of two such contrasting demeanors in one person was astonishing.
