Super Soldier

At this time, Xiao Bing was in a pair of heavy shackles, alone in a cell with three bunk beds at the detention house. He was a bit surprised. Was it because of the Ye Family that Xie Lun and Chang Huai’an didn’t dare to do anything to him?

Xiao Bing stopped thinking about this. From noon till night, after he was put in the cell, nobody came to interrogate him. From this, Xiao Bing could tell that they meant to frame him.

Did Xiao Bing kill Fingerbreaker? Of course, he did.

If Chang Huai’an arrested him based on hard evidence, he wouldn’t complain even a little bit. Because that would only prove that Chang Huai’an was a good and capable policeman. However, it was clear that this was just collusion between the government and businessmen. They wanted him dead.

Be nice to me, and I’ll be nicer to you.

Offend me with one word, and I’ll punch you in the face!

Such Xiao Bing’s life motto.

The moment Chang Huai’an handcuffed Xiao Bing, he became Xiao Bing’s enemy.

Right now, Chang Huai’an was talking to Xie Lun on the phone. Xie Lun said with his teeth gnashing, “Director Chang, let him stay alive. Find a way to cripple him, keep him locked in jail for a decade, and torture him. I’m counting on you.”

Chang Huai’an sighed on purpose, said, “This is tricky.”

After hearing this, Xie Lun said with an unpleasant voice, “Director Chang, I’ve already paid you a great amount. When it’s done, you will receive the other half. Then you can go anywhere you want and enjoy the rest of your life.”

Chang Huai’an laughed and said, “You did pay me. But I want to keep my position as the director here… The tricky thing now is that Xiao Bing seems to get along well with the Ye Family. There were rumors that the second daughter of Ye Family is in a relationship with Xiao Bing. When I was at the restaurant today, Ye Xinyi warned me. You know the Ye Family’s influence in Jiang City… If I mess with them, I would have a difficult life ahead…”

Xie Lun felt a bit surprised, asked with doubt, “Are you sure? How could Xiao Bing mingle with the Ye Family?”

“There is no mistake. Can’t you find out about it yourself?”

Xie Lun knew that Chang Huai’an would never lie to him about this. Thinking of the Ye Family’s power, Xie Lun went silent – this whole thing had already gone out of his control.

Chang Huai’an sighed and said, “When I agreed to help you, I didn’t know things would become so complicated. You did offer me a lot, but if this concerns the Ye Family…”

Xie Lun knew Chang Huai’an was asking for more payment. However, in order to get revenge, he agreed without hesitation, “Director Chang, if you can cripple him, I will double the payment.”

Chang Huai’an could feel his heart thumping in his chest. Although he wanted more benefits from Xie Lun, he didn’t realize Xie Lun hated Xiao Bing so much. Xie Lun’s offer was already good enough for him, therefore he didn’t ask for more and agreed without hesitation, “Rest assured, we have a prisoner who fights well. No matter how sharp Xiao Bing is, I will destroy him in my territory.”

Xie Lun laughed viciously and said, “I’ll be waiting for your good news.”

For Xiao Bing, it was fine that they didn’t interrogate him, but it was despicable that they didn’t send dinner. “What the hell, could they be more shameless? Did they want to starve me?” Xiao Bing thought to himself.

Xiao Bing got angry and pounded on the door twice. But no one ever answered. He had no other option but to lay on the bed and deal with the hunger. At midnight, the cell door finally opened. Four strong men walked inside followed by a young man who looked silly and funny as if he were a simpleton from the countryside.

Xiao Bing didn’t pay much attention to the silly-looking man. He looked at the four big men and finally knew the reason that Chang Huai’an didn’t send him dinner. He starved him to weaken his strength so that these men could take him down with ease. “Son of a bitch, he thinks he could take me down by starving me?”

One of the men kicked the bed, causing the whole bed to shake violently and almost fall apart. This big guy surely had strength. After he finished, he said while cursing, “Fuck, wake the fuck up now!”

The other three also surrounded Xiao Bing.

“Oh, me?” Xiao Bing sat up from the bed, looking at these men with innocent eyes, and said, “It’s late now. What do you want from me?”

“What do we want from you?” They looked to each other, laughed, “Are you dumb? What do you think we are doing here in the middle of the night?”

“I have no idea.” Xiao Bing scratched his nose for a bit and said, “I guess you guys are here to give me a massage and scratch my back?”

“Fuck you. Don’t even think about it! Let’s kick his ass, brothers!”

This man came at Xiao Bing first, but Xiao Bing ducked and off-balanced him by hooking his foot. The man failed and fell on the bed with his limbs spread out. Right after, like a flash, Xiao Bing twisted the man’s arms behind him. With two cracks, his arms got dislocated. It was so painful that he screamed out loud.

The other men got stunned seeing this. Without a second thought, they shouted and started attacking Xiao Bing together. One of them first got kicked between the legs by Xiao Bing. When he bent down, Xiao Bing twisted his arms behind. And the same happened with the other two men.

In the blink of an eye, in less than a minute, the four strong men were all beaten. Their arms all got dislocated, and they couldn’t even feel their arms.

Xiao Bing jumped off the bed, grabbed up one of these men, and threw him on the floor. Then he threw the second man on top of the first man, then the third one on the second, and the fourth on the third. The four men formed a human pyramid, yelled in pain, and kept begging for mercy.

Xiao Bing clapped his hands as if nothing happened, said with a smile, “Chang Huai’an should have known better. You are no match with me. Didn’t Xie Lun tell him who I am?”

“My lord, my arms are broken… Please spare us, my lord, we don’t know Xie Lun.”

“That doesn’t matter.” Xiao Bing laughed and said, “This is a small room, and there’s no space for you to rest. Stay right where you are.”

The man who was in the bottom almost cried because the weight of the other men was so heavy that he couldn’t even breathe.

Xiao Bing didn’t bother saying anything. He was going to go back to bed but found the silly-looking man staring at him with an idiotic face. He asked, “Do you need help?”

Surprisingly, the silly-looking man nodded and said, “I do.”

“Are you hungry?”

“No.”

“Are you thirsty?”

“No.”

“Are you in love with me?”

“…”

Xiao Bing got a bit confused and said, “Then why are you looking at me with admiration like that?”

“No… No…”

“No what? For you or me? Let me tell you, I am not interested in men, especially for an idiot like you. If there’s nothing else, we should go to sleep. Damn… I am still hungry.”

“Hmm… Your name is Xiao Bing?”

Xiao Bing felt a bit surprised and said, “You know me?”

This idiot in Xiao Bing’s eyes suddenly spoke a word that made him quite stunned, “They asked me to break one of your legs. Could you stretch your leg out and let me break it?”

It was only now that Xiao Bing started paying attention to this simpleton, who looked indeed quite silly. He was around 23 years old, wearing clothes with patches, a pair of broken fabric shoes that showed his toes, and with dirt on his face. Although he was not that young, he looked like a kid. Or to say, a silly kid in the countryside who didn’t draw people’s attention… His face was round and full of stupid smiles.

It was hard to imagine such an idiotic kid would say something like that.

“Break one of my legs?”

Strangely, Xiao Bing didn’t get angry after hearing that. Maybe that’s because the young man’s look was too silly to make people feel bad. He was like one of those silly kids who got influenced by a bad guy to throw stones at others.

Sending such a silly kid, Chang Huai’an must have went crazy.

Xiao Bing asked in a curious voice, “What’s your name?”

The silly man asked in a silly voice, “Will you let me break your leg if I tell you my name?”

Xiao Bing found it both funny and annoying, said, “Tell me your name and I will think about it.”

He moved his lips a bit, got embarrassed somehow, scratched his hair and blushed.

Xiao Bing laughed helplessly. Nobody would believe a silly guy like that would want to break people’s legs like a thug.

“I couldn’t read since I was a child… But I know my name is not good. Don’t laugh at me if I tell you.”

Xiao Bing looked at him, felt quite amused, and said, “Okay, I promise not to laugh at you. Now go ahead.”

“Do you really want to know?”

“Yes, I do.”

The silly boy laughed, scratched his messy hair, said with a silly smile, “My name is Dumbass, ‘dumb’ as in ‘dumbass’, ‘ass’ as in ‘dumbass’…”

He sure sounded like a dumbass by saying this now.

Xiao Bing got a bit puzzled, and was flabbergasted. He thought something was wrong with his hearing, like a fly had gotten into his ears. He asked hurriedly, “Come again, what’s your name?”

“My name is Dumbass, ‘dumb’ as in ‘dumbass’, ‘ass’ as in ‘dumbass’. People in the countryside called me Idiot before. I didn’t like it. So they named me this.” Dumbass laughed in a silly way and said, “Some people still make jokes on me because of this name. But I like it better than Idiot. I think it’s trendy.”

Xiao Bing found it so funny that he burst out laughing.

Dumbass blushed, and said while stammering, “Can I break your leg now?”
