Chapter 221: Uniform, Showdown with Deng Hai

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Motherfucker!”

Deng Hai’s expression changed, but in this moment, he turned ruthless. When he saw Wang Ye pouncing towards him, he clenched his teeth and cursed.

Then, he ceased retreating and thrust his saber at Wang Ye.

In this moment, he no longer pondered whether escape was possible or if he’d reunite with his girlfriend after capture.

He had been driven to a point where such thoughts were inconceivable.

The blade lunged towards Wang Ye without a specific target, as if Deng Hai had never learned the art of bare-handed combat.

His training as a novice assassin had been brief, incomparable to Wang Ye’s expertise. For now, he simply thrust the blade straight at Wang Ye.

Uh-huh ~”

However, the next moment left him stunned.

The hand gripping the knife was seized, and as he saw Wang Ye approaching, he attempted a counterattack with his left hand.

Yet, he immediately felt a sharp pain in his neck and the left side of his head. His vision blurred, and he crashed to the ground.

Deng Hai had also trained in the 13th move of Military Boxing, the Upward Step and Elbow Smash.

With a single move, as Wang Ye closed in on him, he seized Deng Hai’s hand and delivered a powerful elbow strike to the left side of his head, sending him sprawling to the ground.

As Deng Hai lay there, it felt as though his thoughts had come to a standstill.

Shaking his head, he regained his senses. The dagger that had been in his hand now lay several meters away.

He found himself on the ground, with Wang Ye gripping him firmly with one hand and pressing his knee against his back.

“All…”

Furious, Deng Hai struggled, his free left hand still attempting to grab hold of Wang Ye.

However, in the next second, his left hand was also seized.

His hands were bound behind his back, and his body was pressed against the ground. He couldn’t break free, even if he tried.

“Don’t move!” Wang Ye commanded in a hushed tone.

“Fuck you bastard, release me if you dare!”

Deng Hai was far from convinced. In fact, he had never been convinced by Wang Ye since the day they had their falling out.

“Someone, come and help!”

At this point, Wang Ye called out to the onlookers who had gathered from dozens of meters away upon witnessing the commotion.

He completely ignored Deng Hai.

Turning his head towards the students who had gathered several dozen meters away to watch the commotion after witnessing the situation, he shouted at them.

No one came over. They were still unable to grasp the situation and couldn’t casually approach.

Wang Ye was momentarily speechless.

He lowered his gaze to Deng Hai, who was still struggling beneath him. In a low voice, he warned, “It’s pointless. I’ll give you one last chance. Cooperate, and I’ll let you see your girlfriend later.

Otherwise, I’ll keep you pinned like this until the commander arrives, and then you’ll be taken away by us!”

This threat seemed to hit a nerve in Deng Hai.

His face, pressed against the ground, turned to look at Wang Ye. A raspy voice escaped his throat, “You promise?”

“I promise,” Wang Ye affirmed.

He decided to allow Deng Hai to meet his girlfriend.

Allowing him to see his girlfriend wasn’t a big deal.

Allowing him to do so in captivity would also allow him to give up on that thought.

In the following moment, Wang Ye felt Deng Hai’s body go limp.

He lay motionless on the ground, his hands no longer struggling.

“This is your final chance. If you attempt to flee again, I won’t offer you another opportunity later!”

As Wang Ye spoke, he secured Deng Hai’s bound hands with one hand and swiftly retrieved a zip tie from his pocket with the other.

Wang Ye and the others didn’t have any handcuffs when they came out, but the third squad leader had brought a few bags with him, and they were given one each on the train.

The one Wang Ye got now came in handy.

“Can you not tie me up? I won’t try to escape,” Deng Hai pleaded.

He stopped struggling and turned his face toward the ground, speaking calmly.

It seemed as though he had genuinely resigned himself to his fate.

However, Wang Ye paid him no mind.

With one end of the zip tie in his mouth, he firmly held his hands with one hand and deftly secured the zip tie around them with the other, starting to bind them.

Not tie him up?

What was Deng Hai talking about? How could he not secure him? If Deng Hai was unaware of his girlfriend’s involvement, how could he not run?

Wang Ye dared to suggest that not tying him up would be crazy. In addition to Deng Hai, who was naturally suspicious, any honest person in such a situation would likely become frantic.

If he left him unbound, what if he created more trouble?

Wang Ye completed the task of tying his hands swiftly.

It was precisely at this moment that he noticed someone sprinting from the direction of the basketball court.

Wu Jianfeng didn’t require Wang Ye’s summons; he hurried over on his own accord.

It was Jiang Ting who had alerted him to the situation.

Witnessing Wang Ye chasing after Deng Hai had prompted her concern that Deng Hai might attempt to flee, so she had rushed to the gate to inform Wu Jianfeng.

She had informed Wu Jianfeng and had even tried to catch up with him herself.

However, she was slightly behind Wu Jianfeng.

When she saw Deng Hai pinned down on the field, her expression shifted dramatically, and she immediately halted, turning and retracing her steps.

She had initially been concerned that Deng Hai’s escape might jeopardize her safety. However, once she saw Deng Hai had been apprehended, her fears dissipated. Her primary concern was avoiding another encounter with Deng Hai, so she promptly made her exit.

As for Wu Jianfeng’s recent command to not move, she had thrown it to the winds.

“Remember what you promised me. Otherwise, I won’t spare you, even if I become a ghost!”

Deng Hai warned, having noticed Wu Jianfeng’s presence, though he didn’t catch sight of the fleeting figure that had briefly appeared and then vanished.

Wang Ye hadn’t noticed either.

Upon hearing Deng Hai’s words, he promptly assured him, “I’ll keep my word. Don’t worry, I’ll inform the company commander!”

Shortly thereafter, Wu Jianfeng arrived.

He surveyed Deng Hai, lying on the ground with his face buried, and the dagger at his feet. Then, he glanced at the onlookers who had gathered nearby.

He clenched his fists momentarily, then relaxed them, taking a deep breath to suppress the urge to harm Deng Hai. He turned to Wang Ye and inquired, “Are you injured?”

No,” Wang Ye replied, shaking his head.

“Alright, let’s apprehend him and head back.”

There were bystanders present, so Wu Jianfeng didn’t want to engage in further discussion at the scene.

His priority was to take Deng Hai into custody first.

Upon saying this, Wu Jianfeng bent down to pick up the dagger from the ground. It needed to be confiscated.

“Wang Ye, you promised me!”

Deng Hai couldn’t contain himself any longer. He turned his head to look at Wang Ye and let out a low, guttural growl.

Wang Ye disregarded him but relayed to Wu Jianfeng, “Commander, I promised to take him to meet his girlfriend!”

Wu Jianfeng raised his gaze, staring at Deng Hai with an impassive expression. Then, he turned around, peering in the direction from which Deng Hai had come.

He had a vague sense that the woman had caught up to them briefly, but now she seemed to have disappeared.

After a moment of reflection, Wu Jianfeng realized something.

“It was her who called me just now. She caught up with me when I arrived, but I haven’t seen her since.”

“I don’t know where she is now,” Wu Jianfeng continued after a pause. “1 can take you to search for her, but I can’t guarantee we’ll find her.”

He agreed, not out of pity for Deng Hai but because he harbored even stronger disdain for him.

His consent was largely influenced by Wang Ye’s suggestion.

No, I must see her!”

“There’s nothing to see. Your girlfriend cheated on you. She was with someone else last year. Do you know where the captain and 1 found her when we came looking for her yesterday?”

Wang Ye spoke at this moment, no longer concealing the truth from Deng Hai.

He couldn’t be bothered to sugarcoat it for this unfortunate soul.

As he gazed at Deng Hai, who stared at him wide-eyed, Wang Ye sighed inwardly but continued, “When we came here yesterday, she wasn’t on campus at all. Eventually, we found her at a hotel outside the school.

Furthermore, she was with another man!”

“No, I can’t believe it! You’re lying to me. It’s impossible!” Deng Hai’s eyes reddened.

His tied hands strained behind his back, and he attempted to stand.

Wang Ye stepped forward to support him, simultaneously reiterating, “Do you think 1 have any reason to lie to you?

Only a fool like you would go AWOL for a woman like her!”

“Take me to her, 1 want to see her!”

Now on his feet, Deng Hai attempted to leave, but Wang Ye restrained him. He couldn’t depart, so he shouted at Wang Ye with bloodshot eyes.

In this moment, the veins on his temples and neck visibly throbbed.

“Wang Ye didn’t deceive you. As for bringing you to see her, I’ve already said that I can take you to look for her,” Wu Jianfeng added, still on the phone, addressing Deng Hai as well.

Then, Wu Jianfeng’s call connected, and he said, “Deng Hai has been apprehended.”

Without delving into details, Wu Jianfeng promptly ended the call and proceeded to dial other numbers.

Now that Deng Hai had been apprehended, he needed to inform the instructor and report the situation promptly.

Delaying the matter would only allow it to escalate further.

His primary objective was to regain control of the situation. As for how Deng Hai would be dealt with later, that wasn’t within his purview to decide..
