Chapter 96: How Could A Man Say He Couldn’t Do It!?

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The big man was completely stunned for a moment.

Then he felt a painful sensation in his nasal bone, so painful that tears almost welled up in his eyes. He immediately covered his nose with one hand and reached out towards Su Xuan.

Su Xuan’s gaze turned cold. He grabbed the man’s hand and pulled it forcefully while using his own body to collide with the man. He slammed his knee fiercely into the man’s face.

The big man’s eyes widened, and he was about to scream in agony when Su Xuan forcefully bent his hand back and jammed it into his own hand.

The scream was stifled, and Su Xuan didn’t stop there. He pushed the man down to the ground and straddled him. With one hand, he grabbed the man’s hair and slammed his head hard against the wall.

After two muffled thuds, the big man had already rolled his eyes and passed out.

Su Xuan still didn’t feel secure.

He decided to drag both of the big men into one of the toilet cubicles, removed their shoes, used their own socks to gag their mouths, and then tied them back-to-back with a belt.

Feeling that this still wasn’t safe enough, he took off their shoelaces and tied their legs. Once he was certain that these two wouldn’t be able to escape, Su Xuan locked the door to the cubicle from the outside and climbed out over their heads.

After quickly checking outside and not finding anything amiss, Su Xuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Now that he had dealt with the two men inside, there were still three guys outside enjoying their meal and drinks.

Su Xuan calmly washed his hands and returned to the dining table.

The three men who were still feasting and drinking noticed Su Xuan’s return and were somewhat puzzled about why his companions, who had gone inside earlier, had not come out yet.

But seeing Su Xuan’s calm demeanor, they began to wonder.

“Could those two guys have fallen into a pit or something?”

“They’ve been gone for so long, they can’t possibly be up to no good in there, right?”

“What are you saying? You still don’t know that guy… Go on, eat your food!”

“Well, Qiang, don’t mind it. That guy has always been like this. 1 guess Huo had to persuade him…”

“Come on, it’s been a long time since we’ve seen each other. Let’s have a drink!”

As they chatted, Zhou Qiang’s face visibly darkened, but he finally downed a beer with the encouragement of the other two.

The bottle clinked onto the table, and his expression was grim.

“That kid!”

“Is he still holding a grudge over that bag I snatched from him back then?”

At those words, the remaining two men exchanged glances and quickly averted their gaze.

Well, buddy, maybe you should take a look inside that bag!

If it weren’t for that bag, would you be living this comfortably now?

But this matter had nothing to do with them. The two of them chuckled and resumed toasting each other.

“Come on, come on, why bother with these unworthy things? Let’s drink!”

“Yeah, you’ve come all this way…”

As the people on the other side spoke, Su Xuan also let go of the worry that had been hanging over him.

Listening to those two criminals talking in the restroom earlier, Su Xuan had already figured that there might be some discord among those two and Zhou Qiang. That’s why he dared to take action.

Now, seeing that the two men hadn’t come out for a long time, while the remaining three criminals didn’t seem to care, Su Xuan knew he had made the right bet.

“Are you okay?”

Seeing Su Xuan return, Zheng Wenjie immediately leaned in and spoke.

“Just now, those two…”

“You didn’t do anything reckless, did you? If those guys find out…”

“That would be a real problem, wouldn’t it?”

At Zheng Wenjie’s words, Su Xuan replied in a hushed tone, “Don’t worry. It seems like those people have some conflicts with the guys who went to the restroom. Didn’t you hear them talking?”

“What? What did they say?”

Zheng Wenjie was so nervous that he hadn’t even paid attention to the people around them talking. Besides, their voices were all mixed together, making it hard for him to hear anything.

“It seemed like the people we’re following have some conflicts with them.”

“I calculated the time, and Captain Liao’s team should be here soon. Don’t worry, we should be safe.”

With these words, Zheng Wenjie finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“I hope Captain Liao’s team arrives soon.”

Su Xuan had the same thought.

After all, those two men were now lying unconscious in the restroom. Even if the others didn’t notice right away, as time went on, the three people outside would realize that the two guys had been in the restroom for too long…

Then it would be difficult for him and Zheng Wenjie to stop them.

However, even if they wanted Liao to arrive faster, the journey from the police station to this location still took some time.

Captain Liao and his team came here in plainclothes, and they couldn’t use their sirens along the way, so they were stuck in traffic for a while.

At this moment, Captain Liao and his team were also extremely nervous.

They were afraid that something might have happened to Su Xuan.

But sometimes, what you fear the most comes true.

As time ticked away, the three men drinking outside began to feel something was amiss.

Especially Zhou Qiang.

From the beginning, Zhou Qiang had a sense that something was off, but he had been persuaded by his two companions.

Now, seeing that they had all had three rounds of drinks and the other two hadn’t returned, Zhou Qiang’s face turned unpleasant.

“What’s going on?”

“Why haven’t they come back yet?”

“Could they really be stuck in the restroom?”

Zhou Qiang placed his wine glass on the table and looked towards the restroom, saying, “No, I need to check.”

At this moment, the two men who had previously been persuading Zhou Qiang, fell silent.

They exchanged glances, both feeling that something was amiss. One of them said, “Could something have happened to that guy in the restroom?”

The other one suggested, “Should we go and check?”

Hearing these words, Zhou Qiang didn’t wait any longer. He stood up and started heading towards the restroom.

Seeing this scene, Su Xuan knew that if they didn’t act, the two criminals in the restroom would likely be discovered!

This couldn’t happen!

What should they do?

Su Xuan gave a meaningful look to Zheng Wenjie beside him.

If possible, it would be best to wait for their colleagues to arrive before taking action.

But clearly, this was now a special situation.

If those two didn’t act now, it was likely that the three men would notice the commotion in the restroom and bolt, and that would be a real disaster!

“Are you ready?” Su Xuan asked quietly.

Zheng Wenjie was a senior after all. He immediately straightened his posture upon hearing Su Xuan’s question. Regardless of whether he was capable or not, how could a man say he couldn’t do it!?

“I’m ready! Very ready!” Zheng Wenjie promptly replied.

Now that he understood the situation here, he was determined to join in. If they didn’t take action, those three people might escape.

Instead of alerting the enemy, it was better to take the initiative!

With that, Su Xuan and Zheng Wenjie exchanged a glance and immediately stood up, walking towards the bar counter.

Their actions appeared as if they were about to settle the bill, and Zheng Wenjie even shouted, “Boss, how much is the bill for our table?”

Their movements didn’t raise suspicion among the three men.

As the two groups passed each other, Su Xuan and Zheng Wenjie struck simultaneously!

They pounced on the three men!
