Chapter 51: House robbery?
Translator: – – Editor: – –
The two thieves arrived in front of a bungalow, took out their keys to open the door and walked in.
Yang Ming took advantage of this chance and aggressively leaped toward them.
The thief who entered the house last was preparing to close the door when suddenly he felt a strong force pus.h.i.+ng the door in the opposite direction. Before he could understand what was happening, the doork.n.o.b had already slipped out of his hand. He wanted to figure out what was happening but all he saw was a fist that gradually increased in size and eventually landed on the front of his face! What he felt afterward was dizziness unlike the clear mind he had before, and then gradually he didn’t know what was happening anymore.
Yang Ming wanted this exact effect. Even though he had the confidence to knock down these two brats, if he saw a better chance, why would he risk it? Therefore, Yang Ming used his full force to knock right into this thief’s forehead.
Even though Yang Ming’s punch couldn’t really be counted as some sort of metal punch, when he played the punching bell at the fair, he could easily knock out a force of 100 kg which was the maximum force limit. Yang Ming didn’t know what the actual force of his punch was since he never measured it before. He wasn’t a professional boxer and the fair’s limit was just 100 kg. Even if that was the case, Yang Ming didn’t think that this brat would be able to stand up after such a strong knock on his head.
Of the two, one person was down. The remaining one would be pretty easy to handle. However Yang Ming wanted to play would be completely his decision.
“Big brother, why did you take such a long time to close the door? Let’s quickly discuss this and claim our prize!” The person who had entered walked out of the house impatiently. When he saw a person that he didn’t recognize standing at his door, he was shocked. “You… Who are you?”
As his words came out, he saw his older brother lying down by the front door. His face turned black, and he went into a panic and shouted, “What do you want to do? House robbery! You… don’t come near me, I’m calling someone!”
House robbery? Yang Ming didn’t know whether he should laugh or cry. The ones who actually were in a house robbery were you guys, right? But when Yang Ming saw his jellyfish-like face, he thought it was funny. Yang Ming thought he would be a tough guy. What a waste of his muscles! Yang Ming thought that he was pretty courageous, but he didn’t have such broad shoulders like this guy has. Thus, Yang Ming confirmed that these two people were definitely stealing for the first time.
“Call someone? Sure, call the police to come over. Tell them that there are two thieves here that had just finished one case!” Yang Ming interjected.
“You… Who are you? How do you know…” The expression of the person in front of him s.h.i.+fted, and in his eyes, there was a trace of violence. “F*** you. Go die!”
The person in front took a screwdriver and forcefully jabbed it toward Yang Ming’s belly.
Whenever Yang Ming fought in the past, he would never take weapons. He hated those people who used knives. A fight meant that you wanted to give the other person a lesson, but when you use a knife, this meant that you want to take the life of the other person!
Yang Ming raised his eyebrow and dodged the attack. While the person was still stepping forward to attack him, Yang Ming kicked the guy’s private part. Yang Ming rarely used this type of sinister action, but he would do it without hesitation whenever he met anyone who used weapons.
Pak dak. The screwdriver fell to the ground. The person in front knelt down painfully, with both of his hands holding his crotch and mumbled.
“Hand over the item!” Yang Ming who didn’t quite care if he was in pain, grabbed his hair and pulled him up before pus.h.i.+ng him into the wall.
“What, what item?” The eyes of the person no longer had that sense of violence. What took its place was fear – a deep sense of fear!
— “There’s no chance that he would know that I took the lottery ticket. Since the lottery ticket is in my big brother’s trouser pocket, if I don’t admit it he can’t do anything about it!” Yang Ming surprisingly found out that he was able to see through the guy’s thoughts again!
“Hmph, you must be thinking that if you don’t admit it, I would think that you didn’t take anything?” Yang Ming sneered.
The person nodded subconsciously, then immediately shook his head.
— “He’s testing me! I must not leak out anything!”
“You think I am testing you?” Yang Ming smiled and let him go. Then, Yang Ming went to the person who he knocked out earlier and took out the lottery ticket from the pocket. While doing all these things, he used the rest of his eyesight to watch the person and ensure that the guy did not sneak up on him. However, it seemed that this person was too afraid to do anything.
— “How did he know? That’s impossible!”
“Let me give you a chance right now. Tell me why you went to Yang Dahai’s house to steal this lottery ticket.” Yang Ming was already sure that these two people knew his father or else they wouldn’t be calling him “Old Yang”!
“What are you saying? I don’t know. This was a lottery ticket that my big brother bought two days ago. I don’t really know the Yang Dahai you are talking about…” denied the person.
— “How did he know about Yang Dahai? What’s his relations.h.i.+p to Yang Dahai?”
“I am Yang Ming, Yang Dahai’s son!” Yang Ming said suddenly.
“How… How do you know what I am thinking… ” The person stared at Yang Ming as he trembled.
“I was guessing it because your eyes were lying to me.” Yang Ming, of course, wouldn’t be telling him his secret. “Last chance – tell me everything or else I will beat you both up another round and hand you to the police!”
— “Still need to beat us up another round?” The person was obviously frightened.
“Yes, I don’t mind telling you another thing. I have just come out of jail and have a lot of brothers in there. Once you are both inside, they will take care of you for me every day,” threatened Yang Ming.
“Are you are sure you won’t be telling the police?” The person said while he jittered.
“Do you think you have a choice?” Yang Ming shrugged. “Even if you don’t say it, it’s no loss to me. When you are at the police station you would have to tell them everything as well.”
“Okay, I will speak!” The person knew what Yang Ming said was true. Even if he didn’t confess now, he would still have to tell everything once he was at the police station.
Yang Ming nodded his head signaling him to continue.
“My name is Zhang Xiulu; my brother’s name is Zhang Xiufu. Both of us are Song Jiang’s Car Repair Shop’s mechanics – at the same repair shop with Yang Dahai. Two days ago, master Yang asked my brother to give him some change because the food stall in the restaurant didn’t have any change. All he did was to go to the lottery shop across the way to buy a lottery ticket…”
After Yang Ming listened to Zhang Xiulu’s explanation, once again he didn’t know whether he should laugh or cry. No wonder – otherwise his father absolutely wouldn’t have gone to buy a lottery ticket. Once he had bought it, he definitely would just have thrown it aside. It wasn’t even a surprise that it fell to the bottom of the bed because he would never believe that he could win the lottery! Based on the present situation, it seemed like he had hit the jackpot and these two brothers had become so greedy that they wanted to steal the lottery ticket!
Based on this sentence, should he be thanking these two brothers? If it weren’t for them, this lottery ticket would have been gone!
“Then, you both realized that he hit the lottery and wanted to claim it as your own. Did I get you right?” Yang Ming continued based on what the person said.
