Repairer - Chapter 6

Chapter 6: Enemies on a Narrow Road (2)

Translator: Zayn_

“Uncle Niu, I heard that the old city is going to be rebuilt soon.” Su Xiaofan picked out his sister’s stuff and said with a smile, “Uncle Niu, you have two houses here. When the house is demolished, you’ll be a rich man.”

“I’ve already said it’s been ten years, but I haven’t seen them tear it down.” Uncle Niu pouted and said unhappily, “It’s fine if the house is demolished and built on its own. But if the house is in the suburbs, it’s better not to demolish it.”

“The reconstruction of an old city is usually done on the spot.” Su Xiaofan put the things on the counter. After Uncle Niu scanned the code, he took out his phone and paid the bill. “Let’s go, uncle Niu. If the rain continues, you should close the door and go home early.”

Su Xiaofan opened the umbrella with the plastic bag that had been tied. Before he could push the door open, the glass door was pulled open from the outside, and Su Xiaofan, who was walking out, bumped into someone outside.

Su Xiaofan was more than 1.8 meters tall, and his body was quite strong after all these years of morning and night training. The person opposite him was less than 1.7 meters tall, so he was knocked back by Su Xiaofan and fell on the concrete ground outside the supermarket’s canopy.

“Aiyo, big brother, I’m really sorry. I didn’t see you come in.”

When Su Xiaofan saw that he had knocked into someone, he didn’t care about holding an umbrella. He quickly walked into the heavy rain and pulled the person up. After pulling him up, Su Xiaofan saw that in addition to the person he had knocked down, there were four other people standing under the supermarket’s canopy, but Su Xiaofan couldn’t see their faces clearly due to the heavy rain.

“Hey, kid, it’s you.” Su Xiaofan had just pulled the man up when he suddenly heard a familiar voice. The man grabbed his wrist tightly, and Su Xiaofan was stunned when he saw the man’s face under the light of the supermarket. Enemies were bound to meet on a narrow road. Wasn’t the person he had knocked down Wu Chuanbao, who had come to settle scores today?

“Kid, you should keep running.” Wu Chuanbao was overjoyed to see Su Xiaofan.

Wu Chuanbao was a little upset that he didn’t manage to get Su Xiaofan in the antique market today. He found a place further away from Su Xiaofan’s stall and smoked a few rounds. He mentioned Su Xiaofan when he was chatting with some stall owners.

The temporary stalls in the antique market were not fixed. Su Xiaofan had a good relationship with Zheng Dagang, so he left two seats at a time. However, the neighboring stalls were often changed, so the stall owners in the market basically knew each other.

Su Xiaofan remembered the principle of “when you meet someone, you should only speak a little.” He did not tell others where he lived, but after staying at the antique market for a long time, people roughly knew that he lived in a community not far from the antique market. He also had a sister at home who was in high school. As he was not prepared, Wu Chuanbao managed to get all this information out of him.

Wu Chuanbao and the others had stopped fighting recently and had nothing to do, so they took a few people and wandered around the neighborhood. It was a coincidence that it rained heavily when they arrived at this neighborhood. The drenched people were planning to go to the supermarket to take shelter from the rain, but they happened to bump into Su Xiaofan.

“Big brother, we’re just doing business. One is willing to buy and the other is willing to sell. Why would I run?” Su Xiaofan laughed bitterly and pulled Wu Chuanbao under the canopy. Wu Chuanbao’s face looked a little better. He was not looking for Su Xiaofan for the 8,000 Yuan. He wanted to get the real “Dai Sheng” through Su Xiaofan and complete the deal with Xinjiang.

“This is still…” Before Wu Chuanbao could finish his sentence, he suddenly felt his right hand loosen. The arm that he was holding on to was pulled away, and Su Xiaofan in front of him darted into the rain with a “whoosh”. His speed was even faster than the rabbits that Wu Chuanbao often encountered in the mountains.

“Little brat!” Wu Chuanbao gritted his teeth in anger. He waved at Wu Chuanpeng and the others and rushed into the rain. When Uncle Niu, who had been in the supermarket, came out to check on them, they had already disappeared.

“Damn it, it seems like we have to move.” Su Xiaofan had lived here for three years, so he was naturally very familiar with the terrain. However, he didn’t dare to run straight home. Instead, he circled the neighborhood. After realizing that he hadn’t lost Wu Chuanbao and the others, Su Xiaofan quickly sped up. He would be out of the neighborhood after turning the corner in front. When he climbed over the wall and came back, they wouldn’t be able to catch up.

Su Xiaofan’s plan was good, but he didn’t expect that the weather was slippery, and he was very fast. When he turned the corner, he slipped and his whole body hit the wall in front of him. The terrible thing was that the electric box of the community was on the wall. Su Xiaofan couldn’t stop in time, so he only had time to twist his body before his back hit the electric box with a bang.

The electric box, which had to be repaired every ten days to half a month, was already old and couldn’t withstand Su Xiaofan’s weight of more than a hundred pounds. With a loud bang, a dazzling flash of lightning appeared. The rain conducted electricity, and a glowing electric net appeared in the rain like a spider web.

As if pulled by the power grid on the ground, a thunderclap sounded in the sky. The dazzling lightning filled the entire night sky. Countless branch-like lightning bolts extended out of the ball and extended into the night sky. The dark night was as bright as day at this moment, and the thickest lightning branch was connected to Su Xiaofan on the ground.

Under the bright light, Su Xiaofan’s shocked expression was clearly seen by Wu Chuanbao, who had gone a little numb from more than ten meters away. However, the next moment, the lights in the entire neighborhood suddenly went dark, and the circuit that could not withstand the burden finally short-circuited.

“Damn it, why… How did this happen?” Wu Chuanbao was dumbfounded when he saw Su Xiaofan lying in the rain like a wooden block. He had never expected this to happen.

Wu Chuanpeng, who was following closely behind, also saw this scene. He stuttered, “Second brother, you must… Do you want to call the police?”

“Call the police? To save or to catch? If you don’t want to die, why aren’t you leaving?”

Wu Chuanbao wiped the rain off his face, took out his phone, and turned on the flashlight. He looked at Su Xiaofan, who was no longer moving on the ground, and pulled Wu Chuanpeng out of the community. In Wu Chuanbao’s heart, that Su Xiaofan was dead for sure. He was not the God of Thunder, who was struck by lightning after being electrocuted. Even if he had a hundred lives, he would still be dead.
