Chapter 314: Coward and Murderer


Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation


Stepping forward and making a rigorous ‘drilling’ style fist that even a martial arts master would not be able to block, Zhang Lisheng performed the art six to seven times, either combined these two styles together or independently, and knocked out all the black young robbers.


Then, he treaded on the rain that covered his ankles and walked over to the two men and one young woman who seemed to have not yet realized that they had been out of danger. Looking at the horror on the Asian girl’s delicate face who was looking back at himself trembling, he frowned and took off his coat to put it on the girl.


Afterwards, the young man shouted at Guo Caiying who was staring dumbstruck in a daze from the side of the car, “Senior Sister, I don’t know how to comfort people. You better come and get Senior Sister Chuhe up the car. She looks terrified.”


Upon hearing this shout. Guo Caiying snapped back to her realization and hastily run up to her best friend, before holding her and whispering to her, “Chuhe… Chuhe! It’s alright now! It’s alright now…”


“Caiying, is it you? It’s you, Caiying? I… I…” When Chuhe saw Guo Caiying’s face that was only a foot away from herself, Ai Chuhe touched her in disbelief. After knowing that everything in front of her was not an illusion, she burst out crying uncontrollably as she buried her heat on her best friend’s shoulder.


“Don’t be scared! Don’t be scared! It’ll be alright after you cry! It’ll be alright…” Guo Caiying patted her friend’s back while whispering comfort.


While she was whispering, she looked at the unscathed faces of the two men standing dumbstruck and who were completely soaked by Ai Chuhe’s side and suddenly froze.


After a moment of silence, the girl turned her gaze to Zhang Lisheng who was standing in the rain with a composed and calm expression from the very beginning, as though trying to say something.


However, in the end, feeling as though the most important thing right now was to calm her best friend down, so as to not leave a psychological wound on her, she did not comment about it and merely said, “Chuhe, it’s freezing right now. Don’t catch a cold. Let us head back to the car first.”


Then, she helped her friend to walk to the SUV.


Upon seeing the backs of the two girls that were gradually getting farther away, the taller one between the two robbed young men in the rain suddenly seemed to have awakened by the cold rain. s.h.i.+vering, he took out a tattered gla.s.s that had already been smashed at one side and let it hang on the bridge of his nose. With a few steps, he gave chase to them and opened his mouth to explain in a low voice, “We were driving and the car window suddenly…”


“Stop it! Let Chuhe calm down first!” Guo Caiying interrupted the tattered-looking man without even turning her head.


“I-It’s not like Xiaobao and I didn’t want to fight back, but we just couldn’t beat them. There were too many of them and they even had knives…”


“Stop it, I understand!” Sensing that her best friend’s shoulder began to tremble again, Guo Caiying snarled loudly and helped Ai Chuhe to get on the SUV.


At this time, Zhang Lisheng had already come to enter the car. After handing two hot coffees to the girls, he looked at the frightened young man out of his wits and suddenly said, “Senior Brother Bingya actually did the right thing. He wanted to do his best but was helpless. You can’t ask him to go to h.e.l.l because of this, right?”


“Then he could just watch his girlfriend being bullied?” Guo Caiying suddenly shouted. “The reason this girl got into such a dangerous situation in the first place because he forced her to come!”


Zhang Lisheng was stunned. Helpless, he waved his hand. “I was merely a.n.a.lyzing according to logic. Ah, forget it, why am I making a mistake to argue with a woman again. Just pretend I said nothing, Senior Sister. Do you need me to switch the warm air higher?”


The young man had taken a step back but the girl’s mood became even more agitated. Staring at Luo Bingya who was standing dumbstruck in the rain outside the car, the clear disappointment in her heart made her unable to control her mouth as she continued to snarl at Zhang Lisheng, “So what if I’m a woman? Is there even a difference between a man and a woman when it comes to speaking senses? Stop pretending to be a good person. I ask you and you better tell the truth! If a rogue robber suddenly bullied your girlfriend or a friend who has a good relations.h.i.+p with you, what would you have done before they beat you to death?”


Zhang Lisheng pretended to not hear it and turned his head, not saying anything. Luo Bingya, on the other hand, had trembled slightly in the night rain.


Staring at the man’s pained expression outside of the car, Guo Caiying felt an inexplicable sense of pain and pleasure in her heart. Gritting her teeth, she asked, “I’m asking you, Zhang Lisheng! Tell me! What would you have done if it were you?”


Not having done anything wrong yet he was being interrogated like that, Zhang Lisheng’s expression finally fumed. He turned his head again and smiled coldly. “Senior Sister, everyone will make different choices in this kind of situation, so it’s hard to tell right or wrong. The choice that I would have done would not necessarily be better than others.”


“But at least you won’t be a coward, right?”


“But a murderer is not necessarily better than a coward!” After many thoughts flashed across his mind, the young man made up his mind and calmly answered. “To be honest, my character is very extreme. I don’t really give a d.a.m.n when I come across some thugs robbing some strangers, but when somebody I know is being bullied, I’ll send those thugs to h.e.l.l!”


“Huh! How terrifying! I know you and Chuhe knows each other. Why didn’t you kill the robbers then?”


“The flood on the ground is about 20 centimeters and the seven black men already have their faces in the water…” Zhang Lisheng glanced at the car’s clock and looked into Guo Caiying’s eyes before smiling, “… for 10 minutes. Do you think they would still come out alive?”


This calm sentence breezed across Guo Caiying’s ears with a bone-chilling wind, causing the girl to freeze. All of her inexplicable anger disappeared in an instant.


Ai Chuhe, whom she was hugging, also suddenly raised her head and widened her eyes. Dumbfounded, she looked at the young man who still had a smile on his face.


“Don’t worry, it’s an open robbery wherein they smashed a speeding car’s window, so according to the laws of any state in this country, this is a crime of first-degree murder. Moreover, although the cause of death of these gangsters is being knocked out by an external force to the heart, the main cause is actually drowning. In the face of an opponent of a group of lawyers composed by the best US criminal lawyer, California’s local prosecutors will never sue a ‘good citizen’ who was willing to stop a crime from escalating.”


Faced with the two girls’ horrified gaze, Zhang Lisheng explained calmly.


The development of the incident was indeed as the young man had predicted. The sinister orphaned robbers who were stopped violently by the righteous and brave witness when they were committing the crime of intentional murder, robbery, and intentional rape, which resulted in their bizarre drowning death was indeed a case that was not worthy enough to waste too much judicial costs in the eyes of the authorities.


Other than eliciting attention to some websites and tabloid reporters on the horrifying nature of the event that caused Zhang Lisheng to have no choice but to dilute this matter using his gradually plump wings, he only had his time delayed slightly for several hours in the police station. After giving his statement, the young man gave everything else to his own lawyers to handle and got rid of the trouble easily.


In the days to come, he attended various basic biology cla.s.ses at Stanford University and appeared in major libraries and even watching biology lectures while he was walking through his tablet via the campus LAN. Relying on the absolute calm state activated by his spell, he gradually made up for the insufficient knowledge he had on his biological theory.


In the blink of an eye, the Christmas holiday arrived. Since the expansion of the tribe on the Shrimp B1 Island was urgent, Zhang Lisheng who had already decided to not return home this Christmas called his mother directly. Using the excuse of having a great double pressure from both his academic work and laboratory work, he directly told her his plan.


“Mom, I have had a critical development in my research with my supervisor recently and I must not leave this experiment behind. If I want to get a Ph.D. by next year, then I must replenish all the biological knowledge I’ve owed before. Otherwise, I may face troubles during my viva voce later. Anyway, my time is too tight now, and I may not come back home this Christmas!”


“It’s alright, baby!” Lili could not help but feel glum when she received a call from her son. However, after a moment of silence, she still agreed to it with a relaxed facade, “Remember to pay attention to rest! Don’t get too tired, you must sleep eight hours a day…”


In the early winter, the temperature in Stanford City, California had already dropped to below zero abruptly. Like usual, Zhang Lisheng wore gray clothes and was patiently listing to his mother’s nagging on the empty campus. Once in a while, he would whisper, “Yes I know. Don’t worry, Mom!”


After she finished nagging about his sleeping schedule, she started to talk about his diet. After she finished nagging about his diet, she started talking about how he should keep his warmth… As though her son who was on the side of the phone was still a little kid, she continued to exert for over ten minutes before finally hanging up the phone reluctantly.


After the call with his mother, the young man sighed with relief and dialed his girlfriend’s number.


Tina had already learnt about Zhang Lisheng’s plan through several calls before this so the instant she picked the call up, she said regrettably, “My dear, you really don’t plan to go back to New York this Christmas?”


“Yeah… But, isn’t Mr. Dolby planning to take your family on the St. Louis’ for a global trip as a celebration? What does it matter if I don’t return to New York?”


“Of course it matters, at least I can see you before I leave from New York Harbor.”


“Oh, okay. I’ll adjust my time and go back to Shrimp B1 Island after meeting you at the port.”


“Awww baby, you’re getting sweeter now! However, I’m a girl who doesn’t have the word ‘satisfaction’ in my dictionary, so if we can meet up; it’s best if we can do some other things too.”


This stunned Zhang Lisheng. When he was just about to answer, he felt somebody was approaching behind him. When he turned around, he saw two figures with about the same height as each other, a girl who had long hair spread out on her shoulder and a short-haired girl, were hesitating to come up to him. When they saw the young man suddenly turned around, they were taken aback.


The two girls were Guo Caiying and Ai Chuhe. Since the thrilling rainy night, they had never contacted Zhang Lisheng at all.


“Senior Sister Caiying, Senior Sister Chuhe, is there anything you want?” Seeing the panic on their faces, the young man smiled and asked as if nothing happened.


When Guo Caiying saw the calm smile on Zhang Lisheng’s face, she remembered his cold-blooded actions in that drizzling night. Her heart shuddered as her eyes opened and closed a few times soundlessly, before finally pointing to a campus cafe that was still open by the roadside, “Of course there’s something. It’s too cold, so let’s talk in the coffee shop.”
