Chapter 24: The Action Has Begun

  When I said I was going to take action against Xu Dong and Sun Li, Zhao Zi Yang and Ma Long didn't have any major objections. After all, those two had betrayed me first and sold me out later. If it wasn't for the fact that Chen Shao and Liu Ping had messed with my head recently, I would have taken care of them a long time ago.

  Ma Long looked around and whispered in my ear, "Crazy brother, now Xu Dong and Sun Li are going to run to Chen Shao's place after class, I'm afraid we won't have any chance... they won't be back in the dorm at night either..."

  I nodded and said, "I know, they were in Zhang Jun's dormitory all night, they are very close to Zhang Jun. From what I understand, this Zhang Jun also wants to follow Yu Zichen, but because of my presence in the class, he doesn't dare to stand on Yu Zichen's side so openly."

  Zhao Ziyang snorted: "Zhang Jun is nothing, we'll take care of the three of them tonight."

  I shook my head, then took out the school's floor plan that Lu Xiaoyu had drawn for me. I pointed to the location of our classroom on the map: "Not tonight, but in a little while, according to their usual routine, Xu Dong and Sun Li will enter the classroom five minutes before class starts. That's when we'll make our move, and the location is our classroom."

  Ma Long looked at me in surprise and said: "Feng Ge, have you gone crazy again? At that time, the teacher might also be waiting outside for class, and you're doing this..."

  I laughed and said: "My nickname 'Madman' wasn't given in vain."

  Zhao Ziyang, who had a fiery temper, also thought that I was overdoing it this time and shook his head repeatedly: "Feng Ge, what you're doing is too risky. Getting rid of Xu Dong and Sun Li just to leave evidence for the teacher isn't worth it."

  I whispered, "Don't worry, the first class this afternoon is math, and the math teacher is a typical latecomer, he won't arrive that early. You guys go eat something first, or you'll be too hungry to fight later." - The Natural-Born Rogue 24

  As a result, Zhao Ziyang didn't go either and said he would stay in the classroom with me, just in case something special happened, so the task of buying food fell on Ma Long alone.

  Ma Long left and Zhao Zi Yang sat down beside me, saying: "Feng Ge, be honest with me, are you going to make some big move?"

  I smiled and said, "How can you be so sure?"

  Zhao Ziyang pointed at the sketch in my hand and said, "Your drawing has so many circles on it, what do they mean? You've brought out the entire map, aren't you planning something big?"

  I smiled mysteriously and said, "The circles I've marked are all the places where we might fight in the future. After we take care of Xu Dong and Sun Li today, let's go to these circled places and investigate carefully. One of them must be the place where Yu Zichen will fall."

  Zhao Ziyang curiously said: "Feng Ge, what's your plan anyway? Don't just buy time."

  I wrote eight words on paper: "Startle the snake! Lure the snake out of its hole!"

  Then I said, "Let's not directly confront Yu Zichen for now. The people around him are always surrounded by a group of people, but the number of people following him every day is different. In other words, except for Yu Zichen, the people around him may act alone, and our goal is those people. As long as we find out that they have someone acting alone, we will attack, no matter where it is. We must keep attacking until Yu Zichen can't help but take action against us."

  "Is this what they mean by 'each one a powerful blow'?"

  At the same time, he took a look at my sketch and his eyebrows furrowed: "Crazy brother, if I'm not mistaken, the circles you drew are either near the teaching building or around the grade director's office. Are you sure you're not digging your own grave?"

  I smiled and said: "If we didn't fight near there, how could the teacher have found out? If the teacher hadn't discovered it, why would he take action against Chen Shao?"

  Zhao Ziyang looked confused and stared at me: "Madman, what are you going to do? I feel like something is off."

  I sneered: "I want Yu Zichen to never appear in No. 1 Middle School again."

  Zhao Ziyang asked for a while, seeing that I didn't want to tell him the inside story, and stopped asking: "Crazy brother, no matter what you do, I'm on your side. If you need anything, just tell me."

  I nodded: "I need a knife, a utility knife that can adjust the blade length." ??The Natural Born Rogue 24

  Zhao Ziyang was taken aback, his face changed greatly: "Madman, you've really gone mad, if you use a knife you'll also be expelled."

  I shook my head: "Don't worry, I've got it under control!"

  Zhao Ziyang saw that he couldn't outdo me, so he said: "I'll go get the knife, and I'll take care of the person too. Without this madman, it wouldn't be interesting to just leave me, Zhao Ziyang."

  "I muttered under my breath: 'Are you stupid? I said I won't take responsibility, which means I have a way to get out of this. What are you blindly meddling in?'"

  Zhao Ziyang looked and still didn't believe it: "Is there really a way to shirk responsibility?"

  I nodded: "Yes, but the difficulty coefficient of this plan is too high. Only I can execute it personally, so don't ask about the details. Just do what I tell you to do for the next two days."

  Zhao Ziyang nodded half-believing and half-doubting, then went out of the classroom to buy me a craft knife.

  Zhao Ziyang had just left for a short while when Lu Xiaoyu carried a bag of tofu and two eggs into the classroom.

  She put these things in front of me and said, "Nuo, yours. Malong was left in the cafeteria by Hu Fei, and Zhao Ziyang's share of our family's shampoo will be brought to him."

  I smiled and picked up the straw, inserting it into the soy milk cup and starting to drink in big gulps. I was really a bit thirsty.

  Lu Xiaoyu thought I was starving and handed me a tissue to wipe my mouth while peeling an egg for me.

  "Hey, slow down, I'm not competing with you." Lu Xiaoyu said with a smile as she watched me eat.

  After I finished eating, Ma Long and Zhao Ziyang also returned to the classroom one after another. When there were still ten minutes before class started, Lu Xiaoyu reluctantly sat back in her own seat at my request.

  Zhao Ziyang swapped positions with Ma Long and sat down beside me, handing me the utility knife: "Crazy guy, I've taken care of what you asked me to do. You should keep your promises, don't get yourself into trouble."

  I nodded and smiled, patting Zhao Ziyang's shoulder.

  With five minutes left before class started, Xu Dong and Sun Li returned to the classroom on time. They first glanced over at me, then carefully sat back down in their own seats.

  At this moment, I, Zhao Ziyang and Ma Long stood up one after another. Especially Ma Long, he rushed to the door in a flash and "bang" pushed the classroom door open.

  Hong Jun was startled and turned around nervously to look at me, while I happened to be walking in his direction as well.

  Seeing Hong Jun's appearance, Xu Dong and Sun Li let out a sigh of relief, apparently they thought I was also looking for trouble with Hong Jun.

  Before I even got close to Hong Jun, he stood up and begged for mercy: "Crazy brother, I haven't offended you recently, have I? Your bed, my dormitory mates and I all helped tidy it up neatly. Although you weren't here, we never dared to mess with your bed."

  I walked up to Hong Jun and pulled him aside, saying: "Get out of here, this has nothing to do with you."

  He finished speaking and picked up Hong Jun's stool, smashing it towards Sun Li who was watching the commotion.

  "Boom!"

  It happened to hit Sun Li's head, and Sun Li groaned in pain, then fell under the table.

  At this time, Zhao Ziyang also rushed over and pulled Xu Dong up from the other side. He pushed him to the corner of the wall, and Xu Dong hit the back of the door and sat on the ground with his buttocks.

  The class suddenly fell into chaos, with many people starting to point at us and whisper to each other. It was clear that a lot of people didn't know why we wanted to fight Xu Dong and Sun Li.

  I pulled up Sun Li from under the table and also pushed down the wall in the corner behind the door, then Zhao Ziyang and I started to exchange blows with the two of them.

  Xu Dong and Sun Li were already frightened out of their wits, they didn't dare fight back, and instead hugged their heads and cowered in the corner.

  "Crazy brother, stop hitting, stop hitting, we know we're wrong, we'll never get close to Chen Shao again." Sun Li's head had been hit with a stool by me earlier and was bleeding, after being hit several times he started begging for mercy.

  Xu Dong then gritted his teeth and said: "Yi Feng, are you going to go to war with Chen Shao? Do you know that we're currently getting along with Chen Shao?"

  As soon as Xu Dong finished speaking, Zhao Ziyang kicked him in the face with one foot, and a footprint quickly appeared on Xu Dong's face.

  Zhao Ziyang angrily said: "Even if Chen Shao came, I would have treated him the same as Crazy Brother."

  Xu Dong's face hurt, seeing that Chen Shao's name not only didn't save him but instead brought an even heavier beating. He quickly changed his tune and said: "Crazy Brother, in the past I was also with Sun Li and helped you take down Liu Tao, so for old times' sake, please spare me."

  I stopped for a moment, pulled up Xu Dong's collar and said: "You also know that you followed me, it was because you followed me, helped me, so when you betrayed me and joined Chen Shao, I didn't make things difficult for you. But what about you? Betraying me is one thing, but actually selling me out, telling Yu Zi Chen my whereabouts, letting him bring people to ambush me in the small woods... if not for my luck, I'm afraid I would have been done for by Yu Zi Chen already. Did you ever treat me, Yi Feng, as a friend?"

  As I spoke, I punched Xu Dong in the face again. Xu Dong stumbled and fell into the corner of the wall behind the door, his mouth already bleeding from my punch.

  I fought with Zhao Ziyang for a while, and the guard at the door, Ma Long, began to urge: "Isn't it enough? The math teacher is coming."

  I also nodded and stopped Zhao Ziyang: "Go to the infirmary for a bandage, remember this for next time."

  I'm not worried that Xu Dong and Sun Li will take this matter to the teacher, because they are also troublemakers now. Even if it's taken to the teacher, we'll just be fighting each other, not us beating them up. As for responsibility, it's mutual anyway.

  Xu Dong supported Sun Li out of the classroom, and I followed Zhao Ziyang and Ma Long back to their respective seats.

  When I returned to my seat, I saw Lu Xiaoyu glance at me, seemingly worried and also seemingly fearful...

  After I returned to my seat, Xu Dong and Sun Li's seats were taken by people nearby.

  Before long, the math teacher entered the classroom and began teaching.

  He saw that Xu Dong and Sun Li's seats were empty, and asked symbolically. Zhao Ziyang replied loudly: "Report to the teacher, this morning Sun Li bumped his head against the bed railing in the dormitory and got a cut on his head, so Xu Dong accompanied him to the infirmary."

  The math teacher nodded and didn't continue to investigate further.

  As for Zhao Ziyang's nonsense, others in the class naturally didn't dare to expose him to his face.
