Rumors and gossips are scary!

Xinyang No.1 High school, at the front gate—

There was an uproar!

Random gossips and chatters pitched the usually orderly and amicable atmosphere in shambles.

A group of thirty odds fierce-looking men proudly standing by the side of the school gate, chilling next to the fences while littering, smoking cigarettes.

The sight of them quickly attracted the attention of all the passersby and the curious students.

It's evident that by bearing the word 'Xinyang' in its name, Xinyang No.1 High School was a prestigious school in Xinyang Town where most well-off and kids from affluent families came to study. Some ordinary everyday thugs would never dare to act so brazenly and overbearing here in public, but these bunches are different.

In Xinyang Town, as long as they didn't kill in broad daylight, they weren't afraid of anything.

Beating up a few individuals are of negligible importance.

The group all dressed in black from top to bottom, and on the back of their black jacket was branded with the iconic logo of a ferocious dog baring its fang. And each of them, if not holding onto a metal baseball bat, then it would be a metal rod.

"Looks at the logo. They are from the Black Dog Gang. What do we do? The students and teachers didn't even dare to enter the school. Should we call the police?"

One of the new security guards asked his senior for an opinion.

"Are you courting death?" The senior guard looked at him as if he was looking at an idiot and quickly rebuked, "Call the police! Yeah, call them, and they will cripple you!"

"But are we not going to do anything? They are obstructing public order. The school hired us to be security guards—"

"Stupid greenhorn! Can you just shut the f*ck up and mind your own business? Use your brain for a second! Even if you want to die, don't drag me with you!"

"But—"

*Smack!*

The senior guard slapped the newbie's head. Seeing that the thugs were glancing at them, he desperately put on a fawning smile before turning a blind eye, sharing his wisdom, spreading the light onto the newbie's ignorance.

"It's rumored that their boss, Zhou Clang Clang is a ruthless man. One time, some random person accidentally farted in the same restaurant he happened to dine in. Do you know what happened next? Because no one is willing to confess, those who dined there that day completely disappeared! It was as if they didn't exist! Let's not mention Xinyang. Many say that Boss Zhou's influences reached even the huge cities. We small fries can't touch them. Don't bother."

"When these cultured gentlemen found the one they came for, they will leave on their own. We don't have to do anything."

...

"...Brother Scar Face, they are filming us."

A handsome thug pointed at the onlookers and whispered to a bald man who seemed to be their leader. Around them, he could see that some hard-headed students who weren't afraid of death already had their phones out and started live streaming on social media.

The bald man called Scar Face first adjusted the neckband of his black dog jacket. If he were to be filmed, he would prefer to look proper.

Next, Scar Face took a deep puff of his cigarette, spatting out the smoke on his subordinate's face, and stated, "Leave them be. They can record as much as they want. We didn't even make a move yet. What are you stressing about?"

"Huh? Wait, I hadn't seen your face before. You new a member?"

"No, no, I've been going around collecting debts at the market. It's my first time working directly under you, so it makes sense that someone as important as you wouldn't remember a small-timer me." The handsome thug's eyes lit up, and he spoke eagerly.

"I have admired you for a long time, brother Scar Face. I even have a tattoo of your name on my ass. Please, take a look!"

"Oh damn!" Once Scar Face leaned forward and took a quick glimpse, he immediately patted the handsome thug on his shoulder and smiled warmly. "That shit's awesome! I see that you have great potential. Starting from today, you are officially one of my men. I will take care of you hereafter. Your future is limitless. Hahaha!"

After successfully bootlicking his leader, the handsome thug nodded happily: "Yes, yes, thank you, brother Scar Face! Thank you! I will work hard. You won't be disappointed with me!"

"Hey, excuse me? What is going on? Do you know why it is so crowded here?"

Noticing the abnormal situation in front of the school gate, Yayoi, holding a bag full of the classic fried dough sticks, walked over to a random fellow dressed in Xinyang High School's uniform and voiced her doubts. She was confused, wondering why everyone would stop and gather together as if they were watching a concert of some sort.

"You hadn't heard? It's the Black Do—"

At that moment, when that student turned back and saw who was asking, he instantly kept his distance and retreated.

While running away, he yelled loudly as if afraid that others couldn't hear him, "He's here, Xuan Yu's here!"

Immediately, the place descent into disarray.

"What? Xuan Yu's finally here? I heard Linbao was beaten to a pup by him. Is it true?"

"No way, I heard that it was not just a simple beating. He crippled Linbao for good!"

"Xuan Yu? That coward? You must be joking. How would he have the gut to beat anyone."

"Coward? You aren't up to date with the news, my friend! I heard that Xuan Yu raped Linbao and his goons, and now the Black Dog Gang is here to ask for an explanation!"

*Gasp!*

There are various rumors.

Yayoi's huge figure was too noticeable; hence she quickly gathered the attention of everyone present, and they all started avoiding her as if dodging a plague. No one dared to get too close, afraid that the thugs would misinterpret that they were together.

As for Yayoi, she just stood there, too stunned to speak.

Being friends with Lin Jiangfeng, she didn't expect trouble would find its way to her so quickly.

Spotting the problem, she cursed.

'F*ck!'
