Chapter 13: The Trio in the Restroom

Chapter 13: The Trio in the Restroom

In the hallway, Lei Cang walked ahead, followed by the three individuals. They headed towards the restroom together.

The shortest one, Takayama Takashi, was puzzled. "Aren't we here to cause trouble for him? Why does it feel like we're his lackeys?"

While leering at passing female students, Ose Kohei said, "I feel the same way."

Okudo Ryota, with a malicious look, added, "Who cares? Once we're in the restroom, let's beat him up first, then force his head into the toilet and make him drink some water. Let's see if he still pretends to be tough!"

Both Takayama and Ose nodded in agreement.

Soon, the four of them reached the restroom. After driving away the male students inside, Takayama, Ose, and Okudo slammed the door shut and trapped Lei Cang inside.

Lei Cang stood in the middle, calmly observing their actions. Even though the three surrounded him, he remained unruffled.

Takayama sneered and pulled out a piece of paper from his pocket. He slammed it on Lei Cang's chest and pointed at him menacingly, bringing his narrow face close to Lei Cang's with an evil smile.

"Sign this and put your handprint on it, don't blame me for not giving you a chance, kid."

Lei Cang brushed his hand away and pushed him slightly. Takayama became furious. "You!"

Lei Cang paid him no attention. He picked up the contract and read it.

It was a real estate transfer contract, indicating the ownership of a plot of land on the west side of the city, which happened to be where the orphanage was located.

If he signed it, the orphanage's land would be transferred away.

Lei Cang looked at the reward section, and there was none.

In other words, this was an unpaid transfer contract.

Recalling the rumors he had heard earlier about the city's expansion, Lei Cang immediately understood.

... Someone was eyeing the orphanage's land as a lucrative opportunity.

"Are you sure about this?" Shorty Takayama sneered. "If you don't want to get beaten every day, then hurry up and sign it."

The sneaky-looking Ose Kohei chimed in with a threat, "I advise you not to resist uselessly. Even if you've learned a few tricks, you can't beat the three of us."

Okudo Ryota was even more direct. He pulled out a short steel rod from behind him and tapped it in his hand. "I've been annoyed by your attitude for a while now. What are you pretending for? Even if you sign it, I'll still mess up your face first."

Lei Cang chuckled lightly and didn't bother to evade the simultaneous attacks from the three. In an instant, his left hand formed a blade, and he swiftly made a chopping motion.

He caught Okudo Ryota's wrist as he held the steel rod, causing him to wince in pain and drop the rod. Lei Cang seized the opportunity to snatch the rod mid-air and fiercely struck Okudo Ryota's face with it. Several teeth flew out, and Okudo Ryota spat out a mouthful of blood, promptly passing out without a sound.

Facing the attacking legs of Biggy Ose Kohei, Lei Cang used all his strength to deliver a powerful kick to his chest. Ose was sent skidding several meters along the floor, clutching his chest, gasping for air, his face twisted in pain.

"I... I can't breathe."

As for the punching attack from Takayama Takashi, Lei Cang didn't even bother dodging. He merely tilted his head slightly, and the fist landed on his shoulder, making a muffled sound like hitting thick leather.

Takayama Takashi clenched his fist, staring blankly at Lei Cang. He then glanced at his two unconscious companions on the ground. Suddenly, panic overcame him, and he took a few steps backward, attempting to escape. However, Lei Cang immediately grabbed him by the back of his neck like a chick and pulled him back.

"Who sent you?" Lei Cang held his collar, forcing an answer.

"I... I don't know!" Takayama Takashi kicked his legs in the air, about to burst into tears.

"Hmm?" Lei Cang raised an eyebrow. "Still pretending?"

Seeing Lei Cang's gaze shifting toward the toilet, Takayama Takashi became even more panicked. "I really don't know! The one who knew has already been knocked out by you!"

"Let me go! Bro! Okudo Ryota said there's some money for us if we do this. I was forced to come! I'm not the mastermind!"

At that moment, Takayama Takashi was cursing Okudo Ryota in his heart. He hadn't even inquired properly before taking action, and now he had run into a brick wall!

This guy had been low-key in the class for two years, and his performance in physical education was just average. How could he be so good at fighting?

But so what if he could fight? What use was it?

Takay

ama Takashi's eyes flickered with a trace of ferocity.

Just you wait! After school, I'll call people to surround you. I don't believe you can beat twenty people with weapons!

First, I'll pretend to please this guy, and then I'll get my revenge after school!

"In that case, you're of no value." Lei Cang was somewhat uninterested and let go of Takayama Takashi.

"Thank you, thank you, bro. I promise I won't bother you again!" Takayama Takashi was overjoyed, promising Lei Cang, "In the future, if you point east, I'll head west. If you point south, I'll go north! Point... ugh!"

Before he could finish, Takayama Takashi received a heavy punch to his face. Feeling intense pain, he saw numerous stars and screamed in agony before falling to the ground.

Lei Cang kicked the dizzy Okudo Ryota in the back, causing him to roll over, and then lifted him up, walking him toward the toilet.

"Don't—ah!" Takayama Takashi screamed, but it turned into gurgling noises. About thirty seconds later, he stopped struggling and fainted. Lei Cang released him and approached Ose Kohei.

As Ose Kohei saw Lei Cang approaching, he knew what was coming and frantically tried to retreat. He even attempted to resist, but it only resulted in receiving another kick from Lei Cang. He was lucky not to lose his breath entirely and ended up being pressed into the toilet.

"Gurgle, gurgle..."

As for Okudo Ryota, who had already fainted, Lei Cang showed no mercy either.

With all three of them lying in the urinal, there was no space left. Lei Cang then inserted the head of Takayama Takashi into the toilet, allowing him to savor the fragrance. Lei Cang assumed he would like the taste when he woke up.

Observing the three exposed behinds, Lei Cang discarded the steel rod, clapped his hands casually, and said, "From now on, I'll call you the 'Restroom Trio.'"

Lei Cang washed his hands, opened the restroom door, and saw a well-mannered glasses-wearing student smiling at him.

"Lei Cang, you've violated the school rules. Come with me."

He adjusted his glasses and continued, "Don't even think about arguing. There are plenty of witnesses in the hallway."

Lei Cang glanced at the students in the hallway, seeing them turn their heads away one after another, and he immediately understood.

"And you are the disciple of which high-ranking official?"

"I am called Le Liangpeng," the glasses-wearing student smiled politely. "I'm the president of the Guanyin Temple Academy Student Council."

"I wouldn't dare to claim a high-ranking official, but my father is one of the directors of Guanyin Temple Academy and currently runs a not-so-big company. My family barely has some wealth."

"Lei Cang, you have assaulted a fellow student, which violates the school rules. As the president of the student council, it's necessary for me to correct such inappropriate behavior and instruct you on the proper behavioral norms."

"Please come with me to the student council office. Oh, this isn't an invitation, it's an order."
