Chapter 30 Two Packs of Cigarettes

  Chen Ergou was not like Huang Yuqing, a fledgling who would swagger and show off. He took advantage of the momentum to take down two opponents at once, without any intention of showing off. He glanced at Cai Huangmao standing on the side, whose sinister implication only he could understand. As a high-achieving student, Chen Ergou immediately took action, without any hesitation, and shouted: "Get up, all of you! Beat these rubbish who are making trouble!"

  Fighting also has its own rhythm, once the momentum is on your side, even a timid mouse can jump high and bite people. What's more, these security guards who aren't very righteous aren't useless, especially since they have a guilty conscience, their movements are naturally more decisive and ruthless than before. The small-time henchmen behind Cai Huang Mao are used to making a living by fighting, they know how to use whatever objects they can find as weapons, and after fighting many times, they know what to use and how much force to apply, they're not afraid of causing casualties. Although Wang Hu looks like he's been beaten badly, in fact, except for Huang Yuqin's bottle, none of the others have caused any serious injury.

  About thirty men were tangled together, Chen Erdog's body decided he wasn't that kind of gorilla-level fierce man who sweeps through thousands of troops. He didn't plan to establish a powerful image in front of the onlookers at this bar either. The gun shoots out the leading bird, and only Huang Yuying, this unscrupulous playboy, hasn't tasted the bitter fruit. Chen Erdog swam around like a loach, exerting himself with black feet and fists, using whatever he could - bottles, chairs, and even a fruit plate. Although he didn't avoid getting punched during that time, in the end, it was still more comfortable than being on the front line of battle.

  Cai Huang Mao indeed lives up to being a trusted and capable member of Hei Hu's team, after exploding he is not much better than a mad dog. With him as the mainstay, combined with Chen Er Gou's despicable sneak attacks, they are able to put on a good show on this side. In total there are only two groups fighting, when one side gains the upper hand, the other side will be in trouble. Moreover, Huang Yu Qing, the main culprit, has already been knocked to the ground by Chen Er Gou, crying and sniffling. Compared to being brutally beaten by Wang Hu earlier, he is like a different person. As the saying goes "thirty years on the east of the river, thirty years on the west", but for him it's more like a sudden reversal of fortune.

  It's just that this guy is so sinister, watching a thrilling seafood show isn't enough, and he secretly makes a phone call to summon the police. By the time the police arrive with their noble mission of maintaining law and order, the show has already reached its climax. Most of Chen Erdou's people are still standing, while Huang Yuke's friends who were invited for food and drink have all been knocked to the ground. A few spineless ones are wailing like they're mourning a death, just like Huang Yuke.

  Chen Ergou gave a signal, and Cai Huangmao led the little rascals to quickly retreat from the back door. The security guards all stayed behind, anyway they would have no meaning even if they escaped, unless they didn't want to eat this bowl of rice anymore. This bowl of rice was so delicious, and with good luck, they could even get some extra oil.

  In the chaos, Chen Ergou didn't have many impressive scenes, but at this moment, everyone's gaze involuntarily focused on this young man who wouldn't get a second glance in a crowd. These rich kids who came to SD bar to have fun must have seen the lavish spending of wealthy young masters, seen brazen male and female thieves, and even occasionally seen big shots making a scene on the road, but Chen Ergou's appearance was undoubtedly a fresh thing. Rich people throwing money around or handsome guys acting cool and pretending to be deep aren't things that can make people's eyes light up. Where did this expressionless young man get the audacity for his arrogance and calmness?

  Even as a group of police officers rushed in, the focus of everyone's attention remained still and unmoving. What was even more astonishing was that the police officers who were notorious for being ruthless when dealing with thugs didn't rush to handcuff Chen Er Gou. Instead, they whispered among themselves before a young, chubby officer emerged, his face beaming with a bright smile that had already formed laugh lines despite his youth. If Cai Huang Mao were present, he would have been intimidated by this smiling Buddha who looked like he didn't have any backbone. In reality, dozens of thugs had fallen prey to this smiling tiger's tactics, earning him the title of public enemy number one among the local thugs. The smiling tiger approached Chen Er Gou, who also revealed a smile similar to the officer's. The two men walked off together, arm in arm, like long-lost brothers, leaving the group of thugs summoned by Huang Yu Qian in a state of panic.

  "Chen Ergou?" Xiao Mian Hu asked with a meaningful smile.

  "Today's incident was a mistake, it caused trouble for the police station, I'm really ashamed. I guarantee that from now on, this kind of thing will be resolved privately and won't bother the public servants." Chen Ergou unexpectedly showed a humble attitude like a low-level rascal, with a flattering smile, making his slightly hunched back bend even lower, which made Xiaomianhu, who was only 168 cm tall after secretly wearing height-increasing shoes, feel very comfortable.

  "Your attitude is good, this is the way to talk business, right? As for us, we just came to take a look. To be honest, I've heard of you before, you're quite tough and none of your superiors dare to move against you. Originally, I was thinking of finding some trouble with you, but since you're being so cooperative, I also can't not show some personal favor. However, you people need to go through the formalities at the police station, after all, there are over a dozen people lying on the ground. If we came and didn't do anything about it, our superiors would have something to say." Laughing Tiger said some realistic words.

  "I have a brother lying on the ground, need to take care of him. As for the bar, I can bring a few people away, but do you think I'm just giving up?" Chen Ergou said with a sly smile, revealing a hint of playfulness.

  The smiling tiger's smile was slightly stiff, and his mood was unpredictable.

  Xiao Yao didn't know when he walked over, handed Chen Ergou a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes and a lighter. Chen Ergou naturally took out a cigarette for Xiao Mianhu to light up, saying: "I'm the one who's been covering this scene, sympathize with me, it's not easy to make a living outside, I've only shown my face a few times, and now I've brought you into the bureau, from now on this area won't be able to mix."

  The smiling tiger puffed out a smoke ring, nodded, and with a serious tone said: "Don't let it happen again!"

  Chen Ergou smiled and nodded repeatedly, making Xiao Yao stare at him with wide eyes.

  The police finally took away more than a dozen people, including Huang Yuqing. The SD bar only symbolically took away a few security guards. Chen Ergou stood unscathed in the corner of the bar, scanning the surroundings like a black panther patrolling its territory. For some reason, Chen Ergou found that once he had contact with new people and things, he easily developed a kind of immunity. For example, after being with Cao Jing for a while, when he faced other beautiful women, he felt somewhat nonchalant. The second time he saw the police, he didn't have the same fear as the first time. If Cao Jing were there, she would tell Chen Ergou the correct answer: this is called adaptability, and its coefficient is terrifyingly high.

  "Brother Dog."

  Xiao Yao's timid voice trembled as she shouted, today's turmoil in the bar was caused by her, and being fired wasn't unjustified. Having witnessed Chen Ergou's change of face and skillful hands, this beauty who had a reputation in several nearby third-rate universities became even more fearful and reverent. She, who had never had the chance to interact with any big shots, learned for the first time what it meant to be at someone's mercy.

  "That pack of cigarettes was well handed over, today's losses were originally going to be counted on your head, but since you've made up for it, I'll help you explain to the boss." Chen Ergou said with a smile, trying his best not to glance at this troublemaker. In fact, Chen Ergou had already felt a sense of accomplishment and was maintaining this lofty image, so he looked over at Wang Hu's miserable figure, only to see an unbelievable scene: this guy was sitting on the ground eating from a large fruit platter with great relish. Even Chen Ergou found it hard to imagine how much tenacity this guy needed to survive. He walked over and squatted down, asking "Nothing wrong?"

  Wang Hu's mouth was stuffed with fresh grapes and he shook his head.

  "Really nothing?" Chen Ergou said uncertainly.

  Wang Hu nodded slightly, not forgetting to smooth out his signature middle-parted hairstyle with one hand. At this moment, Chen Ergou finally confirmed that this guy who was as hard to kill as a cockroach really had nothing going on.

  "Can we buy genuine rose oil now?" Chen Er Gou asked the little girl beside him.

  Xiao Yao nodded and ran out of the bar before Chen Ergou could say anything.

  "Let's go for a walk." Chen Ergou suggested patiently after waiting for Wang Hu to finish eating a large fruit platter.

  Two people sat down under a street lamp on the side of the road outside the bar, Wang Hu's face was bruised and swollen, and he had been walking crookedly just now, it can be seen that he is not a hidden master of Jin Gang Zhao Tie Bu Shan. Chen Er Gou laughed: "Let you be a hero, stupid, a bunch of women watched you being beaten like a dog, regret to death?"

  "I did it on purpose." Wang Hu smiled and said, with a calm smile that was extremely inconsistent with his image.

  Chen Ergou didn't say anything.

  "I just want to know if you will run."

  Wang Hu leaned against the street lamp, looking at the vehicles on the road, and said: "Actually, I came to find you, not just to let you be a security guard. My relative has big ambitions, wanting to do a big deal that can't be seen in the light of day, stealing some antiques from a villa and selling them to friends in the trade. He's not enough by himself, so he's planning to find someone to partner with. Originally, I was going to persuade you to join him, but now it seems like there's no need. You're doing pretty well, much better than I expected."

  "How dare you tell me, an outsider, about this matter?" Chen Ergou said with a chuckle.

  "I was hesitant at first, but when you followed me and became the second fool to rush up, I thought it was okay to say this."

  "Does he smoke?"

  Wang Huren saw Chen Ergou nod, and from his pocket he pulled out an iron cigarette case, a 12-pack of premium Taiyangdao cigarettes, which were very common in Heilongjiang Province. The cigarettes cost 11 yuan per pack, but there were only three and a half left in the case. The half-cigarette was clearly smoked halfway before being extinguished reluctantly. Wang Huren tossed one to Chen Ergou, pulled out a low-quality lighter with a semi-nude blonde woman printed on it, lit Chen's cigarette, and then lit the remaining half-cigarette for himself. He took a deep drag, exhaled slowly, and blew out a smoke ring. Wang Huren closed his eyes, looking intoxicated, and said: "I always carry two packs of cigarettes in my pocket, 6-yuan Taiyangdao and 11-yuan Taiyangdao. Only friends get the latter from me. I'm a narrow-minded person who doesn't look very pleasant, nor do I have any impressive skills. However, I like to look down on others. After wandering around half of China, I still haven't met anyone who catches my eye. So you're the first one. Don't despise this cigarette."
