Chapter 60: Encountering a Robbery

After coming out of Shengma Park, Zhou Yarou smiled coquettishly and asked Lu Xin, "Why don't we go to the amusement park?"

"Amusement park? There are many attractions there, but it's already afternoon, so we won't be able to play much. Let's go back early." Lu Xin, at heart, was still a homebody and didn't particularly enjoy going out to play.

"All I want is for you to accompany me on the carousel," Zhou Ya hummed the song "Carousel" by Faye Wong: "The carousel has no wings, but it can take you flying everywhere..."

Lu Xin didn't refuse. He knew that for many girls, the carousel symbolized their childhood dreams. When a girl was willing to let a boy accompany her to relive her childhood dreams, it meant she had already accepted him in her heart. In such matters, Lu Xin couldn't act as if he was hard to conquer by women.

Zhou Ya walked ahead, and Lu Xin followed behind her as they left Shengma Park.

Suddenly, a motorcycle sped by. The rider on the motorcycle stared intently at the platinum diamond necklace around Zhou Ya's neck, which sparkled brilliantly in the sunlight. The rider sped past Zhou Ya, reached out a black hand, and grabbed the necklace, yanking it hard. The necklace broke, and the rider fled with it.

Zhou Ya was pulled violently by the robber and fell to her knees, almost collapsing to the ground. Fortunately, she was wearing jeans, or her knees would have been scraped.

Lu Xin immediately started chasing the robber. Although he ran fast, the motorcycle was even faster, and it seemed he couldn't catch up.

If it were an ordinary person, they would have been helpless once they couldn't catch the robber and could only stand there cursing. Even if they called the police, the police probably wouldn't mobilize a large force for a few thousand dollars.

But Lu Xin had the ability to control metal. He saw a lock chain on the robber's motorcycle and, thinking quickly, used his ability to control the chain from a distance, inserting it into the motorcycle's front wheel.

The robber was driving the motorcycle at high speed, feeling triumphant about getting the platinum diamond necklace. Suddenly, he felt something stuck in the front wheel, causing the motorcycle to tip over and crash to the ground.

The robber fell off the motorcycle and was pinned under it.

However, the robber was strong and wearing a helmet, so he wasn't seriously injured.

He pushed the motorcycle away, got up from the ground, and tried to continue riding to escape. But he found that the front wheel wouldn't move at all. He didn't have time to figure out why, and seeing Lu Xin closing in and a police officer nearby, he quickly ran down a small alley with the platinum diamond necklace, moving as fast as a rabbit.

Lu Xin pursued relentlessly and cornered the robber in a dead-end alley.

The robber took off his helmet and sneered at Lu Xin, "Lu Sanjin, are you full of shit? I robbed Xie Fei's girlfriend's necklace, what's it got to do with you!"

Only then did Lu Xin clearly see the robber in front of him. He was muscular, dark-skinned, with small eyes and a large mouth with thick lips, resembling a Filipino. It turned out to be someone he knew, Chen Zhenpeng!

Chen Zhenpeng was the son of a worker at Sanjiang Group. After graduating from a technical secondary school, he didn't want to follow in his father's footsteps and work at Sanjiang Group. Instead, he spent his days hanging out and joined a gang, doing all sorts of shady things. He often extorted and bullied newcomers like Lu Xin, who had no roots in Sanjiang Group and lived in the single dormitory.

Lu Xin, originally a weak college student, couldn't fight the strong and violent Chen Zhenpeng and was afraid of his criminal background. To avoid trouble, he paid Chen Zhenpeng 300 to 500 yuan in protection money every month.

Since gaining the ability to control metal, Lu Xin had thought about giving Chen Zhenpeng a good lesson and making him return the money he had extorted from him, doubled. He had expected Chen Zhenpeng to continue extorting him at the dormitory, but he never thought he would encounter him here today. With new and old grudges mixed together, Lu Xin felt he had to teach him a lesson to vent his anger.

"Chen Zhenpeng, Xie Fei is my classmate and colleague, and his girlfriend is my good friend. How can I stand by and watch you rob her necklace? Hand it over now!" Lu Xin shouted sternly.

"Shit, Lu Sanjin, have you grown a pair of balls or are you just full of water? How dare you shout at me, Brother Peng!" Chen Zhenpeng, who was used to bullying Lu Xin, saw that Lu Xin still looked like a weakling and didn't realize he had gained extraordinary abilities. He continued to insult him, "Lu Sanjin, you're full of shit. I know you got paid, so give me a thousand yuan, or I'll make you pay!"

Hearing Chen Zhenpeng's insults, Lu Xin remembered that Chen Zhenpeng liked to use phrases like "your head is full of shit" or "your brain is full of feces." In the past, even though Lu Xin was angry, he could do nothing. Now, he wanted to make Chen Zhenpeng taste the feeling of having his head full of shit.

"Chen Zhenpeng! Did you grow up eating shit? Your mouth is full of feces!" Lu Xin deliberately provoked Chen Zhenpeng to establish a case of self-defense.

Chen Zhenpeng, who was used to bullying and insulting Lu Xin, was unaccustomed to being insulted back. He flew into a rage, clenched his fists, and lunged at Lu Xin, "Shit, how dare you curse me! I'll beat you to death today!"

Lu Xin didn't dodge or avoid the punch. He let Chen Zhenpeng's fist hit his chest.

Chen Zhenpeng felt his fist hit something as hard as a steel plate, causing his hand to ache. He quickly pulled back his hand and shouted, "Shit, did you put a steel plate in your body?"

Lu Xin sneered, "Fucking, it's your weak kidneys and soft bones!"

Chen Zhenpeng, who looked strong and muscular, was actually a paper tiger. He was very weak in bed, suffering from impotence and premature ejaculation. Both of his wives had cheated on him and eventually left him for other men. He hated being called weak in bed the most. Hearing Lu Xin's insult, he flew into a rage and swung his fist at Lu Xin's face, "Shit, you weakling, I'll beat you into a bloody mess!"

Lu Xin moved like lightning, grabbing Chen Zhenpeng's wrist with one hand and punching him in the stomach with the other.

Lu Xin's body was now as hard as steel. Whenever he attacked or was attacked, his skin would automatically metalize, becoming as hard and strong as high-entropy alloy. His punches were truly iron fists.

Chen Zhenpeng felt as if he had been punched by Optimus Prime, his stomach aching as if it was being torn apart, and he almost vomited everything he had eaten that day.

He screamed in pain, "Lu Sanjin, how did you become so strong!"
