Chapter 20

A sudden anomaly made Du Zhong instinctively enter a state of readiness.

Glancing at the exhausted security guards, he shouted, "All of you, get up and move!"

Du Zhong, of course, knew that the six people were already exhausted. Even if they勉强 walked to the hospital building, they would have no fighting power to speak of.

However, without experiencing some hardships, how could these people grow into the kind of people he wanted them to be!

In this aspect, he would never be lenient.

"Take us there!"

Turning around, Du Zhong said to the young nurse.

"Are they in any condition to go?"

The young nurse asked doubtfully.

"No problem!"

Du Zhong nodded confidently, took the lead, and walked out of the security room.

The six people exchanged glances, all sighing helplessly, and struggled to follow Du Zhong out of the security room.

"What exactly happened?"

On the way, Du Zhong asked the young nurse.

Hearing this, the young nurse immediately showed a bitter smile.

"It's another nurse in our department named Lin Xiaoyue. She has only been interning for a short time, and a person who was injured in a fight was assigned to her ward!"

"None of us expected that the guy would fall in love with Xiaoyue during his hospital stay. However, Xiaoyue already has a boyfriend and directly rejected him!"

"But the guy didn't give up; instead, he became even more persistent. Even after he recovered, he kept coming to the hospital, making Xiaoyue's life miserable and causing all the patients on the floor to complain!"

Du Zhong raised an eyebrow and asked, "Did things escalate today?"

"Yes! In the past, the guy would only wait for Xiaoyue after her shift and then pester her. But yesterday, Xiaoyue couldn't bear his persistence anymore and scolded him harshly!"

"As a result, the guy, out of anger and embarrassment, brought over a dozen thugs today to find trouble with Xiaoyue. They are now waiting for her in the first-floor lobby!"

As they spoke, the group entered the hospital building!

Just as they entered the main door, a group of thugs with yellow hair and iron bars in their hands appeared before Du Zhong, boasting and talking in the lobby.

They had been training and hadn't been patrolling, so they didn't expect anything to go wrong. They didn't think these thugs would get in so quickly.

Fortunately, nothing serious happened, or it would have been hard to explain.

Seeing the group of thugs, Du Zhong snorted coldly and was about to step forward when he noticed the six security guards behind him suddenly stopped, their faces showing embarrassment.

Their eyes, looking at the thugs, were actually somewhat fearful!

They recognized these people, real thugs who engaged in fights and brawls. They weren't afraid of troublemakers, but they were afraid of thugs.

"What are you standing there for? Do your job!"

Seeing this, Du Zhong frowned and shouted.

Under Du Zhong's authority, the six people, led by Wang Hao, smiled bitterly and, with a stiff upper lip, walked forward.

"Hey, the security team is here!"

Seemingly hearing Du Zhong's shout, the group of thugs turned around. When they saw Wang Hao and the others, they suddenly grinned, their faces full of contempt, showing no fear at all.

Hearing this, Wang Hao and the others looked even more embarrassed.

"Wang Hao, are you trying to meddle in my affairs today?"

A guy wearing jeans, with snow-white dyed hair, a black leather jacket, and a muscular, tanned chest, walked forward, his eyes on Wang Hao, and asked with a cold smile.

"Blackie, this is a hospital. Listen to me, don't cause trouble here!"

Wang Hao bit his lip and said awkwardly.

"I'm causing trouble today!"

Blackie laughed coldly and said with a dark face, "This is a personal matter. Whoever dares to intervene, don't blame me, Brother Black! I'll give you some face, so get lost if you know what's good for you, or I'll beat you too!"

"Blackie, you're going too far!"

Wang Hao's face changed, and he said sternly.

"Whether it's too far or not, I decide! Get lost! Don't bother me!"

With Blackie's words, a group of thugs surrounded them, their faces full of mockery and provocation, staring at Wang Hao and the others!

Seeing this, Du Zhong sighed inwardly.

Only Wang Hao had a bit of the spirit a man should have; the others didn't!

They were all lacking, lacking in what a man should have!

Du Zhong knew they couldn't handle it, so he stepped forward directly.

"Kid, you want to step up?"

Blackie saw Du Zhong, dressed in a security uniform, walk out and laughed disdainfully, asking.

"I don't want to step up; I just want to ask you a question!"

Du Zhong smiled lightly and said, "Are you here to see a doctor or to cause trouble?"

"What I'm here for is none of your business!"

Blackie looked Du Zhong up and down disdainfully and said, "Go cool off somewhere else!"

"Where I go is none of your business. If you're here to see a doctor, I won't stop you. If you're here to cause trouble,"

At this point, Du Zhong's face changed, and his voice turned icy, "I'll make sure you come in standing and leave lying down!"

One sentence made everyone in the hall freeze.

No one expected a small security captain like Du Zhong to dare to say such things to a notorious thug in Kaiyuan City.

And there were still over a dozen people behind him, all staring with murderous intent!

"Including you guys!"

Du Zhong pointed at the dozen thugs.

Whoosh!

The onlookers were stunned, and the six security guards were dumbfounded.

The captain was really daring to talk big! How could they fight with just the captain and six exhausted security guards? They would definitely end up lying down, and the other side would be fine!

"Good kid, you've got some nerve! You're the first to talk to me like that. I just can't stand the look of you!"

Blackie said with a sinister smile, suddenly tightening his grip on the iron bar, about to smash it into Du Zhong's face.

At that moment, a screeching brake sound suddenly came.

"Brother Black, I've brought the person you wanted!"

A thug ran over and shouted.

Blackie immediately stopped, glaring at Du Zhong fiercely.

The meaning was clear: kid, you're lucky this time, but wait for me!

Du Zhong fully understood the meaning and smiled coldly. If the other side didn't back down, the one lying on the ground would be them.

Blackie ignored Du Zhong and led the group out of the hall, heading towards the van.

Du Zhong frowned and followed.

The others also followed.

Just as they reached the open area in front of the hospital building, the door of the white van opened, and another group of thugs came out. One of them was dragging a bruised and swollen young man, throwing him to the ground.

"Brother Black, the phone!"

Blackie walked to the van, and a thug with yellow hair immediately came forward, handing a phone to Blackie.

Taking the phone, Blackie smiled satisfactorily, looked up at the second and third floors of the hospital, and made a call.

This scene was fully in Du Zhong's sight.

Du Zhong's eyes narrowed.

The sharp analytical skills of a veteran soldier instantly made him realize that the bruised and swollen young man was Lin Xiaoyue's boyfriend!

To dare to kidnap!

These thugs were really bold and reckless!

A cold light flashed in Du Zhong's eyes.

"Lin Xiaoyue, your boyfriend is in my hands. If you want to confirm, you can look down from the window anytime."

When the call connected, Blackie laughed and said, "Don't worry, I won't touch him for now, but if I don't see you in five minutes, it's a different story!"

After saying this, Blackie didn't hang up, seemingly listening to Lin Xiaoyue on the other end.

"Daytime? Hahaha!"

As if hearing something funny, Blackie laughed loudly, saying, "Look at your boyfriend's condition now. If you don't appear in front of me in five minutes, I'll break one of his legs! If you don't come down in ten minutes, I'll break both his legs! If you don't show up in fifteen minutes, I'll break his third leg! I mean it!"

"No! No! I won't kill him, but I'll make him suffer! I'll pay for his medical expenses, no matter how much it costs. If you don't come down, I'll make him lie in bed for the rest of his life!"

After saying this, Blackie didn't listen further and hung up the phone!

The people around were shocked by Blackie's words, not expecting the thug to be so ruthless!

The cold light in Du Zhong's eyes intensified.

Not long after, a hurried running sound came.

Then, a figure appeared before everyone's eyes!

It was a well-built, relatively pretty young nurse with shoulder-length hair.

Running hurriedly, she saw the bruised and swollen young man by the van and immediately cried out, tears streaming down her face.

"Damn it, why are you crying?"

Blackie clenched his teeth, walked forward, and asked angrily, "I treat you so well, why do you look down on me?"

"Do you know I'm sincere with you? Following me won't make you suffer. I'll protect you for life, but you stick to this weakling. Tell me, why? What do I lack compared to him?"

"He's a weakling, a coward. Am I even worse than a coward?"

Blackie got angrier and angrier, almost going crazy by the end!

Thinking of the scene when he found Lin Xiaoyue's boyfriend begging for mercy, he got even angrier.

Such a man was completely useless!

In the eyes of the woman he loved, he was even worse than such a coward?!

"There's no reason, I just like him and don't like you at all!"

Lin Xiaoyue shouted with anger and tears, her eyes full of hatred.

Blackie's face changed, becoming extremely ugly.

Glaring at Lin Xiaoyue, Blackie clenched his teeth, walked to the van, grabbed her boyfriend, and pulled out a two-foot-long sharp blade from behind.

"Tell me, do you want your life or your woman?"

Blackie stared cruelly at the young man, pressing the knife to his neck.

At the moment Blackie pulled out the knife, Du Zhong's body twitched slightly but then held firm, deciding to watch further.

The people around were stunned by Blackie's action, none of them expecting him to really use a knife.

The well-mannered young man couldn't handle such a shock and was immediately dumbfounded!
