Qin Fen stood by the golden beach as he took the towel and police uniform that Lin Feng had driven back to get. He asked, “Which Qin Fen?”
“Which Qin Fen?” That twenty-two troublesome policemen replied unanimously, “The Qin Fen that dared to disobey Earth Martial God Song Wendong’s order, claiming to challenge all the heroes in the world and never lost in any challenge!”
“Oh, that is me.”
Qin Fen put on the heavy lead suit. His tone was very calm, as if this was not a very important thing.
The twenty-two troublesome policemen found it unbelievable. Although they had guessed that he was the man in rumors, now, they had finally confirmed it. He was so calm when admitting that his calmness made them felt a little unreal.
At the seaside, there was only the susurrus of sea breeze and waves hitting the beach. The twenty-two troublesome policemen were staring at Qin Fen blankly.
After a while, Wu Hui broke this quietness on the beach with a scream, “Idol!”
“Idol!” Twenty-one troublesome policemen roared at the same time. That warm vigor gave Qin Fen a cold shudder.
“Idol?” Qin Fen was a bit puzzled. Since the words of Song Wendong were out, he had encountered challengers that visited him almost every day. How was it possible there were people who called him idol?
Yu Xiaole smiled happily, “Captain, don’t you know? Since your matter had been spread out quietly, people like us who think that we are not qualified to challenge do not support Earth Martial God but you! Think about it, almost everyone in the Federation regards Qilin as God, and you are brave enough to provoke the authority of God, how fierce that is!”
“Yes, indeed!” Lin Feng looked proudly, “When this matter spread among the ordinary people, there will be far more people who support you than those who want to challenge you! Haha, I didn’t expect our captain is someone who dared to revolt against Qilin. You are qualified to be our leader!”
Those twenties troublesome policeman had complacent expressions and nodded continuously, “Branch captain, the strength you showed just now was so strong! How do you practice? Can you teach us?”
Qin Fen put on the police uniform and looked at the troublesome policeman around him once again. His heart was filled with faint happiness. He thought that he had to use a few skills to tame these recalcitrant boys. He did not expect that after Ge Bing came to challenge, he was able to keep his means inadvertently.
“Haha…” Qin Fen turned back and looked at the endless sea and sighed, Earth Martial God! You still underestimate the heart of the new generation. Your words are not respected by everyone as an imperial edict. We also have our own thoughts and wills. This is not a rebellion! It’s about self, the self we have, not following blindly!
These troublesome policeman’s eyes flashed a very faint yet strange look almost at the same time. Everyone found that when the branch captain turned and faced the sea, the exhausted aura from his body was replaced by a heroic aura.
“If you all really want me to teach you.” Qin Fen turned and looked at everyone with a small smile. His expression then became serious, “All of you must have preparation in mind, my training will be very hard.”
The troublesome policemen under Qin Fen’s look felt a faint chill down their spines. They felt like a mouse being stared by a cat.
Wu Hui was the first person to recover from that shock. He laughed quickly and said, “Haha! To celebrate that we have a branch captain today, should we treat captain to a good meal?”
“Yes!”
“Exactly!”
“It makes sense!”
Everyone surrounded Qin Fen and shouted at the same time as they walked toward the twenty magnetic flying cars parked by the beach.
Although these car models weren’t as gorgeous as Song Jia’s with the shape of the flying saucer, these cars were also good cars. It was apparent from their car that these people did not simply rely on the salary from work. If they did, they would not be able to even afford the shell of a car.
“Captain, hop in mine, definitely faster!”
“Captain, I am the fastest in our team!”
“Damn! With your broken skill, the fastest to have a car crash? Captain, how about my car…?”
Qin Fen looked at everyone who was fighting to invite him. He patted the latest Porsche’s Nine Elevent Magnetic Flying Car next to him, “I’ll get on this! And, from now on, you guys can’t drive fast.”
“Ah?” Everyone was surprised.
Qin Fen pointed the police rank on the shoulder, “We are the police, not street racers. Don’t forget that the speed of seventy yards can make people fly high if knocked down.”
Seventy yards? The troublesome policemen sneered because they knew that the captain was referencing to a traffic accident that occurred not too long ago. The speed of a hundred yards knocked people out, but because that family had power, it was changed to seventy yards in the reports.
“No problem! You are the boss, whatever you say.”
Twenty-two bald heads nodded together. Qin Fen felt that the reflection of these heads was really somewhat spectacular.
“Go, go! Let’s eat!”
Wu Hui hailed everyone to get in the car. If there were anything at the police station on weekdays, the other departments would be responsible for it. As long as they were not skipping work every day, no one would care about them.
Yu Xiao sat by the side of Qin Fen and stepped on the accelerator. The latest Porsche Nine Eleven magnetic flying car rose into the air. The other twenty-one different models of magnetic flying cars lifted together and added to the gorgeous scenery of the beach.
“Branch captain…”
The phone on Qin Fen suddenly rang. Yu Xiao puckered his mouth and stopped talking.
“Qin Fen…”
On the other side of the phone was the voice of Du Peng. Qin Fen was a little surprised. The person who was usually more silent than he was had called.
“Thank you…” Du Peng was a little silent, “The Bone-Rejuvenate Skin-Activate Pill is very effective. My body recovered very fast.”
Qin Fen smiled. Since Fei Wei could be praised by the chef instructor, it was obvious that the Bone-Rejuvenate Skin-Activate Pill would not be useless.
“Also…” Du Peng’s voice trembled, “Thank you for your Wuji Pill.”
Wuji Pill! Qin Fen nodded. It was a good thing among good things. No matter how silent Du Peng was, when he got the Wuji Pill, he still couldn’t control the excitement. Otherwise, his voice would not have trembled.
Wuji Pill improved the physique of a martial artist to a certain extent! Although Du Peng’s physique was good, it was far from being superior. Otherwise, he would not have been treated as a human cauldron, nor he would have lost to Zeus Mark in the Recruit Tournament after absorbing Du Zhanpeng’s legacy.
Qualification wise, Du Peng was not considered great! A Wuji Pill was likely to open an important door for him on the path of martial arts.
Qin Fen looked at the scenery outside the window as it changed rapidly. There were soft lights in his eyes as he remembering the comrades from Australia’s recruit camp, “You are welcome. I got it accidentally. Our squad will rely on you after I left.”
“I will.” Du Peng looked at the Wuji Pill in the box and said softly, “Oh yeah, the sister of Snakehead is in Tianbei…”
Snakehead? Qin Fen could smell a trace of the smoke of war. He flashed back to the rescue of the scientist with the nano battle suit technology on the island, with someone he once trained hard with on a rainforest island.
The bombing that day was something almost done by Snakehead.
“Snakehead! You still have two sisters waiting for you to take care of them!”
The roar of his comrades seemed to have passed through time and space. Qin Fen could hear the shouts full of courage from that day in his ear.
“Snakehead’s sister is in Tianbei City. I almost forgot about this.” A faint smile crept upon Qin Fen’s lips. He once again remembered the day on the rainforest island in his mind. Every time Snakehead talked about his sisters during the training, he always had a warm smile.
“Snakehead, let me be your brother-in-law in the future!”
“Snakehead, let me be your brother-in-law!”
“Snakehead, what would you think if I become your brother-in-law?”
“Hahaha…”
At sunset by the beach, a group of young recruits had their bodies covered with black mud. They held steel guns in their hands, leaning against the trunk powerlessly, and shouted to kick up a fuss from time to time.
“Haha…” Qin Fen closed his eyes and recalled the scene after the training that was painful at that time but very warm right now. The smile on his face was full of sweetness, “Things seem like they just happened yesterday…”
Qin Fen opened his eyes again. His eyes had become teary. Snakehead did not throw that god damn grenade but still died on the road to charge.
“Snakehead’s name is Yang Ziwen.” Du Peng’s tone was a bit heavier, “I had inquired about this before. His sisters are called Yang Ruo Ruo, Yang Xi Xi. Their address is…”
Qin Fen hung up the phone and could not calm down for a long time. His mind was full of the training scenes back on that rainforest island. They were fatigued but at the same time full of pride between men.
Twenty-two magnetic flying cars stopped slowly in front of a small restaurant. After that, twenty-two bald heads came out from the cars. Passersby’s attentions were caught as they watched them. They were afraid secretly that was this some triad organization.
Qin Fen looked up at the small restaurant and laughed again. These troublesome guys were really convincing. If they were fooling around with the leader, they would go to a high-end big hotel where one could not eat anything. Only when they really intended to treat someone as one of them would they would choose this kind of small restaurant that was affordable and tasty.
“Boss, same as usual!”
Yu Xiaosheng shouted. The boss who was calculating the money behind the counter looked up and saw everyone’s head. This middle-aged man who was in his fifties was stunned.
“You… you guys this is…” The restaurant owner looked at Wu Hui and then at Lin Feng, “What happened to the hair…?”
“Our branch captain doesn’t like policemen who keep long hair.” Wu Hui pulled out a chair for Qin Fen, “So, we cut our hair.”
“Captain?” That middle-aged boss in his fifties couldn’t help but look at Qin Fen a few times. Every time these guys were eating here, they would speak about fooling some captain. Now, they brought their captain here? Who is he? How did he manage to convince these guys?
Qin Fen looked at Yu Xiao’s face doubtfully and looked at the situation where the boss was very familiar with them.
“Haha…” Yang Xiao was scratching the back of his head. There was a shyness on his face that could rarely found on them, “One time, we went out to eat and found that the food here was nice. Then we kept coming. In the end…”
Yang Xiao sped up the scratching on the back of his head. The shyness on his face increased. Then, he heard the boss say, “They asked me why, even though my food was good, the business wasn’t? At that time, my restaurant was often visited by the underworld who came to collect a protection racket. I didn’t want to give them. So they would often bring a bunch of people, reading newspapers in my restaurant without having anything, just sitting for the whole day…”
“Boss, that is enough. Don’t say it. It is not worthy to even speak about it.” The troublesome policemen shouted together. Qin Fen found that these people were somewhat shy.
“How is it not meaningful?” The boss smiled happily, “Without all of you, my restaurant would have long been shut down.”
Qin Fen became interested and asked, “They have detained the protection racket?”
“No such thing.” The boss shook his head repeatedly, “These sly underworld members leave every time they see the police. They don’t smash tables and chairs in the restaurant. It is useless even when reported to the police.”
“So to say…” Qin Fen touched his chin, “They used unconventional methods?”
“Unconventional?” The boss nodded. That sincere face of his was smiling with some affability, “They didn’t wear police uniforms that day but dressed as hooligans. Then, they claimed territory from the underworld people. After they got into a fight with those people, they didn’t fight back. After everyone got beaten up, they showed their gun and police ID card.”
Puff…
Qin Fen spat out half of the tea from his mouth. He looked at Lin Feng and the others with admiration. Although the practice of these troublesome guys seemed like a farce, it could be really effective.
“Assaulting police, arresting, and robbing guns…” Yu Xiao smirked, “These crimes are enough for them to spend some time inside and reflect on it.”
“Captain, why do you look at us like this?” Wu Hui shouted and dragged his words, “We are also policemen. Maintaining the benefits of the citizens is what we should do.”
Policemen! Qin Fen nodded repeatedly. Right! All of them are police! They just did what’s within their responsibilities. Why does it give people a feeling of excitement?
“Hey, actually, there were no other ways…” Lin Feng shook his head repeatedly, “Our initial thought was to give those guys a good beating. However, at that time, we thought that there were a few who had reached the meteor level. If we really get into fights, we really afford to not have the advantage. So…”
“Yeah yeah…”
All the troublesome policemen nodded repeatedly. Nowadays, people from the underworld also knew martial arts! When those who violated laws and committed crimes got caught, their martial arts were abolished. However, sometimes, if there was no evidence, it would be very difficult to arrest them.
While chatting, the waiter had begun to serve the dishes on the table and bottles of juice.
That’s right! Juice, not beer or white wine!
Qin Fen nodded again lightly. These troublesome policemen were better than he thought! They were mischievous, they disobeyed management willfully, and found ways to drive away the leader. However, it did not mean that they had no sense of responsibility. It was clear from the moment they entered and yelled “same as usual” to the moment the drinks were served. They also knew that driving after drinking was not allowed.
It was common sense to not drive after drinking! However, many people still did it intentionally, which was an act that did not regard the lives of others as lives. A lot of appreciation were added in the eyes of Qin Fen when looking at these troublesome policemen.
