Chapter 27, and here I am!
"Wait, is our benefactor really that powerful?"
Lin Kun stopped halfway through his charge because he saw Zhou Huai wielding the famous sword, Lightning Pill, wildly slashing and knocking out the four burly men wielding swords.
"Luckily I ran fast last night."
Lin Kun murmured to himself.
"Brother Chicken, do you want to just collapse and go to sleep too?"
Zhou Huai turned around and saw Lin Kun and the two men with yellow hair not far away.
"My benefactor has misunderstood. I came to help, but you were too amazing and I didn't have time."
Lin Kun quickly explained.
"Don't call me my benefactor, I have a name."
Zhou Huai put away the famous sword, Dianguangwan, walked straight past him, and returned to Ma Yurou.
"Brother Huai... Brother Huai."
Lin Kun was momentarily dazed and called out.
"Rou (Sister)...why are you crying?"
Zhou Huai took out a piece of paper from the system space and handed it to Ma Yurou.
"Fool."
Ma Yurou took the tissue and quickly turned away, avoiding looking at him.
The next second, Chen Yao ran up to Zhou Huai, threw herself into his arms, and hugged him tightly.
"Honey, you really scared me just now, but you're amazing."
Chen Yao looked up at Zhou Huai with an expression of admiration.
"Silly girl, I wouldn't have rushed up there if I wasn't confident."
Zhou Huai put one arm around her and gently stroked her head with the other.
Ma Yurou, who was wiping away her tears, turned around and saw this scene, and found herself quite envious of Chen Yao.
"I really want him to hold me like this and pat my head."
"No, no, I can't think like that."
"Yaoyao told me that she and Zhou Huai have liked each other for a long time."
With mixed feelings, Ma Yurou turned around again.
But then, police sirens blared.
A police car pulled up, and the door opened, revealing Ding Xiaoshuai and a policeman Zhou Huai had never seen before (Jiang Meng).
The two men were originally driving this police car alongside another police car that was escorting Ma Qiang, Ma Gao, and Ma Da to headquarters.
The three men were very stubborn and were interrogated at the Chengnan branch of the police station all night, but they couldn't get anything out of them.
Coupled with the fact that the branch office was short-staffed, Huang Huifeng, the captain of the criminal investigation team, made this decision after attending a meeting at the headquarters in the morning.
While driving through this area, I received a call from Qi Yue, the operator of the branch office, saying that someone had reported a crime on Pinghu Outer Street, so I rushed over first.
Seeing the police car arrive, Lin Kun decisively ran into the alley they had just crossed, and Huang Mao did the same.
"Zhou Huai, what's going on?"
Ding Xiaoshuai pointed to the four burly men lying on the ground and the middle-aged woman and asked.
The situation was urgent, and Chen Yao was worried about Zhou Huai, so she couldn't speak clearly on the phone.
"They were human traffickers. This woman pretended to ask for directions to lure my friend here so they could kidnap her. I discovered her, chased after them, and knocked them all unconscious."
Zhou Huai briefly and quickly recounted what had happened.
"Zhou Huai, you're too strong! You took on all four of them by yourself, and they were all armed with knives."
Ding Xiaoshuai got excited again.
"Hurry up and take him back. He'll wake up soon. It's almost time for our PE teacher to take attendance, so we'll be leaving now."
Zhou Huai waved his hand and called Chen Yao and Ma Yurou to leave together.
"Brother Ding, aren't we taking them back to the station to give their statements?"
Jiang Meng is a new police officer who just reported for duty today.
"No need, he made an appointment with Captain Wu, he'll be here this afternoon, and we'll record together then."
Ding Xiaoshuai shook his head.
"Shall we record together?"
Jiang Meng was even more confused.
"I'll tell you later. I'll call Sister Qi first."
Ding Xiaoshuai smiled and took out his phone, ready to call for backup. These five people were too many for the two of them to take back.
"Yao-mei, you two go back and gather first. Come find me after school."
The three of them had returned to the entrance of the closed movie theater.
"Uh-huh."
Chen Yao tiptoed and quickly kissed Zhou Huai, then pulled the absent-minded Ma Yurou back.
Zhou Huai decided not to go back. He was a celebrity at the school now, and he was the worst person to deal with this.
[An urgent mission has been issued:
[Congratulations, host, on completing the mission. You are rewarded with three chances to draw a prize.]
[The host assisted the police in apprehending five human traffickers, performing flawlessly. An additional lottery draw is awarded as a reward.]
"Doubao, why was this mission released late? And you didn't maintain it?"
Zhou Huai was somewhat curious.
[It was supposed to be released, but the owner crushed the save crystal a second early.]
"No wonder the mission difficulty is B."
[Master, although save crystals are one-time use items, they're not easy to obtain.]
"It's okay, Doubao, let's continue the lottery."
[Okay, master. 】
The giant lottery roulette wheel has reappeared…
[Congratulations, host, you have obtained a one-time use item,
"I got it this time."
Zhou Huai was beaming with pride.
【...】
[Congratulations, host, you have obtained a one-time use item,

【Master, why didn't you ask me this time?】
"No need to ask, I think it was Sister Wu who saved Sister Rou back then."
Based on what Wu Liuting said before, Lin Kun always managed to catch her doing something wrong.
Lin Kun and Huang Mao were probably doing something bad in the alley just now.
With seven or eight minutes left before school ended, Zhou Huai slipped back into the movie theater and randomly found a seat against the wall.
He needs to close his eyes and rest.
He had a lot going on today, running around, climbing up and down, flying around, and even getting into a fight. He's really tired.
Meanwhile, at Sun Yichang's home.
"Brother, I need to find my phone. Can you take me to Yulong Temple?"
Sun Yichang felt that her phone must have fallen on the mountaintop.
"You stay home and have noodles, I'll cook them for you right now."
Sun Yixing sighed softly.
Shortly after Zhou Huai left, Sun Yichang and her mother Han Jiaren had a fight at home.
The incident started when Sun Yichang said she wanted to go to school, but her mother wouldn't allow it.
"There are only ten days left. If you go to school, the teachers won't teach anything new. Just stay home and study. Your brother was the top scorer in our Asagi City's college entrance exam. If you don't understand something, just ask him. Anyway, he's a senior now and doesn't need to go to school."
"Mom, you still don't believe me. I'm not dating Zhou Huai. It really was what I said this morning."
"I told you, it's just for these ten days or so. After the college entrance exam, I definitely won't care about you anymore. You can do whatever you want then."
"Mom, since you haven't been home much, have my grades dropped? I always come home early, I don't go out to play at night, and I haven't been to any other classmates' houses."
"You never used to argue with your mother."
Sun Yichang was too lazy to say anything more, so she locked herself in her room.
Sun Yixing quickly stepped in to mediate, telling his mother to go shopping with her friends to relax, and promising that he wouldn't let his sister run around.
After Han Jiaren left, Sun Yixing went to persuade Sun Yichang to open the door.
"I don't want to eat, I have no appetite."
Sun Yichang closed her bedroom door again.
