Chapter 137 – Tit for Tat (2)
In the People’s Park’s square, the phone of a middle-aged man accompanying a child suddenly rang.
Squinting his eyes, the man fluidly grabbed his phone and connected the call. “Hello?”
“The black spots have separated. Mark A is approaching your location from a four o’clock direction,” an artificial voice came from the other end of the phone.
“Oh.” The middle-aged man smiled and nodded. “No drinking for me. My wife got mad at me yesterday. I’ll rest for a few days. (Do you want me to stop Mark A from approaching the target?)”
“Yes. Don’t let him approach the target. Deal with it as far away as possible.”
“Who did you invite? (Do I have any companions for support?)”
“Yes. The man wearing a gray jacket in your two o’clock direction. Coordinate with him. There’s a substitute following behind Mark A as well.”
“Fine. I’ll head over now. (Taking action now.)”
Disconnecting the call, the middle-aged man smiled as he patted the child before him. He then stood up and walked eastward.
Meanwhile, a short distance away from this middle-aged man was none other than Chen Yu, who was having a fun time with his little sisters.
The middle-aged man did not walk very quickly, maintaining the same pace as the gray jacket man on his left. Very quickly, they arrived at the edge of the plaza and encountered the Asian agent.
When the agent came across the middle-aged man, he turned around and fled without hesitation, only to crash into a figure that suddenly appeared behind him.
“When?”
The agent’s expression changed drastically. Immediately, he raised his right knee and sent a ruthless kick at the figure. Simultaneously, he also unsheathed the weapon hung around his waist.
Instead of retreating, the figure stopping the agent actually moved forward and struck down at the agent’s right thigh with his left elbow. The strike caused the agent to lose his posture and stagger.
At this time, the middle-aged man finally caught up and sent a powerful roundhouse kick at the agent’s waist, the kick sending the agent crashing directly into the billboard on his left.
With perfect timing, the gray jacket man also arrived at the billboard and sent a punch flying at the back of the agent’s head!
“Ugh...”
After letting out a groan, the agent fell to the ground in a daze. Before he could recover, though, the middle-aged man and gray jacket man had already pinned him to the ground.
Meanwhile, after successfully accomplishing his task, the figure that cut off the agent’s retreat immediately turned around and slowly moved forward. And surprisingly, the figure’s attire was actually exactly the same as the middle-aged man!
By the time Chen Yu heard the commotion with his keen hearing and turned to look at its source suspiciously, he only saw the back of that familiar “middle-aged man” walking away...
Poof!
Suddenly, a snowball smacked into Chen Yu’s face, snapping him out of his daze.
“Big Brother, where are you looking? Let’s continue our snowball fight!” Chen Erke shouted while waving the snowball in her hand.
“I’m not playing anymore!” Chen Yu frowned. “You’re allowed to hit me, yet I’m not. This is basically dodgeball, not a snowball fight!”
“You’re older than me. Can’t you humor me?”
“Didn’t you make Third Eldest cry with your snowballs just now? Why didn’t you humor Third Eldest?”
“I’m her Big Sister. It’s only right for me to beat my little sister.”
“I’m your Big Brother. Shouldn’t it be right for me to beat you as well?”
Shaking her head, Chen Erke said, “I’m a girl. You’re a boy. How can it be the same?”
“You’re going to get a beating sooner or later with that logic.’
Bending down, Chen Yu rolled up a giant snowball. Just as he was about to teach the bratty Chen Erke a lesson, Chen Sanke, who stood some distance away, wiped away her tears and grabbed a handful of snow. She then dashed forward and sent a flying kick at Chen Erke.
“Ah!”
Chen Erke cried out in surprise as she fell to the ground, her body sliding three meters across the snow. Just as she was about to get up, Chen Sanke suddenly smacked a snowball into her face, sending her to the ground once more.
“Wah!” Chen Erke instantly burst into tears and started fighting with Chen Sanke.
“Nice, Third Eldest!” Chen Yu raised his fist in excitement. Cheering, “Don’t fight empty-handed! There’s snow on the ground! Use it to enhance your damage!”
Meanwhile, when Chen Yike, who was silently making a snowman some distance away, heard the commotion, she hurriedly ran over to stop the fight.
“Eldest, go away. Don’t interfere. It’s their snowball fight.”
“They are fighting!”
“No.” Shaking his head, Chen Yu obstinately said, “Here, it’s considered a snowball fight.”
Chen Yike: “...”
With his hands resting on his hips, Chen Yu revealed a smile on his face as he watched the fight between his three little sisters.
This was his warm and harmonious family...
Back when he chose to conceal his identity, wasn’t it to protect this free and “peaceful” life?
“C-Can I join in?”
Suddenly, a familiar voice entered Chen Yu’s ears. Turning around, he saw Little Peach shyly approaching him while carrying a large plastic bag.
“Sure.”
“Thank you.”
In front of Chen Yu’s three little sisters, Little Peach acted as if she did not know Chen Yu. Opening her plastic bag, she said, “Little Big Brother, I’ve saved up many snowballs. Take half and let’s have a snowball fight.”
“Okay...” Chen Yu instinctively felt that something was amiss. Picking up one of the snowballs in the bag and giving it a squeeze, Chen Yu’s complexion darkened immediately. “How is this iceball a snowball? Are you sure you want a snowball fight and not a ‘bloody’ fight?”
“If it’s not sturdy, it’ll break when it hits the body,” Little Peach reasoned.
“...”
After a moment of silence, Chen Yu forcefully split the “ice” ball apart, and his complexion darkened even further.
There was actually a rock hidden inside the iceball...
Chen Yu: “...”
Little Peach: “To increase damage.”
“Go home.”
...
The four humans and one robot played in the park for one whole hour before they were satisfied and decided to leave.
Shaking the snow off his body, Chen Yu faced Little Peach and said, “We’re leaving. We’ll play again next time.”
“Are you going home already?” Longingly, Little Peach said, “Let’s play a little longer.”
“We’re not playing anymore. Let’s go.”
“Okay, then...”
Chen Yike politely waved her hand and said, “Goodbye, Big Sister.”
Mimicking her elder sister, Chen Erke also waved her hand and said, “Goodbye, Big Sister.”
Meanwhile, Chen Sanke tilted her head up and stared at Little Peach with a confused look on her face.
“Goodbye, everyone. Let’s play again next time.” Little Peach bowed before turning around and leaving toward the nearby grove.
“Let’s go.” Grabbing Chen Sanke’s hand, Chen Yu waved his hand and said, “Time to head to the vet.”
The Chen family’s four young masters talked and laughed as they walked, and in no time at all, they arrived at the veterinary clinic.
“I want to give my dog a vaccine shot. Can it be done now?” Chen Yu asked as he entered the clinic.
“Yes.” A middle-aged woman wearing an old and dirty white coat nodded. She then retrieved two vaccine needles from a nearby refrigerator and looked around before asking, “Where’s the dog?”
Stunned, Chen Yu subconsciously looked at Chen Erke, “Where’s the dog?”
Chen Erke looked toward Chen Yike, “Where’s the dog?”
Chen Yike looked at Chen Sanke, “Where’s the dog?”
And Chen Sanke looked toward Chen Yu, “Where’s the dog?”
The middle-aged woman: “...”
...
“You’re finally here. This dog knows how to find the police, yet why doesn’t it know how to find its own home?”
Under the guidance of “eye-witnesses,” the Chen family’s four young masters walked into the local police station...
With tears in his eyes, one of the police officers manning the station pushed the husky to Chen Yu and said, “Hurry up and take it away. This dog has been going inside the station. Also, not only did it eat up all the female staffs’ snacks, but it even knows how to drink beer and eat nuts!”
Chen Yu: “S-Sorry for the trouble, officer. Do you need me to compensate you?”
“No need. Just take it away quickly.”
By the time Chen Yu returned home after paying another visit to the veterinary clinic, it was already past five o’clock in the evening.
After entering his bedroom, Chen Yu quickly fetched Little Peach back using the Interstellar Portal. Once that was done, he sprawled himself on top of his bed, feeling exhausted physically and mentally.
“What a tiring day...”
After resting for a while, he raised his watch and swiped across it to inspect the income he got from today’s livestream.
He had gained a total of 1.09 million viewers from the five livestream rooms.
Moreover, this is the result obtained after the various governments and broadcasting platforms had done their best to hinder him. He had relied entirely on the audience promoting his channel by word of mouth to achieve his current popularity. This could already be considered a fantastic result.
Meanwhile, combined with the previous 12 points he had, he now had 121 points to spend.
“What a big sum.”
Chen Yu felt satisfied as he looked at the three digits displayed on the screen. Immediately, he visited the Transdimensional Store intending to splurge.
