Amidst the bustling crowd, Cheng Su and Wang Bo boarded the bus, barely finding seats at the back of the vehicle, placing their luggage by their feet. Suddenly, they noticed the commotion inside the bus, with everyone looking outside.
Cheng Su and the others followed their gaze, and their expressions changed immediately.
Outside, a few hooligans in flared jeans with golden dyed hair and tattooed arms were chasing a man with long knives.
The man stood no chance against so many people. Before long, he was caught, kicked to the ground, and repeatedly struck with long knives, blood spilling everywhere.
Inside the bus, screams rang out one after another, and everyone watching turned pale.
Cheng Su’s face was ashen. She turned her eyes away, her hands shaking uncontrollably like a sieve as she clutched her pants.
"They’re killing someone, my God!" someone shouted, immediately silenced by another, afraid that those people might rush in and start slashing.
Wang Bo and Zhao Da were also ashen-faced at the sight. Why, why was this happening, and why was nobody stepping forward to help?
But how could they help? Who dared to intervene?
No one knew how many times the man was slashed before the police arrived, and the hooligans fled like a swarm. As for the man’s fate, it seemed grim and uncertain.
"These damn thugs are hacking people again!" The ticket inspector, holding a bunch of tickets, glanced outside, nonchalantly continuing to sell tickets as if this was a common sight, speaking in the local dialect.
Cheng Su swallowed hard.
Wang Bo and Zhao Da, visibly terrified, looked at Cheng Su: "President Cheng..."
Cheng Su forced a smile and said, "It’s okay, let’s be careful!"
