Upon witnessing the unfolding scene before him, Xiao Yifei’s eyes suddenly flashed with a chilling gleam. His icy gaze swept across the entire train carriage, and every Japanese delegate who met his stare instantly fell silent, not daring to utter a single sound!
The icy expression in Xiao Yifei’s eyes truly sent a shiver through their hearts.
Suddenly, the whole carriage plunged into dead silence.
After his gaze flickered for a moment, Xiao Yifei turned his head back.
"Professor Nangong, are you alright?"
He looked at Nangong, who was holding his waist, and asked with concern.
Nangong shook his head gently at Xiao Yifei, then he sighed, his expression not looking too good.
Just as Xiao Yifei turned back, the carriage suddenly burst into laughter once more, along with boisterous chatter, as if to shake off the awkwardness of being silenced by Xiao Yifei’s glance just moments before. Their laughter this time seemed even more exaggerated.
Liu Shengchuan turned his head to give Xiao Yifei a cold look.
Nangong sighed again. Under any analysis, it was evident that the actions of the Japanese delegates were deliberate, but this very fact made Nangong feel quite depressed. Not only had they suffered a blow, but Nangong had not expected such high-calibre individuals from Japan to behave in a way that was hardly better than that of street ruffians!
And where did they get the courage to engage in such dangerous behavior on the train? Did they truly not fear an accident?
"Professor Nangong, as long as you are unharmed, that’s what matters."
Seeing Nangong’s condition, a trace of worry crossed Xiao Yifei’s eyes. After speaking, a cold smile appeared on his face, "You don’t need to worry about what comes next."
However, Nangong was taken aback upon hearing Xiao Yifei’s words. He turned his puzzled gaze toward Xiao Yifei, not understanding what he meant.
Right then, the Japanese delegate sitting behind Xiao Yifei flashed a hint of malicious intent in his eyes. After signaling to his companion with a hand gesture, he suddenly launched a kick aimed directly at the back of Xiao Yifei’s seat!
Apparently venting his dissatisfaction from the fear incited by Xiao Yifei’s gaze earlier, he kicked with much more force than he had when kicking the back of Nangong’s seat earlier.
It seemed that this was the method they had used to nearly send Nangong tumbling to the floor just now.
Such actions had moved beyond the realm of pranks and could be considered blatant acts of retaliation!
Just as the Japanese delegate sitting behind Xiao Yifei kicked viciously toward Xiao Yifei’s seatback with a sinister expression, Xiao Yifei, who was sitting in front, suddenly revealed a cold smile.
"Really pushing your luck, taking kindness for weakness!"
His eyes flashed with a hint of cold light, "Do you think your petty actions could frighten anyone?"
At that moment, Nangong was sitting next to Xiao Yifei, completely unaware of what was happening. His eyes were wide open, still pondering everything that had just transpired, including the words spoken by Xiao Yifei, which he had yet to understand.
And now, seeing the action of the Japanese delegate sitting behind Xiao Yifei, a commotion erupted from the rear of the carriage. Everyone’s eyes were filled with schadenfreude as they stared straight at Xiao Yifei, their faces brimming with a mocking smile, all eager to witness the unfolding drama!
Liu Shengchuan sat on the other side, his gaze brimming with mockery. He coldly glanced at Xiao Yifei, then with a disdainful curl of his lips, he turned his head away to look forward, feeling very pleased about the situation, but he chose not to say much.
After all, Liu Shengchuan considered his own status too high to bother stooping to Xiao Yifei’s level.
Nevertheless, he was very much looking forward to what would happen next. The thought of teaching this arrogant kid a lesson filled him with a sense of satisfaction!
Just as everyone was eager to see what would unfold next,
A dull thumping sound suddenly erupted. At that moment, everyone in the carriage who had feigned ignorance to avoid suspicion now wore smirks of schadenfreude and watched eagerly in Xiao Yifei’s direction.
Although the sound was strange, as it did not resemble that of a foot kicking the back of a seat, it did not raise much alarm among the other members of the Japanese delegation.
However, what happened next sent a wave of panic and shouting through the carriage!
But the loudest and most piercing came from a cry of pain. Amidst the unintelligible chatter that followed, one thing was clear from all the voices that rose—pain and anguish!
Then, from the back of the carriage, more unintelligible Japanese followed. Although it was indecipherable, the tone of worry, tension, and even panic was all too clear!
When Nangong heard the commotion from the back, he frowned slightly. Although he had initially not wanted to involve himself with the situation behind him, curiosity got the better of him, and he turned his head.
But the moment Nangong turned, his pupils dilated in shock, and he froze.
He saw that the member of the Japanese delegation who had been mocking Xiao Yifei just moments ago was now contorting his face in excruciating pain, making it grotesquely twisted!
Furthermore, Nangong could clearly see that the delegation member’s leg, which he had been holding up towards Xiao Yifei’s seat back, was still raised even when Nangong turned around.
Because of his angle, Nangong couldn’t see exactly what had happened, but the pool of bright red blood on the floor told him something serious had occurred!
At that moment, Nangong stood up sharply. First, he looked at Xiao Yifei in surprise, then he turned his head to look at the rear seats.
Only when he turned his head did Nangong finally see what had happened.
The leg that the member of the Japanese delegation had kicked out with full force was now impaled by a sharp iron spike! The spike had entered from the bottom of this person’s foot and emerged from the top! Nᴇw ɴovel chaptᴇrs are published on novel[f]ire.net
Blood oozed continuously from the wound, quickly forming a small pool on the floor.
Most bizarrely, the tip of the iron spike was slightly bent. Because of this curve, the foot was effectively trapped on the spike, immobilized.
The spike was rusted all over. With such a rusty spike, it was certain that if not treated quickly, the wound would surely get infected!
