The evil forces roaming the heavens

Chapter 1535 Zhang Cheng: "So, your name is Hong Sanyuan?"

On the dimly lit streets, military police soldiers patrolled back and forth continuously.
Approaching the roadblock, the military police quickly stepped forward and asked, "Who is it?"

"It's me, Kobayashi-kun!"

Zhang Cheng rolled down the car window and expertly handed the other person a pack of cigarettes.

"Hey, Zhang Jun, where are you going so late at night?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in front of him, Captain Lin couldn't help but smile, appearing exceptionally happy.
Because the area they were responsible for guarding happened to be Zhang Cheng's territory, they had a very happy time every day. After all, who wouldn't be happy to go to an izakaya to drink and sing after get off work?

"My goods were stolen tonight. I'm going to ask Colonel Nishino about it!"

Zhang Cheng then addressed Captain Lin, offering his explanation.
"What? Someone dares to steal your goods? Don't they know you're a friend of the Imperial Army?"

He spoke angrily, but Captain Lin quickly replied, "Leave this to us, I'll go report right now!"

"In that case, I'll have to trouble you, Kobayashi-kun!"

Looking at Xiaolin with a broad smile, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but smile back.

Because in Shanghai, there are only a few people who dare to rob his goods: Boss Huang, Mr. Lu, Long Qi, and Zhang Wanlin, whom no one dares to touch.
As for the Military Intelligence Bureau and his family, Zhang Cheng had absolutely no faith in them. This was Shanghai, and they wouldn't risk their hard work of undercover operations for such a small amount of equipment, or even offend a "heartless" tycoon!

Why did Zhang Cheng portray himself as such a bad person? It was to prove that he was a complete "opportunist"!
Who would believe that someone who would abandon morality, righteousness, propriety, wisdom, and trustworthiness for money is "one of us"?
The next morning, Kobayashi arrived at the nightclub with his men.

The people around were already quite familiar with the military police when they saw them appear.
After all, it's common knowledge that their boss has a very good relationship with the military police!
Approaching Zhang Cheng, Xiao Lin said seriously, "Mr. Zhang, we've investigated and found out that the person who stole your goods was Hong Sanyuan! He's already been imprisoned by the military police!"

Upon hearing Xiaolin's words, Zhang Cheng looked doubtful and asked, "Hong Sanyuan?"

"Yes!"

Xiao Lin nodded to Zhang Cheng and smiled.
Although they had no law enforcement power in the French and British concessions, the military police were virtually invincible in the International Settlement.

They discovered that Hong Sanyuan had robbed Zhang Cheng's goods in just one night.
"Thank you, Kobayashi-kun, this is a small gift!"

After having the second-in-command bring over the items, Zhang Cheng asked, "Can I bring Hong Sanyuan over here?"

"Of course, we're friends!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng with delight, Captain Lin gazed at the "gift" in his hand, appearing exceptionally happy.
After all, how much do they earn in a month? Zhang Cheng could easily give them a small amount that would be equivalent to two years' salary!

"Go and bring that big idiot Chun here!"

Speaking to the second-in-command, Zhang Cheng's face was full of speechlessness.
The whole of Shanghai knew about the feud between Hong Sanyuan and Zhang Wanlin.
But Zhang Cheng didn't think it through. Hong Sanyuan, you can fight Zhang Wanlin, why are you causing trouble for him?

It's like this: Passerby A and Passerby B are fighting on the street, and they end up killing Zhang Cheng, who is passing by.

An hour later, in front of the enormous statue of the God of War and Wealth,
Hong Sanyuan was kneeling on the ground, his face covered in blood and bearing numerous whip marks.

If it were just Zhang Wanlin, Hong Sanyuan might be able to maneuver with the help of other forces.
But when facing the military police, Hong Sanyuan was no match for them, because they didn't give him any face at all!
"So your name is Hong Sanyuan?"

Looking at the unruly young man before him, Zhang Cheng squatted down with great curiosity.
"Pah! If you have the guts, kill me!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng with disdain, Hong Sanyuan roared angrily.

"They've already spoken, what are you all standing there for? Drag him away and kill him!"

Looking at Hong Sanyuan, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but feel disgusted, because what kind of rubbish was this!

Based on the battle situation, Zhang Cheng didn't realize that Hong Sanyuan was one of his own; he probably just wanted to seize his weapons and fight Zhang Wanlin.
But he never imagined just how ruthless Zhang Wanlin was—the cripple Zhang, whom even Zhang Wanlin dared not touch! He figured that if he provoked Zhang Wanlin, the latter would at least be polite and follow the "rules."
But Zhang Cheng is different. Everything he does is for "tomorrow," and anyone who stands in his way will be crushed!

Because even he himself was willing to sacrifice himself, let alone a nobody like Hong Sanyuan!
Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Hong Sanyuan was also dumbfounded, because was he really that cruel?

Just as the second-in-command was pulling Hong Sanyuan outside, a noise came from outside.
Seeing Lin Yiyi and Shen Da rushing in with their group, Zhang Cheng's eyes widened as he exclaimed, "Holy crap?"

"Big brother!"

Clutching his chest in pain, the Axe Gang members lay on the ground, their faces contorted in struggle.
Stepping forward, Zhang Cheng gestured for them to stay put, then said coldly, "Are you all treating me like a nobody?"

"Mr. Zhang, we only came to rescue Hong Sanyuan. Please forgive us if we have offended anyone!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng before him, Shen Da couldn't help but cup his hands in greeting.
"Ah!"

Looking at Shen Da with a mixture of anger and amusement, Zhang Cheng squinted and stepped forward, saying, "You've already offended me, and you still expect me to forgive you?"

As he spoke, Zhang Cheng approached Shen Da and the others and said, "Driver, are you also planning to get involved in this?"

"Mr. Zhang, I'll listen to Sister Qiao!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, the driver said nothing, but his expression was very firm.

"Great, really great, you guys are all awesome!"

Zhang Cheng clapped his hands in exasperation, but he couldn't help but laugh!

Because people can actually laugh when they're speechless!

"You guys are really good at fighting, huh? Has anyone told you that I'm also really good at fighting?"

Zhang Cheng roared as he slammed a powerful backhand punch at Shen Da.
Seeing Zhang Cheng make his move, Shen Da immediately placed his hands in front of him.

"Oh!"

A dull thud rang out, and Shen Da was sent flying like a cannonball, crashing heavily onto the floor tiles.
Seeing this, the coachman immediately stepped in.

But before his fist could reach him, Zhang Cheng delivered a butterfly kick, sending him flying like a cannonball.

Seeing the two people being knocked away one after another, Xiao Aqiao's face showed a look of astonishment.
Because no one expected that Zhang Cheng, from the Axe Gang with the lowest "fighting power", would actually be such a good fighter?

"You stole my goods and then brought people to cause trouble on my turf? Do you really not consider me a human being?"

Looking coldly at Xiao Aqiao and the others, Zhang Cheng said with a vicious glint in his eyes, "Trash!"

Seeing Zhang Cheng's murderous gaze, Xiao Aqiao and Lin Yiyi were so frightened that they involuntarily backed away.

Seeing this, the Axe Gang members who had arrived were holding submachine guns, their faces fierce as they pulled back the bolts.
"Drag him out and kill him. Let these people know that I, Zhang Cheng, am not some good-for-nothing like Zhang Wanlin, who lets a little punk act arrogantly in front of me. Also, I don't care what you want to do, if you don't hand over my goods by tomorrow morning, I'll have you all drowned in the Huangpu River! Do you hear me?"

Addressing the crowd, Zhang Cheng turned around disdainfully and said, "Thirteen Protectors, huh? Damn, do you really think you're invincible?"

The second-in-command swung the axe in his hand and brought it down. Lin Yiyi turned pale with fright, but she was completely unable to move in Xiao Aqiao's hands.

Because she knew that Zhang Cheng was not Zhang Wanlin; he was far more ruthless and heartless than the other!
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Seeing Hong Sanyuan fall, Lin Yiyi began to cry.
The coachman and Shen Da, however, lay on the ground in agony, unable to get up.

Because everyone underestimated Zhang Cheng; he's the one who's truly capable!
