New Century Kitchen Warrior

Chapter 162 Catching the Thief
Lei Ye occupied the high ground.

It is said to be a high place, but in fact it is the top of the only two-story building nearby. There is a good enough view here. He watched Ah Cai slow down his pace, walk to the door of a small house, and kick the door open.

A few seconds later, a little man shot out from the chimney like a rocket. He was indeed a top-notch little thief. He ran wildly on the roof. Even a street of nearly ten meters in between could not stop him. Perhaps he had some skill that made him as light as a flea.

As a fighter, Acai is quite good, but he has no way to deal with this kind of guy who doesn't fight and only runs away. He ran out of the door and could only kick the poor door again in helplessness and anger. But Lei Ye is different. He is a pentagonal warrior with superb stats and plug-ins.

Roasted rabbit leg with agility buff enabled.

He ran and chased after him, jumping up and down on the roof. His speed was slower than that of the thief. Although he could barely keep up with his back, it was still foreseeable that he would lose the target. Lei Ye hesitated for a moment, then immediately took out his secret weapon.

Magic Gatling Cup.

Start spinning! Densely packed stone bullets were spit out from the telescopic cavity wall. Lei Ye knew that its delicate inner wall was being scratched crazily, but Lei Ye didn't feel bad about it, because he could still sell it after washing it, and if he couldn't sell it, he would use it himself.

It’s more enjoyable with patterns.

The stone bullet hit the thief's back. Lei Ye heard him groan and stagger a few steps, but he did not stop but instead walked even faster. The subsequent bullets whizzed past him from behind like the trajectory of urine.

It’s very durable, Lei Ye sighed as he changed the magazine and installed the small bottle of itching powder.

There are limited numbers of these things, so he can't just shoot them indiscriminately. He slowed down a little, made his aim more precise, and fired while holding his breath!

It hit the back of the thief's neck perfectly, like a flying needle from a bow piercing Kogoro Mori.

Lei Ye was secretly happy, as he used this actual combat to verify the performance of the new series of weapons.

Ever since he experienced the pain of overdrawing his magic power, Lei Ye understood why magicians always attach so much importance to controlling their magic power consumption. In order to save a little magic power, some magicians even wear small bows to cooperate with their teammates' output, because magic power is the magician's lifeblood.

That's why he recently worked hard to develop such a powerful long-range weapon and switched to ADC.

However, the most powerful weapon in the new series is still the Strong Shock Sword. When fully fired, the blade can cut through steel plates like a hot knife through butter. It's a pity that the battery life is limited and can only last for a maximum of three minutes.

Because the holy sword only has special bonuses when the sword spirit exists, but in this case the sword spirit will also be shocked. She can only last three minutes and is a pure trash.

Lei Ye heard a strange laugh. It was the thief falling from the roof. He took advantage of this opportunity to put away the things in his hands and accelerated explosively, leaping down from the eaves, and pressing his knee against the back of the thief's neck who was about to crawl up from the ground.

"Ugh. Hahaha, born, haha."

Lei Ye subdued him with a series of smooth movements. Just when he was feeling proud of himself, he heard the person under his knees cursing and laughing, and he couldn't help but get angry.

"Be serious, you've been arrested. What should you say at this time? You have the right to remain silent, but every word you say will be used as evidence in court!" Lei Ye punched him in the waist, making him vomit bitter water.

The thief turned his head with a ferocious look on his face. He was a skinny young man. He spat at Lei Ye.

"You bastard, hahaha, it's useless even if you catch me. I have no money left, not even a penny. Damn it, if you have the ability, just kill me."

Lei Ye dodged the saliva and was shocked.

This isn't right. Why are the thief's lines so weird?

"What money? Did you mean the stolen money has been spent or something?"

This question stumped the little thief.

He looked at Lei Ye's face behind the hood and met his gentle yet obscene gaze.

"You are from the big casino, right?"

"I'm new here." Lei Ye answered frankly. Now the big casino belongs to a friendly competitor, and they will work together in the future, so he must be considered a member of the big casino.

"What a bastard, hahaha." The little thief spat again.

Although he was scolded again, Lei Ye was not sure about the man in front of him. Those clear and angry eyes did not look like those of a thief. After thinking about it, Lei Ye's heart skipped a beat.

"You are not in debt to a loan shark."

"Loan shark? Haha, what loan shark?"

Since he couldn't resist anymore, the little thief just rubbed his body against hers and laughed, while answering any questions immediately.

"Let me ask this in a more direct way. Do you know why you are being pursued?"

"What kind of question is this? Are you playing with other people's evil tastes again? Haha, don't you know what's going on? Oh, you mean I have been squeezed dry and there is no value left, right? I guess you are here to capture me and make me a slave?" The little thief desperately moved a hand that could move, and patted Lei Ye's calf with his hand behind his back, "You are really awesome! You are really amazing! You will never give up until you have completely eaten me dry, haha!"

He gasped heavily and slowly got up. Only then did he realize that he was able to pull his hand free because the person who was pressing him down relaxed his knees.

really weird.
People in big casinos are never so gentle. If they wanted to silence him, he would have been rolling on the ground in flames. If they wanted to recruit him, he would have been beaten to the point of being unable to move. But now he was subdued once but stood up again intact. He subconsciously wanted to run away, but he couldn't help but glance at the man who subdued him this time. Maybe he was really a newcomer in the big casino, a master invited from somewhere, who was able to catch him in just a few moves, and at the same time he was not bad enough to be too cruel.

And this man, with a thoughtful look on his face, suddenly took out a veil and put it on his head.

The little thief watched him change into his own appearance, he was dumbfounded.

"I just said that I always felt something was wrong."

The man who looked exactly like him waved his hands at this side, and as he spoke he took out a mask and put it on his face. The strange thing was that after putting it on his face it seemed to disappear all of a sudden. When he spoke again, the thief heard a voice that was exactly the same as his own.

"There's nothing for you to do here. Go away and I'll see what's going on."

Are you really going to let him go?

The thief felt that these were really ups and downs in the last few minutes. First, the door of his hiding place was kicked open by the elite of the big casino. He reacted very quickly and ran away. He thought it would be another exciting chase, but this time a master came. Not only was his speed almost the same, but he also had evil small weapons. He couldn't defeat him no matter how hard he tried. However, just when he gave up in despair, there was a sudden turn of events, and the other party let him go for unknown reasons.

If he hadn't met him before, he would never have believed that the people in the big casino would let him go. For some reason, he ran away but didn't run far. He squatted on the roof in the distance and watched silently, because he was really curious about what this new guy in the big casino was up to.

Lei Ye sat there, thinking silently for a while, then he slowly lay down on the ground.

Then he controlled his body to twitch slightly, like a patient suffering from epilepsy.

At this time, Acai finally crossed the streets and rushed to the scene. He saw Lei Ye on the ground at a glance, and his eyes suddenly lit up. This little thief was an A-level thief in the guild before. He didn't have any special abilities, but he could run very fast. The Cai Guangjin trio had never been able to deal with him. Although my damn brother-in-law is evil, he is really capable. How could he be caught so quickly?

By the way, where is my son-in-law?
Ah Cai is usually a cold person, but at this moment he couldn't help but sincerely want to flatter his son-in-law. Unfortunately, his son-in-law had disappeared from his sight. He felt like he was trying to hide his reputation after doing something wrong.

"What? Why are you chasing me?" The little thief lying on the ground covered his chest and moved backwards. For some reason, Ah Cai thought his movements were a bit exaggerated.

An idea suddenly occurred to him. His brother-in-law was not nearby, otherwise he could take this opportunity to explain the business of the big casino.

As for this little thief.
"You still owe the big casino fifty big gold coins." He approached slowly and said in a cold voice.

"Fuck, so many," Lei Ye almost sat up when he heard the number, "What did I do to owe so much? You guys can't be more evil than Three Kingdoms Kill!"

Ah Cai was also stunned. The thief's speech today was very off the mark. Perhaps it was because he was finally caught? He walked closer and looked down at him coldly.

"To be honest, you should be thanking us. Although we did use some dirty tricks, your girlfriend didn't put up any resistance and seemed to be very adaptable to working in a big casino. In my opinion, she is not worth you risking your life and all your wealth to redeem her money."

Lei Ye frowned slightly.

"But since you are here, you should accept the loss. You should know what the outcome will be. If it was before, you would have two choices: join the big casino or die. You are an A-level explorer, so you will have good treatment. If your performance meets the requirements, you can even wash off the slave tattoos on your body. But you are unlucky. Now, there are no more options for you."

Acai slowly took out his weapon, a pirate scimitar.

He exhaled slowly, as if he wanted to spit out the humiliation he had suffered in the restaurant earlier. Facing his brother-in-law, he did not dare to use his full strength and could not draw his weapon, but as long as the knife drew blood, he would be able to vent some of the anger in his heart. Ah Cai thought that his past self would never have thought that he would now use killing as a way to relieve stress.

He suddenly accelerated and sprinted, swinging his sword like a moon.

At this time, the little thief dodged the slash with a weird roll, got up, kicked, and hit Ah Cai in the crotch.

In an instant, Ah Cai's face became ferocious. He had never seen such a sinister move in previous battles, and today he was hit twice in a row.

The next second, fists rushed straight to his face like a storm. That was not the strength that the little thief should have. It was like a battering ram hitting his face! Ah Cai was stunned. After just a few days of not seeing each other, where did the little thief get so much strength?
He fainted from the severe pain.
When he woke up again, a man was carrying him on his back.

"Son-in-law." He groaned because his words were not clear.

"Don't say anything. The other party hit you hard. You lost a front tooth and your mouth is full of blood."

"Son-in-law." Acai said gratefully after realizing that it was the other party who made the settlement.

Sure enough, blood flowed out of his mouth and fell on Lei Ye's shoulder. Lei Ye cried out in disgust and thought to himself, I'm not comforting you, I'm just afraid that you will dirty my clothes, look, look.

"That little thief was very strange. He suddenly became very powerful." Acai said intermittently.

It sounds like he is trying to pass the buck, which is a bit embarrassing. He said in the restaurant that he was the S-level bodyguard assigned to his brother-in-law, but he ended up being beaten up on his first mission and even had to be carried back by his brother-in-law.

It's really ridiculous, brother-in-law, you should have tied up the man when you caught him, or at least knocked him out. Why did you just leave him there after knocking him down?
"Where were you just now, uncle?" Although asking this question might seem like questioning his teammates, Ah Cai couldn't help but ask with a grin.

"The thief has teammates, so I was in a hurry to chase him. Then I heard some movement from your side and rushed back," Lei Ye said calmly, hissing a little artificially, "It was a really fierce battle. I could hardly break through his torrential attack. The most important thing was that he seemed to have a grudge against you and kept trying to finish you off. I risked my life to protect you."

Ah Cai was stunned. Yes, if it were those people who hated him so much, it would be impossible for him not to finish him off. Once he lost consciousness in the battle, he would definitely die miserably.

But now he had only lost two teeth, so it seemed that it could only be his brother-in-law who saved him.

He was flattered that a big shot like his son-in-law would help a small character like him.

He was moved and horrified at the same time, "Son-in-law, are you hurt?!"

"It's okay, they're just minor injuries, I can handle it myself," Lei Ye said, while continuing to gasp for air so Ah Cai could hear, "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone about this after I go back, and I'll just brush it off if anyone asks."

Acai was stunned again, and then his body began to tremble slightly.

My God, what a great leader this is. In order to prevent his bodyguard from being blamed for dereliction of duty, he even took the initiative to say that he would keep the matter secret.

Before that, he saved his life.

After that, he still carried me back.

"I think I can go now, thank you, uncle." Thinking of this, he hurriedly got off Lei Ye.

Then seeing the dirty marks on the brother-in-law's clothes (from rolling on the ground) and the glaring bloodstains (the blood flowing from Acai's wound), it was hard to imagine what kind of battle he had gone through to save his life from an opponent who could knock out an S-level explorer in one encounter.

What a good son-in-law.

Although he is a bit evil, he treats his subordinates very well. He is not like the little emperor who sees everyone except himself as his livestock.

Acai was suddenly not so afraid of Lei Ye anymore.

From now on, the big casino will belong to Lei Ye. He said that he would keep himself to work there later. Although that kind of business makes Acai a little scared, he is used to doing things that go against his conscience. He knows that the greater the risk, the greater the reward. Following this son-in-law who is outstanding in ability and cares for his subordinates may not be a bad choice.

Behind Lei Ye where he couldn't see, Acai silently lowered his head to Lei Ye.

Favor.

loyalty!
