What To Do If The Heroine Escapes From The Book

Chapter 111: Clash

The lights quickly turned on inside the villa, and the people in the underground secret chamber began coughing frantically, rushing to get out. Meanwhile, the members of the Black Room had already retreated outside the villa when they threw the stink bomb.

Footsteps echoed from all sides as the Wang family members who had been hiding outside swiftly surrounded them.

Wang Xiangdong, the head of the Wang family, stood among the crowd with a gloomy expression and sneered, “Zhong Yi, you know very well that Rong Fu is not my man, yet you use the excuse of your injured comrades to collaborate with the true culprits who harmed them, all for the sake of seizing what belongs to my family… In front of them, I will expose you as a hypocrite.”

However, the members of the Black Room remained silent.

Zhong Yi smiled faintly, “Unfortunately, I have already told them everything before this. Your provocations won’t work.”

Wang Xiangdong raised an eyebrow, “So these people willingly serve you like dogs?”

Zhong Yi sighed, “Why can’t you all understand… what we truly dislike is what you have done. How much innocent blood is tainted by the prohibited drugs hidden in your secret chamber, or the wealth stored in your safes? We took Zhang Qiren’s job to expose you for this very reason, and now that we are here, it remains the same.”

“So what? I’ve been prepared for this, and you won’t get anything.” Wang Xiangdong’s expression gradually turned sinister, “I will also let you know that being a hero is not so easy.”

As he spoke, a large group of security guards rushed forward, while the mere four or five members of the Black Room stood there like small boats swaying in a raging sea.

However, Zhong Yi just smiled, “Your ability users were primarily focused on defending against Zhang Qiren. With this group of ordinary security guards… do you really think we, the Black Room, are just here to entertain?”

Wan Zijun silently wrote the word “Dad” on his face and stood in front of everyone.

The opposing group quickly revealed a forced smile and shrunk back, “Uh, Dad… why are you here…”

Wang Xiangdong spoke expressionlessly, “First of all, I am also an ability user, and it seems like I’m even more powerful than you. This doesn’t affect me.”

Zhong Yi chuckled, “Naturally.”

“Secondly…” Wang Xiangdong waved his hand, and several burly men stood beside him, “These are the ones who dislike their dads the most.”

Wan Zijun: “?”

The burly men grinned and pounced forward. Wan Zijun turned around and ran, exclaiming, “Holy shit…”

The boss lady once again threw a flash candy, and everyone shouted as they scattered and ran in all directions, causing chaos.

In the midst of the chaos, Zhang Qiren walked into the backyard storage room.

There was a faint sense of energy circulation in the storage room, similar to the activated energy in the secret chamber. It was easy to deduce that there was either a replica of a treasure or a decoy placed here to divert attention.

Otherwise, who would place a valuable item in the backyard storage room? The members of the Black Room didn’t even spare a glance in this direction.

However, Zhang Qiren still walked towards the decoy. His subordinate with the ability to unlock quickly opened the door to the storage room, and he stepped inside.

A flash of a blade appeared by his side, directly slashing down.

Zhang Qiren’s expression remained unchanged as he used his flesh and blood arm to block the attack. The opponent, on the other hand, was so scared that they quickly retracted the blade, accidentally hitting their own forehead with the back of the knife. “Zhang… Zhang Qiren…”

Zhang Qiren smiled, “I see you know my abilities so well. Impressive.”

His gaze fell on a shabby wooden cabinet in the corner of the storage room, where several people were standing. Although it seemed like two groups of people, they were separated by some distance.

He stared at the wooden cabinet for a while, then laughed, “These tricks of illusions and reality are actually quite boring. To determine what’s real and what’s fake, we just need to see where you’re guarding the most tightly…”

A solemn expression appeared on the face of a bearded man in his thirties, “Zhang Qiren, do you really think you stand a chance alone? We’ve been waiting for you to come and deliver yourself to us!”

Suddenly, a tall and thin man appeared behind him, standing alone and blocking Zhang Qiren’s group.

Zhang Qiren felt a slight chill in his heart.

Just this one thin and tall man brought him immense pressure, his ability training felt substantial, and Zhang Qiren had no idea what terrifying ability he possessed…

Remaining calm, Zhang Qiren didn’t even bother to look at the thin and tall man. He simply smiled and said, “Wang Zhenqian… you’ve got one thing wrong. I am not Zhang Qiren anymore. I am a civic-minded citizen who helps the police solve cases. I’m not here to steal anything, I’m here to stir up trouble for you, that’s all.”

As he spoke, he casually lit a lighter and threw it into the cluttered items.

The small storage room burst into flames, and everyone’s expressions changed drastically, “Zhang Qiren, you fucking…”

Zhang Qiren quickly stepped back to the side while keeping his peripheral vision on the thin and tall man.

He saw the ice-cold gaze of the thin and tall man also growing tense, firmly fixed on the dilapidated wooden cabinet that was on fire.

A hint of a smile appeared at the corner of Zhang Qiren’s mouth.

Guarding against wolves is never a good thing… I hope your Wang family can handle it.

The bearded man, Wang Zhenqian, was frantically trying to save the wooden cabinet, shouting, “What are you all standing there for? Kill Zhang Qiren first… Fuck!”

Before he could finish his sentence, the thin and tall man had already rushed in and struck him hard in the back with a palm strike. Unbeknownst to Wang Zhenqian, the ring on the thin and tall man’s finger had transformed into sharp spikes, viciously piercing his back. Caught off guard, Wang Zhenqian was thrown onto the wooden cabinet in front of him, shattering it into pieces.

At the same time, the two groups guarding on the left and right of the wooden cabinet began to clash with each other.

Amidst the shattered cabinet, a small metal box flew out, piercing through Wang Zhenqian’s body and landing in the hands of the thin and tall man.

The tall man glanced at the intensifying fire in the storage room. Without even saying goodbye to his subordinates, he swiftly turned around, leaped over the backyard iron fence, and disappeared into the darkness. It was as if the iron fence didn’t exist at all.

The confirmation of his metal-based ability was basically solid.

However, he didn’t get far before he saw Zhang Qiren and his group blocking his path with a smiling expression, “Sir, seems like you’ve forgotten that we’ve been waiting for you for quite some time?”

The thin and tall man took a deep breath, “Zhang Qiren, you’ve achieved your goal of bringing down the Wang family. Don’t be greedy and stir up unnecessary trouble.”

Zhang Qiren smiled faintly, “In the competition for treasures, the capable prevail. How can that be considered greedy?”

The thin and tall man was infuriated. The fire had caused everything to go haywire. If Hai Dongqing were here, it would be much easier. Where did that bastard go?

Hai Dongqing was hiding behind a nearby tree with Chu Ge. He was introducing Chu Ge, “My eldest brother, a metal manipulation esper. We only know him by his alias, Iron Anvil, and we don’t even know his real name.”

Chu Ge asked in a low voice, “If his metal ability is developed enough, can he control the metallic elements in his opponent’s body as well? That sounds formidable.”

Hai Dongqing replied, “In theory, I could also manipulate the water elements within your bodies, but it’s not that easy.”

Chu Ge nodded, contemplating how to catch the opponent off guard.

However, Iron Anvil tucked the box into his embrace and sneered, “Since you also want to seize the treasure, let’s settle it right here.”

Zhang Qiren clapped his hands.

His subordinates beside him all pulled out their guns, pointing them at Iron Anvil.

Iron Anvil: “???”

“I just don’t understand, do you feel like we’ve gone back to the martial arts era after acquiring esper abilities… Even Deer and the Cauldron had musketeers,” Zhang Qiren was puzzled, “Or do you think your metal ability is truly more badass than guns?”

Iron Anvil took a deep breath and shook his head slightly, “Zhang Qiren, you’re indeed impressive. We should have cooperated, shouldn’t we?”

Zhang Qiren didn’t answer.

Iron Anvil chuckled, “But you were right about one thing… I don’t know if others’ abilities are more badass than guns, but at least I’m not afraid of them.”

As he spoke, Zhang Qiren clearly saw the barrels of the guns next to him distorting, turning into scrap metal. Some even had their gun handles transformed into iron spikes, impaling them and causing blood to flow.

Iron Anvil threw a punch towards Zhang Qiren’s face, and the ring on his finger turned into spikes, gleaming in the moonlight.

Zhang Qiren instinctively used his palm to block his face, feeling a piercing pain in his hand. At the same time, Iron Anvil also grunted in pain as they both recoiled, clutching their respective hands.

“What the hell…” Iron Anvil was both angry and stunned. Zhang Qiren’s ability was truly disgusting. Who would want to fight him?

He didn’t feel like wasting any more words and took the opportunity while others were at a loss, fleeing from the scene.

But suddenly, he found his body becoming heavy, making it difficult to move even half a step.

It was because the red-haired youth, “Azhong,” by Zhang Qiren’s side had made a move—gravity control!

Others also discarded their useless guns and directly grabbed broken tree branches, stabbing them towards Iron Anvil.

Iron Anvil became furious amidst the chaos. With a roar, Azhong’s belt buckle turned into spikes and stabbed into his stomach, causing Azhong to stagger and retreat.

In the midst of the chaos, Chu Ge had quietly approached Iron Anvil from behind, launching a sudden heavy punch.

A burst of golden light flashed, solidly hitting Iron Anvil’s back.

Iron Anvil spewed out a mouthful of blood and stumbled forward, causing the metal small box he held in his arms to fall out directly.

Zhang Qiren swiftly snatched the small box and ran.

Iron Anvil didn’t even care about injuring Chu Ge and roared, “Stay!” He lunged towards Zhang Qiren without hesitation.

Zhang Qiren fled frantically, also wondering in his heart. His father was determined to obtain that item and had arranged for someone to provide support, so why hadn’t they come?

Just then, the darkness ahead started distorting.

Zhang Qiren stopped his footsteps, his expression dazed.

A shadow leaped from the front like a venomous snake, swiftly entwining around the small box in Zhang Qiren’s hand. However, Zhang Qiren didn’t even have the desire to struggle for it and silently let the shadow take the small box away.

The shadow seemed to “look” at him for a moment but didn’t stop, instantly transforming into razor-sharp blades, slashing at Iron Anvil’s abdomen as he chased from behind.

Iron Anvil instinctively protected himself, and the sound of clashing metal rang out. He let out a scream, and blood splattered.

The power of the shadow blades was even sharper than metal.

A slender yet upright figure gradually emerged from the shadows ahead, appearing mysterious and dreamlike under the moonlight.

Chu Ge stood behind, observing Zhang Qiren’s dull and spiritless appearance, feeling a sense of inexplicable strangeness.

He never expected that the official participants contacted by Zhong Yi would include Lin Wuyang and Moon Shadow, in addition to himself.

It seemed like this organization, led by Iron Anvil, had a grudge against their group… From the Wallwalker to Hai Dongqing, and now their leader Iron Anvil, who was the most typical case—he was the only one who had been beaten up by their trio of neighbors.

Moon Shadow walked slowly, passing by Zhang Qiren’s side without even glancing at him, brushing past him directly. She used her shadow as a ribbon to tightly bind Iron Anvil and then surprisingly spoke to Chu Ge, “Iron Anvil is an important suspect for us. I’ve been ordered to take him back. As for this box…”

She seemed hesitant and somewhat puzzled, but ultimately she handed it to Chu Ge, saying, “It says here to hand it over to you when I see you. Perfect timing.”

Chu Ge: “???”

Moon Shadow added, “You have one month to study it. After one month, it belongs to the public.”
