Whoosh!
Another mound of earth.
CC closed in again.
“...”
“...”
The road ahead remained bumpy; CC sometimes steadied herself on Lin Xian’s shoulders, at other times hugged him to stabilize her body.
...
After a rough journey, they finally arrived at the “starting point.”
Lin Xian hid the motorcycle and then pulled CC to hide in an alley.
He glanced at his watch.
A little past five-thirty.
In less than ten minutes, the three-knife thief would appear.
“What are we waiting for here?” CC asked curiously.
“Waiting for a three-knife thief.”
“What the heck?” CC was utterly perplexed.
Suddenly.
From afar came Auntie Li’s breathless chasing cries:
“Catch—catch the thief! Catch... catch the... the thief!”
Whoosh!
The thief with the black hat passed by the entrance of the alley like the wind.
Lin Xian ran out, directly encountering the anxious Auntie Li.
Auntie Li, as if seeing a savior, grabbed Lin Xian’s arm:
“Young man...”
“All right, okay, wait.”
Having said that, he took a quick step forward, chasing after the thief.
“Hey!”
CC didn’t know what else to do and followed Lin Xian at a brisk pace, watching him dart left and right.
“Take this—” “Ah!”
Lin Xian, like a factory worker on an assembly line, swiftly removed the three knives from the thief’s person, then yanked his belt, securing his hands behind his back on the ground.
CC was truly ASTONISHED by this smooth sequence of moves, blinked her eyes, and looked up at Lin Xian:
She smiled, her eyes curving into two beautiful crescents, with dimples playing at the corners of her mouth. Her pretty face was like a blooming white pear blossom, and she raised her right hand, with fingers as delicate as white jade, to wave at everyone:
“Hello.”
Er Zhuzi stood up straight!
Like a steam train’s smokestack, he blew out two streams of hot air from his nostrils and eagerly stepped forward to grasp Lin Xian’s hand in excitement:
“Is this the little sister!!”
“No, it’s not.”
Er Zhuzi clicked his tongue and looked at CC with a lack of interest:
“The Lian Gang isn’t Rouge Village or Silk Cave; since when do we recruit women into the gang? Won’t we be laughed at if word gets out? Won’t the other gangs look down on us?”
“Brother Lian! I don’t agree with this woman joining the gang!”
Big Face Cat also nodded in agreement.
Indeed...
The gang had never recruited women before, and he hadn’t expected the new little brother’s accomplice to be a woman.
“What’s wrong with a woman!!”
Ah Zhuang’s tone elevated as he stepped forward, puffing out his chest:
“Since ancient times, it’s adapt or perish! There’s no such thing as an immutable truth in this vast world! I agree! Let this female hero join the gang!”
“What the hell?”
Big Face Cat was taken aback and rapped Ah Zhuang on the head:
“Where did you learn these words? That’s not like your style at all. You’re almost ready to break into song!”
San Pang looked at CC, her intoxicating smile blooming like pear flowers, and he nodded wisely:
“I think it’s okay.”
Big Face Cat then turned and rapped on San Pang’s head, knocking twice, which echoed hollowly:
“Are you okay again? Have you learned to jump in with answers now?”
Anyway...
Two votes in favor, one against.
“Alright then.”
Big Face Cat nodded reluctantly:
“We are quite democratic after all, so... welcome to the Lian Gang! What do we call you, beautiful?”
“CC.” CC had already been unable to hold back her laughter and looked at Lin Xian whilst laughing:
“Your friends are really interesting. But tell me... why not call it the Cat Gang? Why must it be the Lian Gang?”
“That’s a very complicated philosophical question.” Lin Xian whispered, but still joined Big Face Cat, Ah Zhuang, and San Pang in a round of enthusiastic applause:
