Chapter 18 – Who's afraid of playing tough

As soon as the call connected, a torrent of fierce curses came from the other end.

"Are you looking for death, you son of a bitch? Who gave you the right to talk about me in the group?"

"You dare to mess with me, Chen Zhenghao? Looks like you don't want to live."

"I have a hundred ways to make you unable to stay in this city, believe it or not?"

Chen Zhenghao was a well-known bully in Tianhai City, with hundreds of men under his command, and rumors had it that he had been involved in several murder cases.

Therefore, all the property owners in the same community avoided him, and no one dared to provoke him.

To establish his dominance, Chen Zhenghao's style was to make anyone who offended him pay a hefty price.

This was what they called the face of a society person.

So, even though Zhang Yi only mentioned him once in the property owners' chat group, Chen Zhenghao took it as a provocation.

On the phone, he cursed fiercely: "You really are seeking death! You talk big, huh? Using me to make your point."

Zhang Yi, of course, wouldn't put up with him and sneered back, "What kind of trash do you think you are?"

"Stop pretending here, you social scum, a useless waste, you bark when you're told to!"

After cursing out loud, Zhang Yi felt particularly exhilarated.

This was the murderer who had led the charge into his home in his previous life, causing his death, and he had been holding back his anger for a long time!

On the other end of the phone, Chen Zhenghao didn't expect Zhang Yi to talk back!

Furious beyond measure, his curses became even uglier.

Zhang Yi said bluntly: "You're just a useless piece of trash, only good at running your mouth, right? Who are you trying to scare? Go eat shit!"

After cursing, Zhang Yi hung up the phone and then blocked him.

After cursing and blocking, thinking of Chen Zhenghao's furious look on the other side, Zhang Yi felt particularly exhilarated.

He walked over to the TV and turned on the surveillance camera.

When War Dragon Security had built his safe house, they had installed cameras throughout the entire floor.

It could be said that the whole building was under his surveillance now.

Zhang Yi looked towards Chen Zhenghao's sixth floor, and sure enough, their door was violently pushed open soon after.

Chen Zhenghao, wearing a down jacket and carrying a baseball bat, stormed out with a menacing look.

But as soon as he stepped out, he shivered from the cold.

The temperature outside was a chilling minus seventy degrees, and he was only wearing a down jacket over a long-sleeved shirt, trying to show off his chest tattoo by leaving the zipper open.

The cold temperature immediately taught him a lesson.

Seeing no one around, Chen Zhenghao quickly rubbed his hands and hurried into the elevator.

Zhang Yi sat on the sofa, leisurely picking up a hand crossbow from under the coffee table.

This type of hand crossbow was used for hunting; even a 300-kilogram wild boar could be penetrated by the 20-centimeter bolt if hit.

Humming a tune, he began to load the crossbow bolts.

After practicing for some time, he had become very proficient with the hand crossbow.

Within 15 meters, he might not hit the target every time, but he wouldn't miss a target as big as a watermelon.

The elevator continued to ascend, and Zhang Yi, with the loaded hand crossbow, went to the door.

His massive security door had a shooting hole at two meters high.

Zhang Yi stepped on a chair and opened the cover of the shooting hole, which could only be opened from the inside.

Then he aimed the hand crossbow at the corridor outside.

For safety, Zhang Yi also had a pistol in his pocket.

Even if Chen Zhenghao was made of iron, he was going to be unlucky today.

Soon, the sound of the elevator rang out, and Chen Zhenghao came out cursing and swearing.

Through the property owners' chat group, he easily found Zhang Yi's residence.

Arriving at the door, he picked up the baseball bat and started smashing and cursing.

"Zhang Yi, you bastard, come out!"

"Damn it, weren't you acting tough just now? Come out now and see how I'll kill you!"

Chen Zhenghao cursed viciously and smashed the door with all his might.

But the security door was twenty centimeters thick with bulletproof metal, more defensive than some armored vehicles.

Naturally, Chen Zhenghao couldn't break it with a baseball bat; instead, it made his hands ache.

Cursing and swearing, Chen Zhenghao failed to notice that he was already targeted by a crossbow bolt.

Zhang Yi watched Chen Zhenghao's ferocious demeanor and a playful smile appeared on his lips.

His crossbow bolt was aimed at Chen Zhenghao's head.

But after thinking for a moment, he changed his target.

In this apocalyptic world, everyone else in the building except him was bound to die, and Chen Zhenghao was no exception.

Killing him now would be too boring!

After all, in his previous life, he was torn apart and eaten alive by these ruthless neighbors.

A wicked smile appeared on Zhang Yi's lips.

He wasn't going to let this scum die so easily!

So, Zhang Yi changed his target.

With a faint whistling sound, the sharp crossbow bolt shot directly into Chen Zhenghao's leg.

The bolt, capable of killing a wild boar, completely pierced through his calf!

Chen Zhenghao let out a piercing scream and fell to the ground, clutching his leg and howling in pain.

In the sub-seventy-degree cold, with a penetrating wound, Chen Zhenghao's leg was definitely ruined.

And due to the lack of medicine, infection was inevitable.

Next, he would die miserably in pain and cold.

At this moment, Chen Zhenghao was in agony and realized he had encountered a terrifyingly ruthless person!

These thugs relied on their fearlessness and shamelessness, betting that honest people wouldn't dare to resist them.

But when faced with someone ruthless enough to use a crossbow, even they would be afraid.

Chen Zhenghao was so scared he wet himself, not even seeing where the arrow had come from.

But he was still a tough guy from the underworld, dragging his injured leg back to the elevator.

Zhang Yi chose not to continue attacking, for a simple reason: he wanted Chen Zhenghao to live a little longer.

A quick look at "pawread.com" will leave you more fulfilled.

After all, he wasn't a demon!

After Chen Zhenghao returned to the elevator, he was drenched in cold sweat, which quickly froze in the sub-seventy-degree temperature.

But at this moment, his heart was colder than the air.

The merciless attack he had just experienced made him feel naked killing intent.

In today's society, anyone who dared to shoot people with a hand crossbow was not to be trifled with!

Chen Zhenghao looked at his injured leg, his entire calf completely pierced by the crossbow bolt!

Blood stained half of his trouser leg, then froze into ice.

In the extreme cold, his pain was not as intense.

But this did not bring any relief to Chen Zhenghao; instead, it terrified him even more.

He knew that under these circumstances, if his leg wasn't treated, it would be useless in less than half an hour!
