Chapter 0002: A Brawl

  As I watched the crowd surging in like a tide, I thought of the scene in Young and Dangerous where Chicken and Big Head were surrounded by a group of teenagers holding Coca-Cola bottles on the soccer field. For a moment, my heroic spirit was stirred up - women are nothing without her, but with these brothers, I'm still unstoppable.

  I'm a person who never causes trouble or fights, but I have very good relationships with others. My dormitory brothers and I are particularly close, they spend money lavishly, by the 20th of each month, there's basically nothing left in their pockets. So when it comes to cigarettes and daily necessities, they all rely on me. Since I'm more frugal with my spending, after the 20th, I become their "second parents"...

  "Xiao Fei, what's wrong, who wants to hit you?" A handsome young man with a clean face and a baseball bat in his hand appeared beside me, casting a sideways glance at Huang Mao.

  His name is Yang Lei, he has no father or mother, and was raised by his older brother. Although he looks handsome and elegant, when he fights, he's like a madman, with extremely ruthless moves.

  "What the heck! You're a stinky, broken, rotten egg, coming to our school to pretend to be your mom!" A tall and sturdy young man, 1.89 meters in height, pointed at Huang Mao with a stick and scolded loudly.

  He is Meng Chen, with the same surname as me. His family was relatively wealthy, and his parents were both businesspeople, so from a young age he developed a fearless personality, like a raging fire. Apart from a few close brothers, he basically wouldn't give anyone face.

  "Haha, damn it, you bunch of little bastards, still want to cause trouble? Come on, come and see who dares to touch me!" Huang Mao was quite bold, facing forty or fifty people without showing any fear, sticking his head out and shouting loudly.

  "I'm going to beat you, Keke, Chenchen, hit him!" As soon as I saw this bastard, my temper flared up and I took a step forward, punching his head with one fist.

  This punch was extremely forceful, each of my fingers felt numb and painful, the yellow-haired one stumbled back, my damn ex-girlfriend, retreated several steps in shock, looking at me as if I were a stranger, probably because my usual style is somewhat low-key, that's why she reacted so differently.

  "Son of a bitch, you dare hit me!" Huang Mao covered his head and said in disbelief.

  "You think you're Ultraman or something? You're just a punching bag!" Chenchen kicked him in the stomach with a powerful kick, sending Huang Mao curling up on the ground like a shrimp.

  "Beat him up for me!" Kuai shouted to the classmates behind him, and he took the lead, wielding a baseball bat like a yellow-haired wheel.

  Forty or fifty people rushed up and gave him a good kicking, but since they were all students, they didn't use the same vicious tactics as thugs in society. They basically had some restraint and didn't hit too hard. Huang Mao clearly wasn't new to getting beaten up, he was very experienced, covering his head with both hands and lying on the ground, cursing loudly.

  Just as everyone was kicking with all their might, more than a dozen young men in their twenties rushed in, carrying machetes and clubs, and the leader shouted: "Who dares to hit my brother!"

  He finished speaking and raised his cleaver, without any hesitation chopping towards Lui's head. Lui was still kicking with excitement, plus the noise beside him was too loud, he didn't notice at all.

  This steel chopper, if it chops on top of the head, basically for the rest of his life, he will have to spend it in a wheelchair. I gritted my teeth and somehow found the courage to quickly stand behind him and block the chopper with my arm.

  The knife cut into my body, making almost no sound. I didn't even feel any pain, just a chill on my arm, and then blood flowed out of the down jacket, dripping onto the pristine white snow.

  The students around them noticed the scene and retreated a few steps, their eyes filled with panic. After all, they were all students, fighting with sticks was still acceptable, but once they saw a knife, they would naturally feel intimidated.

  Huang Mao struggled to his feet, brushed off the snow on his body, wiped the blood from his nose, and pointed at me with his finger, saying slowly: "Grass mud horse, come out!"

  "Damn you, get out! I'll see what you can do to us!" Weiwei said, looking at the knife wound on my body with red eyes.

  "You're a man, come out, what's the point of hiding in school?" Huang Mao didn't pay attention to Lai Lai and continued to talk to me.

  I know what he's afraid of, fighting in school, if things don't go well, the school will get involved and it'll be a big deal, even if it's not serious, they might still give him a sentence for causing harm. If it happens outside of school and the police catch him, at most he'll be charged with disturbing the peace and have to spend 10 days or half a month in jail.

  "Alright! I'll go with you!" Today, I don't know what's wrong with me either. There's a surge of anger in my mind, as if I've been possessed by an evil spirit. Originally, if I didn't go out, he wouldn't have any way to deal with me, but somehow I agreed, and this might be the path that I'm destined to take for the rest of my life.

  "Xiao Fei, I'm going with you!"

  "I'm going too!"

  Keke and Chenchen followed closely behind me without any hesitation, while the other classmates stood awkwardly in place, not making a sound.

  At this moment, another twenty or thirty students wearing school uniforms and holding sticks came running over. I glanced sideways with a helpless smile, and the two leaders were also good brothers in my dormitory, Wang Mu and Zhang Wei.

  "Hey, why didn't you call us when you were fighting?" Zhang Weichang was relatively more refined, of medium build, not handsome but not ugly either.

  "What are you doing here? Go back quickly!" I didn't want them to get involved and spoke out.

  "What's the big deal? I've been stuck in this dorm for years, let him chop me twice, what can he do to me? I don't believe he can kill me!" Wang Mu said with a nonchalant attitude, looking at me.

  "Stop messing around! Come out if you dare!" Huang Mao said impatiently.

  "You'd better remember, if you can't kill me today, I'll definitely dare to kill you!" Weiwei's eyes blazed with anger as he loudly cursed.

  In the Northeast, if someone wants to make a name for himself in society, people like Keke are indispensable. Without parents, alone and unafraid of heaven or earth, with a fierce determination that dares to kill, such people are the most terrifying, and ordinary people do not want to provoke them.

  Huang Mao was a bit arrogant, waving his hand at us and indicating for us to follow him. I didn't hesitate at all, and followed him with big strides.

  Behind me are Qiangqiang, Chenchen, Zhang Wei and Wang Mummy. This matter has affected our whole life and also determined the bumpy road we will take in the future.

  Some people say what you wrote is too unrealistic. So many people are fighting and the school doesn't have a single person to stop them, it's unbelievable.

  So I'm telling you, in the Northeast, this kind of thing is too common. I've seen it with my own eyes - a guy who graduated from our school and was doing pretty well for himself in society, because his younger brother got beaten up, gathered over 100 people, armed with machetes, and stood proudly at the entrance of our school.

  The instructor saw this and went up to pat the hooligan's shoulder, saying in a low voice: "Don't use a knife, just kick him twice!"
