C15 One should not judge one's appearance by one's appearance
DH-53, SS-14, LK-113... All kinds of retired military mobile armors were available, be they from the Empire or the Federation! The spacious deck of the aircraft carrier, which used to symbolize the power of the maritime hegemon, has now become a showcase for all kinds of weapon dealers to display their wares. Various figures are shuttling through this moving black market on the high seas in search of what they want. There was an endless stream of hawking, bargaining and sales. It was very lively!
"Wow — the Empire's DOK-50! Things here are really easy for both the young and the old!"
Dressed in an ornate, black, skin-tight suit, Cao Tianjiao gracefully strolled across the deck of the abandoned aircraft carrier while holding the expensive leather handbag. She couldn't help but exclaim in heartfelt praise as she looked at the different types of armor. It was obvious that these girls had never encountered such a powerful force before.
"Major, your intelligence network is quite impressive – it seems that the military mobile armours held by the terrorists are all transferred from here to the outside?"
Cao Tianjiao proudly looked at the doll dressed in a white dress. "Of course, by the way — didn't you say long ago that you shouldn't call me 'Major' casually? You should call me 'Sister'!"
"I know — sister!"
The kid smiled and looked back, "Little Li, hurry up and catch up! "If you keep dragging it out like this, my sister will fire you!"
"Ah, ah, I'm coming!"
Both Clara and Li Yuanba, who was wearing a low-cut black suit and carrying a black suitcase and wearing sunglasses, couldn't help but to look behind them. "Little Li — hurry up!" The three beauties turned around with bright smiles on their faces after agreeing in unison.
"Cao Tianjiao, bring a few girls with you and let your father pretend to be a follower to serve you! "Just wait and see, if I don't play you to death when I get the chance, I will have the same surname as you!"
It was unknown how many times Li Yuanba had secretly cursed in his heart: Yesterday, this Miss Cao had suddenly barged into his "luxurious" warehouse to inform him that he had found out through the informants the location of a mysterious black-market weapon market that was selling goods on the high seas today! Therefore, he decided to choose a few members from the 15th Special Service Squadron to be led by Li Yuanba into the open sea to investigate the conspiracy with him. After some discussion, Cao Tianjiao decided to disguise himself as the young miss of a rich family. The doll that was chosen acted as his sister, Long Yuangfeng was his bodyguard, and Clara, who had been secretly interviewing him, was his personal secretary. When Cao Tianjiao, with a sly smile, told Li Yuanba that there was only one male follower left in the room — Li Yuanba had already anticipated this kind of low-class scene …
"Hmm?"
Li Yuanba suddenly stopped in front of a booth. The desolate scene here was not any less bustling than the other booths on the commercial street of Hong Kong — a few old models of mobile armor were sitting listlessly on top of the dilapidated booth. Looking at their aged and ancient appearance, Li Yuanba felt that if he added up the age of these armors, he would have to call them uncle!
"Hey, hey!"
He couldn't help but pat the owner of the stall who was dozing off in a corner. He was dressed in shabby clothes, "En ~, what for?" The loud and clear sound was out of Li Yuanba's expectation — he saw that the old hat that covered his face had already been taken off. A slightly haggard male face, however, had a pair of sharp black eyes! When Li Yuanba collided with Li Yuanba's gaze, he could clearly feel this person's valiant and bold character!
"Have you taken a fancy to a piece of armor or something?"
"No, that's not …"
Casually waving his arm in front of those broken antiques, he asked, "These are all your goods?" Li Yuanba asked as he stared intently at the mysterious businessman's sharp eyes.
"That's all. If you want to buy it, just take the money. If you don't want to buy it, just scram!" "Don't disturb my sweet dream!"
After impatiently throwing away these harsh words, the man was just about to retreat to the corner just now when Li Yuanba grabbed his arm.
"What do you want to do?!"
"Friend — who would be willing to display such good stuff in such a place?"
Lightly stroking the palm that had been knocked to the side, Li Yuanba was still looking at this strange merchant with confidence!
"Brat, are you f * cking a b * tch?"
"That's none of your business — all I'm asking you is this: let me see what your real goods are like."
"Get lost!"
He felt his eyebrows suddenly tighten: allowing Li Yuanba to grab his collar, the man's sharp eyes flashed with a trace of a unique killing intent that only professional soldiers would have!
"Little Li — don't cause trouble for others there. Come here right now!"
He looked in the direction of Cao Tian Jiao's group, "Your master is calling you. Now that I'm too lazy to deal with you, get lost!" While he was speaking, Li Yuanba felt a heavy force suddenly push away his palm. At this moment, he was still motionless as he watched Li Yuanba slowly tidy up his collar, getting more and more interested.
"But I am naturally shameless – I have taken a fancy to you!"
"F * ck, I think you are asking for a beating!"
However, at this moment, a commotion sounded out from the crowd not far away. "Big Brother, Big Brother, quickly save me!" Accompanied by the young girl's trembling call, not long later, a pretty girl dressed in fashionable clothing already rushed out of the crowd in a fluster and quickly ran behind the weapon dealer who was about to fight with Li Yuan Ba.
"Little Fei, what happened?!"
"Big bro, there's a group of people, they were trying to touch me just now! "Ah — here they are, I'm afraid!"
The girl called Little Fei extended her hand forward with a trembling motion. A few well-dressed young men from the moving crowd had already squeezed their way out! Pushing Li Yuanba who was in front of him away, the young weapon merchant picked up a metal bat from the ground and slowly walked towards the group of troublemakers.
"Zhao Changlong — your sister is too insensible. Sixth Brother wants to treat her to a meal, but look at how her cat claws scratched our Sixth Brother's hand! "You should at least give me an explanation, right?"
At this moment, a man who seemed to be the leader among the group of hoodlums extended his clearly scratched hand forward as if he was showing off, and then winked teasingly at the girl hiding behind Zhao Changlong.
"Guo Laoxi — Remove your dog eyes from my sister!"
In the face of Zhao Changlong's baseball bat, Guo Lao Liu's hands stopped his subordinates who were about to rush forward.
"Zhao Changlong, I know you are a man! But don't be too ignorant … you know what sort of methods' Fifth Uncle 'has towards the Dao! It's hard for us to say anything about him because he thinks so highly of you. As long as you keep me company for a night, I can assure you that by this afternoon you won't be able to produce even a single piece of this shoddy piece of equipment for the highest price! "Think about it?"
Just as his voice fell, a sneer had already slipped past Zhao Changlong's face: "What the f * ck are you laughing for …" A hooligan who couldn't help but charge forward heard a dull thump halfway through his sentence — he saw that the unforetold metal ball hitting directly onto the head of the unlucky fellow. Several spinning little swallows had appeared on top of the fellow's head, and following a long trail of blood flowing out from the top of his head, that bulky body immediately fell down.
"Stinking brat, if you refuse a toast, you will be punished. Brothers, attack!"
With Guo Laoxuan's order, five to six hooligans surrounded Zhao Changlong with their weapons! Zhao Changlong cleverly covered his sister, Xiao Fei, behind him. He waved the bat in his hand like a bolt of lightning, and the few hooligans couldn't even get close to him! Although the fighting here was very intense, the merchants or buyers would still do their own thing regardless of whether they asked for it or not. It seemed that such things were already common in this land of corruption.
"…"
Meanwhile, the face of Old Guo, who was standing in the outer ring watching his subordinate fight with Zhao Changlong, started to turn more and more blue as his subordinates successively beat him. The arm with the terrifying green dragon tattoo on it had already slowly reached into the inner pocket of his shirt, and soon, the hilt of the pistol, which was flashing with a black and dull heavy luster, was completely revealed from the inside!
Just as Guo Lao Liu was about to pull out his gun, he suddenly felt his wrist tighten, "Brat, you, what are you trying to do!?" A stranger in a black suit whom he had never seen before had already grabbed his gun arm.
"My friend — you are not doing this for the good man!"
"Fuck you, it's best to mind your own business, Mr. Guo!" "Release me immediately!"
Guo Lao Liu yelled as he tried to pull his hand away. At that moment, he seemed to see a dangerous aura being emitted from the hidden eyes under the black sunglasses! In the next instant, he felt that the world in front of him had completely turned upside down as he did not know what had happened. "Ouch!" Accompanied by a sharp scream, his body, which was like a cannonball, solidly smashed into the back of a rogue who was hesitating in front of Zhao Changlong. Seeing that their leader had been knocked down at an unknown time, the remaining thugs heard a loud "bang" — — Under the crisp sound of the gunfire, almost everyone turned their heads around, only to see Li Yuanba raising the pistol in his hand high up with a thin wisp of green smoke coming out from the muzzle of the gun.
"If you don't want to leave your little life here — take these idiots on the ground and get lost!"
The weapons in his hands dropped all over the floor, "Good boy, you have guts. We have made a deal today. I will get my revenge sooner or later!" Seeing the gun that originally belonged to him was already in Li Yuanba's hands, Old Guo Liu, who was being helped up by a few of his subordinates, spat out a few harsh words with a dirty face, then quickly ran away with his henchman in a sorry state.
"Li — Xiao Li, Xiao Li, are you alright?"
At this moment, under Cao Tian Jiao's efforts to stop the doll from moving forward, the doll in front of him finally shook off the arm in front of him. Seeing the cute girl looking at his body with a worried expression, Li Yuanba shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly.
"He's too reckless. Even if he's fooling around, there should be a limit!"
Cao Tian Jiao also brought the remaining three women to Li Yuan Ba's side. Although they still talked without mercy, but from their eyes, other than the indifferent Clara, everyone else had a face full of concern.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine."
As he spoke, Li Yuanba pulled the wrinkles on his clothes back and forth. The people who were attracted over by the crisp sound of the gunfire had returned to their original state, each of them going back to their own business.
"Hello, that kid with sunglasses over there?"
Li Yuanba turned his head and saw Zhao Changlong throw the baseball bat in his hand to the side and pull her sister, Xiao Fei, who was enjoying his face, out from behind him, "Thank you for helping out just now!" After a moment of silence, the tone of Zhao Changlong's voice became much softer.
The pistol in Guo Lao Liu's hand was casually thrown into the sea by Li Yuan Ba: "Be careful, there is a saying that a dragon cannot crush a snake on the ground! In a place like this, I don't think you have much business to do. "
"…"
After another moment of silence, Zhao Changlong turned around to look at his sister, "Little Fei, pack up your things. We're not going to do business today." After moving away Little Fei and stroking his chin, Zhao Changlong once again looked at Li Yuanba.
"Wait a moment, we'll leave as soon as we're done here?"
"Where to?"
"My house — you want to see my real thing, don't you? I'll watch it for you! "
With that, Zhao Changlong no longer bothered with Li Yuanba and the others who wanted to ask more, and went to help his sister tidy up her worn-out mobile armor.
"Hey, Brother Li — that person?"
He turned around and looked at the beauties behind him who had a doubtful expression on their faces. "Believe me, this person might be able to bring us an unexpected harvest!" As he said that, Li Yuanba definitely winked at them.
"As the saying goes, one shouldn't judge a book by its cover!"
