Transmigrating Into a Book, the Villain Becomes the White Moonlight!

25: Chapter 25 The Other Side of Su BaiThe two of them arrived at that phone repair shop.

Standing prominently at the shop entrance were four or five burly men in black suits, the atmosphere chillingly solemn.

Uncle Fu stood inside the shop, looking calm and composed.

Su Bai walked in, leading Mu Xue, whose eyes were red and swollen.

The owner, who had been sitting behind the counter, was now pale. Seeing this display, his voice trembled slightly: ”Wh-what are you doing? In broad daylight...”

Su Bai didn’t bother with nonsense and simply waved his hand. Two of the burly men immediately entered the shop, while another two pulled down the rolling shutter halfway, blocking the view from outside.

One of the men walked up to the owner and took out a phone. On the screen was the post from the campus forum. He pointed at the screenshots of the chat logs, his voice low and oppressive: ”Did you do this?”

”I... I don’t know what you’re talking about!” The shop owner’s face was deathly pale, his eyes darting around as he instinctively denied it. However, his gaze unconsciously and frantically flickered toward Mu Xue, who stood behind Su Bai and was equally pale. This subtle movement already betrayed his guilt.

Su Bai didn’t even bother to spare him another glance, turning around to face away from the counter.

Immediately after—

”Ahhh—!!!”

A shrill, distorted scream erupted from the owner’s throat, accompanied by the cringe-inducing, distinct sound of a bone snapping!

Standing slightly behind Su Bai, Mu Xue saw everything clearly—one of the men in black had seized the owner’s arm with lightning speed and cleanly dislocated it!

The twisted angle and the owner’s suddenly limp body made her blood run cold.

”Ah!” Mu Xue let out an involuntary, short cry of alarm, her hands flying to cover her mouth. She stumbled back several steps in terror until her back hit the cold wall, barely managing to steady herself.

The scene of violence before her was far beyond her psychological threshold.

Only then did Su Bai leisurely turn around, his gaze falling on the sweat-drenched owner as if looking at a piece of trash. His voice was devoid of emotion as he repeated the previous question:

”I’ll ask you one last time. Did you do it?”

Breaking the law?

In this world composed of power-fantasy novels, at least until the so-called child of destiny appeared to stir up trouble, the wealth and power possessed by the Su Family in the territory of City A were, in a way, the rules themselves—they were the law!

”It... it was me... I just... it was a momentary impulse, I was possessed...” The shop owner was nearly fainting from the pain, beads of sweat rolling down his forehead. His inner terror had completely overwhelmed any other thought.

He finally realized that his momentary greed had provoked someone he absolutely could not afford to offend.

”Call the police,” Su Bai instructed Uncle Fu. ”Let him reflect on his actions in prison for the rest of his life.”

Upon hearing the word ’prison’, the owner reacted like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. Ignoring the excruciating pain in his arm, he struggled and screamed: ”Don’t! Young man! No... Big brother! Big brother, have mercy! I... I didn’t know she was your woman! I really didn’t know! If I had known, I wouldn’t have dared even if I had a hundred times the courage!”

He pleaded incoherently, trying to grasp at any possible sliver of hope.

Su Bai remained expressionless and unmoved.

Uncle Fu signaled the men to prepare to take him away.

The owner completely lost his head. Faced with absolute, crushing power, he no longer cared about anything else and shouted as if catching his last lifeline:

”Wait! Big brother! Wait! Today... someone else came today! Someone else came to ask about this! He seems to know too!”

”Who?” Su Bai suddenly felt a surge of alertness.

”If... if I tell you, can... can I not go to prison?” The owner lifted his head tremulously, his face a mask of pain.

”Speak!” One of the men beside him was not polite at all, delivering a heavy backhand slap to his face that made him see stars.

”It... it was a student! From your school! A boy! He came to ask me this morning!” The owner didn’t dare hide anything anymore and hurriedly blurted out the truth.

A student? A boy?

Hearing this, Mu Xue’s face instantly turned as pale as paper, devoid of any color. A deeper chill shot up her spine from the soles of her feet.

Su Bai stepped forward quickly, closing in on the owner, and asked sharply: ”Where’s the surveillance? Pull up the footage!”

”It’s... in that computer over there...” The owner pointed with his good arm toward an old computer inside the counter.

A tech-savvy man immediately stepped forward, skillfully operating the machine to quickly retrieve today’s surveillance footage.

”At... at this time! That’s him!” The owner pointed at a frozen figure on the screen, hurriedly confirming.

Su Bai’s sharp gaze fixed on the monitor. In the footage, a familiar and loathsome figure appeared clearly in the phone shop, talking to the owner.

Kamii Ta-no!

”Tsk, damn it.” Seeing that disgusting face clearly on the surveillance screen, Su Bai squeezed out a curse through his teeth.

He gave Uncle Fu a look, signaling for them to handle things there, while he himself turned and walked out of the shop without hesitation.

”Let’s go!” he barked at Mu Xue, who was still frozen in place.

Mu Xue had no tears left; she had long since been scared out of her wits by the clean bone-snapping scene earlier, all color drained from her pretty face.

At Su Bai’s shout, she jolted, snapping out of her immense terror. Almost instinctively, she stumbled after Su Bai, not daring to hesitate for a second.

Just as the two of them stepped out of the shop, the rolling shutter behind them was pulled down with a crash and locked tight by the men inside, cutting off everything within.

Mu Xue instinctively kept a bit of distance from Su Bai, following cautiously behind him, even making her breathing much lighter.

In her previous impression, Su Bai was just a wealthy, willful playboy with a bit of a foul mouth, though he was relatively gentle in bed.

She never saw, and could not even imagine, that he had such a violent and cold side. The way he treated others’ pain as nothing and decided their fates while talking and laughing made her tremble with fear from the bottom of her heart.

”Is there anyone in your class you trust and who can keep their mouth shut?” Su Bai asked without looking back, his voice returning to its former calm.

”...Yes, there is,” Mu Xue replied softly.

”Message her and have her pack up your schoolbag and all your personal belongings and bring them to the school gate,” Su Bai instructed with clear logic. ”You’re not going to the classroom today.”

Mu Xue immediately did as she was told and messaged her seatmate.

Not long after, her female seatmate hurriedly ran to the school gate clutching Mu Xue’s bag and some miscellaneous items.

From a distance, the girl saw Su Bai waiting there—wasn’t this the boy who had shone so brightly on the playground yesterday, drawing cheers from the entire crowd?
