Sorry, Our Captain Is a True All-Rounder

Chapter 169: Chapter 169: We Have a Backer

Their gazes were slimy and disgusting. Feng He sensed something was wrong and instinctively hid behind Mo Xuan.

Mo Xuan immediately shielded him, his gaze sweeping over the men with vicious intensity.

Lin Jingjing, however, didn’t move. She stood her ground, her eyes filled with disdain as she scanned them.

”Yes, we’re here looking for work,” Lin Jingjing replied coldly.

She looked at them and said seriously, ”Are the job positions you’re offering real? What’s the catch?”

The man dropped the cigarette butt from his mouth to the ground, crushed it out with his leather shoe, and said, ”Follow me.”

He then turned and walked inside, his companions following close behind.

Watching their backs, Lin Jingjing quietly reminded her team, ”If we run into trouble, your own safety is the top priority. If these guys die, they die.”

No one answered, but their hands all drifted toward the Space Rings they had recently acquired.

Inside were weapons, Mecha, and other equipment.

They also carried Cold Weapons on them.

They followed them forward, watching the street entrance recede into the distance. The people around them were sallow and gaunt, their hair a sickly yellow—all clear signs of malnutrition.

Before they reached their destination, a man suddenly rushed out. His body was covered in wounds, his eyes were bleeding, and he looked utterly desperate.

”Brother Jun, I’m begging you! I’ll kowtow to you, just please give me my wages! My wife is waiting for medical treatment.”

”The doctor said today that we can’t delay any longer. If we wait, she’s really going to die!”

But this Brother Jun just kicked the man away with a look of disgust before straightening his own clothes.

He looked down on him condescendingly and said, ”You signed a contract with us. You have to work the full three years before you get all your wages. It’s only been half a year.”

”We can only give you two thousand Star Coins a month.”

The man collapsed to the ground, howling in grief at his words. ”You tricked me! You said I’d get my Star Coins as long as I worked hard!”

”You’ll all get what’s coming to you! You’re all going to die!”

But Brother Jun just sneered, ”The one who’ll get what’s coming is the boss of the Huanle Company, not me. We’re just working for him.”

”Get lost!”

As he spoke, a few of his lackeys immediately came and dragged the man aside.

After fixing his clothes, Brother Jun dropped the pretense. They were on Huanle’s turf now; there was no escape.

”You all, come with me.” Brother Jun gestured toward a large white villa up ahead. The five of them watched their surroundings warily. Among the people they saw were men, women, and even some heavily pregnant women.

Their faces were all numb and indifferent. This crowd looked at Lin Jingjing and her group without even a hint of a warning.

They just stared coldly, their chilling gazes leaving the five of them a little surprised.

Upon entering the white villa, the first thing they saw was a young woman lying on the living room sofa.

She was lying there completely naked, her eyes shut tight, seemingly asleep.

The young woman had fair skin and a beautiful face; just lying there, she would draw anyone’s attention.

When Gu Kaiwen, Mo Xuan, and Shi Feng came in and saw this, they all silently averted their eyes, looking elsewhere in the villa.

Brother Jun walked up to the sofa, placed a hand on the woman’s chest, and then grinned at the three men. ”Want a taste?”

”We just got this chick a few days ago.”

Mo Xuan refused coldly, ”No, thanks.”

Gu Kaiwen clenched his fists, wanting desperately to kill these animals.

Just then, a few men from behind came and dragged the woman away.

After dragging her to a nearby rug, they tossed her onto it. Lin Jingjing then heard the sound of a belt being unbuckled.

”Did that other group come to blow off steam again this morning?”

”Look at her stomach. It’s getting bigger.”

”Hahahaha, she’s a little pregnant lady now.”

The thugs’ conversation and actions pushed the team’s anger to its absolute peak.

Brother Jun sat down, listened to the activity behind him, and said with a chuckle, ”The guys here work too hard. They all come here to blow off some steam.”

”If you get tired in the future, you can come, too. For the ladies, you can go to that red building up front. It’s full of pretty boys.”

’So they have guys, too?’

”We’re here to discuss a partnership.” Lin Jingjing didn’t sit down. She stared at him coldly. ”What’s the real name of your company?”

Lin Jingjing had overheard their earlier conversation, and the name had sounded off.

”Huanle Company,” Brother Jun said, pulling out a business card and handing it to them. ”See for yourselves.”

Lin Jingjing took the business card, and as she read it, her face fell.

The name was indeed ”Huanle,” but it was a deliberate misspelling—a homophone for the real company.

They had been mistaken.

”The boss is just piggybacking on the name of Huanle Group Co., Ltd.,” Brother Jun explained.

The lead was wrong. Without hesitation, Lin Jingjing opened her Star Ring and placed a video call to Lu Shaoyu.

He answered almost immediately.

”Lin Daxiao, did you find something?”

”Bring your men and secure this location. Then have everyone from this Huanle Group arrested.” Lin Jingjing’s face was cold as she issued the command. ”And remember, not a single employee of this company is to leave Capital Star.”

Although Lu Shaoyu was confused, he acknowledged the order and immediately set out with his men.

At the same time, another team was dispatched to the Huanle Group company to make arrests.

After hanging up, Lin Jingjing used her spiritual power to manifest a handgun and opened fire on the men who were still having their way with the woman.

She didn’t even look, but every shot she fired hit a vital spot.

The woman on the floor didn’t wake up; she must have already passed out.

The blood that spattered onto her face was starkly visible.

Brother Jun was shocked by her sudden actions, but he reacted quickly.

”You’re with the military?”

”That’s right.” Feng He couldn’t take it anymore. He clenched his fist and punched the man square in the face.

The single punch knocked out two of his teeth.

”You can’t do this! Our boss has powerful backing!” Brother Jun shouted, clutching his face.

”Backing?” Feng He chuckled, squatting down. He pulled out a dagger, used it to tip up the man’s chin, and stared at him fiercely. ”Who is your boss’s backer?”

”Talk.”

”Our boss’s backer is a member of the cabinet! He’s deeply trusted by the King! Arrest us if you want to make an enemy of the King!”

Brother Jun started laughing. ”I guarantee it, you’re all going to die horribly.”

Feng He wasn’t listening. He raised his hand and plunged the dagger into the man’s thigh.

When he pulled the dagger out, blood began to well up from the wound.

Brother Jun started howling in pain.

”AAAAAH—”

”I’m going to kill you!”

He yelled, his hand reaching for the coffee table drawer. He pulled out a laser gun.

Before he could fire, Feng He snatched it away from him.
