Urban Martial Saint

Ding San was standing at the doorway of the washroom, recalling the image of his daughter’s death. Suddenly, he heard the Big Sister mention the name Ding Xuanxuan, and he immediately snapped back as if struck by lightning. His eyes flushed red, staring intently at the six little sisters inside the washroom.

There was no mistake; his daughter had been driven to death by them. The torment these three girls were enduring now was exactly what his daughter suffered before she died. Or rather, the torment his daughter suffered had been even crueler than this!

The six little sisters inside the washroom had no idea someone was watching from outside. The Big Sister, still displaying an air of arrogance, said, ”Let me tell you, don’t think that causing a death would scare me. Ding Xuanxuan is dead, so what? Her family came looking for trouble with me, and they all ended up dead like her. Hah, in Tianhui City, there’s no one I fear. You three, either behave and obey me, or I’ll throw you off the building, so you can experience what Ding Xuanxuan felt!”

Hearing this, Ding San’s expression changed again. He quickly took a step forward and said in a low voice, ”What did you just say?”

The girls in the washroom were startled by the voice from the doorway. They turned their heads to look at Ding San, surprised to see a man in the girls’ dormitory. However, the six little sisters, accustomed to being arrogant and overbearing, weren’t frightened; they’d seen plenty of similar situations before.

”Who the fuck are you? Do you know this is a girls’ dormitory? Who the hell let you in?” The Big Sister pointed at Ding San, cursing arrogantly, completely disregarding him.

Ding San stared at her, his gaze unyielding, and said in a low voice, ”What did you just say about how Ding Xuanxuan died? Say it again. How did Ding Xuanxuan die?”

”This... this has nothing fucking to do with you!” The Big Sister was clearly uneasy about the question and angrily responded, ”Who... who the hell are you? Why are you asking about this?”

”Big Sister, I’ve seen him before. He looks like Ding Xuanxuan’s worthless father!” One of the little sisters said cautiously, ”When Ding Xuanxuan died, he was the one who came to collect the corpse!”

”Oh, so it’s him!” The Big Sister suddenly relaxed and said, ”Hah, I thought it was someone important, but it’s just Ding Xuanxuan’s pathetic father? Hahaha, I remember now, when we were beating that bitch, she kept crying and calling her dad’s name. What was it again... Ding San, isn’t it? You’re Ding San, huh?”

Thinking of his daughter crying out his name while being surrounded and beaten by these people, Ding San felt his heart ache. Gritting his teeth, he stared at the Big Sister and said in a low voice, ”I’ll ask you again: how did my daughter die?”

”How your daughter died, you, her father, don’t even know and you come asking us?” The Big Sister sneered at Ding San and said, ”Ding, stop bluffing here. Let me tell you, you’re not even qualified to play games with me. I’m going to count to three. Get the hell out of here immediately, or I won’t even bother to call the police on you. Believe it or not, I can make one call and get hundreds of people here to drown you in spit!”

The other little sisters burst into laughter, as the Big Sister’s arrogance greatly satisfied their vanity.

But Ding San wasn’t intimidated by her words. He let out a long sigh and said, ”Forget it, what’s the point in knowing so much? In the end, it’ll all end the same. No matter what, this is all for avenging my daughter.”

”What the fuck are you mumbling about? Are you leaving or not?” The Big Sister shouted loudly. ”I’m going to start counting: one, two...”

Before she could get to three, Ding San strode into the washroom, heading straight for the Big Sister.

”What are you doing?” The Big Sister yelled angrily. ”You don’t know your place, huh? I told you to leave, and you dare come in here? Are you looking to die?”

Ding San ignored her completely and walked straight toward the little sister closest to the entrance.

That little sister, seeing Ding San’s aggressive demeanor, was visibly scared. She wanted to step back, but her usual arrogance and pride wouldn’t let her. Backing away would mean losing face.

While she hesitated, unsure of what to do, Ding San reached her, grabbed her collar firmly with one hand.

”What are you doing!” The little sister screamed, struggling desperately. But she, a girl, was no match for Ding San.

The Big Sister was furious. She grabbed a mop from beside her and walked over, shouting curses, ”Ding, are you looking to die? Believe it or not, I’ll...”

Before she could finish, she stopped abruptly, as Ding San pulled out a bloodstained dagger from his waist.

”You...” The little sister in Ding San’s grip tried to scream, but it was already too late. Ding San plunged the dagger into her neck and slashed forcefully, severing her throat. Blood sprayed out from her neck, and she collapsed, dead.

The other five little sisters, who had been arrogant until now, froze in terror at the sudden turn of events. They were stunned; though they often bullied others in school, they had never experienced such a horrifying scene.

The three other girls shrieked in fear, but their screams were futile. In the girls’ dormitory, the six little sisters often bullied other girls at night, reducing them to tears and cries for help. But no one ever dared intervene. So even though the three girls screamed, it went unheard.

After dealing with the first little sister, Ding San turned his gaze toward the remaining five.

The five little sisters were trembling with fear. The Big Sister stammered, ”You... you... what are you planning to do?”

Ding San said nothing and walked slowly toward them. Then, pointing at the three other girls, he said in a low voice, ”You three, get out.”

The three girls ran out immediately, as if pardoned. The five little sisters tried to follow, but Ding San blocked the entrance; there was no way he’d let them leave.

Ding San shut the washroom door and used the lock he brought to secure it. Then he turned to look at the Big Sister and the remaining five. On the floor, the first little sister whose throat had been slit lay dead, while the remaining five were paralyzed with fear.

”Uncle Ding, let’s talk this out calmly...” Seeing Ding San approach, the Big Sister stammered, ”We’re all... all just kids. If you kill us, the charges will be severe... You’ll be executed...”

”I’ve already killed two people. Even if I’m executed, I’d be shot twice!” Ding San said coldly. ”Death is death—whether it’s one bullet, ten bullets, or a hundred bullets. When my daughter was alive, did you ever think of talking things out calmly with her? Now my daughter is dead, my family destroyed, and I’m the only one left. What else is there to say?”

The five little sisters looked at each other in fear. They all knew about the tragic downfall of the Ding Family. In school, they used to brag about their role in it, telling others about the Ding Family’s fate to intimidate students into submission. But now, hearing Ding San mention it, all they felt was terror.

Of course, Ding San had nothing left to lose. Killing one person meant death; killing a hundred people still meant death. Why would he spare anyone?

”Uncle Ding, Xuanxuan... Xuanxuan’s death wasn’t our fault. There’s blame to be assigned, but taking revenge on us... it won’t help her...” The Big Sister quivered as she spoke. ”The one who targeted Xuanxuan was Director Wu from the town’s finance bureau. He’s the one who ordered us to bully Xuanxuan. We were just following orders...”

”Don’t worry, I’ll deal with Wu. But you five have to go first to apologize to my daughter!” Ding San said coldly. ”Wu may have orchestrated it, but you were the ones who beat my daughter to death. You’ll die all the same!”

With these words, Ding San charged forward with the dagger. The five little sisters screamed in terror, abandoning their former arrogance. In school, they were once untouchable, even feared by people from outside the school, bragging about their connections and claiming they could summon help with a single phone call. But now, just one man and a blade were enough to end them. None of their ”connections” would come to save them.

The washroom door was locked, leaving the five little sisters with nowhere to run. The room was small, and Ding San quickly caught hold of another sister. Pinning her to the ground, he slashed her throat with the dagger. She struggled briefly before collapsing into a pool of blood—dying a grotesque death.

The remaining four screamed even louder, but their cries were futile. They had been so arrogant in school, bullying so many people, that when students outside heard what was happening, they turned a deaf ear, silently hoping someone would punish them severely.

Within less than five minutes, Ding San used the razor-sharp dagger to slit the throats of all five little sisters. He showed no mercy, for these were the same little sisters who had beaten his daughter to death. He had no sympathy for them whatsoever.

Finally, only the Big Sister remained. And she was on the brink of collapse, nearly wetting herself. Those five little sisters who had laughed with her, friends who had always been by her side, were now lying in pools of blood, their corpses gruesome. The most terrifying part was the bloodstained dagger in Ding San’s hand, as he chased her within the washroom. How could she not fear him?

”Uncle Ding, Uncle Ding, stop chasing me, please stop chasing me! I... I know I was wrong, I truly know I was wrong...” The Big Sister cried, begging desperately. ”What happened to Xuanxuan was my fault, yes, but... but I didn’t mean to kill her! Uncle Ding, please let me go...”
