Vermillion Auction Surveillance Room
There were five men in black watching the monitor. The monitor showed a replay of the incident that happened in front of the toilet on the second floor. It showed Oh Chunyong was waiting in the front of the toilet.
A few seconds later, Lan Lan came out of the toilet. When Lan Lan came out, Oh Chunyong forcefully grabbed Lan Lan's hand. However, Lan Lan struggled and bit Oh Chunyong's hand.
Oh Chunyong threw the little girl on the wall. The little girl was crying as blood flowed from her head.
Here, three out of five men in black frowned. One of them opened his mouth and spoke in an impatient tone, "Don't show this to us, we want to know how that man killed Oh Chunyong, not this worthless show!"
"But this is the start of that incident. Ranker Oh Chunyong started…" The operator who showed the replay tried to explain. He thought the five rankers from Ranker Alliance wanted to know the chronology of that event. So he showed the replay from the start.
"Are you deaf? Do you want me to repeat it once again?" another man in black coldly stared at the operated.
These five men were the ones who in charge of Vermillion Auction House for tonight auction. Four of them were unranked Gold Class rankers and one of them was ranked.
Karam Ganesh, Gold Class Ranker - Rank 79. Ranker Alliance appointed him as the person in charge of the security of tonight's monthly auction. After the auction was over, he heard there was a Bronze Class ranker died.
This made him furious, how come a ranker died in their domain, the ranker domain. He had to find the culprit, or else Ranker Alliance would give him a severe penalty. He did not care what was the cause, what he wanted to know was the culprit.
He came here to look at how strong the man killed Oh Chunyong and decided what they would do later. His mood was pretty bad, but now this operator also pissed him off.
The operator also realized he just pissed off someone he should not. He immediately followed the order and skipped the scene where Oh Chunyong slammed Lan Lan on the wall. It skipped to where Heero appeared to tend Lan Lan.
They could not see what Heero did to Lan Lan as it was blocked with his body. There was only a single camera near the toilet. The could not see it.
Then, in the next moment, the five men astonished when they watched how Heero killed Oh Chunyong. No resistance from Oh Chunyong which was puzzled the five Gold Class Rankers.
Karam Ganesh furrowed his eyebrows. The five attendants close to Oh Chunyong were collapsed and Oh Chunyong did not have resistance when he was beaten and slammed down.
Even the opponent was strong, Oh Chunyong could still do a little action to resist. Just like the little girl who resisted earlier by biting Oh Chunyong's hand. However, Oh Chunyong did nothing or maybe he could not?
'Is it an illusion?'
Karam Ganesh turned around, the five attendants that collapsed on the screen were here, five of them.
"What did you feel?" Karam Ganesh asked with his cold voice.
The five attendants looked at each other. Three women and two men, a man braced himself and spoke, "I don't know, it happened too sudden. My body became heavy and I was also getting dizzy from the pressure… I… I…"
The male attendant explanation trailed off as he really could not tell what happened. Meanwhile, the other four attendants nodded their heads. They also felt the same thing, but they just did not know what happened back then.
Karam Ganesh rubbed his forehead. It was not as he thought, not an illusion, but a pressure. He remembered there was a ranker with the same ability, gravity. However, he did not know there was a gravity field inflicted dizziness.
"Then do you know who's this man? Why were they on the second floor?" Karam Ganesh asked again. He had to know the man's background first, then he would decide what he would do next.
The four attendants simultaneously looked toward a female attendant. This female attendant was the one who took care of Heero's room.
"H-he is Blacksmith Huang Jun's friend! They come together." being stared, the female attendant was nervous.
"Blacksmith Huang Jun? The blacksmith who auctioned the Legendary and Gold Class sword?" Karam Ganesh was surprised when heard the name of Huang Jun.
This name was the main attraction tonight. A Legendary Class sword appeared and this man was the one who auctioned this sword.
Karam thought this might be troublesome. But after he gave some thought, he got an idea and smiled.
"You can go now!" Karam Ganesh dismissed the five attendants and the operator with a wave of his hand.
The operator and the five attendants bowed their heads and left the room, leaving only five Gold Class Rankers.
"What we should do now, Captain?" one Gold Class ranker looked at Karam Ganesh. The other unranked Gold Class ranker also looked at Karam Ganesh.
"What we should do? Of course, we will catch the culprit! We will catch him tomorrow morning. Also copy that video, it might be handy for us tomorrow!"
Karam Ganesh smiled as he gave his order to his subordinates.
...
Because of so, Karam Ganesh and his subordinates visited Miao Miao Noodles Shop at 11 am.
Karam Ganesh barged into the shop. He scanned the small shop, looking for his target. Then he found Heero just delivered two bowls of noodles.
He approached Heero and took a plate made of gold. There were words written on it, Karam Ganesh showed the gold plate to Heero and said in a toneless voice, "Xing Heero, you are arrested for murder!"
Heero turned around and saw an unfamiliar face. But from the look of this man, Heero could tell this man came with no good intention.
He ignored Karam Ganesh and turned to Yun Qiu Fan and Feng Bian who were about to have a challenge.
"Please enjoy the noodles and don't cheat! We have a camera to watch you guys!" Heero warned Yun Qiu Fan and Feng Bian as he pointed his finger to a camera.
Yun Qiu Fan gazed at Heero with a weird look, the same for Feng Bian.
"Brother Xing, he wants to catch you, so you should worry about yourself." Feng Bian pointed his finger toward Karam Ganesh.
Heero waved his hand, "You don't have to worry about it, I did nothing wrong."
"But he said you are arrested for murder." Feng Bian stood up and came closer to Heero and asked in a curious look, "Tell me, Brother Xing, what you did? If you did nothing wrong, there's no way Rankers Alliance wants to catch you. This guy is from Ranker Alliance!"
Rather than answering Feng Bian's question, Heero was rather curious about something.
"You know he is from Ranker Alliance, but you seem not afraid this ranker. This is rare for someone from the outer region who does not fear the ranker." Heero commented.
Yes, Feng Bian was pointing his finger toward Karam Ganesh. It was rude to point your finger to someone else, but Feng Bian kept pointing his finger toward Karam Ganesh.
"Hoho, you don't know yet. I am a hero, do you know. Gold Class - Rank 21, Feng Bian. If you need my help, I will gladly help you~" Feng Bian introduced himself and a proud look plastered on his face.
Heero was surprised when he heard this, he did not expect this Feng Bian was a hero. He shook his head and smiled, "There's no need, just enjoy your noodles. I will take care of them!"
Karam Ganesh was pissed off inside, but he did not dare to show it. Even though Heero ignored, he did not dare to release his anger out. It because of Feng Bian, he recognized Feng Bian of course, second son of the head of Feng Family, and also Gold Class Hero - Rank 21.
Feng Bian was in a different class, he could not afford to offend such a big shot. However, he also did not show a respectful stance to Feng Bian. Hero and Ranker were a rival for a long time ago, there was no way Karam Ganesh would lower his head to a Hero.
Heero turned around, looking at the clock. It was 11 am, after that he looked back at Karam Ganesh, "Mr. Ranker, there are many customers inside, let's talk outside, shall we?"
After saying that, Heero turned toward the kitchen, he saw Hong Yu and Han Ying were standing behind the counter with a concerned look.
Heero smiled and made an okay gesture, telling them to not get worried. However, that one gesture was not enough to brush their worries off.
Karam Ganesh walked, Heero followed behind. The curious Feng Bian also followed, he chased after Heero, "Brother Xing, tell me! What happened? I am really curious, you know? I might die from curiosity! Tell me! Tell me! Do you really kill someone? But if you really killed someone, it's supposed to be police or hero, but why does ranker want to catch you?"
When Feng Bian reached this conclusion, he realized something and looked toward Heero with an astonished look, "Brother Xing, don't tell me you killed a ranker?"
Heero was smiling instead of denying. Actually, he himself did not know if Oh Chunyong dead or alive, but he knew what Karam Ganesh came for last night's incident.
"I don't know, but do you know Lan Lan, right? The little girl you saw in the morning."
Feng Bian did not know why Heero ask about this, but he still nodded his head. He saw a little girl had her head bandaged. He also often met that little girl, a cheerful little girl. However, this morning, he discovered the little girl seemed to be afraid of strangers now.
"Yes, I know. What about her?"
"Last night, there's a ranker called Mr. Chunyong?? I forgot the man's name, but he is a ranker who injured Lan Lan. Did you see the bandage on her head, it was caused by that ranker last night."
"If not for me came at the right time, maybe you would not be able to see that little girl this morning," Heero replied with the story what happened last night in Vermillion Auction House.
Feng Bian furrowed his eyebrows, it was not the first time he heard this kind of story.
"Then I beat that man, I slammed that ranker's head on the wall just like what he did to Lan Lan. I did that for sometimes and leave. I don't know if that man alive or dead, but this Mr. Ranker said he would arrest me for murder, that means that ranker is dead."
Heero continued with a nonchalant tone. It was as if he did not care and did not feel guilty in the slightest. This meant this was not the first time Heero killed someone. Feng Bian fell silent and decided to watch this from the sidelines.
He felt Heero was also wrong from killing Oh Chunyong, he could not take Heero's side. But there was one thing puzzled Feng Bian, did Heero that strong to kill a ranker? He soon would find out.
When Heero came out, he found another four rankers with the same outfit. These four men gazed at Heero with unmasked of killing intent, revealing hostility they had to Heero.
Heero ignored their gaze and found Butcher Wang and Sun Zhou Yi just came back from their morning training.
"You two come back at the right time. You have been training for over a month, almost two months maybe? Nah, whatever, let's see what you have learned. Beat them!"
Heero pointed his finger toward the five rankers. This was the reason Heero looked at the clock before he came out. He wanted Sun Zhou Yi and Butcher Wang to face the five rankers.
