Parking lot.
Gu Chenan wiped the blood stain from his fist, looking towards Hoshino Kannon.
Hoshino Kannon was using a tissue to wipe the blood stains off her cheeks, using a car's window as a mirror.
Meanwhile, Li Rufeng and his disciples were sprawled on the ground, each with a face swollen and bruised.
Originally, Gu Chenan had planned to kill these people right here.
But thoughts are idealistic, reality is harsh.
He glanced at the gawkers crowding the parking lot and shook his head in resignation.
Though the parking lot was secluded, people still came here.
If he and Hoshino Kannon openly massacred them here, they'd likely end up in solitary confinement, eating three square meals a day behind bars.
"Hey, is that the Young Master Gu?"
"Seems like it!"
"Can't believe Young Master Gu is so powerful, over a dozen guys and none were a match for him!"
"That girl beside Young Master Gu is incredible too, her speed is too fast to even see clearly!"
The onlookers exclaimed in amazement and discussion.
"Who are those guys though, what did they do to provoke Young Master Gu?"
"Can't tell, they're too bruised and swollen to make out!"
Their chatter reached Li Rufeng's ears as he lay on the ground.
"Gu...Gu Chenan!" Li Rufeng, with a swollen black eye, raised a finger and spat, "You...you wait for this!"
[Geez, even in this state he's still talking tough?]
[If not for all these gawkers, I would have finished you off right here!]
[But even if I don't kill you, I'll at least embarrass you thoroughly!]
Gu Chenan took a deep breath and spoke loudly, "Li Rufeng, you've repeatedly picked fights and I can no longer tolerate it. You've gone too far!"
"What?!"
Upon hearing this, the onlookers were aghast.
"That guy is Li Rufeng of the Li Family?!"
"I'll be damned, isn't Li Rufeng supposed to be the strongest in Suhang's ancient martial arts circle? How did Young Master Gu beat him to a pulp like that?"
"Not quite right, Li Rufeng came with his disciples, while Young Master Gu only had that girl with him!"
"Holy crap! So one Young Master Gu is equivalent to Li Rufeng plus all his disciples!"
"Damn, he's that monstrous? I thought Young Master Gu was just from a powerful background, didn't expect his skills to be so terrifying too!"
Hearing the eruption of discussion from the crowd, Li Rufeng's aged face turned beet red, wishing he could find a hole to crawl into.
Dammit, how embarrassing!
After being revered in Suhang for so many years, he's now being openly mocked and ridiculed.
It seems Gu Chenan can't be dealt with by me alone, I'll have to involve the entire Li Family!
*Swish*
Thinking this, Li Rufeng abruptly stood up, perhaps for the sake of saving face, he covered his swollen eye and said, "Gu Chenan, I admit your skills are decent, but I'm not the only one in the Li Family!"
"Just you wait, the Li Family will definitely get revenge!"
Originally, Li Rufeng's goal was to get justice for Liang Bufan, while also regaining his own face.
But after being beaten so thoroughly by Gu Chenan, things had completely changed.
He had utterly lost face, the only way to regain it would be to drive Gu Chenan out of Suhang completely.
However...Gu Chenan would never give him that opportunity.
Gu Chenan sighed, shaking his head in resignation.
[This is really the classic case of beating the youngster only to have the elder step in, then beating the elder only to have the whole clan get involved.]
[If not for all these people here, this wouldn't be so complicated.]
With no choice, Gu Chenan could only respond, "Fine, I'll wait."
With that, he pulled Hoshino Kannon into the car and drove off, putting the pedal to the metal.
Seeing Gu Chenan leave, Li Rufeng's expression suddenly turned arrogant as he pointed at Gu Chenan's car a few hundred meters away and cursed, "Gu Chenan, where do you think you're going? The Li Family's forces are about to arrive, you've got the guts then stand there!"
After cursing for a while, though Gu Chenan was too far away to hear any of it.
Only after Gu Chenan's car disappeared into the flow of traffic did Li Rufeng turn back to address the onlookers, "Humph, for offending the Li Family, I'll make you understand the meaning of regret!"
"Though the Li Family is not at its peak, we're not to be bullied by some Donghai person like you!"
As he said this, he raised his head proudly to the onlookers, "Watch as I drive that coward Gu Chenan out of Suhang!"
His words did convince some of the onlookers.
"Damn, so Young Master Gu has made a deadly enemy of the Li Family!"
"Seems like it, though the Li Family has declined, they still have many skilled in the ancient martial arts!"
"Sheesh, Young Master Gu should be fine though, doesn't he have the backing of the Xiao Family? With the Xiao Family protecting him, the Li Family may not dare touch Young Master Gu."
"The Li Family has many connections in the ancient martial arts circle, plus most in Suhang's circle have ties to the Li Family. This matter may not be so simple!"
"Who knows, but this is likely to become big news in Suhang!"
...
"You're just letting them go?" Hoshino Kannon turned to Gu Chenan in the car.
Gu Chenan shook his head angrily, "What else could I do with so many people there? Kill them openly?"
Hoshino Kannon nodded.
"Oh right, Black Owl hasn't called you these past few days, has he?" Gu Chenan asked.
"You mean..." Hoshino Kannon immediately understood.
"Yeah." Gu Chenan nodded, "Just tell Black Owl that it was the Suhang Li Family who secretly killed Gong Fei, let them wipe out the entire Li Family. That'll put an end to this once and for all."
"Hehehe." Hoshino Kannon covered her mouth as she laughed, "You used to call me the twisted one, but you can be just as warped when you get going."
Gu Chenan shrugged, "Actually, I'm a good person."
"Yeah right." Hoshino Kannon made a face.
It was at this moment that Hoshino Kannon's phone rang.
Seeing the number, Hoshino Kannon gestured for Gu Chenan to be quiet, then answered and put it on speakerphone.
"Miss Hoshino, how is the investigation into Mr. Gong's disappearance going?" A cool female voice came through the phone.
"I've found out how Mr. Gong went missing." Hoshino Kannon said.
"Oh, do tell." The woman on the other end sounded pleased and quickly asked.
Hoshino Kannon took a breath, "The Suhang Li Family."
"Good, understood." The woman nodded, then asked again, "Miss Hoshino, do you have any evidence?"
"Don't you trust me?"
"I do, the Organization has unconditional trust in any one of The Twelve Owls. After all, you've made great contributions to the Organization to become part of The Twelve Owls. The Organization sees your loyalty clearly." The woman explained at length, worried Hoshino Kannon might misunderstand.
Hoshino Kannon nodded lightly, "Since you trust me, then quickly send people over. I alone will wipe out the entire Li Family."
"Understood."
Just as Hoshino Kannon was about to hang up, the woman added, "Miss Hoshino, you should return to the Organization."
Hoshino Kannon was taken aback, "What...what for?"
The woman laughed lightly, "The man Lin Yu you recommended to the Organization is about to take Mr. Gong's place as one of The Twelve Owls."
"Ah?"
Hoshino Kannon's expression froze as she turned to look at the similarly stunned Gu Chenan.
[What...Lin Yu is going to become one of The Twelve Owls? Isn't this a bit too fast???]

] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
