Chapter 180 Convenience Store
"Huh? I think I'm hallucinating. You want me to help you beat someone up?" Zheng Xiuheng felt that it was a bit unscientific. The girl who had just left angrily came back in less than a minute and asked if he could help her beat someone up. This was too speechless.
"Junior Sister Zhiyan!"
Zheng Xiuheng was slightly startled, and his attention was focused on the word "junior sister".
When Park Ji-yeon heard the voice behind her, her body froze and she quickly ran behind Zheng Xiuheng. In her opinion, Zheng Xiuheng was a policeman and a nice person, but he didn't seem to be very friendly to the people in Qingsong Pavilion.
Park Ji-yeon is not the type of person who would get hung up on one thing, otherwise she wouldn't have run away from home at that time. It's just that she couldn't handle some things maturely.
"His name is Kim Do-won. He is Kim Sung-chi's younger brother and the current deputy owner. Policeman, although fighting is wrong, if they are really bad guys, then this should be okay, right? Just like policeman, you dealt with that bad guy just now!" Park Ji-yeon said in a low voice while standing behind Zheng Xiuheng, looking at Kim Do-won and others with disgust.
In fact, Park Ji-yeon used to like these senior brothers very much. There were not many girls in the dojo, only two or three, and they were all young, so these brothers took good care of them, just like their own brothers. For Park Ji-yeon, who was still a child, she used to treat Kim Do-won and others as family members.
But the reality is that they are not real family after all. When Park Ji-yong's leg was broken by Kim Sung-chi and the dojo was forcibly bought away, Park Ji-yeon felt betrayed by her relatives and hated these former senior brothers in her heart.
I really hate them, and I'm not just saying it. Although these people contributed to my moving to Seoul and my father's change of attitude, Park Ji-yeon is not so heartless. Instead, seeing these people so angry that they ran to the policeman in a fit of anger, Park Ji-yeon also vaguely realized that these people might really be bad guys.
But Park Ji-yeon is not stupid, so she cleverly told Zheng Xiuheng about the leader of the opposing team.
Zheng Xiuheng's expression became extremely interesting. Not only because of Park Ji-yeon's words, but also because of his memory.
"Hello, have we met somewhere before?" Kim Do-won walked up , wearing a loose Korean dress, a short sword on his waist, and a black hat in his hand. Although this kind of loose Korean dress would be ugly if it was not tightened at the waist, it looked very imposing on Kim Do-won.
Originally, Kim Do-won wanted to say a few words to Park Ji-yeon, but when the memory of this man appeared in his mind for a moment, he immediately stopped and asked curiously.
Restoring the surprise on his face, Zheng Xiuheng asked calmly: "I have the same feeling, maybe we have met somewhere before!"
"Yeah?"
"Of course, like convenience stores!"
One day in late November, in a convenience store.
"Bang!"
"Sorry, are you okay?" Zheng Xiuheng asked calmly as he looked at the man who walked out from between two rows of shelves and bumped into him and sat down on the ground.
The man sitting on the floor in front of him had short hair, was wearing a black leather jacket, had a very strong body, and looked tough and handsome. Zheng Xiuheng thought he had a good temperament and appearance.
"It's okay, it's okay, buddy. I practice Taekwondo and I think I'm in pretty good shape, but your body is too strong, like a bull."
Zheng Xiuheng shrugged and said with a smile: "Yeah, I work so hard and still can't eat enough!"
After saying that, Zheng Xiuheng pulled the man up, and then walked past the man with a smile. The man didn't say anything more, but paid the bill and left directly.
About five minutes later, Zheng Xiuheng came to the entrance of the alley on the right with his bag in hand. Turning the corner to the right, Zheng Xiuheng looked at the man lying in a pool of blood with his eyes shaking... He felt like it was just a dream.
Then ...Li Xiaole died.
"convenience store?"
"Convenience...Ah , it's you, the strong man!" Jin Daoyuan said with a smile, and directly gave Zheng Xiuheng a nickname.
Zheng Xiuheng was extremely uneasy at the moment. The appearance of Jin Daoyuan no longer needed any proof. This matter was indeed done by Qingsong Pavilion.
Zheng Xiuheng ignored him and turned to Park Ji-yeon and asked, "Who do you want to punish?"
Park Ji-yeon's eyes lit up, and without hesitation, she said directly: "He and the fat guy, together!"
"Junior sister, I am not fat with this little bit of flesh!" The fat man following Kim Do Won replied with a sad face, but Park Ji Yeon had completely ignored them.
"Ha, you don't want to fight?" Kim Do Won widened his eyes, a little confused about the guy in front of him, and what was his relationship with Park Ji Yeon, or maybe he was from Qing Tao Pavilion, otherwise why would they come out together? Based on his understanding over the years, Kim Do Won was sure that the guy in front of him was not a relative or something.
"Of course not!"
"That's good, fighting here..."
"Bang!"
Zheng Xiuheng suddenly raised his foot and kicked Jin Daoyuan to the ground. Looking at the fat man who was stunned and pounced on him, Zheng Xiuheng easily grabbed his fist and tripped him with his left foot. The guy flew out and fell heavily to the ground, splashing a lot of dust.
"Let's go!"
Zheng Xiuheng turned around and pulled Park Ji-yeon out to avoid being photographed by the tour group behind. As for the two people on the ground, he didn't bother to care. Zheng Xiuheng was very satisfied with Kim Do-won's expression, so he didn't stay and pulled Park Ji-yeon out. As for the other people in Qingsong Pavilion, they had already gone to Badalmen. Only Kim Do-won and the fat man followed.
Although he wanted to beat this guy into a pulp, this was all Zheng Xiuheng could do in broad daylight. Now that everything was confirmed, Zheng Xiuheng would completely resolve the matter tonight, and the rest would not be complicated, and there would only be one target left.
Most of the area in Hwaseong is covered with green vegetation. In fact, there are not many ancient buildings. For example, the city wall next to a certain star gate has long been demolished to build residential buildings, leaving only one city gate, but this one is relatively well preserved. After leaving the courtyard of Huaning Palace, Zheng Xiuheng pulled Park Ji-yeon and ran a few steps, then simply lifted her up with one hand and ran quickly forward on the path between two lawns.
Although he was not afraid of them, Zheng Xiuheng did not want to become an Internet celebrity or get in trouble with the police. He just couldn't help himself. If Zheng Xiuheng and Jin Daoyuan had not met in the supermarket before, and it was less than five minutes before Li Xiaole's death, he would definitely suspect that he was the one who did it. He might not have been able to hold back.
Occasionally, two or three tourists can be seen on this path, and they all look puzzled at Zheng Xiuheng's running.
After running about a hundred meters, Zheng Xiuheng slowed down and put Park Ji-yeon down.
"Mr. Policeman, you are so violent!" Park Ji-yeon covered her ribs that were pinched by Zheng Xiuheng's arm and started rubbing them. Her little face was flushed, but it was obviously not because of shyness, but a little excitement .
Zheng Xiuheng took a deep breath, calmed down his emotions, and then replied: "It's okay. Now that I helped you beat him up, shouldn't you do me a favor as well?"
"Ah? I, what can I do to help you?" Park Ji-yeon asked in surprise. She was surprised that the policeman actually hit someone, but she was also very excited. To be honest, after knowing that her father's leg was broken by Jin Chengchi and the family's gym was forcibly bought, Park Ji-yeon was furious. Unfortunately, she couldn't beat them, so she could only stay at home in frustration. Later, she had to move to Seoul. For Park Ji-yeon, this was almost a family feud and national hatred.
Seeing Kim Do-won and the fat man being dealt with so easily by the policeman, Park Ji-yeon's resentment towards them finally dissipated a little.
"Let's talk while we walk. Mainly, I want you to tell me something about Jin Chengchi and others in Qingsong Pavilion. I believe you should be familiar with them, right?"
After meeting Kim Do-won, Zheng Xiuheng changed his mind slightly. The girl next to him could still provide him with a lot of information.
Park Ji-yeon was stunned for a moment, then nodded immediately, not at all as conflicted as her father. In fact, if Kim Sung-chi had only defeated Park Ji-yong, or even broken his leg, Park Ji-yeon could have understood it as an accidental injury during the competition.
But after that, the gym in her home became someone else's, and she had to move out of Suwon City. This was the root of Park Ji-yeon's anger. She felt like she was deceived. She no longer had any good feelings for these brothers who had been so nice to her before, as if everything was fake. It was like the policeman's attitude towards them proved that they were indeed not good people.
So, when asked by Zheng Xiuheng, Park Ji-yeon told him everything she knew.
However, while collecting information, Zheng Xiuheng unexpectedly discovered that this girl seemed to have the potential to be a chatterbox, and at the same time, she was a bit like Kim Hyun-ah, who couldn't stop talking once she started. But what Zheng Xiuheng didn't understand was that Kim Hyun-ah's father completely ignored her and even kicked her out of the house.
But Park Ji-yeon's family looks good. This is what Zheng Xiuheng saw in the morning. Can a warm and complete family also make people feel lonely and isolated?
Zheng Xiuheng didn't quite understand and could only think that he was overthinking. Perhaps this girl was just a dull person and also had tuberculosis.
"It seems that Kim Sung Chi and Kim Do Won were adopted by my father when they were seven years old, and have lived in the dojo ever since. Kim Sung Chi is very powerful. He has always won first place in all the competitions he has participated in since he was thirteen years old. If it weren't for the age limit, he couldn't apply for a higher rank. He might be able to reach the ninth rank now. If you really want to talk about his strength, I'm not sure. Anyway, my father said that he is already at the level of a national representative, and he is much better than that. He also asked me to learn more from him... Well, anyway, he is very powerful!"
"Many of them dropped out of school after graduating from high school, and then basically worked in the gym, and occasionally did some part-time jobs around the area. Normally, there didn't seem to be anything strange about them. All I know is..."
"Gu!"
The sudden sound attracted Zheng Xiuheng's attention. He lowered his head to look at Park Ji-yeon's belly and red face. Zheng Xiuheng smiled and said, "You haven't had lunch yet?"
Park Ji-yeon nodded awkwardly, her face blushing. The sound was too loud, it was really embarrassing.
