“You… You…”
Xu Zhaoyang, Zhou Jie, Wang Miao, and the others were stunned. They turned their heads slowly, with their eyes landing on Lin Yu.
Wang Miao, Li Hui, and the girls had their mouths open in an ‘O’ shape, hanging open wide enough to stuff eggs into them.
It was undoubtedly Lin Yu who had struck just now.
He was already digging for his Piston Gauntlet when he saw the skinny middle-aged man running toward them. Although the man eventually rubbed shoulders with them, he ended up coming back toward the group before Lin Yu could pull out his gauntlet.
He threw his punch through the gauntlet while his hand was still in the backpack.
“What, you have superpowers now and I can’t have some hack tech?”
Lin Yu said sarcastically after seeing how Xu Zhaoyang and the others were staring at him.
“F*ck!”
Zhou Jie, Feng Hai, and the others finally snapped out of it and began talking one after another, “Third Brother, didn’t you say that this thing can’t be used for assault?”
“Didn’t you say that it cannot be used for combat?”
As they talked, they turned around to find the skinny middle-aged man on the ground, still groaning in pain.
How could the gauntlet not be used for combat when one punch sent someone flying like that?
1“I upgraded the gauntlet again after moving home.”
Lin Yu smiled and said, “Let’s go, I don’t wanna go to the police station.”
The group could hear deafening police sirens. It seemed like the police were near the street corner.
At that moment, they understood why the skinny middle-aged man ran back. Law enforcement officers were still a big enough threat for men like him. The group felt guilty as well and began running.
“F*ck, master! Don’t run!”
“Masters! Please take me in as a student!!”
“Coach, I want to learn how to make a mecha!”
1Lin Yu and the group ran as the crowd started clamoring.
There were already quite a few people who were tailing Xu Zhaoyang and the group and after the commotion with the guards and the skinny middle-aged man, the crowd grew bigger.
“What’s happening today? There’s a Shaolin master and an Exo suit arm? Is this still the world I know?”
“Man, that punch was too awesome, did you take a close photo of that exo suit arm? Show it to me.”
1“This must be the world’s saddest thief. After suffering a kick from a Shaolin master, he had to take a punch from a hack-tech Exo suit arm.”
“Haha, I’ve heard of thieves who bumped into a martial arts school headmaster and a camping troop. If there was a list of thieves with the worst luck, these people would definitely be in the top three.”
The crowd moved slowly and could not catch up with Lin Yu and his group. Some of the spectators decided against following the group, either in shock or doubting their realities.
The scene was still pretty crowded after Lin Yu and the group left. No matter whether they knew each other or not, they all still chatted excitedly about the incident. This was a school area after all and was filled with young people. They all became unexpectedly friendly with each other while talking about the incident.
“You guys might not believe it…but that guy’s Exo suit gauntlet seems familiar.”
A fatty in glasses with slow reflexes snapped out of what was happening and put down his phone.
1“He seems familiar? Have you met him? Or do you know him?”
Although his voice was weak, the people around him heard what he said and surrounded him in excitement as he became the center of the crowd.
…
“Phew~ Phew~”
The group finally stopped to breathe after running into their quiet college. They began panting while sitting on the ground. The girls sat on the edge of the flowerbed instead, in consideration of their image.
“Is this the Exo suit?”
After resting for some time, Zhao Xiaolu curiously looked at Lin Yu’s backpack on the ground.
Lin Yu, who had been panting lazily, started getting nervous after realizing that the academic genius was staring at him.
He did not pay much attention to Zhao Xiaolu in the encounter just now but remembered that she was quite calm amidst it all. She was the only one who did not scream while Liu Xin, Wang Miao, and the rest of the girls did.
On top of that, Lin Yu was unsure if he could defend himself after experiencing the extent of her intelligence earlier tonight.
Thankfully, before Lin Yu could say anything, Xu Zhaoyang and the guys began explaining the situation in excitement.
“Didn’t we say that Lin was an uploader on B site? This is the latest material for his video, but it wasn’t as strong as it is now.”
“Speaking of which, Third Brother, where did you learn that kind of black tech from? If I remember correctly, it didn’t have the ability to punch before this, did it?”
The guys began talking about Lin Yu’s ‘glorious’ history as if they had anything to do with it.
“This is not black tech, this is just some ordinary pneumatic structure.”
Lin Yu snapped out of it and said helplessly, “Truth be told, this is hard to find locally. There are many bloggers abroad who make simple Exo suits but since things have been chaotic recently and both Second and Fifth Brothers have been peddling conspiracy theories, I felt a little unsafe. That is why I went home and made something for self-defense.”
“Pfft, so you made this thing because you’re weak?”
Zhou Jie could not help but laugh.
Xu Zhaoyang put his arm around Lin Yu’s shoulders and said, “I think Third Brother could develop himself in this area. Who knows? He could be a real-life Iron Man.”
“I am interested in this and have been learning mecha design by myself.”
Lin Yu nodded and glanced at Zhao Xiaolu. “I was asking for tips from the academic genius today too.”
“Are you sure you were asking for tips and not thinking of anything else?”
After insulting each other jokingly, the girls asked for Lin Yu’s B site account and watched his videos for some time, dropping the topic.
The group was pretty tired after the two scary incidents, so Xu Zhaoyang and the guys walked Liu Xin and the girls back to their dorm before heading back to the male dorm.
Lin Yu was just using going home as an excuse when he said he wanted to carry his backpack with him as he was also anxious as well. Lin Yu ended up walking back to the dorm with Xu Zhaoyang and the guys thanks to his two-year-long habit.
“Third Brother, whatever that happened just now… Thank you.”
Xu Zhaoyang whispered with his arm over Lin Yu’s shoulders on the way back to the dorm.
Lin Yu downplayed it. He smiled and said, “Why are you thanking me? If I didn’t do anything. Should I have waited until we were beaten up?”
Xu Zhaoyang was at a loss for words. He patted Lin Yu’s shoulders and dropped it.
The guys finally returned to their dorm right before it closed. The excitement faded, and they were fatigued, all falling asleep quickly thanks to the alcohol they had as well.
“You… You…”
