254: Chapter 254: Repairing (Additional chapter for alliance leader Feng Zhi Ye) (Fifth Release) 254: Chapter 254: Repairing (Additional chapter for alliance leader Feng Zhi Ye) (Fifth Release) Hai Lan struggled to her feet and expressed her gratitude towards Mia.
âThank you.â
âDonât mention it.
Just lie down and recuperate.â
Mia waved her hand, signaling Hai Lan not to be so formal.
At that moment, a female waitress walked up to the door and knocked.
Dong dong~
Mia turned her head and asked the waitress,
âWhatâs the matter?â
âThe thing is, a lot of soldiers have arrived at the hotel entrance, claiming weâre harboring a thief and demanding that we hand them over.â
The waitress spoke respectfully.
Su Ming turned his head to look at Catherine, who was shaking her head frantically, her eyes red as she spoke,
âI swear, I only stole once.â
âYou donât need to look at her anymore.
Theyâre just looking for trouble.
Su Ming, come with me.â
Mia said irritably.
âOkay!â
Su Ming nodded and followed Mia out.
Rhein and the others followed suit.
âŠ
At the grand entrance of Dragon Court Interstellar Hotel,
a middle-aged man, dressed in a captainâs uniform and corpulent, his face covered in horizontal flesh, was negotiating with the security captain of the hotel, accompanied by fifty soldiers in Second Generation Exoskeleton Armor.
âWeâre here to enforce the law by arresting a criminal; we request that your hotel expel the offenders.â
âThatâs right, they stole our property, and we have the evidence.â
Zhan Wei and others, holding a photograph, joined in with overbearing confidence.
The photo clearly showed Catherine, clutching a wallet and frantically running away.
Zhan Wei and his group had a simple plan; since they couldnât handle Su Ming and his group directly, they decided to have the Federation Government intervene, using the system against the system.
The security captain of Dragon Court Interstellar Hotel, undaunted and confident, replied,
âLord Dick, Iâve already notified the relevant personnel.
You can talk to the parties involved, but weâre not responsible for anything else.â
âAlright, Iâll just wait then.â
Dick responded with a cheerful smile.
Although the security captain held no real power, Dick represented the Imperial Court Academy, and threatening wasnât really effective.
Just then, Mia came out with her group and said,
âWhoâs trying to arrest someone?â
Upon seeing Mia, Dickâs eyes narrowed into a gleaming smile as he briskly approached her.
âIsnât this Lady Mia?
What a coincidence to run into you here.â
âWho do I think it is?
Itâs you, boy.
Why are you arresting someone?â
Mia looked at Dick, obviously annoyed.
âYes, Lady Mia.
Students from your Imperial Court Academy are harboring a criminal, and Iâve come specially to make the arrest.â
âGet lost.
You think I donât know about your dirty dealings?
And youâve got the guts to target my students?â
Mia cursed angrily.
âUh, are they your students, Lady Mia?â
Dick was taken aback.
âThatâs right, and I havenât even started with you yet, but you dared to come to me first!
Iâm asking you, did you give them the nerve to bully my students?â
Mia retorted, questioning Dick.
Hearing this, Dickâs face twitched as he turned to Zhan Wei and his group, furiously erupting,
âYouâve got a lot of nerve!
How dare you play the victim and bully Lady Miaâs studentsâbeat them up!â
âLord Dick, please hear us out.â
Zhan Wei and his companions were stunned.
But before they could finish speaking, Dickâs subordinates rushed in, throwing punches at Zhan Wei and his group.
Ouch!
One by one, Zhan Wei and his group were knocked to the ground.
The soldiers didnât relent, launching harsh punches and kicks at them relentlessly.
One soldier lifted his foot and stomped on Zhan Weiâs left arm!
Crack!
A crisp sound of breaking bone immediately followed.
âAah~â
Zhan Wei let out a painful scream.
Su Ming and the others were also very surprised by this scene.
They had not expected this person named Dick to be so decisive and to act so harshly.
Dick smiled ingratiatingly and said to Mia,
âMia, are you satisfied now?â
âItâs barely passable, just get out of here and donât bother me.â
Mia waved her hand, speaking impatiently.
âAlright, right away.â
Captain Dick waved his hand, immediately ordering his subordinates to take Zhan Wei and the others away.
Once Dick and his group had left, Rhein and the others excitedly said to Mia,
âTeacher, didnât expect you to be so badass, that was awesome!â
âOf course, havenât you heard the saying?
Once you graduate and enter society, youâll find that your teacher could be the most badass person youâll ever meet in your life!â
Mia said proudly.
âGeez, teacher, youâre laying it on a bit thick.â
Rhein and the others joked.
âEnough with the bullshit, head back to the hotel and donât wander around lately.â
Mia told Rhein and the others.
âOkay!â
Rhein and the others nodded and agreed.
On the other side, Zhan Wei was clutching his arm, enduring the pain as he followed next to Captain Dick.
Now, the sycophantic smile had vanished from Dickâs face, replaced by a menacing expression.
âCaptain Dick, are we just going to let this slide?
That thing?â
âShut up!â
Captain Dick snapped viciously.
Zhan Wei and the others shivered suddenly, promptly shutting their mouths.
âGo back and tell young master that he has to back off!
And you bunch of lackeys, Iâm warning youâdonât go causing them trouble again.
If you stir up more issues, Iâll slaughter you all!â
Dick said with a deadly intent, genuinely ready to kill Zhan Wei and the others.
These idiots had stirred trouble with the Imperial Court Academyâfine, they could still reason with the Imperial Court Academy, but they hadnât expected to provoke Mia.
Those who guarded the borders, how many of them were clean?
Provoking Mia meant they were all done for!
âYes, yes.â
Zhan Wei, feeling the threat of death, replied tremblingly.
âGet lost!â
Dick cursed furiously as he led his men away.
In the hotel lobby, Mia and Su Ming walked toward the elevator while she spoke to him.
âTomorrow, you come with me to the City Lord Mansion.â
âAh?
What for?â
Su Ming asked, slightly surprised.
âWhat else?
To get some work done, and to process their mother and daughterâs formalities while weâre at it.
You donât think that people from the Neutral Country in Black Flame Star can just leave here, do you?â
âYou mean they came here and now canât leave?â
âObviously!
Until every last drop of value is squeezed out of them, donât even think about letting them go.
And you must have bought quite a lot of good stuff, right?
Plus, that mother and daughter must have given you quite a benefit, right?â
Mia looked at Su Ming with a playful smile.
âI did buy quite a few things, but I didnât take advantage of them.â
Su Ming replied earnestly.
âStop pretending, thereâs no one else here.
We split it fifty-fifty.â
Miaâs eyes lit up as she spoke, convinced there were massive benefits involved to have them cornered outside the hotel.
âReally, there wasnât.â
Su Ming replied with a wry smile.
âThatâs really no fun, youâre just hogging it all!â
Mia looked at Su Ming with disdain.
âReally, would I take advantage of a crisis?â
Su Ming sighed as he spoke.
âThen I despise you even more.â
Seeing that Su Ming wasnât joking, Mia rolled her eyes.
Su Ming was speechless, he sighed deeplyâitâs really hard to do a good deed these days.
