Chapter 978 - 988: All a Misunderstanding (Part 1)
Chapter 978: Chapter 988: All a Misunderstanding (Part 1)
The whole table of dishes and that terrifying pot of rice have now been completely consumed.
Roughly ninety percent was eaten by Lin Xi, while Luo Susu and Jones only consumed about ten percent.
At this moment, Jones was dumbfounded.
When Lin Xi ate half, she was already in a state of unbelievable shock.
She hadn’t expected it, but it was all gone!
This is a bit scary, isn’t it!
She couldn’t help but secretly glanced at Lin Xi’s belly and found that it didn’t bulge at all, looking almost the same as before they started eating.
"What kind of stomach is this? A competitive eater?" She couldn’t help but wonder to herself.
The others around them and the waiters had also been watching the three of them all along.
After all, ordering so much food from the start attracted quite a few people’s attention, and of course, the key point was that two beautiful women were sitting there.
By now, everyone was gawking with wide-open mouths, all captivated by Lin Xi.
"Is this really a human?"
"Have you ever seen anyone eat like this?"
"Not even on TV shows, it’s like they haven’t eaten for ten days or half a month!"
"It’s like coming back from hell!"
Lin Xi grabbed two tissues and wiped his mouth and hands, once done, to be honest, it really wasn’t much.
He then looked at the two shocked women and also noticed the gazes from nearby others.
He didn’t pay it any mind at all.
All he could say was that these people were simply making a fuss over nothing, lacking a bit of insight.
"Dee~woo~~dee~woo~~dee~woo~~"
Suddenly, the sound of police cars came from outside, and almost everyone in the restaurant saw four or five police cars roaring by and stopping not far from them.
It seemed like it was at a foreign currency exchange institution.
The next moment, at least more than a dozen armed police officers swiftly exited from the cars and aimed their guns at a few people in front.
"Hey, aren’t those people the security guards from before?" Lin Xi was taken aback.
Luo Susu was also surprised, apparently she had noticed it too.
Jones, however, didn’t know what was happening, but seeing the two behave this way, she couldn’t help but ask, "Do you know what’s happening?"
Luo Susu shook her head, "I don’t know what’s going on!"
"But we know those people surrounded by the police!"
"You know them?" A hint of surprise crossed Jones’s face.
To know that those surrounded by a group of police with guns basically assures they are bad people or troublemakers.
Such people, according to her principles, are not to be interacted with.
"What’s going on?" she asked Luo Susu, worried that her students might get involved in the incident.
Luo Susu, knowing Jones’s concern, briefly explained the earlier situation to her.
After hearing this, a hint of anger crossed Jones’s face.
Is even the committee of the piano world so corrupt now?
But she immediately thought, "Are you saying Lin Xi gave them a large sum of yen?"
Luo Susu nodded.
"Then that’s bad, I bet it’s a misunderstanding!" Jones looked worried, "However, carrying so much money to London is a rather troublesome matter!"
She guessed the outside incident was likely related to the yen.
But before she could say anything, they heard Lin Xi say, "Let’s go out and see!"
The two women hesitated slightly but agreed.
Some things can’t be avoided!
Since it can’t be avoided, it’s better to face it head on.
After Lin Xi paid the bill, he took the two women towards the currency exchange institution surrounded by police.
In fact, with such a big incident and the police being so stern, hardly anyone dared to watch up close, everyone kept their distance and watched from afar.
After all, should a gun accidentally go off, one might get shot.
Even if it’s not a vital part, it would still hurt!
Moreover, you wouldn’t get any compensation, so why let curiosity lead you there?
There’s a saying, don’t seek death and you won’t die!
"Are we really going over there?" Luo Susu expressed concern.
Jones also did, she said, "We can see clearly from here, there’s no need to go so close."
The two looked at a spot not far from the police, where three or four fearless people were standing.
And Lin Xi intended to go there.
"It’s fine, just follow me!" Lin Xi said.
He then proceeded to walk over there.
Luo Susu and Jones exchanged a glance, a touch of helplessness and complaint in their eyes, but they still followed Lin Xi.
Once the three approached, the four initially standing there, appeared more like foreigners with sinister looks, resembling street thugs.
Seeing the three approaching, the undisguised desire in their eyes was blatant, seemingly wishing to strip Jones and Luo Susu clean.
The two women slightly hid behind Lin Xi, inherently repulsed by these kinds of people.
Lin Xi noticed this situation, shifted his gaze from the police, looked at the four, and shouted lowly, "Scram!"
With four distinct "bang!" sounds, the four sat down on the ground as Lin Xi’s low shout resonated.
Even one of them wet their pants.
Because under Lin Xi’s low shout, they suddenly felt a suffocating sense of despair and killing intent.
That kind of killing intent was something they had never seen in their lifetime.
The next moment, they scrambled to flee while shouting in terror.
If they didn’t run, they felt they might die!
Luo Susu, "..."
Jones, "..."
Even the police officers shifted their attention to this side.
As did the four security guards surrounded by police who also looked over.
And the distant onlookers also focused their attention on Lin Xi’s side.
Almost everyone felt baffled, "What’s going on?"
"Did those four see ghosts?"
"Were they that scared?"
To know, there are so many people here, including the police!
Even if there are ghosts, they wouldn’t dare appear, right!
Watching for a while, finding nothing amiss, they could only assume those four were just acting irrationally!
However, the four security guards seemed to transition from recent laughter to being suddenly agitated.
Everyone then saw them gesturing wildly towards Lin Xi and the group, shouting excitedly, "It’s them, it’s them, it’s them!"
But the surrounding police officers immediately tensed, thinking they might retaliate, and shouted sternly, "Shut up, stay still, or don’t blame us for shooting!"
Immediately, the four burly security guards raised their hands, showing they were unarmed and not resisting.
They kept saying, "It’s all a misunderstanding!"
"Please don’t open fire, don’t let the guns go off!"
If indeed an accidental discharge occurred, they would all definitely wish they were dead.
After all, they had just got the money, hadn’t enjoyed it, and might be shot, this would certainly be a very sad affair.
Luckily, this misunderstanding could be resolved.
Their eyes were full of expectation, looking at Lin Xi’s group.
