Future News: My Phone Mutated Novel - Chapter 7

This series of actions seemed lengthy, but in reality, they were all completed in an instant.

Even Lin Bai himself found it hard to believe.

Recalling the brief exchange just now, Lin Bai realized that not only could he slow down his opponent’s actions, but he could even predict his opponent’s attack moves in advance.

Moreover, the dodging and counterattacking movements that he made seemed to be instinctive ad involuntary.

He didn’t even need to think about how to deal with it, and his body directly reacted to the danger.

It seemed that this should be the effect of the ‘God-Level Combat Skill’ that the system rewarded him with.

In the past, Lin Bai had only heard that combat experts could form muscle memories that allow them to predict and respond to the enemy’s attack moves without thinking.

However, those were abilities that required a long period of repeated practice and a large amount of experience to possess.

As a combat newbie, it was Lin Bai’s first time fighting with someone but he was already able to grasp such an ability. It was enough to show just how heaven-defying the ‘Divine Combat Technique’ that the system rewarded was.

The two kidnappers were almost dumbfounded. They could not understand at all why they could lose so completely in the blink of an eye even though they were fighting two against one.

They did not even know how Lin Bai had done all this.

The kidnapper who had his arm broken was so shocked that he even forgot the pain.

After a few seconds, he finally realized and started to scream.

The other one was not much better than him.

Seeing Lin Bai put the dagger on his neck, he could not even speak clearly.

“Don’t… Don’t use the knife…”

“Can we talk this out?”

The other robber begged for mercy with a sobbing tone.

As he spoke, he felt a tingling pain on the skin on his neck, and something seemed to be dripping down.

He thought it was sweat, so he raised his trembling hand to wipe it, but the pain made him suck in a breath of cold air.

When he looked closely, his hand was covered in blood.

He was so scared that his legs went soft and he immediately knelt on the ground.

“Boss! I know I’m wrong! Please let me go!”

He begged for mercy with tears in his eyes.

The fear of dying had caused a huge psychological trauma to him.

Lin Bai sneered. ‘Now he knows to beg for mercy. What did he do in the past?’

‘If he’s afraid of being beaten and killed, he shouldn’t have tried to kidnap her in the first place!’

‘Do you regret it now?’

‘It’s too late!’

Lin Bai didn’t hold back at all and directly kicked the other party’s heart, sending him flying four to five meters away.

Then, he raised his hand to point at Yu Jinmo and said coldly.

“The next time you dare to harbor designs on my woman, I’ll take your life, dog!”

The kidnapper who almost had his neck cut was so scared that he kowtowed repeatedly.

“I won’t dare to do it anymore! I won’t do it again!”

“You know better.”

The kidnapper secretly heaved a sigh of relief, thinking that he had finally escaped a calamity.

To his surprise, the next second, Lin Bai took out his cell phone and called the police.

“Hello, is that the police? Someone wants to kidnap my girlfriend, come quickly.”

When the kidnapper heard Lin Bai say this, he was so scared that he almost cried. He kept bowing to him.

Lin Bai ignored him and continued to explain the situation over the phone.

“There are four kidnappers, three men and one woman.”

“I’ve already subdued the three men. Yes, yes, yes, there’s basically no danger. You just need to send a police car to pick them up.”

“That female kidnapper…”

As he said that, Lin Bai glanced at Zhang Li who was at the side.

Zhang Li was so scared that her face turned pale and she almost knelt down to Lin Bai.

“It’s a misunderstanding, it’s all a misunderstanding…”

She tried to explain herself.

However, the words she said were so unconvincing and powerless that she didn’t even believe herself.

Lin Bai didn’t even bother to refute her. He just glared at Zhang Li and she instantly didn’t dare to make a sound.

Lin Bai continued, “I don’t like hitting women. She’s fine. But she can’t escape either. Just come quickly.”

“The address is 837 Xianglin Street, the back door of Jinhui KTV.”

…

After Lin Bai finished speaking, he hung up the phone. Zhang Li decided to be thick-skinned and tried to plead for mercy for herself.

She said, “I really only made a mistake, I didn’t want to hurt Jinmo!”

“I’m just too poor, I just wanted to ask Jinmo’s father for some money, I really don’t have any bad intentions.”

“I know I’m wrong. Please let me go, okay?”

“My family has been poor since I was young. It’s not easy for my parents to save money to send me to school!”

“If I have a criminal record, the rest of my life will be ruined! My parents will have sent me to college for nothing!”

Lin Bai said coldly, “Since you know that it’s not easy for your parents, you should work harder to improve your competitiveness instead of spending your days in the nightclub and thinking about ways to get money.”

“When it’s time to bear the consequences, you pretend to be pitiful again.”

“What you’ve done is disgusting.”

“It’s such a tragedy that your parents raised a daughter like you!”

Zhang Li never expected that her always-effective method of acting pitiful would be met with a setback by Lin Bai.

She held back her tears pitifully and looked at Yu Jinmo.

“Jinmo…”

After Yu Jinmo had gone through such a series of torment and shock, he had long since woken up.

Now that he heard Zhang Li call him that, Yu Jinmo only felt extremely disgusted.

She turned her face to the side and said coldly, “I don’t know you.”

She had indeed treated Zhang Li as her best friend.

However, when she knew that Zhang Li had urged others to kidnap her, she could no longer continue to treat her as her best friend.

Even the usually soft-hearted and kind-hearted Yu Jimo had become so cold.

Zhang Li had to accept the reality that she was really hopeless.

With Yu Jimo’s background, all of them would definitely go to jail if the kidnapping matter was investigated especially since she was the one who started it.

She was also the one who helped the kidnappers set up a bridge.

It was only after thinking for a while that she could predict that her sentence would definitely not end.

Zhang Li knew that it was useless to beg for mercy, so she did not say anything more and just sat in the corner sullenly.

However, there was not a hint of regret or guilt in her expression. There was only hatred that could not be hidden.

Yu Jinmo could feel that Zhang Li’s gaze had been fixed on her.

This made her feel very uncomfortable.

However, she did not want to pay attention to it.

Reason being she believed that Zhang Li would definitely go to jail and her father would never let Zhang Li have the chance to be released again.

Yu Jinmo did not want to waste too much emotion on a stranger whom she was destined to never see again.

She deliberately talked to Lin Bai to distract herself from the venomous gaze behind her.

She asked Lin Bai, “Did you learn martial arts in elementary school? Why are you so good at fighting?”

“Before I could even see how you attacked, you already knocked everyone down. That’s amazing!”
