171 Greenvalley is Under Attack

The workers who were listening to the speech nodded in agreement at the girl who had come from nowhere. But what the girl said was necessarily worth listening to.

Emma put on a serious face, “If you in some way need the funds to do it, then I can give it to you on the condition that you will lead the victims to voice this injustice. I do feel hurt that my uncle fell ill from being a victim of fraud, just like you. It’s time for you to move, so the criminals don’t keep making you their cash cow.” Emma continued.

“She’s right. We can’t just sit around being fooled like this. We must unite to fight them!” One of the men said.

Emma nodded firmly then glanced left and right to make sure the situation in the factory cafeteria was safe, “I know it’s not much, but maybe you gentlemen would need this,” she said quietly as she opened her sling bag and pulled a bunch of money out of it for her to hand out, “If the demonstration works, I’ll give you all more,”

The middle-aged men looked at each other with disdain before the man who had just spoken to Emma cleared his throat, “Actually, we don’t need the money just to do this because of course, it’s for our good too,” But both of his hands seemed to extend forward, “However, perhaps you are right that it would cost a little to prepare. Therefore, we were forced to take this one,”

Inside, Emma felt a little annoyed facing the group of men in front of her. But she still had a smile on, “I know. Don’t worry. I will give the rest when this demonstration is over. I hope you can do it for at least one to two weeks, every few days. I will double the extra if you can help me with that.”

“Sure, if you insist. But we do it because we feel this scam is very burdensome for all of us.” The man replied.

Emma nodded slightly, “I know,”

After that, Emma and Rachel met again when the break time for the two factory shifts was almost over. By sneaking, they managed to get out of the Chingsu District area without being caught by the guards.

.....





“Has the money run out?” Emma asked Rachel once they reached the big tree hiding their motorbike.

Rachel shook her head, “Some people refused the money. They said it really had to be done. And now they’ve got the courage,”

“Oh.. You’re so lucky. Everyone I met accepted the money with their hypocrisy. But I don’t regret it at all because that was our aim to bring money here. After this, we just have to monitor how the condition goes after the Creeper in Chingsu District and Greenvalley fell apart at the same time.” Emma said as she sat on the side of the tree with Rachel. They deliberately waited for the sky to get darker enough so that they would not be seen by the guards who might pass near the swamp. The reason was pulling back the motorbike in the snow was more difficult than moving it forward.

“I hope this all goes well,” Rachel muttered as she leaned the back of her head against the large wall that stretched behind their backs. It was cold there and the snow was still piling up on the ground, though not as thick as usual.

“I also hope so,” Emma replied. Then she remembered something, “Now, the last thing we have to do is find out where Lee Mu Fei kept all the employment contract files they were holding.”



Rachel nodded, “We have to get inside the base. Are you sure our bodies can get through the ventilation duct?”

“I’m pretty sure, Rachel. But I don’t know if there could be a passage that’s smaller that won’t allow our bodies to pass through.”

“If that’s the case, then we’ll be forced to go down and confront the Creeper,” Rachel replied lightly.

Emma looked at Rachel’s face from the side and smiled, “I can’t wait to fight together with you.”

“You’ve trained me well, Emma. You won’t be disappointed,” Rachel smiled.

“The first time I met Black was at Jardin University.” Said A man in a well-known branded coat.

Oscar immediately got up from his seat, “Are you sure it’s the same person?”

Eddy Norman nodded, “While doing Black Harvest Day, he beat me and all my men in a warehouse.” he answered by bowing his head.

“You too?!” Oscar’s eyes widened. The blood vessels in his eyes were getting wider.

Eddy nodded, “T-that’s true, Boss. He was very strong despite his small body. He came to save the losers of the campus that we were harvesting at that time.”

Oscar threw his back against the back of the chair with a surprised face and jaw clenched. Probably, Black was the same as a man named Calvin Lee who was jobless that he decided to become a superhero and troubles many people. “So, now Black is helping RJC?” he muttered to himself,

Tony Lin nodded. Now, the members who left on the same level were only him and Eddy Norman. Gaston had been kicked out of the Creeper because he was too troublesome due to the healing process that took too long. It only wasted the group’s money. “I’ve been looking for it. This is the only information I could get, Boss. That man is truly mysterious and undetectable.” the black-haired man explained.

“If someone like him were to join RJC, then we might die,” Oscar said without being able to cover his panicked face. Of course, it was because he couldn’t protect himself with his big stomach and powerless fists. He then looked at one of his assistants, “Has Afei given the injection money?”

The assistant shook his head slowly, “I’m sorry, Boss. The commander said that he would not give any injections. He also said that he would sell one of our branch headquarters if he couldn’t pay it to Black Hole this month.”

“What?! Are you crazy?!” Oscar held back his screams. Then he glanced at his two subordinates who led each branch group that he had spread to several locations.

Tony Lin and Eddy Norman were still looking down, but they secretly glanced at each other with meaningful gazes. If it was true that the supreme leader of the Creeper was to sell one of the branch bases, that would mean it was one of their bases. But that was not what the two men were particularly afraid of because for sure, the first to become the target was the motorcycle group that Gaston previously led, which was currently still in a state of bobbing because its leader had been kicked out of the Creeper.

In fact, the thing that made the two of them feel worried was the possibility that the Creeper led directly by Oscar Chopper would fall. If Creeper Greenvalley finally collapsed, that would mean the group they were leading now would also disappear. Plus, the fact of the economic crisis that suddenly hit the Creeper gave a harsh reality that their group was forced to save money and work even harder.

Suddenly, the door of the room occupied by the higher-ups was knocked loudly from outside. Oscar, Tony, and Eddy immediately turned toward the source of the voice. Even though they didn’t know what was to come, their instincts could immediately tell that something was wrong.

Sure enough, when Oscar told his assistant to come in before his hand even had touched the doorknob, it opened from the outside. It was against the rules of decency which should not be done in front of their boss. But it seemed that the man behind the door had been pushed to the point of breaking the rules.

A man with messy hair and a face full of sweat immediately stepped in and bowed respectfully, “Forgive my impudence, Boss! There is an attack by RJC men outside,” he said breathlessly.

“W-what?!” Oscar gasped and hurried over to the window which was covered with a maroon curtain. He roughly slid the curtains aside to look out the window which led directly to the road ahead. Behind him, Tony and Eddy followed.

It turned out a bunch of black motorbikes that were no longer being ridden by the riders were parked outside. The riders of the black horses had gotten off their motorbikes and were standing bravely.

“RJC! They’ve come for revenge! Call Afei! Call that bastard now!” Oscar exclaimed with a scarred face. Then he immediately ran towards his assistant who, with trembling hands, was looking for their commander’s contact on his phone. But it seemed that Oscar didn’t have much time left, so he snatched the man’s cellphone and put it to his ear.

“You!” He pointed to Tony and Eddy.

The two men who were still standing behind the window immediately turned to face their boss, “Yes, Boss!”

“Hurry up and face them! If those bastards reach my room, I’ll break your legs! QUICK!” He ordered in a loud voice that made a hoarse tone.

“O-ok, Boss!” Tony and Eddy answered together. Then they immediately left Oscar who was still waiting for Lee Mu Fei to pick up the phone.

Beads of sweat were gathering on Oscar’s forehead. The rest was running down his hairy back, “Hurry pick it up, Damn it!” he growled himself.

Suddenly, the dial tone that had been ringing was stopped, “Good evening, Boss.” A man answered.

Oscar knew it wasn’t Afei’s voice, but his assistant’s. Moreover, Afei never held a personal cell phone because he was an old-fashioned and stiff man. “Where’s Afei?! Give him your phone, you bastard! Hurry up!”

“Alright,” The man replied.

Oscar waited for Afei to take his call while he perched behind the window, watching the chaos below. It was seen that his men were desperately fighting against a large number of RJC’s men. The sight made Oscar’s heart skip a beat.

“Yes?”
