Standing on the upper floor, Li Nan suddenly threw out such a statement, leaving Lin Hai at a loss. However, judging by Li Nan's expression, it didn't seem like he was pretending.
Lin Hai then noticed Li Dapeng, whose face was filled with determination. It seemed that this child possessed a maturity that was not in line with his age.
Lin Hai couldn't grasp the ins and outs of the situation, but he still nodded to Li Dapeng, saying, "This mission is fraught with danger; you must be mentally prepared!"
Li Dapeng gritted his teeth and replied, "At worst, I’ll die. I fear nothing!"
Lin Hai was taken aback by the aura of this child. Just as he was at a loss for words, Li Nan had already come down from the upper floor, carrying a half-human-height Mechanical Composite Longbow on his shoulder and a quiver on his back.
Li Nan walked over to the dining table, tossed something to Li Dapeng, and said, "This is a magazine for a Walther pistol, ten rounds. Use them sparingly!"
Li Dapeng paused for a moment before taking the magazine, examining it briefly before tucking it into his lower back and no longer looking at Li Nan.
Mo Xiaohui at the dining table wanted to say a few more words of persuasion, but Li Nan turned around and said, "Let him go. He will have to take on responsibilities sooner or later; now is the time for him to be tempered!"
Mo Xiaohui still felt uneasy about Li Dapeng and immediately said to Li Nan, "I want to go with you; I need to keep an eye on Li Dapeng!"
Li Nan bitterly replied, "Are you saying that I’m not chaotic enough right now? Just stay put in the camp and remember: always be wary of others!"
Mo Xiaohui nodded but turned to Li Dapeng and said, "When you're outside, don’t act recklessly; you’re still young..."
Li Dapeng was unwilling to listen to Mo Xiaohui's nagging and immediately stepped forward out of the Small Buildings.
At this moment, Li Nan also said, "We have to go now. Those staying at home must remember my words!"
After saying that, Li Nan held up the Mechanical Composite Longbow and walked out.
Outside the Small Buildings, a military armored vehicle was already parked there. When Li Nan looked closely, he recognized it as the vehicle they had retrieved from Jiangbei Hospital.
Just as Li Nan approached, a head suddenly popped out from the driver's seat—it was Fatty.
Fatty grinned widely and shouted at Li Nan and Lin Hai, "Get in quickly! Let’s finish up early so we can get back for lunch!"
Seeing Fatty made Li Nan inexplicably amused; he immediately jumped into the passenger seat.
Li Nan looked at Fatty's expression and said, "What's wrong? You don't blame me now?"
Fatty opened his wide mouth and then half-closed it, "It's all in the past. One must look forward in life. Since I've chosen to stay in the camp, I have to do something. I'm not someone who can just sit idle. So when I heard Lin Hai say you had something going on, I was the first to volunteer!"
Li Nan smiled, "I'm not an ungrateful person. I know how my brothers feel about me!"
Li Nan turned to look at the people in the back of the vehicle and noticed that besides Lin Hai, A Fei was also there.
At this moment, Fatty, who was holding the steering wheel, explained, "Bitter Melon's ribs haven't healed properly yet, and that Long-Faced Man is still organizing the remaining brothers. For now, the only ones who can move are us few!"
Li Nan nodded, "That's fine. We should leave two responsible people in the camp. Besides, our task today is quite simple; this manpower is already sufficient!"
Then Li Nan asked Fatty, "Do you know where the High-Tech Park in the city is located?"
Fatty smiled, "Before I went to prison, I was a courier running all over the city as Fat Brother. How could I not know where it is? If it weren't for Lin Hai telling me about this, you might not have been able to find that High-Strength Titanium Alloy Metal!"
Li Nan also smiled broadly. In fact, he knew a bit about Fatty, and with Fatty's careless personality, he couldn't hide any secrets.
It turned out that Fatty had joined the army a long time ago and spent ten years in the military, growing into a sharpshooter who never missed a shot. However, later on, due to his stubbornness and disdain for his incompetent superior, he ended up beating that arrogant officer out of anger. If it weren't for Fatty's subordinates being able to distinguish between light and heavy matters, that officer might have been seriously injured after three punches. Although Fatty held back a bit, he still received a severe punishment. Being a hot-headed person himself and feeling too constrained in the military, he decided to quit!
After leaving the army, Fatty wandered into Jiangbei City. Because of his previous military background, he easily found a job as a courier.
Thus, Fatty rode an old electric bike through the streets and alleys of Jiangbei City for an entire year. However, after some trouble arose, he ended up in prison.
At the end of the year, Fatty's courier work became quite heavy; running around made him exhausted like a dog. Naturally, his temper wasn't great during that time when he unexpectedly encountered a peculiar young woman.
Fatty stood under an apartment building with a large package filled with pistachios, waiting for delivery. After about ten minutes, a young woman finally came down from upstairs. She wore a short cheongsam skirt and had heavy makeup on her face, looking like a monster from childhood comic books.
Feeling good about herself, she walked slowly down the steps as if she needed half an hour just to descend a few steps.
Fatty felt disdainful inside, thinking to himself, "Damn it! With that old face of hers, even my grandmother would think she's too old!"
The woman dawdled and took her time signing for the package. When she turned around to open it, she discovered that most of the pistachios had already been taken by someone else. She immediately confronted Fatty angrily, "Did you steal my pistachios?"
"Wow! It turns out she's a real tigress!" Fatty was about to turn and leave when he turned back and laughed, "Sister, are you joking? Am I that kind of person?" Immediately after, Fatty let out a loud belch and shouted at the half-grown woman across from him, "Damn! Your mouth reeks of Pistachio, and you say it wasn't you who ate it?"
Fatty grinned, "You woman, all you do is talk nonsense. Which of your eyes saw me eat your Pistachio?"
The half-grown woman immediately put her hands on her hips, looking fierce, and yelled at Fatty, "You Fatty! You ate my Pistachio and still refuse to admit it. Today, my temper is really flaring up; I’m going to teach you a lesson, you scoundrel!"
After saying that, she reached out to hit Fatty. However, although Fatty was a bit overweight, his ten years in the military were not for nothing. He quickly sidestepped and avoided her. Unfortunately, the woman lost her balance and slipped, landing face-first on the ground in a comical manner.
It seemed that the ground was slick with a thin layer of ice from winter.
Fatty couldn't help but laugh and waved his hand, saying, "Ladies, you can't blame me for this; you fell on your own!"
The woman looked up angrily at Fatty and without thinking started to throw a tantrum. Ignoring the Pistachio incident entirely, she shouted, "This damn man is bullying me! Is there no justice left in this world?"
Even though Fatty was quite carefree, he couldn't handle this situation and quickly shrank his neck and blended into the crowd to escape.
The next day, while delivering packages, Fatty suddenly received a call from the headquarters of the courier company, asking him to come in immediately.
It turned out that the woman from yesterday had reported both Fatty and the courier company. Her specific complaint was that the delivery personnel had pocketed her items and then assaulted her after the incident, resulting in Ms. Wu suffering a fracture in her left leg. She even attached a CT scan from the hospital.
Seeing this situation unfold, Fatty chuckled lightly and said, "This is a misunderstanding; it's such a trivial matter. How could it escalate like this?"
The business manager of the courier company immediately berated Fatty and then fired him. Furthermore, he demanded that Fatty personally compensate Ms. Wu for her medical expenses amounting to ten thousand yuan.
At this point, Fatty felt overwhelmed. After working hard for a year in Jiangbei City without making any money, he ended up losing his severance pay as well. Anger surged through him.
After being dismissed from the courier company, Fatty became increasingly furious as he thought about it. "Is it just because I ate half a bag of Pistachios? You want to play me like this? Just wait; I'll show you something!"
Fatty clenched his teeth and made up his mind. A few days before the Lunar New Year, he went to Ms. Wu's apartment building; he knew she lived on the third floor in unit 301. Coincidentally, that day Ms. Wu's window was slightly open for ventilation. As Fatty hovered downstairs, he pulled out two firecrackers from his pocket, lit them with a cigarette butt, and threw them directly into Ms. Wu's house through the window.
Watching the two firecrackers fly into her home made Fatty feel gleeful. "I won't let you off easily!"
Originally, Fatty just wanted to scare her; however, just as he turned to leave, Ms. Wu's house suddenly caught fire. By the time the fire department arrived, it almost burned down the entire building. In the end, Fatty was convicted of arson and sentenced to death with a two-year reprieve at Jiangbei First Prison.
Mentioning this past event, Fatty couldn't help but mutter, "I was really such an idiot back then!"
A Fei, sitting in the back seat, teased, "That's not being an idiot; that's just being reckless. Only a fool would do something like that!"
Fatty shook his head, saying, "If it weren't for this twist of fate, I wouldn't have met Brother Three in prison, nor would I have met you guys. Who knows if it's luck or just bad luck!"
Li Nan interjected, "Alright, enough with the nostalgia. Let's get driving!"
Just as Fatty pressed the gas pedal, Li Dapeng jumped into the car.
Fatty turned around and saw a little kid. He immediately shushed him, saying, "Hurry back home and find your mom for some milk. Don't delay our important business!"
Li Dapeng pouted and said, "I want to go on the mission with you!"
Fatty's eyes widened for a moment, while Li Nan showed no reaction. In an instant, Fatty seemed to understand something and said, "Life is getting more interesting. I hope Brother Nan won't send me out on a mission with a bikini beauty next time!"
Li Nan didn't respond; he simply gestured for Fatty to drive. Without any hesitation, Fatty stepped on the gas, and the military armored vehicle shot out.
