"That kick was really good!"
A tall young man walked into the bar and approached Chu Xun, sincerely praising. The man had thick eyebrows and big eyes, a square face, a crew cut, and a simple demeanor.
" brother Shi, why are you here?" Chu Xun slowly put down his legs and smiled.
"Young handsome guy, then goodbye!"
Ai Xiaomei took a glance at the young man and felt that he seemed somewhat familiar. She saw Chu Xun recognizing the young man, didn't want to disturb them, took another look at the young man, and then turned and walked away.
The young man saw the mess on the ground, with drinks spilled everywhere, and many customers sporting bruises, and said, "This time it's quite a mess!"
The young man's name is Tie Shi, and he is a police officer in the area where the bar is located, at the police station.
Two years ago, a brawl broke out at the bar. When the police station police officers received the news, they promptly rushed to the scene. By the time they arrived, the situation was already under control, and both sides of the altercation had been subdued by a teenage waiter. The police officers were amazed by what they saw. That teenager was none other than Chu Xun.
Tie Shi had just graduated from the police academy and went on patrol to a bar with his colleagues. He was passionate about combat sports and noticed Chu Xun's exceptional skills, so he took the initiative to get to know him and often invited him to spar together. Later, when there were frequent disturbances, he had to come to this place for patrol.
As time went on, the two became acquainted. Recently, due to some reasons, he was transferred from the police station to the city criminal investigation team. Thinking that he wouldn't be able to see Chu Xun often in the future, he decided to come and see him, and then encountered a disturbance at the bar again.
"You still say that, we common people are bullied by hooligans, and you, as a people's police, come so late!" Chu Xun joked.
Tie Shi scratched his head and said, "Police are also human, how can they take care of everything! And in the future, I won't be able to manage even if I want to. I'm transferring to the city, so I probably won't be able to come often. I came to find you today for a drink."
"I'm only seventeen, how can the police officer lead a minor to drink alcohol!" Chu Xun said with a playful turn of her beautiful eyes.
"Well, that's true. How about I get you a drink?" Tie Shi sat down at the bar, gave a hearty smile, patted Chu Xun on the shoulder, and said, "But seriously, the angle and strength of your kick just now were really good! It's no wonder you could beat that Chen Po. He's a well-known thug in the area, and he's quite skilled." As he mentioned the name Chen Po, a hint of seriousness appeared on his simple face.
Chu Xun didn't know the details of the person he would be facing tonight, so he asked, "Is that person very powerful?"
"He's a tricky character! You've offended a troublemaker in the martial arts world, so you need to be careful in the future. But I've heard that Chen Po isn't the type to play dirty and seek revenge behind your back," Tie Shi said solemnly, then changed the subject, "But if you can defeat him, then you are truly powerful!" With that, he reached out and patted Chu Xun's shoulder, then patted his arm.
"That's natural! I'm very capable... Ah... Ah... Ouch... Ouch!" Chu Xun realized that the person he had repelled was a well-known troublemaker in the Taoist community. He had a proud look on his face, but little did he know that Tie Shi accidentally touched the wound on his arm, causing him to grimace in pain.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" Tie Shi scratched his head, feeling very apologetic.
The two finished their drinks and chatted for a while. Tie Shi saw that it was getting late, nodded to Uncle Kun, the bar owner who was sitting in the corner of the bar, and then left. Uncle Kun just waved his hand in response.
He had been focused on the soap opera playing on the TV the whole time, not even turning around during the earlier bar fight. It seemed that nothing could grab his attention.
Chu Xun sent off Tie Shi, but suddenly felt a chill behind him.
He was startled and wondered if he had been stabbed in the back during the fight with Chen Po. He reached behind and, upon pulling his hand back, realized that it was just sweat causing the chill. He knew the sweat was from the intense fight with Chen Po, caused not only by the hot weather but also by the tension of the battle.
He slowly recalled the scenes of the previous intense battle, thinking to himself that although he had the upper hand at the beginning, his eventual victory was really just a stroke of luck. If it weren't for the young man's dagger slipping at a critical moment, combined with that kind of power, he might not have been a match for the young man.
He secretly considered himself fortunate, took off his clothes, changed into another one, and then helped his colleagues clean up.
A moment later, the bar was tidied up, the scattered glass shards were gathered and swept away, the spilled drinks and bloodstains on the floor and tables were cleaned up, the tables and chairs were rearranged neatly, and the bar resumed business. As for the people who were injured in the earlier fight, they also left the bar shortly after the group of thugs departed.
A man with a swollen eye socket, groaning and moaning, was supported by a woman wearing sunglasses as they limped out of the bar. Three men, representing Northeast, Guangdong, and Sichuan, seemed to have formed a bond of friendship during a previous fight. They supported each other and followed the man with the swollen eye as they left, asking for the location of the nearest hospital from Chu Xun.
The gangsters left in a sorry state, the injured customers sought medical treatment, the dance floor was cleaned up, and the bar soon regained its lively atmosphere. People sang and danced, clinked glasses, and discussed the earlier brawl, with a mix of seriousness and laughter.
Ai Xiaomei, having vented her emotions through singing earlier, confidently walked to the middle of the dance floor with her shining white legs and sang a song for everyone.
The night deepens. The sea breeze blows in gusts, driving away the heat clinging to every inch of the city. The atmosphere in the bar also grows colder as the night deepens. Finally, the guests gradually leave, and One cat welcomes the closing time of the day. The bar staff also leave the bar one after another.
Chu Xun takes off the waiter's apron, wipes the sweat from his head, and looks at uncle Kun. The latter shifts his attention from the soap opera, turns off the TV, and waves to Chu Xun.
"Are you still practicing today? I heard your dad is back home! Won't you spend some time with him?"
Chu Xun Upon hearing this, his expression immediately dimmed, but then he forced a smile and said, "I really feel like practicing today!"
uncle Kun didn't say anything, just gently rubbed Chu Xun's head with his smoke-scented big hand.
Chu Xun walked to the entrance and closed the bar's door from the inside, then came to the bar counter.
He shook his arm, confirming that there was no major injury. He leaned on the bar counter with his palm for support and gently landed inside the bar counter. He moved away the clutter and drinks piled up in the corner, and lifted the tarpaulin covering the ground.
Under the tarpaulin was a gray steel plate. He inserted his fingers into the two concave areas in the middle of the steel plate, and with force, slowly pried it open.
