Chapter 86: Tracking and Observation

Upon hearing these words, Xiang Kun almost burst out laughing.

Who do I associate with?

What does he think I am?

Xiang Kun took out his phone, pulling up his contacts as he spoke, “You want to know who I’m with? Let me call my big brother and let him explain.”

After connecting the call, Xiang Kun said, “Officer Chen, the guy I mentioned yesterday is here, trying to block me at the entrance of the community, yeah, the one from the bar. He brought… yes, he brought seven people, one carrying a controlled knife, threatening to stab me…”

Speaking, he handed the phone to the stunned tall thin man, saying, “My elder brother wants to have a word with you.”

The tall thin man’s first reaction was that Xiang Kun was fooling him, but he realized that the call had been connected, and it could very well be true.

He did not dare to take the phone and yelled directly at it, “It was a misunderstanding! All of it was a misunderstanding!”

He then left quickly with the seven people he had brought with him.

Watching them hastily walk towards two cars parked nearby, Xiang Kun brought the phone back to his ear and said, “Officer Chen, I scared them away with your name.”

“Don’t worry, there wasn’t any fight. They probably just wanted to intimidate me, but they didn’t expect that I knew the police, so they slinked away.”

“Okay, you’ve already made contact with the officer in charge of the area where his bar is located, he would surely behave.”

“You want to invite him over to the precinct for tea? Hehe, wouldn’t that scare the piss out of him?”

“What am I doing now? I’m going out to eat, don’t worry Officer Chen, Brother Chen… I’ve always been one to call the police first when something happens, I never cause trouble on my own initiative, I’m actually very cowardly…” He hung up the phone with Officer Chen; the car he hailed had arrived.

However, after getting into the car, Xiang Kun changed his destination and didn’t head to the rabbit farm. Instead, he instructed the driver in real-time.

He changed his mind, he would not go to the farm today.

The incident just now with the tall thin man didn’t bother him at all. As Officer Chen mentioned on the call, the thin man would neither dare nor have the time to take revenge or trouble him again, this issue was pretty much over.

But there was a situation just now that caught his attention.

Upon seeing the earring boy pull out his switchblade, his mind and body entered a full-speed operational state; seeming relaxed but in actuality, he was highly focused, with his muscles prepared to exert maximum force any time.

And under his influence, the earring boy’s body and mind underwent significant, even drastic changes. The people around them, from their breathing, heartbeats, and scents, all indicated they were suddenly in a highly tensed state.

Xiang Kun recalled the time when he and Tang Baona went riding at a neighboring city’s horse farm. He tried to “intimidate” his target mount to make it more obedient and easier to ride, but ended up scaring all the horses in the farm, causing a collective “strike”.

At that time, he realized his ability to “intimidate” animals had been greatly enhanced and altered after consuming the blood of the “Giant Owl”.

However, he hadn’t had a chance to properly test this ability since.

But judging from today’s situation, his “intimidating ability” which was effective on animals, seems to work on humans as well?

And the reaction of the earring boy could be described as intense, if it lasted any longer, he might even have had heart failure or suffocated to death.

The influence and intensity had exceeded his expectations.

As they were leaving, the earring-laden youth was so weak in the knees he could barely stand, only making it to the car with the help of his companion.

Therefore, as soon as he realized that the earring-laden youth was behaving oddly, he took advantage of his proximity and flicked a ballpoint pen bead he was carrying into the youth’s trouser pocket.

Now, as long as the youth doesn’t discover the ballpoint pen bead in his pocket or changes his pants, Xiang Kun can track him down wherever he may be.

Half an hour later, Xiang Kun got off the car at the entrance of an internet cafe.

Depending on his sensitivity to the “bead”, he could affirm that the punk with the earring was in the internet cafe. And given the lingering scent on the street, the two young men who had previously helped corner him had gone into the cafe with him.

Xiang Kun did not enter the internet cafe, but bought a bottle of mineral water from a nearby convenience store and casually sat down on an outdoor chair to “rest”.

He focussed his attention and released all senses to the fullest. Following the

“bead’s” direction, he began to differentiate among various sensory Inrormatlon.

A few minutes later, he finally heard the vague chatter of the youth in the earring and his two companions, as well as the sound of the League of Legends game from their computers.

At the same time, he had also locked onto the trio’s scent.

However, Xiang Kun quickly became uneasy and headed towards the internet cafe.

Simply overhearing their chat from here could suffice, but Xiang Kun was after more thorough and detailed information. He needed to scrutinize the physical condition of the earring-wearing teenager. So for now, his current distance was too far.

So, trailing behind the young men, Xiang Kun entered the internet cafe. He took note of the earring-clad youth and his two companions’ locations, carefully avoiding their line of sight and proceeded to top up his card using his ID at the counter. He then found a spot a few rows behind them.

After logging into a computer, Xiang Kun randomly browsed the web, but his attention was actually focused on the pierced-eared youth.

Hmm, his heartbeat was still a bit too fast, his breathing rhythm was off, and judging from the smell he was still exuding, he had just sweated a great deal.

Was the effect of the intimidation really lasting this long?

Xiang Kun then turned his attention to the youth in the earring’s two companions. They were also present at the scene and should have been affected by the intimidation, but their reactions weren’t as intense as the youth in the earring’s.

However, judging by their scents, heart rates, and breathing, they had basically returned to normal.

Clearly, if they were not the primary targets, the impact they faced should be relatively smaller.

From the trio’s casual chat as they gamed, Xiang Kun also got to know that the three of them had just graduated high school this year. They were there today because the youth with the earring’s cousin, the one who had grabbed his spring knife and slapped him on the head, had summoned them to make up the numbers for a fight.

“Damn it! My brother originally promised to give us each 200 yuan, but I pulled out the knife and suddenly I’m down to just 100. Fuck! If I knew this, I wouldn’t have brought that knife. And to add insult to injury, my brother beat me up in the car.” muttered the youth with the earring, controlling his hero who was waiting to respawn, as he grumbled while flipping through his phone.

“We were just there to make up the numbers, and you went and brought a knife, even taking the lead. I can’t fathom what you were thinking…” one of his mates shook his head and said, “Your brother is just finding excuses to withhold money. You were the one with the knife, we didn’t do anything wrong, why should we both lose 100?”

The youth on the left-side tsks: “That bald guy feels kind of scary… He had a knife to his belly yet didn’t even crease his brow, he pushed Ah Ping away. Doesn’t he fear Ah Ping trembling hand might accidentally stab him?”

“Damn it, why didn’t we act? It’s a bit shameful!” The mate on the right seemed a little aggrieved.

“Act? Didn’t you hear the bald guy talk about his big brother being a cop?” the youth on the left sneered”Besides, I suspect whether we all together could even beat him. Damn it, I’m not ashamed to admit I was totally muddled at that moment…’

However, the youth in the earring spat and spat: “Cops? That dude clearly seems more like a murderer… If I had stabbed him then, I don’t know whether he would’ve died, but I know for sure he would’ve killed me…. Damn it! What kind of person is this Brother Dong got us into trouble with? He didn’t even

explain clearly…”
