Peerless Little Immortal Doctor-Chapter 627 - 628 Contradiction

Chapter 627: Chapter 628 Contradiction Chapter 627: Chapter 628 Contradiction The container was rather large, with a few sofas placed inside, all of them were the worn-out type belonging to Old Chen.

Three women were sound asleep on one of the sofas.

Another two women were chatting away with a man on another sofa.

When they saw newcomers enter, the three of them immediately greeted them.

Xia Liu, Rose, and Yanzi were not intimidated by these people.

After the sailor left, Xia Liu also started chatting with the three of them.

Half an hour later, they had all caught on to some basic facts about each other.

...

All three of them were without identification and had come here to work in the black market, introduced by relatives.

Now, they had saved some money and could go home.

The two women were not very beautiful, just ordinary Huaxia girls you would pass on the street, around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old.

The man was about thirty years old, also with a very ordinary appearance. His name was Zhang Ke, and he was from the Western Province.

As for the price they paid to board the ship, that was rather impressive—less than ten thousand US dollars.

Upon learning this price, Yanzi and Rose almost lost their composure and wanted to kill the captain.

Wasn’t this just blatantly cheating them?

Thankfully, Xia Liu managed to restrain them.

If Rose and Yanzi went after the captain, they wouldn’t even have left America, and they definitely would have run into a lot of trouble.

So even if they were going to teach someone a lesson, it would have to wait until they were far from America.

The two women were named Zhang Lu and Lan Ting, and they greatly admired Zhang Ke.

Because as soon as Zhang Ke met the two women, he started bragging about how powerful he was and how much money he had made.

“Hey brother, I’m telling you, next time you come to America, look for me on Wall Street. I have a few hundred brothers there,” Zhang Ke quickly boasted when they spoke about work.

…

Yanzi and Rose wore embarrassed expressions, not to mention Xia Liu.

If you’re so great on Wall Street, why the hell would you need to take a smuggler’s ship back home?

If it weren’t for being blacklisted by the Psychic Bureau last night, Xia Liu would have taken a plane, and even flown first class too.

However, Zhang Ke’s words did stir the admiration of Lan Ting and Zhang Lu.

“Brother Zhang, you’re really amazing.”

“Of course,” replied Zhang Ke, “Brother Zhang said, us Huaxia people on Wall Street are all impressive fellows.”

Zhang Ke smiled knowingly and continued, “If I hadn’t hit a ‘special’ someone, I wouldn’t be taking a ship back home. But it doesn’t matter, after hanging around back home for a month or two, I’ll fly back to America, and it’ll be the start of another wonderful life.”

“Hehe! Brother Zhang is so amazing. Lan Ting and I had it pretty rough in America, we could only work in unregistered factories,” said Zhang Lu with a helpless look.

“Girl, you share my surname, how could you work in such a place? If you ever want to go to America again, follow me. We’ll enjoy the good life together,” Zhang Ke said with a look of pity.

“Really? That’s so great, thank you so much, Brother Zhang!”

“Thank you, Brother Zhang!”

Lan Ting and Zhang Lu looked excitedly at Zhang Ke.

Before boarding the ship, their lives had been miserable; they lived in fear and trepidation every day. Having someone to protect them would surely guarantee a life of happiness.

“I, Zhang Ke, never lie. Brother Liu, if you and your friends come to America again, you can also give me a call. I get along quite well here,” said Zhang Ke, seeing that Xia Liu and Rose were not paying much attention to him, he decided to show off even more.

“We really appreciate it, Brother Zhang.”

“Thanks, Brother Zhang!”

Xia Liu exchanged a look with Rose, feigning appreciation with a guilty conscience.

Yanzi outright ignored that dumbass Zhang Ke, still living it up with good food and drink.

Just look at the knockoff clothes he’s wearing, it’s already good enough if he can afford meals from one day to the next.

As night fell, one of the sailors came in carrying the meal.

No, not a meal, just a few dozen packaged loaves of bread.

Xia Liu frowned slightly at this kind of food.

It seemed Tina had misjudged, what the hell kind of people were running the ship?

But he couldn’t burst out just yet, because they hadn’t passed America’s international waters.

Zhang Ke and the others felt helpless about the bread for dinner, but they were so hungry they could only begrudgingly eat it.

“Fuck! This is even expired bread!” Yanzi completely lost it, throwing the bread at the sailor.

“You asking for trouble?” The sailor glared coldly, just as he was about to teach Yanzi a lesson.

An older sailor stopped him, “Don’t be rash, we’re almost at the maritime inspection point. If they get exposed because of us, we’re all done for.”

“Hmph! You wait, woman! Once we’re past the inspection point, I’ll take care of you!” The young sailor left a threat and turned to leave the container.

“Tch! We’ll see who gets taken care of.” Had Rose not held her back, Yanzi would have struck out right then.

“Ladies and gentlemen, we’ll reach the inspection point in about ten minutes. Don’t make a sound, or we’re all doomed,” the old sailor warned seriously.

“Don’t worry, we know what to do,” Zhang Ke responded after glancing around.

Once the old sailor left satisfied, Zhang Ke turned to Xia Liu with a cold face, “Brother Liu, your friend is not cutting it. This is a critical moment; please be a bit more careful.”

“Kid, who are you saying is not up to it?” Before Xia Liu could respond, Yanzi glared at Zhang Ke.

“Yanzi, don’t be angry, we’re about to go through the checkpoint,” Rose held onto Yanzi, knowing that if they were exposed, it would surely bring a lot of trouble.

So for now, they had to keep a low profile; any grievances could wait until they were back in Huaxia.

“The lady speaks wisely, stay low key, or else you’ll screw us all over,” Zhang Ke said indifferently.

At those words, Lan Ting, Zhang Lu, and the other three women all shot venomous glances at Yanzi.

If they were caught at the inspection, that would be the end.

The money they had earned in America would all be taken away.

They would even be prosecuted, which would really mean ruin.

“Hmph!” Yanzi didn’t want to argue with Zhang Ke, that stupid asshole who, aside from sweet-talking those dumb women, was just a waste of space.

Xia Liu had remained silent from the start; to him, all of this was just passing clouds, quietly waiting to get back to Huaxia.

However, while Xia Liu wanted peace, some people didn’t.

Around five in the morning, the young sailor who Yanzi had waited for all night finally appeared.

He removed his thick scarf, revealing his tanned skin.

“Tsk tsk! Brother Liu, I’d advise you not to act rashly, or that sailor might just throw you overboard,” the young sailor’s arrival awakened everyone.

Zhang Ke looked at Xia Liu with pity.

Offending a sailor under these helpless circumstances was tantilizingly throwing away one’s life.

In the vast ocean, if someone threw you off the boat, there would only be one outcome, death.

“What’s the matter? Can’t stand it anymore?” Yanzi looked coldly at the young sailor. She wasn’t worried; with the Red Dragon Shadow here, who would she fear, who should she fear?
