464: Chapter 457: Saving People 464: Chapter 457: Saving People Ye Rongzhong’s inquiry had an answer from Chen Hai imdiately.
He smiled and replied, “Uncle Ye, I, Chen Hai, always keep my word.”
“Once the words are spoken, I definitely will not go back on the matter of testing my strength.”
“However, regarding the testing location, we should choose an open area, and not the kind of enclosed space underground!”
…
While saying this, Chen Hai also pondered for a bit.
Physical resistance to a nuclear explosion—how confident could he be?
Complete certainty, he definitely did not have.
According to his own estimates, in the case of a small-yield nuclear bomb blast, at most he would have seventy to eighty percent confidence of surviving it.
Moreover, even if he could survive, the odds of coming out completely unscathed and uninjured were extrely slim.
Despite this, Chen Hai felt that he must conduct this test experint.
After all, in his trip to Myanmar North, he had already demonstrated superhuman strength.
Such a level of power, if it’s not under one’s own control, no country would want to see that!
Nowadays, there was peace and prosperity, and the top leaders had contributed greatly.
Chen Hai loved his country deeply; he had never thought to cause any conflict with the authorities or disrupt the nation’s normal order.
Buying a birdcage, he initially planned to stroll with the birds when idle!
But now, inside the birdcage, there was just a little chick.
No choice, since he heard that even sparrows had beco nationally protected animals and there were endless stories on the internet about a farr getting imprisoned for a few years because he accidentally killed a bird.
Whether these stories were true or false, Chen Hai wasn’t sure.
To avoid keeping a bird that might land him in prison indefinitely, he had no choice but to raise a little chick as a pet.
Abiding by the law and maintaining national legislation, Chen Hai really had made every effort.
To maintain his peaceful life and avoid disturbances from the authorities, he felt, the only way was to display a strength that would leave them in despair.
“Since you’ve already made the decision, then I won’t try to persuade you further.”
“In a week’s ti, which is the third of next month, the military will send soone to fetch you.”
“The secrecy of this matter is of the highest level, you should understand its importance…”
After telling Chen Hai a few things, Ye Rongzhong finally hung up the phone.
He only discussed the testing matter with Chen Hai; as for justice that Chen Hai sought, he didn’t even ntion it.
But for people at their level, it suffices to have their own understanding of certain matters.
Had they blatantly spoken about it so straightforwardly, it would have appeared extrely unseemly.
“Finally, there’s a decision?
The third of next month?
Just a few days away…”
Putting down the phone, Chen Hai was also in a good mood.
He picked up a handful of rice and threw it into the small feeder inside the birdcage.
The pet chick inside chirped incessantly, seemingly celebrating for Chen Hai.
Sitting on the sofa in the living room, Chen Hai picked up his phone and browsed through the news.
However, he soon felt bored again.
During the day at Tianning Temple, with too many people around, if Chen Hai wanted to sneak in and steal sothing, he would have to wait until midnight.
Glancing at the ti, it was now around five-thirty in the afternoon.
“Dinner ti again, might as well go out for a stroll since I’m idle!”
After hesitating a bit, Chen Hai stood up and walked outside.
He did not bring the birdcage used for walking the chicken.
In the afternoon, he had already taken the cage out for a walk.
Walking the chick in the birdcage did give him so feeling of walking a bird, but the odd looks from others left him feeling a bit miffed!
Near the exit of Liuhua Alley, a few hundred ters away, inside a newly built small park.
Couples were walking, older n and won were exercising their bodies, and children were playing on the grass.
Wearing cloth shoes and dressed in a Tang suit, sporting a clean-shaven head, Chen Hai strolled leisurely in the park with his hands clasped behind his back.
“Chen, out for a walk again?”
“Just idling around freely!”
“You youngster, living such a leisurely life, starting to retire early eh!”
…
At this ti, most of those strolling in the park were residents from nearby areas.
Chen Hai had nothing else to do, so he often ca here to stroll around.
He didn’t recognize any of the younger ones, but he had already gotten to know quite a few of the elderly n and won.
After all, young people were mostly too busy, without the ti to amble around the park every day, only occasionally visiting.
It was these elderly n and won, wealthy and idle, who could almost be seen daily within the park.
Of course, Chen Hai’s acquaintance with them was rely limited to exchanging greetings, definitely not extending to any deeper relationships.
“Ah, ah, ah…” From sowhere, a large wolfhound was fiercely chasing a boy of about ten years old.
The boy scread in fright, managing to run only a dozen steps before tripping in his panic, falling flat on the ground.
Like a starving tiger pouncing on its prey, the wolfhound bit onto the boy’s calf.
The severe pain caused the boy to start screaming pitifully.
Several nearby elderly n and won, witnessing the scene, similarly turned pale with shock.
They hadn’t even reacted yet when Chen Hai, who was nearby, dashed over in a flash, kicking the dog’s head fiercely.
With a “puff…”
The wolfhound was sent flying ten ters away, hitting the ground, and was motionless, completely lifeless.
“Who walks a dog without a leash, don’t they have any sense of public decency?”
“Whose child is this?
With his leg injured like that, he needs to be rushed to the hospital!”
“I recognize this child, he belongs to Wang Damao from my neighborhood.
His parents are likely still not off work at this ti.
With his leg bitten like this, it’s tragic!”
…
The several elderly n and won finally hurried over.
Seeing the boy still lying on the ground, constantly screaming in agony, so of them called the police while others imdiately dialed 120.
“Heini, Heini…”
“Heini is dead, who did this…”
Not far away, a young woman with a hat, half of her face hidden behind toad sunglasses, and carrying high heels, rushed over hastily.
She barely glanced at the boy’s injuries before swiftly moving on.
When she saw the dead wolfhound on the ground, she rushed to its side and began wailing in grief, utterly heartbroken.
“Sister Xixi, restrain your grief!”
“Heini was so cute; the culprit is too cruel, we can’t let them off easily!”
“It was that guy wearing the Tang suit, from a distance, I saw with my own eyes, he kicked Heini away!”
…
Another man and woman, both young, sprinted to the dead wolfhound’s side.
While consoling the woman with sunglasses, the young man, pointing in the direction of Chen Hai but speaking in a soft voice, explained.
“Is the dog yours?
Unleashing the dog to attack people in a public place, killing your dog, it seems you’re quite upset with ?”
Their whispers couldn’t escape Chen Hai’s sharp ears.
Seeing them looking towards him with faces full of resentnt and anger, Chen Hai straightforwardly walked over and addressed the woman known as Sister Xixi, interrogating her.
“My Heini was usually very well-behaved!”
“If it weren’t for that brat throwing little stones at it, why would it suddenly go mad and attack soone?”
“The person was bitten, it’s our responsibility, and we won’t shirk it.
Whatever the dical and nutritional costs are, we are willing to pay!”
“But now, my Heini is dead.
Is a human life a life, but a dog’s life is not?”
“Heini had been with for three years, how could you be so ruthless?
Couldn’t you have pulled Heini away instead of kicking it to death?”
“If you don’t give us a satisfactory answer, this matter definitely cannot be left like this!”
…
The woman with sunglasses, Zhang Xi, looked as if she could devour soone, her gaze sternly fixed on Chen Hai as she reproached him furiously.
This woman, despite her dog having bitten soone, seed to have no sense of guilt at all.
On the contrary, she appeared to be extrely upset over the dog’s death, denouncing Chen Hai while the tears at the corners of her eyes continuously stread down.
To her, Chen Hai appeared to have committed so unforgivable cri simply by killing a dog.
Her face was filled with hatred and deep resentnt; if looks could kill, at this mont, Chen Hai might have already been torn to pieces multiple tis.
“This dog deserved to die!”
“Having killed your dog, what kind of satisfactory answer are you expecting?”
There was no reasoning with this kind of woman.
His expression darkening, Chen Hai snorted coldly in response.
