Being in Flagstaff at the same time, there was a high probability of the enemies b.u.mping into each other.
In the morning, Li Du and a few treasure hunters went to the market to stock up on items for the cabin. These treasure hunters had been on his side during the conflict with Frank and York yesterday; he was grateful to them.
Upon entering the market, he said, "Let’s throw a party this evening. What do you guys like to eat and drink? Just load them into the car, I’ll foot the bill."
Turis smiled and said, "No, I’ll pay for everything. You helped me a great deal yesterday. Boss Li, I managed to get hold of some great stuff."
"I’ve also gotten great stuff," Olly said. "It’s been months, d*mmit. I’ve finally managed to get some decent goods!"
"Hey, Boss Li, look—who’s that?"
Li Du turned his head to where Big Beard Carl pointed, and he saw Frank and York.
The two of them were holding hotdogs and going around in the market. They saw Li Du the same time he saw them.
Their eyes met, and then they glanced away at the same time, pretending not to have seen each other.
However, Li Du could feel the hatred in their eyes.
After spotting Li Du, Frank and York whispered to each other through clenched teeth, glancing over at him occasionally, while wearing weird smirks on their faces.
Mr. Li’s keen intuition sensed their ill intention, but he could not hear what they were talking about and had no idea what they were plotting.
With many strong abilities, the little could move through objects, decelerate time, and perform time reversal to relive the past.
But alas, it did not have super-hearing abilities!
At this moment, Li Du suddenly thought about Max, who had the phrase "Its white feathers were floating on the water and its red feet were paddling under the water," tattooed on his chest. His hearing was extremely sharp.
If that kid were here, he’d be able to hear their conversation.
Li Du and the others were standing near a fish stall when Frank and York walked by them.
At this time, Frank stretched his elbow out, intending to create trouble. Li Du had been wary of him, and upon noticing that he had stretched his elbow, he recited silently, Time deceleration!
The speed at which Frank was stretching out his elbow slowed and Li Du successfully dodged the blow. At the same time, he extended his leg out to hook Frank’s ankle, and then gave it a pull.
Time sped up again and a strange thing appeared. The people around them, including the owner of the fishery stall, saw Frank suddenly stick his elbow out, but lose his balance and fell into the big tank!
Splash. The tank was filled with a lot of water, and there were live pikes in it. When Frank fell, there was a huge splash of water.
The surrounding customers around all left hurriedly in shock. The owner jumped up and shouted, "Holy sh*t, d*mn you. What’re you doing?!"
Li Du was the first to rush forward; he grabbed Frank’s head with his right hand and pushed it back into the water, while his left hand was pulling his belt as if he were actually trying to pull him backward.
As he carried that out, he said, "Boss, come and help quickly! My buddy has AIDS. Hurry up and get him out or else these fish will not be able to be sold!"
The black owner was scared by his words. Initially, he had wanted to help Frank but withdrew his hands as soon as he heard these words. "Holy sh*t! Holy sh*t!"
York pushed Li Du away rudely, and shouted, "What c.r.a.p! Get lost!"
Some people at the side started to defend Li Du, saying, "How can you treat him like this? He was giving your friend a hand."
Li Du said generously, "It’s alright, I understand how he feels. They’re very close-knit, even more than husbands and wives. He must be panicking, or else he wouldn’t have done that."
Turis gloated over their misfortune and laughed, "His legs are so weak. I suppose it’s due to the onset of AIDS?"
The surrounding people backed away to create more distance.
In fact, America was one of the countries at the forefront of educating the public on the knowledge of HIV and AIDS. The majority knew what this disease was about, and also possessed the knowledge that it would only spread through the transmission of bodily fluids.
However, the name of this disease was too prominent, and given that there was no cure, people remained fearful of it.
Frank climbed up with seaweed hanging on his ear. His upper body was totally soaked through—he looked a sorry sight.
York hurriedly asked, "Buddy, are you alright?"
Big Beard Carl sighed, "Such a great relations.h.i.+p."
Frank lifted his leg up and was preparing to kick them as he shouted, "D*mn Chinaman! How dare you sneak-attack me?!"
Li Du backed off swiftly, shouting, "We can talk, just don’t touch me!" The rest of the surrounding people backed away as well, as though they were avoiding the transmission of the disease.
Turis said angrily, "This is racial discrimination. Bash that son of a b*tch!"
Li Du pulled him away and said, "What if you get beaten until blood flows? Go, go, go—let’s go quick!"
Although he said to go quickly, he did not walk fast and kept glancing back.
Frank understood very well what had happened: he’d been tripped by Li Du. He wanted to chase after him to settle the score.
The black boss of the fishery stall stopped him, and shouted hastily, "Don’t go off just yet—compensate me first! How am I supposed to sell these fish? You have to buy all of them!"
Frank did not hear what Li Du had said, as his head had been submerged in the water.
Therefore, blocked by the boss, he yelled, "Get lost, what compensation?"
The black boss was not a good-tempered person; he hollered in response, "You gotta pay me back the money for the fis.h.!.+"
York knew what was happening, and wanted to stop the angry Frank to explain everything to him.
Not waiting for him to speak, Li Du shouted across, "Boss, be careful, this guy has extreme anger issues! He’s mental! I’m not babbling nonsense. If I am, then I’m willing to be dealt with by the law!"
Big Beard Carl also shouted, "Yes, he has anger issues. Be careful, when he gets mad, he bites!"
"Stay far away from him! He even bites himself when he gets mad!"
"Let’s just go, better not go near him. This is advice from one friend to another!"
Upon hearing these words, the black boss became anxious. He did not dare go forward, but was unwilling to let the other party leave. He clenched his teeth fiercely, and threw the fishnet from the tank onto Frank.
"Let’s see how far you can run!"
Looking at this, Li Du and the rest could not help but burst into laughter. A few of them even took out their phones to take pictures.
York was fuming. "Don’t listen to these d*mn *ssholes. We’re very healthy. My partner and I are very healthy!"
Frank’s rage was triggered. He tore madly at the net on his body, using his legs to kick at the tank on the floor. With a vicious look, he howled, "I’m going to kill you! Chinaman! I’m going to kill you! I’m going to kill all of you!"
Li Du shrugged. "He is insane."
"He is indeed a lunatic," Turis sneered.
"He has really weak legs. What happened just now? He tripped over himself?"
"No, he stretched his elbow out as though he wanted to knock something over, but in the end he tripped over and fell."
"Dug his own grave!"
