Super Fusion

Chapter 4: They're actually playing dirty tricks?

Just as Xu Yu was lost in thought, he suddenly felt a burning gaze shooting straight at him.

Looking up, Xu Yu was surprised to find it was the young man who had just committed the theft, staring at his left hand with astonishment, his eyes flashing with disdain and mockery.

Xu Yu was stunned at first, then somewhat taken aback.

Little did he know, the young man opposite him was far more shocked than Xu Yu.

He simply couldn't believe that anyone in Ningcheng would dare to provoke him!

Indeed, being caught stealing, and then the other person not only didn't shout but also displayed decent finger skills—what else could it be but encountering a fellow thief, a provocation?

Although pickpockets were not uncommon in a metropolis like Ningcheng, those who could truly master their skills were extremely rare.

Lü Guangchen was a top-tier pickpocket!

Without a doubt.

When it comes to pickpocketing skills, Lü Guangchen could confidently look down on the entire city of Ningcheng. In the past, other pickpockets, upon seeing him on a street corner, would often turn and hide at the other end of the street.

Although there was no official title, Lü Guangchen's reputation as the King of Pickpockets was already being established.

Of course, he didn't strike indiscriminately. His targets had two main criteria: First, their attire and demeanor had to be tasteful—genuine high-class taste, not just an empty shell wrapped in a suit and tie. This often required an extremely sharp eye.

Second, they had to be out-of-towners. After all, anyone with a modicum of sense knew that the poor didn't have much cash, and with modern people accustomed to using cards, even the wealthy might not have much cash. Therefore, after stealing, he often had follow-up methods.

That was to first swallow the cash, then pretend to be a kind stranger who found an empty wallet, and then return the empty wallet. Then, with the cards, ID cards, etc., inside, he could often get a substantial reward.

However, if it were a wealthy and powerful local, it wouldn't be so safe. After all, out-of-towners could simply take the empty leather armor and leave, but locals were likely to be encountered again later. If they were exposed, he would be in big trouble.

Therefore, he usually spent far more time searching for targets than actually stealing. For example, with the target just now, he followed him for several blocks before quickly making his move when the man was momentarily distracted.

But unexpectedly, he encountered a provocation from a fellow thief.

Looking at the man a few steps behind him, whose movements were still somewhat stiff and whose eyes were shifty, Lü Guangchen was certain that this was probably a novice, although his left hand was quite good.

But Lü Guangchen would not hesitate to give anyone who dared to provoke him a cruel blow to their ego.

Amidst a sinister chuckle, Lü Guangchen glanced at Xu Yu again before abruptly turning his head to survey his surroundings. Soon, a few steps ahead, a frail figure walked with its head down, lost in the crowd, caught his eye.

Once he locked onto the figure, Lü Guangchen quickly turned, gave Xu Yu a mocking smile, and pointed at the back.

With just a glance, the already bewildered Xu Yu was stunned once more.

What was going on? What was this person doing…?

Seeing Xu Yu remain motionless, Lü Guangchen showed no concern, simply raising his left hand to give Xu Yu a little finger, then silently turned and casually walked towards the chosen figure.

"Damn!"

Even if Xu Yu hadn't understood before, the other party's actions were so obvious that he'd be an i***t if he still didn't understand. Although he was still puzzled by how strange his sudden ability was, seeing a thief acting so arrogantly, he felt a surge of anger. After a moment's thought, Xu Yu stepped forward and followed the other party.

A few breaths later, Xu Yu arrived behind the frail figure, walking side by side with Lü Guangchen.

To be honest, he was very nervous. After all, while the sudden, strange ability had made his hands more agile, he had never even considered doing something like this before. He

casually glanced left and right; both sides were filled with pedestrians. If anyone looked at him while he was making his move and then cried out in surprise, it would likely cause a panic. At this moment, amidst his extreme tension, Xu Yu was suddenly surprised that he had such courage.

However, this slight surprise eased his previously extremely tense mood.

At the same time, he felt the man walking beside him glance at him with disdain again, then walk on as if nothing had happened, like a passerby strolling down the street.

Indeed, upon approaching their target, Lü Guangchen didn't intend to attack immediately, as that would be too obvious, and Xu Yu, too, instinctively refrained from doing so.

After walking a few meters, the two glanced around again, and finding no one watching, they moved simultaneously.

In an instant, their two left hands, like butterflies flitting among flowers, sprang forward rapidly. However, the right hand remained somewhat stiff during their movement.

"Pfft~"

Noticing the stiffness of his right hand, Lü Guangchen laughed again, but his left hand didn't hesitate at all, directly plucking at the right.

The slightly stiff left hand on the right also reacted in a flash, and the two hands completely transformed into two fluttering, colorful butterflies, quickly intertwining and splashing a dazzling display of light.

However, upon closer inspection, the fluttering of the two butterflies revealed a one-sided chase, with the right hand, slightly stiff, constantly being attacked and forced to dodge and flee.

Meanwhile, the nimble and fluid hand on the left quickly transformed from a fluttering butterfly into a ferocious sparrow, relentlessly pursuing and trying to tear apart any defenses.

After only a few breaths, Xu Yu felt a sharp pain in the back of her hand and abruptly withdrew it.

The dazzling display created by the two left hands vanished.

At the same time, both of them subtly glanced to their left and right.

After all, despite their struggle, neither dared to let outsiders discover their fight. Watching from the sidelines, Lü Guangchen felt a surge of satisfaction. This guy wanted to challenge him? He was utterly courting death!

Soon, realizing no one was watching, Lü Guangchen moved again. This time, he mustered all his strength, ready to teach that guy a lesson.

But when the other's hand swiftly and fiercely lashed out, Lü Guangchen was suddenly taken aback. The hand that had been stiff and clumsy last time was now several times more fluid and skillful, easily dodging his attack. Then, while Lü Guangchen was momentarily stunned, the other hand pecked his left hand hard.

"Hiss~"

Feeling the pain on the back of his hand, Lü Guangchen was immediately alarmed. He quickly withdrew his left hand and glanced suspiciously at his left side, his eyes filled with horror. Impossible! How could this guy have changed so much?

To say that the other party had rapidly grown and matured to this level during the first test was something he simply refused to believe. Therefore, it could only mean that the other party had concealed their strength from the beginning, trying to lull him into a false sense of security.

Thinking of this, Lü Guangchen flew into a rage. This guy was already a master, yet he dared to play dirty tricks on him?

He glared fiercely at Xu Yu, his eyes filled with fury. Lü Guangchen moved again, vowing in his heart that he would make this guy pay.

But just as his left hand reached out, Lü Guangchen suddenly froze. He hadn't received a sniper shot; instead, the other party had directly approached the satchel in front of him.

This strange change greatly surprised him, causing his hand to pause slightly. He turned his head in confusion, and then he saw a strange smile suddenly appear on that clean-cut, handsome face.

"Huh? This guy..."

Before the question in his mind could dissipate, Lü Guangchen was once again horrified to find that the man's mouth suddenly opened wide, and then a loud, low shout suddenly came from that mouth.

"Thief!!"

One sentence completely stunned Lü Guangchen, who stared blankly at the man on his right, looking quite bewildered.

What a joke, this guy was a big thief, and in the midst of a contest between two thieves, he was actually shouting "Stop thief!"

Regardless, while he was still in a daze, a large number of pedestrians on both sides suddenly turned their heads to look. Then, when they saw Lü Guangchen's left hand, which was almost touching the edge of the woman's handbag, the crowd suddenly erupted into chaos.

"Thief?"

"Damn! How dare he!"

"Grab him!!"

Amidst the chaotic shouts, the woman in front finally realized what was happening, turned around, and immediately let out a piercing scream.

Amidst the chaotic screams, Lü Guangchen glanced to the side, his eyes filled with shock and rage. At that moment, he was truly dumbfounded with anger. This guy was utterly shameless!
