Super Zoo

Chapter 69 : 69: A Hard Life



Although the bald man was only a thug, on Yangchuan Road, mentioning "Bald Brother" still meant something.

He might not dare commit murder or arson, but when it came to fighting and brawling, he never pulled his punches. By all accounts, one could say that he was tough enough to be categorized as a ruthless man. Even if he got his head split open, tears wouldn't be expected, yet at this moment, the bald man was crying miserably, like a little wife who had been wronged.

"Stop beating around the bush, get to the point!" Zhou Jin said, glaring at him impatiently and pointing at the large bumps on his head, he asked in surprise, "Hey, did you get stung by wasps again?"

The underlings nearby immediately thought of the last time the bald man was stung by wasps and had an accident with his bladder and bowels; they almost burst into laughter.

"Laugh my ass off! Let him speak!" Zhou Jin commanded angrily.

With tears streaming down his face, the bald man began to recount his encounter that evening.

As darkness fell, he packed seven crocodile eels, each at least half a meter long, into a large snake skin bag and climbed over the wall into the zoo.

When he stealthily made his way to the edge of Shuijun Lake, the bald man was quite proud of himself.

This time, not only would he avoid being held responsible for the loss of the fish, but he could also take this opportunity to seriously retaliate against Suming.

In truth, he had no significant grudge against Suming. Logically speaking, the bald man understood that the wasp sting from before should have been an accident and had nothing to do with Suming.

But obsession is a dangerous thing. The more the bald man dwelled on the past incident, the more he hated Suming. The more Zhou Jin held him back from personally dealing with Suming, the stronger the bald man's desire for revenge grew, like a seed taking root and sprouting in his heart, growing ever larger.

Now, with these crocodile eels, all the fish in the lake would not survive. That kid was bound to suffer a significant loss.

Crocodile eels didn't just eat fish. These large crocodile eels could band together and even biting a person to death wouldn't be a problem. If a visitor were injured, that kid would definitely have to take responsibility.

By then, not only would Shuijun Lake not be up for lease, but he might even get fired. Temporary workers are, after all, meant to take the fall.

If Suming was fired, without the protection of the zoo, Suming, being an outsider, would be at the mercy of whatever he, Bald Brother, wanted to do to him, whether it be crush him flat or twist him into a pretzel, it would all depend on his word.

Watching each of the crocodile eels slide into the lake from the snake skin bag and quickly vanish in the water, the bald man couldn't help but get excited. He seemed to foresee the future where Suming would cry and beg for mercy under his steel pipe.

"I'm going to break your third leg as well... Ow, what the hell is that..."

Engrossed in the fantasy of his future violent acts, the bald man suddenly felt an intense pain on his head, as if he'd been pricked by a needle, and instinctively slapped his bald forehead.

With a smack, he hit nothing, but the buzzing sound that he remembered all too well reached his ears!

"Damn it, not this again!" Hearing the sound, the bald man nearly had a heart attack and quickly retreated several steps. He wrapped his head with the wet snake skin bag tightly, leaving only his eyes visible, and looked around cautiously.

Fortunately, there were only one or two wasps circling him. The bald man waved his arms frantically and finally managed to drive the wasps away.

Although the wasps were gone, the large bump on his head was incredibly painful. It seemed that the wasp's venom was particularly potent; in less than half a minute, the bald man felt dizzy and an oppressive sensation in his chest, as if a large stone were pressing down on him.

He leaned against a tree and retched "urgh, urgh, urgh" a few times, but other than saliva, nothing came out.

Looking up, he saw a few cats squatting on the grass in a dark corner not far away, staring coldly at him.

The lakeside was tranquil and serene, the faint moonlight glittering on the surface of the water, creating ripples as smooth as jade. In such a beautiful moment, the bald man involuntarily shuddered inside and uttered a rather bookish phrase,

"This is not a place to stay for long!"

Thinking this, he hastily turned around and fled the way he came. Thankfully, he didn't encounter any patrolling security guards. His escape went incredibly smoothly. After walking a distance through the pitch-black woods, he was just about to reach the fence that surrounded the woods.

Just then, the bald man suddenly felt something was off. From behind him came the sound of rustling footsteps, as if something was following him.

"Who's there!" A chill ran down his spine, and he slowly turned to look back.

Not far behind him, two large dogs that looked like calves slowly emerged, their eyes pitch black as they gazed at him oddly, tilting their heads.

"Eh, Hei and Erhei? It's you guys!" The bald man recognized the two dogs at a glance—they were exactly the ones they had raised to guard the fish pond by biting people.

His eyes twirled, and he thought that Zhou Jin had been quite dissatisfied with him recently, if he could not only complete the task smoothly this time but also bring back the two stolen wolfhounds, maybe he could improve the impression Zhou Jin had of him.

It seemed that these two dogs had been following him all along, but they hadn't pounced to bite, which meant that Hei and Erhei still recognized him.

The bald man sneakily looked around, and seeing no one else, he whistled at the two wolfhounds and whispered, "Hei, Erhei, follow me!"

Upon hearing the whistle, the two wolfhounds cocked their heads, as if they remembered something, and their eyes grew even more bewildered.

"Come on, Hei... Erhei..."

The bald man, afraid of incidents happening if they delayed, and of being discovered by patrolling security guards, crouched down and started moving towards the dogs, intending to lead them away. He had barely taken two sneaky steps when suddenly the expressions of the wolfhound brothers changed. They lowered their bodies, their eyes turned fierce, and they slightly bared their teeth, revealing two rows of gleaming fangs, and started to growl lowly.

"Woo... woof..."

Wang Cai finally let out its first bark, and the sound immediately carried far away. In the distant woods, two flashlight beams appeared; someone had heard the noise and was rushing over!

The bald man didn't even think before he turned and ran!

In his panic, he forgot a basic rule: you should never run when encountering dogs in a narrow path!

The two wolfhounds were originally feeling somewhat sentimental, but his running away instead infuriated the wolfhound brothers, who chased after him like lightning from behind.

Howl howl howl... Howl howl howl...

In the darkness, there was a tangle, and it was unclear whether it was a human or a dog that was yelping.

Luckily, these two dogs had been trained by Suming, not to bite people to death. They didn't bite at vital parts and still sort of recognized the bald man, showing 'mercy', or else the two large wolfhounds were more than capable of literally biting the bald man to death.

Even so, in just a few seconds, the fleshier parts of the bald man's buttocks and thighs were ferociously bitten several times, causing heart-wrenching pain, and a large chunk of his trousers was torn off.

The flashlight beams were getting closer, and the sound of footsteps could be heard clearly. The bald man bit down on his pain, and in this critical moment, he burst out with surprising potential and fought hard to shake off the two wolfhounds' pursuit. He scrambled up the back wall, running up to the top in a few quick steps and sat straddling it.

The wall top was covered in shards of broken glass, and as the bald man straddled the wall, he screamed out in agony. The intense pain in his buttocks and the two hands that grasped the wall top were pierced and bleeding profusely, and his whole body was impaled by his own weight.

Having dozens of glass shards stuck in his behind was an indescribably 'special' experience. The bald man's mouth and facial muscles twitched, and any slight movement brought piercing pain.

"Who's there!"

The security guard finally emerged from the woods, shone the flashlight toward the wall top. The bald man hurriedly covered his face, and at this point didn't care about anything else, flinging one leg over the side of the zoo.

Crack crack... a few faint snaps rang out, and a large number of glass shards on the wall suddenly disappeared, all embedding into the bald man's buttocks.

...

"Mr. Zhou... I'm literally risking my life for your business... Ow, be gentle..."

The bald man lay on the couch, sobbing as he recounted the ordeal, with a henchman using tweezers to remove the glass shards from his buttocks one by one. A few other henchmen couldn't hold back anymore and burst into laughter, covering their mouths.

"First, it was hornets; could this guy really train hornets?" After hearing the bald man's story, even Zhou Jin was a bit skeptical.

It wasn't impossible, as beekeepers could use the nature of bees to simply command them.

One of the henchmen held back his laughter with a cough and said, "Mr. Zhou, we should send the bald guy to get some shots first, in case he contracts rabies. That wouldn't be good."

Zhou Jin looked at the bald man with a bit of disgust, waved his hand, "You take him to the hospital, and you guys, come with me to guard the fishpond. We cannot afford any problems with this batch of new fish fry!"
