Chapter 34 Best Of Times
Angus looked at the address left by Brother Knife and felt surprised. The address Brother Knife left turned out to be the same neighborhood where he currently resides, the same neighborhood where David and Sally live. And Brother Knife's place is just one building away from David and them.
"No wonder it looks so familiar. It's right next to us. But what exactly is a psychic?" Angus continued to look at his phone, and most of the comments below the video were insulting Brother Knife. They called him inhuman and worse than animals. But Angus didn't feel the same way. On the contrary, he admired Brother Knife to some extent.
Since childhood, Angus had admired tough characters in TV shows and movies. Those gangsters who would do anything for their brothers, fearless and invincible, were idols in Angus's mind. But Angus was expelled from school in junior high because he frequently got into fights.
After entering society, Angus fantasized about creating his own success through his toughness. However, due to lack of education and skills, he struggled in society. His former school friends gradually moved on to higher education and stopped contacting him. The enormous gap made Angus feel miserable all these years.
Angus was captivated by Brother Knife's videos. He opened Brother Knife's homepage and watched a video titled "Recruiting Heroes from All Over." In the video, Brother Knife was shirtless, revealing his muscular body. He effortlessly twisted and snapped a U-shaped lock into two pieces.
Brother Knife casually tossed the broken lock aside, clapped his hands, and pointed at the camera, saying, "Brothers, the world has changed. This is the worst of times, but also the best. The victors reign, the losers suffer. Join my team, brothers. We'll fight together in times of trouble and share in good fortune. A man should make something of himself now and not cowardly hide at home like a waste."
Brother Knife's tone was domineering, his actions bold. He waved his hand and said, "Brother, remember this. It doesn't matter if you're a corporate executive, a big boss, a celebrity, or a billionaire... None of that matters here with Brother Knife. Understand? In Brother Knife's world, strength is king. If you're a dragon, you bow to me; if you're a tiger, you lie down for me."
Brother Knife's videos mainly showcased his astonishing strength, with the purpose of recruiting more allies. Many of his videos were explicit and gruesome, causing discomfort. Similarly, each video left Brother Knife's contact information and address below.
Angus suddenly felt a sense of enlightenment. "Yeah, what kind of world is this? Why should I cower here eating instant noodles?" When he thought about having to face David every day, take orders from him, and depend on him for food, he felt pathetic.
Who was David to put on a show in front of him? A weak loser like him, how could he have a woman like Sally? Why? Just because he stockpiled some food and had a house? So what? In the current world, even the law no longer exists, and property deeds are just pieces of paper.
The supplies in that house, and Sally, who said that everything should belong to David? In an instant, Angus felt that he understood everything. He was excited, and countless ideas flooded his mind. He carefully considered these bold ideas and formed a plan in his mind.
Angus sent a friend request to Brother Knife and added a message: "Hello, Brother Knife. I have some important information to disclose to you." After successfully sending it, Angus sat up on the bed, grabbed the two remaining buckets of instant noodles from the table, and walked out of the bedroom.He couldn't wait to shout: "Is Zoe here?"
Angus searched the room and found Zoe lying in another bedroom, instantly relieved. Zoe was an essential part of his upcoming plans, and if she ran away, his plans would be ruined. Zoe sat up on the bed and looked at Angus, a hint of nervousness in her eyes. Angus sat beside Zoe, wearing an apologetic expression, and gently embraced her. "Zoe, I'm sorry for this morning. I didn't mean to do it. I was in a terrible mood at that time, and I couldn't control myself. I truly regret it now that I've calmed down." Zoe was somewhat surprised. She didn't expect Angus to come and apologize to her.
Angus looked at Zoe earnestly. "Can you forgive me? I promise I won't do it again in the future."
Zoe was deeply moved. "Well, I know you didn't mean it."
Seeing Zoe easily forgiving him, Angus immediately smiled. But soon, his smile froze on his face when he noticed several pieces of bread on Zoe's bedside table. "Where did this bread come from?" His expression immediately turned sour.
"It... it was given to me by David. I ate two, and the rest is for you," Zoe replied.
A shade of darkness flashed in Angus' eyes, but he quickly forced out another smile and gently caressed Zoe's head. "Why keep it for me? You should eat it yourself. It's my fault for not being capable enough and letting you go hungry. Don't worry, I won't let you starve again."
Zoe was overwhelmed by Angus' gesture. She didn't understand why Angus suddenly had a change in character, but she speculated that perhaps Angus had matured through the events of the past two days. Looking at the man before her, who made promises to her, Zoe's heart was filled with happiness and joy. She was grateful that she had chosen to stay by Angus' side.
"Are you hungry? I'll go make instant noodles for you," Angus fondly touched her head and headed to the kitchen with a bucket of instant noodles. As Angus turned away, his face instantly became incredibly dark.
"Damn you, David! I haven't even laid , and yet you managed to seduce my woman. It seems like you really think highly of yourself, huh?" Angus seethed with anger, his fist clenched tightly, veins bulging. However, he quickly came to his senses.
"Forget it, I just plan to take advantage of this bitch." Next, Angus proceeded to make instant noodles for Zoe, followed by giving her a shoulder and back massage, portraying himself as a good man. After Zoe finished eating the instant noodles, Angus carried her to the bed.
In the midst of Zoe's shy gaze, Angus removed her clothing. Suddenly, Angus pulled out a few ropes and a roll of duct tape. "Darling, how about we play something exciting today?" he said, preparing to tie Zoe's hands with the ropes.
Initially, Zoe had some resistance, but considering how good Angus had been to her earlier, she hesitated. "Okay, but just this once," she reluctantly agreed.
Soon enough, Angus had tied Zoe's hands and feet with ropes, and he sealed her mouth with duct tape. Just as he finished securing Zoe's limbs, his expression immediately changed, and the tenderness in his eyes vanished. He slapped Zoe across the face with a loud smack. "Fuck you, you damn bitch, seducing other men behind my back."
"Waaah!" Zoe suddenly realized something was seriously wrong. She started struggling violently, but her hands and feet were bound, leaving her with no means to resist.
Angus grabbed her by the throat and delivered two punches. "So, you enjoy seducing men, huh? Later, I'll make sure you have a damn good time."
