Tomb Raider: Nine Gates Let Me Be the Group’s Pet

Chapter 17: Young Encounter (Part )

Adjutant Zhang remembered that when he was a child, he had not grown up yet, was thin and frail, had poor physical fitness, and because he was fair-skinned, he was always insulted and bullied by children of the same tribe.

"Zhang Baishan! What are you doing? Huh?"

"It's these people again. I've been hiding in the corner reading quietly, why are they still bothering me?" Adjutant Zhang didn't know why these people were so boring.

"If you can't afford to offend me, can't you just hide away from me..." The young adjutant Zhang thought so and ran away.

But he couldn't outrun the people chasing him and was forced to the side of a tree in the corner of the yard, with nowhere to hide.

"You're going to run? Hahahahahahahaha, or are you planning to climb up a tree and hide? I think you can't even climb a tree!" The people on the opposite side saw that he could only lean against the tree trunk while holding the book and didn't know what to do, so they all laughed.

"I...I..." He really didn't know what to do. He knew that he would be beaten again if they caught up with him...

Sure enough, the person on the opposite side saw that he was unable to resist, so he quickly rushed forward and started punching and kicking him, and even tore his book.

He could only hold his head with his hands to try to protect himself, and blamed himself in his heart for being so weak. All he could think about was how to explain his injuries to his elders at home when he returned.

Boom————

"Hiss—Who is it?" A stone was thrown at the boy who was leading the bullying.

thump -- thump -- thump --

Immediately afterwards, several more stones hit the heads of the teenagers who were still punching and kicking others.

Now all the boys stopped what they were doing and turned around to look for who had thrown the stone at them.

"Don't look anymore, I'm upstairs." The people below looked up at the roof in the yard.

Young Zhang Zixi was sitting on it, throwing stones up and down in her hands.

She had planned to sneak onto the kitchen roof when it was late at night and no one was around, and take away the delicious fried wings for dinner. However, she had never expected to see a group of people making a lot of noise below as soon as she reached the roof.

She almost thought she was discovered...

The people below saw a figure jumping down from the roof and landing steadily on the ground. The angry teenagers immediately went forward to fight.

But they didn't expect Zhang Zixi to easily pass them and walk to the young adjutant Zhang to ask about his injuries. "Are you okay?"

"No... I... am fine..." Seeing that he was saved, he dared to slowly take his hands off his head and secretly looked at Zhang Zixi.

Zhang Zhixi took him up and was about to take him to her room, saying, "Come with me, I'll apply medicine on you."

As Zhang Zixi was about to walk out of the courtyard gate, she turned back and stared at the violent teenagers fiercely and said, "Next time if you dare to bully others, just wait for me."

"Does it hurt?"

Zhang Zixi applied the medicine as gently as possible, then looked at him grimacing in pain and asked worriedly.

"No...it doesn't hurt...it doesn't hurt..." He turned his head and saw a chubby little face only a few centimeters away from him. He leaned back in fright.

"You're lying! Humph!" Zhang Zixi clearly saw that his facial features were twisted in pain, but he pretended to be relaxed. She felt that she had saved him, but he was not sincere to her. She was angry.

"I don't...hiss——" He was about to raise his hand to explain that it was not like that, because compared to the past, the pain he suffered today was really much less. But he didn't expect that the wound would be moved and hurt again.
