My ability pool is superior to others

Chapter 188 Chaotic Block
The houses on this side of the river were obviously older, and not many people noticed Lu Bai who had just climbed out of the river.

This is good news.

Lu Bai gently twisted his trouser leg, and a large amount of river water seeped out.

but……

That's it.

He gave up the idea of ​​drying his clothes first and turned into the alley like a homeless person.

There are quite a few quiet shops in the streets and alleys that extend in all directions.

Passing by a clothing store that focused on personal customization, Lu Bai immediately turned in.

The shop owner was lying on a bench reading a newspaper when he heard some strange dripping sounds and was about to look up.

However, Lu Bai's movements were much faster than the speed at which the owner raised his head.

He took a big step and jumped behind the shop owner, striking him on the back of the head with his hand.

The unfortunate shop owner fainted on the spot without even a groan.

"Still a flat head."

Lu Bai complained silently, then turned around and started picking out clothes that would fit him.

……

Lu Bai held the owner's head and shook him awake.

Seeing the other party open his eyes dazedly, he showed his usual kind smile.

"Hello."

"!"

The shop owner was so frightened that he leaned back subconsciously, and the back of his head almost hit the floor again. Fortunately, Lu Bai pulled him back in time.

"You, don't, boss, I'm just a small business."

"Okay, okay, don't be nervous."

Lu Bai touched the owner's head and said softly, "I just want to ask you a few questions."

The shop owner swallowed twice tremblingly and dared not speak.

Seeing the other party's reaction, Lu Bai sighed in his heart and said.

"Forget it. If I want to get information, where should I go?"

"Uh, Chi...Chikan Bay, everyone says there are a lot of information dealers in that area."

Although he was knocked unconscious by Lu Bai at the beginning, this gentle attitude somewhat calmed the owner's panic.

"good."

Lu Bai nodded approvingly, stood up and added: "You'd better pretend that you haven't seen me. If I find out that you have told anyone what happened today, I will find you and kill your entire family."

The shop owner shuddered. Seeing Lu Bai turning to leave, he whispered a reminder for some unknown reason: "If you want to go to Chikan Bay, be careful. I heard that area is very chaotic and the police don't care."

Hearing this reminder, Lu Bai waved his hand without looking back.

"Thanks."

……

Walk out of the alley.

You can see the bustling crowds and the constant flow of vehicles on the streets.

There are also many tall buildings, but they are very close to each other.

Signs of various sizes are hung at the bottom of the tall buildings, creating a dazzling array of sights at a glance.

But there are actually only a few high-rise buildings like this. Most of them are Tang-style buildings of varying ages and heights, which are closely connected with the streets, as if telling about the past.

The new clothes that Lu Bai changed into did not seem out of place with the surrounding environment.

The prison guard uniforms and prisoner uniforms he had taken off were put into a black plastic bag in his hand.

If nothing unexpected happens, once the prison realizes what's going on, they will definitely look for him everywhere.

Such clues that are too specific need to be handled properly.

After standing at the entrance of the alley and observing for a while, Lu Bai walked away.

I think this death match will not end in a short time, so I have to find a place to stay first.

After all, he is now wanted, so there is no need to consider staying in a hotel.

It's better to go to some remote or chaotic neighborhoods. Yes, that's right.

For example, Chikan Bay mentioned by the clothing store owner.

This place is not hard to find.

Following the instructions on the road signs, Lu Bai easily found the neighborhood called Chikan Bay.

On his way here, he didn't meet any death fighters with the title above their heads.

However, after walking along the way, I basically had a general impression of the entire city.

If you want to find a similar comparison, it is a bit similar to Hong Kong Island in the 1970s and 1980s.

And the Chikan Bay in front of us... is a bit counterintuitive.

Because this so-called mixed crowd, a neighborhood that even the police don't care about, is not a remote place, but is located in the center of the city.

But there are no tall buildings standing in rows, instead there are old tenement buildings one after another.

The wires exposed on the outside of the wall are tangled like balls of wool.

The alleys are crisscrossed like a maze, making it impossible to find a way out.

But we can't completely regard it as a slum.

Because all kinds of black industries are exposed in this place without even a show.

Illegal businesses such as casinos and red-light districts even have neon signs hung outside their stores.

The government, the police, the law seem unable to reach the boundaries here.

The whole block gives people the feeling of one word - chaos!

There is no doubt that this neighborhood called Chikan Bay can be said to be quite dangerous.

You know, Lu Bai had just come out of prison, and he was sure that there were a large number of inhuman strongmen in the government departments of this world.

A neighborhood like Chikanwan, which is obviously illegal and located in the city center, was able to be preserved.

There is only one possibility, that is, there exists a force that is strong enough to counter the government's violent organs. At the very least, the government will have to pay a huge price to eliminate it.

Until you figure it out, it's better to keep a low profile.

"Hello? You look a little unfamiliar, my friend. Are you new here?"

A young man with green hair squatted on the side of the road and waved at Lu Bai: "Come over here and chat with me."

"Yes, it's my first time."

Lu Bai nodded and walked obediently to the green-haired young man.

The green-haired young man raised his hand and pressed it down, cursing.

"Lower your head, lower your head, damn it, do you want me to hold my head up when talking to you?"

In fact, this cannot be said to be the green-haired young man being too arrogant. It is purely Lu Bai's temperament under normal circumstances, which always gives people the illusion that he is harmless.

The more this happens, the more likely you are to be targeted by thugs and extorted.

Lu Bai squatted down obediently and kept himself at the same height as the green-haired young man.

"What's your name?"

"Lü Bai."

"Xiao Bai, right? Don't say your brother Xiao Ma doesn't take care of you. People like you won't survive the next day in Chikan Bay."

"Is that so?"

"Do you think I'm trying to scare you? Chikan Bay is not a place for a good student like you to come."

"What should I do?"

The green-haired young man raised his thumb and poked himself: "How about this, I allow you to hang out with me. If you encounter any problems, report your name as Brother Xiao Ma."

Lu Bai unconsciously showed a kind smile: "That's great."

"But, my name is not used in vain."

The green-haired young man spread out his right hand and rubbed his index finger and thumb a few times.

But Lu Bai didn't react at all, which made the green-haired young man a little unhappy.

He threatened in a deep voice: "Xiao Bai, do you think the protection fee can fly into my hands by itself?"
