"Smack!"
At the Sump, the residents of Hope Community were the first to see the smiling face signal flares in the Dance Hall.
"Is today some kind of day to celebrate? These fireworks are really beautiful!"
Everyone could tell at a glance that the blue-haired madman made those fireworks, but so what?
Blue-haired Madman is terrifying as an enemy, but if he's one of their own, that's a different story. Besides, Hope Community is the most prosperous community in Zaun, adjacent to the Lian Hua Gang, and they often see Blue-haired Madman in this community.
Sometimes she was accompanied by a young, blond-haired girl; sometimes by Wei, a red-haired the Sump enforcement officer; and sometimes by Mr. Li Ke, the new leader whom everyone respected.
Putting aside those rumors, she's just a lovely and pretty young woman.
Therefore, when they saw the smiling firework, no one felt nervous or scared.
"Wait a minute. There doesn't seem to be anything worth celebrating today, does there?"
"It looks really good, those braids are so well done. I just don't know if we'll make it to the Mid-level Plaza to watch the fireworks now."
"Wait, this doesn't look like fireworks. It looks more like a signal flare to me."
Someone uttered a sentence that sounded like a signal flare, and then the crowd erupted in an uproar, with a group of people immediately running towards the Lian Hua Gang's stronghold.
During this period, Zaun very peaceful, Hope Community no longer needed to send people to patrol every day, because no one dared to cause trouble near the Lian Hua Gang. Wei's violence was ingrained in her bones. Those who caused trouble and were caught by Wei were either beaten up and made to do volunteer work in the community, or had their arms and legs broken and were thrown out.
There's no need for Zaun to talk about laws and rules now, because Li Ke's words are the rules.
Soon, the members of the Lian Hua Gang learned of this, and then the entire Lian Hua Gang sprang into action.
"Quick, quick, put on your gear!"
"Manzu, go tell the Boss what happened. I'll take a group of men to guard the bridge! That was Jinx's signal flare; it's definitely Piltover people coming!"
"Watch out!"
"Don't worry about me at all! I'm not the same person I used to be." Malson smiled, then waved his hand, leading dozens of people onto the wheeled vehicles made by Ekko, which functioned perfectly in the complex terrain of Zaun.
He ran at top speed toward the Dance Hall, Malson's smile fading, his expression gradually hardening.
When Li Ke learned about this, he and Jinx were helping Isha learn to read and write.
Hearing the signal flare go off in the Dance Hall and smiley face fireworks appear in the sky above Zaun, Li Ke picked up the clothes beside him without saying a word, put them on, and then turned around.
Jinx reached out and tugged at his sleeve, her small face looking earnestly at Li Ke, her alluring lips parting as she uttered, "Take me with you."
"You," Li Ke looked at Jinx.
A pleading glint flashed in Jinx's eyes. She tightened her grip on Li Ke 'Li Ke clothes, her long, slender fingers turning blue at the knuckles.
Of course she'll listen to Li Ke. If Li Ke doesn't let her go, she'll stay put.
However, she hoped that she could go with Li Ke.
Then, while Jinx was feeling anxious and uneasy, Li Ke placed his hand on her head.
Rick vigorously rubbed Jinx's head, back and forth, making Li Ke thick blue hair a mess. Then, Li Ke flicked Jinx's forehead with his finger and said irritably:
"What nonsense are you spouting? Hurry up and grab your weapons and come with me. Isn't it only right that we take you with us?"
"!"
Jinx's eyes lit up instantly. She stood on tiptoe and kissed Li Ke on the chin, then jumped up and turned around. With her hands on her hips, Jinx looked at Isha and laughed loudly, "Ha, Isha, let's go!"
"Eek!" Isha threw the book down; she had long since lost interest in reading!
The little one nimbly got up, quickly put on her hat, and then started rummaging through drawers and cabinets, Isha out a bunch of things that made Li Ke's mouth twitch.
Bombs, pistols, and assembled rifles.
No, what exactly did Jinx teach Isha in private?
Li Ke had no objection to Jinx bringing Isha along, because Jinx was bringing Isha to give an answer to Jinx from before.
Care and protection are not always good; sometimes, recognition is more important.
Li Ke carried Isha, with Jinx clinging to his neck behind him, and quickly went out the door, just in time to catch Vi and Vander coming out as well.
Looking at Li Ke's outfit, Wei raised an eyebrow, whistled, and said, "Hey, Li Ke, are you taking your family on a spring outing?"
"Shut up, Vi!" Jinx made a face at Vi.
Vander, with a solemn expression, asked, "Has it been them who attacked?"
"It should be. That flare was a level one alarm. Let's go, Vander, we need to get there quickly," Li Ke nodded and said.
Li Ke led his men out of the house to the Lian Hua Gang's stronghold. Scar had already brought the Wildfire Gang members, and they were all there, including Ekko.
When they saw Li Ke come out, they all looked at Li Ke.
Li Ke looked at Ekko and said, "Get me a few frisbees."
Ekko quickly waved, and then several Wildfire Gang members handed over their flying boards.
Li Ke handed the flyboard to Jinx and Vi, then looked at Vander and frowned. "Vander, you run up there yourself, use all your strength."
"Shall we set off now?" Vander said after thinking for a moment.
Li Ke nodded.
"Wait, Vander, remember to inform Silco on the way and tell him to send his men over as soon as possible."
"If it really is Piltover attacking, then we'll take advantage of the situation and attack them in return!"
Just as Vander landed on all fours, ready to run, Li Ke stopped him and said in a deep voice, "Since they're being so ungrateful, then we won't hold back either."
Upon hearing this, Vander smiled and said, "Good!"
After saying that, he landed on all fours and disappeared into the Lian Hua Gang's stronghold as a blur.
Li Ke handed Isha to Jinx, looking at her and asking, "Do you know how to use it?"
"Of course." Jinx puffed out her small chest.
Vi looked at Isha and frowned. "Jinx, she's too young. Do you want her to go to a place like that?"
"I'm her older sister, I'm telling you, my sister, can you stop meddling in other people's business? If you have time to worry about me, you should be thinking about how to get rid of your tattoos. You're so stupid. Can't you just get a few tattoos if you like? Real tattoos, don't they hurt?" Jinx rolled her eyes and complained after hearing Vi's words. Then, she ignored Vi and bent down to coax Isha.
Isha hugged Jinx's leg, looked at Vi, and snorted coldly.
In the past, Li Ke would probably have discussed Jinx's thoughts with Vi, pointing out where she had gone wrong in her previous actions, but now, he doesn't have that time.
Li Ke placed the flyboard under his feet and raised his left hand high.
"Zaunite!"
"Piltover has attacked. They still think Zaun is the Zaun they used to be. Well, we should show them what kind of consequences their arrogance will bring!"
"Anyone who's not afraid to die, follow me!"
"Let them see the power of the Zaunite!"
Li Ke tied the belt around his waist and soared into the sky on the jib.
Scar put on his mask, slung his spear over his shoulder, and roared, "Wildfire Gang, move out!"
Wearing a pair of blue and pink gauntlets made for her by Jinx, one with a cat pattern and the other with a dog pattern, Vi grinned as she leaped into the air on a flying board, followed by a group of Lian Hua Gang members.
Li Ke is the Boss of the entire Zaun, and Wei is the Big Sister in the hearts of all the Lian Hua Gang members.
Wei is loyal, capable in combat, and possesses strong leadership qualities.
She doesn't even need to say anything; people will follow her.
Above Hope Community, residents excitedly looked up at the sky filled with green lights—the glow of Wildfire Gang's flying boards—as hundreds of Zaunite flew towards the Dance Hall.
This scene.
"Fuck Piltover!"
"Damn it, I want to go too!"
"Damn it, even if I die, it's worth it. I'd rather die for the future of our descendants!"
"I want to help, I absolutely have to! Even the kids are participating, what are we adults doing hiding behind!"
"Zaunite, unite!"
At a shout from who-knows-who, the Zaunite raised their arms and cheered. They quickly returned home, grabbed any weapons they could find, and rushed out of the community.
Fuck Piltover
Fuck Piltover people,
Screw jurisdiction
Piltover, you old man from Zaun,
It's here!
