Bulma was starting to regret things.
If she'd known she'd run into bandits right after leaving school, she should've listened to Sun Mo back when they gathered the Dragon Balls—forget eternal youth, wishing to be strong enough to tank bullets would've been way better...
But just as Bulma was wallowing in regret, the Bandit Leader snapped, "We're in the middle of a robbery here. Get professional! With money, what woman can't you get? Just grab her capsule and let's move."
"Yes, boss!"
Hearing the Bandit Leader say they'd leave once they had the capsule, Bulma actually breathed a sigh of relief and quickly handed it over.
"Here—take the capsule, just don't hurt us..."
"Don't worry, little girl. We're pros at this!"
The Bandit Henchman took the capsule and lit up when he saw it was a House Capsule.
"Boss, there's a whole house in here!"
The Bandit Leader laughed. "Haha, we hit the jackpot. Let's get out of here!"
They pocketed the capsule, swiped Bulma's Flying Motorcycle, and sped off on it together.
Bulma, Amy, and the others had just started to relax when police sirens blared around them.
The next second, the two bandits were back.
Two dark gun muzzles pressed against Bulma and her group.
The students were all stunned.
As the sirens drew closer, a crowd of Police Officers surrounded them.
The bandits kept their eyes on the cops and shouted, "Clear us a path, or we'll kill the hostages!"
From among the Police Officers, Amy's boyfriend suddenly pushed his way out and yelled, "How dare you threaten the police! Drop your weapons and surrender immediately!"
Amy saw him and gasped. "John, you called the cops?"
John quickly reassured her, "Don't worry, Amy. My uncle is a Police Officer. I'll find a way to save you!"
Even with a gun to her head, Amy couldn't help but curse.
"I swear to god, you absolute idiot! Never mind you ditching me and running off—they were about to let us go, and you had to come back and trap us here!"
The other students glared at John, murder in their eyes.
John stood there, lost.
"So I went to call the cops, and that's wrong?"
The Police Officer beside him grabbed a megaphone and boomed, "Don't resist needlessly! Put down the hostages and we'll go easy on you!"
The Bandit Leader fired a shot into the air. Bulma and the students all ducked, covering their ears.
The Bandit Leader roared, "Cut the crap! I'll count to ten. If you haven't cleared out by then, I start killing!"
"One, two, three..."
The death countdown began, but nothing moved.
Just then, a wooden log shot down from the sky and slammed diagonally into the road.
Sun Mo rolled and landed smoothly on his feet.
Everyone stared at him in shock.
"Did he just fly in on a log?"
What a flashy way to travel.
Sun Mo looked around and quickly spotted Bulma.
"Bulma, I've been waiting at your place forever. What are you doing? Why aren't you home yet?"
But as the words left his mouth, he noticed her classmates, the cops, and the masked men, and froze.
It hit him—Bulma was being robbed.
The Bandit Leader, spooked by Sun Mo's Log-Riding Flight entrance, immediately pressed his gun to Amy's temple and threatened him.
"You, put your hands up nice and easy, or I won't go easy on you!!"
Sun Mo said flatly, "Sorry, I'm not familiar with her."
The Boss was taken aback.
Damn, this guy's not a cop—he's not threatened at all...
But the Bandit Henchman worried that Sun Mo's interference would mess up their escape.
While the Boss was talking to him, he secretly aimed at Sun Mo and pulled the trigger.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
Three shots in a row.
The three gunshots cracked almost simultaneously, and the crowd screamed, clutching their heads.
But when they looked, the bloody scene they'd expected never came.
Everyone turned to Sun Mo. He opened his palm, and three steaming bullets clattered to the ground.
Time seemed to freeze.
The bandits' eyes went wide, their gun hands frozen midair.
Bulma's classmates were collectively petrified, forgetting even to breathe.
The police officers gaped, their next moves forgotten.
The Police Officer swallowed hard.
"C-catch bullets with bare hands?"
"Haven't seen a master this strong in a long time!"
Sun Mo's figure flickered and vanished. The next moment, both bandits screamed and collapsed.
Their two pistols were twisted into pretzels by Sun Mo's bare hands, then tossed casually to the ground.
The air went silent again.
Then, a scream shattered the stillness.
Amy shouted, "I remember now! You—you're Bulma's boyfriend!"
The police snapped into action, cuffing the two knocked-out bandits.
Safe now, the classmates swarmed around, their earlier fear replaced by sheer shock and excitement.
"Bulma! Your boyfriend's this amazing?!"
"Yeah, a Martial Artist who can catch bullets barehanded! That's incredible!"
"Sorry, I take back what I said earlier—I apologize to all Martial Artists."
"That move just now was ten thousand times cooler than any movie kung fu star!"
Amy sized up Sun Mo with a lingering gaze, then looked at Bulma with a sour expression.
"Bulma, I think I get why you didn't want him coming to school!"
"You're afraid he'll get stolen, aren't you?"
Bulma smirked, her face full of pride and vanity.
"As if!
A gorgeous, gentle genius girl like me isn't scared of anyone stealing him away!"
Just then, John pushed through, his face full of shame, reaching for Amy's hand.
"Amy, I'm sorry!
I pushed you away because I was scared!
But I did go find the cops to save you later...
I was wrong just now—can you forgive me?"
Amy yanked her hand away, furious. "John, from the moment you abandoned me and ran off, we're done!"
With that, she looked at Sun Mo, then back at Bulma.
"Bulma, I'm not losing to you. I'm going to find a Martial Artist boyfriend too!"
The crowd was quickly evacuated, and the bandits were taken away.
Bulma hopped onto her Flying Motorcycle and took off with Sun Mo.
As she rode, she said, "This time, it's thanks to you coming to find me—otherwise, I'd have been in real danger!"
Sun Mo said indifferently, "It doesn't matter. Even without me, you wouldn't have been in danger..."
Bulma replied, "How is that possible?
Just now, you don't know how dangerous it was—the guns were aimed right at us, I was almost in tears..."
As she spoke, a shy expression crept onto Bulma's face.
"Anyway, you saved me this time. Go on, tell me what reward you want—I can give you anything this time, you know..."
Sun Mo's face lit up. "Your dad called and said the Gravity Chamber's already built.
So, I was thinking I'd skip hanging out with you for a couple of days and let me go in the Gravity Chamber for a good experience..."
Bulma whipped her head around, glaring fiercely at Sun Mo.
"Sun Mo!!"
Sun Mo felt the murderous aura radiating from Bulma and got a little nervous.
"What's wrong?"
Bulma asked, word by word: "You bastard, are you dating me just for the Gravity Chamber?"
